"Ma'am! You look great"
Inside the mirror is my figure in a Torsois School of Magic uniform.
Sarah moistened her eyes like she was impressed and muttered, "I even dreamed about you..."
White shirt, a short jacket of the same colour length on a piece down to the blue knee, and shoes in long braided boots.
And on the chest is a red ribbon representing the second grade.
Yes, I was treated as an integration from sophomore year.
I haven't been through freshman year, so I could start all over again in a year.
However, the contents of the first year were taught by the tutor, and I can't tell anyone, but sometimes I took a first year class, which was a special measure because I was able to pass the integration exam easily.
Nevertheless.
I miss this uniform so much.
I never thought I'd go through it again like this now when I was sleeping through it before.
I can also remember at this moment.
School buildings, canteens, rooftop gardens, libraries…….
I used to walk with friends everywhere I went back then.
The words I could hang from them sounded good to me and I believed all the words I was told without any doubt.
As a result, I was disengaged by His Highness and killed on my way to the monastery.
Of course there was a problem with me.
But now I know.
Can a friendship wishing for ruin be called a genuine friendship?
No, that's not it. It's not a friend or anything.
"Lady Rachel, Your Highness and that child were with you again."
"The neighbor of His Highness says it's Lady Rachel's place…… like that, I don't know.
… but is that rumor true?
"Lady Rachel, shouldn't you let the powerless know just by being that Virgin?
"Yeah, I am! Lady Rachel, you should go tell her right now. '
Now that I think about it, how was the relationship between His Highness and the Virgin actually? I don't even know if I think about it.
Was it true that we had romantic feelings for each other?
Or...
Maybe we were just really discussing this country.
I think I've been watching His Highness lately.
I did see His Highness and the Virgin, and Cyril and the others, together several times at that time.
But would His Highness, who sees the Virgin, have had a sweet, gentle grin that made her cheeks red in that moment?
Couldn't it have been a more clerical gaze?
… No, I can't remember.
Maybe that's what my hope makes you think it would be good if it were.
All I've seen lately is the look on His Highness's face for the first time.
That's why I feel different from somewhere before, even if I'm smiling as well.
But the art of knowing the relationship between His Highness and the Virgin is not with me now.
But there's something for sure.
I thought we were friends. About them.
Sure, they neglected me.
And I wanted to throw him out of his position as Your Highness's fiancée, that is.
I guess he was after my failure somewhere.
I'm sure they were laughing at me for falling for their thoughts.
That's why I'm not going to be particularly close to them this time.
I knew what they thought they were friends, and
Because the back face I saw before is still burned in the back of my brain.
And if possible.
A friend in the true sense of the word, the person you can call.
Like His Highness and Theodore, for example.
A relationship where we trust each other, even though we slap each other lightly like that.
If only I could have such a friend...
When I raised my face, which was bowed down, I was anxiously lowering my brow in the mirror.
… No.
Because I change.
Don't let such anxiety crush you.
Forced to raise the corner of his mouth and laugh.
Then the mirror himself grinned nicely.
All right, that's it.
Come on, let's go. To the school.
The view from Gadagoto and the rocking carriage is very familiar.
Because it's the last school I went to for three years.
Still, I was wrapped up in nervousness like I was going through for the first time.
My previous memories gradually come back as I approach the school.
I hold my trembling hand and take deep breaths over and over again.
It's okay, it's okay.
I'm sure it won't be like it was before.
Tell yourself over and over again.
But there is strength in his shoulders, and his face is tense. I'm sure if I looked in the mirror right now, I'd look scared.
The carriage slowly slowed down, and stopped.
At the same time my nervousness peaks.
Finally, we're here.
Take another big, deep breath.
The carriage door opens slowly.
When I tried to get off with my hand, I opened my eyes in an incredible way when I moved my sight to the side.
"Your Highness!"
"Hey, Rachel. Good morning."
What a royal highness it was who offered me his hand.
Her Royal Highness smiles sweetly, "Here, come down," and gently calls out to me.
As I responded to that voice, I exhaled relieved and regained my natural grin.
Strength of the body melts like a lie, and lightness returns to the feet that step out.
"Um, thank you for taking the time"
"No, it's my first time at school with an important fiancée."
"But I kept you waiting..."
"Don't worry about it. I was just waiting on my own."
I lowered my gaze to my apologies for keeping His Highness waiting. But to me His Highness narrowed his eyes even more.
"... but I've never had such a jump in my chest when I waited."
"Huh?"
"I can go to school with Rachel today. You see him every day, don't you? I can't be happier."
… right.
I go to school every day, so maybe I'll get a pretty good chance to see you, even though the school year is different.
Last time I went to the same school, I hardly had a chance to see him.
That's why I didn't even think about it.
But from the mouth of His Royal Highness now, Your Highness may be thinking of seeing me frequently.
I have His Royal Highness.
Yes, I have His Highness in the same school.
My anxiety-filled mind just now lightens up a bit.
I can feel His Highness on my side. I felt like that was all I could do.
"Well, so am I. I'm glad."
It was a small grunt to the point of being critical to His Highness next door.
Still, Your Highness seemed to hear me. After opening his eyes wide, he was turned to a haunting grin.
And the students around me stopped and watched us like that.
But full of myself, I walk straight to the school building with His Highness without realizing the attention.
There is also a mix of female students in the crowd who were called the Virgin in the last raw. And she also stared at this one.
"Uh, I knew it! The villain warrant lady is not a bug. I thought you were crazy."
And the voice emanating from her never reached my ear.
