　I, Ninaev Fairley, am now officially engaged to be wed to the Seventh Prince of the Kingdom of Migga, the Hiccuped Migga. The Fifth Princess and the Seventh Prince. An engagement between two royal families with little influence over each other. Nevertheless, there is no mistaking an engagement between two royal families, so our engagement will be celebrated with great fanfare.

　Alice-sama's mother is ill. Her father seems to be distrustful of this fact. The Grand Temple has come out strongly against the royal family due to the fact that they are protecting the Goddess. It is because there is a girl on hand who has the name "Kamiko," the Son of God.

　In spite of the existence of the "Kamiko-sama," our country has not seen anything good happen either. Or rather, I should say that after protecting Alice-sama, the divine child, there has been a gradual series of bad harvests and so on. If ...... it really is true that, hypothetically, Alice-sama is not a godchild, can we say that the situation is because the real godchild has left this country?

　"God will not allow the land where the divine child is located to be deserted.

　If the reason why our country has had good harvests and good conditions up to now is because Kamiko-sama was here.

　If it is because Kamiko-sama left this land that our country is in this situation.

　---How foolish were the Great Temple of our country and our royal family who thought that the situation would get worse if they did not get Alice-sama's good mood, and acted in the attitude that as long as they got Alice-sama's good mood, it would not matter what they did? How foolish they were to have acted in such a way.

　If Alice-sama is not a child of God, no matter how much we continue to fulfill her wishes, the situation in our country will only get worse. I honestly think that both your father and the Great Temple are overconfident in the power of the divine child. That is why they are convinced that everything will be fine, that everything will be as it should be if the divine son is in a good mood. It is because of this belief that I think, in the frontier area, that Father has not properly planned countermeasures. This frontier area also had a bad harvest. But if the lords, myself, and the people here worked hard on countermeasures, we were able to manage it. That's the way it is in the outlying areas. I thought that if the royal capital put more effort into countermeasures, they could do something about the problem of crop failure.

　Alice-sama, who may not be a real godchild.

　In that case, the real Kamiko-sama who may not even know where she is.

　And our country, which is clearly going to be destroyed as it is.

　It makes me want to hold my head in my hands. Your father has incorporated the existence of a god-sama to such an extent that even from the frontier, we can see that the kingdom of Fairytorov is conducting its national government on the premise that it has a god-sama in its hands. It was written in the letter from Father that as part of the work of the divine child, Alice-sama would also go on a journey to visit various places in the country, but I think it would be difficult to let Alice-sama out of the country in such a condition. I wonder if I can stand in for her.

　In the first place, is Alice-sama really not a child of God?

　Various thoughts were going round and round in my head.

　First of all, I have to ask Hiccup when I meet him. About those words.

　Before I could calm down and talk to Hiccup-sama, I had to overcome the ceremony for the announcement of the engagement.

　However, I am a princess who has come to this place because of the displeasure of Alice-sama, the divine child. And Hiccup-sama is also a prince of low rank, the seventh prince. Because of this relationship, there was no need for us to make a grand ceremony in the royal capital of each other's country. But the reason why we had to unveil our engagement was to let the people of each other's country know that the kingdom of Fairytorov and the kingdom of Migga were not at loggerheads.

　So a small engagement ceremony was held in the city where I am staying, the city where Ananaro and Master Hiccup are staying.

　I thought that Master Hiccup, dressed in formal attire, was beautiful, although that may not be the word I would use for a man.

　I got engaged because I was curious about Hiccup's words, but ...... if nothing happens as it is, I will be married to Hiccup. Of course, if nothing else happens.

　But I think it is a good thing for me that I have made a connection with Master Hiccup in this way. Depending on the situation in the country, I could have been engaged to someone I didn't want at all, no matter how high a status I had as a princess.

　Mr. Hiccup was a man of few words. His eyes were still tinged with melancholy, and I wondered why he smiled that way. Why does he smile like that? I wondered. I, too, am royalty, so I wear the mask of a princess. But her eyes were too cold for someone only two years older than me.

　The eyes he turns on me and the eyes he turns on others are the same. Hiccup's eyes have always remained gloomy.

I would like to talk to my fiancée, Hiccup. May I ask you to step back?"

　I said to my attendants after the betrothal ceremony. Hiccup must have imagined that I would want to talk to him. He did not seem surprised. Hiccup also made his attendants stand back. I feigned innocence, wanting to talk more with the prince who had become my fiancée, but I think Hondetta, who had been by my side the whole time, knew that I did not simply like Hiccup and wanted to talk to him.

　The servants at each other's side admonished me that it was dangerous, but somehow we were able to have a conversation alone. However, they are still standing outside the door.

　(The princess continues to think. The meaning of the prince's words. And about her own country. Wanting to know, she asked the prince, and he answered. (The answer further confuses the princess's mind.)
