36 – Ladies’ Talk (2)

“Sirius sent it back, so let’s talk. So…How far did we talk?”

Shaula sent Sirius away, got out of the sofa, which was too small for the three of them, and returned to the table where Europa and Nepheli were sitting.

Black tea prepared so as not to dry one’s throat and high-end brand snacks prepared to soothe one’s boredom were prepared on the table, giving the atmosphere that the tea party was being prepared in earnest.

“It’s vacation tomorrow, so we asked each other what plans they had. Shaula, who spoke up first, let’s talk about you first.”

Nefeli pointed at Shaulla, clutching her chin and stuffing a chocolate cookie into her mouth. Shaulla placed her hand over her chest as she looked unfazed at being pointed at.

“I’m going to collect information on the students at our academy this time. I found out how fun other people’s dating is by looking at Sirius and Miss Europa.”

“Me…Me and him are like that…”

Shaulla frowned at Europa’s reaction, who was surprised by what they said and stuttered.

“Isn’t that kind of the case? Even though we eat Sirius’ food every day, read together before bed, and sleep in the same bed?”

“…These days we don’t sleep together…”

“…Does it make sense…To hang out with a guy your age every day?”

“…”

At Shaula’s unstoppable curve and Nefeli’s heavy fastball, Europa’s mouth was speechless. She pondered as she covered her flushed face with her hand.

At the time when the flowers were in full bloom, the two men and women were together in the same space every day. Even when her flowers bloomed and she was swept away by the whirlpool of emotions, she didn’t know what would happen, but Sirius didn’t drop her and accepted her everything.

“…Maybe he’s not interested in me as a member of the opposite s*x…”

When she thought of Sirius, who was too calm to be called an adolescent male, Shaulla grinned at her careless words as if she was cute.

“No, I’m sure he’ll be interested. Are there any guys who aren’t interested in having such a pretty person right next to them, like Miss Europa?”

“Is that so…?”

“Right now, the story of Miss Europa is a common trend in our academic hall. She is the eldest daughter of the twelve pillars who inherited the empire, and she has been second in the rank of Muhak-gwan twice in a row and has a great appearance, so there are people who are not interested?”

“That’s right. I don’t know about you, but when I talk to the boys at Muhakgwan, your name always goes up and down. One guy even tried to bribe me to introduce myself because he kept seeing me with you.”

“…But why is he acting so lukewarm…Does he still see me as the child of old?”

The two people, lost for words at the absurd remarks of the person they couldn’t even recognize, put refreshments into their mouths.

‘…Already as hot as sugar melted in a furnace…’

‘…If you think about what you’ve heard, it’s already at the level of a relationship that has already ended, but you’re insisting on saying no?’

Unlike Shaula, who is leisurely drinking tea, Nepheli starts chewing on snacks at random. Of the two, Shaula was the first to speak.

“How about it? Then, how about having Miss Europa confess?

“Should I go that far…”

“How about it? It’s a light confession. I don’t think it’s bad to lightly date an attendant. It’s like a joke when you’re young.”

“And according to rumors, Laland, the chief this time, also said that he had a relationship with a maid older than himself, so I watched it, and seeing the two of them together, I felt like I was seeing the two of you.”

My eyes widened at the words of the two. Can it be said so easily and lightly that the relationship between a master and a servant is transformed into a relationship of lovers who love each other?

She The whirlpool of emotions that felt heavy in her heart calmed down and gradually became lighter. But.

“No.”

In her mind, it was not something to be taken lightly. She couldn’t break a promise, and it was ridiculous that she broke her promise to herself.

She almost fell for her in an instant of temptation. She shook her head, looked at the two, and opened her mouth.

“I made a promise. I decided to confess… When I can catch up with him, Sirius, and protect someone dear to me. And I don’t intend to go out with him so casually.”

Her face, which had been full of hesitation and worry until just now, was filled with her firm will. Seeing that stately figure, Shaula held her nose and said,

“Haa…Really two people without an answer. I like it because they are so… Honest without an answer…”

“Hey, my nose is going to bleed again. Try to calm down.”

She paid her respects to Europa with her starry eyes, as if she didn’t care for Nephili, who fled in dismay.

“If I can help you two, I will help you no matter what. I will even sell my family to help you…!”

“…Isn’t that going too far…?”

“He’s always like this when he’s excited. Anyway, I’m rooting for him. To be honest, I don’t know how strong Sirius is, but he’ll catch up soon. Could it be that he’s a sword master?”

“…”

“…Isn’t it?”

There was a moment of silence at the tea party, starting with cold sweat dripping from the crown of Nefeli’s head.

“What…What’s important! It’s important to know each other’s feelings!”

Shaula, who was dripping with sweat, worked hard to change her mood. Even she, who puts a little effort into her information, her measure of Sirius’s strength was close to unknown. It was because there was no target for comparison yet, and it was not enough to use the opponents he fought as a database.

“…How can I find out what’s on his mind…”

Europa drank a cup of tea to calm him down and sighed deeply, holding the cup with her hands. Shaulla dragged her chair and whispered towards her, who was staring at her as if the black tea in her teacup were the heart of Sirius.

“Then…How about this…?”

Looking at Shaula, who looked like a villain plotting a suspicious plot, and Europa, whose eyes began to twinkle, Nefeli, expecting something to happen sooner or later, put the remaining cookie into her mouth.

Crispy.

Who is talking about me? My ear was itchy, so I dug it with my little finger.

Anyway, I have no friends. Obviously, I can’t say that I have many previous lives, but I can say that I have friends because I have a few friends that I can relate to.

However, in this life, when it comes to friends my age…There are none. Since most of the staff at the academy were older than me, there were many people who saw me as just a younger brother.

