"...... I see. I heard that you've been studying a lot more lately, is something wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, no, nothing at all. I'm just studying to make up for my inexperience.

"From my point of view, Stella is doing well. No, rather, she seems to be working too hard. I am afraid that you will break down.

　Stella smiled as she accepted her father's words of concern for his daughter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you for your concern. But I will be fine. I will study harder and harder so that everyone will recognize me as a princess.

"...... I see."

"Oh, by the way, Father. What brings you to see me today?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, yes. There's someone I'd like you to meet.

"For me?　Is it the boy over there?"

Yes. Sam."

　Sam, who had been watching the conversation between father and daughter, rushed to his knees to greet the caller.

"Well, it's nice to meet you. My name is Samuel Scheidt.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nice to meet you. My name is Stella Isle-Sky. It's nice to meet you.

　Stella gave Sam a kind smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She seemed much more friendly than I had imagined.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that she is staying in the house to study, not because she is sick of the world.

"Stella."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes."

Sam is the man you're going to marry.

"--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I brought you here today to see you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Stella's body jumped as soon as she was told that Sam was the man she was going to marry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her reaction was frightened, as if something she had feared had just happened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When I looked at her face, the smile was gone before I knew it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She looked as if she was about to cry, but bit her lip as if she would not cry.

"...... does that mean you are banishing me from the royal family?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Banished?　What are you talking about?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The king was bewildered, not understanding the meaning of his daughter's words.

　Stella screamed out with a trembling voice.

Rachel told me!　Father, who is not fond of me, is going to marry me off to some nobleman!　And this must be the girl!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Rachel. Where did you pick up such a ridiculous rumor? Calm down, Stella. It's a misunderstanding. It is true that I wanted to marry you off, but I did not mean to alienate you. It is because I love you that I want to take you out of the palace and set you free."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But I am a princess!　I haven't done anything as a princess yet!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Do you think it's princess-like to just stay in a room like this and study?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（Oh, shit. I interrupted you. I was trying to stay out of it.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Stella was irritated that the king seemed to be listening to her and not to be listening to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps she is unable to accept her father's words as they are because she has a preconceived notion of what Princess Rachel has told her, but knowing the King's concern for his daughter, she is annoyed that he does not seem to understand her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why do I have to say such a thing to you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's listen to what the king has to say. The king told me that he loves Stella too. But you stubbornly refuse to believe the King's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I am..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't understand what you mean by admitting or not admitting that you are a princess in the first place. You are a princess, aren't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam stands up and looks straight at Stella.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She meets Sam's gaze and continues speaking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

People think I am a child of iniquity!　Because of this hair!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I know."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"How I - no, your mother and father - have been disgusted by the words of such heartless people!　Therefore, I must be recognized by everyone as a princess, the true daughter of my beloved parents!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Nonsense."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Whether it was in front of the king or the princess, I had reached the end of my patience.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I sympathize with Stella's discomfort at being suspected of being the son of a wrongdoer because of her white hair.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I also feel sorry that she is being used as a topic of conversation by the aristocrats who have nothing better to do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But..,

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Why do you care what people say about you when your parents love you as their daughter?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What do you know!　I have been told since my birth that I am a child of iniquity, and that is how I feel!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't like the fact that Stella is only concerned about the voices of those around her, even though she is loved by her parents and recognized as their daughter.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was as if she was looking at herself, who used to want to run away from home, but couldn't do so and was still brooding over it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I don't understand. "No, I don't know, but I can see that you are stubborn. It's really nonsense."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"-- you!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Stella's sticking hand came flying at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I was able to grab it easily before her slender hand reached Sam.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let go of me!　It's disrespectful!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"King, may I be excused for a moment?　I promise I won't do anything dangerous."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, yeah, no problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Now, if you'll excuse me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam moves to the window, holding Stella's arm, and opens the window.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He then took her in a princess hug.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, you!　Stop it!　What are you doing?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're so stuffed up in this room that you can't think about anything else. Let's look at the bigger world."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you talking about, huh?　What?　Hey, wait a minute, stop--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Holding Stella in his arms, Sam put his foot on the window.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay, let's go."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He flew into the sky in a great leap.
