The Main Heroine Likes the Extra

4 – Dissolution of Marriage②

Baron Edwin’s Territory is located on the outskirts of the kingdom, mainly for simple agriculture.

Even so, it’s not to the extent that it has special specialties or boasts a very large farmland, but it’s a common manor that’s large enough to live on.

Compensation for unilaterally breaking an engagement between nobles, even an engagement that lasted for over ten years.

Even as her party, Liliana, affirmed that she would take full responsibility, the amount is by no means small.

…Honestly, it doesn’t make any sense that the Baron Edwin family would be able to pay reparations.

I wondered if I would have to save money for at least ten years before I could collect the compensation.

In the original story, the other party’s assault and verbal abuse against Liliana, not Liliana, was the reason for the breakup, so Countess Wentos took full responsibility for her, but this time it’s Liliana’s unilateral breakup.

As the development was different from the original, a great crisis was coming to the Baron Edwin family.

A few days later, Baron Edwin.

Liliana’s father and head of Baron Edwin family, Walter Edwin, received a document like thunder from the sky.

“Is this…Is this really true?!”

Walter Edwin held up the document in his hand with a trembling hand.

The envelope containing the document was stamped with the coat of arms of Count Wentos, who had a betrothal relationship with Baron Edwin.

“I sent a messenger to Lady Liliana to confirm the facts. However, judging from the attitude of Count Wentos, it is probably true.”

“You stupid daughter! What are you doing without consulting her father!!”

Walter Edwin clutched his head.

If what is written in this document is true, it is 100% the responsibility of Baron Edwin.

I can’t believe my daughter, Griliana, fell in love with another man and unilaterally broke off her engagement!

As an aristocrat with a fiancé, this is an embarrassing act.

Even, she brought up the story of breaking up the engagement right away without consulting her?

Even if this b*tch goes crazy, she’s not pretty crazy.

I wonder if the daughter I gave birth to in my old age was too mean because she even had a talent for magic.

Walter Edwin felt his head start to ache.

“Honey! Is that really true?!”

The baroness, Adriana Edwin, opened the door to the lord’s chamber and ran in.

Her baroness’s face was pale.

“Is it true that Liliana did something stupid like that!”

“I’m checking it, but the count’s family won’t send a document like this without checking the facts, so I think it’s probably true.”

“Ah…”

As the baroness staggered about to fall, one of her maids came running and helped her.

Said Walter Edwin, looking into his wife’s face.

“I should take responsibility now that things have turned out this way, but how can I pay such a large amount of compensation…”

“Liliana…What the hell were you thinking…”

Walter Edwin had no choice but to wrap his aching head.

A few days passed.

It became ‘normal’ for Liliana to be with Alan, and at some point I stopped caring about her.

Even though we’ve been together for more than ten years, can we sort things out so quickly?

To be honest, it was hard to say that there was no problem at all.

Deceiving myself just to be like that, to seem okay.

I had to look close to that.

And at the same time, her presence was great.

Riel Ignis.

The main heroine of this world, and my friend.

Every time she was with me, it felt like the pain in her heart was being cut away.

Today, I went to a small shop on the outskirts of the capital with her.

“There are few people, and the tea is very delicious!”

Riel said as she lifted up the milk tea she ordered.

Certainly, it was a decent shop with a quiet atmosphere.

The taste of the tea was also quite good.

“I found this store well”

“I found it by accident while running around at the beginning of the semester!”

…I didn’t bother to ask who he was running from.

Riel was still ignoring Alan and running away from him.

Alan also kept approaching Riel, but perhaps because of her previous argument with me, he couldn’t actively step out from where her eyes were.

“Ehh, how long do I have to stay in front of that guy… I’ll give her another seat next time…”

“Ha ha…”

She has moved three times while attending the academy.

Her lot is to decide her place, but to her real horror, Riel’s place has always been with Alan.

Whether it’s the front seat, the back seat, or the side seat.

I wondered if something like that would happen this time, but Riel said confidently that it wouldn’t happen this time.

“I’ve prepared a countermeasure!”

Lana, what are you saying?

“By the way, Miss Liliana didn’t go to school today?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Liliana didn’t go to school today.

From the words of the homeroom teacher, it seems like there is something important going on.

“Perhaps he was summoned to the baron family.”

“Is it related to the breakup?”

“Yes, the fact-finding investigation of the count’s family has been completed, and they must have claimed compensation from the baron’s family.”

After sending the letter to the Count’s family, the situation after that went by swiftly.

The count who received my letter… That is, my father, immediately sent someone to the academy and confirmed the facts with me and Liliana.

Liliana honestly admitted everything, and that was it.

