Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite

There are many books in front of you. Rion asked Vincent for free time and stayed in the library to study.

It's almost over. No matter how much it looked, no new facts could be found, only to confirm that Leon's thinking was correct.

When it turns out, Rion stops reading and fishing, and is immersed in thinking with all her might.

There is something that Lion cannot understand. Reputation for Vincent after the excursion. Although he has a reputation as the worst Lord who has abandoned his servants to help him, Leon has no idea why this is perceived as bad.

Not only Ryo, who is a foreigner, but flare raised in the slums are extremely rare in common sense. Rion, who was aware of this, threw his common sense in mind after deciding to become a servant.

In particular, I would like to examine the aristocracy and the servants who serve it from the ground up.

From Lyon's knowledge, Vincent's actions were correct as a nobleman and there was no room for criticism. I wondered if there was something missing in my knowledge, and after reading and reading the book, it turned out that my idea was right.

That would raise another question. Vincent's bad rumors have been heard many times before. The fact that the facts were distorted was felt rather arbitrary, and Rion had given the star to the culprit.

A person who is malicious against Vincent and has the power to spread rumors-such as Lancelot of the Axmia family.

Lancelot is unusually hostile to Vincent. Vincent said he was resentful of playing the Trial, but that alone doesn't seem to Leon to be able to turn his hostility this far. He seems to have a connection with Vincent's half-brother, Elwin, so I'm wondering if that might be the case, but I can't afford to look into it.

And it doesn't matter why Lancelot hates Vincent this time. The important thing is that Lancelot, the Houman, cannot send such rumors.

Lancelot should have the same education as Vincent. You shouldn't expect this rumor to be a bad reputation. Of course, there may be personal differences, but Lancelot doesn't seem stupid enough to think that the children of other aristocrats do the same.

Here is one conclusion. At least that wasn't Lancelot's rumor. Then, when it comes to someone, one person easily comes to mind in Rion's head.

As with Lancelot, there are those who have incomprehensible hostility towards Vincent. Regarding Vincent's attitude, Maria Theodore is more eccentric than Lancelot.

Maria, who is a commoner but abuses Hou Vincent, is extraordinary at all costs. If Vincent feels that way, he will take whatever action he or she may have been rude to. You may have even got the backing of Lancelot or maybe Prince Arnold, but I still don't understand that attitude of ruining things.

And from Lion's point of view, her attitude is the fox who borrows the tiger's power, but she herself seems to believe in her own righteousness. Much of what I'm saying is just unreasonable.

He considered the possibility of just being naive, but quickly denied it. Even flares, orphans in the favela, know that they must not be against the nobility. A parent in the family who wants to enroll in the school cannot help teaching.

So what was she-when she came to that question, a dark thing spread in Rion's mind.

Rion, not Flare, only Ryo, affirms some of her unreasonable words so far.

It is not the idea of this world, but the idea of another world where Ryo was born and raised. She, who has the same mindset as Ryo, may be another world, or someone with the same memory of another world as her.

As long as he is himself, Leon cannot deny it. There is no need to deny separately. If Mary is just that.

Ryo's knowledge comes to mind for further possibilities. For Rion, the possibility of absolutely denying it.

I tried to suppress the throbbing heartbeat by taking many deep breaths. Apparently, it seemed to work, and I felt a little calmed down.

It's not time to worry about your imagination anymore, it's time to confirm it with action. Rion slowly rose from the chair.

◇◇◇

Maria Theodor. The institution's grade is the second highest after Prince Arnold, an extremely excellent student. What's more, it's rumored that the magic's abilities are beyond Prince Arnold, Lancelot and Charlotte.

The fact that she is a commoner with a magical talent that surpasses that of royal and royal families is not something that can be admirably imposed. Under such circumstances, it is not possible to know how far it is actually just talking in the shade. In the first place, magical talent cannot be easily compared. Even so, there is no doubt that her ability is beyond the level of ordinary people.

Noble blood is talented blood. In this world where this is common sense, her existence was foreign.

She is a native, but her background is a bit complicated. Originally an orphan, he was adopted by the current Theodore Baron at an early age. It seems that Theodore's adopted the adorable appearance and talent for adopting her.

Rion wondered how to find the child's talent, but her dark hair and clear blue eyes seem to indicate her talent.

Black hair, which appears to have nothing to do with heredity, seems to be a sign of excellence in magic. I couldn't understand why I checked it. It seems to be a kind of legend. And the blue of the eyes and the vivid blue are proof of high suitability for water attributes. Rion knew this as knowledge.

If that's the reason I found my talent, at least for her black hair, Leon is the same, but she doesn't feel happy about it. I don't want to stand out. Fortunately, it doesn't seem so credible, and thanks to that, Leon hasn't heard anything from around him.

