153 – Please take a look

The next morning, the 1st grade gymnasium.

“I want to see the kids.”

“Has it only been two days yet?”

“What are you talking about? Four days have passed, including travel time.”

“……”

After morning training, Tia looked tired after hearing Aren’s complaint.

“Rather than that, are you going to Lirina today? Then…”

“Don’t call your friends?”

“…wouldn’t it be nice to be friends?”

Tia spoke cautiously, but Aren shook his head.

‘I know how you feel, but this isn’t it.’

From Tia’s point of view, her friends were precious childhood friends who had been together since childhood.

However, since that childhood friend is not on good terms with her fiancé, she is in a difficult situation.

Even Aren doesn’t want to fall out any further if possible, but…

“Forcing yourself to be close will only hurt your feelings.”

“… OK, this time it’s Ron rather than you.”

“I know.”

Tia put on a disappointed expression.

If possible, I would like Aren to be friendly with his friends, but even if he is forced to join them, he will only grow apart.

Moreover, Ron had not yet stopped provoking Aren.

‘I know the reason, so I can’t say anything…’

It’s embarrassing.

A voice containing the emotions that Ron once revealed to himself.

Although his mind was aware, Tia had never seen Ron as a man.

‘If I confess again… what should I do?’

Of course, he would refuse because he likes Aren, but in that case, he could see the end of his friendship with Ron.

‘Should I do something?’

Tia glanced at Aren’s face for a moment.

“Yes why?”

“… no.”

It would be easier if he accepted my confession.

Tia pursed her lips thinking that.

“…? Why are you upset? I haven’t done anything yet?”

“Is it good to notice these things? It’s okay, let’s go. Wash up quickly and go to class.”

At that time, while Tia was talking, a female student’s voice came from the entrance of the gymnasium.

“I found it! Aren Deepus!”

“… Irene?”

“… Rosengart?”

The orange-haired girl, Irene Rosengart, approached them with a haughty gait.

“Aren Deepus, let’s talk for a minute.”

“It’s me?”

“okay.”

“for a moment.”

Tia opened her eyes at the sudden call from Airen.

“Who takes someone else’s fiancé? Are you crazy?”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about? There’s no way I’d be interested in a guy like this?”

“what?”

“never?”

Aren’t words too harsh? Did I get hurt lightly?

When Aren’s expression turned grim, Tia came to his defense.

“Don’t babble about knowing nothing about Aren? Do you know how nice and cool this guy is?”

“T-Tia…”

As if Aren was moved by her beautiful voice, she blurted out her words, but to Airen, it seemed that only a snort came out.

“Heung! I look at my appearance first.”

“……”

“Tia?”

I can’t hear her beautiful voice.

While Aren was absentmindedly calling for Tia, Airen called for Aren once again.

“Hey, Aren Difus. Can we talk?”

“I have nothing to say to a look-oriented person like you.”

“I’m pissed. What’s good about a man like this?”

When Irene asked, Tia answered with a frown.

“You’re cute!”

“Are your eyes hurt?”

“What is this woman really? Isn’t she talking too much?”

Any further conversation is dangerous to my mind and heart.

Aren moved right away.

“Let’s go, Tia. I don’t want to get involved with a girl like that.”

“Okay, sir.”

“town.”

‘Don’t call me that out of the blue. I was surprised.’

Aren tried to calm down and moved on, but Airen blocked his way.

“Can’t you hear me!? Stop!”

“I don’t like it. Ha ha, why are there always strange people around me?”

Tia responded to those words.

“Including me?”

“… no.”

“This baby. Did you say respect now?”

“Why are you angry with respectful words?”

As the two ignored them and left, Irene shouted, blocking the road.

“Don’t be shy in front of me!”

“This conversation?”

“You just said. Only weird kids get involved.”

Tia sighed lightly.

“It looks like he came because of the holy water.”

“…!?”

“Ah… what if I say that?”

As Aren panicked, Airen glared at him with fire in her eyes.

“As expected! No! Why are you talking to other people!?”

“No, that’s…”

When Aren was perplexed, Tia stepped in.

“You sound like a different person. I’m engaged and you’re a stranger, so what’s wrong with you telling me your secrets?”

“profit!”

Airen could not refute and looked at Aren again and asked.

“Who else did you tell? You weren’t spreading rumors, were you?”

“Um… that’s it.”

“Prey and Lirina know about it.”

Airen screamed at Tia’s light tone.

“Kyaaa!!!”

“Aww, why are you screaming?”

“Hey Tia, didn’t I tell you not to talk?”

said Aren, holding Tia back as if protecting him from a madman.

Tia, on the other hand, clings to Aren’s back as if she feels better.

“I’m the party, so what’s up?”

“Hey, don’t stick. It’s hot.”

“I’m a fiancé, so what?”

“Don’t be shy in front of me!”

Airen narrowed her eyes and said nervously.

“If you guys go around spreading the word about our Miho, then!”

“What then? Do you want to die?”

“……”

Aura Night, Tia Cloud-sama opened her eyes, and Airen flinched and shut her mouth.

“Are you ashamed of the subject of lying with holy water? You’ve been listening to it since before, so it’s very annoying. What if I’m going to talk about it? Do you want to attack with that holy water? Are you going to reach the family?”

