The Villainess Is A Guy?! B×B
Chapter Four
And so, I left the palace of the Camilius family to attend a banquet thrown by the imperial family.
Idris Lan Camilius
I never knew..carriages were this uncomfortable...
???
Did your lordship say something?
Idris Lan Camilius
Nothing..*Starts having motion sickness*
Please let me get there before I die!?

Mother, father, you haven't went in yet?
Ancelin Lan Camilius
Greetings first, Idris
Idris Lan Camilius
R-Right. Greetings, mother. Greetings, father.
Liat Lan Camilius
We just arrived some time ago and decided to wait on you before heading in.
Liat Lan Camilius
It's your first party in a while, you must feel uncomfortable
Liat Lan Camilius
Especially since you woke up from your three day slumber just today.
Idris Lan Camilius
I..am a bit lightheaded. I assume.
Liat Lan Camilius
Really? Leave whenever you wish to. I don't think anyone will question your absence.
Ancelin Lan Camilius
Leave whenever you want to? He can't just do that. This is the party organized by the royal family, without their permission—
Liat Lan Camilius
Not necessary. I will deal with them if needed later on.
Liat Lan Camilius
You got it right, Idris?
Idris Lan Camilius
Yes, father.
Liat Lan Camilius
Now let's head in..
Ancelin Lan Camilius
Tsk..

Empress Keira
My, I was so worried when I heard about you lord Idris!
Idris Lan Camilius
Greetings to your majesty. I am very sorry to have caused you worry, your highness.
Empress Keira
You should be more worried about how your mother would feel.
Empress Keira
Rather, it seems like she is in a bad mood because of this.
Ancelin Lan Camilius
S-Sorry?
Empress Keira
Is a smile too expensive to wear on you face on such a happy occasion, your highness?
Liat Lan Camilius
My apologies, she wasn't feeling too well during the carriage ride.
Ancelin Lan Camilius
...I..I am..uhm..
Liat Lan Camilius
Tch, don't get all flustered Infront of her majesty. It's disrespectful.
They have never liked the idea of my mom marrying my dad.
The empress's social circle consisting of the most powerful and rich novels never accepted my mother though she began the lady of the Camilius household, the second richest in the nation.
Idris Lan Camilius
Ahem, rather your highness, where is prince Calix? I should definitely congratulate him for his contribution to the war!
A war that broke out between the north and east region. It ended after a whole 4 years. His majesty, the second prince was the leading commander for the entire four years.
Calix De Pers, the second crowned prince, who is also a acquaintance of mine.
Empress Keira
He is over there, surrounded by the ladies coming from various noble families.
Idris Lan Camilius
As expected, the lord looks stiff and awkward around them.
Empress Keira
Right? That's what I thought too. Alas, how will he get a wife this way?
Idris Lan Camilius
You need not worry your highness, there is no one in the capital who doesn't admire his majesty.
Empress Keira
What light lips you possess. Haha, you have surely lightened up my mood.
Empress Keira
Care to join me for tea sometime? After the banquet of course.
Idris Lan Camilius
It would be a pleasure, your majesty.
Empress Keira
Now then, I am busy with the guests. Enjoy yourselves.
Idris Lan Camilius
Have a wonderful time, your highness.
Liat Lan Camilius
My, since when were you so close to her highness?
No..I just..practiced speaking like this through all the fantasy mangas I learned in my previous life..
Idris Lan Camilius
It just happened..
Liat Lan Camilius
I'll go have a chat with the emperor and the other nobles.
Ancelin Lan Camilius
I shall help the empress..
And I...shall stand alone in the corner so I don't have to talk to any stingy nobles!!
???
Idris Lan Camilius, was it?
