Light Novel Chapter 3

妖精さんは怒らない (Yousei-san wa Okoranai, lit: The Fairy Doesn't Get Mad) is the third chapter of the light novel series of The "Hentai" Prince and the Stony Cat.
==Plot==
Youto reflects on his predicament since making his wish at the Stony Cat shrine. Without his facade, he continuously blurts out inappropriate thoughts, further solidifying his reputation as the "Perverted Prince." He feels isolated and desperate to reclaim control over his life, acknowledging the consequences of his unfiltered honesty.
Tsukiko observes Youto's interactions and suggests focusing on Azuki Azusa, believing her to be the likely recipient of Youto's facade. Youto and Tsukiko observe Azusa's behavior during lunch, noting her solitary demeanor despite her public facade as a noblewoman. Youto also notices the choker Azusa wears around her neck, which appears awful similar to the belt he lost when praying to the Stony Cat.
Youto directly confronts Azusa in front of a large crowd, demanding the return of his "precious thing." He declares that Azusa has stolen everything from him, and that he wants her everything as well. However, since that is too big of an ask, he instead asks to stay by Azusa's side at all times, so they can share this "precious thing." Azusa, caught off-guard but unable to go against the urge to hide her honesty, agrees to let Youto stay close to her as her "pet."
Youto and Tsukiko dig deeper into Azusa's life and discover that her wealth and aristocratic demeanor are fabricated: Azusa works multiple part-time jobs, including as an animal maid and a traffic control worker, to maintain her false image; Her choker, a symbol of her facade, is revealed to be Youto's leather belt, confirming that she is the recipient of his facade. Despite her financial struggles and challenging lifestyle, Azusa clings to her facade, driven by pride and a fear of rejection.
Youto, Tsukiko, and Azusa spend a day at a game center, hoping to bond and help Azusa embrace her true self. The trio participates in various activities, including crane games and rhythm games, creating moments of levity. However, they are interrupted by the arrival of the Steel King, Tsutsukakushi Tsukushi. It is revealed that Tsukushi and Tsukiko are sisters, with a strained relationship stemming from their different personalities and Tsukushi's overbearing nature. Youto and Tsukiko flee the game center to avoid further conflict, leaving Azusa behind momentarily.
Upon returning, Youto and Tsukiko find Azusa being mocked by her former classmates, who expose her past as a socially isolated student. Though the encounter was by pure chance, Azusa lashes out at Youto and Tsukiko, assuming that they had planned to set her up and deceived her with false kindness.
