Until now, Jill has worked hard. That's what I can say just because I can see it, so I think Jill, who would have built up his efforts in places I don't know, has inspired me to practice beyond my imagination.

Jill has even deepened his magic, built drills, and refined himself every day. I was kind of embarrassed to hear that it was to get me... but the joy was stronger. That's all Jill wanted me to do.

... Now I'm a little scared to imagine when I didn't think of Jill, but as it turns out, I'm choosing Jill and I've decided to walk with Jill, so be it.

Jill has done everything she can to increase her strength. To get over the high wall.

I mean, it's inevitable to challenge a wall that stands.

"Dear Liz,"

Jill's voice, who came to call me waiting in the room, is the same kind thing as usual. Jill noticed and was bitterly laughed at when I was a little nervous and waiting with my spine stretched out onto the couch and sitting back solidified.

"What will Liz do if she gets nervous?"

"I've decided to be nervous. Don't you feel nervous about Jill?"

"Nervous, rather than exalted, are you?

That's a boulder Jill, or someone who doesn't quit exercising his powers if he needs to keep a soft, contentious, disgusting face, right? Jill's own policy is to protect me thoroughly, but it's not like he's never going to make an offense. Because I am a relentless person when I do it.

This time, that ruthless side doesn't matter, it seems purely... motivated.

"Because it's with you, there's no reason not to try, is there?

Jill, who came to my side, smiles lusciously and gives me her hand. If you overlap your hands without hesitation, you will be pulled and stood up, and you will remain in Jill's arms with that momentum.

Jill beats faster than usual when his hands are turned around his back and snuggled together perfectly. If I looked up, I met Jill's loving looking eyes. And then you realize that your body is just a little bit tense.

"... Jill, you're actually a little nervous"

"Was it broken? You're not dressed for this."

"Jill doesn't have to dress up. She always looks good, doesn't she?

"Men have a crush, too."

It's hard, and if you leak, "You want to make yourself look good in front of whoever you like, right?" And I was bitterly laughed at, so I just had to snort that right. Me too, I want Jill to think she's cute or pretty, and I want her to admit she's alone. It must be a similar emotion to that.

I'm not going to deny it, so all I can do is turn my hand around Jill's back and hug him tight and relieve Jill of tension. I kind of saw Jill's intentions and the tension over here went somewhere.

"... from me, I can only support you. All I can do is give Jill hope.... so I believe Jill. I believe in Jill."

"Dear Liz..."

"Will you make me your wife?

If you lift your face up with a hug and smile like a prank, Jill blinks a little surprised, then loosens her cheeks softly as her hardness unwinds.

I gently leaned my lips against my ear and whispered "of course," so it was warm, and I moved a little and now I held them tight and my lips pressed against my cheeks.

That's all I'm sorry about, Jill, and the next time I lay my lips on a light layer, I laugh happily. Jill with a full expression, no more strong tension.

"Dear Liz. … Shall we go?"

"Yes."

We are ready for each other. So you have to go show that.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm going to stop hugging Jill, lay my hands on him instead, and head to my father's room again. To keep up with our intentions.

"Father."

If you visited your father in the office, you would have missed your second visit to the boulder, and you looked at us and narrowed your eyes slightly and sighed. But it's not a refusal to look, it's a glimpse somewhere. And Jill, too, is staring at her father with a quiet expression.

One sigh and once I lay my eyes down, father. My father, slowly coming this way, was in sharper and more serious air than any father I knew. My usual floating father was gone.

"... you put on a bullshit with His Highness."

"Yes."

Even though I know the air I've strained is against Jill, my body is going to strain to me. Still, if you stare at your father and say it straight, Jill goes on to get out in front of me, too.

Not as a squire, but as one man. As the intimidation grew, Jill was confronted with her father with an attitude of frivolity.

"Let me say it again. Give me Master Liz."

"... naturally, you're here to show your readiness, aren't you?

"Yes."

My father was silent for a while to Jill, who said it without ever turning a blind eye. Then, just frown a little and exhale deeply.

"... I've been silent on your feelings for years, but there's nothing I'd rather not admit right now.... If you can beat me, I'll do it. Show me your readiness."

"Yes.... Verf-Adelchan. I'll sign you up for a duel."

Look straight at your father and throw the white gloves he was wearing at his feet. Momentum wasn't all that much, but my father would know what that meant.

This was decided by me and Jill. Even if they are hostile, they will not bend their will, and in order to penetrate them, their father will use a duel of absolute obedience for the terms of the winner.

Looking at the white gloves that fell at his feet, Father does not yet try to pick them up, but returns his gaze to us again.

"Is it still coming this way"

"It's as simple as taking them away, but it doesn't make sense unless you admit it."

The two opposed are not going to give in, etc., but are facing each other because they have something they can't bend.

Strongly willing to never lose, Jill sent a slightly soothing gaze to his father to hold his own chest.

"I am grateful to you. That you forgive me and give me a place that should have been disposed of. That you treated me like a family. That you found me worthwhile. … I can't thank you enough"

What is spoken in a clear voice is how you feel about your father. The result is hostility, but Jill admires his father. Because, as Jill says, we've spent a long time together and we've seen ourselves as a family, a father.

My father has also seen Jill like a big son... and I'm sure Jill has noticed.

"I respect you. … which is why I want you to acknowledge me"

To Jill, who stated his thoughts without falsehood, his father pressed silence...... and eventually sighed. That was not accompanied by shuddering, but rather by Ning Ro... accepting Jill's true intentions and seemingly swallowing them.

The father's face, which held his forehead quietly, was softer than earlier.

"... it's true that history repeats itself. You idiot."

Words, too, are a little soft. Words are the mess, but there was serenity on the ends of my voice.

Father, I don't praise you directly in front of me or my position... but I think Father admits very much about Jill. That's why I'm giving you the opportunity, not poking around with me.

"If you win, I'll get Liz, if I win, I'll get back out.... wouldn't it be a bad idea to give up?

"Yeah. If I lose, I'll get it back out. Until you admit it. … if you lose, but"

"Good courage for the head of the Magic Academy."

In the wake of provocative words, his father smiles belligerently when he lifts the edge of his mouth with pleasure. There was a father who stood idly by, as a father and as a man.

Father slowly bends over and picks up his first white gloves there. Pick up the thrown gloves and you will have accepted the duel, which will be a duel with an impartial witness on the spot. Father would take Jill's readiness without hesitation, that would be the case.

"Duel, let's take it.... Come on, let it go beyond me. Show me what you're ready for."

Both Jill and I quietly agreed to the words of our father, who smiled invincibly.
