I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

60. Day One, Eileen Nord (1)

1.

Eileen was in a good mood.

When walking down the street in the middle of her capital city, the eyes of those around her naturally focused on her. As if she had nothing to do with the festivals taking place in the imperial palace, the combination of her and Ludrick attracted attention to the extent that the eyes of people living ordinary lives naturally gathered.

“……It’s pretty.”

“The man is also handsome. I envy him.”

It seems that Rudrick couldn’t hear it, but Eileen, who has physical abilities that are different from those of ordinary humans, was able to pick up even the small whispers of people passing by.

The words muttered by people passing by, or more precisely, those who see Eileen and Rudric, all contained the meaning of envy.

Whether you envy Eileen or Ludrick.

Ailin’s shoulders shrugged. She is a combination that everyone can’t help but think of as a good man and a good woman. And Aileen was in charge of one axis of that combination.

“Rudrick, is there anywhere you want to go?”

“……Well, when I came to my senses, I was in a position where I was suddenly dragged here.”

“I see. Then there is no reason not to be in a hurry.”

Eileen, who nodded her head, took the lead and started leading Rudrick.

Anyway, escorting a gentleman is a lady’s duty. She thinks that her consideration for Rudrick has been lacking, and Eileen begins to walk.

How many minutes must have passed since she started walking so vigorously.

Then Eileen realized that as she held Rudrick’s hand, her own hands started to sweat.

It was good that she came out in a good mood since it was the first day and waited for Rudrick. She feels superior while being looked at by others, and feels happy just by being with Rudrick.

It was good even here. It’s going to be a day that couldn’t be more perfect than this.

However, Eileen was in the midst of difficulties in choosing a course for her date with Rudrick.

‘…… It’s a big deal.’

To be honest, I don’t know how many experiences Aileen has spent wandering around the capital, but she recalled her memories of her days as an academy cadet and chose her date course. It had been a long time since I had used it up while walking around.

She was a bit reluctant to go to the same place again.

Usually, Aileen was looked down upon by others because of her unique hard expression and her tone of voice, but she was aware that she was the type to treat people she met often, such as Youngji’s adjutants and staff. Could

Due to the nature of her status, she had no choice but to have a hard time with the sky-like Grand Duke of Nord, but there was a story that Eileen heard as she mingled among them.

‘…… Phew, it took me a while to cheer up my boyfriend the other day.’

‘Why, what is it? Did you forget the anniversary?’

‘No, I went to the restaurant I went to the other day on a date again. They say she’s not sincere. Even if he didn’t say it openly, he showed signs of being in a bad mood.’

‘I really don’t know what a man’s heart is. It’s much better to have a strategy plan, I think it’s more difficult than that.’

As she recalled hearing the conversations of her men, she felt cold sweat begin to run down her spine.

In reality, Rudrick wouldn’t have cared much, and if Rudrick had heard of it, he would have nodded his head, saying that people everywhere are the same.

For Eileen, who only collected information biased in her direction, it was a problem so big that it wouldn’t be strange even if the sky collapsed right away.

“Eileen, is it hot?”

“……No, it’s not like that.”

Rather, it was to the point where Rudrick, who was walking hand in hand without much thought, asked. Rudrick simply assumed that Eileen, who had lived in the north, would come down to the relatively warm capital and get hot.

Similarly, one question I asked out of pure curiosity, without any intention of giving so-called points, drove a wedge.

“So where are we going now?”

“That, that’s…”

Eileen, who hadn’t decided on her destination yet and was walking aimlessly, blurted out her words with a visibly flustered expression.

At the moment, 50,000 thoughts passed through her head, and at the same time, a simulation of the answer she was going to give at this point was running.

First things first. Apologize by telling the truth that you haven’t decided where to go.

‘…… No.’

Eileen closed her eyes tightly.

The Rudrick she’s been through for nearly ten years so far is kind-hearted, so she won’t say anything, but it’s not difficult to draw the disappointed face of Rudrick.

The second.

Use some wit to choose a place to go on a date.

‘This too…….’

Easy to say, if that was possible, there would be no reason to keep thinking about it.

I looked at Eileen, who closed her eyes tightly, put on a frustrated expression, and let out a sigh, wondering why Rudrick was doing that.

As the time for choice approached, the second option was slowly being erased from the choices given to Eileen.

“……Rudrick.”

“Yes?”

Eileen’s voice trembled slightly.

Before ascending to the position of Grand Duke, when he climbed the snowy mountain beyond the wall with only a small patrol, he was not so nervous even when he encountered a large contingent of barbarians.

