1 Am I that bad looking?

Note: Everything in " " is what people are speaking and everything else is what the MC is thinking inside his mind even if it looks like he is talking, it's just his inner monologue.

"Ki... Kyahhhhhh ----!"

The young lady, as soon as she saw my face, she suddenly screamed and fell over.

It was a perfect misunderstanding.

What's going on ----?

"Oh, young lady ------!"

It's obvious, but the butlers and maids are already rushing in, and it's a commotion.

I .... also ... or is it okay? You were looking at my face, so I was the cause. Is it okay for me to help you?

But that is the duty of a gentleman. If the prince of the country had left the lady who had fallen down to the ground unattended, it would be a matter of royal mockery.

"Miss Serea? What's wrong with you, Miss Serea?"

I run over to her and kneel down beside her.

The young lady is white eyed and drooling from her mouth, probably because she hit the back of her head on the ground, even if it was on the grass.

Ouch!

The young lady with waist length black, lustrously beautiful hair, and a face that I would say is well proportioned and pretty, but now she's in a mess.

The maid quickly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief to hide her awful face and frowned.

"Master Shin ... I'm sorry, Your Highness. The young lady seems to be a little unwell today, and, well, the tea party will be rescheduled for a later date ...."

The butlers were sweating profusely, trying to get this fiasco under control.

The engagement plan between me, the First Prince, the successor to the Midland royal family, and Miss Serea, the daughter of Duke Colette's family, is in discussion right now, and we decided to take advantage of this opportunity when the day for my elder sister to marry into the neighboring country is nearing to decide on our engagement, and today was our first meeting.

I was invited to a tea ceremony under the guise of a courtesy visit with only one companion as a guest.

The young lady was being held by the butler and carried to the mansion.

The maids followed her, fussing over it.

Then, her father, Duke Hurst Collette, who is also sweating profusely and apologizing to me, desperately bows his head to me.

"I am sorry. I'm truly sorry for my rudeness and I would like to apologize for my daughter...."

"Look up, please. Your daughter is only ten years old. There will be times when you are not in good shape. I will visit you again on a different day. You can make it in the form of a sympathy visit for your sick daughter. But I don't care."

Royals sometimes needed a reason to visit someone so it was alright if Duke Hurst could make it seem I was visiting next time to ask about his daughter's health.

Just because I'm a prince doesn't mean I should let a grown man bow down to me especially when I'm 10 years old. In fact, please don't do that. I can't help but feel annoyed.

"My daughter.... my daughter..... Serea doesn't have any pre-existing conditions or weaknesses or anything like that. This has never happened to her before. Normally she's fine, well, I mean, it's fine to be fine, but no.... this is the first time I've ever seen anything like this anyway."

"I understand. I'll take my leave for now. Now please take care of the young lady and keep her close to your side. Please tell the young lady to take care of herself and to look forward to seeing each other again. I shall now leave you."

I said so as well, and excused myself from the place. In a rush, one of the duke's maids follows me and shows me around.

I call out to Shreegan, the Kingsguard Knight who was waiting outside in the garden.

''Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm going home.''

Shreegan is a tough, gruff and scary-looking guy, but he has been my personal bodyguard since this year because I have to go out a lot on official business.

He has a scary face, but when you interact with him, he's an interesting guy, and we're always teasing each other. If there was a demon, he looks like this, but when it's just the two of us, I can forget that I'm a prince and just relax with him.

''What's the matter, Master Shin? You'll be home early at this rate."

"Hey Shreegan, do I look that bad?"

"What? What are you talking about? If I had a face like Master Shin's, I'd be able to gather all the beautiful women in the country and create a harem and be very popular with them right now. I have no doubt that when it comes to faces, Master Shin will become the country's number one womanizer, able to lead this country for sure!"
