─ ─ The Villain Lady's Goto

I also came to the round table today.

It is with Beth today. I'd like to introduce Beth to Illis.

And I have a bit of a troublesome topic to discuss today......

"Oh. Are you here, Astrid?"

So, yes, it is Friedrich. I feel uncomfortable.

"Miss Elizabeth seems to be with you. Welcome to the round table."

"Thank you very much, Your Highness."

Beth had also been invited to the round table because she was a Marquis Marquis of Donorsmarck. When you get rich at the Marquis, you can't be invited to the round table. Because this is a place to keep luxury nobles from being isolated. For once.

"By the way, Astrid. Today's agenda..."

"Iris! This is Beth we've been talking about all this time!

I crush the subject ahead of time for Friedrich to say something. It is a tactic of war that has been established as a tactic against Friedrich.

"You're senior Elizabeth. Regards."

"Welcome. You're a lovely cousin, Mr. Astrid."

Beth seems usually sick and weak, but Illis still seems sick, too. Your sister is worried about when the disaster will come down, although she hasn't had any major illnesses so far.

But the only thing that makes me feel safe is that Beth, an expert in Blood Magic, has become my friend. She would be able to treat most of the illnesses. So get along with Beth, Illis!

"…… Sister. Can I have a word?

"What? What?

As usual, I went out of the round table pulled by Illis to grab the hem of my uniform and tell her.

"When did your sister get along with that one? Few of your sisters are nicknamed, and besides, I haven't heard you had a relationship with the Marquis of Donnersmarck. How is your sister close to Senior Elizabeth?

I can feel the colour of jealousy in every word of Illis that tells me so......

, I certainly don't get the excuse that I took care of Beth in her childhood by Illis, a relationship from childhood. It would be unavoidable for distrust to spread from there.

Besides, I think Illis wants to protect my best friend. Yet because I introduced Beth to her so well, Illis is here.

"Illis, I'll tell you what. Beth is under certain circumstances. She's my bodyguard. Some of them have the role of preventing things like I did too much in the Silesian War. So Beth is my friend and watchman."

"Is your sister being watched?

I get a look like Iris was surprised at my words.

"Because when you say surveillance, you're not doing anything wrong, are you? 'Cause it's only to make sure I'm in danger and it's like the Silesian War again."

"Is that so…………"

Would this convince Iris?

"I understand the circumstances. If your sister keeps you out of danger, that would be great. Your sister's been in danger lately."

"That's right. Beth will be there for you from now on."

And, for now, let's do it because Illis convinced me.

So we go back to the round table again.

"Senior Elizabeth. Thank you again."

"Yeah. Nice to meet you."

Treat Beth with a different and brilliant smile from Illis earlier.

"Beth is good at Blood Magic! Don't you have a medical exam?

"Is it a medical examination?

This school doesn't have a medical examination. So no one can tell if Illis is suffering from a serious illness.

"Once, just monitor your body. Do you want to do it?

"If your sister recommends..."

I recommend it! I recommend it!

"Now, if you'll excuse me."

Beth held Ilis' hand softly and continued to hold it with a strange look on her face.

"Fine."

And after a while, I let go of Iris' hand.

"I've seen the initial symptoms of a cold, so I've treated it. Weren't you able to take away your body's weakness or something?

"Is that it? I feel kind of easier if you say so!

Huh? Iris, you had a cold? Sister, I didn't realize...

"Thank you very much, Mr. Elizabeth."

"No. Anytime to this extent"

I see the color of trust in Beth in the eyes of Illis.

I'm glad Iris trusted me with Beth, but it kind of sprouts my jealous heart...... I wonder if I can be cured with Blood Magic as much as I have a cold too......

"... Astrid. Is it time?

Oh. I forgot. You were there, Friedrich.

"What is it, Your Highness? Your Highness also gave you a medical exam?

"No. It's not that topic, it's the agenda that determines the next chairman"

Ha. There was this topic of melancholy.

Generation after generation, the chairman is a sophomore in the Higher Department. We have to decide on a new chairman now that the war is over, although the impact of the Silesian war has slowed us down this year.

I have to think about choosing a chairman for this year because I have also been in the High Department for 2 years.

"Why not His Highness Friedrich?

"Let's discuss that and decide. Because the chairman of the round table is a woman for generations."

It's a pain in the ass. You can do it.

I can't help but say so, so our 2 and 3 year high school students get together at a conference table with Tokotoko. I sat in the corner seat the most unobtrusive and guarded with Beth installed next door. I am not willing to participate in discussions from the edge.

Can you successfully choose the chairman of the round table and so on for the impending 3 years of Destiny's High Ministry! I'll pull back!

That's why I hide behind Beth and keep an unknown face.

"I would now like to discuss the chairman of the round table for this financial year. Let's start with Astrid."

Oh, no! Friedrihee! We're hiding here, but we have to shake the subject!

"Wouldn't that be okay with His Highness Friedrich! I think it would be best if you could chair this place in the most noble capacity! That's it!"

Friedrich, do it!

"But the chairman of the round table is served by female students for generations. Shouldn't this place be a woman?

and it's Silvio who gives a fucking opinion.

