Akuyaku Reijou wa Ringoku no Oitaishi ni Dekiai Sareru

Royal Lapis Lazuli school.

This is where royalty, aristocrats, and commoners who hold magical power from ages 12 to 16 attend.

After studying academics and how to socialize, each person will become an apprentice to their future careers after one year of graduation. To be a knight or even a maid, each will request for a senpai to teach them to become qualified for their job. For the daughters who are going to marry, after a year of graduation, they will train to become a bride in a married home.

――It’s currently an afternoon class but a female student made a noise and stood up from her chair.

She was Tiararose Lapis Clementheur. The daughter of the countries Marquis and also the fiancee of the crown prince.

Though she was gathering attention as the students observed, wondering what happened, Tiararose breathed heavily and distorted her face as in pain.

“What happened, Tiara.”

“……Uuu.”

Hartnights, the fiance and classmate of Tiararose, stood up and headed towards her. The one who followed him was her close friend who looked worried.

But, Hartnights’ words were spoken in vain as Tiararose started shaking.

As her fluffy honey-pink hair dances around, she tightly closed her eyes. Which daughter made the sudden shriek?

“No……. I’m, the villain -…….”

Leaving an unknown murmuring, Tiararose lost conscious――…….

◇ ◇ ◇

“Hurray! A new still! (TL: Still = otome game Still images) With this, I’ve fully completed Hartnights’  route!”

The scene where a young girl makes a cheerful shout playing an Otome Game floated into Tiararose’s head.

And the stage of the game was here the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom.

Unintentionally she raised her voice. “Eh?” But, that question was solved in immediately. That was because a large quantity of information flowed into Tiararose’s head.

――These are information about my previous life.

I reincarnated into the popular game The Ring of Lapis Lazuli.

A fantasy Otome game, set in the medieval times, with a world of magic.

The targets were the prince, step-brother, knight, magician, and the school’s healer.

Tiararose was able to understand this and her position instantly.

She existed to interfere the heroine――……the villainous daughter.

The heroine of the Otome game was the adopted daughter of the count of a remote area. She who held strong magical powers went from a commoner to a noble……and transferred as a student to this school.

The heroine transferred 2 years ago. Though Tiararose remembered the memories of her past life, she also has the memories of this life.

Calculating the dates, she counted the days until the game ends. And she realized that it was all too late.

That was because today was the day before the graduation party, the ending. At the party tomorrow, Teararose’s engagement will her fiance, Hartnight, will be annulled.

Hartnights Lapis Lactomut.

The main capture target and the first prince of the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom.

He was Tiararose’s fiance until his engagement with the heroine.

“…………the worst.”

As her eyes slowly opened, the few words she muttered was supposed to disappear into space. But, there was a response that her voice.

“You woke up. ……You can still sleep a little more. I’m arranging for a carriage.”

“Eh? ……Hartnights-sama? I, umm.”

“It is the first time you collapsed huh. ……Did you want to attract some attention because I had only cared for Akari?”

“…………”

Tiararose endured and swallowed her words to Hartnights’s response. No matter how rude those words were, Hartnights was the crown prince of this country.

Since he had been firmly captured by the heroine, Tiararose was uneasy about his actions. If I said something that annoyed him, he may claim that it was disrespectful.

“……No. It seemed like I did not feel well, I’m sorry to trouble you.”

“I am, more or less, your fiance.”

――more or less….

To those words, Tiararose looked down. It can’t be helped. After all, Hartnights right now is engrossed about the heroine Akari.

――Her name sounds Japanese huh.

In Ring of Lapis Lazuli, the player inputs a name. Therefore, the heroine had no official name. Tiararose decided that her name was this because this game was for Japanese People.

“……Tomorrow is the graduation party but there is a prior engagement. I’m sorry but I can’t escort you.”

Without looking sorry at all, Hartnights tells this to the Tiararose sleeping on the bed.

Blonde hair and blue eyes. Everyone who sees him will look with admiration but, right now, he is showing extremely cold eyes.

“…………I understand. I will head to the venue alone tomorrow.”

After a long silence, it was Tiararose who opened up her mouth.

How humiliating it is to not be escorted by your fiance at a party.

……But, she already knew. At the party where she heads in alone, Hartnights and the heroine will be waiting for her to start her conviction event.

I have played it many times in the game. Of course, Tiararose already knew what would happen.

The route was the Lapis Lazuli Kingdom’s first prince and crown prince, Hartnights.

