February 14th.

This day, as usual, was supposed to be one that had nothing to do with Isaac.

But not this year.

(After all, don't change the way you see it when you know it)

As usual, we're all having lunch.

But Isaac had something to think about being around Amanda, Tiffany, and Judith all the way to Loretta.

I know what they think, so I can guess why they're here.

- Because I want to be with whoever I want.

I was told my thoughts, so I shouldn't be over-conscious.

I would have loved it in my previous life, but now it is a situation that I am not happy with.

(Amanda and Tiffany have been together since a year... Were you eating with me because you liked me? Aren't you pitying a guy who doesn't have many friends? Then I feel like I've been doing something pretty bad...)

Marquis Wallick told me to stay with him, not reluctantly, but of his own free will.

I didn't know I was in love, and I had a pretty nasty attitude.

I'm sorry about that.

But all I felt sorry for was in the middle of a meal.

- I felt the anomaly when I went back to class.

At the corner of the hallway, a third grade girl was waiting.

He is a student I have seen in study groups.

She clenched her handkerchief and watched Isaac.

(Maybe, to me?

Isaac wasn't interested in her.

But it wasn't the girl who helped, it was the girl who just dealt with her normally.

I'm honestly glad you're willing to confess.

It was an unlikely situation in a previous life.

But there's something wrong with her.

- I immediately affixed my fear to my face and immediately walked away from the scene.

Isaac said, "What's going on?" He just put his neck up.

However, something similar continued to happen twice or three times, so Isaac also noticed the cause of the anomaly.

Those who left did not flee when they saw Isaac.

- He said he was watching Amanda and the others.

Isaac turns his gaze to Amanda.

"Huh, what?

"No, it's nothing..."

She returned an innocent grin.

But Isaac won't be fooled.

(That's right. Why didn't you notice? Given my position, it's not weird that a girl who doesn't have to be as good as Nicole 'let's just try and confess for now' is about one in the school year. Yet last year's confession was zero. That means there was someone to interrupt)

Perhaps Amanda stared away.

You can't give Isaac a handkerchief until you've been judged by his most prominent candidate.

(No, wait. If Amanda was the only one who didn't feel scared, she wouldn't be afraid. Amanda isn't the only one this year. There are even princesses Loretta and Judith. Didn't they scare you away because they were staring at you too?

Isaac sees Loretta and Judith.

"I didn't do anything," Loretta said with a grin back to Isaac.

Judith is also smiling.

I have a hair fastening so I know the look on that face very well.

That's why Isaac deepened his convictions.

(I'm sure they were intimidating me, too. So I'm having a winning laugh...)

What they're doing is essentially no different than what Isaac's doing.

Rather, it's a gentler way to do things than Isaac because you just have to intimidate and get rid of someone who's going to be a rival.

I couldn't blame Isaac.

This Isaac thought was, to some extent, right.

Last year Amanda and her friends defended Isaac, and this year Loretta and Judith had joined it.

But it is Isaac's impression that he has a laugh of victory.

Actually, "I don't know -" he was just grinning to put it away.

That was because of Isaac's surprise and the way he looked at it.

(... that? This is so bad...)

Isaac is wary of what they do.

Behavior very different from that of themselves means that they are also trying to get themselves.

Especially how Amanda has her classmates on her side.

Isaac, I'm putting up a siege net.

Maybe we're done putting up a siege net.

Knowing the girls' thoughts changed Isaac's way of looking at them.

And I also realized the situation I was in.

(Will I get Pamela fast or will I have to get married because I'm blocked on the escape route... I would have been happy in my previous life......)

It's a dream thing I've only ever seen in comics, such as girls taking it away from me.

But it also depends on time and case.

It was only a heavy load on Isaac, who was after Pamela.

"It's time for lunch break, so go to class"

Tiffany speaks to everyone.

She just thinks she's "loved by Isaac" and isn't trying to get Isaac.

On this occasion, Isaac was also a precious healer.

But someday I have to explain the truth.

Thinking about it made me feel heavier, so I was trying not to think about it now.

"Isaac and I..., we have different classes..., we miss you..."

Trying to go back to class, Judith tries to take Isaac's hand "Don't go".

Loretta grabs the hand quickly and gently to stop.

