Myra-sama stood up with a yip and looked down at His Majesty, who was still sitting in his chair, with a blank expression on her face.

「If you just shut up and listen… she can say whatever she wants, Your Majesty.」

「Myra…?」

There was no Myra-sama, who had been smiling innocently just a few minutes before.

「How arrogant… how selfish.」

The whispery, quiet tone of Myra-sama’s voice made it impossible for anyone to speak.

「I know that, too. I know that what Your Majesty is saying is not wrong.」

But, her words continue.

「There are ways to say it!!」

The tea cup clanked.

「But wouldn’t you have wanted Marsha to be her nanny, Myra?」

「That’s not what I’m talking about.」

「Then what’s the point?」

I was stunned by the fact that His Majesty and Myra-sama ignored me and continued to talk without regard to me, even though it was about me.

「Marsha, who always puts away difficult problems with a “no big deal” look on her face, is at a loss for words. Has that ever happened to her before? I’m just saying, why can’t you say it in a more Marsha-friendly way?」

「But I am the king of…」

「This isn’t the time for an audience.」

No, no, no, no, wait, wait, Myra-sama.

「Uhm, Myra-sama, please calm down.」

I’m glad you’re mad at me for my sake. But, His Majesty, he’s still covered in tea, I’ll just bring him some wipes!

「You know, Marsha. I wish you could be my nanny, too. But that is only possible with your happy marriage.」

As I hurriedly picked up the wipes, Myra-sama clutched my hand with each one. Although she appeals to me with her sincere eyes, the idea of a happy marriage seems like something else to me.

「Your Majesty, you know that Marsha did not break off the engagement to protect me.」

Leaving me alone, Myra-sama turns to His Majesty again.

「What more do you want from a woman who has devoted herself to us for nine years? You know how precious these nine years are for a woman. She spent it on us. Am I wrong in wanting to repay that thought?」

No, no. It’s not just for Myra-sama.

I didn’t break the engagement, at least not without my own selfishness in it. So there is no need for Myra-sama to be heartbroken about it.

「So I say it’s time to break off the engagement and move on.」

「Did you not say with that mouth of yours that even that no-talent is fine?」

「If that thing is in Marsha’s mind, that means we’ll consider it too.」

And to think that they thought that thing had a heart! Thanks to this, the jittery pain was so unexpected that it blew away somewhere else.

「I want Marsha to have the marriage she wants. I want Marsha to be married to a man who will say it has to be Marsha. Not with a man who is a no-talent who has left his heart for another woman, by any chance.」

Myra-sama then took a small, deep breath, pulled the wipe out of my hand, placed it on His Majesty’s cheek, and gently wiped it. Then, she put her lips close to my ear.

「As I have come to like His Majesty, so He has come to like me.」

Myra-sama’s fingers gently touched His Majesty’s lips as if she was whispering to him in a friendly manner, a complete change from the previous conversation.

「We want Marsha to marry someone like that.」

Did Myra-sama’s sighing appeal move His Majesty’s heart, or is he simply melting down with his younger wife? His Majesty, who is definitely the latter, took Myra-sama’s hand and dropped a kiss on it.

「My wife is so sweet…」

「Fufu, I’m your wife after all.」

And then, a turnaround from the acrimonious atmosphere, the two enter the world together.

Okay, that’s impossible. Okay, sorry, I can’t!!

This is not the first time today that these two are in love with each other, so there is no problem about their world. What’s impossible, what did you just say, Myra-sama?

『As I have come to like His Majesty, so He has come to like me.』

『We want Marsha to marry someone like that.』

Who? With me? Okay, that’s an impossible task!

Not only to find a marriage partner, but also to be a couple of bachelors who flirt with each other everywhere like these two. Oops, they’re my Lords.

Even His Majesty seems to have bonded with Myra-sama, but in fact, he hasn’t.

『Your marriage is a done deal, but as my lovely wife wishes, go find someone like us who will be a blessing to everyone. Of course, you must be in love with him.』

Of course they’re going to say that. Rather, by order.

Thanks to Myra-sama’s advice to His Majesty on my behalf, more difficulties will fall upon me than His Majesty demanded in the beginning. It’s supposed to be for me, but alas, it hasn’t been for me at all. In fact, it’s made it worse.

It’s not that I don’t want to have such a marriage, too, if I could. But from a practical point of view, the best I can hope for is a loveless political marriage or a backward family.

I am glad that Myra-sama thinks of me that way. I think that is the best proof that Myra-sama is happy. If I could, I would make it happen. But, you know what?

「I’ve never even been on a date, so it’s more of an impossible task to find a man who would say such a thing to me, Myra-sama…」