In the end, her countess, seeing her attitude and her remarks to Liliana, told her administrator that she was responsible for her, and her administrator also acknowledged and approved her breakup.

As long as Liliana has continued to take that attitude, it is now too much for a male writer to overturn her breakup.

…I secretly checked the amount of compensation set by the administrator who accompanied me, but it was not an amount that Baron Edwin could pay right away.

I was guessing that perhaps her male writer had called her to interrogate her Liliana in this regard.

For the time being, Baron Edwin will be in trouble.

Over the course of her engagement to Liliana, she has built up considerable friendships with male writers, so her feelings of pity were understandable.

But now that things have turned out this way, there is nothing we can do about it.

It is natural that my personal feelings are excluded from the promise between nobles.

Liliana Edwin had hurriedly descended to the barony after receiving a letter from her husband the day before.

A secluded manor far from the capital.

A small baronial estate of ordinary scale, enough to earn a living by harvesting that year.

It was her hometown that she had returned to after only a few months, but it felt strange to Liliana.

“Lady Liliana!”

As soon as I left the station, an old man approached calling for Liliana.

It was Gordon, the butler who had served Baron Edwin since he was young.

“The Baron wants to see her lady right away.”

What is to come has come.

Liliana already guessed why she had been called.

She was prepared to a certain extent, but her heart was very heavy because she was actually shutting up.

“Let’s go.”

Slap!

Walter Edwin’s palm slapped Liliana in the face.

She was hit so hard that Liliana staggered behind her and fell straight.

Tears welled up in Liliana’s eyes.

“You… Do you know what you did!?”

The face of Liliana’s sweet father, who had never beaten her, was contorted like a demon.

Her mother, Adriana, looked at herself with her sad face.

“Do you know how important the betrothal relationship between nobles is!!”

“…”

Liliana was speechless.

She knew. How important this engagement was, and what would happen if it was unilaterally broken.

But then she thought that this must be right.

She met Alan in the capital and felt a sense of incongruity in her heart while spending time with him.

She and the things she went through while meeting him several times, and one piece of advice she heard from him.

‘Lily thinks she shouldn’t dress herself up like that, she just needs to be honest with herself’

She felt that her heart was at ease after hearing his words.

As she did what she wanted to do and liked what she liked, she felt something in her heart unravel. She

As she was with him, as she leaned on him and talked to him, she was gradually drawn to him.

She was released from her last chains so she kept binding herself and she was really free, she wanted to be by his side honestly.

‘I’m really sorry, but I want you to break the engagement with me.’

If she asked if the days with Kyo Wentos were painful, it wasn’t.

However, as she longed to be with Alan, she felt the warm cloth of Kyo Wen Toss wrapped around her as nothing but a cold chain.

So, she broke the chain.

Unilaterally, thoroughly.

And the price.

She was not only coming at herself, but also at her own family.

Baron Edwin, whose excitement had subsided, took a moment to catch his breath before continuing.

“If things have gotten this far, it will be impossible to break off the engagement.”

“…Yes”

Some things have already grown, but Liliana also had no intention of breaking up the engagement in the first place.

“Compensation must absolutely follow the amount set by the kingdom. I’ll have to find some money…”

Saying that, Baron Edwin looked 20 years old.

“And Liliana, you will quit the academy today.”

“Yes!?”

Liliana was in shock.

She quit the academy, if nothing else, Liliana couldn’t agree that she should quit the academy.

First of all, if she quits the academy, it will be impossible for her to be with Alan.

“What amazes you? Did you really intend to attend the academy?”

“That… That’s… But you’ve already paid all your school fees!”

Baron Edwin glared at Liliana with an expression of bewilderment.

At that time, someone entered the room.

Like Liliana, he was a pretty young man with blue hair.

“You’re talking stupid, Liliana.”

“Oh…My brother…”

It was Liliana’s brother and the next male heir to the baronet, Valencia Edwin.

“Did you forget that your school fees were paid by Count Wentos?”

The eyes of the brother I met after a long time looking at Liliana were very cold.

“Of course, your school fees were paid by the count’s family regardless of your engagement, and the count’s family didn’t even ask for your tuition back.”

“That…Then…”

Valencia narrowed her eyes and glared at Liliana.

“If you have a conscience, can you continue attending the academy with the tuition paid by Count Wentos?”

“……”

Liliana had nothing to say.

Baron Edwin sighed and said.

“If you want to keep going like that, it doesn’t matter if you’re Count Wentos or Kyou-kun yourself, so please ask for forgiveness and get permission.”

“……”

“No matter how much the count family didn’t ask for the refund of tuition, at least you don’t have to apologize from the bottom of your heart.”

“…Yes, I understand, Father.”

Liliana’s heart felt even heavier.
