125 – Easy come, Easy go – 5
Cordelia let out a heavy, heavy sigh as if something had weighed on her. Recently, she had often sighed alone like this. It wasn’t much of a girly act to embrace her troubles alone, but she had nowhere to turn to for her this time.
If she was alone, she could have run to her friends and talked to them. Cordelia let out another heavy sigh and opened the drawer of her desk. Most of the time she tumbled her medicine cabinet in the empty drawers.
That drug. Drugs were a problem. I don’t really regret buying the medicine. It was quite a lot of money, but it wasn’t too much money to be burdensome to the daughter of the duchy, and it was something I bought thinking I’d need it someday. However, right now I was thinking about how to use this item.
“How did I get it….”
Cordelia held up the unlabeled, plain white pill bottle and shook it. She is so full that I can’t even hear her rattling. Thinking of the hardships she had to get this medicine made her teeth gnash. To think she saved something she wouldn’t even eat through this toil.
She didn’t have a detailed plan, but she acted on her intuition that it would be a good idea to secure the drug anyway. She thought that if she saved it once, it would be useful in some way, such as using it as evidence later.
Then the problem was how to find the item in question. Judging from her Jessie’s reaction, it seems like nonsense for her to ask again where she got it, and in the end, the only clue she’s left with is her back alley and a suspicious person wearing her hood. In the end, Cordelia chose the simplest but surest way to remove it with her body. If you search her back alleys, you will meet her someday.
But are the back alleys of the shopping district a bit wide? After all, she wandered through her back alleys until the close of the day every few days. She honestly thought of just giving up if she couldn’t find it yesterday. Still, she managed to find a suspicious peddler and buy her medicine…
Actually, as I said before, this was a fairly impulsive action, so I didn’t think about what to do with the medicine right away. It was just an act I did with a vague idea that it might be helpful someday. But now it was necessary to turn that vague idea into a concrete plan. It’s an item that I got my hands on, but shouldn’t I use it somehow rather than waiting until the situation comes to use it later.
Eating is too much of a language. On the other side of her drawer lies a well-dried pill wrapped tightly in a handkerchief. When she goes to Jesse’s room, it’s the pills she’s forced into her mouth. If I had intended to eat it, I would have eaten it without forcibly spitting it out at that time.
In the end, it is said that these needlessly expensive things are inedible, and they are just garbage taking up space with no place to use them right now.
Cordelia was about to toss her pillbox in a fit of rage, but she thought of the price and calmly lowered her hand. Just because she’s not a burden doesn’t mean she’s cheap. Money is what you have to spend when you have to spend it, but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to throw money on the floor. She was educated in her own excellent economic ideas.
“Kyaaa! What?!”
Just as she was about to put the medicine cabinet back in the drawer, she heard a tearing scream from outside her room. Cordelia tilted her head for a moment, but she didn’t care too much. It was because sometimes students who saw bugs or maids who had an accident would scream like that. It’s rare, but it’s not too surprising.
“Kyaaah!”
But when she heard her scream a second time, Cordelia felt something strange too. Did the bug fly?
“Kyaaa!”
And when she heard the third scream, she was sure. It’s not just an occasional happening. Isn’t that scream getting closer and closer? Cordelia couldn’t stand it any longer and opened her door to peek out at her. She opened her eyes wide as if she saw something she couldn’t see.
“Mikhail?”
Someone who shouldn’t be here…. I wore something similar to an opera mask to cover up, but that must have been Mikhail. You could fool others, but you couldn’t fool Cordelia’s eyes. A well-balanced body, a well-proportioned lower body, and even white skin. In fact, even if it wasn’t Cordelia, if it was a person with a good eye, it was a poor disguise that would make you wonder if it was Mikhail.
Cordelia rubbed her eyes, wondering if she was not seeing well. It sounds obvious, but the women’s dormitory is a forbidden area. Again, of course, Mikhail is a man. In other words, it is a story that Mikhail should not be here. Could this be a dream? She pinched her cheeks as hard as she could with her darling. As expected, it hurt.

