Nikami POV
"I could hear you from over there if you do gossip about someone, please make sure that they can't hear it." I made my cold voice noticebly irritated.
""Fo-forgive us Ni-nikami-sama!"" They both bowed down even more.
[Wow, my voice really is strong huh... Now this is making me feel guilty too! Uuu.... What should do? I don't want them to fear me...] I thought in my head, a bit confused.
"Please don't bow down that low, have some pride as a noble. And some pride as a lady, I refused Kimuri-sama because I know that he is a playboy. I just wanted you to know that. and also, don't gossip. Its a disgraceful thing to do." I tried sounded mature, looking at them with pitiful eyes.
""E.. Eh..?"" They both looked up looking really confused.
[Look at their faces, they thought that I would get mad at them! I would never!] I smiled gently as I thought that.
"Please don't be scared of me, I would only hurt to those who oppose me. And if you are allies then I wouldn't hurt you." I smiled at them yet again, trying to make them trust me.
"We will keep that in mind Nikami-Sama..." They nodded and smiled.
"Yes Nikami-sama!" They both looked at me with admiration.
"Good." I said as I walked away from them.
"Nikami-sama is so elegant!" I heard them say behind me.
"Nikami-sama is so nice...." I heard them say behind me.
[Bingo! Thats the sweet spot! The sweet spot in the noble world is that they admire you! Not with fear, but with admiration!] I thought.
then I saw Raijin and she walked towards me and bowed down.
"Eh? Raijin-sama? Does that mean Raijin-sama is interested in Nikami-sama?"
"Ah! They are perfect for together!" The two girls from earlier said
"Tch.... Why is Raijin-sama inviting that whore? Raijin-sama is only for me!" A Light Green haired girl and emerald eyes said.
"No! Raijin-sama is for Nikami-sama!"
"How dare you call Nikami-sama a whore!" The girls from earlier said.
[There is a cat fight behind me... And... Thank god I was kind to them... If I didn't my reputation would suffer...] I thought in my head, a bit relieved.
"May I invite you to a dance Nikami-sama?" Raijin held her hand out.
"Of course Raijin-sama, it would be my pleasure..." I bowed down and took her hand
She led me when we were dancing, our hands held tightly together. Her other arm wrapped around my body.
[One of the times you can have a private conversation is while dancing.... Especially when it is important... After all you two are dancing together, how can some people hear? That is one of the noble hacks my Mother taught me!] I thought while we dance.
"Why are you doing the male part?" I asked her.
"Because I'm supposed to be a crossdresser princess" Raijin nervously laughed.
"Anyways, about the game.... Who is the Villaness? I mean yes the villaness is in the game but she isn't really too dangerous... She gets punished in the end but she doesn't really die... Is she still going to bully the Main character though? I don't want anyone to bully anyone... I just want everyone to be happy... " I looked sad, thinking about what the villaness will do.
"Well... The villaness is capture target.... So technically you can make the Villaness fall in love with the main character and not have them to fight." Raijin answered.
"Wait?! The villaness is a catpure target?!" I looked shocked.
"Yes, she is also a secret capture target.... I think she is the second hardest to get. Which will be bad...." She sighed.
"Well! What about I make friends with both of them and make them love each other!" I suggested.
"great idea princess! I suppose we could do that.... And oh, the dance is nearly ending... should talk about this later..." She smiles.
"Of course!" I after I did my last step Raijin bowed to me again.
"I had a wonderful time Nikami-sama... I hope you had too" She kissed my hand, and I blushed a bit.
"It is my pleasure to dance with you Raijin-sama, I indeed had a great time...." I smiled and bowed back.
She smiles and walked away, I was about to go after her but then someone called after me
"Hey, you." It was that Light Green haired girl earlier.
"What do you want." I looked behind me, looking utterly annoyed.
[Hm... She kinda looks familiar.... green haired.... with a prideful aura.... huhh....she really does seem familiar....]
"Huh. You really are a whore huh. Being kind to Raijin-sama but not be kind to anyone else." She looks disgusted.
"Well I'll have you know you were the one who called me a whore first. So why would I be kind to you?" I looked disappointed.
"...hmph! Whatever! Meet me at the garden!" She flips her long hair and goes to the garden.
[Oh god.... Oh well at least I have my magic to protect if the worse comes....] I sighed as I followed her to the garden.
"..." She was faced away from me, still very silent.
"So.... What do you want?" I asked her, still a bit irritated.
She looked back at Me, her Luscious Light Green hair flipped along with the cold wind of the night.
My emerald eyes sparkled seeing this sight. "How beautiful...." I thought, admiring what is in front of me.
"I just wanted you to know that Prince Raijin is mine!" She glared at me.
[If only she had a good personality....] I sighed whilw thinking that, then talked back.
"Before we fight, may I introduce myself?" I smiled at her.
"Very well. I'll allow that." She sighed a bit.
"My name is Nikami Shiromoru, its a pleasure to meet you. Now your turn." I bowed down, then looked up at her.
"Of course! I know!" She glared at me
"My name is Shukona Amatarini. Nice to meet you." She bowed down too.
[Wait... Isn't Shukona the name of the villaness?!!] I thought, now knowing why she looks familiar!