He, the most popular character…earnestly loved the heroine. Whispering sweet words and having a gentle smile, and after the ending, he held a grand wedding ceremony, opening the cathedral which only the royal family can use.

Before meeting the heroine, Tiararose held the fiancee position. But, before Tiararose gave over Hartnight, she had said hurtful words to the heroine.

That was what the conviction will be about at the party tomorrow.

――but, I wonder how exactly are you going to convict me.

It may be because Tiararose had the soul of her reincarnated self, her words don’t seem as terrible as she had remembered from the game.

If I remembered, at the tea party, I warned her by saying, “I don’t dance twice with a man who isn’t my fiancee.”

When she touched a person who had a fiancee, I told her, “That person has a fiancee.”

Though I may have said those words harshly, it was common sense, and the fiancee of the male was shaking with an anxious face on.

What was wrong with the daughter of the marquis, Tiararose,  giving warnings to the daughter of the count? Of course, if this position was the other way around, then things would be different.

Besides, Tiararose was from a family with the title of Lapis. There are only a few who can go against her.

The title of Lapis from “Lapis Lazuli Kingdom” is held by the family who had done great service to the royal family.

This was an honorable thing to give and not at all easy to earn. For that reason, people who had the name “Lapis” have the power right after the royal family

After that were the duke, marquis, count, viscount, and the baron.

“You nodded pretty obediently, huh.”

Tiararose entered the astonished eyes of Hartnights.

Tiararose was conducting herself as a fiancee. Though I admit that I am a bit forceful, I have been training to become the Queen ever since childhood.

You must not be seen as someone easy from people with a lower status. And, the crown prince, Hartnights, should not take rash actions.

Tiararose had to perfectly handle social interactions and watch over Hartnights’ actions. If she didn’t, Hartnights would go out to the city saying it was “social studies.”

In the game, Tiararose was a villain. But, in her sharp words was love towards the crown prince Hartnights.

The reason she realized that was because she became Tiararose herself.

――But apparently, this thought was not properly conveyed to Hartnights-sama…….

“I must not trouble Hartnights-sama with my selfishness.”

“If it was as before, you would have said that it’s unreasonable to not escort your fiancee.”

“…………”

――What! I was saying something that was obviously true! This Prince is so….

You knew that already, but you would still tell me to enter alone, huh. Impossible. Tiararose gave up on Hartnights’ words.

Up until now, I, of course, advised him that you must not do such embarrassing things as my fiancee and as the crown prince.

But, right now, it’s different. Tiararose, who regained her past memories, had already given up.

It had already decided that tomorrow was the ending. And, as you can tell, Hartnights did not place any sense of importance to Tiararose.

Right now, her voice would not reach Hartnights.

“Well, that’s fine. It will save me work since you agreed.”

“Yes.”

“Well then, I’ll go back since after this, I have a promise I must keep.”

“Thank you for worrying about me when I had collapsed.”

The servant outside opened the doors to the infirmary. Hartnights left just like that with Tiararose inside alone.

“……He even took the time to clear people out. Of course. Why else would he say such things to me?”

In the still room, Tiararose voice resonated well. Sighing once, she worried about what to do from now on.

Shall I just be absent from tomorrow’s party? The thought disappeared as soon as it crossed her mind. It would not look good for the daughter of the marquis holding the name “Lapis” to not attend.

The one thing she didn’t want to do was to cause trouble for her parents.

“What happened to the obviate, villainous daughter?……Yes, if I remember correctly, she was exiled out of the country!”

In the game, there was no detailed description of what happened to the convicted Tiararose.  But at the ending roll, I remembered there was one sentence that said that she was banished from the country.

Thank goodness it wasn’t a death sentence. Relieved, I then thought that in that case, it might be fun and refreshing to live outside the country

Though she was the daughter of the marquis, if she was disengaged by the crown price, it would be difficult for her to wish for a happy marriage. There will be many people who come to claim the title and post of the name “Lapis,” but those, I will strongly turn down.

“I’ll fall in love with the outside this country and live as a commoner……. Un, I guess that may also count as happiness.”

Unlike the sharp words that Tiararose said to Hartnights, the words now were very gentle.

――and, if I married such a prince……there’ll definitely be several hardships in the future.

Tiararose sighed once more.

“I wonder what will happen tomorrow……”

Though she felt anxiety inside, she had already known the progression.

Obediently accepting the disengagement and quietly leave the party venue, Tiararose, who decided that, aimed for her carriage to return home.
