From sewer exploration, one day after a while.

I was summoned from Saisha to the dining room.

"Ah, there he is. Mr. Storland."

As she walked over speaking, Saisha turned her body to this side and smiled calmly.

"Mr. Lamplog. Thank you for taking the time out today."

"Fine. So, what? For."

"That's... I was actually going to carry it this far, but it seems a little difficult..."

Said Saisha with a troubled face.

Carry......?

"I'm sorry, could you come to the girls' dorm? I've already spoken to the dorm manager."

"Fine..."

I nodded with my inner neck to Saisha, who said I was sorry.

When Saisha smiles, she stands ahead and walks out.

"Good. Then let's go."

So we both walk down the school road.

"Lamplog, you came to the girls' dorm several times before the summer."

"Oh, to teach Mabel to study. To the others, it could have been annoying..."

"That's not true."

Saisha laughs when she dulls.

"The truth is, we all want to talk to you, Lamplog."

"Uh... Really? I thought it was rather avoided. There was a lot going on at first."

"Yeah...... when you did just get into school, you had a lot going on. All aristocratic children like rumors, and they want to make sequences out of differences between people with family patterns and interactions. Lamplog, you were particularly conspicuous. I'm sure they didn't know how to deal with you."

"Was I prominent? I guess...... I think someone was more prominent than me."

Amu or something.

Besides, Efa would have been a lot more rare than I am, given her grades and identity.

But Saisha laughs and shakes her head.

"That's true, but not... Lamplog, because you kind of had an atmosphere"

"Atmosphere?"

"Somehow it's hard to get close"

"Uh..."

Speaking of which, even in previous life, you pretended that people who weren't close to you didn't know what they were thinking.

"Now, that's not true at all. Before the summer, when Lamplog came to the girls' dorm, a lot of kids would soften up."

"Oh well..."

Don't be confused about that, too.

"But I don't think I've done anything to change my mind."

Instead, I feel like I was just about to be distanced from defeating my boss in a dungeon or winning an imperial martial arts tournament.

But Saisha shook her head.

"That's not true. Lamplog, I think we've all noticed that you're a kind and good person already. Besides, I thought we were getting along by calling out to the likes of people who were in the plug."

"Huh? I was blocking...?

"I'm talking about Amu and Mabel."

Says Saisha, smiling.

"At first I wondered if we were both scared people. Because at first they both seemed like they were refusing to get along with someone. But... last month, when I was crying, you both seriously consulted me... I'm sure that's also because I was close to you, Lamplog. I think Mabel, in particular, has changed a lot since she returned from the capital."

……

"It's brighter, and we're all starting to talk from ourselves. Maybe stopping dyeing your hair also triggered something......? But that gray hair looks better on Mr. Mabel's blue eyes, doesn't it? It's unusual and beautiful."

"Mmm... right"

Mabel's hair, which no longer needed to be dyed, was now completely out of color and back to its original gray color.

It's really the exact same color as Kyle's hair, which is my brother.

"... I was wondering if you could tell Mabel directly. 'Cause I'm probably gonna love it."

"Yeah, I will, then."

Saisha laughed and nodded.

As she loses so much and the girls' dorm approaches, Saisha opens her mouth with a slight hesitation.

"Um, Mr. Lamplog. I'd like to ask you something you don't know..."

"Hmm? What?

"Lamplog, do you... do you have a girlfriend?

"Huh!? Yes, I'm not here."

"What about forgiveness...?

"I'm not here... as you know, I wasn't born very good"

"Efa and I are actually in deep company..."

"I won't."

"So who's Amu or Mabel..."

"He's just a friend."

"Was it............... good"

And he said so small, and Saisha lowered her face.

On the side of it...... I get pinned.

No way this... is that what this is about, huh?

... What shall I do?

Indeed, Saisha is beautiful and calm. but that's not the problem. Most importantly, she has a fiancée.

I was sometimes missed by a woman who helped me in my previous life, and some of them were a little hard to say but wives.

It's just that it's more or less a temporary distraction, and I've hardly been held back when I actually left.

But of course...... there is no place to leave and go inside the school.

I'll be face-to-face with the denial all the way ahead.

Duh, how do I say no...

"Oh, you know, Mr. Storland..."

"What is it? Let's go."

Saisha looks back strangely at me for being late. [M]

In the end, I reached the girls' dorm with nothing to say.

For the first time in months, the women's dorm lounge had not been particularly different. Spacious, clean, well captured and bright.

We didn't see any other students during the day.

"Oh, that's it. Mr. Lamplog."

And, with that said, Saisha suddenly walked over to the wall quickly.

There was something up there, like a board I wanted to flatten.

The height is about floor to chest, and the width is just about the size of a child spreading his hands.

Cloth is covered from above.

Saisha looks back at me and says with a smile.

"Actually, Lamplog, I wanted to show you something."

"Mi, did I show you?

"Yes, this is it"

Saying so, Saisha took away the cloth.

Something like that board was a portrait.

On a dark green background, a little blonde girl is depicted in a structure sitting in a chair.

I ask Saisha after a long silence.

"Uh... what's this?

"What do you think?

I answer Cysha with confusion, laughing and asking her vague questions.

"I don't know... I think she's cute"

Somewhere, similar to Saisha......

"Isn't that right? This is my sister."

"Oh, by reason..."

"What do you say?

"Nah... what?

"Lamplog, to your fiancée."

".................. ha??

Saisha starts explaining with a smile on my face as I raise my voice like a shriek.

"My sister is so pathetic about this, but fortunately, I haven't decided on a bride yet. As a matter of fact, my sister secretly asked me to come to school and find her a wonderful son-in-law. I was actually going to even look for graduation criticals...... this time, I was still convinced that you were the only one in Ramprog! That's why I quickly sent this portrait to school, which I was more prepared for! I'd love to see you, Lamplog."

……

"Lamplog, I understand your concern. But it's okay! It is normal for portraits like this to be painted more visibly than in person to some extent, because my sister really stays like this! You will definitely be beautiful in the future! My sister, I assure you! Oh, but it doesn't start with you not actually seeing him. Then even for spring break..."

"Oh, you know, Mr. Storland"

I speak terribly to Saisha, who starts to run wild with fever.

"I know my sister matters, but look... Engagement is a matter between houses, so take it personally..."

"Don't worry about that one either! Lamplog, your house is the Earl's, and my house and my family are equal. It's famous, but thanks to being away from the Imperial Council, political troubles don't happen either. I'm sure your father won't have the ambition to have both daughters daughter-in-law in the upper house, either. No, I will!

"But I was born..."

"It's okay! Because to that extent, my sister doesn't care!

I ask Saisha, with a full grin, under pressure.

"Chi, by the way... how old is your sister?

"I'm six this year!

……

"What do you think, Mr. Lamplog? Would you be my brother-in-law?

I exhaled long and loud.

Then he says as he turns his heel back.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, but I need you to hit something else!

"What!? Mr. Lamplog!?

Ignoring the voice of Saisha hitting me on the back, I escaped from the girls' dorm.

Yuki faces from above her head as she runs.

"Ugh, it won't be any different for Seika, such as the age of a man's child."

"You don't have six. Six. Ha! I still have a lot to do, but I can't get engaged."

Yuki says with a delightful laugh.

"Seika is still in her life, but she's still early for marriage."

"You're going down."

and.

Such an exchange between Yuki and me lasted until I fled back to the men's dorm.