Mikhail was here. Her third floor of her girls’ dorm, her many screams running like her tail, her Cordelia her running furiously at her. It’s not a dream, it’s reality. Yeah, if I ran around the girls’ dormitory wearing a perverted mask like that, I’d scream. It was only now that he seemed to know the identity of the screams coming from far away.
And finally, Cordelia and Mikhail’s eyes met through the mask. Her body trembled at the sight of her eyes so intense that they seemed to pierce her mask. I think I can understand the word eye light. Mikhail shouted.
“Cordelia! Stop!”
That idiot, Cordelia thought to herself. What’s the use of a mask if you’re going to make such a loud noise? Why don’t you advertise all over the place?
However, unlike his stupid behavior, his momentum was genuine.
“Stop!”
“What, what are you telling me to stop?!”
Degur. Cordelia, overwhelmed by Mikhail’s spirit, shuddered. She thoughtlessly dropped her medicine cabinet, which she kept holding in her hand. And before Hestia noticed it, Mikhail’s body moved faster. He picked up her dropped pillbox with great slickness, buoying up her run.
After a nice roll, he came to a perfect stop. He checked his medicine cabinet with trembling hands for a moment. He put it in his pocket, and then strode towards Cordelia.
His dimples trembled. Perhaps the eyebrows beyond the mask are also distorted to a degree that has never been seen before. Mikhail urged Cordelia with an unusually fierce expression.
“Cordelia! Are you crazy? What are you going to do with this medicine… !”
“What the hell is this….”
Cordelia looked around her with a blank expression. A hallway that has become a mess, the eyes of the people around you are full of eyes, you are not sure why but you are getting scolded anyway, Mikhail who is angry with his voice as if he knows why he is wearing a mask.
So much information came in so quickly that Cordelia’s head was on the verge of exploding. But once one thing was certain, it was necessary to get this monster in front of her eyes out somehow. If I leave this idiot as it is, I’ll probably get a suspension or, like that bastard Wilhelm, take a leave of absence because I’m embarrassed. Now, I can shamelessly pretend I’m not. It doesn’t look like Mikhail will be caught by the guards who rushed in anyway, so what if he insisted that it wasn’t?
“Okay, run away for now, I’ll listen to the story later.”
Cordelia whispered in a low voice that only he could hear, then collapsed to look as natural as possible. It was because of her calculation that if she pretended to know any more, she would be identified with Mikhail in an instant.
As for Mikhail, his head cooled off, so he looked around and scratched his cheek several times. Like a man who finally realized he was on the verge of being f*cked. He started running without looking back like an 8-ton truck with broken brakes.
“Are you okay?!”
Soon, after the assailant had disappeared, several students, who must have had some courage after grasping the situation, approached the fallen Cordelia. For now, I’ll have to pretend to be sick. Excessive smoke is only poison. Cordelia closed her eyes as if she was sleeping. She would rather be suspicious of making strange moaning noises or rolling around in pain. She never overconfided her own acting skills.
Wow!
After a while, the sound of breaking windows came from far away.
‘This is the third floor.’
I don’t know. It’s Mikhail, so it’ll be fine anyway. Worrying about him using your body is the most useless worry in the world. Cordelia closed her eyes again. If I lie down like this, someone will take me to the infirmary.
–
A secluded cafe near the school. It’s such a place where there are so few people that you wonder if it’s a serious business. Recently, I’ve been getting a lot of attention from other people, so I found a cafe with as few people as possible. I don’t think people should be close to a cafe and a cafe, but the owner was so good, he was only wiping the cup with a friendly smile.

My legs were trembling with anxiety, tension, and nervousness. When is Cordelia coming? She glared at her watch. Pretending to be as calm as possible, I kept my upper body upright, but I couldn’t stop shaking my legs. However, it is fortunate that there is no myth that shaking one’s legs brings good luck here. Maybe if I was really lucky, I might have become the most unlucky man in the world.
“Cordelia?”
