BXBX NOVEL Chapter 310: Intermission (The Negative Princess)
「So do I, Earth. I hope to be happy, the two of us… no, with this child in my belly, the three of us.」
In front of me was a couple in a tuxedo and pure white wedding dress.
The two are about to become “husband and wife”.
Blessed by many people, they are smiling happily at each other at the center of it all.
Ever since I was a child, I thought I would be the one standing at that place, wearing that dress.
But it’s different…
「Nnmh.」
「♡」
Applause erupted as the two pressed their lips together.
All I can do is watch it.
「Tsu… uh…」
Such despair that I want to destroy the scene in front of me… I want to bash my head in… what despair ……
In addition……
「Ohhohohoho, Honey! How mean of you, it’s not just the three of you, is it? You need to make us happy along with Sasuke and Sakura!」
「Yeah, I know. I mean… I also have ‘three’ wives… well, this is the future I wanted.」
「Anh ♡」
A sudden intrusion…or so I thought, but Earth accepted it as normal.
Suddenly making out in front of me? It’s not that.
「You guys … I’ll definitely make you happy.」
「Fufufu, thank you. Then, I’ll make you even happier.」
Shinobu was holding two babies in her arms.
Earth hugged the three of them as if he was wrapping them all in his arms.
It is truly a close-knit “family”.
And……
「Oh my, Little man, so heated. But, you must be having a lot of trouble because you can’t 〇〇〇 with Kron who is pregnant, or with Shinobu who is tired from raising your children, right? Then please feel free to use me.」
「Ah, h, hey…」
「Oh my, no matter how old you are, you’re still naive, aren’t you ♪?」
What I’ve always wanted is to be seen by Earth as a ‘woman’.
That gaze has never been directed at me.
And……
「Ara! It’s our first night as newlyweds, so of course I’ll be participating today! Don’t worry, there are things you can do even if you’re pregnant!」
「Ufufufu, don’t underestimate me just because I’ve given birth. Mommy is going to hustle today too ♡.」
「Then tonight… let’s all love each other ♡.」
I guess this is what they call a “harem”.
「Yeah, I’m going to take care of you all together today!」
And among them I … I…
“Uooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! It’s not real! I… I will never allow such a possible future!!! I will not allow it! This is the one thing I won’t give up either!!”
The next moment, I screamed from the bottom of my heart.
“Haa, ha, ha, ha… goodness… what a nightmare… I imagined something terrible… Fantasy Magic, 【Vier】…… it’s terrifying.”
Even though I was in a dream, my heart felt like it was about to break.
My whole body was exhausted.
I never thought I would be able to reproduce my delusions so faithfully.
And……
“And… this…… is not something that can be dismissed as just a delusion…”
Yes. It was a delusion. But that doesn’t mean it can’t happen in reality.
Even if the harem is overkill, someone who was in it may be standing next to Earth in the future.
She could wear a wedding dress and marry Earth.
She could also give birth to Earth’s child and become a happy family.
She could also be desired by Earth as a woman and flirt with him.
It wouldn’t be strange if one of those three ended up with Earth someday.
And what about me?
I can’t do anything, I’m out of the loop, I’m just the loser… it’s not impossible.
No…..
“Far from being impossible… in the first place, it’s more likely that this will happen at this point…”
Yes, this is a future that could become the default route if things remain as they are now.
I, who from a very young age had the ludicrous assumption that Earth and I were in love with each other and understood each other, should always be prepared for the worst possible scenario.
Yes, the worst…
“The worst future… kuh… fu~… I’m shameful too… it’s also one of the happiest futures for Earth… and the worst… for me… just for me… seriously, don’t make me laugh, Phianse. After all, I only thought about myself… and I always have…”
Unable to even celebrate Earth’s happiness, I cry out about being unhappy and in despair.
When I look back at myself in this way, I realize how foolish I am.
Goodness, I thought Earth and I were falling in love.
But that’s why…
“I will not end up …… disappointed in myself …… like this…”
I’ll stand against it.
Really. Seriously. And refine myself.
That’s what I swore.
――It’s time to start from scratch. I won’t lose to you, who wants to go out into the world and live freely…as a princess, as a warrior, as a woman… I… I will aim higher. Right now, from this moment
In the Heavenly World, when I faced Earth with my true feelings for the first time…
「Oh my? Earth, that person… she’s scary. She’s trying to take away our happiness…」
「Hmph, what use is a defeated heroine when we are so happy together?」
「We don’t have time to play with the princess. We must eat something hearty and get ready for the night. Today, I will put the children to bed early, and you too Little man … Ufufufu ♡」
Until recently, whenever the girls in my class started to take a liking to Earth, I would impatiently do things that showed my possessiveness or say something unfavorable about Earth.
But not anymore.
「The bridegroom … I’m not going to take him away, but let’s have them fight me, shall we? I don’t know Kron’s power, so I can’t use her… Shinobu’s strength is close to my current self… and Sadiz stronger than me right now…」
I will surely hone everything about myself so that someday, I will be seen as a woman.
