The Hero Proposed to Me

When the prince formally thanked me, Louis, standing next to him, wore an arrogant face.

What are you doing?

What is he doing? Currently thanking me. Ive decided not to miss this opportunity, although its a little unreasonable.

The crown prince is perfect like a male lead, so he doesnt face a crisis but I guess this is fine.

Therefore, the opportunity to erase this new debt would rarely come.

Moreover, the name Marquis Romford is familiar to me. Suddenly, like as if a lught bulb lit up on top of my head, I remembered.

The Marquis of Romford, one of the Empresss pillars, used to interrupt Alexs work on every occasion since he was to be sworn as State Secretary.

It is not easy to withdraw once you are appointed to be Prime Minister, but if corruption is discovered in the candidates status, it can be easily withdrawn.

If thats the case, the Crown Princes future will be solid. In other words, the hindrance itself has been uprooted and thrown away.

Ciel, Louis, where are you?

brother Isaac!

Big brother Isaac, who just came after doing something inside the Palace, came to pick us up. My brother found the Prince standing next to us and immediately said hello.

Greetings Your Highness, Prince Alex.

Get up.

I guess its time for us to part ways. See you next time.

Before the formal banquet begins, the crown prince should be already in the party. Brother Isaac reached out to take us both.

But Alex took the lead first.

Your Highness?

Id be honored to escort my benefactor.

As expected, the treatment of benefactors changed greatly when they come and light up the path.

Ill take Siel.

No. Ill take her.

I am grateful that Alex suddenly supported me like this. I gladly responded to the Princes escort.

So we climbed onto the railing and hid on the terrace. As the curtains were not drawn, the four of us were able to watch my sisters debut ball over the window.

Big been ther Isaac, I think my older sister will soon make her entrance.

Oh, yes. All right. Your Majesty, please take care of my brother and sister.

For Claras brilliant debut, I asked Isaac to also escort her.

Once relieved that the Crown Prince was watching over me and Louis, Isak rushed to escort Clara.

Everything is going well. As brother Isaac disappeared far away, I sneaked a glance and brought it up.

Your Majesty, you can also go now.

Are you asking me to leave you two alone?

Alex seemed unwilling to attend the ball, and wanted to stay outside instead.

Of course hell be like that, because Ive crushed all the flags. It was a little twisted, but if it was the original story, my sister would have been crying alone in the garden because her partner was stolen by Siel.

Alex, who was wandering around the garden like before, takes pity on my crying sister and offered to be her escort. But now Clara has Theo and Izak side by side as her escort.

So there is no reason for the Crown Prince to go to the party. Perhaps the fact that he wandered around the garden itself was to play hooky.

However, if this continues, the male lead Alex will be absent from Claras debut ball. I threw the bait on Alex, its already difficult as it is.

Isnt it the right time to announce it?

Announce what?

My idiot brother, please step aside. I pushed Louis aside and looked straight up at Alex.

Alex also looked inside to see if the Emperor, Empress Lautte, and other nobles are there in case he accepts.

The ripple effect would have been considerable as all the leading nobles in the capital gathered except for Duke of Valentine himself.

That makes sense.

You should also dance with my sister.

Ill do that.

After he agreed with me, Alex nodded once and left the terrace.

What the hell were you talking about?

Brother Louis is still lost about whats happening. I explained it with a twitch on my left eye.

That paper was suspicious earlier. So I told his Majesty the Prince to tell his father.

You told him to tell the Emperor?

Yes!

Children need simplified answers. Louis looked surprised to hear that I had just ordered the Prince.

Louis didnt really like someone who snitchs, its like a thief doing his usual sin. Of course, what I did was not snitching, but more like justice.

Louis and I hid from a distance and peeked inside to see the Prince. I couldnt hear what he was saying but I could see the Emperor calling in his aide with a firm face.

He succeeded in putting light on the matter just like that. Breaking the flag of death once more, Big sisters debut ball then began without any hitch.

Numerous different dishes, well-dressed people under the lights, and delicious food. Adults banquets, which are not allowed to children, looked much more colorful and enjoyable than my birthday party.

Its so pretty. I cant wait to debut.

Yeah. Adults are unfair.

Me and Louis almost pressed our faces against the glass and found Clara.

Hey, here they come!

Wow, thats great.

Clara appeared, twinkling in gold.

