Ch. 39: Purinsuchāmingu no bāsudēbasshu part 3

As the night sets in, the scene shifts at the palace, where Charming is celebrating his birthday, and it was a lavish one as many of the guests appeared to be connected to the prince and the prime minister, such as celebrities, politicians and the like, and you can see that the Prime Minister has used his connections to invite quite a lot of guests who are among the financially elite, and they brought gifts for the prince, which are quite expensive.

There the guests greeted Charming and wished him a happy birthday, shaking his hand and gave him the gifts, which the prince accepted and thanked them for their GENEROSITY.

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Thank you for coming…and thank you for the gifts…"

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Happy birthday, prince Charming…"

"Thank you for coming…and thank you for the gifts…"

However, the scene showed that Sonia is there and is visibly annoyed, as she had to be at attendance due to her being the princess of Novoselic, and she confided to her royal PR that she rather not attend this party, but the PR urged her to put up with this just for tonight.

"I'm not pleased."

"Princess Sonia…"

"I do not want to be here…"

"Please put up with it just for tonight."

"I rather spend the night talking with Naegi-kun…"

"Do not worry. Once the king arrives, then you can take your leave."

"…fine…"

"Good."

The royal PR said that at least she can keep an eye on the chancellor and the prime minister, and that way she'll know if those two men would try to harass Naegi again, and the princess sighed as she said that she rather be with Naegi than being in this birthday party, but the PR said that it is needed as per the king's urging.

"Really, I feel like a gatecrasher here…"

"Your father requested your presence here as courtesy. Try to put up with it for tonight."

"…"

"Do not worry. Everything will be okay."

"I hope so."

"Be strong, princess."

"Fine."

"…"

Soon more VIPs came as they too are invited, and as the party is ongoing, Naegi came as he happened to find a wallet which belonged to the Swiss ambassador, and there the SHSL Luckster approached him and gave back the wallet, and the ambassador was amazed and grateful for the act, thanking the boy for the selfless deed, which Naegi said it was nothing.

The ambassador then glanced at the teen boy and recognized Naegi and told him that he has heard a lot about him and then asked what's it like being a student at Hope's Peak Academy, saying that his daughter wanted to go to Japan and enroll there, but Naegi told the Swiss ambassador that she should have a talent where she excels at so that the scouts would determine if she is qualified or not.

"Really, boy?"

"Yeah."

"That's quite hard."

"It all depends on what talents your daughter has. And only the scouts would determine if she is qualified to enroll or not…"

"I see."

"How old is she?"

"About 12 years old."

"Then wait for about three more years, sir."

Sonia saw this and wondered why Naegi is here, worried that the chancellor might pick on him again and decided to go there and ask him to stay out of sight, but the chancellor got there first and confronted the boy, accusing him of gatecrashing Charming's birthday and wanted to stand out so he would be noticed by the guests.

Naegi honestly deny this but the chancellor would not relent and began hurling baseless accusations and threatening to have the boy arrested, but the Swiss ambassador came to the Luckster's aid and quell off the accusation and proved to the chancellor that Naegi came here to return the wallet. The chancellor then said that Naegi intended for this to happen but the ambassador sternly told the chancellor not to use Naegi as a scapegoat, surprising the chancellor.

"Listen here, SIR."

"Huh?"

"Do not try to make me look like a fool."

"But…but…"

"This boy returned my wallet, and I owe him one, so stop harassing him."

"He did that on purpose…that brat is…"

"That boy is not a brat."

"But…but…"

The Prime Minister came and overheard the conversation, and interjects himself, where he insinuated that Naegi might have secretly pickpocketed the ambassador in secret and then staged this scenario so as to give Naegi an excuse to come here and have an alibi in coming to Charming's party unannounced, and there the Prime Minister said that this requires a serious investigation.

Naegi face-palms as he knew that the Prime Minister is using this as an excuse to harass him again and tells them that he is leaving them alone, but the chancellor blocked the boy's path and threatened to have the boy arrested for stealing and gatecrashing the event, much to Naegi's increasing frustration as he is being picked on again.

This resulted in an argument between the two which attracted the attention of Sonia and the royal PR, and they became concerned and worried that the chancellor would use an excuse to have basis in having Naegi unjustly arrested.

"Princess Sonia."

"Damn. They're at it again…"

"You better go and help that boy out."

"Yes, I will."

"I try to summon the king. I'm sure that the Prime Minister and the chancellor would not listen to you…"

"Yes, please do."

"Okay, I'm on my way."

