The Sub-Heroine’s Butler Is a Vicious Bastard

46. jealousy (2)

Monday morning at the academy was bright.

I wonder if there will be a pleasant Monday, but today I feel even more exhausted.

Arlot and Koyono.

It’s because the two women took out a lot of gin.

And that’s not all.

From the way the two of them treated me, a strange air current flowed.

First of all, the conversation between Arlot and Koyono has been slow.

The way they both look down and wriggle their fingers is somewhat similar.

Even so, the reactions of the two were slightly different…

“My lady, did you have a good weekend?”

“… oops, ugh… ”

Arlott is strangely avoiding my gaze.

Judging from the fact that his skin was considerably red at first glance, it seemed that he was still ashamed of his sudden behavior in the dormitory.

On the other hand, what about Koyono?

“Did you have a good day?”

“…exactly.”

“Come to think of it, I heard that Eastern dishes are served as lunch specials today.”

“…Well, that’s a good thing.”

It’s a strangely short answer, as if he had a heartache.

Did I say something wrong on the way back?

The only thing I remember is that she was a little agitated when I bought the muffins for Arlotte.

“ha… After all, the only person I can talk to comfortably is Evan.”

“…?”

Evan tilted his head with a questionable expression.

Me and Arlott sat at the back of the classroom.

In front of us were Koyono and Evan.

Originally, Evan wasn’t sitting next to Koyono, but

Other nobles asked to change seats or something.

After all, the entire class is united in its own clique.

‘… At some point, factions split.’

As if it was a natural flow, a clique formed within the lower class of only 16 people.

There is also a gangster faction centered around the mad dog Sherald.

There is also a faction of honor students led by a dwarf elf girl.

And the four of us belonged to neither of these two factions.

It’s kind of like an independent faction.

The Sherald faction, which is full of sloppy guys, or the Elves faction, which is full of stiff guys.

I’m rather glad that I don’t belong anywhere…

‘It’s oddly upsetting that Arlot is being ignored.’

Thanks to the fact that her father was sealed as a grand duke as a commoner,

Disregard with jealousy always follows her.

It’s not strange since the extras’ behind-the-scenes work toward Arlott has been covered many times, but

As expected, I don’t like the way the guys acted.

I feel like I want to contact the family and solve the ‘crow’, but

Arthur is in the middle of worrying that he will only worry about the Grand Duke.

I will have to solve it entirely on my own.

That was the time when I was determined.

“Good morning, gentlemen.”

Ryan burst through the classroom door with a grin on his face.

I thought a tired face was the default, but to see a face like that.

The reason why she was so bright even on Monday morning was quickly revealed.

“This week is self-study week. Do you remember?”

Self-study Week.

As an extension of the academy’s fellowship promotion activities, it is a week in which activities are planned and carried out autonomously inside and outside the school.

The expression of experiential learning planned by students themselves would be appropriate.

“It doesn’t matter if you do it alone or with a group of people. Just carry out the plan, write the report and bring it by next Monday. That means no classes this week!”

… Why does Ryan look more happy than the students?

Leaving her behind, I reflect on what my self-study week looked like.

A week of self-learning.

I remember that it was a system where when a player selects a region to proceed with a schedule, an event takes place with a heroine from that region.

Koyono for the east, Hanna for the center, Arlot for the north, and Rain for the west… what was it like

But maybe this time it will be different.

As soon as Ryan left the classroom after the explanation, I immediately opened my mouth.

“How about going to the South with the four of us?”

It was because I had a plan to take care of various advantages at the same time rather than immediate favorability.

So, I immediately began to tell Koyono, Arlot, and Evan about my plans.

* * *

After school, when I returned to the dormitory, I immediately started packing my things.

I had a plan and I was done persuading, so there was no reason to delay.

[It’s been a while.]

It’s Miho’s voice.

As I was wrestling with my luggage in the middle of the day, she appeared after a long time and started talking to me.

“It’s been a while, Miho. I haven’t seen you in a while.”

[He purposely hid his appearance in order to adapt well to the new environment. Isn’t it something you shouldn’t rely on me too much?]

“Would you like to do well?”

I was able to pack everything roughly while listening to her words in one ear.

It was to the extent that my travel bag would become full as I put this and that.

It’s not just going out to play, and you don’t know what will happen, so you have to prepare for this.

