Ore no Isekai Shimai ga Jichou Shinai!

Episode 1-2: The Unknown

"Brother Lion...... will you come to the Spiel house with Sophia?

Sophia nods her deep red eyes and looks up at me. The place where you grab my sleeve anxiously is the cutest.

That's why the option of saying no here is unlikely. I immediately replied, "Oh, sure."

"... really?

"Really. Let's make some time next time and let's all go to the Spiel's."

The moment I said that, Sophia swelled her cheeks in dissatisfaction. I guess it's because I said we were all together. But I pretend not to notice.

... No, what do you say? Sophia who looks anxious is good, but Sophia who persists is also very cute. So I want to see that, and I'm gonna make fun of you for sticking around.

Or so I thought, Sophia made her red eyes glow demonically.

"If it's a round-trip carriage, and you're gonna sit next to me all the time, I'll forgive you, okay?

"... Yep, what are you talking about?

"Brother Lion. Have you forgotten Sophia's favor?

"Oh, no, I remember..."

Sofia is now recovering to the full season level of the power of grace. So it's possible to read what they think just by being on the side.

But I no longer use that power without darkness. Except when I thought I really needed it, I never used my abilities anymore.

So I'm not supposed to be reading what I'm thinking...

"Sure, I usually try not to read my mind. Lion, it's all you can do to dictate your brother, right?

"What..."

I mean, is that you? Did they even read all my thoughts earlier?

"Yeah, yeah, that's what you say."

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!?

That means - no, you can't think about it! Get away from Sofia first. If you're contactless, you can't even read deep psychology!

"Yes, but... if it's your brother Lion's sexuality, you don't have to hide it all now, do you? For example, recently with your sister Alice..."

Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, wait! You can't do that! I'll do anything, so stop reading my mind!

"Oh, I'll do anything now..."

"I don't think! No, I'm sorry. I thought, but I didn't say it!

"Huh? Then use the grace on your sister Alice, the chase experience or something...... no?

"You've decided no!?

Benefits of Sofia reading minds. Its full use makes it possible to follow the other person's experience in an instant - that is, even read it as if he had experienced it.

It's too dangerous to use that on Alice or something. Mainly in the targeted sense that thin books get thicker.

... Koho.

"And anyway, not because it's too early for Sofia"

"Mmmm... then when should I be?

"Huh? Yeah... but a little later...?

I decided to accept not only Alice, but Sophia and Claire as well.

But it wasn't just a situation. Nobody else, Sophia and Claire. Hey, that's why I accepted. If I were someone else, I would never have made this choice.

So even if you're going out with Sophia or Claire someday, I don't like to say it's disintegrating. I want to look at the fold one day, make a proper confession and hang out.

If I thought that way, Sophia would smile at me meaningfully. Didn't you stop reading your mind...

Together, it was decided to go to the Spiel family for a visit to Mr. Carlos' grave and an interview with Mr. Elise.

So when I broke up with Sophia to adjust who I was taking, I visited Claire's office.

"Claire, hey. It's Lion, can I come in?

"My brother? Of course you can come in."

"... really? Why don't you get dressed?

I'm in the middle of getting dressed, but you can come in. I ask, remembering the past.

"It's okay, 'cause you're not dressed. Come on in."

"Really? Do you believe me? If you open the door and you're in underwear or something, you're gonna get mad at me, right?

Open the dreaded door. That's how I look around the room - across the system desk. There was Claire hey greeting me half-eyed, fingering her platinum blonde hair.

"... what the hell do you think of me?

"No, no, you've been dressed before."

"I told you I was getting dressed, right? In the first place, why do I have to change in the office?

I got stunned. You're right if you ask me... but what still seems suspicious is why?

"So, what can I do for you? How far have you been with Alice?

"Oh, I need to talk to you. What is Alice... because she doesn't say?

"Huh, I almost couldn't tell you."

"- Gu."

Damn, he's as tough as ever.... That's not the problem with saying that. I was confessed to Claire before, and now I've put my reply on hold for you to wait.

And yet I can't help but say I'm pissed off that I'm still left alone.

"Claire, hey, you know..."

"Sorry, I was just kidding"

The words I spun ready were blocked by some serious line from Claire Hey.

"... Claire. Hey?

"My brother is taking a good look at me. That's why it doesn't include being close to Alice. I was just kidding."

"Really?

"That's right. So stop looking like that. In the first place, am I the one who gave you Alice, who was a slave at the time?

"... it was"

Claire, I don't know if hey's words are real or if you're noticing me. But I don't think there's any point in me saying anything here.

I believe what Claire said, and now I've decided not to touch on that topic.

"So what did your brother come here to do?

"Oh yeah. Sophia wants to see Elise."

"... Sophia did?

"He wants to know what he thinks. That's why I'm here to talk to you about when it's a good idea to go to the Spiel family."

"... brother, are you serious?

Claire Hey shakes her eyes like a jade anxiously. I don't even have to think about why. Like me, you must be worried about Sophia.

"Claire, I can somehow imagine what you're thinking."

"Then why not? If you know Sophia was loved, but it's more likely she wasn't, right?

"I guess so. But maybe not. And even if it did, I thought it might be good."

"... what do you mean?

I guess I can't read the intent, even if I believe I'm not supposed to do anything for Sophia. Claire, hey, he looked surprised.

"Me too. I wonder what my father thought of me. I wonder if you cared about me, or if you were annoyed."

"I don't think you hated me, do you?

"-But you don't know if you thought it was important, do you?

"... right. I don't care, but it's something I can't confirm."

"Yeah. That's what I thought. He said it's the hardest part of not knowing."

If you hated me, you should give up. If it was important to you, you just have to work to the point of that thought. But I don't know.

Should I thank you or resent you? I don't even know if you'd be happy or neglected to say you'd be happy until your father's minute.

That's what I thought was the hardest part.

"I can't know anymore, but Sophia can. Of course I'm not trying to force you, but if Sophia wanted to know, she wanted to help."

"... ok. If my brother thinks that much, I won't say anything anymore. Let Sophia meet Elise."
