「…The tip-offs and testimonies are evidence…」

「……What did you say?」

Have my ears gone crazy? Although I heard something impossible?

「I said this is the entirety of the evidence!」

I didn’t hear wrong!!! It’s not cute at all if you turn your face away and sulk!!

「…Are you sure?」

「Yeah, shut up!! The testimony is certainly from a servant, but as for the tip-off, it is from a person of status. That’s the best evidence of all, isn’t it!」

A ridiculous argument has been made. Do they think they can get away with it?

「Eh… And, if so, you have a record of the testimonials and the tip-offs as legal evidence, don’t you?」

「There is no such thing. I told you it was a tip-off from a person of status! There is no room for doubt!」

No, that is not true. Rather, status requires good use of lies, and you can’t maintain status by being a saint who doesn’t tell lies. This is aristocratic society for you. You pompous bimbo! How much kinder world have you lived in, you Count!?

「…Did you decide that I am a sinner based on this level of evidence?」

I couldn’t believe it too much and my voice shook.

I was not the only one stunned. The secretary, Raul, and the three knights who had been standing on either side and behind Brace looked as if they had seen something incredible.

「…Daryl, you said you had solid evidence to hunt down this vixen. This is nothing more than an accusation, not proof!!!」

「You were talking big about punishing the root of all evil that afflicts our beloved Priscilla-sama and our captain, but what is this!!!」

「It’s not just your responsibility anymore. You’re going to be held accountable by the 4th Unit. Do you understand that!!!」

There, there, you talk too much about me being a vixen and the root of all evil. I’m here in person, you know. Only the knight who led me to sit in the chair did not speak ill of me, but I won’t forgive him because he is jointly and severally responsible.

In the first place, they were uniformly forcing Brace of trying to punish me, but without confirming what kind of evidence they had, they just took his word for it and tried to punish me. Brace is certainly shallow, but that’s a shift of responsibility, not just self-inflicted.

「But it is true that this vixen is jealous of Her Highness! She doesn’t like the fact that the captain is with Her Highness! The captain is not happy about it, but she is still clinging miserably to her position as a fiancée!!!」

At last, you have no choice but to attack me with mere snide remarks.

「Daryl, stop.」

Ohhh, that’s unusual. Raul stopping him. How’s that for a windfall? Up until now, he had left me alone no matter what I’ve been told. But alas, I guess I’m too excited to hear it.

「Do you think you can stand next to a beautiful captain with your looks? Do you think you can compete with Priscilla-sama? You are a ridiculous person. You may be called a brilliant woman, but you’re nothing but an ugly person with a strong desire to show off your knowledge. You’re not even a lady! Your ugliness is showing on your face!!!」

Okay, okay. I’ve heard that line a lot before Raul and the secretary arrived, so if you don’t attack me from a slightly different direction, it won’t hurt me because I’m used to being told what to do. I was more uncomfortable with the spit that flew out of his mouth when he spoke out of turn in front of me. I was lying on my face to prevent the spit from hitting my face, but I felt uncomfortable as if it might fly into my hair this time.

「Look at that. You can’t talk back because it’s true. A sassy girl like you is out of character for a captain. You should’ve just backed off, but the captain was nice to you, so you took the high road. Know your place!!」

No, no, I’m not talking back, I’m just protecting myself from your spit.

「That’s enough.」

「I haven’t said enough yet!」

「Just shut your mouth.」

「Why! There is no need to defend this woman!! We should say it more clearly!」

「Shut up.」

「This woman needs to be reminded of that!」

「Silence, Daryl.」

I am sick and tired of arguing that seems to go on and on and on. May I interject for a moment?

「You don’t have to stop him, Sir Colden.」

「Marsha…」

Why do you look so surprised, Raul? Is it strange for me to stop you two from arguing?

「The captain is protecting you! What an adorable attitude is that!」

You are also unwavering in your attitude of humiliating me. And despite what you may think at first glance, Raul was never defending me.

「Go ahead and say what you want to say. It’s easy to see how everyone in the 4th Unit thinks of me. I have heard everyone but Sir Brace refer to me as a vixen, the root of all evil.」

I smiled at the knights on either side of me and quickly changed their complexion.

「But I wonder. Both the cause of being called so and the cause of my being falsely accused seem to be caused by things that are not true. Right, Sir Colden?」

「…!」

I wanted to stop Darryl’s rant so that I wouldn’t have to talk him out of it like this.

「Hah, what is not true? Isn’t this a fact!」

「No, that is not my facts.」

Yes, the problem is that it is a well-known fact that I am jealous of Her Highness.

「Stop it, Marsha. That has nothing to do with this case.」

「It’s relevant. Because it is being treated as my motive. If you overturn this motive, it will certainly confirm my false accusation. Isn’t that right?」

If you say that I committed the crime out of jealousy, then prove that I am not jealous. That way, I can kill two birds with one stone and avoid being called a vixen or the root of all evil.

「You don’t have to go that far, but I, as the captain, will admit that you were falsely accused.」

「Captain! It is still too early to decide that you are falsely accused. You will be punished. Why not let her confess!!」

「She is innocent. And how are you going to get her to confess? Are you going to torture her with this kind of evidence! It’s your fault for getting the 4th Unit involved in the first place on your own.」

「Guh…!」

Yes, yes. I’m the one who led him to do that, but it’s worse to fall for it so easily. But I think Raul’s supervisory responsibility is also important.

「Marsha. That’ll do, right?」

「No.」

「I’ll make a proper apology.」

「That’s natural. I’m just saying that I want to be clear so that it doesn’t happen again.」

「I’ll take responsibility and make sure the same thing doesn’t happen again.」

「I don’t trust you. Because Sir Colden is a liar.」

「…!」

You can’t argue with that, can you? It may be a little different than lying exactly. What Raul did was simply not correct anything, even if people around him were mistaken.

「Don’t call the Captain a liar!」

「Sir Brace, please shut your mouth.」

Your time is over. I am extremely sorry that you’re a fool that I don’t have to deal with. Thanks to you, I feel bad because of the extra resentment.

「Sir Colden says,『that’s enough』but it’s not a big deal. Just to let you know that your perception of your surroundings is wrong. Or what. Is it『that』important from Sir Colden’s point of view?」

「It doesn’t. I’m saying we don’t need any more.」

You are desperate. But the more desperate you are, the more suspicious you will be, you fool. I wonder if Raul doesn’t see how his men are looking at him quizzically. But I won’t stop them.

I’m here today to correct their misconceptions.