"…"

Fortunately the Swiss ambassador came to the Luckster's defense and told the two men to cease their unjust accusations as he made it clear that he will not lobby a complaint and that Naegi indeed brought back the wallet and nothing is missing. He also stated that if Kong Nevermind were to see this, the chancellor will no doubt be fired on the spot.

The chancellor is being like a sore loser and began stomping like a spoiled brat and reiterated that Naegi is a troublemaker and must be detained, only to see that the Luckster taking his leave as the boy wanted no part in engaging a pointless argument with the chancellor.

By then a traveling fortune teller group arrived and are taking their place, which Naegi is surprised to see Hagakure among them, and the SHSL fortune teller said that his group got permission to do fortune telling sessions here as long as there are no trouble.

Hagakure!""

"Ah! Naegi-chi!"

"What brings you here?"

"Part of the Fortune Tellers' club. We got permission and we're allowed to do fortune reading."

"Really…?"

"Yup. Now I can earn some money."

"Just be careful."

"I will."

As the two Class 78 classmates chatted, the chancellor is irritated at Naegi's presence but the rival royal PR tells him to ignore the Luckster and they should instead increase Charming's charisma, which the Prime Minister agreed and said that Naegi's humiliation will be easy to execute and for now they must make Charming look favorable to the masses of Novoselic.

The chancellor appeared hesitant as he felt kicking Naegi out of Novoselic is the top priority but the Prime Minister said that they will need a solid incriminating evidence that would force the king to acknowledge that Naegi is a security threat and for now they should take their time slowly, which somewhat swayed the chancellor.

"Easy. Just take your time."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"But that brat…"

"Leave it to me. I'll deal with him."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Fine."

The scene shows that Hagakure is offering to read Naegi's fortune, which the Luckster politely declined, yet the SHSL Fortune Teller insisted in letting him read it. Sonia noticed it and approached the two, and she asked Naegi if he has anything to do tonight, which he said he intend to go back to the guest room and stay put.

As the two younger teens are chatting some of the guests saw them and noted that they have a good chemistry and wondered if Naegi would have the courage to woo Sonia, which they felt that they make a good couple.

"It's Princess Sonia…"

"And that boy we saw at the royal ball…"

"Aren't they cute?"

"They make a good pair."

"But he's a commoner."

"I'm sure love would find a way to make them get together…"

"I sure missed my youth…"

"Me too…"

The chancellor overheard it and became more irritated and whispered to the Prime Minister that Naegi is becoming the talk of this party and urged that they need to do something about it as the boy is STEALING Charming's moment, and offered to summon the guards and have Naegi taken away.

The rival royal PR agreed saying that this must be Naegi's reason for being here and said that the boy should be deported right away as he is taking the attention away from Charming and they urged the Prime Minister to do something about Naegi.

"That brat! He needs to be kicked out!"

"I agree."

"We need to make a move."

"I concur."

"We need a plan."

"I'll think of one."

"Hurry."

"I'm trying."

As the Prime Minister is contemplating on making his move, King Nevermind arrived and greeted the visitors and then greeted the rival prince, wishing him a happy birthday, which Charming nodded and thanked the king for the greeting and for accepting the invitation to attend the party, and the king said that it is okay, as it is his duty to attend to this kind of occasion.

As Sonia went to greet her father, Naegi is about to take his leave when the lights suddenly went out, which the reception room is plunged into darkness and the guests were a bit alarmed yet the king assured everyone that everything is okay, promising to restore the lights.

This puts the guests at ease as Sonia assured that they have nothing to be worried about.

"It's okay. Everything will be fine."

"Really?"

""That's good to hear.

"I'm a little worried…"

"The lights will be restored soon."

"Okay."

""I'm waiting.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, a sound of a guitar playing a tune can be heard, and the guests wondered where the sounds came from, and the lights slowly lit and the lights were restored, and everyone was surprised to see something unexpected. It was a bear, wearing a tanktop shirt, jeans, a scarf, wearing a shoulder-length wig with fake beard, and is holding a guitar.

The bear is cosplaying as WWE wrestler Elias, and the bear began playing a simple tune, which the melody is stress-relieving and the guests were awed at seeing a bear playing a guitar and wearing clothes, which makes the bear look like a journeyman traveling from one place to another.

"Look at that…"

"A bear…"

"A cosplaying bear…"

"He's good with the guitar…"

"What a talent…"

"This should be interesting…"

"Yeah…like what happened at the royal ball…"

"This is going to be enjoyable…"
