Excuse me, whats your name?
A yellow-haired woman had pointed a finger at Carmine. I had truly hoped that we would have a bit more time. It had only been ten minutes since we entered the inn. The only reason I hadnt gone straight into an alley and portaled away is because I was concerned that wed be seen. If we got interrupted trying to leave the city, there was no saying what would happen. There was a backdoor to the inn, and we could slide into the alley that way, then teleport without being seen. Regrettably, I had failed to predict how quickly theyd respond.
It wasnt just anyone as well, but another yellow-haired woman. She must have sped over here as soon as she heard a yellow-haired person appeared in town. Now, with several armed men around her, she was pointing quite aggressively. However, Carmine barely responded to her aggressive acts, and I kept my face cool as well. The only one who gasped noticeably was Bernice, and everyone ignored her.
Me? The yellow-haired woman looked taken aback at being suddenly addressed. I am Princess Oliviana, daughter of the king.
Never heard of you.
E-e-excuse me!
I never heard the king had a daughter. I shrugged.
W-w-well, he did! She insisted, her fists on her hips.
How am I supposed to believe that? Frankly, you seem pretty suspicious to me.
S-s-s-suspicious? her face turned red, and she looked over at Carmine, who simply raised an eyebrow. H-how can I be suspicious?
First off, you dont act like a princess at all. Youre in armor, and you dont look nicely dressed at all.
Th-that weve been riding hard for a week! And I its for safety! She responded, defending herself.
As we spoke, her guards seemed mostly just confused. Their princess was the one who led them though, so they were merely waiting for her orders.
Safety? Perhaps I can believe such a thing, but would a princess the princess of the king of this great nation, actually just bust into an inn and start pointing at people?
My accusation caused her expression to turned shocked. Thats ah
See my lady, right here she hasnt said a word, because this is the public, and her noble beauty shant be defiled by interacting with the common riffraff!
There were a few mutters at that, especially from people who didnt like being called riffraff, but I kept my face completely straight. Of course, I was taking full advantage of the Mimic ability. How could I not pick up a few tricks after masquerading as so many people in the Twilight Dungeon? I was confident in my ability to infiltrate.
Th-thats true
And here you are having this conversation with me I snort.
Ah! I-Ive been defiled! The Princess gasped.
So, I crossed my arms. You can excuse me if I wonder, which woman here is truly worthy of being called a noble.
She shook for a second, and then spun around. Guards! Why have you let me defile myself!
The guards look on in utter confusion, but the leader finally stepped forward. S-sorry maam! Its just you always like being in charge. Your father kept saying that you should act more like a lady
Geh! These words seemed to be an even bigger blow than anything I had said.
I-I must go change into something befitting a princess immediately! She cried out.
Y-yes, maam! The men salute, and then the group of them all left the inn.
I let out a sigh. Thankfully, she was an idiot.
