44. Torino Coyono (3)

“Look at this, Lord Schmitz, they are selling something that looks like fluffy clouds!”

“Okay, go slowly. Then you fall.”

The commercial district around the academy has developed remarkably.

To the extent that it provides food without rest to men and women with full stomachs.

He is being dragged by her hand, which showed off his appetite without regret, and is walking sideways between them.

“Koyono-san, stop eating now… ”

“I’m going to live, so give me a little more strength.”

“… All right.”

I didn’t think it was a small amount.

The unbridled Koyono’s appetite is unbearable.

The way he puffed up his cheeks and called out the nutrition pouch was a little cute, but

The place I set foot in was a cotton candy shop using fire and wind magic.

They sell not only ordinary cotton candy, but also cotton candy in various shapes, such as dog and cat shapes.

A friendly-looking man smiled blankly and explained the menu to us.

“You can choose the shape here. I will make it on the spot.”

“To make such cloud-shaped sweets with sugar… Lord Schmitz, look at this. in the shape of a heart… It even has a star shape!”

“Choose one. I can’t eat it all anyway.”

After going through a long agony with her eyes closed, she buys dog-shaped cotton candy.

I didn’t order it separately because my stomach was saturated.

However, for some reason, the uncle holds two cotton candies in his hand.

“Oh, we only ordered one doggie cotton candy.”

“Uh, I like the two of you, so I’m serving you, hee hee. Come often. Your girlfriend seems to like cotton candy.”

“Huh, girl… friend… ”

A cotton candy man who skillfully drives couples and even provides service.

I roughly figured out why the business was doing well.

I thanked him for the cotton candy instead of Koyono, who was stiff.

“thank you. I will definitely come back next time.”

“Heh heh, enjoy your meal!”

“Ugh… Go, go with me!”

Koyono follows me with a blushing face.

When I handed her the cotton candy without saying a word, she hesitated and then handed it to me, then cast a resentful glance at me.

“… Are you okay? Even if you hear something like that.”

“Are you talking about a couple?”

“That’s right, men and women’s relationships aren’t so easily decided…”

“Well, it’s kind of chess. If you keep your mouth shut, you get free food.”

“That’s not it… ugh… ”

When I put the rim in while talking about chess, she let out a pained sound and blushed.

Well, 80 percent of the merchant’s words are empty words.

I guess I just picked out words that would make men and women happy to hear them.

Koyono, who was very concerned about it, took a bite of cotton candy and then remained calm again.

‘Rather than worrying… Are you okay?’

Thanks to her calm personality and gluttonous attributes, it seemed like she was having a good time.

We made friends by talking sadly, and most of all, she seems to be enjoying it.

With such thoughts, I looked around the streets and enjoyed a leisurely weekend afternoon.

“You seem to have filled your stomach to some extent. How about a cafe?”

“I think you’re talking about a place where you can enjoy refreshments. I wanted to go there, but…”

“If you haven’t been there, why don’t you go there yourself?”

“For two people to enter, the proportion of men and women is not high. Another strange misunderstanding… ”

‘I’ve been staring at you since before.’

The place I wanted to go to was a popular cafe in the academy commercial district.

Originally, I was thinking of going back to the dormitory, but Koyono was staring at this cafe, so I decided to stop by.

After persuading him that he can put off saving face until later, he steps into the cafe hesitantly.

… It seemed that he was attracted to the fragrant smell of the cafe rather than my story.

I ordered refreshments and drinks that I could eat without liking or disliking her in place of the troubled woman.

“Is it better than you thought? It’s a place that’s known for its good reputation.”

He said while drinking the coffee he ordered.

It was recognized by the picky Noble Academy students, so it must be said that it boasts a high level of taste.

“The taste is definitely there, but it’s a little embarrassing to come alone.”

Koyono, who hadn’t adjusted to the atmosphere yet, asked in a creeping voice.

After listening to her words, I looked around and found that there were many people who visited as a pair of men and women.

… I only knew it as a delicious cafe, but it seems that it is being treated as a dating spot for couples.