“……”

As Tia glared at her, Irene bit her lip in resentment and couldn’t say anything.

sniff

“… Tia, is that person crying?”

“… Huh, why are you crying?”

I don’t know what I did well, screaming, making a fuss, and shedding tears.

Tia sighed and pulled Aren.

“Let’s go, don’t deal with this guy.”

“Yes.”

“Hey, wait!”

The moment Irene shouted urgently.

“Kyung!”

“Mi-Miho!?”

“uh?”

“oh?”

The nine-tailed fox, which had been sitting on Airen’s shoulder, appeared and blocked Aren’s way.

“Quack! Quack! Quack!”

“It’s cute, but not as much as an albino.”

Tia gave a quick assessment and moved her feet again.

“let’s go.”

“No, not even talk…”

“Don’t listen.”

“Kyung! Kyaung!”

snap

The cute creature clung to Tia’s pants this time.

“Why is this guy like this?”

“Kyuuung, kyaung…”

“……”

“Are you shaking?”

Tia’s feet stopped at the sad voice of the nine-tailed fox.

Taking advantage of that gap, Airen said.

“Hey, let’s talk for a minute! …!”

“It’s obvious even if you don’t listen. Aren’t you asking me to keep it a secret?”

“That’s… that’s right.”

Airen made a sullen expression and lowered her head slightly.

“Bi, can you keep it a secret? Boo, please.”

“why me?”

Tia said in a cold voice.

“They come in and speak in a commanding tone, so why should I?”

“M-I’m sorry.”

“And can I just cover my mouth? Frey sister? Lirina?”

“……”

Tia’s words turned Airen’s face pale.

‘Those two, of course.’

Princess Frey is the youngest archmage and the object of her admiration, the other…

‘What if I tell the person I dueled yesterday?’

Airen looked at Aren with resentful eyes.

From Aren’s point of view, it wasn’t particularly wrong, but from Airen’s point of view, it was hopeless information.

‘The disciple must have crossed the water… No, right now is important. Can I still attend the academy?’

What if Lirina holds a grudge over yesterday’s incident?

The family who heard the news might force Irene back.

Besides, if Miho’s existence was revealed, it might be taken away from the family.

‘That, I have to stop that!’

Even if they were separated forever, Miho’s freedom had to be protected.

At that time, Aren, who was watching her expression closely, spoke.

“Don’t worry too much. I told you not to gossip about it.”

“… huh?”

When Airen’s head went up at Aren’s sudden words, Aren spoke again.

“You want to hide the holy water, right? It’s not a normal animal. I told you not to tell anyone. You don’t have to worry about rumors.”

“Me, really?”

When Irene carefully looked at Tia and asked, she snorted.

“I meant to, but I just didn’t like your attitude.”

“Mi, I’m sorry!”

“Hey, Tia. Bully me in moderation.”

As Aren defended Irene, sparks lit up in her eyes.

“Don’t carelessly protect other women. Even against me.”

“… sorry.”

“Tsk, you’re annoying me. I almost sent a letter to my dad.”

“…!! sorry!”

“I wish I knew.”

Tia looked at Airen and said.

“There are conditions.”

“condition?”

“Uh. Apologize to Lirina.”

“……”

Irene couldn’t answer right away.

Certainly, he had spoken a little harshly yesterday to get attention from Frey, but apart from that, he was serious about not liking Lirina.

‘Mr. Lee… if only…’

Airen was also a child of a high-ranking aristocrat.

When she couldn’t answer with pride, Tia continued.

“If you don’t like it, or not. I didn’t know pride was that important.”

As Tia said that and stroked Miho’s hair, Airen flinched and spoke hastily.

“Oh, okay… I apologize.”

“Yes. Including the fight, as well as the foul play in the duel.”

“okay.”

“You too. Was your name Miho? Do you understand what people say?”

When Tia said to Miho, the fox lowered her head.

“Kyung.”

“Apologize to Lirina along with the owner. Then my sister will introduce you to one of your friends.”

“Kyung!”

Hearing Miho’s cute cry, Tia smiled and said,

“Okay! Go now! I’ll ask later?”

“Ah, okay. Let’s go, Miho.”

“Kyung!”

jump

When Miho climbed onto her shoulder, Airen immediately turned around and went back to the Engineering Department.

“It’s cute~”

“what!”

“It’s a nine-tailed fox!”

Aren frowned and said.

“By the way, the albino is at my house right now? How are you going to get him?”

“I don’t know. It will work somehow.”

“Didn’t I tell you to take only white dogs in your wagon? Why are you having trouble buying them?”

“Why are you telling me? My sister left it.”

Before leaving for Felix, Aren saw Cloud’s chariot leaving first and told him to take the albino…

‘Are you going to leave it here?’

‘why?’

‘The white man is looking for Rachel. And Mirai likes albino too.’

‘Aren’t you the owner? Why do you keep going to someone else’s house…’

‘It’ll be my house anyway, so it doesn’t matter, right?’

‘……’

Aren recalled Cecilia’s conversation for a moment and looked at Tia with a heavy expression.

“Your sisters cause me so much trouble.”

“What are you saying? All right, let’s go now. If we don’t go quickly, we won’t have time to wash.”

Tia grabbed Aren’s hand and ran away.
