Chapter 43

At that moment, the door suddenly opened.

“If you open it like that, my sister wouldn’t like it.”

“Ha? I guess she didn’t like it when you opened it, right? When I opened it, she welcomed me with a smile.”

“Both of you, step back.”

“Father, isn’t that too much? At times like this-.”

“I’m sorry. Anyway, I need to hear the answer from the cotton ball first.”

“Don’t take out the magic. Put it in.”

I think my dad and brothers are here, because it’s very noisy.

After being in the dressing room, I peeked toward the living room.

“Dad?”

No matter what they’re talking to each other, the three paused and looked at me.

“Ares and Ixion are here, too?”

All three people who saw me hardened as if they were stone statues.

Surprised face.

“Hehe, what do you think? It’s a new year’s dress made by Yutra! Isn’t it pretty?”

Ta-da!

I had an ominous feeling when I showed off my new clothes.

What is it?

When I quickly looked around, I felt a black energy from Ixion.

I screamed in a panic.

“I’ll hate you if you break down the wall again!”

Then the magic sank and disappeared.

“Phew.”

I protected it. My new room!

At that time, Ares approached me.

“You’re so cute today, my sister.”

“Well, it’s worth looking at if the topic is a bunch of weak cotton balls,” said Ixion as he approached.

“You don’t have to listen to such violent men who break walls.”

“Ah, better than men with black hearts.”

“I think you still need education.”

“Are you trying me now?”

They began to fight in front of us.

No, this thing again.

I’m not going to stop you!

If you’re going to fight, go out and fight!

Don’t break my room!

I looked at my dad, the only hope.

Indeed, my dad was looking at me with a calm face.

As expected, I’m relieved.

My dad, who’s always cool-headed!

The moment I reached out to my dad with a big smile.

“…….I’m afraid.”

Dad staggered slightly and muttered.

“My daughter’s cuteness takes control of my body.”

“Temporary paralysis. Immediately after that, the abnormally rapid contraction and expansion of the ventricle and atrium.”

“·······.”

“My brain loses control of my limbs and they try to move freely.”

Huk!, my father, who came up to me, hugged me.

Hey, hugging your daughter is something too easy to control.

I looked down at my dad with salty cold eyes.

“I feel like I already heard that.”

I’m not curious at all.

“Conquer the world with cuteness.”

I’m not conquering anything at all!

“I thought it was crazy human nonsense, but I didn’t know it would actually happen.”

No.

That’s crazy human nonsense.

And my dad is talking about that nonsense right now.

What about my dad?

“That’s a really scary power. My daughter’s cuteness had tremendous destructive power.”

“…”

“…”

There was a chilly silence in my room as if summoning the Akitus.

See?

Everyone is dumbfounded.

But it was that moment.

“That’s right!”

“If cuteness is a crime, you will be executed! No, the death penalty is not the answer!”

“Rather than killing the lady, we kill everyone! All we need in this world is our lady!”

“Cuteness to conquer this world and conquer heaven and hell!”

“…”

No, don’t sympathize!…

I thought they were getting weirder and weirder.

But I didn’t lose hope.

Looking at Ixion and Ares, they also looked speechless at the absurd sight.

Yeah, yeah.

Right?

I feel the same way.

I gazed at both of them.

But.

“Certainly. I don’t know what will happen if they fall for this bunch of cotton balls.”

“Thinking about this world, cleaning up on a large scale at least once in a while…….”

What’s wrong with them?

I hope it’s not a human beings they are cleaning-up, right?

I’m going crazy.

There is a chaotic show in front of my eyes, and everyone is nodding their heads there.

Am I the only normal person here?

“Oh, this is all because Lulu is cute. Why did everyone come here?”

“It’s a grand banquet today.”

I looked away because Ixion looked at me as if I was asking something natural.

“Why is that?”

Then Ares suddenly knelt in front of me.

“Will you give me the honor to escort my sister?”

Smiling eyes, soft voice, perfect posture.

It was literally a male lead who jumped out of the novel.

“What are you doing cutting-in-line!”

“Maybe you’re just slow.”

Ixion pulled my hand, which Ares was holding, toward him.

“I protect you, cotton balls.”

