My fifteenth spring had come.
I raised my big butt from the seat of carriage and set foot on the royal castle with my cousin.
For about a year from now, I would stay in the castle. Ryuze would stay in the castle too for a while, but he said that he would return to our territory after he finished his business.
It was my first time entering the castle for about a year, but my body had changed from before.
[H, come on.]
This body was heavy, just a bit of movement was troublesome.
I was out of breath when I reached the top of the long stairway leading to the entrance of the castle.
(It's so difficult, just to climb the stairs…)
Yes, I had become fat again in this half a year!
The cause was due to stress because of my engagement or going to the capital city. Anyhow, Britney's bad habit of unconsciously eating food had been resurrected!
I was self-conceited since I became thin, but the number of boot camps had decreased.
(But, even though I didn't eat that much, I became fat in an instant…! So fearful, Britney's body!)
When my bodyweight rebounded, I was 10 kilograms heavier now.
Besides, my body was short, so my chubby body stood up considerably.
When it was nearly time to go to the castle, I was in panic and could not diet in time, so I had to depart with such a figure.
(Uu, even though it's my own fault, I'm so depressed.)
With heavy footsteps, we headed to the upper floors, Prince Marlow and Angela had gathered together to greet my cousin and I.
There was no bad atmosphere between both of them. On the contrary, they seemed to have good relationship now.
[I've been waiting, Ryuze, Britney! You both seem healthy!]
While laughing cheerfully, the crown prince approached us.
Angela followed behind her brother with an air of composure while hiding her mouth with her folding fan… but her eyes seemed puzzled when she looked at me.
[I am sorry to call you so suddenly, but I'm pleased to meet you, Ryuze.]
[No, I'm glad to see Your Highness after a long time.]
[There are a lot of things I want to talk about. First of all, let's go to my room. Why don't we talk about work?]
[Ee, well then… by your words.]
When he heard Ryuze's reply, the prince turned towards his sister.
[Angela, can I ask you to guide Britney?]
[Of course I can, onii-sama! Come, Britney, I'll show you to your room!]
[Then I'll leave it to you. Britney, let's talk afterwards.]
After I bowed my head to the crown prince, Angela pulled my arm.
On the way, the kuroko maids gathered one by one, and the number of people accompanying us increased.
[This way!]
The princess who was in high spirits guided me to the guest rooms at the upper floor, and I did my best to follow her.
Behind the heavy doors that was wide open, it was a room decorated with light pink cloth with ruffles.
The curtains, around the bed, the carpet… it was a totally pink room.
(Is this Angela's preferences?)
Glancing at Angela's proud face, the maid behind her nodded in assent.
Apparently, what I had thought was transmitted to them.
[Eeto… I am very happy that Your Highness had prepared a room for me.]
[Hohoho. You know that I prepared this?]
[Somehow.]
Actually, I saw her fully pink bedroom the day she collapsed, but she didn't know about it.
It seemed that Prince Marlow didn't tell her, so I didn't bother to say it.
[By the way, why is your body like that?]
Upon arriving at the room, Angela stopped and straightly asked about my body.
[Gu, gufufu…]
[When I saw you last year, your figure was normal. How can it became so fat in one year? In such a situation, I will be in trouble.]
[E…?]
While blinking due to Angela's surprising words, she gazed sharply at me.
[Britney, listen carefully.]
[…Yes.]
[This is an order. Lose your weight and return to your body weight last year!]
[Wh, why!?]
I was stunned and looked at her.
(Why does Angela want me to be thin?)
In the manga, with the fat Britney at her side, she could fulfill her self-esteem.
However she wanted me to lose weight… such a mystery.
[Are, do you not understand my order?]
I raised my face since Angela's words were as if she could read my mind.
[I will tell you. I am gradually establishing my position in the castle for the last half a year. Thanks to your advice last year, I gained more confidence in myself than I ever have. My reputation from the surroundings is also gradually getting better. Nevertheless… although I'm using your family's cosmetic products extensively, since there are no other young ladies here, there is no one to show off to-!!]
[Your, Your Highness!?]
Although I was confused by the princess' words, her elegant bearing immediately returned and turned her eyes toward me.
[By the recommendation of onii-sama, I have interacted with wives of aristocrats. So, since everyone was interested in my cosmetics, I introduced your products.]
[Thank you so much.]
[It's not the time to thank me! They told me that they wanted to be introduced to you by all means. So I promised to bring you to participate in a large tea party two months later!]
[E, I never heard of it before though…]
[I said it just now.]
How irresponsible.
[Anyway, if I bring the current you to such a place, I'll be a laughing stock.]
[Haa…]
For no special reason, I was awfully insulted.
[That is why, you have to get thin by that day by all means!]
Angela's sharp violet eyes contained powerful light.
(As soon as I arrived at the castle, I got into trouble-!)
