Chapter 6
“ . . . And, Gainas-sama was so terrible . During the party he was distracted the entire time…”
Under Parfait’s dissatisfied gaze, Mary elegantly sipped her black tea and remarked, “Oh my, how dreadful . ”
The cafeteria was the same as usual today . Although the seasons had changed, today as always, Lillianne sat in a corner surrounded by her reverse harem and the envious gazes of other students . About half a year had passed since Lilianne, as well as Mary, had arrived, but the Elysiana Academy remained the same .
Still, there was some change, such as Parfait, who now openly displayed her outrage in front of Mary . Even so, there was no force behind her anger because of her cute appearance, and the tearful expression with which she glared at a specific corner of the cafeteria gave her a very innocent feeling . However, Mary would say that this was much better than when she was perpetually sobbing and cowering in fear .
"Gainas-sama and I are in a relationship arranged by our parents, but I truly do like him . "
“And yet …” murmuring, Parfait looked down .
While the other was occupied with being angry and feeling down, Mary immediately replied, "Indeed . ”
If you were to direct your gaze to a corner of the cafeteria without knowledge of Parfait’s thoughts on the matter, Lilianne and the men surrounding her seemed like they had built the perfect flower garden and were about to burst into song . In the game, there was even a hidden target, "the principal’s son", so the design of the game could only be said to be perfect . As she was recalling the list of characters in her memory, Mary lost track of the conversation . . . when suddenly Parfett called her name . Was it her inattention that caused Parfait to puff up her cheeks while staring gloomily at the reverse harem?
"What’s wrong?"
"Mary-sama, doesn’t it bother you?"
"Well, they do stand out . But isn't it you, not me, who cares about it?"
"I- I don't care at all! Whoever those people are, I have absolutely nothing to do with them!"
After saying that, Parfait turned away from her, and Mary gave a wry smile, "Of course . "
Mary Albert was a character who was sent away in the previous work, and she was now just an international student who was totally irrelevant to the plot . No matter who commanded the reverse harem or who took action to prevent their fall to ruin, Mary had no interest .
But Mary had to sigh tiredly because of Lilianne and Carina’s silent monitoring of her . Lilianne, the one at the center of controversy, was the queen of the reverse harem who all the female students of the Elysiana Academy were wary of . On the other hand, there was Carina, a well-rounded noble lady who was supported by all in the school . It went without saying that, Mary, the target of two such opposing people’s gazes, naturally felt uncomfortable .
However, Mary couldn’t out herself by explaining, "I'm not related to your game!" Instead, she had to ask, “What's the matter?”
Of course, they wouldn’t say this was a game from their previous life, so they smiled at her and said, "No, it’s nothing . "
What a meaningless interaction! If this were to be repeated over and over again, you couldn't help but feel disgusted .
Conversely, their vigilance towards Mary was just proof that they had been reincarnated with pre-existing memories .
But even without their wariness as proof, the way the male characters’ all quickly fell in love with Lilianne was just as if she knew the best methods to quickly and efficiently gain their affections . And as for Carina, her actions were indicative of her knowledge of her own downfall, since she noticeably strove to avoid it every day by increasing the numbers of her allies . Others noticing it was a matter of course . Rather, it made Mary wonder if they were even trying to hide it .
Mary Albert would be an unexpected person to them . The villain of the previous work that should have already retired from the stage, a person who had not met their expected downfall, and was instead on an impossible path for the game . They could not predict how she would move, or how she would affect them, and was irregular for them both .
However, Mary didn’t know why she was in Elysiana Academy either… In fact, Mary, who had been aiming for the northern land would also like to know why this had happened .
That's why Mary was tired of the suspicious eyes that kept asking her, "Why are you here?" and "Does she remember too?"
"Oh, it’s Carina and Lilianne, again . "
Suddenly, Parfait turned towards them .
"It is,” Mary replied, but kept her eyes on the book at hand . It wasn’t necessary to check, because they would either quickly avert their eyes, or return an insincere smile .
"Mary-sama, are you on good terms with the two of them? Somehow, they both seem to be looking at you . It makes me worried because you're the daughter of the Albert family . Carina-san seems to be focusing on diplomacy abroad, and for Lilianne, the power of the Albert family could rob her of a man . "
"Mary-sama, perhaps Gainus . . . !?"