Naturally, my body fell into the arms of Ixion.

“Right?”

Ixion looking down at me and smiling, was another taste of Rofan Male lead.

“Everyone is making meaningless effort.”

At the same time as I heard my dad’s low voice, a black magic gently wrapped around me.

A sweet magic like a blanket made of cotton.

“My daughter likes me the most anyway.”

My father, holding me in his arms, nodded and looked down at his two sons arrogantly.

‘……What is this situation? This familiar scene?’

I think I’ve seen it somewhere.

It’s like a daughter-foolish dad and a sister-foolish brother are keeping each other in check!

‘This is a favorite scene of Rofan!’

I finally have a daughter-fool father, and a sister-fools brother?

At that moment, the favorability floating next to Ares caught my eye.

[-160]

‘If you want to be a fool for your younger sister, you should at least not be negative.’

As expected, Ares is a really mysterious person.

‘If I hadn’t seen his favorability, I would’ve mistaken Ares for accepting me completely.’

“Luatisha, what do you think?”

Ares asked with a bright smile at me.

“Umm·······. But I’m still young, so I’m not even old enough to enter with a partner.”

I think the aftermath will be no joke no matter which of the three I choose.

When I tapped my dad’s chest, he dropped me off.

“But there’s no law telling you not to have one.”

“You’re out, Ares. Escort is protecting the lady and I’ve already told that cotton ball that I’ll protect her.”

“Oh no. But my sister has something special to do with me today.”

“What special?”

Ixion raised his eyebrows, like he seemed to be very annoyed.

“It’s a secret between the two of us,”

Ares said, pulling me into his arms.

I glanced up at Ares.

He immediately lowered his gaze and faced me.

‘It’s better to go with Ares to catch the mastermind and raise his favorability.’

“Ares!”

When I called Ares, he smiled brightly.

It was the smile of the winner.

I whispered in Ares’ ear before Ixion and my dad said something in shock.

“Try harder.”

Ares’ eyes trembled, perhaps because it was an unexpected word.

“I haven’t forgiven Ares yet.”

Flinch.

(tl: she is such a girlboss here :》)

While Ares was embarrassed, I relaxed out of his arms.

There’s something he’s mistaken about.

The choice lies with me, the one with the power of cuteness to conquer the world.

I shouldn’t care about other people’s likes, but about my likes, right?

I should choose the person who likes me the most, right?

I’ve always been on the female protagonist’s side.

But I was not a female lead chosen by male lead characters, but a reader who had to choose male lead characters to be satisfied!

Ares was caught pretending to be kind to me, so I’m getting back at him!

“T, there’s someone I want to go to the banquet with!”

My dad and Ixion looked at me.

“Who is that?”

“That’s…”

The one that I’ve been wanting…

“Dad, Ares, Ixion!”

Precious family.

“I want to enter with the three of you together!”

So what if they’re not a daughter fool or a sister fool?

They don’t have to like me that much.

Family is something you can hate and love the next day.

“The three of us together?”

“Yes, it’s okay. I’m not even old enough to be escorted anyway.”

Ixion’s face rotted.

“I’m entering with this guy….”

“…I’m the one who’s more disgusted.”

“Hmm, if it’s not the three of you, Anna, Nancy, Laura, and Tilda will do!”

“Oh my! We can enter together as many as we want!”

“The entrance to the banquet hall is huge!”

Dad and brothers stared at it with cold eyes, but the maid sisters didn’t seem to feel it.

At one time, even talking to my dad seemed to have put their life on the line.

Is this what a sense of upheaval is?

“So, Ares and Ixion can never go in together?”

“There’s nothing we can’t do.”

“Because my sister wants it”

Good, good.

I hope this will lead to a change between the two.

But it wasn’t up to me.

There’s nothing as unpleasant as forcefully weaving when you hate it.

“How about you, dad? Is that okay?”

My dad pressed my head hard when I said that.

“Come on, let’s go.”

* * *

Ixion and Ares did not glance at each other.

Even if they didn’t, I feel enough that they hate each other’s presence.

Walking through the corridor, the two were lost in thought.

When Luatisha came to Duchy and the season has not passed yet.

Nevertheless, too much has changed.

