Alice looks back as surprised. But Silvi clearly denied it.
"I'm not being held. Because Arthur used the antidote for me."
"Yeah? You mean he liked you, but he used the antidote without holding you?... it's never going to happen in a game."
Silvi said powerlessly to Alice, who swept her neck all the time.
"Stop it. I know it's different from the game."
"... you did. Sorry, but, you know what?"
With a roaring voice, Alice raised her head to Silvi.
"... let me apologize after all. I had to realize that Leon might be using ecstasy. I had no idea you could put ecstasy in while I wasn't watching. This is my mistake."
"No one will ever know Leon is going to put an ecstasy in it. It's not Alice's fault."
I meant it, but Alice stayed dropped.
"I get it. Leon also used ecstasy in the game. Even if it's not the same as the game, it doesn't change that you have the twats to get it. We should have been a little more alert that Leon might be on the hard side."
"If you're going to say that, I thought somewhere in my heart that Leon would be okay too because he's my brother.... I think it's the same crime"
Doesn't mean which is worse.
If I dare say so, would both? We both should have been more alert to Leon, who we know is flagged with offensive characters.
I think a half-way vigilance caused this situation.
"As a result, I was safe, and I was able to protect my virgin. Nothing has happened that I can't take back. So..."
"Even though I had to go to a nightclub at Arthur's escort?
"Ahh."
Zubali was told, and Silvi solidified. Alice looks at her like that and laughs small.
"You don't want to go to Arthur Route, do you? Surely next week's night club is not an engagement nomination night club where the game says it is. But that's all we're talking about, isn't it? What if an event happens in advance? Are you sure you can get away with this?
"Oh, that's..."
They poked me where it hurt.
Yeah, it's not like a game. There was ample chance that next week's night club, a mere night club where nothing would normally happen, would turn into an important event.
"So, but you can't just not go. Your father promised..."
"That's why I'm sorry. I knew you wanted to avoid Arthur, but I ended up talking about this.... I'm so sorry. I mean, I didn't mean to, but..."
"It's okay. Because Alice always helps me. And I'm sure you'll be fine. I feel a little used to avoiding Arthur lately. I'll make sure you get back safely with minimal contact."
I cut off Alice's words to apologize further.
There are no lies in the dialogues that have been issued. To tell you the truth, Alice moistened her eyes.
"Silvi......"
"Thank you for saving me from Leon earlier. Glad to hear it."
"That's obvious because we're friends, right?
"Alice......!
Listening to Alice, Silvi stood up as if she had been played. That's how I hug Alice thoughtfully.
"Alice, I love it!
Alice, who took Silvi, blinked her eyes and then distorted her lips willingly.
"Huh? But I, I don't have a lily hobby? How much of an offensive character do you think you should stop making me your lover?
"How can that be the story!
It was supposed to be a good occasion to impress, but it's ruined because of Alice.
But it makes me laugh naturally.
And finally realizing that I was naturally laughable, Silvi thanked her best friend wholeheartedly after all.