"Senior, don't hold me in your arms. You should stop."

Loretta doesn't absurd her voice.

Calm and quiet, hold Judith back.

Judith gives a muddled look for a moment, but lowers his hand as soon as he pretends to be calm because his opponent is Loretta.

Loretta looked satisfied as opposed to Judith.

"I'm not in the same class as Senior Isaac either. On the contrary, the school year is different. I still have patience. Be patient, seniors."

"Well, well, you don't have to say it that way. At the heart of it is Isaac's feelings. I can think of enough to welcome some side rooms. Even Mr. Judith could be one of them. It's not a good idea to blame him too much."

"It's..."

Loretta said, "I'm hit!" Give it a look.

She stopped Judith at once.

This is emotional behavior.

In contrast, Amanda showed an adult response.

I told him not to take Loretta and admit to having more than one wife.

This was because of Tiffany's presence, but it didn't seem that way to Loretta.

As an "understandable genuine wife appeal" to Isaac, it was in her eyes.

"Amanda led me one step," she thought, giving me a remorseful look.

But as Loretta thinks, Amanda didn't lead as Isaac's rightful wife candidate.

- Because Isaac was pulling on their exchange!

(Yep... Is this how we take each other...... I'm not happy at all...)

The hero, deprived by heroines reading in comics, looked in an enviable position.

But when I see them taking each other away from me, the emotions I find scarier are stronger than the ones I'm happy with.

The only thing I could think of was, "How do I put this place away?"

It doesn't work on Isaac, such as their desperate rush.

Instead, they don't even know it's counterproductive, and they keep sprinkling sparks.

"... Tiffany's right, shall we go back to class"

"Right."

"Let's do that."

Seeing Isaac's reaction, they realized it was counterproductive to continue like this, and they stopped fighting quietly.

Because I assumed it was a failure.

And...

Tiffany made the most points for not acting on anything.

- And I noticed.

She's been dating Isaac a long time.

I guess you know what attitude it's right to take.

But I also realized that the behavior could not be imitated by others.

- Tiffany has a long relationship with Isaac.

So I'm securing my position as a trustworthy opponent, just like Lisa.

Even if Loretta and the others, who have been dating for a short time, behave the same way, it should be hard to earn points.

We have to act to interest Isaac.

Loretta and Judith were in a hurry when an unexpected and powerful enemy was close to them.

And "let's do our best," with a stronger resolve.

The feuds between the women intensify under the water.

----------

(Uh, tired)

During his departure from school, Isaac felt terrible tiredness.

It's good that Loretta and the others like it.

But I didn't want to see you take it from each other.

(Nicole is amazing. Why can't you stand it in that situation? He's a hell of a tough guy...)

I know Nicole's anomaly very well because I experienced it myself.

I can't just say I have a stubborn heart.

Not only is my mind strong, but I shouldn't be able to stand it without some kind of strong thought to support my mind.

"I want to be surrounded by good-looking people," you just can't possibly do it.

I wish I could be like Nicole, but I don't think I'm going to be.

(I don't know how this happened when I've just been working so hard to get Pamela...)

I'm glad the girls like me, but it's not what I intended.

Besides, it's also true that one day you have to say no.

Isaac, who didn't know how to say no, felt heavier when he thought about what was ahead.

Drop your shoulders and head back to the mansion.

"Welcome home, brother"

"Welcome home."

I've been waiting for you.

Then Kendra greeted me with Lisa and Bridget.

Seeing them smile, Isaac cheers up, too.

"I'm home. What's wrong with you today?

I hold Kendra up and ask her as she cheeks.

It's unusual for everyone to wait in the front door for Isaac to return.

I wondered about it.

"I have a present for your brother. Come to the dining room."

"In the dining room? Fine, I'm excited."

Isaac reminded me that today is Valentine's Day.

Perhaps you'll give me something that will hit my brother-in-law chocolate in my previous life.

It's been a long time since my sister gave me brother-in-law chocolate.

Isaac has no reason to say no.

Yeah, well, it's a good year, too.

Lisa and Bridget may be attached to Kendra's support.

If it's a peaceful gathering like this, it's not bad to be surrounded.

Isaac heads to the dining room, pulling Kendra's hand.

When he reached the dining room, Isaac was told to sit in a chair and wait.