Have you waited that long? Actually, when I checked the clock, I didn’t wait long. Finally, Cordelia carefully opened the door and entered. Maybe it’s because it’s in a remote place, so it seems like it took quite a while to find it. As she looked around in her cafe, she met her eyes with mine. As soon as she saw my face, she sighed heavily.
“Ugh.”
“Why do you sigh as soon as you see a person’s face?”
“Please be quiet.”
She growled. There was something that stung me, so I quietly kept my mouth shut. Cordelia slumped in her seat.
“Are you okay?”
“The person who knows best that he was feigning illness anyway.”
“Kuhm.”
She killed it. I was embarrassed and coughed blankly. Rumors that Cordelia was attacked by a gangster who broke into the girls’ dormitory quickly spread to all academy students. There were all kinds of rumors going around about who the assailant was.
“Why is the prime suspect talking like everyone else?”
“A prime suspect? Me?”
I raised my index finger and pointed at me with a blank look. Cordelia snorted with a puzzled expression.
“You’re not stupid, and if you’re going to scream like that, why the hell did you wear a mask? Mikhail There are many people who don’t know your voice, so this is it, otherwise the whole school would have known it? They always say I’m stupid, but when I see things like this, Mikhail, I think you’re even more stupid.”
“I am not… , no. I’m stupid And that metamorphosis is also me. So, how did this happen?”
To live and listen to Cordelia calling me an idiot. However, I couldn’t bear to refute it. To be honest, I was right about being stupid.
It’s kind of funny to deny any more about the dormitory case. I decided to admit that I was just an idiot, and that I was a pervert wearing a mask and breaking into the girls’ dormitory. Wearing a mask and running into the girls’ dormitory sounds like a pervert at first glance, but if you think closely, you don’t regret that action. But isn’t it shameful to be ashamed? I tried to deny it somehow, but I couldn’t fool Cordelia.
Instead, I decided to tell a completely different story. I took a white pill bottle out of my pocket and set it on the table. The fact that she had never taken this drug had been told in the infirmary. So, the reason why I took out the medicine bottle here was rather that it was time for her to interrogate me. Even if you are beaten with a cane, there is no end to it. Cordelia saw that I had pulled out her medicine cabinet and she crossed her arms.
“Because there are so many things I want to ask? First of all, where did you hear that I got the medicine?”
“Dear Lira….”
“Lira? He, the kidnapper?”
Cordelia remembered who Lyra was for a moment, then she opened her eyes. She seemed a little surprised by the unexpected appearance of her name.
“Well, you have friends. The last time I saw her, she had gotten a bit weird about using her body. I didn’t feel good about anything, so I asked if there was anything suspicious about it. But he said Cordelia saw you buying suspicious drugs….”
“Wait a minute.”
Cordelia cut me off. She put her head on her head and thought about this for a moment, then she asked, looking at me with a curious look on her face. It seems to be exceptionally sharp today.
“It seems like a summary that has been omitted a lot. In the end, if you put it very, very briefly, you thought I would just take the suspicious drug sold on the street without any doubt?”
I kept my mouth shut. To be honest, I didn’t have to make excuses saying that the situation was too unfortunate. After all, I had caused a commotion with useless worries, and Cordelia had to lie in bed unharmed because of it.
“How to see a real person!”
“No, to be honest, Cordelia, you are gullible… , No, it’s true that people are easily trusted. If the three of me, Hestia, and Lily say the medicine is good for us, we will take it or not.”
“Um… , that’s a bit of a worry… , No, what are you talking about?!”
Cordelia pondered for a moment, but then she realized that she had fallen into a trap. I clicked her tongue in regret.
“If you’re going to keep saying weird things, then leave?”
“Sorry. But I really thought it might be a threat or something like being forced to take medicine or something like that.”
At my words, Cordelia froze for a moment. Her whole body trembled, as if she remembered something frightening, and then her demeanor suddenly changed and she awkwardly thanked me.
“Kuh, keuh, thank you for your concern.”
“Why is he suddenly like this?”
“Oh just. Thank you!”
Why are you saying that all of a sudden? I was just bewildered.
