BXBX NOVEL Chapter 37
It\'s also a template event that is common in otome games, where the heroine is harassed by the villainess and her entourage, and then finally pushed down the stairs.
However, unlike the game, Anastasia endures without doing such an act, and it seems that Margaret and the other entourages are also holding back.
It\'s unclear why Anastasia & Co. are behaving differently from the game, as Anastasia and her entourage are different from Amy and me, who have reincarnated with the game\'s knowledge. If not, they should try to act better.
However, regardless of the reasons, if this template event is stopped, Anastasia will not have any relation to the wrongdoings.
Also, there is another difference in the game. It\'s the relationship between Anastasia and the Crown Prince. Since the incident at the cultural festival, the relationship between Anastasia and the crown prince has completely collapsed. It has deteriorated to the point where they hardly speak even when they meet face-to-face.
Originally, this relationship breakdown was the result of the villainess being scolded by the Crown Prince after the completion of this template event.
As I\'ve been watching it since summer vacation, Anastasia seems to have left the stage of being obsessed with the Crown Prince.
It would be better to become a queen only in shape if it stabilizes the country. Isn\'t that the only thing in Anastasia\'s head?
She should just throw away a man like him and look for her happiness.
Me thinking that may be the proof that I have formed a bond with Anastasia.
Ah, just to be clear, even if the engagement between Anastasia and the Crown Prince is resolved gracefully, I don\'t think it\'s possible for me to come around.
In the first place, I can\'t even speak to her first. And when the engagement gets called off, will not Anastasia, the daughter of the Duke, get marriage proposals from aristocrats and royalties from other countries, who want to connect with the Ramslet family, one after another?
Unfortunately, there is no room for me to get in there. I think I already understood the reality.
Besides, my real purpose is to protect my mother and the people who took care of me. Only that can never be compromised.
Now, the event should occur on a cold, rainy day, so let\'s keep an eye on it until then.
＊＊＊＊
Three days later, when I went to the classroom, the female students were unusually present this early and were whispering about the rumours.
When I listened to it, I got to know that Amy was harassed by burning the pen that she had taken good care of in the girl\'s dormitory. After which Amy appealed to the crown prince that it must have been done by Anastasia.
It seems that the crown prince who swallowed it called Anastasia and took her to the corridor as it is.
Of course, I\'m a figurine and a stalker, so when I left the classroom, I hide using 【Concealment】 and look for Anastasia & Co. Then, I came across the scene where the Crown Prince, Amy, and the capture targets surrounding Anastasia alone.
"Anastasia! give up already. What are you thinking, harassing the kind-hearted Amy by burning her pen?"
"His Highness, I didn\'t do that, and I have told my friends not to do this kind of things."
"But considering the situation, there can be no other than you."
"That\'s right? Miss Anastasia. No matter how cute Amy is, being jealous is ugly, you know?"
As if to support the Crown Prince, Prince Claude teases Anastasia with a ridiculous tone.
Anastasia sighs loudly when she sees the six with a frozen look. On the other hand, Amy hid behind the capture targets and grinned as if to provoke when she looks at Anastasia.
Ah, I see. So it was you who burn it to create this situation.
However, Anastasia speaks in a cold voice without changing her expression.
"I don\'t want to be told such a thing without evidence. So excuse me, the lessons will start."
Then after bowing, Anastasia turns to walk away. At which Leonardo grabs her arm and forcibly stops her steps.
"Wait. The talk isn\'t over."
"Leonardo von Jukes, I didn\'t allow you to touch me. You, a Viscount\'s son, dare to touch me, a Duke\'s daughter, without permission."
"Shut up! If you plead guilty, I\'ll let you go."
"Is that a threat?"
"It\'s bad that you don\'t plead guilty. There can be no one other than you who did this to harass Amy."
"…"
Even after this, Anastasia didn\'t change her expressions at all and looks at Leonardo with a cold expression. No, what\'s behind those eyes may be contempt.
However, it would be bad if it stays like this.
When I disable 【Concealment】, I deliberately made loud footsteps and approached Anastasia.
"Excuse me for disturbing you while you were conversing! It\'s almost time for the class to start!"
With that said, I kneel and thank my liege.
"Tch, enough. let\'s go."
With that one word from the Crown Prince, Amy\'s reverse harem returned to the classroom.
"Allen, you –"
"Anastasia-sama, it\'s time. The class will start."
I interrupted Anastasia\'s words by saying that, and I hurried back to the classroom.