The employees, who had always been stiff, were lively and bright.

It goes without saying that the overall atmosphere of the castle is changing.

What was most surprising was the change in the attitude of their father, Duke Paeraton.

There are still times when they get goosebumps when they see him treating Luatisha.

But what was more surprising was the change they went through.

It was something that could not be explained one by one.

It seemed very trivial, but it was so huge that it shook everything.

It’s the same now.

It’s a good relationship if we don’t bleed when we meet each other.

But they didn’t expect to enter the banquet side by side with such a calm and normal look.

Very trivial, but a very huge change.

The three crossed the corridor in an awkward mood as if they were wearing clothes that didn’t fit.

However, I didn’t feel so bad to see Luatisha walking around right next to them.

“Your Grace, Young Master Ares, Young Master Ixion, and Princess Luatisha”.

The voice of the calling officer was heard and the family entered the grand banquet hall together.

The bright light of the crystal chandelier shone on the four.

“Oh my, is it that I’m dreaming of Young Masters entering together?”

“His Grcae is not alone.”

“Ha, they were really picturesque people, but I can’t speak today or the atmosphere will all be ruined.”

“Don’t say things like that, madam. Because the atmosphere is getting cold.”

“Ah, is that the famous little princess? That’s so cute.”

At that time, Duke Paeraton hugged the youngest princess.

“Oh my god!”

“See? I told you so. I was right, wasn’t I? The youngest princess is special to His excellency.”

“Looking at that, it seems so for the two Young Masters.”

Two Young Master stood on both sides of Duke Paeraton, who hugged the youngest princess.

The expression of looking at the princess is a face that they haven’t seen so far.

“Wha·····.”

and

“Something feels very, very strange. The Paeratons, who slowly came down the stairs, seemed like a really ordinary, lovely family.

* * *

Ares looked at Luatisha, who could not leave in front of the chocolate fountain.

It felt strange to see that she liked it.

When I look at Luatisha, I feel like I’m constantly…

‘No, this is not the time to think about it.’

Ares’ eyes glanced through the banquet hall.

When the party was ripe to some extent, Duke Paeraton entered with the elders in the inner chamber.

‘Now that the elders have come out, the vassals will go in.’

After that, each faction will go in, so the duke will continue to stay in the chamber.

“There is no Ixion······.’

At first, he was stuck next to Luatisha as if he were a gum.

It was surprising that Ixion attended such a banquet and didn’t leave in just five minutes.

Of course, people found him, and thanks to that, Ixion’s annoyance seems to be getting higher and higher.

In addition, he was wary of everyone who approached Luatisha.

Eventually, while playing pranks on people, he got scolded by Luatisha.

Because ordinary people will never see it as a prank.

‘But it’s already a major development just because you didn’t rush to kill anyone.’

At that time, Ares and Luatisha’s eyes met.

Ares nodded.

Those who came out of the inner room are the elders.

The most likely location to be the back, along with the elders.

As expected, Luatisha seems to have understood right away.

The elders approached the ‘youngest princess’, who was almost new to them, and Luatisha greeted them quite accordingly.

At least, a baby with short arms and legs spread her skirt wide and her legs were shaped like a hopping rabbit.

‘It’s amazing,’ Luatisha didn’t tell me how she can figure it out.

Ares was the type of person who had to check everything himself to be satisfied.

However, he assumes that that child will make it and is making the next plan.

Isn’t that faith?

‘…I’m sure it’s okay.’

Anyway, I confirmed that Luatisha was intelligent.

So she’ll do well on her own even now.

‘Why am I paying so much attention?’

Anyway, today was the end after finding out who Luatisha was talking about.

Tomorrow, she will talk to Ares about who is behind it and discuss ways to obtain material evidence.

So nothing will happen.

Just because Luatisha found out who was behind her right away, she was never a child who moved carelessly without grounds.

It was then.

“You’re a bad guy!”

Luatisha shouted 100 times louder.

Huh?

“Grandpa! Bad! Mean!”

Not just some old man, but she pointed a finger at the head of the Senate.

“Bad tax evasion!”

Luatisha·······?

Ares’ pupils shook.

Ares, the smart one, lost his soul.
