Dating counseling (2)
For the past few days, Germain has been in serious trouble.
This is because Melina, a first-year classmate who has a crush on me, has made a date with Corinne.
‘Why… Corin was able to do it, but why couldn’t I?’
We must have spent a lot more time together this way, but why?
Germain was anxious.
Who is Corrin? Isn’t he the hottest knight in the academy and the rare Pungwoonah who has numerous women?
What if Melina has a crush on that older brother?
‘no no. You know bro. That I like Melina. But I can’t betray you…’
Let’s put Corinne second, but what about Melina? If Melina has a crush on Corin, isn’t that a big deal?
Although Germain is the next priest and spy of the Zeruem Church, he is at most a seventeen-year-old boy. He lost patience and approached Melina straight away.
“Melina…”
“Uh, Germain. Why?”
“Well, did you make an appointment to meet Corin on Friday?”
“But? How do you know that?”
“No… Uh, I overheard it. Why?”
At those words, Melina grinned and clapped her hands as if Germain was cute.
“Why did you make an appointment with Corin senior and not with you?”
“Uh, uhh…”
“That senior is comfortable.”
“Huh? Are you comfortable?”
Well, then what about me? Before the words could be said, Melina answered.
“There is no ulterior motive. That senior is not approaching with a hidden agenda.”
“I don’t have one either?”
At Germain’s words, Melina laughed outright and said, “f*ck.”
“Yes, yes, I guess so.”
“T-It’s true!”
It is often said that girls have a higher mental age than boys when they are young.
If you look at Germain being nervous alone and Melina making fun of him, that statement would be true to some extent.

“Senior! Did you wait?”
“Oh, the dress is pretty. It matches perfectly with the straw hat.”
“Wow, you’re sharp?”
“My friends were fashionistas. I would get upset if they didn’t notice me dressed up.”
Of course, there are always exceptions.
* * * *
As an example, I asked Melina to eat something, but since I’ve already spoken, I guess I should stick to it.
I went to the hair salon with Melina and received advice from the girl’s perspective.
I went to the beauty salon and ate with Melina. While I was at it, I was thinking of leaving the line with Germain…
“Actually, the reason I decided to eat with my senior was because I wanted to discuss some concerns.”
“What is it? Can I help?”
“Hmm, I guess so. The most beautiful woman in the Academy is Corin-senior, who knows how to sin.”
“Everyone’s evaluation of me is like this…”
Why does everyone have such misunderstandings about me?
“So what is the content of the consultation?”
“Germain.”
Is this really a coincidence or an inevitability?
Melina smiled and ate a spoonful of the pudding for dessert.
“Actually, I like Germain. I’m wondering if we should date him sometime.”
“Germain had similar thoughts.”
“hahahaha~”
Melina makes a sad expression while stirring the pudding.
“Of course I know that. It’s obvious when you see what she does. She’s a little cute so she’s just doing it so it’s not noticeable.”
“You have a bad mood.”
“Isn’t that part of the charm?”
I thought he was a junior, but he’s more mature than I thought. Anyway, I can roughly understand Melina’s concerns.
“I’m willing to accept it if the other person confesses first, right?”
“That’s right. It’s a bit weird for a woman to confess first, isn’t it?”
Well, even though this era is a worldview mixed with modern elements, it is basically the Early Middle Ages.
Machoism is not machoism, but a world in which the natural virtue of masculinity is pursued. Conversely, the same goes for women.
There is this strange perception that the woman who approaches you first is cheating.
“Keuung······.”
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“No, I think I went too far with girls.”
Everyone confessed to me first and approached me. Marie, Alicia, Hwa and Lando… This is something that I hadn’t thought about since I live with a modern sense.
“Senior, there are so many things I can guess about, so I can’t say anything.”
“Is it that much?”
“Yes, that’s why I want to ask my senior for advice.”
In short, I want to get advice from someone who has experience messing with this woman and that woman.
“In short, what you want is to make Germain confess to you first, right?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, I’ll advise Germain to take on a more bold challenge.”
“Aww~! Thank you, Senpai! I had a good meal today!”
“for a moment.”
I stopped Melina to say thank you.
“You should buy food today. I gave you advice.”
“Yeah~? Ah, I’m a senior~”
I never thought I would hear attacks from seniors, please buy me food here too. But it’s not even a possibility.
“Uh-huh, bitter! Ms. Mel, don’t be like this. These are not the times.”
“Ugh…”
“These are all labor costs. You pay for today’s meal.”
“Chi… you are firm.”
