The Fiancee Who Betrayed Me Is Obsessed With Me

7 – Betrothed to a princess from an enemy country (7)

Recently, the frequency of Yuuna’s visits to the Kingdom of Regius has increased.

As it was a neighboring kingdom facing the border, it didn’t take that long to go back and forth, but considering that she was always the one visiting, her behavior recently was unusual.

I always met her whenever I had time, so as I got older, the days we saw each other became less and less frequent.

But now that she comes to visit me with a relatively small schedule, we spend more time together since then.

Has she started to open her heart to me? Are you trying to acknowledge your marriage to me?

Our relationship has always been good, but I would be very happy if she accepted the marriage part.

Above all, I already liked her.

The more I got older, the more I learned through her what it means to like someone of the opposite s*x.

“You come here often these days, Yuuna.”

“Yes… “Because Ben kept coming.”

“thank you. “You’re pretty today too.”

“Well, what do you say… !”

Now I don’t hesitate to express this to her.

I had already accepted my heart, and she was actually so beautiful.

Considering she was still growing, I couldn’t even imagine how beautiful she would be when we got married.

“Rather… Do you really have to take off your clothes like that? everyday… ”

“That’s because Yuna always comes to visit when training is over. “Isn’t that actually a good thing?”

“Oh really… !”

The time we met was always after training, when I had some free time.

She blushed and turned her head away at my mischievous prank.

But even so, it was cute how his eyes glanced at my body from the corner of his eye.

Maybe it’s because of this body that she comes to visit me often.

I say no, but she definitely seemed to like men with good bodies.

It could have been thought to be a shady taste, but I didn’t mind.

Rather, if she developed feelings for me through my body, that was also a strangely not bad feeling.

Of course, I may have been mistaken, but in any case, at this moment, she was walking behind me and looking at my back.

“wait a minute. “I’ll take a shower and come back soon.”

“huh.”

He takes Yuna to the living room and goes out to wash her body.

Now, as if they are used to it, people in the capital greet me as I walk around with my top off.

-… I don’t think Princess Yuuna knows?

-yes. Otherwise… like this…

Passing through the long hallway in the center of the castle, just before turning a corner, you hear a strange conversation.

I can’t hear everything exactly, but it’s definitely about Yuuna.

They seemed to be ministers of the royal family.

-It seems like you two are sincere… Too bad.

-But what can I do? It’s already happened…

“Prince? “What are you doing there?”

-… !!

While I was secretly eavesdropping on a conversation in an atmosphere that was strangely difficult to ignore, someone called me from behind.

“… ah. Sir Gerg.”

It was Sir Gerg, one of the royal knights.

He was my swordsmanship teacher, a loyalist to the Regius royal family, and at the same time a close friend of my father.

I have devoted my sword and heart to the royal family for a long time, and because I have a close relationship with the previous king and my father, he also took care of me like a son.

“I was just going to take a shower.”

“I see. Muscle hypertrophy is good, but it is also important to increase flexibility during the growth period. And if the prince exposes himself like this, the ladies will not be able to sleep.”

“There’s nothing you can’t say to a child who’s only 15 years old.”

“When I was 15, I destroyed an orc tribe.”

Those words alone clearly showed how strong he was.

He is certainly one of the strongest men not only in the kingdom but also on the continent.

Perhaps it was thanks to the knights he led that our kingdom was so strong.

I didn’t know it when I first became engaged to Yuuna, but the situation in the Kingdom of Regius was worse than I knew as a child.

The decision to join hands with the Kingdom of Helia, a long-time rival, was ultimately to correct the declining royal family.

If they had been hostile to the Kingdom of Helia until the end, they could have ended up being swallowed up by them, but in hindsight, making peace was definitely a good choice.

Therefore, after learning that fact, I also thought that my relationship with her was more important.

Of course, my feelings for her were sincere, but I had to maintain this relationship for the sake of the kingdom.

“You said you were deployed near the border not long ago, right? “How was it?”

“… It’s still not a good situation. But it’s definitely getting better. Geographical limitations are unavoidable, but we are overcoming them with the help of the Kingdom of Helia.”

“hmm. Relief… “This is it.”

But the situation in the kingdom was still not good. Thanks to the help of the Kingdom of Helia, little by little, I am able to survive.

Not so long ago, there was an incident in the Kingdom of Regius where the largest harvest site was turned into a barren desert by monsters.

Although the people and land were lost as a result, the most serious problem was the long-term financial problem.

As there was a huge hole in the supply of basic food and the export of special products, it was inevitable that problems would arise throughout the kingdom.

Although they managed to survive through various policies, they eventually had no choice but to join hands with the royal family of Helia.

From what I heard, it seems like the situation got worse due to the wrong policies of the late king, or grandfather, at the time.

He was evaluated as a fairly incompetent king because he implemented policies that incited political conflict within the kingdom and the financial situation did not improve.

It is said that when my father inherited the throne, the kingdom was already in a state of decline.

Of course, it’s still difficult, but I’ve recovered to some extent now. My father was hoping that if things continued like this, it would definitely revive like before.

“If it weren’t for the peace with the Kingdom of Helia, it could have been a really difficult situation. “I should be grateful to the prince.”

“It’s natural as a royal.”

