3.1 After School Date
…this guy sure has a strong mental fortitude—was the next thing that came upon Sharina’s mind.
Not even a day had passed since he was accused of sexual harassment, and yet, here he was.
No matter how much she detested it, Sharina still had to stand up and pay her respect towards this kingdom’s Prince—
—to be honest, I don’t feel an ounce of respect towards him…
“…”
When she glanced towards her side, Riol was doing the same—also with the same expression as her. He was probably thinking along the same line.
…This is solidarity at its finest.
“Women do make-up, wear perfumes, and love to eat confections—to put it simply, they like everything that is sweet—even if it’s sickening, to the point that it becomes unpleasant. Hey, don’t you agree with me, Cat?”
…Well, if you find the smell unpleasant, how about holding your nose with a clothespin? However, Sharina managed to keep her mouth shut—
—it was thanks to Riol, who glowered at her behind those long bangs of his—he’s so cool…
“I’m hungry because I didn’t stop at the cafeteria. Give me some of that sandwich and I’ll let this morning’s incident go unquestioned.”
—no, he isn’t mentally strong, just thick-faced.
Sharina dropped her gaze on the lunch box on the grass. …Riol would surely do the same.
Well, the sandwich’s size was originally big, anyway. So big that two people couldn’t finish it—so giving some away probably doesn’t matter…
“I apologize, Your Highness, but this is the sandwich I made. I’m an amateur who’s only imitating my chef—hence, it’s unlikely this’ll suit your palate, Your Highness.”
—it’s not about quantity…
She just didn’t want the food she had wholeheartedly made for her beloved Riol to be eaten by a Thief. Her heart absolutely objected to that.
“Do not worry. I already knew yesterday’s cookies were made by an amateur. By the way, those cookies had an amazing color—just like their maker.”
“Eh…”
I was surprised to hear that. Behind his bangs, Riol’s eyes widened.
“W-well, the cookies can be considered as snack, but, to offer something like this as a lunch for Your Highness is too—…”
“—you sure are persistent. I said that I’m fine with it. Hence, give me some—this is an order.”
“…Alright.”
Tch. She cursed in her heart.
She couldn’t afford to cause more trouble, especially with the kingdom’s prince. Thus, Sharina reluctantly obliged and offered the basket to him—which contained the remaining hamburger sandwich.
“By all means. If it doesn’t fit in your mouth, you’re free to throw it away.”
To be honest, she’d rather throw it away than let it be eaten by this guy…
“Ho, that’s quite a huge sandwich.”
This is his fourth ‘Ho’ today. Who knows, the First Prince might have been an owl in his previous life.
“—you won’t get owl[1]… my mistake, I’m trying to say, since it’s wrapped in thin paper[2], you shouldn’t get any oil in your hands.”
…I inadvertently said what was on my mind…
For some reason, Riol was gagging next to her—could it be that he choked on the sandwich? Sharina couldn’t help but worry.
“Fumu. It’s quite delicious—you hereby receive my compliment.”
…Hey—! Shouldn’t ‘Ho’ be your first word there—!?
D-did he deliberately switch to ‘Fumu’?
“…I’m honored, Your Highness.”
“Oi, it’s about time for you to stop your deliberate act.”
“Haa…”
After Leonardo finished half of the sandwich, he furrowed his eyebrows. His expression seemed sour. Then, he glanced at Riol.
“Who’s actually paying attention to me, I’m not even sure anymore… what’s the point in pretending this late in the game? You won’t fool me, so stop that.”
If I stop, I might just kick you right now, Your Highness.
You must be careful of what you say—such is the danger of talking without thinking.
—in fact, Sharina had already raised one leg. However, she immediately remembered the consequences, and subsequently lowered it again.
…See? It’s because even in rage, I never stop thinking.
…Yup. It was totally not because of Riol who stuck close to her and pinched her face.
“Are you crazy—!?” He whispered.
“Could Your Highness be saying that we should be casual around you? We’re not worthy of such a grand act, Your Highness.” Sharina ‘humbly’ objected.
“Oi, Black Rat. Get away from her. Because of you, Uniquely Furred Cat isn’t behaving like her proper cat self!”
“…as you wish, Your Highness.” Riol obliged.
“Fun.” The Thief Prince started acting cocky again.
…I want to smack him down.
“Riol…”
But, alas, the prince had again given his command—Riol couldn’t help but obey. He quietly walked away, picked up his book, and started to leave.
“…after school, I’m waiting in front of the school building.”
“Ah—yes!!”
As he passed her, he gave her a gentle pat on the back—
—it was enough to fill Sharina with the energy of a hundred people.
“Finally, the nuisance has left. Now, you can finally take it easy.”
“…right.”
—no, it hasn’t. It’s still in front of my eyes, being such an eyesore.
She stepped back while withholding some curses.
“As a thanks for the sandwich, let me take you to a good place.”
“Eh? Kyaaaaaaaaa—!!”
