Later, Alan said again, 'It's a battle!' I beat him to the margin for coming.

Even then, every once in a while, I said to my house, 'Compete!' And the days went on to beat Alan as he came aboard.

Fine, because they come frequently, we are now friends for the price, and after the battle, we became friends for tea and stuff together.

Plus, I feel like Alan looks kind of alive and fun these days, even though he's still losing.

Is it my fault?

That's how I was doing it somehow well...

But the day finally came.

"Geold!? Why are you here!

Geold and Alan bowled together in the Kraes' garden.

One comes without three days open, and one comes at the pace of Monday, so it's no wonder the bowl fits.

Mary, a little more Tuesday pace a week than Alan, had already greeted Geold.

By the way, he was telling Geold a little about Alan coming to the fight.

But I didn't tell Alan that Geold was coming without three days.

Exactly how you know I'm Geold's fiancée...

Alan, who seemed a lot hostile to Geold, hesitated to wave Geold's story.

And the brothers, who looked like they had no interaction at all, didn't seem to grasp each other's plans, and this is how they happened to be bowling at home.

"Why do you say strange things? This is my fiancée's house, so there's nothing wrong with being here."

Geold smiles back like that.

Sure, you're right, but I think it's too much to come without three days...

Or are they all like this everywhere?

"... Anyway, I'm going to compete with this guy today, so stay out of my way"

Alan has no more momentum than usual.

I wonder what happened to the usual Aura.

To Alan, who is so strange about how things are going, this one too, says Geold, who feels like his smile smells more like a lie than usual.

"It's that battle, but they haven't won it many times already, have they? Shouldn't it be time to give up now"

That's what I said. Geold's eyes were very cold though.

Sure I thought that too thin... but I can't believe I'm going to say that straight...

I thought Alan might get angry again, but I was afraid Alan might.

I didn't see any anger on that face...

He just had a very spicy look on his face.

"... no!! We haven't got a fight yet! Even I can do it! Me too... Me too..."

Alan screamed in a desperate voice that kind of kept him hanging up.

Already, all Alan's eyes seem to see is Geold.

An unspeakable air flows through the garden of the Klaes family.

Kick, awkward......

I don't have half the outside feel of a mosquito net myself... but this air is awkward

All right, we need to change this air on something else here.

And we should get rid of that air, I recently decided to make a suggestion that I had always thought about.

"... Oh, that Alan lady. Good. Are you sure you want to change the contents of the match? Because if you climb too many trees, it's time for your mother to tear you apart and piss you off."

As a matter of fact, it's a tree climbing battle I haven't miraculously missed my mother yet, but I feel like it's time to suck.

I'm already a mother who looks like I've given up climbing trees, but if I could just have let the prince climb trees too, that would be a lot of thunder.

At the time of Alan's visit, the story of his dependable brother-in-law Keith, who is dealing with his mother, seemed to indicate that it was time for her mother to start suspecting something.

It's time to change the contents of the battle here. Seriously bad.

"... if that's the case... then why compete"

"... ugh."

Finally Alan saw me better.

I think the awkward air just now faded a little too.

Good. Good.

But I wish I told you to make the contents of a different battle from me...

Honestly, the reality is that there's not much magic or academics can compete with me on average.

Or will Alan be satisfied if he loses to Cotempan first?

But that's regrettable.

As I twisted my head, "Uh-huh," one of Alan's servants raised his voice.

"Well, if it's a board game or something, you don't have to worry about getting hurt."

Sure, a board game might not hurt you or make a difference between men and women...

But... since my last life, I don't like trumps and Othello's head system.

Here, I don't even like chess anymore.

I can't, but I regret losing.

Seeing as how I seem a lot dissatisfied, I hope the servant doesn't think this is going to work.

"So how about an instrument? I mean, I'd rather play better than win."

He gave me a new suggestion.

An instrument... by the way, there seems to be something aristocratic about being able to play an instrument here, and that's how I'm learned to play piano and violin.

I was the only one in my previous life who only played Recorder and Pianica, but now I can play a little piano.

The violin was...... unfortunately not for me.

"Me, a piano would be fine."

Alan also indicated his agreement when I answered well.

Thus, the battle moved from tree climbing to piano playing showdown.

You've become an aristocratic battle at once.

If this were to happen, your mother wouldn't have dropped the thunder if she found you.

Beside me so relieved, Alan's servants rejoice that 'I'm so glad the tree climb is over'.

The servant who proposed an earlier instrument confrontation had been praised by other servants for 'doing well'.

Everyone then moved to a room with a piano for a reassuring piano showdown.

The Klaes' piano is a big, splendid piano, like the Duke's.

It feels much more splendid than it was in the music room in my previous life.

We decided to ask Alan's servants and our servants because it was a performance showdown, and then we asked Geold, who had followed us together, to judge us.