“Do you like the princess of the Kingdom of Helia?”

“great. Beautiful, kind… “I think it will be a happy married life.”

“hehehe. “Marriage is like war, but I’m glad you think so.”

Maybe the reason I thought I had to impress her from the beginning was because I had a vague idea of the situation in the kingdom.

But now it was clear that his feelings for her were genuine.

This thought that I liked her right now wasn’t a lie, so I didn’t have to think about anything else politically.

If I could just marry her and be happy, it would be good for both me and the kingdom.

There was no reason to think deeply and complicatedly.

“We haven’t even had a ceremony yet, but are you already breaking the illusion?”

“It’s the adults’ situation. Well, I’m glad you’re happy now. “I will support you.”

Gerg smiled happily and left.

What was certain was that my marriage would be different from his.

Although it was little by little, Yuna was opening her heart to me, and I still liked her.

The life she loved could not be expected, but it seemed like it would never be like war.

If I could get married safely, there would never be a life like war for me.

Yuuna sat in the living room in silence and sipped tea alone.

Times have been pretty good lately. Time to cool down from the heat I felt from looking at Ben’s body and to be alone in my thoughts.

As I waited and thought about Ben like this, I couldn’t help but think about my future with him.

‘There’s not much left now, Yuuna. It will be over soon.’

Soon my engagement with him will end.

I didn’t know exactly when the engagement would be broken off, but judging from the king’s words, it seemed like there really wasn’t much time left.

When I imagined that I would no longer be my fiancé, my heart ached for no reason.

Sometimes I wonder if I really shouldn’t just marry him. I’ve even thought about it.

And there were times when I shared those feelings with my maids without my father knowing.

But Yuna soon had no choice but to give up that fleeting thought.

As soon as that story was mentioned, the maids’ expressions all turned to stone.

Well, since she was making such a fuss about not wanting to get married, everyone must have been trying to break off the engagement.

If he suddenly changed his words so easily, everyone would be angry and frustrated.

Because she had already said those words in the past, Yuna never said those thoughts out loud again.

No, I have intentionally avoided even thinking about it.

“Yuuna. “Have you waited long?”

“Yes. no.”

After some time, Ben came back after taking a shower.

It was somewhat disappointing that his body odor, which had been prevalent after sweating, had disappeared.

I thought it was shady myself, but I instinctively liked smelling him.

In fact, Yuna’s feelings have changed a little more recently.

The news that my engagement with him would end, and along with that, I got to see his bare body.

The fact that his body had become so great felt different to Yuna because she knew that he always neglected training to look good to her.

And above all, I couldn’t take my eyes off the bare body of the man I saw for the first time.

Even more so because it was Ben’s.

Yuna had also noticed that her feelings toward him were changing little by little over the past few days.

The man she thought was just a friend began to look like a man, and the heart of a girl who had just entered puberty quickly burned at the sight of his body, which could hardly be said to be of the same age.

Although I was trying hard to suppress it, I couldn’t help but want to see him.

It was a change of mind so fast that even I could not keep up with it.

But sadly, their relationship was coming to an end.

Whether he knew this or not, Ben’s attitude was the same.

“I… Ben. “Have you heard anything?”

“Did you hear that?”

“Well, just…” “Have you heard anything from the King or Queen?”

“We haven’t talked about anything in particular lately? why?”

Looking at his attitude, it seemed like he really didn’t know.

However, it was difficult to believe that my father’s words that the engagement would soon be broken off were also false.

If so, it meant that the breakup of the engagement was going on without Ben’s knowledge.

Maybe he was sincerely courting Yuna and was hiding it from everyone.

“Yes. no.”

“… okay?”

However, Ben’s doubts arose about Yuna’s attitude.

This was because, combined with the conversation between the ministers I overheard earlier, I felt something uneasy.

But Ben quickly dismissed that thought.

There wasn’t anything to anticipate, and right now I wanted to focus on Yuna.

“By the way, you said there was a banquet coming soon, right? “Only the Kingdom of Regius and the nobles of our kingdom participate.”

“Oh, yes. I think it was said to be a banquet hosted by the Duke of Ceramide, and it was exactly three years since the two kingdoms became friendly. “It’s also the third year since we got engaged.”

“Yes… I see.”

“Do you remember that day three years ago? The sight of him sitting on the floor and crying… ”

“Well, I told you not to talk about it then! really!”

“ha ha ha. It was really cute back then. “For some reason, you don’t hate me, even though you hate me that much.”

“Well, what do you say… ! fool… ”

The conversation blossomed as the two talked about their first meeting in a long time.

Contrary to Yuna’s thoughts that it would be the worst moment, looking back, it turned out to be such a beautiful memory, and their relationship became that much more precious.

Yuna kept feeling like the end was approaching, but she tried to shake off the negative thoughts.

The Ben that Yuna had seen so far was on her side.

Even though my engagement with him was broken, I had faith that my relationship with him would not change.

Most of all, Ben liked himself.

It was a selfish and bad idea, but even so, Yuuna had no choice but to feel relieved.

Because of what she said, she couldn’t stop the breakup of the engagement, and even so, Ben assured her that he would continue to be friends.

Of course, it was unclear what he would think when the engagement actually broke off.

Nevertheless, there was nothing Yuna could do other than trust him.
