Stella’s jaw dropped as she looked at the photo.

“Ikki, h-how did...”

The background was undoubtedly the clearing Ikki and Stella always went to for training, while in the foreground, the two of them were very clearly kissing. And this photo was on the front page of every newspaper in the stack. In other words, their relationship had been leaked by someone from the school, bringing about the scandal the two of them had feared.

“It’s a good picture, isn’t it? Captures both of your faces perfectly. Modern nighttime cameras can take pretty high-quality photos even when there isn’t much light. Geh heh heh. You probably don’t realize this because you’re out in the middle of nowhere, but all of Tokyo’s in an uproar right now. It’s not proper to be getting so frisky with an honored guest of the state, Ikki-kun.”

“W-Wait a second!” Stella shouted as she started rifling through the articles. “This is utterly ridiculous! Who wrote this disgusting libel?!”

She pointed to the headlines, which were all some variation of “The Man Who Stole the Princess’s Chastity” or “King Vermillion Outraged” or “Is This an International Incident?!” To make matters worse, the articles all painted Ikki as a scoundrel. They claimed he was a delinquent who’d caused nothing but trouble for his family and slept around with dozens of women. It even claimed he was cheating on Stella. Not a word of it was true. But that wouldn’t stop the public from believing it. Especially not since the Kurogane family had corroborated the untrue claims that Ikki was a problem child.

Still grinning, Akaza turned to Stella and said, “Oh, I assure you it’s not libel, my dear princess. Every word of those articles is true. You were just deceived by Ikki-kun. Don’t worry, though. No one would ever blame you for that. He’s a wily one, after all. But I’ve known him since he was a child, and while it pains me to speak badly of family, I can tell you that he’s always been a worthless miscreant. He shoplifted, got into fights, and even blackmailed people. Look, here are testimonials from all the people he’s wronged. Geh heh heh.”

“This is all bullshit! Ikki isn’t the kind of man to do those things, and anyone who knows even a single thing about him would realize that immediately!”

“Geh heh heh. Well, regardless of what you think, Princess, these articles have been published, and the public believes them. We’ve already gotten numerous complaints calling for Ikki’s knight status to be revoked. As a result, we’ve been forced to hold an emergency inquiry to get to the bottom of this matter. The inquiry will evaluate whether or not Ikki-kun possesses the qualifications necessary to be a proper Mage-Knight, and if it’s decided that he doesn’t, the Ethics Committee will ask that the main branch strip him of his knight status and exile him from the Mage-Knight Federation. I’ve come here to bring him to his hearing.”

After hearing that, Stella was one hundred percent certain
