86 – Scene 086# Repetition

*

“No matter how I look at it, I don’t like it… .”

Bella, who was sitting across from me, was looking at me disapprovingly.

The slightly stretched silver hair seemed to represent her uncomfortable planting.

But because I didn’t do anything.

“… What do you mean?”

“Did you really have to lose weight like that?”

“… ?”

I wondered what this meant again, so I asked her back.

“Is there any reason not to?”

“Why not? no… . no, but just… … . I wonder if it wasn’t bad even when I was chubby. What do you think of Blanche?”

“Yes… . what… . I think I look good.”

“Eh? Yes?”

Blanche is probably because of the way I looked before I gained weight. He replied indifferently, as if he was not particularly impressed.

No, but wasn’t that the same for Bella?

I couldn’t understand why she didn’t deserve it.

I have not only been successful in losing weight completely, but have been successful in building a well-rounded body.

It took time to go from obese to normal weight, but once I got to normal weight, I easily gained muscle.

The body was abused to the limit every day, so the diet was successful in a short period of time.

Thanks to my efforts, Tristan has transformed into a completely different character.

Of course, the first thing I felt was that the eyes of the people around me had changed.

While coming here today, the eyes of the students were stinging. In particular, the female students seemed quite complicated.

When he was young, Tristan was a pretty boy who mistook him for a girl. My current appearance was also a young man with a neutral impression.

If you grow your hair, there will be people who mistakenly think that you are really a woman.

Is that all?

Tristan’s cold eyes, now with added sensuality, seemed to fall into him.

At this time of year, the eyes of the female students had no choice but to go naturally.

Not too long ago, the gaze of fear and contempt towards me changed to a gaze of liking and longing, and I couldn’t adapt.

However, the people closest to me have the same reaction as usual.

No, rather, it seemed that they did not like my change.

“If I have to pick one thing that I regret, my body still looks a little weak. If the Count wants it, I can teach you the proper way to exercise.”

“for a moment. what kind of nonsense is that? Who is trying to teach whom?”

At Blanche’s words, Helga, who was sitting next to me, reacted.

“And what about the count’s body? Are you poor? Did you even look?”

“At first glance, you can tell that much. Trained people show signs of it even at a cursory glance.”

“Heh… . I guess you really looked at it. I saw it for real and it was amazing.”

“Koo, cool… ! What, what did you see?!”

“Miss Bella!”

Blanche patted Bella on the back, who had become agitated while drinking water.

I said, thinking that there would only be misunderstandings like this.

“Hello. Stop talking nonsense.”

“count! Everything, what did you show your escort driver?”

Bella asked me with eyes full of suspicion.

I’m not obliged to answer, but I thought it would be better to be honest. Because it is a specification that is troublesome.

“I just did some exercise in the office.”

“Exercise? What kind of exercise did you do in the office?”

“I did normal repetitive exercises. Because I wanted to sweat a little.”

“Huh… … . So, the Count did a repetitive exercise alone with that escort knight secretly in his office, right? Until you sweat?”

It wasn’t that Bella was wrong, but I felt that my evaluation would be difficult if she affirmed.

I decided to calmly correct her suspicions.

“It’s not wrong, but I was the only one who worked out. She just stayed still.”

“That’s right… . I didn’t know that, and I misunderstood Mr.

“… … .”

I touched my temples.

It was hard to look straight into Bella’s cold eyes, but I had to sigh inwardly at my miserable situation.

To relieve the stuffy mind, I turned my gaze outside.

I could see white snow falling outside the window.

In addition, the snow-covered Meikahel University campus was visible at a glance.

We were at the terrace seats in the student cafeteria.

Not long ago, after pouring a huge budget into this place, remodeling work was carried out.

As a result of this process, the outside seats were separated from the inside seats, ensuring privacy.

It wasn’t a big deal for us to eat at a place like this.

Because I didn’t want to be in the spotlight while eating.

The other day, when I ate with Bella, the eyes of the students stung me.

