Just one week has passed since that day when I was called by the chairman.

Today is February 14th, so-called “Valentine's Day”.

As a man, I'm a little conscious this day.

The time is 8:30 in the morning.

After finishing the morning preparations, I and Leah were heading to the main school building of Chiba Gakuin.

"Well, it's still cold ..."

She wore a wine-red muffler and muttered as she sprayed her breath on both hands.

All the gestures, behaviors and moods are all “as usual”.

(As expected, this is hopeless ...)

To be honest, I was expecting a little somewhere in my heart.

Maybe you can get chocolate from the rear.

But it was my thought.

(Well, of course it's natural ...)

Kata and the defeated swordsman from the countryside, Kata and the princess of the kingdom of Vesteria-As expected, their positions are too different.

(But I'm still worried ...)

Will Peria give someone a chocolate?

Is there any custom of Valentine's Day in the Kingdom of Vesteria in the first place?

While having such a writhing (Monmon) thought,

"Oh, don't get cold today ..."

They replied, pretending to be as natural as possible.

When we arrive at Group A, we exchange morning greetings with everyone in the class as usual.

Because of Valentine's Day, there was a crisp air inside the classroom.

When I arrived at my seat and moved the textbook in my bag to my desk,

"-Allen-kun. Yes, please!"

"Come on, chocolate!"

"Huh, don't expect too much of it?"

Unbelievably, three girls gave me chocolates in a pretty package.

"Oh, thank you ..."

I got a little stuck in the unexpected development.

"I'll tell you first because (...) is scary (...), but ...". That's chocolate-in-law, right? "

`` If you mistakenly pass your favorite, it will be outrageous (...)

"To take part in Allen-kun's Race, you need to be prepared for it ..."

They turned their eyes toward the rear somehow with a bitter smile.

"My race ...?"

If you lean your neck to words you do not understand,

"I'm talking about this. Don't worry."

"I'll do it again, can you give me a taste impression?"

"I'm looking forward to White Day"

They said so and went back to their seats.

"Oh, yeah. Thank you, everyone."

Then, when I put three pretty packages in my bag,

"Well, hmm ....., it was nice to get a lot ..."

Peria muttered such a thing with her trembling voice.

"Oh, I never thought I'd get three."

"That's right ..."

She expressed a complicated expression and silenced as it was.

"..."

"..."

Thereafter, subtle air flows between each other.

(What happened ...?)

Until a while ago, the rear was just as usual ...

Now she has a very difficult face with mixed anxiety and impatience.

(Did you say something annoying ...?)

Then when I was bothering my head-the back door was opening vigorously, and rose came in from there.

(That's unusual ...)

She is extremely fragile in the morning, and she routinely comes to school with a sleepy manako with an artistic sleeping habit.

But-Only today, the situation was very different.

Your hair is neat, your eyes are open and the air is dignified.

(Is Rose giving chocolate to someone ...?)

I was thinking about such a thing-she went straight up and stopped at my eyes and nose.

"--Allen, today is Valentine's Day. If you like it, take this and take it."

She then takes out a beautiful parcel with cherry blossoms drawn.

"Th-This is……?"

"I don't know if it fits my mouth ... but I got up early and made my homemade chocolate cookie."

I never imagined that I could get chocolate from that rose.

"Thank you, I'm really happy!"

After thanking the person properly, and thankfully receiving the parcel,

"... you're a little insensitive, so let's be clear."

She looked straight at my eyes with a serious expression.

"--I have a lot of favor with a man, Allen-Roadle, as a woman. Remember that."

Rose dyed his cheeks slightly red, and smiled a pretty smile that he did not normally show.
