“Yuki-sama’s acquaintance…is he a wanderer from another world…?”

I think that the number of people Yuki knows in this world is limited.

I don’t think there are that many people she got acquainted with since Yuki came to this world.

Moreover, she should have extremely few acquaintances from other countries.

It is unlikely that His Highness Naaotto, the second prince, would be in that small possibility.

If that’s the case, then it would be normal to think of him as a human from the world where Yuki was from.

“Yes. That’s right. My best friend’s former husband.”

Yuki said that while looking as if she was spitting it out.

“Well, but why did you look so bad?”

Why did she escape from that place just because he was her best friend’s former husband?

At first glance, I thought he was a good young man, although he had a noble aura.

I don’t understand why Yuki had such a sour expression.

“Only his outside appearance looks good. I was also deceived.”

Yuki said so and clasped her hand tightly.

It seemed that she was feeling unbearably frustrated.

“He hurt my best friend and drove her to death…”

The moment Yuki said that His Highness Naaotto’s cold expression and cruel insults were recalled in my head like a flashback.

It was extremely hard to endure hearing those words.

Even when I closed my eyes tightly and closed my ears with both hands, his expression and words didn’t disappear, it was like a curse.

His words echoed inside my head and wouldn’t disappear.

“…Ah…no…no more…stop!!”

I felt pain all over my body.

The huge amount of words that caused me to feel emotional pain continued to torment me.

What is…this?

Even though I don’t remember ever interacting directly with His Highness Naaotto.

For some reason, the scene was so vivid that it looked as if it had just happened yesterday.

I couldn’t endure this any longer and ended up screaming some words.

“Rachel!!? What happened!!!”

“No!! No… Don’t come!!!! I…I was wrong. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Please forgive me…”

“Rachel!! Get a hold of yourself!!”

Yuki desperately hugged me, even though she was bewildered as to why I looked as if I had gone mad, screaming that I’m sorry towards the scene repeating inside my head.

Her body temperature felt very warm.

Yuki gently hugged my body that was trembling in fear.

“Ah…no…”

Little by little, His Highness Naaotto’s appearance and voice faded from my head.

Still, the shock wouldn’t subside.

“Rachel! Rachel!!”

Yuki put strength into her arms that hugged me tightly.

“…Yuki ….Help me … Naaotto did… I can’t…endure this any longer…”

Turn your hand so that you can cling to Yuki’s back, who is hugging you.

I put my hands around Yuki’s back as she hugged me so that I can hold on to her.

“…Ray!?”

My head is in a daze.

Just like that, I had no strength in my body and I couldn’t even support myself.

I was relieved to hear a nostalgic name from Yuki and softly closed my eyes.
