" 'As soon as I saw Rondemio, I automatically remembered something. That day was... That day, a close friend had come back after seeing a male actor = who was called <Elf-man> Up close.
"What did he look like?"
"He's... He's HANDSOME!! Dang it he's good looking! Just darn yeah, handsome!"
"Is that all you got?"
"No way! There's nothing else to say really!!"
I teased my friend, asking if her Broca's area was injured, but now I fully understand them.
"DON'T SAY ANYTHING UNLESS YOU HAVE SEEN HIM IN PERSON"
I see now. I understand. must admit the crown prince... He was shockingly handsome. We... we are the same species right??? Everything is the same but what's wrong??'
Comparing Rondemio and I was like.. Comparing a true work of art that was completed over a week, with the artist worked ceaselessly day and night, to a chicken-scratch doodle drawn. With a foot while picking you nose. "
Everyone was laughing at the image. Including Arwin though he was turning green with jealously. (like Ibelin in chapter 131-134)
" "Ca..Cano."
'.....Um, your eyes are gonna pop out. He sure isn't just good-looking, he's also tall, has broad shoulders, and long legs... Although he's getting so much attention that it's quite scary. He sure has an amazingly thick face, as expected from a male lead.'
"Oh! Come to think of it, where's Ibelin."
The crown prince is shown looking around. 'The crown prince looks shocked all of a sudden.' Latte is shown with popcorn and 3-D glasses on. 'Anyone would know. Unless you were an idiot. The heroine is in Rondemio's sight right now...! Finally Ibelin enters. Huh?' Ibelin is shown to be reading a book.
"W-WHAT?! That person doesn't she even care about the banquet?"
"Yeah-"
The crown prince is shown being a bit ticked off. While everyone else is just staring at a confused looking Ibelin. 'Yeah this was it. It was precisely this! This kind of indifference was quite strange to him. He thought perhaps she did no see him.' "
"Quite the ego you got there."
Arwin spoke with a teasing mocked voice. The crown prince just looks down.
" It shows the crown prince walking up to Ibelin to just get ignored. 'Seeing Ibelin acting so indifferent towards him, Rondemio felt a strange emotion that he had never experienced until now.'
"So you're a masochist?"
Arwin said mischievously. Rondemio was blushing at this.
"He is not denying it"
Rosaline pitched in.
"Rosaline!!!!"
Rondemio spoke with the most offended tone you could probably ever hear.
"Still not denying it~"
"ARWIN!!"
" 'It's turning out exactly as it is in the novel! And the reaction of the crown prince right after this...!'
"ha!"
'Rondemio smiles as if it's funny and sweeps his hair up with his hand. Oh my gosh! I just got goosebumps! This place really was inside the novel. I'm this close to becoming a fake clairvoyant! hehehehhehehe! He's really taking over everything with his good looks. He still looks great even when doing even when doing something so stupid! It's so cringy~ How can this look cool to other people?'
A bunch of girls is shown flocking over the crown prince.
"Oh my goodness~"
"He's so beautifull.'
"I want to be the air of the crown prince's sigh~"
"He's an incredible guy~"
'By the way what happened next?'
"HIS MAGESTY THE EMPEROR AND HER HIGNESS THE QUEEN WILL NOW ENTER!"
"The emperor and the queen! The very people who passed on the genes to Rondemio!"
"HUH...?"
The emperor is shown with the words "Cubby" on the screen. 'Hello there.. isn't this setup a mistake? They look just like a next-door middle-ages man and a pretty cute woman..'
Latte was shown rubbing her eyes. "
"Does this qualify as treason?"
Ibelin asks. Leaving others in the room concerned.
"She is insulting the queen and emperor so, I guess... but this is all in her head."
Rosaline responds. Which Ibelin decides to respond with.
"So is it or is it not?"
" "Thank you all for gathering here to congratulate the seventeenth birthday of our Rosaline!!"
"Being able to grasp the attention of the whole assembly. Hmm, that's quite nice."
"We would like for you to enjoy your time at the banquet."
"Wait! What about Rondemio?"
The screen shows a dotted outline of where the crown prince used to be.
"Hah.. what the. Wait her left already?"
The question is drowned out by woos of the other girls.
"Ahh his highness the crown prince..... I'm not dreaming am I?"
"Oh my, how can someone look like that?"
"I think I'm in love!"
"I want to meet him again.."
As Rondemio disappeared in the hall, one by one they started becoming lovesick. the banquet hall instantly became a gathering for patients.
"I NEED popcorn for this."
The screen shows Cano fanning herself. 'This one has completely gone crazy... What a shame my friend's a patient too..' "
Cano is officially dead by embarassment. How can they show something so unflattering as this! Especially over the crown prince!
"Don't worry I am totally over you now!"
" "Is your heart beating fast?"
"yeah"
"Do you grow faint when you think of him?"
"A little..."
"Good luck.."
'Cano, I will stop you if I sense you turning into a villain but before that...! Get over your hopeless (and a bit stupid) crush quickly! -But I could not tell her that. That the crown prince you fell in love with would soon become someone else's....'
Latte is shown passing her a drink.
"Now."
'Cheers to my friend's future self!'
"Helelwllala!"
'Now, now hold still. That's right you might spill.."
'There would be no way... ...The crown prince who already left would appear again for the extras like us.'
"To be continued"
"Was I really that boy crazy?"
Cano spoke. 'I don't remember being THAT lovesick'
"Apparently you were, but you had no shot with him because mister masochist only likes girls who don't like him."
Arwin said yet again matter-of-factly. Everyone nodded along except for the crown prince who for once in his life was flustered by all eyes on him.
