The Princess Sitting Next to Me is a Sweet Girlfriend Only in Front of Me
“By the way, Fia ‘s hair isn’t just a different color from when she’s Princess Stellafia, but the length is different too, right?”
“Yeah, it feels like she’s temporarily shortened it with magic.”
When Fia is in her Fia persona, she has shoulder-length brown hair.
On the other hand, Princess Stellafia has long, waist-length blonde hair.
Both look adorable on Fia ’s cute face, but they leave completely different impressions.
Even I, who shouldn’t be affected by Fia ‘s recognition-blocking magic due to my resistance, didn’t realize until I saw her face-to-face that the two personas are so distinct.
Probably, even without the recognition block, Fia ’s disguise wouldn’t easily be exposed.
“Speaking of which, Heim-kun.”
“What is it?”
“You didn’t mention anything about my ‘Princess Mode’ yesterday. I’m really sad.”
“Well, there wasn’t exactly time for that…”
Rather, anyone who could compliment Princess Stellafia’s appearance in that situation would have to be something else entirely.
Though, I’ll admit, I was initially captivated… But after I pointed out her true identity, Fia went back to being her usual self, so I didn’t associate her with Princess Stellafia anymore.
“In that case, can you give me your full thoughts on it today?”
“Huh? Well, I guess… if you insist?”
She says “full thoughts,” but isn’t the homeroom about to start soon?
Still, the mischievous smile on Fia ’s face tells me she has no intention of stopping.
“Since it’s a good opportunity, I’ll transform right here in front of you!”
She quickly stands up and spins once.
After striking a confident pose, Fia quietly chants a few phrases.
Magic energy spills out from her feet, enveloping her entire body.
Finally, as her hair begins to glow, it transforms into beautiful golden locks — growing longer as if swaying in the wind.
There stood the heavenly treasure I had once seen in a magical photograph.
“Allow me to reintroduce myself. I am Stellafia Magipastel, the third princess of the Magic Kingdom Magipastel. Wise One Heim, I am grateful for the fortune of meeting you here.”
Her words flow smoothly, perfectly befitting a princess.
I only notice I’ve unconsciously risen to my feet at this point.
Placing a hand over my chest, I bow in the standing posture common for subjects in this country.
When we unexpectedly bumped into each other here yesterday, she was already showing her natural reactions, so things didn’t go this way then.
Well, what can I say.
—This is Princess Stellafia.
The beloved figure of the beautiful princess, adored by the people.
And yet,
“…Really, Heim-kun, you’re being way too serious.”
Seeing her laugh so warmly, I think to myself — aside from her family, I might be the only one who gets to see this side of her now.