In the beginning, only some of the employees were friendly. Since he scolded the servant who was cursing at his owner at the dessert shop the other day, few people approached him.

At this time, why does the young lady flicker in front of my eyes? The lady is the owner…

I was sitting on a bench and staring blankly at the floating clouds. The night sky I saw with a young lady not too long ago was so beautiful.

…Is it because it’s daytime?

Since I was staring blankly at the sky, I felt embarrassed to think that there was no difference between going out to sunbathe and noticing that an unemployed man with nothing to do was only at home.

I got up and ran around the academy to get my body moving. I followed the same route I ran in the morning and thought about preparations for the future.

Dangerous monsters that can be found outside the empire, and demons that always target humans. And on the side of the demons, even the ‘Dark Star’ Church, a group of traitors to mankind. In the future, there are countless enemies targeting the main characters of the original work.

I have to clean up the variables that have changed because of me. Shaula seems to have gotten out of the habit of obsessing over something for some reason, and Nepheli doesn’t fight to death with the lady anymore.

The least variable is Regula. It’s to the extent that if you see me every day, you want to fight.

And…The biggest variable is my lady. My influence was so great that he didn’t show his high-handed and selfish personality at all, and his dependence on me intensified.

I thought that it might be stronger than the original in terms of growth, but it only added to my anxiety because I didn’t know how this variable would affect it.

There was still this much change due to contact with the four heroines by chance, if inevitably, if inevitably. The other heroines are, of course, children of the Twelve Pillars. The inevitable contact will come at any time.

I have to be strong to block countless variables. It was frustrating to not be able to apply excessive exercise to this body, which is still in its growth stage. If I had become possessed as an adult, I wouldn’t have had to worry about this.

Ha ha. The road ahead was blocked, and only a sigh came out.

“You seem to be in a lot of trouble.”

“Ehh.”

I was surprised by the question that came to me unexpectedly, and I quickly fell to the side. A short, dark-brown haired man with a prominent upper body with a fairly fluttering pectoralis major was running alongside me.

…I wondered if I should do a doping test after seeing the unbelievably developed bodies of the same age as me.

“Are you Sirius?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes, meet Prince Laland from the family of the Marquis of Ursa of the Great Star.”

“Ah.”

He was the eldest son of the family of the Marquis of Ursa, who took up a large portion of the male supporting roles and in the episode that went to the north, volunteered as a helper to help the main character’s group.

But why is that person running next to me…?

Please stop using variables…

“I’ve heard a lot about you from Alte.”

Alte … She was a lady-in-waiting of Laland and was one of the servants who received her kindly whenever I saw her face after the entrance ceremony. He was one of my closest employees. Of course, she also treats me like her sister.

“What are you talking about…”

“She said she was the same age as me, but she said she had a lot to learn. When Alte said that, she was curious and searched for a while, but finally, since you were running the academy, she followed me.”

“I see…”

“…”

“…”

Awkward!

Because of the blunt personality that only talks about himself like a real novel, I started running again. Physical strength is national strength, it has many benefits, and if it is lacking, it is a sad existence. I didn’t even think about how much I would run today, I just ran recklessly.

After a while, Laland and I started running inside the academy in silence for an hour.

“You run better than I thought.”

“Gongja-nim runs better than I thought.”

“It was our daily routine for all our warriors in the north to run every morning.”

“I see.”

“…”

“…”

The silence returned, but it wasn’t awkward. Silently, we were doing our own thing, hopping to match each other’s pace.

Was running together so much fun? When I asked to run with a lady, she didn’t run every day because it was annoying, so I ran alone, but running like this made me feel like I lost half of my life.

It’s been two hours since I started running, and it’s the third hour. Slowly, Laland began to spread. When I couldn’t keep up with my pace, I ran to him. When increasing physical strength, it was important to run without walking regardless of speed. I paced him until he stopped.

“Did you… Hitch… Hido…?”

Sweat was pouring down his face as if it were raining on a rainy day.

“I’ve jumped more than this before, so this is light.”

Because during training, I ran with a much heavier weight than this. Running at his pace was like taking a walk.

“Haehan…Hahun…”

When he realized that his pronunciation was so strong that he couldn’t understand what he was saying, he grabbed his knees and breathed wildly. It was so rough that it sounded like a roaring, weeping breath, just like his family grizzly bear.

He was about to fall down, but somehow he managed to hold on and gasp for breath. The expression on his face was one of the most blunt expressions he had ever seen.

“I thought I was confident in my physical strength, but I admired it inside. Do you have any plans to join the Ursa family?”

Why did people get impatient because they couldn’t take me?

“I’m sorry, but I am a subordinate to the Taurus family. Are you willing to hire a Taurus family butler so easily?”

“Hmm? Is there anything special about that family?”

…This person doesn’t seem to know much about our family servants. He felt refreshed for the first time.

“Hmm…It seems good to ask Mr. Alte later.”

“For reference. Do you run every morning?”

“Yes. Before the sun rises every morning, before the lady wakes up, I tend to start my day by running about three laps.”

“Let’s run together then.”

With a slight smile on his blunt face, he asked for a handshake. His big, ugly hand, like mine, was full of scars. He looked at the hand and felt a sense of sympathy, and accepted the handshake.

“Thank you very much.”

“I am.”

It was my first same-s*x friend.

Friends…Will be…

Whether he thought of me as a friend or not, I felt like running every morning would be fun now.

And the day I shook hands with him, I still didn’t know.

There is a rumor that if you play with the butler of the Taurus family, you will play until you die.

The news that the eldest son of the Ursa family, who is said to be number one in terms of physical strength, has spread, along with rumors that there is a maniac who can run.

And there are rumors that Laland, who was defeated in a match against a lunatic, is tormented with jumping steps every morning.

I had no idea that such strange rumors had spread.

After those rumors, summer vacation came.