“I’ll buy you the coffee instead.”
“This isn’t a date?”
“What kind of date is it that you don’t even have blood on your head? We just hung out together.”
“Wow, you have such a mindset~”
The sun is slowly setting.
“I’ll take you to the dormitory. Thank you for helping me with the shopping today.”
“That’s me. Please take care of me.”
Germain I’ll have to think about how to get this guy to attack me.
* * * *
Germain couldn’t hide his nervousness all day today.
Melina went on a virtual date with Corinne. It felt like I was going crazy with anxiety.
Objectively speaking, Corin Locke is an attractive man.
A unique wild face and a personality that is unique no matter where you look. The somewhat promiscuous relationship between women is a flaw, but even taking this into account, how many women follow them?
He’s a cool guy even though he’s an adolescent, but it would be a different story if he went on a date with someone I like.
The rich imagination typical of that age group acted like poison.
“Senior… Actually, I am a senior…”
“aaahhh…!”
Although he has a complicated position as a faithful religious person and a spy for a religious order, he is still just a 17-year-old boy.
“Huh… Is he not coming yet?”
That’s why this boy was left in the dormitory for five hours.
Even though it was late and the night wind was cold, they were waiting for Corinne and Melina to return from the city.
As if the wait had not been in vain, Germain saw two people walking together from afar.
Corinne and Melina.
The two people are walking towards the dormitory, exchanging friendly smiles and pleasantries even when seen from a distance.
While carrying bags full of shopping.
‘Why… why are they so close together?’
Really? No, there’s no way Melina would do that, but there’s no way Corin would do that. Knowing that I like Melina, I couldn’t do that…
······Isn’t it there?
I remember his rumor again.
No one denies that he is a good person, but he has a shameless tendency to stick around here and there while pretending not to be interested.
Even Professor Dana, Professor Rulara, Senior Professor Josephine, and Erin Danua, the Chairman of the Board. It is said that he is seen with the swordsman Runia in the city.
Isn’t he a rare alpha male whose spectrum is so wide that even some male students are interested in him?
‘no. ‘I trust Corin.’
Although he thought it was a topic that hovered around Corin as a spy, he believed in Corin Locke’s personality. I believed in his sincere attitude.
“Huh? Germain?”
The two people who arrived at the dormitory recognized Germain and stopped.
Melina glanced at Corinne and Germain alternately to see what they were thinking, and it was because she realized from Germain’s expression that he was being misunderstood.
And it was the same for Corin. An acceptable response would be to correct the misunderstanding… but Corinne said, grabbing Melina’s shoulder and pulling her towards me.
“senior?”
“Germain, what are you doing here?”
“Oh, that’s it…”
I can’t say that because I’m worried about losing Melina.
‘Why are you pulling Melina’s shoulder in such a friendly way? ‘I couldn’t do it either!’
Germain was irritated, but he calmly looked at Melina and Corinne.
“Do you have something to talk about with Melina? Melina. Let’s talk.”
“Ah yes······.”
What is that attitude? It’s as if he’s giving Melina permission.
Germain was displeased with that, but he had no choice. The best I could do was bring Melina as far away from Corinne as possible and whisper to her.
“Well… it’s too late.”
“Uh, uhh…”
“Perhaps… Corin senior and him…”
“ah?”
Melina was startled when she noticed something in Germain’s attitude. At the same time, I realized something.
“Senior has such good manners. I came with him while talking about why I should spend time alone so late at night.”
“W-Even the women’s dormitory?”
“Then why are you here?”
“Uh, um… I was passing by.”
“Really? It’s late. Go in quickly.”
“Uh, uhm…”
slap! Melina turns away coldly. She ran up to Corinne and smiled brightly as she said hello.
“Okay, go in carefully. Let’s play together next time when we have time.”
Corinne naturally touches her shoulder and gives a friendly smile. Melina sent Corin on her way back with a somewhat embarrassed expression on her face.
“······.”
It’s a big deal.
Melina leaves Corinne and that man.
Not now, but what about a second date? There will be more than enough to go over.
“Oh, no.”
You have to hit the player before it’s too late. Feeling impatient, Germain made a decision the next day.
“Meh, Melina… go out with me!”
“Wow… this really works. Is that senior really a natural?”
“uh?”
“Oh, no! Okay! So, starting today is our first day?”
“Wow! G-Really?! Thank you! I like it!”
A trio of second-year students were watching.
“Oh, there’s a pulpit. What are they like these days?”
“······.”
“······.”