Even when she encountered more than twenty times more enemies than her allies, she didn’t tremble, and her body trembled uncontrollably like an adolescent girl.

“……I’m sorry. To tell you the truth, I haven’t decided where to go yet… No, I haven’t thought of it. Stop distracting her from spending time with you.”

“Oh.”

“I’m sorry. If you give me a little time, I’ll think about it as soon as possible—-“

“What else am I saying?”

“Hmm?”

Rudrick ate.

It wasn’t such a picky taste, and it was a cute worry from Rudrick’s point of view, who maintained the way of thinking of his previous life.

Rather, thinking that she had been whining about it for a long time, she suddenly felt that Eileen was cute.

“What were you thinking about? You can just go anywhere.”

“Rudrick…”

“If you haven’t decided where to go yet, just walk around first. Then, if there’s a place that looks moderately interesting, you can go.”

Eileen’s eyes twinkled.

“Do you really think so?”

“I don’t know what to say to the person I was worried about just now, but it was a useless worry. Aileen.”

“……Hmmm.”

It wasn’t Rudrick’s intention in his heart, but he had a chimney-like desire to hug this lovable creature that Eileen only chose to say.

Anyway, since we’re not officially dating right now, and our mutual understanding is right, we’ve just come out to pass the time, so that couldn’t be the case. It was not his turn, but Rasil, who quietly withdrew, added a useless word at the end of her, and there was nothing particularly awkward about it.

Even so, in the eyes of others, she will look like a good-looking man and a fairy, so that was enough.

Right now, Rudrick, who had been quietly holding my hand until now, took the lead and started walking.

“How about that one? It looks interesting.”

“That’s…”

Eileen’s face turned red as her eyes followed her fingers. It was a rapidly growing massage parlor in a wealthy capital with a high standard of living.

It’s not the kind of illegal and decadent place that existed in Rudrick’s previous life, but a place with a feeling that couples sometimes choose as a unique date course.

It was just a suggestion made after recalling memories of her previous life, but Eileen, blushing as she fell into the illusion of being alone, nodded her head coolly.

“……If you want to.”

“Don’t you think it’ll be okay? I want to get one because I’ve been sitting at my desk lately. Aileen usually just sits down because she’s working.”

“Recently, barbarians haven’t invaded, so that’s true, but…”

In fact, she hadn’t even had Eileen’s experience, so she was vague about what to answer, but she said that she still wanted Rudrick to try it, so she simply agreed.

“Oops, did you come with your lover? Welcome.”

And as soon as I went in, the boss came out and served the two of us with a smile. It was a simple sales comment to the president.

“Hey, lover…”

Eileen muttered with her embarrassed face, putting her feelings of superiority to shame as she enjoyed the gazes of passers-by just now.

“There are many regular adventurers as well as aristocrats like you two. How would you like to follow the recommended course?”

“Yes. Just make it a recommended course.”

Even while Rudrick was replying, Eileen, struggling with the destructive power of the word lover, paid her bill with her face blushing and quietly followed Rudrick.

But there is one problem.

‘…… Same locker room?’

You can’t get a massage in a cumbersome uniform, so it was good that you were guided to the changing room to change into the simple clothes provided.

However, the problem was that the president misunderstood the relationship between the two and sent Rudrick and Eileen to the same dressing room.

It wasn’t a big deal since I didn’t even change my underwear at all, I just changed the outer clothes into comfortable clothes. Eileen was wearing her underwear properly, and Rudrick was wearing a thin T-shirt underneath her usual robe.

“Doesn’t Eileen change?”

“That, that’s…”

She came into the dressing room and asked Rudrick who was about to take off her robe, but Eileen only blushed at her and she couldn’t answer properly.

I feel like committing a crime just by changing clothes in the same locker room.

“Oh, that must be uncomfortable.”

Rudrick, who had an expression that seemed to have realized something, turned his body to the other side and said while taking off his robe.

“Then I’ll turn around and change.”

“……!”

What I could see in front of me was a thin white cotton T-shirt underneath the robe, and a feast of flesh-colored glimmering through it.

Unfortunately, because of the visual stimulation that Aileen was too strong to handle.

Eileen hurriedly turned her head, holding her hand from the blood dripping from her nose.

“Kuh!”

A short, silent sound.

Her nose, which has been overly sensitive to stimulation lately, never stopped bleeding.

Until Rudrick, who was standing behind him, immediately changed all of his clothes, turned his head, and shouted in amazement.

“Eileen! Blood! My nose is bleeding!”