[Yes, did you say you were going to the South?]

She didn’t speak, but was she listening?

I nodded politely at her words.

As Miho said, our party was planning to head south.

[Do you have any reason to go to the South? There are dungeons nearby, and given the time, I wonder if it would be good to show your face in the north as well… ]

It was natural for Miho to have doubts.

To go to the South, where you have no connections and have never been.

Because of this, it was quite difficult to persuade Koyono and Arlot.

Although I tried to persuade them by using half a group.

In fact, there was a different reason.

“There will be something to be gained from it.”

[…] Whoa. Are you saying you considered all of that in that short amount of time?]

“I just came across it by accident.”

Let’s head to the southern dungeon that has already been stabilized and proceed with exploration.

I’ve just finished persuading them to go to the South for a trip, as not everyone has ever been there.

Most of the students would like to spend a week playing around with museum visits or cultural experiences.

There was a reason why he refused to eat such a day and went to the hot, humid and dangerous south.

‘The monster that appears in the midterm… ‘

The academy’s midterm exams are coming soon.

When dealing with the monsters that will appear there, there is a hidden piece in the south that will be of some help.

For me, who was trying to move up to the intermediate class with the three of us, his existence was absolutely necessary.

And that’s not all.

Through camping, which is the beauty of dungeon exploration, the relationship between Arlot and Evan is promoted,

Looking for a way to overcome Koyono’s trauma.

In fact, a grand plan of killing three birds with one stone is hidden.

“At this point, I think the preparations are over.”

It was annoying, but at best I took out all the items from the bag and checked carefully to make sure nothing was missing.

Survival knives, tents, emergency food and more…

Anyone who sees it may ask where you are going to evacuate,

There’s nothing wrong with being thoroughly prepared.

[Well? Schmitz, there seems to be one thing missing.]

“Are you saying you forgot something?”

Miho raised a question and checked his luggage again.

From emergency food to first aid medical supplies, the bag seems to have no shortage.

Still, a guardian deity who has lived for hundreds of years won’t say nonsense.

I waited silently for her words.

[I forgot my contraceptives.]

“… what?”

[I’m talking about contraceptives. There are ways to avoid pig intestines or childbearing age.]

“…”

[…] Why, why are you not talking? No way, I thought that I would be irresponsibly wrapped inside a young child… !”

“Stop talking nonsense and get some more sleep. I woke up for no reason, and I wrote a book… ”

Miho’s dirty talk started again

I wanted to be quiet for a while, but it seems that I haven’t come to my senses yet.

I narrowed my eyebrows and fought with her, arguing with her—

[profit… Another time! You did a good job hugging, biting and sucking the dying child! Did you think I couldn’t see you!]

Miho, who was pushed aside by my speech, shouts it in a fit of panic.

Even though I know it’s a voice only I can hear, it’s a stimulating word that makes me unconsciously look around.

Taking a deep breath at that, I calmly lowered my voice.

“It was just a simple medical practice.”

[Medical act freezes to death! If you insist on doing such lewd things as medical practice, aren’t all lawmakers across the country just pups in heat?]

“… Have you ever thought that peeping into someone’s private life is insidious? Before blaming others for fornication, it seems better to fix that voyeurism first.”

[What, what! Because this guy wants to see you!]

After screaming, Miho lit a goblin fire around her and turned the dorm room into chaos.

She does not stop at this, but uses the imprint of the flame located in the center of her chest to provide burning pain.

The word voyeurism must have been a kind of rebellion to her.

Having suffered measles once, I collapsed on the bed in exhaustion.

Because when Miho sparked, I was the one who lost my strength.

… When I think about it like that, I think it’s a pretty irrational relationship.

[Ugly guy. You forgot the words I wanted to convey to you because you caused a fever.]

“As Yonsei is Yonsei, you have to be careful. I don’t know if you know it’s dementia, but… I hope you don’t just shit on me.”

[Try not to say a word… ! Whoops, that’s it. I’ll remember it later.]

It was Miho who kept mumbling as if he had really forgotten something important.

As I listen to Miho’s murmurings in one ear, I fall asleep before I know it.

… It looks like he was trying to say something about Koyono.

I fell asleep thinking that it must be sexual harassment to harass her nutrition pouch.
