Chapter 91
* * *
Twirl.
Crunch.
Crunch.
Crunch.
Twirl.
Crunch.
Crunch.
Crunch.
“Yoo reelee cahnt dahnce for shiht…(You really can’t dance for shit…).”
Leon said through gritted teeth.
I was a bit flustered.
I realized it anew.
“So Lisian really was good at dancing.”
“Why are you bringing up my brother here?”
“No, when I turned once with Lisian earlier, I only stepped on him once?”
“…”
“But now when I turn once with you, you get stepped on three times.”
“Normally a lady who dances well shouldn’t step on her partner’s feet even once…”
Crunch.
“…”
A moment of silence passed, and only the orchestra’s lively melody swirled between us.
I spoke first.
“It’s not on purpose.”
“…”
“It’s really not on purpose…”
I cleared my throat awkwardly, but even I thought it seemed too intentional.
It really wasn’t on purpose, it was a mistake.
But the timing was way too artistic.
‘Did my skill stat… manifest not as dancing ability but as this foot-stepping timing?’
“D-does it hurt a lot?”
“I think my foot is broken.”
“What? Really?”
I panicked and looked down.
Since he was a patient whose shoulder was actually broken by a bow, it seemed like his foot could really be broken too.
But soon my upper body was lifted by a strong force.
I was startled.
“Hey, it’s a joke. I’m not weak enough to be broken by your feet, you know?”
His usual sarcastic tone felt reassuring now.
‘I guess it’s really not broken.’
“I was worried you wouldn’t be able to walk.”
“What?”
Leon let out an incredulous laugh, but true to the game with an incredibly large volume, did have such endings…
Instead of words I couldn’t bring myself to say, I just brushed it off with a vague smile.
Wondering what he was thinking, Leon, who was dodging my shoe with even more dazzling skill than before, casually said.
“Hey. But you really can’t dance.”
“I know that too, okay?”
“I’ll be your dance practice partner.”
“No, I don’t need it.”
“What? Why?”
I blinked and said.
“Lisian said he’d do it.”
“Ah, seriously! Are you planning to destroy my brother’s feet too?!”
“What did you say?!”
The moment I glared at him, we spun in a turn.
As we both made mistakes simultaneously, failing to release our strength in time.
Crunch.
“…!”
Leon Frazier had just closed his mouth, but I heard his inner scream.
Surely if this weren’t the Grand Banquet Hall full of people, he would have screamed loudly.
Still, Leon Frazier’s complexion showed no change.
Rather, I turned pale and asked.
“Hey.”
“…”
“Hey.”
“…”
“Leon, hey, brother?”
“…What.”
“Y-your shoulder blade came out, didn’t it…?”
My voice trembled slightly as it came out. Leon didn’t answer.
“Leon.”
“…”
“Leon!”
“…It seems a bit out.”
“No!”
“I won’t die from this much…”
“We can’t stop dancing!”
“…Whether this is a demon or a human.”
A slight commotion.
Fortunately, the dance song was already near its end, and in less than 10 seconds, the orchestra’s melody came to an end.
Clap clap clap!
The resounding applause of the nobles.
Leon Frazier still perfectly bowed to me in the midst of it all.
I too could bow flawlessly.
And…
“Lehts go to the dohkter. Lean on meh.(Let’s go to the doctor. Lean on me.)”
At my words whispered through gritted teeth, Leon obediently leaned on me.
It seemed his words about his shoulder being slightly out weren’t a lie. We acted like affectionate siblings as much as possible and hurriedly left the hall.
“Personal physician! Personal physician! Where are you!”
As soon as we left, Leon’s personal physician came running at my shout.
“Oh my, young master?! W-why is your shoulder like this?!”
“Grans! Carry him, carry him!”
“Yes!”
My assistant butler hurriedly carried Leon on his back and ran to the room, causing a small commotion.
But anyway, the birthday banquet ended perfectly.
That night.
Ding.
Before my eyes, enchantingly beautiful text unfolded.
Sub Quest Content: Master of the Banquet
You are trash!
You have no money, bad luck, and are hated by everyone!
(Except for one person) No one loves you!
Sub Goal: Dance with ‘Lisian Frazier’ and ‘Leon Frazier’ at the ‘banquet’
[System] Successfully danced with Lisian Frazier!
