Villager A Wants to Save the Villainess no Matter What! - Chapter 34.2
Chapter 34.2 – Side – Anastasia (2)
Considering the result, it was the right choice to invite Allen. I didn’t want to see the unusual situation in which that woman cuddles upon not only His Highness but also on the other four men. Besides, his escort in this expedition was wonderful with consideration for our safety.
In particular, I had never heard of the ruins being a goblin nest seven years ago. At that time, I was young and lived in the territory, so I didn’t know that there was such an incident. But, he was working in and out of the Adventurer’s Guild from that time. Entering and exiting the Adventurer’s Guild from the age of eight must have been a lot harder than I imagined.
Along the way, she suddenly said she wanted to go to a room, which is out of our planned route. And while clinging to His Highness, she fawns with the other men. She was repeating eccentricities like this that made me want to frown.
However, I wasn’t driven by strong emotions, probably because I was completely interested in this expedition because of Allen.
And above all, it was also wonderful after returning to the royal capital. The word genius truly suits Allen. He lacked basic knowledge, but after learning once, he absorbed everything like a sponge.
In a blink of an eye, he quickly acquired enough knowledge to withstand discussions with expert teachers, and to summarize the complex issues in an easy-to-understand and accurate manner. Furthermore, he, who shouldn’t have written a thesis, for some reason, was writing a thesis. It may be the result of understanding what to do after reading the past theories.
I got goosebumps for the first time seeing his talents. At the same time, to be able to discuss with him, I was happy.
His Highness is too childish when compared to him. To be honest, I felt that His Highness was immature, but I shouldn’t say it.
The thesis-style report that he took the initiative in compiling was evaluated highly as the achievement of His Highness. And yet, Allen was slandered, saying that he just rode on His Highness’s horse.
As expected, I couldn’t tolerate this kind of treatment.
I made a firm protest, and I think that at least the teachers understand the situation.

After that, I became a little worried about Allen. As usual, he can’t talk to anyone. Even if I try to do something about it, neither me, who is His Highness’s fiancée, nor my friends, who also have fiancées, can speak to him. Also, I can’t ask someone outside our faction.
Then, when I was going to lose heart, a good event called the cultural festival came.
It’s okay to invite him to this event. Thinking so, I tried to invite Allen again.
“Hey, Allen”
“Yes, what is it?”
“Have you decided what you will do at the cultural festival? If not, why don’t you help His Highness again?”
When I said so, He replied to me with an apologetic look.
“I’m sorry. Actually, I have already submitted an application for an Orc meat skewer stall.”
“… Is that so? I’m looking forward to it. Good luck.”
“Thank you”
That said, I was honestly disappointed. I wanted to see the work of that genius up close again.
“Ah, but if it’s absolutely necessary.”
What a blunder. It seems to appear on my face.
His words were out of concern after reading the expression of an aristocratic daughter. But if I think about it carefully, all of his credits will be taken by His Highness again, just like the time of the report. It may have been rude to invite him in the first place.
Thinking so, I declined the offer.
“No, it’s okay. It’s not a big deal. I’ll come to eat your skewers later in the festival.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Speaking of Orc, it is a speciality that can only be found in my friend Margaret’s hometown, Altmunt. As a result, it is a luxury item that is rarely available in this royal capital.
How on earth are you going to do it?
I became more and more interested in Allen.
(T/N:- she will not even realise how this interest will change to affection in this festival.)

After that, I helped with what His Highness said on the theme decided by him. The theme is “About the downtown culture and life, along with the kingdom’s support system”. In short, it exhibits how that woman’s past lifestyle was and what could the kingdom’s support system do if it gets introduced.
Worthless.
If that’s the case, I said that we should go to see the downtown. I also suggest that we should listen to the people in the class who are from there and ask for their cooperation. But my opinion was not heard.
In the end, I gave up and decided to summarize the history and contents of the support system that can be found by looking up in the library.
However, every time that woman got involved to provoke me.
To be honest, I have no idea what she is trying to do.
Yet, even if I make a legitimate complaint, His Highnesses take that woman’s side and scold me.
There is nothing I can do to help him now.
Why on earth did the Crown Prince of our Kingdom change into such a fool?
I keep preparing for the exhibition with a feeling of impatience, and after some time decide to return to the dormitory.
As I walked down the hallway, I saw that woman standing with her back against the wall. When I ignored her and tried to pass by, she said with a provocative smile.
“What a klutz. How do you feel about your fiancée getting robbed?”
The moment I heard those words, I lost my sense.
It was you who made His Highness a fool!
Thereupon, all my patience ran out at once, and when I noticed, I was waving my right hand.
“Fue~cushion”
But at that moment, I heard a sneezing sound that was too deliberate. Thanks to that, I returned to my senses and lowered my right hand.
The sneezing culprit was Allen!
“Oh, Oh? Anastasia-sama? And Amy-sama also? Ah, maybe you were talking? Excuse me!”
While pretending to be the bystander who didn’t see anything, he apologized and ran away intentionally.
This … Did I get helped?
Thanks to Allen, I regained my composure and warned the woman, knowing that it was useless.
“It seems useless to say anything to you, but remember. Your Highness is the future king of this country. You, who do not understand the role of the royal family and the aristocrat, are not suitable for him. Don’t approach His Highness. “
Then, I walked toward the dormitory. I felt that woman’s gaze pierce painfully on my back.
