Who Made Me a Princess-Chapter 57
I then realized that he used magic on people again.
And weren't there a time when he banned people to make me invisible to other people's eyes and make them forget about finding me?
Tricking everybody. He's done most everything with his magic.
'It's me who used magic, but so what.'
Lucas accepted the fact like it was nothing. And he also said that there might be side effects if that person was weak. Eek, I get mad just thinking about it.
After that, that idiot annoyed me much. I don't remember how much I shouted at him not to use those dangerous magic on people. Lucas who would say 'It's my choice' had changed a lot seeing he said okay to my saying.
And from what I know, Lucas didn't use magic on people after that.
"Wizard is a very great person at a young age."
He acted young. He tricked everyone. Sniff.
Sob. He must be enjoying hearing from people that he is smart in that young age. While I get embarra.s.sed when people think I really am young and compliment me too much!
"Of course not more than our princess."
Like now.
I smiled at Lilly who was brushing my hair smiling like a mom through the mirror.
I-I should sleep now. Lilly always over compliment me!
"Lilly, I'm sleepy."
"Oh my. Look at the time. Let's go to sleep, princess."
I got ready to go to sleep forgetting about that Lucas who didn't make his appearance after me seeing Isekiel.

"Dad, dad."
I called Claude with my best voice. I smiled the prettiest today as a bonus.
"I'm really worried for the debutante coming soon."
But now's not the time to smile! I made a pitiful face and acted like a whining dog.
Then Claude who was stirring his tea looked up at me. Strangely he was drinking other tea then Lipeh.
But he was just stirring without sipping as if he didn't really liked it.
I spoke to him.
"What if I mess up from nervousness?"
"It's fine."
Claude replied like he didn't care.
"But it still is a worry as I am working hard on my dance."
"What is there to worry about? Wouldn't it be Felix's fault then?"
C-Claude is being Claude! Not losing the chance to attack Felix!
I hid my mind and acted as a character of 'A young girl who is worried at her debutante coming soon'.
"But everyone will see me as a weirdo."
"Very brave words to say before death."
Gasp. Are you saying that you are going to turn the words that makes fun of me into their last words?!
That was actually touching. I-I mean. Even though it is a bit cruel! But knowing how to calm his daughter down. He really improved. Wahh.
"No need to worry about it like that. If its uncomfortable, you could just get out after one dance."
Claude spoke as it was nothing. Seeing Claude like this, I refreshed my main plan for today's talk.
Now, lets end this teasing today!
"Actually I, want to enter the party holding dad's hand."
I muttered after acting hesitation. Then his hand stopped moving.
"Also dance my first dance with dad."
Wouldn't teasing turn into a real problem if I went too far. I want to keep this longer thinking what he had done to me these years but no choice. This is enough.
"I also want to hear the very first congratulation words for my 14th birthday from daddy."
Glimpsing at him, he had stopped stirring the tea in the cup. Into the important part!
"But dad...."
Fidgeting touching my cup, I made the most pitiful face.
"Probably won't want to."
Little Atti really wanna enter the party with daddy but thinks daddy won't wanna so she is right now gloomy. Atti gloomy.
Seeing this, Claude's hand flinched. Look at this, there are affects.
"That's why I asked Felix instead. Even so...."
Felix might be sad when he heard this but he's not here right now so it's fine. That's because Claude banned Felix enter our tea party after I said I wanted to dance and get escort from Felix.
"I really want to go with dad...."
Flinch.
"It's that debutante that happens only once in my life."
Flinch.
Claude's hand very faintly flinched when I spoke each sentences. his expression didn't change but I could see through him through those small movements.
But to make it more real, I spoke with a soft voice with a sad smile as if nothing happened.
"Hehe. I shouldn't be too greedy."
"...."
"Felix would help me well too even though its not as well as dad. I will try to be a good daughter to daddy."
Click.
Claude who set down the spoon, held up the tea cup again. He lowered his hand again after drinking the tea in one shot.
"Hmm. If you want it that bad."
And I smiled inside when Claude was about to speak as if he couldn't fight back.
Boom boom! A success! Flap flap! Now for Claude's accepting words!
"It's not hard to fulfil your wish."
"Really?"
I answered brightening my face. But I asked carefully as if it wasn't expected.
"But don't you dislike dancing in the party?"
"It's not a big deal to dance once and escort once."
Claude was acting as if nothing happened again. he was again stirring another cup of tea.
"Is it really fine? I heard dancing with their dad isn't very common. What if dad gets in a bad mood by other people judging?"
"Who says what to my doings? You don't nee to worry as there are none who speaks like that without expecting death."
Claude is Claude. He said as if my words were really not a problem. Yeah, Mr. you is the best.
I asked to confirm.
"Are you really coming to my debutante party with me?"
"No choice if you want it that bad."
he said as if he couldn't help it.
I've expected this kinda reaction but this is still too cute. Then I'll give ya my reaction!
"I don't like noisy places like that but I will specially-...."
"Daaaad!"
I speed walked to Claude. I then jumped on him, hugging him tight.
"Really? For real? Are you really escorting me? Along with dancing?"
"That-"
"Ah, I'm so, really happy! What to do, I'm so happy. I can't be dreaming, right?"
When I spoke like this, Claude couldn't continue with his talk. Of course it was me who didn't give him a chance to talk but this person right now is in a panic.
It was him who never showed emotions but I could see he is panicking and that he froze in place.
"No going back on your words. You promised me!"
I looked at him as if I really couldn't contain my happiness all in me. Then he spoke slowly after looking at me.
"Sure. I'll promise."
Yeah! Its done!
"Thank you, dad. Dad is the best. Hehe."
For my last attack, I kissed Claude's cheeks and finished my debutante first dance partner act.
And when I looked down again, there were literally no tea left and it became more hard to hold in my laughter.
***
I thought Felix would be sad at this but when I told him what happened, he brightened up saying 'Thank you princess!' which made me betrayed.
Hmm. But seems like Felix really was suffering much. But when I think back at your actions that affected me! Sob.
"Obelia's peace and blessing."
And I met duke Alfius when I was on the way out of Gannet palace.
"Duke Mr. Alfius, It's been a while."
is it you again? I thought I didn't see you much these days. But I smiled back. Since I've grown up, I stopped calling him Mr. White dog.
Felix greeted duke Alfius as well. But in total, just how much have we ran into each other?
"You are pretty today as well, princess Atanasia."
Hmm. He never forget your lip service.
"Haha. It was a great choice to come earlier. To see princess here is a blessing."
