The Lady Wants To Rest

“Prince Rubia, your Highness?”

“…Yes, that’s right.”

Ba-dump.

Why did he react like that? Was it because I was society’s notorious princess? Yes, that’s probably why. No, it was to be expected.

“I’ve been waiting for you. Please check your scores first.”

When I had checked the slip of paper, I unconsciously crumpled it.

‘Damn it.’

Score 90 points. Ranking 1/150.

The top out of the 150 accepted students!

That was my grade.

‘Why am I at the top? Did something happen? How could I get first with 90 points?!’

I shouted inside myself.

Just then, the main culprit, the pink girl, approached me while chuckling, “Hoho.”

“I greet your Highness, the princess. Did you do well on the test?”

The pink girl looked down at me and lifted the corners of her mouth.

After seeing my crumpled expression, it appeared she had come to her own conclusion.

“Well, even if I do hear it, I think I can guess. Please don’t be so saddened. Being accepted into Renault Academy is after all a rather difficult feat.”

How dare you take the test, she said with her expression.

She covered her mouth with her face and let out a low chuckle.

“Should you ever think to take the exam next year, you may ask me for help. Though not the best, I passed the exam, and I believe I could help your Highness as well.”

The pink girl flaunted her acceptance.

It was surprising, but I was so distracted having received news that I scored the top, and had no energy to reply to her.

Then, the exam proctor, who had been looking between us with an odd look, started speaking.

“Lady Hansen, I believe there is a misunderstanding, but her Highness, the princess, is….”

“Stop!”

I quickly covered the exam proctor’s mouth. Then I gave the exam proctor a ferocious look.

The exam proctor blinked with an unreadable face.

It was the face that complained it was an honorable feat, so why block it, but I was desperate.

If the rumor that I had received the top scores on this exam, there would be too much of a disadvantage to my life as a couch potato without a doubt. I had to prevent it.

After quirking her head, the pink girl returned to her clique after fulfilling her revenge.

“I’m sorry. I’m rather shy….”

“Ah, yes.”

The exam proctor nodded his head awkwardly.

I let out a sigh and turned around.

How could things grow so twisted before I had even been accepted? It appears I will have to consider what I should do from here on out.

Just then, the exam proctor called me back.

“Princess, your Highness, please wait for a moment.”

“What is it?”

After hearing the proctor’s words, I frowned deeply.

“The president wishes to see your Highness.”

“The president wishes to meet me? For what reason?”

Even if one was to be the top scorer of the exams, there was no reason for the president to immediately request to see a student. It was very unusual.

At my askance, the proctor said in a proud voice.

“That is because your Highness has passed the test with the highest score yet.”

“……!”

“A top scorer. And at that, with the highest score. Congratulations, your Highness.”

Not just the top scorer, but admitted with the highest score to date!

I frowned deeply.

However, this wasn’t a time to be dazed.

I had to hurriedly think of a countermeasure.

‘What countermeasure? I’m already ruined.’

There was no question that my ambitious plan to spend the next 4 years freeloading had been ruined before I’d even started it.

Top scorer. At that, the top scorer accepted with the highest score to date; who would leave me alone?

‘What should I do?’

I crossed my arms in front of the President’s Office and considered it.

Many methods passed through my brain, but everything added up to a single conclusion. It was too late.

Just then, the door to the President’s Office opened and the secretary led me in.

“Have a seat, Your Highness.”

At my entrance, an elder, whose hair was white and had a gentle demeanor, stood up.

“I greet her Highness, the Roxanne Grand Duchy’s Princess Rubia. Though I have many flaws, I am Baron Krujen, currently in charge of Renault Academy.
