Happy Wednesday!
Here’s the chapter, enjoy.
ED: Ignite
Following up on Kyousuke’s warning, my eyes never left Amelia.
Of course, it was impossible for my eyes to always be on her, so I used my trump card.
Why did Gram’s name come out of Kyousuke’s mouth, what did he have to do with this pageant, there were a bunch of things that I was curious about, but for now, let’s enjoy the festival.
『Entry number 291! Princess Amelia!!』
After the Kansai dialect girl and the other girl who had good style, Amelia’s name was called.
The venue shook with excitement.
It seems that Amelia’s popularity was higher than I thought.
I could feel the excitement in the air rising.
The moment Amelia came on stage wearing a beautiful dress made up of freshly picked green leaves, no one could take their eyes off her.
Her snow white hair dangled beautifully from her shoulders while her scarlet eyes were sparkling due to the reflection of the spotlight.
There were a few accessories affixed onto her pointed ears that were a characteristic of the elves, which served to highlight Amelia’s charm.
While there were many foolish looking men whose jaws dropped when they looked at Amelia, my eyes never left Amelia either.
「…so pretty.」
It couldn’t be helped that I muttered this.
Amelia was usually proud of her beauty that set her apart from the others, but when I see her dressed up like this and wearing a dress, it overshadowed even her usual appearance.
Come to think of it, I heard that for the people who decide to take part in the spur of the moment, they would be loaned clothing.
Amelia, who was on stage, and my gaze intersected, and we looked into each other’s eyes.
Amelia flashed a bewitching smile at me who was staring dumbfoundedly, and then winked.
「「「Uwoooooooooooooooooohh!!!?」」」
The shouts that were overflowing from the mouths of the men shook the earth.
She walked down to the edge of the stage, and then turned around and walked back. Even when they couldn’t see Amelia anymore, the cheers did not end.
「…haha…it’s true that women are vixens.」
I put a hand on my forehead and gave a dry laugh.
I didn’t think that the Amelia who made people around her back away due to her stuffing food into her mouth like a binge eater just a few hours ago would gain a point over me. Who’d have thought that the binge-eater Amelia who would scare away any onlookers could have such a dazzling smile to her…she got me yet again.
I fell in love with her more and more.
Looking around at the surrounding people, the women were excitedly talking about Amelia’s beauty, and the men were dazedly staring at the stage, as if Amelia was still standing there.
At present, I didn’t sense anything that raised my suspicions.
『The excitement at all venues has reached its peak!! Next is entry number 292! Rusty!!』
Looking up at the stage while the excitement was still lingering in the air, Latisneil, who was wearing her hood, walked onto the stage, full of momentum, with a self-confident smile on her lips.
The venue had suddenly grown quiet, potentially because everyone had braced themselves in antic.i.p.ation over what sort of face was concealed by her cloak.
Everyone’s gazes focused on her, wondering when she was going to take her hood off, and their expectations rapidly rose.
Curious as to what the demon king’s daughter looked like, I was also looking at the stage.
In the center of the stage, Latisneil slowly touched her hood.
The place was so silent, that one could hear someone gulping.
The hood fell.
「…ha.」
「「Ooooooohhhhhhhhh!!!!」」
Hair and eyes the color of amethysts, and it was clear from her military-type clothing that she was wearing on her upper body that she had outstanding proportions.
The bottom was a skirt, and her bare feet were exposed without regret.
Although her face was slightly inferior to Amelia’s, she had refined features, and perhaps it was due to the effect of it being hidden beforehand, or maybe it was because the color of her hood was plain, but the loosely curled violet hair that suddenly fell down was the prettiest out of all the contestants that came before her.
If Amelia was sculpted to perfection, then Latisneil;s body was humanly voluptuous.
If I were to say which one was more popular with men, it would of course be Latisneil.
That is to say, and this was not the best way to put it, but it seems like it would be a one-on-one match between Amelia who had a nice face and Latisneil who had a good body.
At present, there was no woman who could rival these two people, and most likely, there never will be.
Or rather, if such a peerless beauty appeared, the surrounding reactions would be beyond comprehension.
『…well then, please enter your votes for this year’s beauty pageant! Those who wish to vote only need to pour your magic power into the panels that have been installed at each venue, and trace the entry number onto the screen!…』
I manipulated a nearby panel, while listening to the host whose voice was coming from who knows where.
Of course, I drew Amelia’s number.
After waiting for a message confirming the completion of the voting process, I walked towards Amelia and the others.
