Mannen D-rank No Chuunen Boukensha, Yotta Ikioi De Densetsu No Ken Wo Hikkonuku - CH 37

[Cruxie-sama. Please join my unit]

I didn’t think it would be a direct invitation from the princess to join her unit.

Normally anyone would accept it as an honor, but Cruxie shook his head.

[I-i can’t, it is impossible for a commoner like me to be in the same unit as the princess]

[That kind of thing doesn’t matter. Because you are considered the strongest in the school!]

The princess replied instantly, it seems that she will not give up easily.

『Cruxie must be very good if the princess says it herself.』

『I certainly thought he was stronger than Lyos, but… ..』

Aria and I, who were completely out of the conversation, spoke out of thoughts.

[W-Well, actually… I’m already part of a unit with them]

Saying that, Cruxie looked at Aria and me.

His expression said “I’m sorry!”

…… Hey, hey, it looks like you are dragging us into a troublesome situation.

Of course, the princess’s eyes also turned towards us.

[Ara, where have I seen you….]

Looking at Aria’s face, she seemed to have noticed something for a moment, but it seems like it was just her imagination and she turned her head to the side.

『We’ve only met once or twice. I don’t think she remembers me 』

『Rather, it’s better like this …… considering this situation』

The princess murmured a little.

[I see… ..so you are in a unit with these people… ..]

While smiling superficially, it was a voice that could be felt some frustration and irritation.

That is natural.

She came to give him an invitation to be part of her unit, but he was already in another unit.

[…… You mean, you prefer to be with them more than me ……]

She didn’t break her smile but i could see that she was looking at us with a dark aura behind her.

S-She’s upset …… She’s absolutely upset.

For me who have never met royalty, this is too much for me.

However, I can’t depend on Aria.

Since her goal is to regain the honor of the Linslet family, it would be the end if she does something that makes the princess sulk.

Since she don’t seem to remember it, it would be better to leave it that way.

[T-That’s why I’m sorry….]

Cruxie was trying to reject her.

At that moment, as if she had thought of something , the princess suddenly declared.

[I see! In that case, I just have to join this unit too!]

[Ehh !?]

At those unexpected words, Cruxie raised a surprised voice.

[N-No, that’s….]

[It’s OK! there would be four of us including me! That would be a good number of people!]

[B-But, your unit… ..]

[You do not have to worry. There are five of us including me, even if I leave the unit there would still be four people left]

The princess in this unit?

She must be joking.

The place will not be silent.

[You can’t, princess!]

Suddenly a sharp voice intervened.

It was a girl about the same age as Princess Fiora.

She was frowning somewhat, it seems that she is a serious and direct girl.

[Ara, why is that Marie]

[Don’t give me that! I took my eyes of you for a second and I find you doing this… ..!]

[It’s because you are very noisy when you are with me]

[T-That’s because you have too much freedom! Besides, what do you mean by leaving the unit !? It can’t be allowed especially that he’s part in commoners-only unit!]

It seems that she is the princess’s escort, and she has some very good understanding in what’s going on.

As if all her answers were rebutted, the princess puffed out her cheeks.

[So what can I do to get Cruxie-sama be in the same unit with me?]

[Please give it up]

[I don’t want to]

She didn’t look like the person that shown great dignity at the entrance ceremony, but now she looked like a child.

[You are causing problems for Cruxie-]

[Eh? R-Really? Could it be that I’m giving you problems… ..?]

The princess fearfully wanted to confirm it.

[…..….]

Even if it’s true, he couldn’t just nod, Cruxie scratched his head with a weak face.

[……It can not be helped. I’ll leave it like this for today]

Finally, Princess Fiora leaves.

As she left the cafeteria with her escort, the tension that filled the place was undone.

But curious eyes turned to us.

Because our meeting was interrupted we decided to leave the cafeteria.

***

[Do you have a moment?]

An employee who was cleaning the table of the customers who just left, was surprised by the sudden voice that spoke to him.

Because it was the princess of this kingdom who was there.

Although she had already left, it seems that she returned again.

But this time she had a hood covering her head.

Thanks to that, the other customers didn’t notice her.

[P-Prince—-]

[Shh. Be quiet, please. I’ll leave as soon as I finish what I came to do]

The princess kept talking.

[The cup of tea where the black-haired person was drinking earlier. Please sell it to me for five gold coins]

*

Princess Fiora who have just returned to her room out of breath but excited.

[Ahh! Cruxie-sama’s saliva… .is here… ..! ahaha]

The cup of tea that she bought from the cafeteria earlier was in her hand while having an ecstatic expression.

[I want to lick it… ..but, it would get dirty with my saliva… ..! Still, I want to have an indirect kiss with Cruxie-sama… ..! Ahhhh! What should I do!?]

As she raised her voice holding her head, then as if a sudden idea come into her mind her eyes were shining.

[That’s it! Only half….! I just have to lick half of it!]
