“Did you hear that rumor? Lady Heather is engaged.”
“I heard. After courting him so fiercely, it seems he has finally accepted her heart.”
“It’s not that. She even threatened to kill herself if she didn’t get engaged to him.”
I don’t know who they are talking about, but to be willing to give up life to win love. It is really a great obsession.
I couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Wow, that’s a lot of tenacity.”
“…Aagh!”
The two young ladies, who were whispering, looked at me in amazement as if their eyes would pop out.
Only then did I realize that my reaction was inappropriate.
Come to think of it, I’m the ‘Irillin Heather’ that they were talking about just now.
At home, I was only called ‘Irillin’, no one called me ‘Lady Heather’, so I didn’t realize that it was me.
By the way, Irillin, you did something I’m not aware of again.
A story about a little girl who is only 13 years old causing incidents that would appear in a drama.
“Lady Heather! How have you been during vacation?”
“It seems your beauty has risen even more while I haven’t met you.”
The two young ladies flattered me, sweating profusely as if they were about to be harmed.
Two months have passed since I possessed this body, but I still can’t adapt.
Children who are at most thirteen years old are using vocabulary like adults who are tired of social life.
If I was going to possess this body, it should have been when <The Crown Prince’s Lover> begins, when I’m my original age of 20. Why did I possess this body at 13 years old?
Since my memory(?) reduced to just one piece of the past. There is not much information about this.
“I decided to spend the rest of my life with the person I loved. I am happy every day, but surely my beauty has not increased as the days go by, right?”
While answering the first and second questions, I believed this must be a response worthy of a thirteen-year-old aristocratic lady, right?
It was good to prepare for conversations with peers ahead of the first day of school at the academy. I thought so, but it seems I was mistaken.
The same expression appeared on the faces of the young ladies, as Irillin’s parents when they asked, ‘Who are you?’
“You’re saying such an obvious thing. The small brains of young children are also quite understandable. That’s why you’ve been whispering about other people since school started.”
Now, this is the reaction you guys were expecting, right?
The expressions of the young ladies, who were still stiff, relaxed. One of them even let out a sigh of relief.
…Obviously, I gritted my teeth and cursed at you, but why are you so relieved!
I wonder how bad Irillin was usually.
“Unlike the young ladies who have plenty of time, I am very busy, as I am going to see my fiancé, whom I love. Enough then.”
My conscience pricked that I had to do this to children, but on the outside, I casually passed the two ladies as if I had no intention of mocking them.
As I was walking, I suddenly saw a large wooden mirror at the end of the hallway.
There was a strange child in the mirror that was supposed to reflect my face.
It was a child with blue hair and blue eyes like an icy lake.
As I moved closer to the mirror, the child shook her hair and gradually closed the distance. When she rolled her eyes, the blue eyes moved as well.
I intentionally turned away from the terribly unfamiliar sight, then opened the door and entered the classroom as per the information I had grasped in advance.
Will we finally meet?
The main characters of <The Crown Prince’s Lover>, the Crown Prince and Vin Ortega.
“…It’s Lady Heather.”
“Why are you here? It isn’t Lady Heather’s next class?”
…Well. The class(?) should be postponed.
After all, I found the classroom.
“What are you going to do after the academy?”
“I have to practice swordsmanship. Can you tell me?”
“I want to see you practicing swordsmanship.”
“…why?”
“Just because. I want to see you.”
This is the scene I saw as soon as I entered the classroom, that I found with much difficulty.
The little ones were frozen in broad daylight, but I suddenly realized.
The two voices I just heard were soft because they hadn’t gone through puberty yet, but they were definitely boys.
Besides
“Tsk.”
I noticed both of them looked at me and frowned at once.
The identity of these two is probably, no, it’s definitely the Crown Prince, the main character of the BL novel <The Crown Prince’s Lover>, and his lover Vin Ortega.
Because at this point, the two of them would be the only ones having such a conversation and hating Irillin.
Because? The answer is quite simple. Irillin has a crush on Vin.
This isn’t just unrequited love, it’s as bad as her personality, so Vin is fed up with Irillin and the prince’s jealousy is at its peak.
‘Criminal Irillin Heather will be put to death!’
To such an extent that later, as the Crown Prince ascended the throne as emperor, He issued such an order.
“Am I seeing a ghost? Why is the person who said she would die, in front of me?”
The silver-haired boy cast a sharp gaze at me with dark blue eyes that seemed to pierce my heart with an ice spear.
It seems that this guy is probably Vin Ortega, the shou1(‘one that plays a passive role’) in this novel.
“Just don’t deal with it.”
Then… this black-haired, red-eyed boy must be the gong2(‘one that plays the leading role’), the crown prince.
His mouth doesn’t seem to pay attention to me, but his eyes burn me to death.
This little boy that still likes chestnuts(?) might end up killing me someday.
I can’t believe it, but the feeling of intimidation flowing through my body is no joke, even though I’m older.
“If you like me, roll over.”
Am I a dog? I didn’t want to accept that but I endured it.
Whatever it is, if I deal with it more, I will still be treated as a dog.
“…”
So I’d rather be silent.
Seeing me just passing by, Vin made a bewildered expression.
I could feel that his eyes didn’t leave me until the Crown Prince called out to him in a low voice as if telling Vin to focus on him.
However, I pretended not to notice it and just to look ahead.
Because if I don’t want to be executed by the crown prince, I have to push Vin away.
The words of a wicked woman in BL novels are determined to be desperate and evil.
In order not to be executed, I must prove that I am not trying to sabotage their relationship.
How can I survive safely and return to the original world?
