It’s about the night of few days ago.
Someone knocked on the door.
Opening without thinking, I saw Laurel and gently shut the door.
As door was knocked again, I opened it, there still was Laurel.
Huh? Why!? What is it for? While welcoming her in panic, Laurel-chan entered the room, bowed and offered an extra-large bouquet.
[Um, I thought I troubled you, so I wanted to express my grat.i.tude!]
Laurel was fl.u.s.tered and didn’t say a lot.
She was pretty nervous to visit me as I am a middle cla.s.s n.o.ble.
Considering Laurel-chan in trouble, I without resent was helping against her attackers.
Both of us spent time confused and couldn"t start a talk.
It was Laurel who ended the silence.
Laurel who is usually a simple person and has shy personality, changed to an aggressive character when flowers got involved.
Laurel raised her head and noticed a lot of potted plants in my room.
“I am glad that such a person who loves flowers in the academy! I am so glad!”
Laurel who thought she was able to meet the flower-loving comrade was excited.
Dyeing her cheeks in pink, making her eyes glitter, [Flowers are blooming beautifully!] She praised it.
I was very awkward thinking about the acquisition route.
Laurel clutched my hands and gave me a [thank you] with excitement.
“Thank you for helping me!”
“Oh, yeah, I"m glad that we both are safe.”
“Yes, not only that, not only in the cla.s.s, but also for food and clothes, thank you!”
Laurel seemed to have noticed what I was hiding.
Because I could only do small things, I thought that it was not enough to thank me, but Laurel said my actions were quite outright.
Every time a cla.s.smate did a terrible thing to Laurel, I was grinding my teeth suppressing the anger and trying to distract their attention.
Even at that time of soup bullying
[Well, that soup is delicious isn"t it?]
Even being scared of persistently saying that, I withdrew the cla.s.smates who were bullying Laurel-chan.
The feeling of wanting to set a distance from strange existence like me, exceeded their disgust for Laurel.
That is how I felt that my position is in danger.
“Even that evening, Tiarella-san could escape alone, but you protected me. Even at the ship restraining your friend … Thank you so much, I will never forget your kindness!”
“Er, um … … to go that far … … Do you mind forgetting?”
Trembling to Laurel-chan"s vigor.
She seemed to be hungry for kindness from others and was overflowing with more than necessary grat.i.tudes.
“I wanted to say thanks earlier, but …… Um … couldn"t go out … ….”
Laurel"s vigor in talk disappeared.
It seemed too complicated to speak.
“Were you alright? Did not you recover with magical power?”
If you own a magical power as much as Laurel, you could recover immediately as soon as you pa.s.s through the magical power non-interference area, but alcohol did not suit her const.i.tution so much.
“Um, no it’s different, I couldn’t …out, in the room, that … …”
Laurel-chan face became red.
Take it out? What?
“Um, could it be Ricardo-sama!?”
In my words Laurel shook her head shivering.
Um, I’m getting closer to Laurel-chan, who is making the story awkward and long.
Who does not let her out of the room? Ricardo-sama! There is only him, who could do that!
Expecting erotic extension in the room, the hole of the mouth and nose spreads out.
Because it is erotic moment which is not in the original story, I grasp the progress of things! Laurel-chan, full of curiosity, with a fake justification. So? I Urge the continuation of the story.
“Umm, umm, sorry for bothering you in the evening! Oh, good night,”
Laurel-chan escaped.
Well, regrettable. I wanted to hear more.
What was Ricardo doing, locking her in the room?
What kind of adult development was unfolded?
“… …. even though you are old enough to inquire those things! What are you shouting with that vulgar face?”
“Oh!”
I was surprised by Melba, who was right behind me, without feeling any signs of him before.
Well, how long he has been here? But he came just at a good timing.
I wanted to talk with him about various things including the visit of Laurel.
Irregular situations occurs too much in extracurricular lessons.
This will be bad! I think, but there is no way I can handle it.
For the time being I gathered the information, but the mystery is deepening.
The first mystery is Melba.
I am worried if the evil mobs would speak about Melba and looking at the state of affairs they should know that one more intruder was involved.
However, the Luxen academy invasion case was closed, when the person who guided the three people came to light.
The existence of Melba has not been pursued.
And it"s also a mystery about me.
Laurel came down and asked Ricardo to confirm my safety.
I told her that someone helped me.
Ricardo-sama seemed to have said that I had no problem after leaving the side of Laurel for a while.
Ricardo know that I was involved, but he was not interested in the circ.u.mstances.
I thought I was a neglected because I’m a supporting role, but that is also unnatural.
However I can"t ask Ricardo.
“What do you think so? I am afraid that there is nothing happening, but … …”
“Who knows?,”
“Besides Ricardo, that night, Levin supposed to come after him. Where was Levin, what was he doing?”
“It became bothersome, no?”
Levin is not such a lazy person. Do not compare him to yourself.
“However, I’m becoming a wonderful person who likes flowers in the eyes of Laurel-chan, though I bought them from her flower bed.”
I thought of going back to the flower bed when the spot was empty, but the flower bed was already filled with flowers by Laurel-chan.
Although I raised them, I think that misunderstanding is a terrible thing.
After that, Laurel never approached me.
It seems that she doesn’t wish to be involved with the disliked person as myself and doesn"t approach me.
But occasionally our eyes meet, and I receive a smile that is very friendly.
Laurel"s smile on flower-loving comrade is heartbreaking day after day.
