One day.

Isaac was visiting the embassy of the Kingdom of Fatil.

To thank Loretta.

Nevertheless, it's not like she did anything.

I didn't do anything about it.

"I know you've been wondering, but I appreciate what you've been watching so far."

Isaac passes the bouquet to Loretta.

It's a little gratitude because she didn't move.

Loretta receives a bouquet of flowers with pleasure.

"I heard that Mr. Isaac (...) was careful not to become a factional problem, so we were discussing and deciding not to get involved. Nicholas suggested it."

"Well, is Nicholas here?"

Isaac sees Nicholas in his presence.

He seemed a little nervous.

"I thought the issue of Lady Judith, the Virgin, was one that could be accomplished only within the Kingdom of Reed. Since Senior Isaac was trying to get things done between the aristocrats and the neutrals, he also advised that we should refrain from listening with interest."

To Nicholas' words, Isaac nods yeah nagging.

"If Mr. Loretta (...) had shown interest, he might not have had to just look at the Wang party and other countries as well. Thank you for encouraging me to weigh in. Well done, Nicholas."

Praised by the hero of the Redemption, Nicholas laughs lightly.

I turned to him with a gaze the others seemed envious of.

To them like that, Isaac speaks.

"It's not my subordinate role to say just what my lord wants. Even if you don't like it, it's important that you advance what is necessary according to the circumstances. It is the subordinate's role to provide the master with a number of options. You should give your opinion more and more."

"Yes!"

They were honestly pleased that Isaac had given them valuable advice.

What you are saying is not difficult.

Everyone knows it, but it's going to be forgotten.

But "Isaac taught me" was important to them.

Even though it was a small matter, the words of the respected person seemed invaluable.

"So... Are you going to tell me what happened today? Though it was a hell of a thing just to hear rumors coming in my ear. I've been patient trying to visit Isaac ever since."

"Of course it is. That's why I asked you today."

Isaac answers with a refreshing smile.

(It is not a bad idea to maintain friendly relations with the Kingdom of Fatil. Still, I hate to talk like a friend to the princess in an embassy in another country...)

Since Loretta has called him "Mr. Isaac" not "Senior Isaac" or "Lord Enfield," Isaac was up to it.

But this is the embassy of the Kingdom of Fatil.

It is the realm on the side of the kingdom of Fatil.

There was resistance to calling me "Mr. Loretta," even though Loretta wanted it.

It was uncomfortable as if I were renting a bathroom at a friend's house where I went to see him for the first time.

"Well, wow!

At the end of the explanation of the situation, Loretta was surprised to put her hands on her mouth.

The boy opens his eyes and the woman reacts similarly or stopping by with Loretta.

Some of them turn an anxious gaze, "Would my own fiancée, who was in love with Nicole, be okay?"

"As far as I'm concerned, Mr. Judith doesn't seem to be the only one who's been chosen by God."

"What? Why is that?

Loretta's words were things that Isaac had never thought of.

"Oh, did you notice that Mr. Isaac didn't notice?

She laughs couscous.

Nicholas and the others said, "Is it okay if I laugh about Isaac?" He was heartbroken.

Isaac, the Duke's head, has a better formal position than Loretta, who is just royalty.

Regardless of whether it's about bickering, a laugh that includes the implication that you beat your opponent is bad.

Especially to them who are in a weak position, they behave so much that they feel scared.

I won't be cautious here because they seem to be in a friendly relationship, but I was thinking of making a slight point later.

Loretta herself had no malice, although she worried about her surroundings.

Because she was simply delighted that Isaac was one step ahead.

"Under Archbishop Seth prayed, and God saved Judith. It seems that way at first sight, but I tried not to hurt Master Judith because God would not let Mr. Isaac kill people. Doesn't it even look like... wind?

Isaac also laughs bitterly at this.

Maybe that's the way I see it.

From Isaac's point of view, it is true that he kept himself (God) from hurting Judith.

Besides, I even had a magic knife ready under it.

If you call those who helped Judith God, then Loretta is right.

But I had trouble being too deified, so I decided to deny it immediately.

"When I heard that, I was convinced that God was still miracled to help Mr. Judith. I've already killed my brother, so I don't think so. If God was watching over me, he would have done miracles when he was my brother."

"Oh, speaking of which, I was..."

Loretta's love for Isaac must be clouding her eyes.

"Isaac is not the saint?" The idea was floating first.

