I Favor the Villainess

* I'm talking about the Manaria-Suss perspective.

"Sister!

"Hi Claire. Long time no see."

After a long journey in the carriage I stepped down to the Imperial Room, where I was greeted by my dear sister.

"You're still cute, Claire. While we haven't seen each other for a while, the beauty seems to have been polished."

"Hehe, you're good. There's nothing to praise, is there?

Creaking laughing Claire is truly adorable without flattery.

Previously she wore more decadence, but now she is much softer on the ground.

"I'm not flattering you, am I? Claire is really cute. Is it because of Ray that you've become much cuter than before?

"Also, already......! If you were my sister, you'd say something like Ray!

Even so, its face dyeing its cheeks doesn't seem to be full.

"Seeing as I don't deny it, I guess it's a drawing star. Looks like they took my little sister. I'm sad."

"What are you talking about, sister? I'll always be your sister's sister, right?

That's what I said, Claire hugged me.

For my sister, huh?

He used to turn his romantic feverish gaze on me, but now she doesn't have that color.

I deserved it for not responding to her thoughts, but it would still be the thing about humans that makes me miss her.

"Hehe, good. Claire looks fine."

"Yeah. Your sister hasn't changed.... Oh, would you prefer to call me Her Majesty?

"Please don't. Even now, when they call me that, my spine swells. Even if you can't help yourself in the diplomatic arena, you can at least do what you've always done."

"Ha-ha-ha, yes, I did."

teasing eyes.

If this had been before, then more meanness would have won, but now Claire's eyes are clear.

"How's Ray?

"Yeah, to the point of trouble"

"Right. I'm sorry I couldn't attend the wedding."

"It's outrageous. Now your sister is the Lord of one country. We are a citizen. It's only natural that you should think about it."

"Thanks"

I chose a troublesome path to not even be able to attend my beloved sister's anniversary.

"I saw Dr. Trid earlier, but His Majesty the Sains already?

"Yeah, we got there earlier. I heard your sisters would arrive after the tour, so it was up to me to wait."

"Yes. Thank you, Claire"

"You're welcome."

When I laughed, Claire smiled, too.

"How's life in the Empire? When I heard Bauer was offering you to the Empire, I thought I'd stop supporting Bauer."

"If you already have a sister. I'm living a lot more comfortable than I was worried about. It was only in the beginning that I felt a little tingled."

"Ray's with you, too?

"Stop teasing me."

Claire turned away a lot.

Such tricks are even cuter.

"Haha, I'm sorry. Sister, I've been separated. Forgive me for thinking I'm hungry."

You don't remember me leaving your sister, do you? It's not sweet enough yet. "

"I'm glad to hear it."

"It's true."

and so on, those under his ministry have encouraged him to move.

"Let's talk on foot"

"Yes."

I started walking as I took Claire's hand and escorted.

Claire responds naturally to that, too.

"I feel sorry for Bauer about the Trinity Alliance."

The idea of forming an alliance in the three kingdoms of Suse, Appalachia and Bauer and resisting the Empire did not end up bearing fruit.

On the contrary, Bauer was sniped at by the Empire and as a result, the Clares were to be offered to the Empire.

"Please don't apologize. As an exchanger, your sister only sought out the best for her country. I am also a former nobleman. That's all I know."

"It would help if you said so."

Claire became better at figuring things out.

I used to have a narrow field of view, a strong myopic surface and that's where I was cute again, but now I have a much more mature field of view.

I miss a little that the person who changed her like this is not me.

"Wasn't Ray angry, too?

"I was very angry at first. But when I found out my resolve was firm, he thought with me in that direction. She can't possibly understand your sister's distress."

"I hope so"

Ray-Taylor.

My second love.

Loving Claire so much, she changes the color of her eyes when it comes to Claire.

Claire says oh, but I'm sure Ray resents me.

Of course, as Claire says, you understand my position.

On top of that, "it's that, this is this," I don't think I forgot my criticism of me for driving Claire into distress.

"It's okay. Ray loves your sister, too."

Claire laughed to reassure me by saying so.

She really grew up.

Unfortunately, I've never fallen in love with Claire, but I can tell she's grown into an attractive woman.

But I don't like her in a romantic way.

Claire looks too much like that guy.

A little bit of the upper edge, and also the essential part.

My first love.

And it's filled with pain and regret.

"Speaking of which, where's Ray? It's unusual not to be with you, isn't it?

"... His Majesty Sain asked me the same thing earlier, but we're not together all four or six hours, are we?

"Apart from the real deal?

"Sister!

When teased, Claire responds very well.

This place looks just like that guy.

"Ray is acting differently at another job today. I work with former college students on materials."

"Heh. It's about Ray, so the students would have admired him, too, right?

"That's not what happened. Sure, most students admire Ray, but there's only one kid who hates her."

"That's unusual again. What kind of kid?

I got a little interested.

I wonder what the hell kind of kid I hate about that girl I fell in love with.

"You're a little introverted. Low mouth count, a little poisonous tongue. Speaking of which, you're wearing rare glasses."

"Heh."

I thought, "Oh.

Because the bitter memories I just remembered and the figures I just heard painted similarities.

"You're an unusual kid. I knew someone like that. What's your name, by the way?

"Uh, you're Eve. Eve-nun."

"... what?

I was furiously upset by the name.

Because.

'Cause that name...

"Wait, Claire. Eve? Eve-nun?

"Yeah, I am. What's up, sister?"

"No... she... no..."

My mistake.

The beloved who hurt me.

He disappeared from before me, you phantom.

"Sister?

"Claire, show me to that person! Now!"

"Hey, hey, please calm down. What the hell is wrong with Eve?

Claire is a wolf.

Still, it must not be as good as I am.

Because.

Because she...

"She was the first lady I ever loved."
