“However, when Cristea-sama entered the academy, it became apparent that not only could she skillfully control her immense magic power from a young age, which might otherwise have caused outbursts, but she also mastered intermediate-level magic already. Additionally, she is a Sacred Beast contractor... and with multiple beasts, no less. Even if the Ellisfeed family has no such intentions, the Royal family, or rather the Kingdom, cannot overlook such a person.”
Oh my... When I think about it, Cristea-sama is incredibly impressive despite her young appearance, much more so than me.
She’s like the protagonist of a story.
When it was announced that she was a Sacred Beast contractor, she stood tall and composed with the Sacred Beasts. That’s amazing.
Comparing myself, a mere Viscount’s daughter, to her is absurd.
High-ranking nobles are not only born into their status but also possess exceptional talents.
It must be difficult to deal with the envy from everyone...
“Therefore, it’s no wonder Alicia-sama felt pressured... Even I find Cristea-sama’s presence intimidating. Especially since Alicia-sama is the same age and in the same class as her... While I do sympathize, if she collapses under her own weight, it works out well for us.”
Francine-sama chuckled and sipped the freshly brewed tea.
Scary...
“That’s right, Francine-sama! Why not take this opportunity to thoroughly crush Alicia-sama?”
Trixie-sama suggested, as if she had come up with a brilliant idea.
Ehh...? Crush her? What could they possibly plan to do to a young lady who just enrolled?
“... Crush her, you say? That’s not very gentle. What exactly do you have in mind?”
Francine-sama, while admonishing Trixie-sama, showed a hint of interest.
“Well, currently, Alicia-sama’s entourage consists of a few classmates, and she has some upperclassmen supporters as well. We should make it clear to them that Alicia-sama has no future prospects. Don’t you think it would be fitting for the Crown Prince’s fiancée candidate to be isolated, without any followers?”
Trixie-sama grinned maliciously.
Oh no... Isn’t it terrible to isolate and pressure a young child like that?
Imagining my younger siblings, who have yet to enroll, facing such a situation sends chills down my spine.
“... I don't particularly agree, but certainly, those who support Alicia-sama might need to reconsider their positions.”
Francine-sama replied in a way that implied she had no personal interest but wouldn't stop others from acting.
Trixie-sama, taking this as permission, smiled smugly.
" Francine-sama, I will handle this with the utmost care!"
"... I won't be involved, so keep that in mind."
"Of course! I'm just going to make sure those who don't understand who is truly fit to be the Crown Prince's fiancée get the message!"
Trixie-sama began discussing her plan with those nearby.
What... Francine-sama, you're not going to stop them?!
Francine-sama, without admonishing Trixie-sama and her group, continued her conversation with her favorite entourage members as if nothing had happened.
I, along with a few other young ladies who were bewildered by Trixie-sama’s words, exchanged uneasy glances, unable to hide our worry about what was to come.