That's why I was accidentally out of my mind about my past job.

"Looking at Mr. Isaac, you don't look like someone who kills people with his own hands, do you? You just look like a normal person."

"If you don't have to get your hands dirty, I guess that's the best part. We were cornered back then, so we had to do it."

"After all, you had no choice. It was strange because he didn't look very violent. Who can do it when you do it......, I think it's nice"

Loretta blushed her cheeks for some reason.

Isaac said, "Was it a stream to dye your cheeks?" and look at her wonderfully.

The others looked at Isaac in a cage of awe, saying, "Oh, the usual soft-handed attitude is to keep people alert.

But Loretta didn't just praise Isaac either.

I have some suspicions that I can't wipe it off.

Hit that honestly.

"But I can't give you an attitude towards Senior Nicole (...). I don't understand why you're trying to protect someone like that."

Loretta hated Nicole, who had the worst impression of first meeting.

So instead of Mr. Nicole, there was a natural desire to take a little distance by calling him a senior.

(It may be unnatural for Nicole to be able to help even though she is also a cause of the incident. So I guess you wonder)

Isaac thought so.

I also think I should explain the situation to Loretta.

"This case is caused by Michael's rampage. The punitive target was also Michael. So you can't let Michael do what he wants. I tried to protect Mr. Nicole, too, to get in Michael's way. Not for Mr. Nicole."

"That's understandable by reason..."

Isaac's reasoning was "not to let him get Michael".

That's not wrong.

Sometimes, however, I'm not convinced in terms of emotion.

"From what I heard in the rumors, I didn't care about Senior Michael, and it seemed like I was just trying to think about Senior Nicole and protect him. Doesn't Mr. Isaac really like Senior Nicole?

"No way! That's a misunderstanding. I'm not interested in Nicole. Besides, I have a fiancée. She's more attractive than Mr. Nicole. I never liked Mr. Nicole."

"I hope so, because Senior Nicole is regrettably beautiful..."

Loretta looks worried about Isaac.

- Beautiful girl that women also admit.

It's a beauty that makes such a difference that some people don't feel remorse.

Loretta, who lived a life where she couldn't be confident because of her facial scars, had the thought that she was the one who didn't win because of beauty.

For that reason, he thinks that Isaac can't help but lose Nicole's charm.

Isaac has not guessed what Loretta thinks, but her remarks make her in a heartfelt hurry.

(Is that it? I think it's kind of bad...)

Isaac's impatience is caused not by Loretta, but by Pamela.

Thanks to Kai, I solved the misunderstanding, but soon after that, I did something that made me suspicious.

I'm sure he may be anxious again.

(You should make an excuse soon though...)

- The key is Pamela.

It doesn't make sense to put Nicole in Jason's shoes, and even if Jason plays the lethargy, Pamela's heart goes away.

We must meet as soon as possible to provide an explanation.

If I hadn't met Loretta, I wouldn't have noticed.

I resent my stupidity.

"Mr. Isaac?

Loretta speaks to Isaac, who has shut up.

With that word, Isaac realizes he needs to clear up the problem ahead of him.

"No, I was wondering why Loretta looked worried about Nicole. In beauty, Mr. Loretta would be better up there, wouldn't she? I can't help but hate him because he was being rude, but he's not the kind of person Loretta cares about."

Isaac gave his honest thoughts.

I have no lies or lies about this. I mean it.

That's why it also resonates directly with the mind of the person you were listening to.

Isaac told me it was "beautiful," and Loretta made her face bright red and nagging.

Like the others, the words were so authentic that they believed Isaac was beautiful about Loretta.

But someone reacted differently.

Nicholas, who was listening beside him, just knows the truth by himself.

- That Isaac has different values from the public.

(I can't just say this. I can never tell you. Oh, I shouldn't have spoken to my aunt...)

He was told that he would not treat the others with special treatment.

Unless it's in public.

He talked to Margaret when he visited the Mansion of the Marquis of Wellrod on a few errands.

At that time, "Isaac's preference for women is that she's a plain eyed girl," he said.

Plain eyes are vague expressions wrapped in oblate.

In fact, I also felt that "I prefer to be weak" because of the conversation.

Isaac said, "Mr. Loretta is beautiful."

It's like saying, "It's a busike," by public standards.

I'm glad Loretta herself is appreciated by Isaac, but I still can't tell you the truth.

Nicholas knew Loretta would be happy with the scar.

