CHAPTER 1 - THE FIRST PRINCESS
The school on holidays is quiet and easy to spend time in.
Students at the academy are naturally young, and on holidays it is common for them to invite their friends to go out to the royal capital.
Some of the students enjoy dating with the opposite sex, and I, who only knew the situation the year before last, can’t help but envy the younger students.
Some of them are terrible, but most seem to have healthy relationship.
Marie was beside me as I walked down the quiet hallway, stretching out after yawning.
Even though she is a little sister in a previous life, she is the root of all evil that drove the kingdom of Horfalt to the brink of destruction.
Also, she is the fake saint [Marie Fou Lafan].
Today, she is walking next to me with her small body.
In her hand was a souvenir she had purchased in the royal capital.
Perhaps she is in a good mood and she has a rather loose face.
“I’m looking forward to having tea with Erika. I would love to talk to her every day, but we only see each other on the weekends because of the busyness of the world around
us.”
It’s getting to be a lot of trouble for a fake saint to meet Erika-sama ―― No, in a previous life, she was my niece, and seeing Erika was all sorts of trouble.
A niece from a previous life. In other words, to Marie, Erika is her daughter from a previous life.
So Marie had an emotional reunion with her daughter in this world ―― the world of the Otome game.
Therefore, she was looking forward to the day when they could talk at a tea party on the weekend.
She even went to the trouble of waking me up on a holiday morning and taking me out to the royal capital to buy snacks.
“You come to my room every morning on the weekends, and there’s a strange rumor going around among the boys. You should think about the trouble you’re causing me.” When I complain to her, Marie protests with a big wave of her hand.
“It can’t be helped! I can’t have a visit with Erika without aniki, the Duke. Besides, the only reason I let you go with me to buy sweets is because aniki insisted that I’m the one throwing the tea party! And you didn’t budge at all.”
I never bothered to have a tea party with Erika ―― my niece from a previous life, on the weekends.
I’m interested in talking to my niece from a previous life too, and most importantly, tea parties are my hobby.
No, it’s a way of life.
If I was going to attend, I wanted to be the one to throw the tea party.
“It’s obvious. No way I can let Erika prepare a tea party. She may have been my niece in a previous life, but she’s a princess now.”
The Kingdom of Horfalt is a large country, and as its princess, she has a position.
“In your case, it’s because it’s aniki’s hobby, isn’t it?”
“I’m not saying that’s not part of it, but I don’t want to make Erika prepare for the tea party because it’s not polite to make her do it. Because she is my niece from a previous life.”
“I’m your little sister from a previous life, though”
“I’m sorry. My little sister is even lower on my priority list than my niece.”
“What’s up with that difference in treatment?”
“It’s just a daily routine. And for the most part, what is it with you, knocking your brother up on a holiday morning from a previous life and making him go shopping with you? You haven’t changed at all from your previous life.”
Remembering a previous life, Marie in this life had not changed in any way.
Like the part where she uses me the right way on my days off, or the part where she begs me for spending money.
Luxion, who was listening to the conversation, points his red one-eyed lens at Marie while floating around my right shoulder.
[If the story of her previous life is true, then Marie has not grown in her reincarnation. I believe that physical growth is not possible, but mental growth is possible. Marie, why don’t you grow up a little more?]
Marie’s mouth was agape at Luxion’s harsh line.
Then she agitatedly starts an argument with Luxion.
“What do you mean I can’t grow up physically?! I’m going to grow into an adult, attractive body from now on!”
[I assure you, I have that much evidence to back it up.]
“What’s that based on? Besides, you said I’m not mature enough on the inside, didn’t you? Too bad~. I’ve lived longer than my brother. Inside, I’m a charming, mature woman who has had a lot of experience in a previous life. “
I snicker when I see Marie puffing out her no well-endowed chest that she is an adult.
“The self-proclaimed “adult” is having a miserable time deceiving five young men.”
Marie screams in an empty, easily audible hallway.
“It’s all your fault!”
“That’s because of you getting carried away”
“I did. I carried away! But what’s the point of beating up five guys in a duel? You didn’t like the handsome Julius and the others, so you beat them up out of spite!”
She is my little sister from a previous life, and she understands me very well.
“Aa~, that’s right. What is that?”
When I let it unfold, Marie clenches her fists and gives me a look of frustration.
――This girl really hasn’t grown at all from her previous life.
Rather, she seems younger than in her previous life, partly because of her current appearance.
There was not the slightest hint of the charm of an adult who had gained experience in a previous life.
Luxion made a gesture of waving the red lens from side to side, saying yare-yare.
[The same applies to Master, who needs to grow mentally.] We’ve had this same exchange before.
Unlike Marie, I’m not concerned with adulthood, so here’s what I’m going to say back to Luxion.
“I just don’t want to give up my pure, young boyish heart.”
[You’re getting better at making excuses.]
“When you grow up, you get good at making excuses. It’s a sign of growing up.”
[You use both the child and the adult for your own convenience.]
“Because it’s important to be flexible.”
As we continued our silly conversation, Marie, who had been watching me and Luxion, hugged her souvenir pastry, her mouth pouting.
“Aniki and Luxion look so much alike. Like the way you two talk and so sarcastic, really do look alike.”
When we were told we were similar, we protested to Marie.
“With this guy? No, I don’t think so. Because I’m nicer than him.”
[Similar to Master? Would you like me to do a full eye and head exam on you as well, Marie?]
Hearing our objections, Marie let out a deep sigh.
“It’s enough”
