Shinario-dōri ni Taijō Shita no ni, Imasara Nan no Goyōdesu ka?

"... what"

Mr. Linaria whines low.

"I'm not kidding!

Mr. Linaria's right hand is shaken up loudly, and he's beaten! I was ready.

I close my eyes and wait for that moment, but that moment doesn't quite come.

When I opened my eyes, Leo held Linaria's arm tight.

But Mr. Linaria's eyes are staring at me with a light that's unusual to her.

To be honest, I'm scared. But I instinctively realized I shouldn't run away here.

Just spit on her, and I dare, stare her closely in the eye. Yes, because I don't want to run anymore.

"…… If you threaten the lives of the people in town with malice, I will not forgive you."

"What can you do?"

"This is still the Duke's Lady, so most anything you decide to be prepared for. I hate you, but I can't help it... I don't even hate using power."

Giri, and I hear teeth biting from her mouth.

"I'm not kidding, you were like a dead person, why......!

At Mr. Linaria's feet, the pot, the pot and the tear Shizuku fell. The Shizukuishi somehow feels overlapping with herself, who has popped out of the mansion without knowing what to do, and naturally, the words leak.

"Sure, I was dead when you were in school. My family and the people around me couldn't believe any of them... because they thought that one day they would just dump me."

"What are you talking about? That can't be happening, can you, Duke's Lady? Aren't you out of your mind?

"Right, but I really thought so. So when His Highness and Lady Galua surrounded me and disputed me, I thought, 'I knew it'. I couldn't believe anything, so I ran away from the mansion that night and wandered all the way down town."

"……… You did something stupid."

"Yes, I don't know why myself. At that time, it was that dame who helped me to work in the lodging. Master Galua knows, right?

You were suddenly surprised by the name, after Mr. Garua freaked out, he snorts.

"It was a lot of sweet people downtown who talked to me every day, taught me my job and spent six months laughing at me again because of human distrust and couldn't keep me busy laughing or talking"

……

Mr. Linaria won't even reply to me anymore.

But I couldn't stop myself from saying it either. There must have been some overflowing thoughts in me.