"Weren't you preferred to have had scars?" I don't want to see you disappointed.

If you're about to find out, you have to mislead yourself knowing the details.

(Grandpa was right...... You shouldn't have talked to my aunt)

Nicholas remembers when he spoke to his grandfather, the Marquis of Sonicroft.

'Talk to Lord Welrod if you have any problems. Just watch out for Margaret.'

"To my great-aunt? Isn't it the other way around? Your aunt is inside, isn't she?

"Although I do now marry the Marquis of Wellrod, I wouldn't forget my loyalty to the Fartil royal family either. But there's something about him that keeps him off guard. He was chosen by his predecessor, Lord Welrod, as his son's wife. I might try to use you for something because I think it would be good for both countries. Be careful what you say when you talk to Margaret. '

I was talking about it.

Now I can't regret taking my grandfather's advice lightly.

(A casual stream of chatter. But I was only slightly hinted at, and I was forced into a situation where the relationship between His Royal Highness and Lord Enfield had to move well. He's really not alarmed...)

Maybe Margaret was also to the extent of "I wish I had a relationship with the princess of my country".

Getting along with Loretta and Isaac is not a bad thing for both countries.

Even as Nicholas, there was no difference in helping it.

But Nicholas had a harrowing thought in his chest that Isaac's preference would not be known by some applause.

----------

Three days before the end of the first semester ceremony begins.

Isaac decided to meet Pamela in secret through Lucas.

You'll be busy at the student council the day before or on the day of the closing ceremony, and I can feel free to invite you after the summer break.

So I decided to pick a spare day to meet him.

As usual, we'll meet in the confectionery shop's private room.

This time he's accompanying two clueless Raymonds and Lucas.

(Fine. Explain it properly and you'll understand. I'm familiar with girls there. Confident)

My sister isn't the only girl I've been talking to in my previous life.

Although I didn't have a girlfriend, I had about a girlfriend.

Everyone said, "Takahashi, you're a good guy, but I want to stay your friend" and "I hope you're still a good friend".

I left when I killed Nathan, but in this world I had a girlfriend around me from an early age.

Pamela should be able to be deluded if the experience of previous life is combined with the experience of this world.

(All right, let's go)

Isaac opens the door to the room where Pamela is waiting.

Then there was Pamela holding her eyes in a handkerchief and crying, and Sharon comforting her.

(I want to go home...)

Isaac's heart breaks in three seconds from determination.

After awkwardness, I turned my heel back and wanted to go home.

But if you run back here, the situation gets even worse.

I can't get away with it, and I'm gonna stand up for it.

There was someone pushing Isaac's back like that.

It's not a metaphor, it's physically by hand.

When Isaac turned around, it was Raymond who was pushing.

"I just have to go," he says with his eyes.

(Right. You can't run away. Instead, you might want to think of it as a chance to gain favor by removing anxiety. Go)

Isaac steps inside the room because he was physically pushed back.

Pamela releases the handkerchief, confirms Isaac's appearance, and hides his face again.

Because I didn't want to be seen crying and squeaking faces.

"It's been a while. Dear Pamela... Until earlier, I was fine, but when Isaac said it was about time he came, he cried out..."

"Oh, really?"

Sharon's words cross Isaac's mind.

That's all that's straining Pamela's mind.

I didn't mean to make you sad, but it's my responsibility to mislead you.

We needed to solve the misunderstanding as soon as possible.

"Why...... Why, Isaac..., take Nicole... Believe what, okay...... I don't know."

Faster than Isaac talks, Pamela blames Isaac in tears.

Because from her, it just seemed like Isaac was obsessed with Nicole.

I was just trying to trust you, so that shock was huge too.

(Yah, that doesn't sound like a normal excuse)

Seeing how Pamela was doing, Isaac thought so.

If you just say "no," you probably don't get it.

I thought we should reopen this place the other way around.

Isaac pretends to be calm and sits in front of Pamela.

"Do you doubt me? Why is that? I don't know why."

To that word Pamela just says "incredible," but opens her eyes wide open.

But Isaac goes on before she says anything.

"Did you tell Mr. Nicole to protect you? Why would that make you sad? That was to keep Michael from trying to fulfill a single wish. It wasn't to protect Nicole."

"But Mr. Nicole... Your Highness..."

"I know. But what Pamela asked me to do was to keep it away from Her Highness. It shouldn't have been something you wanted Nicole to handle in the back (...).... Could it have been that you wanted us to take a violent (...) solution?

