CH 96

Cain stepped and moved to the front of the boy who he saw from the corner of his eyes while dancing, and extended his hand to invite him to dance.

“Senior Maddy, let’s dance”

“…You’re, Ca..”

“It’s Carin.”

When Cain forcefully took his hands and pulled him out to the square and started spinning round and round.

Unlike with Julian, he danced normally. 

“Have you finished your part-time job at the stall?”

“Thanks to you, it’s already sold out so I’m done. Ah, I’m sorry, Karin-sama? I don’t want to dance for too long.”

“Do you feel unpleasant?”

“No, it’s bad because you’re too beautiful. My girlfriend is right over there. I don’t want her to be jealous.”

Maddy glanced at a certain part of the onlookers. Cain confirmed the direction he looked and saw a girl with chestnut bobbed hair standing there. She was clasping her hand in front of her chest with an anxious look on her face. 

Watching her objectively, she dressed like a commoner who was wearing her Sunday’s best, and perhaps because she was tending the stall together, she was wearing an apron from the waist down like a salon apron. 

“I see. Then I’ll throw you her way so please invite her to dance. People in the orchestra are telling us to invite a lot of people to dance.”

“Wait a minute, what do you mean throw …”

“Furgh.”

Cain placed his hand on Maddy’s hips and pushed him towards his girlfriend’s direction with all his might.

“Ohwah.”

Maddy stumbled a step or two forward before stepping towards the wall of onlookers. 

Cain glanced at Julian and saw that he hadn’t invited anyone to dance yet. He clicked his tongue and moved there while taking light steps according to the rhythm. 

“Beautiful lady. Please dance with me. Since it’s a festival, wouldn’t it be fun for girls to dance together?”

She forcefully cut in front of Julian and stood there, and Cain said so as he took Shirley Leah’s hand.

After holding on to Julian, Maddy – only the boy’s hands, while he was amazed at the small size of Shirley Leah’s hands and the thinness of her wrists, he gently pulled her out of the wall of onlookers and placed his hand under her shoulder blade and forcibly turned her. 

“Isn’t it about time to forgive Julian-sama? Because I’m the one who has to suffer.”

“..Cain-sama?”

“Shh–! Please call me Carin.”

While spinning around, sometimes he raised their linked hands high above their head, and he turned Shirley Leah around like a top. 

“Umm, Carin-sama. That… That guise?”

“It’s the desperate measure of His Highness who couldn’t invite Shirley Leah-sama. It’s a real nuisance, so please do something about it.” Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com

“That’s… fufufu. I apologize for that.” 

“It is said that women and men have different mental ages of about 3 to 10 years. Julian-sama is the same as a child who raises his voice to get attention because he can’t speak out himself. “

It was totally the same with Arundilano when he was five years old. Saying, ‘I’m very popular with girls, you know.’ to get attention. He just didn’t have the courage to invite people himself. The reason why he would get love confessions just by waiting under the legendary tree was due to his track record of being considerate to the female students, being kind, and doing his best to raise his popularity during his school life.

“That doesn’t mean it’s okay to be childish.”

“That’s right. Shirley Leah-sama, for the punishment, it’s more effective to have him make a written apology than to make him say it out loud. 

“That’s good to know. I’ll ask him to write ‘I love you’ 100 times.”

Cain must have Shirley Leah properly control Julian. Even if it was half-obligatory for him to marry her as the consort, if he became a man who didn’t neglect Shirley Leah, he might properly refuse Diana, who was pressured to be married to him.

At any rate, Diana will become a lady with an attractive body with a curvy figure in the future.  She would be irresistible to the type of prince who chose women by their breast. 

Even if it ended up with her marrying him, he must be the prince that won’t neglect her and could sincerely make Diana happy.  

“I don’t feel like dancing with Julian-sama before he does the written apology since it would look like I had forgiven him.”

“Then, let’s annoy him for a while longer.”

Cain grinned with a naughty look on his face, and he sneakily whispered the plan into Shirley Leah’s ear. Shirley Leah who heard it was surprised with her eyes wide opened at first, but then she laughed aloud gracefully.

“Ufufufufu. Carin-sama. It’s a good idea! Then, let’s carry it out. Have a good flower festival!”

“Happy flower festival!”

After turning around one more time, Cain and Shirley Leah separated, and each invited female onlookers who were nearby to bring them out to the square and started dancing.

Shirley Leah continued to invite an aristocratic madam who she knew and her school female friends and others to dance. Since it was between women, there was no proper hold position so they just spun around as they held their hands together while facing each other. 

Cain invited a woman who looked like a commoner older woman and she said she cannot dance so they just danced like spinning around with their right arm crossed and while facing back and front. When the music changed at the end of the song, they changed their arms and she spun around in the opposite direction before finally giving a high five to invite another older woman. 

The madam invited by Shirley Leah invited her daughter to dance, and she invited her friend who was a female student, who in turn invited another female student to dance.

The older women that Cain invited also pulled out their children and husbands and started dancing.

After dragging out a few older women, he invited a few children and lined them up in a row to grab the shoulders of the kid in front of them to make it into the playtrain, and they were walking quickly matching to the music in front of the onlookers.

When passing in front of the onlookers, they forcefully high-fived the hands of the people clapping as they passed through, and after about the second lap, the onlookers waited with their hands out for high five before the kid train passed.

By the time the orchestra’s performance was at its peak, the crossroad that became the square was filled with people dancing.

In the midst of the orchestra’s performance, Cain cast a wind magic spell under his breath, and the flower petals that had once fallen to the ground whirled up into the sky and slowly descended into the square.

Everyone was talking in unison that it was very magical that regardless of aristocrats, commoners, adults, children, men, or women, everyone was dancing with a smile while the flower petals fluttered down.

The flower festival of that year continually became a hot topic up to the extent that the students who had returned to the territory seriously said that they would not go home for the flower festival next yea