Thus the stage of the battle was to be played by me at the beginning and then Alan.

I sat in my chair and headed to the piano.

In my previous life, I could only play cat flunky, and I played a practice song for kids about what's in this world.

A few small failures, but well I think I could play there.

In fact, Geold was surprised that "you can play piano on Catalina".

That's a compliment, isn't it?

And then Alan went to the piano and started playing.

To make a fair difference, the song is the same practice song for kids as I am.

It was supposed to be the same song...... but it rang in the room as if it were another song.

Everyone in the room, including me, accidentally took a breath.

So much Alan played great.

I wanted to listen to the performance.

I'd be surprised if you thought he was just my outrageous prince.

As such, when the performance was over, there was a round of applause that I did not keep after my performance.

"Wow. Dear Alan, you're really good."

I raised my voice unexpectedly.

Honestly, I barely know anything about music or anything like that. It was enough to show that I'm good at listening.

But the key Alan himself looked stiff.

"Nothing, no big deal"

"That's not true. Isn't that a great talent?"

"... there's nothing I can call talent"

Why, the more praise you give, the harder Alan's face gets.

And...

"Catalina was right, it was really great."

Geold praises the performance just like I do.

"... you never thought you would"

Alan told me to spit it out. That face looks just as bad and spicy as it was earlier.

"Stop flattering me boring! Anyway, you're making fun of me for thinking I can't do anything!

Alan screams. I jumped out of my room like I was running away from something.

I didn't know what the hell...

It kind of makes me feel like I have to chase him when I can get away so hard.

Suddenly confused servants, I followed Alan as a girl comic book hero.

It seems true that people somehow go somewhere they're used to even running away.

Alan was always under a tree fighting with me on a tree climb.

Alan raised his face a little as I approached him, but when I checked my face, he leaned down again.

"... you've come to laugh too"

"Huh?"

Alan shrugged, but I have no idea what that means.

What have you come to laugh at? I don't think it was particularly pleasant.

"... you've come to laugh at me saying you don't care enough to play the piano a little bit"

"... he said he could play the piano a little... I don't think that was a little bit more level. It's a great talent."

I thought Alan was me for a little while after all that playing, but are you actually humble?

If they take that as a little bit, my playing will rank down no good from there.

"Compliments are good. I can't do anything anyway. The rest of Geold."

Alan actually seemed like a negative prince when he thought it was me.

"... I'm not flattering you... how can Alan be so unsure?

"Ha. I've been compared to Geold ever since I was born, and whatever I do, I can't beat him. How can you be confident when you keep telling me all the good things about Geold in your stomach are left behind that they took with them?"

Oh, well. Speaking of which, that's what the game set me up for.

I've been compared to Geold since I was born and I'm no match for anything I do.

No matter how desperately he tries, Geold goes over it with a cool face.

Certainly in such a situation, it wouldn't be so easy to be told to work hard with confidence.

Anyway, the game didn't save Alan, even Mary, a sweet, cute fiancée.

Still, Alan is never inferior. Even school grades should have always been top notch in games. My brother Geold is just too superhuman.

Plus the piano was really brilliant earlier. Maybe Alan has a musical talent.

I do think I had some violin to play for the main character in the game.

Probably more talented than Geold when it comes to music.

I mean...

"... I think it's an unsuitable issue."

"... what do you mean?

Shit. I put it in my mouth. Alan is looking at me so much.

"Er, well... there are things that Geold is good at and doesn't like, and I guess Alan has things that Alan is good at, which means they're unsuitable and obvious."

I went all the way, but I managed to explain it.

"Are you unsuitable... So, what's not good for Geold? I've never heard of it before."

Sure, there doesn't seem to be anything bad about a genius Geold who does anything without doing it.

The swordsmanship arm is very smarter than the original.

You're supposed to be here to visit us so much...

Even the harvest of the field, which you helped so much, is obviously more efficient and faster than mine.

I guess there's nothing I can't do or don't like.

I've always thought so, too.

But...

"Pfft. You know what I don't like about Mr. Geold."

I laughed invincibly.

Actually, I noticed something recently that I probably don't like Geold.

I'd rather say I discovered it than.

Even I thought at first that Geold was a prince with nothing completely indispensable and bad.

But I also realized that it was now that I had become an auntie in the neighborhood, spending time with the days and harvesting the fields.

"You don't like it, Mr. Geold."

"... what's that?

I have an evil grin on Alan, who sips and watches.

That was weeks ago.

Geold and Mary were also here that day, harvesting some recommended vegetables in the field.

That showed up when I was taking vegetables with Geold, Mary and Keith, who offered to help me.

I caught that trying to pass at my feet, wondering if I would be surprised if I went to Mary's.

Then when he saw it, Geold flew up close by.

Usually, I tried to start how calmly deposited he was so wolfish.

And I noticed. I wonder if Geold doesn't like this.