"It's..."

Pamela couldn't say anything.

Because even if I really wanted a tough response to Nicole, I couldn't ask Isaac, who was attracted to my heart for less.

On the surface, I just have to take a "I want you to pull away from Jason" attitude.

Because if I didn't, Isaac was going to disappoint me.

Of course, even if Pamela had asked for Nicole's assassination, Isaac would not have been disappointed.

Given her position, she said, "Don't you overreact even though you don't know what's gonna happen to graduation? I would have done as much as I thought."

But that's because Isaac knows the future of Pamela and Jason.

As for Isaac, he thought Pamela was hoping, "I don't know the future, so I want Jason apart".

Unfortunately, Isaac had no power to discern a woman's true wishes.

"I didn't forget Mr. Pamela's favor. I will continue to help keep Mr. Nicole away from His Highness. But that's within the bounds of what you asked. If I handle Nicole on my own, I'm sure Pamela will be sick. Killing people is more of a burden to your heart than you think."

Isaac gently tells me that he did not assassinate Nicole only because of Pamela, where the momentum for crying had loosened to insist that Pamela's request "pull away".

That was strangely convincing, says Isaac, who has experience in killing his brother.

Pamela gradually stops crying and sees Lucas somewhat calmed down.

Lucas, seen, panics, realizing what that gaze means.

"No matter what you think of that one, you seemed so willing to protect Mr. Nicole... It could have been a mistake on my part. But don't get me wrong, but Isaac doesn't know what I'm thinking. I just told him what I saw."

Lucas' excuse makes Isaac realize Pamela was mistaken in his report.

But I didn't mean to blame Lucas.

Given his position, it's only natural to report it to Pamela.

I don't know what Isaac would have done, but I knew he was tasked with reporting something about Nicole.

"Lucas, you have to be objective when you make a report. Mixed subjectivity creates unnecessary misunderstandings."

Isaac gives Lucas a word of caution, and next he releases his words toward Pamela.

"Mr. Pamela, I said I would protect you. There is no lie or falsehood in that word. And there's no lie or falsehood in the words I told Mr. Nicole I would protect."

Pamela's face catches on.

Because I felt like Nicole took Isaac.

"The words I said to Mr. Pamela are not limiting in scope, but the words to Mr. Nicole are limited to the Count Brander family. That does not mean giving Mr. Nicole full cooperation. Don't get the point wrong."

"Yes......"

Pamela turns her face bright red and covers her face with a handkerchief again.

Now it wasn't the crying and the red tide, it was because Isaac was embarrassed to suspect Nicole had attacked him.

"I'm sorry. About me, Mr. Isaac."

"You don't have to worry about it. Because I was the one who acted suspiciously. But remember. The better my relationship with Nicole is, the more I can keep an eye on her movements in a natural way."

Isaac blocked Pamela's words.

Because I didn't want to hear words from her that I suspected or anything like that, and I didn't want her to say it.

"If you were sneaking around somewhere talking alone, not in public, that would make you nervous, wouldn't it? That's why I said it in a human eye. Rumor has it, I thought I'd get into Count Brander's ear."

"You were. I'm really stupid..."

Pamela replies, but the face hidden in the handkerchief was full of anxiety.

Isaac can count on it.

But the closer I got to Nicole, the more insane Isaac felt.

I also thought this action was due to Nicole's progressing relationship with one stage (...).

From now on, I get anxious about whether I can believe Isaac unconditionally.

But only Isaac had a strange feeling you could believe.

Driven by conflicting thoughts, Pamela was feeling like her chest could be tightened.

Isaac, on the other hand, was anxious and full of breasts at Isaac.

(That sucks. At that time, I just said it because I saw Nicole's face and thought, "I have to tell you"... But why did I say it in front of everyone then...)

Pamela took care of it with an excuse to sneeze on the spot, but Isaac couldn't understand his actions.

Whether it's rumored to be in close contact, I should have talked to you two.

It was a matter of not telling Nicole in the first place and sending a messenger to Count Brander.

I didn't have to tell Nicole directly in the classroom.

(Totally no more...... When you act on the thought of the spot, you really don't get a lock on it. From now on, even more cautious behavior is required. Be careful)

Isaac thought so.

There has been an inadvertent mischief.

I thought it was one of them this time, so I only thought it was my mistake.