Anyway, believing in Maria's talent, her parents adopted her expectations, and beyond that she demonstrated her talent. From an early age, she showed astounding intellect and, thanks to her parents' enthusiastic educational achievements, began to express her magical talents early on. Her excellent appearance has grown further year by year, and her beloved Maria has been described as beautiful.

Such, she has entered the school. Take your parents' expectations on their own.

In order to make their talents publicly recognized, and to create an opportunity for their first-generation noble family to be recognized as hereditary aristocrats.

After Vincent reached out and read the report he had examined, Leon sighed greatly.

Unfortunately, it was almost exactly what I thought.

In addition, I repeat what I checked at the school. Many admired Maria, who had a talent for painting, and many more repelled her.

To put it simply, boys yearn for girls, and girls are fiercely hostile. This is also as expected.

In particular, the jealousy of the aristocratic schoolgirl is tremendous, and seems to have suffered a bit of oppression. But she doesn't seem to be crushed by it. No matter how he is treated, he seems to be patient.

Supporting her are Lancelot and Prince Arnold, who has recently been shortened. Two people protecting Maria for something. That's a vicious cycle that creates jealousy for female students, but we don't care about that.

The salon for younger children of the upper aristocracy now seems to be a place of relaxation for only four people, including Charlotte.

It seems that she would not be bullied if she were there, but she couldn't be there all the time, so it was only counterproductive. They don't even know that they're crazy about Maria.

Who is Maria Theodor? Rion kept thinking about it. Investigate the possibility that came up, and conversely, thoroughly deny it.

I repeat it over and over, and I can't deny it, but it still has the possibility of being outrageous. With the possibility to deny the most, Rion decided to accept it.

The worst thing left-this world is not just another world. Probably in the world of love games, the main character is Maria. And Maria knows that fact and is acting on her knowledge of the game.

This is all you need. It is only necessary for the Crown Prince and the sons of the Marquis to capture anything and enjoy the reverse Har state without permission. But there is a reason Rion can't end it.

In a romance game, there are enemy characters that disturb the hero in addition to the capture target characters. Given the situation, Vincent is probably an enemy character or, given what has happened so far, a ladder character to make the hero stand out.

And Aeriel, the fiancé of Prince Arnold, who is the target of the capture-the moment of thinking, a flame of anger burns in Rion's heart. Rion can never forgive the imitation of Aaryel.

Even if it was the protagonist of this world.

◇◇◇

"I'm happy. Rion-kun will take the invitation."

"I heard that Mary was very worried about me during the excursion. I can't go on like that forever."

Maria smiles happily and Rion smiles back. Hide your inner heart under your expression.

"Isn't it better to speak broken?"

Maria tilts her head lightly and tells her to look up slightly. Many people will find this gesture cute.

"I usually have this tone, so it's easier."

"Even so, at least, my name is."

"Is it a name?"

"It's good in Maria"

"That's why I'm not a classmate, I'm just a servant of the Winheels."

"But I'm a commoner."

"... If there is no mistake in the memory, was the parent's family a semi-baron?"

"That's right, but a nobleman is not recognized as a nobleman."

Maria who says this in her own mouth has changed. It's common to think that the quasi-baron wants to be seen as a noble.

"Yes, that's the view from the hereditary nobles, and from my point of view as a commoner, it's still a noble house."

"Is that so?"

"Yes"

"But ..."

For Maria, having a crown in her parents' house does not seem like a good thing. I don't know why, but Leon decides to keep this fact in one corner of his head. The immediate goal is to collect any information about Mary anyway.

"... I see. Then are you sure you want to be called Maria?"

"Isn't it ...? Yes! That's fine!"

Maria turns a glowing smile on Rion. Even though Rion does not have a good impression on women, she has an expression that makes her feel excited. Every time such an emotion springs into her mind, Rion switches consciousness. You can't completely change your consciousness, but you can still change the amount of consciousness to either Ryo or Flare, but it works.

What is the effect on it is the effect on the charms that Maria emits. I don't know if it's an enchanting magic, but Rion felt sensitively that something worked on his mind.

It was something that could only be done because Lion was always in the heart of himself, who was always staring at his own mind with the eyes of a third party.

And even the lion, who is far more resistant to mental attacks than others, is the terrifying fascination of the affected Maria.

I understood that it was a special ability given to the protagonist's protagonist, but Rion has a strong fascination and thought that it would be a game.

Maybe it's a ridiculous, boring game. I was thinking about such a silly thing.

"Where are you going?"

"eh?"

"that?"

"Oh, sorry. I didn't think."

"Yes, that's right. I'm not going to go anywhere."

You probably thought it was natural for men to do a date plan. Not wrong. I just don't think Rion is a date.

"No. Then are you sure you want to go to a store I know?"

"Rion-kun? What kind of store is that?"

"A place where you can eat delicious sweets."

"Oh, I'm so happy! I was starving for delicious sweets!"