Before she knew it, the prince was approaching her.
He snapped his finger, and a magic circle appeared under the two of them. From the circle, a strong gush of wind came forth. It only took the wind a few seconds to levitate them both.
“Here we go. Follow me—hm?”
As soon as she was about to be dragged towards Leonardo, the wind was dispelled and the magic circle destroyed—just like this morning.
“Ah…”
“…Is that amulet still nearby?”
Sharina’s body fell to ground as if nothing happened.
“Tch. Something gets in the way of our fun again. Alright, I’ll stop, I’ll stop…”
Leonardo, who was still floating midair, waved his hand in a lazy, but exaggerated manner.
“But, I’ll let this one go due to the sandwich. Nevertheless, tell the Black Rat: there mustn’t be a third time.”
Leonardo left in a lackluster manner—it was clear that his mood was clouded. When he disappeared off the building’s corner, something fell off Sharina’s back.
“Huh?”
—it was a single use paper amulet. Due to having fulfilled its duty, it fell off—
—…there’s no mistaking it, it’s Riol’s!
Before Riol left, he had stuck it there while pretending to pat her back.
“…I love you—!!!”
Cool…!! He’s just so cool…!!
Sharina gently picked up the fallen amulet and fondly embraced it to her chest. With eyes full of hearts, she swooned.
[1] Owl : Fukuro
[2] Thin paper: Bukuro
**T/N: …Yeeees~!!! Riol is so cooooooool~!!! *grow a pair of wings and high five with Sharina while floating mid-air
…–Uggh, the ore-sama prince is using power abuse again, I know that this is part of his ore-sama chara, but UGGH STOP MANHANDLING HER AND FOR ONCE, START ACTING LIKE AN ACTUAL PRINCE, PRINCE.
Honestly speaking, he should never cease to exist in the first place. If he’s acting like that to every woman on earth, then I would like him on court for disrespecting woman rights, ill manners, an abuse of power, personal lacking of budging into someone’s personal life and space, and for thieving. Hmph, I hope he suffers.
Prince is giving rapey vibes. Never asks for consent, refers to women as pets, and 100% sexist.
??????? Fucking prince
That’s it I’m rolling up my shirt sleeves to smack this BAKA OUJI GTFO
SHARINA X RIOL FOREVER!!!
I am here because of the whispers of a certain devil (named Antoinette Vanessa) who tempted me to read the latest chapters………curses now I have to wait for more.

Look at how arrogant his imposing look is.
Now the three of the look like a family. Riol the cool worrywart husband, Sharina the exaggerated in almost everything wife. The Prince who have oedipus complex and annoying that even his parents don’t like him….
And Gabe. This story sure get fluffy right off the bat. Not that im complaining.
Now that I take a closer look the prince ain’t the son he is the annoying thick-faced neighborhood kid who keeps on bothering the couple (at least on Sharina’s mind).
YEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!!! MOOOREEEEEE FLLLUUUUUUUUFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And yes the prince is infuriating!!!!! so much I wonder what they teach him at the royal palace and at school. They say if the teacher is a fool then the student would be the same so somebody tell me which fool taught this fool (aka prince) so I can scold him until his ears falls off
“Which fool taught this fool.”
-Gabe, 2019.
My internet is messed up so if you see comments repeating itself kindly ignore
To the fool who taught the prince,
Greetings. I am Gabe and I wrote this letter to ask in regard on how the prince acts. I would like to know just what kind of things have you taught him for him o grow up to become such a splendid man (sarcasm included).
In any case here is what I would like to say:
FIGHT ME YOU FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sincerely yours,
Gabe
Taking a closer look the prince is not the son. I retract my statement sorry. He is actually the annoying neighborhood kid who is thick faced, does not know what timing is and likes to impose on others……..
YEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!! MOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRREEEEE FLLLLLLUUUUUUUUUUFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!! THE PRINCE IS INFURIATING!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am now wondering about what he learns at school and home for him to be like that. My professor in college once said that the student is the same with the teacher, so if the teacher is a fool then the student will become a fool. Now considering this is the prince’s teacher annoying to?
To whomever teaches the prince,
FIGHT ME!!!!!! YOU FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. THAT INCLUDES YOU PRINCE CAUSE SOMEONE NEEDS TO TEACH YOU MANNERS!!!!!
Yours truly,
GABE
If your angry with him right now, wait till until later.
This is just the beginning of him being a complete creeper. He’s gonna escalate.
Uh oh… GABE MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET THE KNIFE READY AFTER ALL.
Uggghhhhh….. Let me kill that infuriating prince! I want to skin him alive and burn him.
C-cool down…
I am confident with my knife skills so contact me when you decided when
WHATS WRONG WITH BOTH OF YOU IS THE PRINCE THAT INFURIATING
Please don’t forget about the seasonings…..
I want to continue reading but something around the middle of my body starts churning everytime i see the embodiment of ntr