[System] Successfully danced with Leon Frazier!
“Wow…”
It felt like stars were falling before my eyes.
[System] You have completed Sub Quest !
[System] Success reward will be given.
My heart was pounding wildly.
Indeed, what could that success reward filled with question marks be?
1,000 coins?
Or boldly 100,000?
[System] Success reward of 2,000 coins will be given!
“Wow!”
I screamed with joy.
Actually, I thought even 1,000 would be more than enough, so I didn’t expect to receive 2,000, which was double that amount.
But that wasn’t the end.
The system window flashed brilliantly once again.
And then.
[System] Benefit ‘Master of Life’ will be given!
What?
“What master…?”
[System] ‘Master of Life’ Benefit: Can revive one dead male protagonist once (one-time use)
“…Huh?”

The next day.
I stared at the mirror and blinked blankly.
‘Surely a situation where someone actually dies won’t come, right?’
It can’t be Lisian or Leon.
Of course, the other Male Leads can’t die either.
Obviously for my A grade.
‘Do I now have to worry about the Male Leads’ lives too?’
Honestly, it was ridiculous.
Of course, even though events where Male Leads die exist in , it was definitely not a game where they died frequently.
It wasn’t that kind of depressing game to begin with.
was just a bright and lovely, romantic comedy dating simulation reverse harem game!
I did jokingly tell them not to die, but receiving this kind of benefit made me feel a bit uneasy.
‘For now… Well.’
A Male Lead I haven’t even met won’t die.
‘Ferdinand is… set to not die easily even because of Divine Power Excess.’
He’s set to somehow return alive from the battlefield too.
The twins should be fine too.
Probably.
If they were going to kill the twins, it should have happened already, I think.
‘Then…’
There was one Male Lead I still haven’t met.
Precisely Benjamin Fluas.
The youngest prince of the Allied Kingdom’s Sorsen Kingdom, and son of a lowly concubine.
‘The important thing is that he pretends to have no ambition, but actually desires the throne more than anyone.’
Setting aside various details, Benjamin was the character who tried to use Coriko but ended up falling in love instead.
‘It’ll take time to meet him though.’
He won’t just drop dead as soon as we meet, right?
I worried about each Male Lead one by one, then shook my head.
‘If they die, they die. Stay alive, everyone.’
Because I don’t want to die.
“Miss. It’s all done.”
“Thank you, Adel.”
Meanwhile, my hair styling was finished. After checking my appearance in the mirror, I went outside.
* * *
“Your Grace. Miss Sophia has arrived.”
“Let her in.”
Ruk Kelfosher immediately opened the door.
Sophia, prettily dressed in a new dress, entered with a tense face.
Assis Grand Duke Frazier, who had been the protagonist of the birthday banquet just yesterday, was busy working from the very next day.
Even now, Assis Grand Duke’s desk was piled high with documents to process.
‘He could just give the engagement gift through his advisor!’
Being so busy, yet making people scared for no reason!
Sophia barely managed to calm her trembling heart and bowed in greeting.
“Grandfather. Did you rest peacefully last night?”
Only then did Assis Grand Duke look up from his documents.
Of course, Sophia, whose eyes met his, felt even more miserable.
‘How on earth did Tulia manage to get domestic authority from Grandfather?’
Just looking at those eyes is so scary!
She wanted to avoid his gaze immediately, but hearing that Tulia received Assis Grand Duke’s favor, she absolutely couldn’t do that.
Just when she was desperately trying to squeeze out a smile somehow.
“Yes, Sophia. Congratulations on your engagement.”
“Hah…! Thank you…!”
Sophia unconsciously gasped and expressed her gratitude.
Realizing that her behavior and etiquette were a complete mess, Sophia’s face turned red without her knowing.
However, the Assis Grand Duke didn’t seem inclined to blame her.
He simply asked with his usual expressionless face.
“As a congratulatory gesture and according to Frazier tradition, I said I would give you an engagement gift.”
‘Finally…!’
The Assis Grand Duke shuffled through documents and asked in an indifferent voice.
“If there’s something you want, feel free to speak without reservation.”
Gulp.
Sophia swallowed her dry saliva.
It starts now.
“I, I…”

Shushu
Aw damn, who’s gonna die…
Also, I thought Tulia’s legs were still in bad shape or am I tripping?