You don't have to say anything extra, you battlefield virgin. You can have Friedrich here. Or you do it. Don't try to push others.

"Is there no other rule that a man shouldn't do it? I think it would be best if Friedrich did. It would be hard to put Friedrich down and call him chairman."

Whoa! That's a good thing, Adolph!

That's right! It's tough to do the chairman while there's a guy named Friedrich! It would be annoying enough to do the boss of a veteran who's been joining us on the way! I'm not sure that's actually happening!

"Since we seem to have divided opinions, should we recruit candidates to make decisions on the ballot?

"I was wondering if that would be okay."

Long live democracy! If you don't run, it's a safe zone!

"You can recommend yourself, so let's raise the candidate."

Hey. Stop recommending others.

"Astrid is still the most suitable woman."

"Well, let's start with Astrid."

Wow! Suddenly I'm beaten to hell!

"Be, Beth. Can't we change the flow with Blood Magic or something?

"Why would you use dangerous sorcery that manipulates people's will for such a small thing?"

Guru. Too honest to say anything back......

"Yes, yes! I think His Highness Friedrich is absolutely fine!

Yep! If this is the case, then we'll be up against it on another recommendation!

Friedrich! You do it!

"Anything else?

If I inadvertently recommend Silvio or Adolph here, the vote for Friedrich will be broken, and as a result, I will no longer recommend him because I may be elected. What a strategic electoral plan. It's a boulder, Astrid!

"Now let's have a vote with me and Astrid. First, if you say Astrid to the chairman, raise your hand."

Oh! This guy got into a subtle way of directing votes by letting me vote first and saying, "Oh, my God, that's rude!" What a despicable, extreme bastard! Fight with dignity!

"Be, Beth. I wonder if there's anything I can do with Blood Magic like this......?

"So don't try to use witchcraft for shameful things"

Beth is cold.

Oh, I raised one hand. Alone again. Ah! One more! Give me a break!

"That's it?

Hifumi............. All right, I didn't get a majority!

"So you don't mind if I'm the chairman?

"I think it's very good!

That's great! So let's go!

"Let me now serve as chairman for this financial year. Please, let's all support this round table."

Tell him so. Friedrich ended the meeting.

Hmm. Thanks for throwing a round at Friedrich. Now that I'm swayed by the annoyance of the roundtable...

"And give the vice chairman Astrid. Astrid, let's work together."

...... dude. What do you mean, it is.

"Ahhh. We should have let Beth run for office."

I am so stupid at the end of the meeting in the corner of the disbanded round table.

"I don't want to. I'm already ashamed to be wearing this uniform."

"You look great, don't you?

"Because it doesn't correspond to the year."

Beth is a Loribaba. I think he looks good in his school uniform, but I guess he's personally naked. But what does a creature named Lolibaba usually dress right......?

"What does Beth usually look like?

"It's a normal dress. It's a calm one. Because bright colors don't suit you."

"I don't know. Beth is a pretty girl, so she seems like a lot of things to me. That's right. Next time, why don't you go buy clothes with me? Meine, you're with me."

Beth turned her eyes a little surprised when I told her that, she laughed slightly.

"I'm watching you on the orders of the association, and if I have to, I'm going to wipe you out, and you seem to be my friend."

"You were the first to say you could call me by my nickname, Beth!

"Yes, I did."

Why are you laughing? It's not funny. Don't!

"I'm relieved that I seem to be doing well with you. Sometimes the relationship between the Rosenkreutz Society and the sorcerer ends tragically."

"I'm sorry for the tragedy. I prefer comedy. And did you know that? Next time, that Illis will serve as heroine again and do a comedy in the theatre department! At the Cultural Festival! Let's take a look around the cultural festival together, Beth!

"Yes. Let's do that."

Yeah, yeah. I didn't know it was this comforting to have friends who knew what was going on with me.

"Senior Astrid. Who's that?

"Ah, Mr. Dietrich. This is Elizabeth from the transfer. Beth, this is Dietrich from the Valenstein family."

If we were squeamish, Dietrich, you came.

But, Dietrich, you've grown tall since you got into the middle section, too. Still lower than me, but then they're going to overtake me.

"You're senior Elizabeth. Regards."

"Yeah. Welcome."

Dietrich, I think a kid like Beth would look better on you, too. Is love still for me? Such a greedy witchcraft fool, I don't think a demon-caller deserves your partner.

"That, Senior Astrid. Are your plans available for the next weekend?

"Weekend? I was just talking about going shopping with Beth this weekend."

I have a lot of big quests waiting for me this weekend, but I'd like to try and find a dress that suits Beth this week.

"Was that so…………"

Dietrich, you left with a sad face. White?

"Isn't the child interested in you earlier, Mr. Astrid?

"I don't feel like that, but I don't know!

It remains a mystery whether you really like me, Dietrich.

"Well, I think that's fine. You have a lot to hide, so you'd better be someone who understands that."

"I wonder if he's here."

Beth is the only one who understands the complicated and strange situation in which I have been placed, because I am someone who likes men.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I have business to attend to."

"What's an errand? I'm going out with you!"

Beth gets up, but I get up, too.

"Now you don't know which one you're monitoring."

"Fair enough, I mean fine!

I'm interested in what Beth is going to do!
