Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 60

[What to do, Britney? It seems that she's looking for you.]

Nora lowly whispered so to me, but I decided to avoid it.

Anyway, I would receive a summon later.

[I'm going to greet His Highness Prince Marlow first. If I get caught by the princess, I may not get released.]

While saying such, I approached the person wearing frog mask to greet him.

As I thought, he's the crown prince.

Weaving my way between people, I got close to him with Nora.

When I came near the crown prince to give my greetings, Ricardo noticed me first. I was walking while talking with Nora, so perhaps he knew it from my voice.

[Britney and Miss Nora right?]

[Un. You're Ricardo are you not? Your squirrel mask is cute.]

[Don't say that… since the masks are distributed randomly, this is not my preference.]

While talking to Ricardo, Prince Marlow also reacted.

[Britney? You're really Britney! Long time no see, I wanted to meet you!]

[Yes, it's been a long time, Your Highness. You seem healthy as usual.]

[Aa, I'm glad you came! What do you think of the masks? I designed everything myself.]

[Truly, Your Highness has excellent taste in arts.]

I thought that the designing of the masks was skillful enough to make craftsmen embarrassed.

He seemed to see no point in talking about my figure.

[Today, even though it's a masked party, it's a carefree gathering held at noon. It's been explained that it's not particularly difficult and it's informal.]

[Your Highness, why do you choose the frog mask?]

[N, I think it's cute? I think that its round eyes are satisfactory workmanship.]

[…E, ee, that's true.]

[I think that Britney's mask is also charming. While Ricardo's mask resemble himself.]

Certainly, Ricardo was an upright and sweet person… though the person in question rejected that line of thought.

[Which, which part of me resemble a squirrel…!?]

[That right there, Ricardo. That is also your strength, you can be proud of it.]

Ricardo couldn't argue against the crown prince's words. His Highness the crown prince had a distinctive sensibility, but apart from that, he had a charm that naturally attraced people.

[That's right Britney. I heard from Ryuze that you're looking for a fiancé. I want to lend you my help even if it's not much. If you like, will you be my wife?]

While I felt resentment towards my loose-tongued cousin, a bomb was dropped by him.

Fortunately, the surrounding participants seemed to think that it's his usual joke, and he himself did not show any reaction in particular.

[To a countryside lady like me, the load is too heavy, gufufu.]

Here also, I replied with a joke.

(Eh, that's weird. Even though I lost weight, the way I laugh hasn't changed.)

Whether it was because of the power of the original manga or not, I couldn't laugh cutely like "ufufu".

[Hahaha, I thought that if it's someone excellent like Britney then there will be no problem. Maa, let's leave that story for later. I have a job of walking around the venue, so I'll leave you to Ricardo.]

The frog mask wearing crown prince, with his swaying light gold hair, easily left.

[Really, such a my own pace person.]

I agreed with Ricardo's impression. The crown prince Marlow's character was indeed quite peculiar.

[Ricardo, do you get along well with His Highness?]

[Aa. In the past, I was introduced through Ryuze, and we've been getting along since I came to the capital city.]

That felt like a highway towards becoming his follower.

Ricardo would play an active role in the capital city according to the original manga.

TN: Personally I ship Britney with the prince. She deserves to be the queen.
