The dinner party passed softly and we decided to move to a separate room.

A music room in the royal palace. The back of the room is equipped with a grand piano and there is also a stage.

A painting featuring the famous opera was painted large on one side of the back wall.

Soundproofing facilities are also complete. Instruments and other instruments are stored next door to this room, and during normal times the President of the Orchestra of the Court is entrusted with the management of the Orchestra of the Court.

A seat for the number of people was already available in front of the stage, waiting now for the singer's visit to be late.

"Me and Liddy are here"

The seats presented by Fried are the best seats in the center of the stage.

The king and his wife naturally showed their seats and I looked up to Fried.

"Here?"

"Yes, because this event was demanded by the singer in the name of a reward from his father. If you want me and Liddy to hear the song, it's your father's idea to say we should sit in the best seats."

"Oh, yeah."

If the king wants me to, I have no right to say no.

I was made to sit in an awkward and privileged seat, with a golden wooden bench for two hung with an embroidered velvet cover for great seating.

When they all sat down, snacks and drinks were brought to the side table.

My chest squeaks when I wonder if I can finally face the singer in the example.

I wonder what the hell he's like. He's a reincarnator, so he would normally look like a person in this world, like me, but if you talk to him, he could think differently, etc.

I hadn't seen a Japanese in a long time, and I was staring at the entrance to the room with anticipation as to what people would come.

Fried sitting next to me like that stares bitterly at me.

"Liddy, I'm so excited"

"Yeah, 'cause I'm looking forward to it"

"I'm like a child.... cute though. Don't want to eat it."

I reached out and was gripped. When I can stare at you with hot eyes, I'm embarrassed and I get blood on my head.

"Ba, silly. What are you talking about here?"

I whined small in the light, but Fried ran out of words without changing his attitude at all.

"It doesn't matter where it is. That's what I'd say anywhere if I thought Liddy was cute, right? Because I love you."

"... so, Soudesca"

Somebody please help me. I'm glad, but hey, no, there's someone here who's pretty embarrassed.

Fried whispered in his ear as he nagged.

"Redness and cuteness. We'll love each other all night."

"Silly... let me sleep properly"

I don't mind doing so, but I don't like the lack of sleep.

Even though it was worth the effort and I had succeeded in limiting the number of times, I feel it has gradually increased again lately. It's because I'm too sweet, but I don't like sleeping before dawn or anything.

"'Cause Liddy's cute, I can't help it."

"... at least by the time the day changes, it's over"

"It's hard, but I'll do it right."

"Already..."

"Hehe... Still, I love Liddy for not telling me I won't do it anymore"

"Hey......!

When I pressed my lips against my ear all the time, Fried immediately went away.

I stared, but it doesn't work at all.

Looks like he's in a good mood with a smile.

I gave up pursuing when I realized I was just going to please you no matter what else you said.

Take the glass that is placed separately next to the tea. These contents are my favorite lemon water these days.

Knowing that I like it, they bothered to prepare it for me.

Relieved by the neat taste, the Kingsguard opened the door and found that one young man had entered the music room on a grand walk.

I looked up at him finally - and that's where I saw him.

――――

I wasn't even very surprised.

I tremble with my hands still holding the glass.

All I could do was keep an eye out and stare at him.

"Liddy? What's up, Liddy?"

I can't even respond to Fried's voice.

There was nothing else than flattery.

What came in was an adult man who looked like he was in his late twenties.

Tall...... wearing a single suit with three black buttons.

Dark hair with black framed glasses.

Not many people know that their eyes look black but are actually brown.

The delicate face of the nostrils remains memorable.

No, for some years older than the last time I saw it, I started to get a stoic hue and it looked like I was getting a lot more masculine than before.

Staring at him without saying much, after letting go of his eyebrow root a little, he slipped his gaze off when he rinsed.

Take the stage and give a token of your beauty.

"Nice to meet you. Her Royal Highness Prince Wang, Your Highness. My name is Theon and I am a traveling singer. I thank both Your Majesty deeply for fulfilling my selfishness to present you both with a song today."

- Scion.

As soon as I heard the name, I was shocked like I had been hit in the head with a blunt instrument.

I feel like I've been poked at something I didn't want to believe, staring at him out of sight.

If I did, at the end of that date, I remembered seeing him.

Though I thought it was someone else's pseudo then and decided to assume it was my fault.

If you look at the real thing nearby this way, I don't think it's someone else.

Even the voice remains a memory of the time.

A slightly lower, listenable, quiet voice.

I remember this voice.

After all, is it him?

He's a little older than I know him, but is it still him?

Scion......

Seven Fans (Nano Ogi) Ziyuan (Shio)... Senior.

The first person I was dating in my previous life. Same college seniors.

Someone who spent a year and a half together.

And yet, someone who just never told me he liked me.

In the end, to the end, someone who didn't love me.

I couldn't stand it enough to say goodbye to myself, but still definitely...... who I loved the most in those days.
