The Cry of the Baroness

"――Lady Bonieto! You are not worthy of being my fiancée! I hereby dissolve our engagement!!!" "Your Highness Asinus. You stand by that statement, correct?" "Of course!!! I swear that as someone of royal blood, it is impossible for me to take back my words!" The incident occurred during the academy's graduation party. The stage was the platform. And standing beside His Highness was me. "And I hereby declare! As my next fiancée, Lady Conatus, the Baron's daughter, is the most suitable!" The venue fell silent. I stood there in shock. Lady Bonieto, the Duke's daughter, glared at us with a gaze like an assassin's bullet, even as she hid her face behind a fan.
