Lydia-Aynesworth.

After the Battle of the Far East ended, I continued to work as a researcher in a way that would attract me to the Western Hall.Many of the papers presented are innovative, and many people are constantly watching her trends.

For her, however, research is only secondary.

Now what is Lydia's primary interest? That's...

"Lydia, it's morning."

"Uhh... uhhhh..."

Early in the morning, when Kara comes into Lydia's room, she shakes her body.After a long relationship, Kara knows Lydia is weak in the morning.Because I don't wake Date every day.

"Thirty minutes left...."

"I'll be late. Besides, will you see Ray-sama?"

"Yes! That's right!"

Lydia woke up trying to get rid of Gabba and the futon.

Yes, Ray was the one she was most interested in.

The Magic Area Run "Overheat" was almost healed, and Lydia's role in suppressing Ray's Magic Area Run "Overheat" using her Magic Area was no longer necessary.

There were some temporal factors, but the free use of the magic area also improved the curative magic streets, and Lydia was able to stand with a wand.I still use wheelchairs, but now I often walk with rehabilitation.

Yeah! I knew Kara's rice was delicious!

"Thank you."

Almost four years have passed since we lived together.At first they had a sense of distance, but now they are close like real sisters.Originally, when Lydia no longer needed a wheelchair, Carla's role was about to end.

Her lineage belonged to the Kingdom's intelligence services and she was thinking of returning there.But Kara volunteered to stay with Lydia.

All right, let's go again today.

"Yes, I'll serve you."

Leave the Mansion.

They're headed for Arnold Magic Academy.

Lydia has been working at the Academy as a teacher since this year.I am not yet in charge of the class because I am new.He teaches mainly magic classes, among which he teaches first-year practical magic.

Besides, there's always Kara by Lydia.Even though I can walk with a cane, I still need help.

"Hmm... Ray and Stella are fine again today."

That's right.

When Lydia arrives at the academy, she looks at her white brothers and sisters who have been running since morning.This is already a routine.In the first place, if you come to college normally, you don't have to get up early in the morning, but Ray and Stella are getting up early because they're worried.

Should I be worried about it the most...?Kara thinks.Especially, I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that Ray's obsession is abnormal.

It is no longer a daily routine to be asked about Ray.

I've been listening to Kara at the academy, but now I can see it directly with my own eyes.I thought it would relieve the boulder a little, but that didn't happen.

"Lydia, it's time to get ready for class."

"Wait... now Ray is talking about something.Maria... don't you hear? You mean Maria-Bradley? "

"Maria, the second daughter of the Bradley family, is certainly very close to Ray, isn't she?Unlike other ladies, I think they have a strange friendship. "

"I see... is Maria-Bradley still on the lookout?But the other three nobles... especially Rebecca-Bradley, are quite skilled.Among them, Olivia comes in... mmm... "

……

Penetrate the faceless.

But Kara was stunned inside.

She knows Ray is hot.It doesn't look bad, and I love muscle tresses, so it's great to wear.In addition, there are natural parts and unpredictable parts, but his personality is straight and pleasant.

It is also understandable to be approached by multiple women.

What I don't understand is Lydia's remarks and behavior, which are carefully chosen by the audience.No, speaking of careful selection, it seems to make sense, but it's actually just jealousy...?I don't think so, but I don't talk about it.

She says yes, and she doesn't want to stick her neck in anything extra.

There is no doubt that the next thing that will happen is the Shuraba.Besides, the three noble ladies are waiting for their engagement.Rebecca is still officially engaged to Evan-Bernstein, but only formally.

Ray's rivalry has already begun, and Kara understands it more objectively than anyone else.

That's why you can focus on supporting Lydia, but it's going to be a lot of trouble lately.

"Lydia, let's move to the boulder."

Hmm. I can't help it.

Lydia is finally on the move.Although I was able to walk, I was still walking slowly with my cane.If you stay too long, you'll be late for class.

Lydia herself said, "It would be nice to be a little late for class," but Kara stopped by with a scary expression saying, "Absolutely not." Lydia listened to her.

Now, it's no exaggeration to say that Kara is in Lydia's hands.

"Delicious! After all, lunch is not limited to Kara's lunch!"

"Thank you."

Lunch.

Lydia was really wasting her time eating with Ray, but she seemed to realize that she shouldn't interfere with Ray's school life, so she wouldn't go to the boulders.

The two were eating on the idle rooftop.

Lydia always eats with great pleasure.It's been years, and I remember the taste of Kara's meal, but I always use words.Kara was very happy with it.

It's troublesome, but I still think my husband is the only one left.

Phew, it's over for today.

Yes, shall we go home?

"Ray's in the club today, right?"

"Yes, I'm with the Environmental Investigation Department."

If so, can I go home?If it's not the horticulture department, it's fine. "

Yeah.

Lydia monitors the gardening department lightly.Rather, he's been hanging out with Abby lately to become an advisor to the department.Abby doesn't give a boulder a reason only for Ray, so it's been rejected.

Early in the morning, I use a carriage to go to college, but I often walk home with rehabilitation on my way home.

Surrounded by dusk light, they walk.

Lydia is walking at a fairly slow pace with her cane.Kara was standing next to Lydia.You don't go in front, you don't go back, you just lie down.

"Kara"

What's the matter?

All of a sudden, Lydia stops there.I thought maybe it hurt my leg, so I tried to take out the painkiller in the bag, but it wasn't.

"Again, thank you for staying with me forever."

It's not the first time I've been told a word of appreciation.But why? Lydia's words echoed Kara's heart more than expected.

"I've always been sweet.What I give Kara is about the salary. "

"No... that's not true. Besides, my salary is more than double the usual..."

"Well, that's all I can do. I'm sorry."

"Oh, that's not true....."

I didn't think you'd only get paid.Kara has been educated as a human resource to serve as a hub for intelligence since childhood.In other words, it's like espionage education.It was a harsh childhood.

I've never laughed, never cried, just lived by killing emotions.

The story came down that Lydia was looking for a maid.If it was the maid of the ice sword, the permission from the organization was obtained.At first, I was just interested in Lydia, the ice sword.

The greatest genius sorcerer ever.

The results of the Far East battle are better known than ordinary people.

I was wondering what kind of masterpiece I would meet... but Lydia was normal in a better sense than Carla thought.

I laugh a lot and get upset.I am weak in the morning and I can't do my chores myself.Too good as a magician, but that's all.Approximately, you can only live below normal human life.

If left alone, it will definitely be a garbage house.

However, Carla was happy with her little routine of taking care of Lydia and having a lot of conversations.It's not like you're not given anything.

This daily routine is a treasure for her.

"Wow... I... Lydia-sama is giving me a lot of stuff...."

Really?

"Yes, so don't say that.Let me stay by your side forever. "

Listening to Kara's words, Lydia smiles as happy as usual.

"That's right, because I need Kara now."

"Yes, I can't wake up in the morning and I can't make dinner.Cleaning is out of the question. "

"Hmm... that's right..."

Tickle and laugh. With her hand around her mouth, Kara smiled slightly.I'm sure this is the first time I've ever laughed.

Lydia was scratching her cheek with a bitter smile.

"Fufu, that's why I have to be there."

"Yeah, that's right."

Then the two of them were wrapped in dusk light and headed home ─ ─.