“Well, doesn’t that mean it tastes that good? If anything, I will come with you next time.”

“…Huh, thanks for the words.”

“Then, let’s have some refreshments.”

He pushed the bowl of cookies in front of her.

After sipping black tea, she looked up and reached out to pick up a croissant.

Following that, Koyono’s eyes widened with a crunching sound.

“…! The outside is crispy, but the inside is so moist.”

“It is the ultimate technique called skin contact.”

“Oh, what a touch on the outside… Is it something like a lion idiom? Well, anyway, that’s great.”

As expected, she ate deliciously.

Even with the previous street food, I had already eaten more than three servings.

Perhaps noticing my strange gaze, Koyono startled and trembled.

“… Why are you staring at me so intently?”

“I just thought it was a blessing to eat.”

“It’s not a compliment to say to a lady… “

To my jokes, as expected, Koyono shows a good reaction.

The story after that was solved as an ordinary school life.

It was because I was worried about going to a dark atmosphere like before.

While going back and forth about this and that, Koyono’s eyes suddenly twinkled.

“Come to think of it, girl, I’ve been curious about something before.”

“Um, what is it?”

“What is the relationship between Lord Schmitz and Arlot Sozer?”

… what kind of relationship Of course, isn’t it between a noble and a servant?

I couldn’t understand what he was saying, so I furrowed my eyebrows.

Seeing this, Koyono hurriedly added her words.

“No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a normal relationship… For example, like a sensual novel dealing with the relationship between master and servant… ”

“… Do you enjoy reading? Such a sensual novel.”

“No, I didn’t give an example! How can such a shallow novel… ”

Leaving the furious Koyono behind, he was lost in thought.

If you ask me what kind of relationship it is, it would of course be the relationship between a noble and a servant…

It’s not that I don’t understand what she’s talking about.

It was true that the relationship between an ordinary aristocrat and servant was excessively close.

Several reasons popped into my mind.

Since the Grand Duke of the North was from a commoner, she herself had no qualms about commoners.

I lived with her as a servant for a long time at her age,

It was because he brought the ‘imprint of flame’ that could alleviate the disease.

But I can’t explain all of this.

“I’ve been helping the lady for a long time, so the only thing she does is treat me comfortably.”

“Um… Even taking that into account, the relationship seemed close. Really, is that all there is to it?”

“No matter how you ask, the relationship between me and the young lady is between a nobleman and a servant… Nothing more, nothing less.”

“Then, if there was no difference in social status from Sojour Arlott, what would it have been like if that had happened… ?”

I ask you obstinately.

As he swallowed his saliva and bit his teeth, he strangely got caught up in her face.

“Princess Arlott is a kind person, so we could definitely have become good friends.”

“then… How about as a woman?

“… If you want something as a lover, I can definitely talk about this.”

The refreshments and drinks were running out, so it was time to wake up.

With that thought in mind, I stood up from my seat.

“Your lady is a woman I deserve. That’s all… Shall we go back?”

“Uh… Come with me!”

Leaving Koyono frantically following behind her, she immediately paid for refreshments at the counter.

… They said it was the best cafe near the academy, and the price was quite expensive.

It was an amount that could not have been easily paid if it had not been for the sucker five years ago.

I was about to go back after paying the bill, but the bread in the packaging caught my eye.

This bread is also sold here.

“Please wrap this bread.”

“You mean blueberry muffins?”

“Yes. Two packages.”

As he was calculating this, Koyono peeked behind his shoulder and poked his head out.

“Do you want to go back to the dormitory to eat?”

“It’s Lady Arlotte’s favorite bread. I’d like to give you a present while you’re out.”

“…As expected, Prince Arlott is just thinking…”

“Did you say something?”

“It’s nothing. Hurry up and get back.”

on the way home afterwards.

The whole time she was walking down the street, Koyono’s steps were strangely fast, and it was painful.

‘Perhaps it’s jealousy.’

I was the one who hurriedly pursued her, closing off the possibility of a stupid question I had raised myself.
