Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival-Chapter 202.4

The door opened and a sharp-eyed man in his late forties or so entered the reception room. He had been standing by His Majesty’s side during the audience, staring at us keenly.

The Prime Minister, the Count Melrose Frontier…. He was from the Melrose family, the source of my peach-colored hair, as the spirit had said.

That meant he was a possible blood relative of my mother, someone I had avoided getting involved with for a long time.

“You may remain seated.”

Returning us to our seats as we were getting up, the Prime Minister looked at my face and hair, contemplated for a second or two, and then immediately sat down on the vacant single-seat sofa.

“Before I get to the point, let me thank you.”

***

“–Thank you for accepting my request on such short notice. His Majesty has offered to give you a sufficient reward.”

“You don’t have to thank us. We are grateful to you for choosing us, since our members were involved as well.”

At the words of the Prime Minister, Bert Fa Melrose, Dalton of Rainbow Sword bowed his head in fancy language.

It was not often that one could find adventurers as trustworthy as they were; Dalton and his team truly did exactly what Bert expected them to do. Not only did they meet Bert’s expectations as Prime Minister, but also Bert’s personal desire to bring back not only the princess, but also this “girl”.

Baroness Aria Layton. She was a Dragon Slayer girl who had single-handedly protected the princess, and her prestige was well-known even in the underworld.

A girl with peach-blond hair, who had been reported to him before. He had heard of her appearance from reports. He had seen her from afar. However, the first time he had seen her up close was in the audience, and this was the first time he had made eye contact with her.

Bert was surprised. Her face and hair color were reminiscent of his youngest daughter, who had eloped with someone and died.

Only her eyes were different from her daughter’s. The color of those eyes were the same jade green eyes as Bert’s.

That alone was enough to make him feel a blood connection. After all, the girl who called herself Alicia at the orphanage was not her granddaughter.

However, he heard that the girl was now on good terms with the Crown Prince, the King’s brother, and the grandson of the temple’s head. If the Crown Prince and the King’s brother were to be removed simply because they were suspicious, they would be expelled from the royalist faction, and the country would be further disturbed.

Also, it was difficult to cancel the adoption with the Melrose branch, which was a direct branch of the main family, based on Bert’s intuition alone. Unless of course, if the girl in front of him now, Aria, turned out to be the real Alicia…

“Aria, right? Thank you for your efforts on this occasion.”

“I am humbled by your words, Your Excellency.”

Aria also responded to in Bert’s words, but her voice was also very similar to Bert’s daughter’s, and the thought came to me. wondered how much adversity and hardship this girl had to go through to gain such power.

“…His Majesty said that he would give you one of his magic tools from the treasury with his compliments. An object that obscures your perception, but not strong in terms of power. Perhaps it will only be able to obscure the appraisals of fools…who cannot perceive strength in their own skin. Do you know the meaning of this?”

“Yes.”
