The next day after the dawn of the One Year War.

This day is a holiday, and I was thinking about resting slowly after a long absence ...

Suddenly, my schedule was over, so I was rushing to an ice cream shop in the center of Arest.

"Well, it should be around here ..."

If you look around with a shop brochure in one hand,

"Allen-kun! Here and here!"

From behind, I heard the voice of the chairman, who travels well from afar.

Looking back-there was a chairman bouncing around in pretty plain clothes.

"--Sorry, did you wait?"

"No, I'm fine because I'm just here"

The chairman smiled gently and stared at my whole body.

"... Allen-kun's plain clothes are fresh. Yeah, I think it's very good."

There was hope from the chairman, and I had worn sleeves in plain clothes after a long absence.

A simple outfit with a black haori on the top, a white shirt and a dark blue trouser on the bottom.

All of these were given by Paula on his birthday.

"Thank you.-The chairman is well suited."

The top is a loose white blouse.

Below is a long skirt with a deep slit.

One point on the chest was a red pendant.

This cool and elegant outfit looks great on the chairman.

"Hello, thank you."

After a brief greeting,

"Nevertheless, yesterday's today ... a very steep story."

I immediately heard what I was concerned about.

Yesterday.

Immediately after receiving the One Year War trophy and heading to Leah and Rose's health room-I received a letter from the chairman.

The content is very simple.

"Thank you for helping me with the student council just before. Meet at the clock tower on Oriana Street at 12 noon tomorrow. Shi-Arcstria

However, three conditions were written below it.

Come to Leah and Rose in secret and come alone.

Come in plain clothes, not uniform.

Don't bring a sword because it stands out.

And the pretty envelope with the letter contained a pamphlet for the destination ice cream shop.

"Huh, you say 'female heart and the autumn sky'?"

"……Is that so"

I think the meaning is completely different ...

Well, it's normal that the chairman is sudden.

If you're surprised at this, you won't be here.

Then

"Hey Hey. Leah and Rose aren't barre, right?"

Chairman muttered in a small voice while looking around with Kyoro Kyoro.

"Well, that's fine."

I just told Peria a word, "I'm going out a bit" and I have no plans to train with Rose today.

"But why keep it secret? I don't think it's necessary to hide it separately ...?"

When I ask frank questions,

"It's already insensitive ..."

The chairman sighed greatly while shaking his head.

"Well, it's better than that. I'll take a rest today! Let's play around all day!"

"Well, one day ...? I just talk about eating ice--"

"--Well, let's go!"

Speaking of that, the chairman walked with pride.

"Oh, wait a minute, Chairman!"

Then she followed her and arrived at her destination, an ice cream shop.

It looks like a small castle, and many women have already made long lines.

"Sure, a great number of people ..."

"Hey, it's a very popular restaurant recently opened?"

Line up at the end of the line and wait for the order while watching the menu handed to the clerk.

"Hmm ... I'm still ... Summer limited summer orange ice cream. Have you decided Allen-kun?"

"Yes ... I'm going to make vanilla ice cream."

After the order was decided, the two of us had a chat.

The chairman was good at speaking and listening-so the waiting time passed quickly, and he realized he was at the top of the line.

"I'm sorry. I'd like a regular vanilla and a summer orange."

"Thank you! Please wait a moment!"

The cheerful clerk moved with a flurry, and was immediately handed a spherical ice cream in a cutely designed cup.

After that, move to the table for two people provided in the store and calm down each other.

Then

"Hey Hey, Allen-kun. Isn't it hard to eat with your hands? Will your sister do" ah "?"

Chairman glanced at his thick bandaged right hand and smiled like a small devil.

"No, you can't use your right hand, but you can eat with your left hand."

I held a small spoon in my left hand and tried to eat the ice in the cup smoothly.

"Mmm, she's not cute ..."

"Oh, oh ..." -Hey chairman, if you don't eat early, the ice cream will melt, right? "

Then, after they had a delicious ice cream, they decided to go around a fashionable clothing store.

"--Welcome!"

The young clerk, dressed in modern and stylish clothes, greeted us with a smile and a smile.