Maria's reaction is perfect. As a Lion, it was worth the adventure. We don't use sweets in this world. It should have been no doubt that the Hou's servants did not know. Maria, who was able to receive sweets as sweets and desserts, has knowledge of another world. That was confirmed.

Maria and Rion, who had been thoroughly avoiding until now, decided to shorten the distance.

If it's true, I want to kill them all at once, but Leon stops it. The question that emerges from Ryo's knowledge is whether the hero can be killed so easily.

If this world is a game and Maria is the protagonist, things will go in the direction of Mary's convenience. The so-called hero correction.

In fact, Vincent's rumors are such that, from Rion's point of view, they wonder why this is the case.

In the game world where hero correction works, I don't think it can kill the hero. It would be good if the game had such a bad end, but Rion did not know what kind of game this world was, and even if he knew, Ryo had never played a game of this kind of genre , I do not know the settings.

Then what should we do.

One of the things that Maria knows about is to get the knowledge of this world and get in the way of capture. Another thing is that if you can't do that, you won't go on the least convenient route.

The bottom line is that you will not be able to take the route to capture Aeriel's fiance, Prince Arnold.

If this works, Eriel will not be a rival character. I don't think you'll be involved at all, but you don't have to be an important character.

To accomplish this, Leon is approaching Mary.

I arrived at a coffee shop where Rion came to shop several times. It is a place called Vincent Warrant. Desserts have noisy Vincent's favorite, and they have pretty good desserts.

"This is a welcome!"

An acquaintance clerk greets Rion carefully.

"Since it's private today, such greetings are useless."

"Private? Oh, oh, no, but ..."

Looking at Maria behind her, the clerk seems to have noticed the situation, but is somewhat crisp.

"It's for private use. You can come with anyone, right?"

Rion considers this to be a clerk's prying attitude, and expresses her discomfort.

"Yes, of course ...

"Can I sit on a vacant seat?"

The shop assistant still says something, but Rion did not allow it. I don't want to imagine my relationship with Maria strangely.

"……sure. Go ahead"

Upon hearing the clerk's reply, Rion quickly heads to a vacant seat. That way, I'm worried about my surrounding gaze this time.

Rion, who has an eyepatch, even though it looks like a woman, and Maria, who is also stunningly beautiful, are walking along with her, so I can't help but attract her attention.

Rion is accustomed to the unpleasant gaze from the surroundings, but now it feels a little different and uncomfortable.

As soon as he reached his seat, Rion felt some glances turned to himself, but when he came this far, he separated from consciousness that he had no choice but to care.

"Nice atmosphere"

"Well, isn't it beautiful? It's a luxury store."

"Is that so?"

"In my opinion, on the contrary, I know only these stores. There is no eating out for private use."

"Maybe you don't take a break?"

"I don't have a fixed break.

"Yes. Rion was an orphan, right?"

"... from whom did you hear that?"

"Lancelot"

"Who is Lancelot?"

"It's ... angry?"

"No. There are only about Vincent-sama in the institute who knows my identity, so I just wondered."

"Yes. Lancelot asked Elwin."

"Oh, did that happen? Maria also knew Elwin-sama?"

"Once only. At Lancelot, we had a tea ceremony and we met at that time."

"Oh really"

Maria leaks information very easily. Do you not know the internal circumstances of the Winheels family, or do you know but do not need to hide?

Things are very different depending on which one you are. The latter is a big problem for Vincent.

"I heard a little more about it."

"What are you talking about?"

"Are you getting very bad treatment?"

"... up to that?"

It's still good until Rion is an orphan. It's a problem when it comes to odd eyes. If the servant becomes an odd eye, the reputation will be reduced again.

"Yes. I heard you're being called a pet. That's terrible. It's a human being a pet."

"Well, that?"

Why did this earlier story reach Mary? It was so surprising that Rion instinctively answered.

"eh?"

"Ah, no. I don't care, because I was saved."

"It's been fooled. People have the right to a minimum of living."

"Is it a right?"

"Yes, there's even Rion-kun. I live normally, that's a matter of course.

"... Huh"

After all, Leon cannot understand Maria's case. Same thing for Ryo. I know what I mean, but I don't know what it means here.

"I want to help Rion-kun. I don't know what I can do, but if I can get everyone's help, I'm sure I can do something."

Staring at Leon's eyes, Maria appeals with a serious expression. Mary's hand was holding on to Rion's hand.

Rion is puzzled by an overly aggressive approach.

"Um ... let's do something for now?"

"... That's right."

Without knowing what to do, Rion decides to divert. Unfortunately, it's a bit too late.

The clerk who appears to receive the order started talking to Rion with a worried face.

"Um ... angry?"

"Are you angry?"

"I think it's angry ..."

"What is it?"

"So ..."

Moving his eyes only, the clerk is trying to tell something. Beyond that line of sight.

"……Lie"

There was a terrifying smile of Eriel, as she was almost trembling.