Theo, who looked just like Father, had a nervous face, and Isaac, who looked like Mother, glanced at us without anyone noticing.

And I saw Clara in the middle. Wearing a White dress under beautiful lighting, she looked like a pure White Goddess.

So pretty. Shes pretty. Somehow I felt like I was watching my daughter getting married, so I wiped my tears with my sleeve.

Im so touched.

Im really proud of her.

Louis laughed at me. Who cares? Our pretty Clara, please walk on a flowery path from now on.

Looking happy, Clara was escorted by our two wonderful brothers and greeted the Emperor. It doesnt matter if she is adopted, she also been consolidates as a daughter of the Valentines.

And soon the dance time began.

Is the first dance with Theo?

Thats because he escorted her. Are you a fool?

I know that.

Theo and Clara looked pretty good together, too. Watching the two people dancing, I eagerly searched for Alexs whereabouts.

Why are you there?

I ended up muttering to myself without realizing it. The Emperor grabbed Alex and was talking hard about something.

Somehow I had an ominous feeling. Even if I intervened, the two expected the romance flag to bloom, but after this happened, the contact point between the two disappeared.

Is this better for me? On top of that, Theo and Clara, who were dancing, somehow looked pretty good.

Louis, Ciel! Youre hungry, arent you?

Wow! Snacks!

Brother Isaac, who had just escorted sister, came towards us. Come to think of it, I was quite hungry because it was already late.

For us who are cold and hungry outside, my brother gave us warm tea, cookies, and blankets from the kitchen. As expected, Isaac is the only one.

Covering myself with a cozy blanket, I took a sip of the tea handed over by Isaac. The three of us sat side by side on the terrace and looked inside the colorful banquet hall with quality black tea with lemons on top of it.

Hey, look over there.

Louis pointed. Finally Alex finished the conversation with his father and approached Clara.

I knew this was gonna happen.

Is the Prince asking Clara to dance?

What, is that real?

At Louiss words, Isaac was startled and slammed his head into the glass door.

Whats wrong?

Prince Alex is famous for his dislike of prom. He doesnt like dancing.

Even if Alex doesnt like it, the dance was very beautiful. Like in the novel itself, they both look like a real couple.

Yeah, thats how it works. I wanted them to dance for a few more songs, but unfortunately, the two danced only one song and stepped back lightly.

Now my mission is over, I relaxed but Clara suddenly started looking around and walked towards us.

Huh?

Clara found three of us sitting side by side on the terrace. With no time to escape, the three of us were caught by Clara, who ran at the speed of light.

Siel! How can you be here?

How did you know sister?

It was very funny how I wrapped my blanket around myself and had snacks in my mouth. I didnt know what to say, but Clara came up to me.

Clara hugged me squatting on the floor without worrying about getting her dress dirty.

Sister?

I heard something dangerous happened earlier.

Alex, you traitor. Why did you say that to her? Isaac, who doesnt know anything, interrogated Louis

What do you mean by dangerous?

Uhyou see Brother

I left Claras embrace to say the details. It was nerve-wracking, but it was amazing to see that I did it safely without shaking.

Icame here to see you debut.

Siel.

Our Clara was the prettiest. Shes best.

Before I knew it, Claras eyes were filled with tears. I wiped away her tears gently and smiled softly. Clara shed tears and smiled back.

What the hell are you guys doing here?

Finally, even Big brother Theo, who was looking for Clara, found us. Then Prince Alex approached us. Now that Im caught by the ever strict Theo, Ill have scold him later.

Its all because of Alex. While Isaac was being scolded for bringing his younger siblings, I approached Alex who stood next to him and blamed him. Your highness, why did you tel sister?

Arent you asking me to tell her that, is there any problem?

I was speechless when he proudly asked me what the problem was. Did he misunderstand when I said that he should dance with my sister as a means to let her know that Im here?

For whatever reason, if it wasnt for Alex, Clara wouldnt even have noticed that I was here. Perhaps thats why, Clara wiped away her tears and thanked Prince Alex.

Thank you very much for letting me know, Your highness. I almost didnt know my siblings were here.

I owe you one.

I like the warm atmosphere, but thats it. If we spend more time here,Mother might catch us.

Its time to go back. Lets go, Clara.

Theo took Clara away and we, the remaining siblings slowly began to prepare to leave. I tried to get out of my seat after shaking off my dress, but Alex reached out to me.

Lets go together.