My maid served me a drink, so I'll wait for it.

After a while, Kendra came with a plate.

Lisa and Bridget are watching Kendra as she worries.

I guess you're worried you won't drop your plate.

"Please wait."

The plate placed in front of Isaac contained three pancakes.

The two pieces are cooked well, but one is slightly burnt.

Isaac guessed by the number of these three (...) sheets.

(well, does that mean everyone baked me one at a time)

It would be Kendra's share that is burning.

She was beautiful last year, so she probably baked it for me this year without Lisa's assistance.

But even if it's burnt, it's enough to eat.

There is no problem.

"He said it's a gift day for anyone he likes. So I'm giving it to your brother."

"Thanks. Glad to hear it."

Isaac was so cute about her sister that she wanted to hug and swing.

Until I realize that the "person I like" is about my lover, I want to make up for my sister.

But rambling near food is not Kendra's educational pleasure.

Kiss Kendra's cheek instead.

"Thank you, too, Lisa and Bridget. You made it with me, didn't you?

"Yes, Master Kendra, because I was worried alone. Plus, it's Valentine's Day."

"Sometimes if you don't cook, your arms will get rusty."

Lisa is Kendra's amulet and gift to her fiancée.

Bridget says she enjoyed cooking for a long time with the feeling of playing with Kendra.

But Isaac is not fooled by that much.

"Thank you. I'm glad to hear it...... Mr. Bridget's share will be served as a friend (...)"

"What, why not!

Although Bridget found out Valentine's Day existed, she didn't like embroidery so she thought about behaving as a hand cook.

So I asked Lisa to help me, and Kendra came into the conversation.

I thought if it was with Lisa and Kendra, Isaac would eat it the way it was.

Yet Isaac spotted me perfectly.

"I wish you could eat this much in silence," I am dissatisfied.

"Anyway, as a friend, you can't have hand-cooked food with special meaning. Accepting Mr. Bridget's thoughts means a lot. Receiving miso changes my mind."

Isaac shifts his gaze from Bridget to Lisa.

"Lisa seems to be rooting for Mr. Bridget. I don't even know what it's like to want someone I know well to be a real wife. But you should think about it. If I get engaged to Mr. Bridget, I'm sure Dwarf will send in a fiancée candidate as well. If you say no, you say, 'Why just elves? Are you taking the dwarf lightly?' It will be said. Even I don't want to marry someone I don't want. You know that, don't you?

"... Yes"

Lisa also has to admit Isaac's words.

She herself knows that she was chosen because Isaac was a person she knew well.

Isaac shouldn't like being engaged to someone he doesn't know.

Regardless of helping me get along better with Bridget, I regret that I should not have helped her become more than close.

Seeing as Lisa reflects, Isaac returns her gaze to Bridget.

"Mr. Bridget, as an elf, is still young. There's no rush. You may feel a difference in life expectancy with humans from now on, and you may change your mind. You should be acted upon in five or ten years' time. I'm a good friend now. Isn't that okay?"

"Mmmm..."

I'm sure Bridget also understood Isaac's persuasion, but he didn't seem to be convinced.

However, I don't make any strong demands, so I guess the least is done.

"Okay. That's fine now. It would be better if you created a situation that convinced me of my surroundings."

"That's on my own...... No, you don't have to."

- Do it yourself.

Answer that, if they really do, Isaac will be in trouble.

I don't want the mansion to lose any place to rest.

"Well, let's have it while it's warm. It looks delicious."

All I could do was tear things apart.

"I made it. I burned it."

"It's okay, Kendra. It's just a little fragrant. The first time Lisa made it for me, it was black enough to make me nervous about food."

"That's not true anymore... Forget it."

"It's made right now, okay?"

To comfort Kendra, I brought up the story of a mysterious object that Lisa used to make for me.

But I realize that the story is not just a joke for Isaac.

(Speaking of which, I told Lisa, "feed your first hand cooking to the person who's going to be your fiancée," but you never thought you'd eat it.)

When I think about past interactions, I also feel emotional about pancakes.

Although Bridget's appeal was troubling, she didn't feel as fearful as the Lorettas.

Isaac was chewing up the gratitude of having a place to rest at home and someone to rest with his pancakes.
