Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 30

“A, ano, Ricardo?”

I raised a voice of embarrassment to my former fiancé who was forcibly dragging me with him.

After hearing his name called Ricardo stopped in a place with few people and opened his mouth.

“Omae… what horrible things were you allowing them to say to you?” (TLN: Omae = rude/forceful way to say “you.” Ricardo often uses Omae.)

He’s probably talking about the man from before. However, that doesn’t mean that I was going to take that abuse silently.

“You butted in before I was able to talk back.”

“… I see.”

“But, thank you for protecting me. I didn’t have any allies in that place, so you saved me. Before I knew it Ryuze-oniisama was a little ways separated from me and men I didn’t know had surrounded me and started to abuse me. What a harsh situation…”

Although I’ve become somewhat resistant to the pig treatment, I don’t want to be one-sidedly spoken ill of.

“I think the other side already knew of you.”

At Ricardo’s words, I inclined my neck which had become a little thinner than before.

“… What do you mean?”

“That guy was the eldest son of Viscount Dan… do you follow me?”

I felt dejected hearing that name.

It was a very familiar one.

“… It’s my first time meeting him, but that’s the son of the house my father eloped with.” (TLN: Britney’s step-brother.)

I remembered a story I heard during my childhood… It seems my father’s elopement partner was the mother of that quarrelsome man from before.

Honestly, it makes me want to ask what he’s jealous of.

“Since your figure stands out, it seems he decided to quarrel with you there. I hear that your father and his second wife’s relationship isn’t going smoothly.”

Nevertheless, if you complain to his daughter, me, I will be troubled.

“I will start looking into the circumstances of other houses.”

“I heard of it by chance. Nevertheless if you come to a place like this, you need to research the circumstances of the other houses a little more. Ryuze is an expert at this, so you should ask him.”

“I, is that so… Un, I’ll do my best.”

Certainly, I had a feeling Ryuze knows a lot. I don’t want to make an excessive amount of enemies.

“Beyond that… Since you have lost both your parents, you probably don’t need to worry too much about the curious stares you get.”

Suddenly looking to the side, Ricardo said that with a brusque tone.

What’s this? Is this his way of encouraging me?

“Etto… Thank you.”

With a bright red face, I thanked my former fiancé once.

After all, Ricardo appears to have a shy personality.

(But, compared to when I was told “I hate you,” this is a positive change… Good boy~.)

The other side may have originally hated me, but now I see him in a similar light as Ryan and Maria.

After that I accompanied my cousin Ryuze and exchanged greetings with the other participants.

(Onii-sama, I wish you moved a little earlier. Had you done so, I wouldn’t have gotten involved with a strange guy.)

Ricardo had promptly reported the abuse from the viscount’s son to Ryuze. I saw a terrifying aura…

As I was thinking that and walking around with Ryuze, the entire venue suddenly fell into commotion. The crown prince Marlow arrived.

And, behind him, with straight, perfectly done-up hair and wearing frilly deep pink clothing…

(She’s here! Angela’s here!)

The shoujo manga’s villainess arrived.

It’s my first time seeing her since arriving in this world, but comparing her to crown prince Marlow, she has a considerably plain face.

Each part was somewhat small, and she wasn’t very tall. Because her hair is the same pale blond as the crown prince’s, the differences between them become all the more striking.

(This is… unpleasant I suppose.)

Every time there’s an event, if she is compared like this to her beautiful older brother the crown prince, her personality will become more and more warped. This will occur even more so once her younger sister of the same sex Merrill arrives.

I as well when going around with Ryuze was looked at with eyes like “she’s Ryuze’s cousin and yet…” I received a little shock.

As part of the royal family, I have no doubt she is under a lot of stress being exposed to the eyes of people on a daily basis.

(… I mean, I sympathize with Angela. However, the princess who makes all her maids Kuroko is not normal!)

Moreover, just like Nora with her dress, her dark pink dress does not suit her at all!

In Angela’s case, the dress is too glamorous and showy that her existence itself was drowned out. Her current state is a perfect example of the clothes wearing her, rather than her wearing the clothes.

Angela was primly standing behind the crown prince Marlow, but most of the guest’s eyes were firmly concentrated on her older brother the prince.

Her violet eyes held a weak presence, and were merely directed forwards without showing any emotion.

Angela is here! It seems she’s had a hard life, getting compared to her older brother since she was born. Poor girl, I hope Britney can do something for her (without going down the destruction path).

Also, Happy 2018, everyone!