Jaeger and Lark shook their heads as they watched Corin’s bold action of ‘inducing jealousy’ and the results.
“A guy who knows this well…”
“Why is love life such a mess?”
No one will ever know.
* * * *
Erin was having a busier life than usual.
I had to take care of tutoring from several students, including Corinne, as well as the upcoming final exam and the fall harvest festival.
In particular, Harvest Festival is a fall festival that replaces festivals.
To be exact, it’s almost like the Academy can’t participate in the harvest festival because of the festival.
Anyway, this year, Merkava Academy plans to hold a grand harvest festival in cooperation with Merkava City.
There is a lot to prepare for this nationwide festival that lasts all week and keeps the tension high until the last day.
‘If you think about it… if a man and a woman spend midnight together on the last holiday, they will get married. It’s a legend from 500 years ago~’
Even if I said it myself, it was funny. Even though she has been rooted in this city for over a hundred years, she only recently heard this story.
Of course, I’ve never heard of such a story, and considering that the source of the rumor is female students, it must be a rumor. still······.
“I want to spend time with Corinne~”
Even after I said that, Erin’s cheeks turned red in surprise.
I wonder if he was such an overtly, childishly fresh person.
-smart!
“Come in.”
The wooden door creaks. Since the door is already almost 100 years old, it seems like it is time to change it.
“Master.”
“Huh?!”
Erin woke up startled by the familiar voice. The person who came in was my favorite student, Corin.
“Why are you so surprised?”
“I was just thinking about my student.”
Erin smiled brightly at her student who visited the director’s office and opened the ceiling drawer.
“I received some nice snacks as a gift from Josephine. I’ll serve them with some tea.”
“I am grateful.”
Preparation didn’t take long. Among the treasures she had was a teapot that could boil water in an instant.
“What’s more important?”
“I don’t come here unless something happens.”
“Well, I see. hehehe…”
Corinne and Erin were moving teacups and snacks when they saw a pile of documents piled up on the desk.
“The fall harvest festival continues at the end of the semester, right? It’s a busy time.”
“Yeah, I think it would be nice to have another body.”
“Can I help you?”
“You’re busy too. Getting help from students is the same.”
Corrin shrugged.
“I wish I could spend more time with you, Master.”
“Uh, huh?”
“It’s good for finishing work quickly and training.”
“Yeah, that’s right. Yes, that’s right. Huh…”
It is the main policy. Erin felt pitiful at herself for being shaken by every word her pale young student said.
“Master.”
“Why?”
“Happy birthday.”
“Uh, I knew… ah.”
Corin experienced the future. He also worked with me there. So it’s not strange to know my birthday.
“This is a birthday present from Master.”
Corrin brought a jewelry box. Inside was a pretty gold necklace, and he picked it up.
“Can I walk for you?”
“Sure, that’s right.”
Erin sat quietly and hid her nervousness. A disciple approaches slowly. Put the necklace around your neck.
Corin is right behind here.
His breath stimulated my ears, his eyes were looking at the back of my neck, and his hands were running through my hair.
-gulp!
How long has it been since I received a gift like this? I feel unfamiliar and embarrassed for no reason. It must be because the young man behind her is a special person to her.

“done.”
“ha···.”
The tension eases and I exhale naturally. Erin looked down at the gold piece touching her cleavage.
“It’s pretty.”
“I got some advice.”
It was an expensive gold necklace that I bought on advice from Melina. The reason he didn’t ask the girls he was close to was because of his own sense and conscience.
“I have prepared a set of bracelets and earrings. Please wear them during the Harvest Festival.”
“It’s someone’s gift, so of course it should be.”
“and······.”
Corin hesitated for a moment as if he was embarrassed to speak. But it’s not enough to make me retract what I want to say.
“You’re pretty as expected, Master.”
“Yes?”
Erin couldn’t completely look at his serious face. At that time, when heat bloomed on both cheeks.
“That’s right, Master.”
“Say it.”
“It’s the last day of this harvest festival.”
“last day?”
This is an amazing coincidence. Just then, I remembered the girlish rumor that a man and a woman who spent midnight together on the last day of the holiday were getting married.
“Yes, midnight on the last day.”
“Now, midnight?!”
Coincidence after amazing coincidence. Erin’s hands were shaking, and the black tea in the teacup continued to create a tsunami.
“Can you stay with me that night?”
“Ugh?!”
My heart was pounding with shame.
no way?
Probably not?
What events will happen this time? I mena, come on, it’s a feestival, there’s no way it will just go smoothly