Smiling with an evil grin at Alan, I could see Geold coming looking for us who wasn't quite home.

This is a chance.

I know you might not like it, but I wasn't sure, so let's try it here.

That's how I grabbed what I'd been letting sneak in my pocket for a few days trying to use one day.

When I took Alan and hid in the shadow of the tree, I caught a glimpse of Geold from there.

And I threw 'it' in front of Geold, who walked over here.

"Wow!?

Suddenly, Geold raised his voice and flew off to "It", which appeared in front of him.

And that face is a lot wolfish to say that it just surprised me, and I can't even see the usual spare feeling.

"I'm pretty sure this is it."

I chuckled unexpectedly in the shade of a tree.

"Hey, wait a minute. What Geold doesn't like is in the end. And now, what the hell did you throw?

Alan asked me a lot, so I taught him well.

"That's a snake."

"Snake!?

"... but it's a crop, because if it's real, it can't move and leave it in your pocket"

"... no, I don't think snakes are something to put in your pocket before then... why did you throw it now"

"So I told you I'd teach you something you didn't like about Mr. Geold."

"What do you not like... snakes!?

"That's right. Though I thought it was thin, I was convinced by my earlier reaction. Master Geold doesn't like snakes."

I told him exaltedly. This was a great find.

It was at last that he found the weakness of that perfect prince.

By the way, the thrown toy snake is my handmade piece of paper created in circles.

I was prepared to explore Geold's weaknesses.

Still, it doesn't look like the real thing, but the effect still seemed to be on the brink.

"... the snake that I didn't like... no, it was terribly wolfish... that's not what I was talking about... but the snake... no, but you were wolfish..."

I'm just glad I didn't leap to the side of Alan, who bumps one by one.

Discover Geold's weaknesses. This must come in handy when you have to - when you have a ruin end.

That's how I dance to joy. I didn't realize the ever-blackening presence approaching from behind.

"Catalina. You seem in a very good mood, but what have you done?

Looking back, there stood a geold with a beautiful grin about it.

My thrown snake toy is firmly gripped in that hand.

My face is laughing but my eyes aren't laughing at all.

"... Di, Dear Geold"

"I wonder what the hell this is if you're worried because we're both not going back as we go after Alan"

That's what I said, and Geold put the snake toy he was holding in front of me.

"Um, that's..."

No words appeared to Geold's too powerful, and I was just wolfish.

Shit, I seem to have pissed Geold off more than I imagined when I tried to try it lightly.

And I'm sure I'm the one who threw the snake toy, even though I shouldn't have seen it.

Why is that?

"Catalina turned nine last month."

"... Yes"

"A nine-year-old Duke's wife wouldn't throw a toy like this at her fiancée."

"... ugh"

Geold's grin gradually darkens.

... This is too scary.

Maybe I'll be banished out of the country for the 'sin I threw at the snake toy prince' as it were.

"Speaking of which, Mrs. Kraes hasn't seen you today, but what's wrong?

"... Oh, you must be having tea with Keith"

Suddenly, confused by an unusual topic, I replied Awwww.

Then, Geold grinned again.

"Really? Then I must say hello. I'd like to talk to Mrs. Kraes about the tree climbing battle with Alan and the story of Catalina throwing toys and playing."

Oh my God!? Geold is willing to sell me to my mother for revenge for being thrown a toy snake!

That's right, belly black prince, he's horrible.

In this way, I desperately chase and beg for a belly-black prince who will go to her mother.

But they just return a nice smile and disgust.

Oh, I've pissed off someone I shouldn't have pissed off.

From behind my desperate back, I thought I heard a voice, and when I accidentally stopped following Geold and looked back, Alan totally forgot...

He was laughing like he couldn't stand it. That look with a belly and a laugh is just a blast.

Alan, I can't believe I laugh at people's misfortunes... well, I deserve it...

But I don't have time for Alan like that right now.

I chased Geold desperately.

But there's no way I can stop Geold from getting angry...

I was told by my mother about a tree climb with Alan that I had hidden and that I threw a snake toy at Geold...... I was to eat a sermon for hours.

But this time it wasn't all a disaster. There was also a great harvest.

We found Geold's weakness!

When you're about to be cut with a sword by Geold at the ruin end, you just have to throw the snake toy at him and escape to the gap where he's wolfing. Perfect.

I'd be a pretty good planner.

By the time you get to school, you have to complete a more precise snake toy and keep it sneaking in your pocket all the time!

This is how I found another great way to avoid the ruin end.

Alan after that, by the way, but somehow he stopped challenging the battle.

But why come to the Mansion even after you stop fighting......

Besides, at some point, I'm starting to talk to Geold normally.

I wonder why...

I cared, but now I don't have time to be distracted by that!

Because I need to create a more realistic snake toy to defeat Geold on the day he should come.