Besides, Blanche and Helga are together today. Even though it was covered by Bella, the two people’s appearance was also beautiful enough to attract people’s attention.

Adding to that, Tristan, who has lost weight, said it all. Almost everyone looked at us on our way here.

For the time being, it will take time to adjust to this interest.

Bella smiled and asked if she knew what I was thinking.

“why? Do you want to repeat the exercise with me? Poor Countess.”

“… Think whatever you like.”

It was then.

smart.

“Excuse me!”

At the same time as he knocked, the muscular cook showed his face.

Unlike the last time he shrank, he has a bright smile on his face.

he said as he set the food down on the table.

“Thanks to the chairman, I was able to remodel the restaurant. What should I really be thankful for… .”

“Thank you.”

“Thank you, you should be grateful! Besides, wasn’t it embarrassing because the chairman caused unnecessary misunderstandings because of me?”

The other day, the students protested about the head cook kneeling down in emotion.

The content was that I only knew that I was closing the student cafeteria.

It was a scene that could be misunderstood by someone who did not know the circumstances, so it was natural in a way.

If the chef hadn’t actively tried to clear up the misunderstanding, students might have even protested on campus by now.

Of course, even if that happened, it would have been laughable to me… .

“Does not matter. I am used to misunderstandings.”

“Thank you for your understanding… By the way, Chairman. You look good when you lose weight! oh! Of course, he had a great appearance before that, but… !”

“There is no need to say hello. Go and see.”

“Yes, old! thank you! Please enjoy!”

As the cook disappeared, Bella opened her mouth.

“Huh… . After all, everyone seems to be of the opinion that the count is good because he lost weight.”

“Isn’t it better now? My view of the Count has also changed a lot.”

“I know. Blanche. I am so dissatisfied.”

Strange words came out of Bella’s mouth, so I had to ask this time.

“Complaints… ?”

“Yes. Those who had been hostile to the count so far are now more likely to show favor to the count based on appearance alone. I don’t like that.”

Listening to it, I understand Bella’s words.

After losing weight, it was hard for me to know who hated me anymore.

“If you’re going to show favor, did you show favor from the beginning? Ugh… . I was just comfortable when the count was fat. Because the count has become unnecessarily handsome, you can’t tell them apart anymore.”

“… handsome?”

“ah… ?! Wait a minute, that’s not what I mean… .”

At my question, Bella put on a sad expression.

Blanche, Helga, and my gaze focused on Bella.

“So I mean… .”

Bella’s hand twitched as she stuttered.

The ring I had given you the other day was still on that hand.

I decided to help a little for her who was still not honest.

“Isn’t it an illusion that I’m handsome?”

“No, that’s right! That’s what I mean! It’s because the Count is mistaken for being handsome, and it’s because he’s afraid that strangers will seduce him! Then the count is in trouble too, right? isn’t it?”

“yes. That’s troublesome.”

“Then don’t be ugly again.”

“… ?”

“Be so ugly that no one will want to approach the count.”

No, what is this woman saying?

As if she was going to somehow push this far-fetched logic, she swarmed like a child.

“Ah, otherwise they’ll spread rumors that I’m low-quality. Then the count’s notoriety will rise again, right? how is it? Are you scared?”

In this case, there is only one way.

“… I’m going to go to the bathroom for a minute.”

“oh… ! Don’t run away!”

Ignoring Bella’s cries, I left the terrace.

While thinking about what to do with this disingenuous tomboy princess.

Oh yeah. Would it be better if I washed my face?

As I turned the corner with those thoughts in mind, I felt the impact of bumping into a small animal.

“Kyaaah!?”

She stomped her buttock with a small scream.

“I’m sorry!”

A cute girl with reddish hair in two pigtails apologized to me.

As soon as I saw that face, my first thought was, of course, happiness.

Because she was my exclusive maid whom I hadn’t seen for quite some time due to my busy schedule.

Before long, her eyes met mine and her mouth opened wide.

“uh… ? uh?! Count?!”

Wendy was looking up at me with watery eyes.