"Well, how are you ..."

And when I was lightly bowing,

――Hey Allen, here and here!

The chairman went steadily into the store as he hummed.

"Hmmm .... It's pretty cute ...."

Chairman looked at the displayed clothing with serious eyes.

Then I checked what I was interested in according to my body and saw them in the shop.

"―― Do you know Allen-kun? Is the trendy color this year green?"

"Hey, is that so. I heard it for the first time."

I occasionally had such a short conversation, and I followed the chairman, who was busy moving.

During that time, I was sobering with a very restless feeling.

(Somehow ... oh, I'm not restless ......)

Everyone looking right or left looks shining.

Your hairstyle and clothes are perfectly determined, and it feels like you've come somewhere out of place.

(To get used to the city ... It seems it will take more time ...)

Goza Village has more livestock than humans-I grew up in the countryside, but it's difficult for me to get used to the city.

After that, when it has passed enough,

"-Hey, Allen-kun. This polka dot dress and this young leaf one piece ... do you think is better?"

The chairman leaned his neck with two lovely dresses in his hand.

"..."

The moment you heard that question, a terrible shock ran through your whole body.

(I thought it was kind of like a city legend, but it's really real ...)

Hell's two-choice problem, when you go shopping with a woman.

If you give a wrong answer-the woman is in a bad mood and she sees hell that day. I've heard ...

(But there's no problem ...! The winning strategy in such a case has already been given by Paula-san!)

In my mind, the conversation with Paula exchanged a few years ago has revived.

"--Are you Allen? Girls, including me, are creatures who want" agreement. "

"Agree, are you ...?"

"Ah, yeah. For example ... suppose a girl asks," Which is this better? ". In such a case, the answer is already out of the way.

"Ha, huh ..."

"That means-what you are asking for is consent, not your opinion."

"... It's a difficult story. How do I find the answer?"

"It's that easy. You can see it in one shot from the other person's eyes!

"See your eyes ..."

"Girls are pure and obedient. What I like is something I'll follow quickly."

"Well, I see ..."

"Well, it's ridiculous to understand a delicate woman's heart to a rough man ... It's important to have a posture to approach ..."

Mr. Paula said, and she spiked the pig's neck with a huge butcher knife.

(... I miss you)

The pork stewed rice bowl that I ate that day was really delicious ...

(That isn't the case ... I'm focusing on the problem at hand right now ...)

I turned my thoughts that were about to derail a little bit back into my eyes-while pretending to compare the two kinds of dresses, I saw the chairman's eyes casually.

I noticed that her gaze tended to shift to Wakaba's dress.

(… Speaking of which, did you say that the trendy color this year was green?)

If you link these two to the chairman's gaze-this year's trendy colors-the answer will naturally become one ...

"I think ... I prefer a young-leaf dress ..."

I told you clearly.

I can't go back anymore.

Sweat floats slowly in the palm of your hand, and your heart beats faster due to tension.

(…… How are the results !?)

If you swallow your saliva

"-Really! I'm glad, I thought so too! I'll do it here!"

Chairman smiled like a large flower blooming and ran to the cashier with a young leaf dress.

(Wow ... it was the hardest part today, but I managed to get over it ...)

I thanked Paula in my heart and exhaled.

Then I was taken by the chairman and walked around various shops.

(Food store, general store, jewelry store, handicraft store .... I wonder if you saw a curio dealer ...)

A store that I would never drop by, a product I never saw-today I touched a lot of unknowns and it was exciting and very fun.

And the chairman was always laughing happily, and it can be said that today was a good day.

"Oh ... The sun will soon die."

"Well, that's right."

The time is already seven o'clock at night.

I and the chairman were walking side by side on Oriana Street.

"..."

"..."

A little silence falls between them, and they walk for a while without saying each other.

(… Is it really tired?)

Should I shake the conversation?

Or should we walk silently?

When thinking about what to do,

"... Hey, Allen-kun"

The chairman with a serious expression opened his mouth.

"What'll we do?"

"You, ours-are you going to be a 'government'?"

"……e?"

With a serious expression, the chairman brought out an outrageous invitation.
