Chapter 69

Translator: Cyrus





“One more match!”

Surfania’s words echo in the room .
The cute little animal in Surfania is gone, along with her timidness . Instead, she’s pounding on the desk with her hands .
Having been promoted from predator to prey, she is chewing on Leon, who just won a game .

“Huh? You wanna go again?”
“Yes!”

Leon stops packing the board game and looks confused . Surfania doesn’t seem to care .

“I almost won that one…… I’ll win this time! One more!”
“But I have to continue my lessons with Mariwa-”
“Shut up . Do you have a problem with that?!”
“Uh, no . Let’s play again, milady . ”
“You weakling . ”

I was observing them silently, but I step out and hit Leon’s head lightly for giving in to Surfania so easily .
He covers the spot that I hit just now, and looks at me slightly embarrassed .





“Well I mean, there’s nothing to be gained from going against her . ”
“Don’t say something so pathetic . You’re a guy . ”
“I think it’s more gentlemanly to back down though . ”

He gives a surprisingly sound argument .
It’s true that nothing good will happen if he stands his ground, and it’s also the code of a gentleman to let ladies have their way . Perhaps Mariwa has taught him well in this case .
But now that Surfania has gotten used to Leon, it’s starting to get boring . I try to spice things up and egg him on .

“Go on, Leon . Hold your ground against Surfania and fight back!”
“I’m not your servant . I refuse to take part in this meaningless fight . ”
“Also, what’s with you, Chris? Do you have a problem?”
“Uh, not really?”

She glares sharply at me . I’m not afraid of her, I just don’t have a problem with her so I say that honestly .
I just wanted to entertain myself more . It was fun watching them before, but now it’s just a drag . I envy Mariwa for being able to feign ignorance by reading a book . Most likely she sees more value in watching their exchange than in continuing her lessons, as she doesn’t seem to have any intention of interfering .
Surfania is still dissatisfied from losing the board game . She gives Leon a sharp glare with a sullen face .

“First of all, Leon . I don’t like the color of your hair . It’s the same color as that of Chris! It annoys me!”
“Hey, why are you getting mad at me?”
“No, I’m the one who should be mad . What have you been doing to her all this time, Christina?”





That’s an unexpected accusation . I’ve only been teasing her a little, as always .
Leon stops arguing, and resets the board quietly .

“My first impression of you was that you were a gentle girl…… until just now……”

Never mind . He’s grumbling a lot .
I begin to pity him a little . I put my hand on his shoulder to comfort him .

“Hey, that’s not the worst . This girl acts like that to her family, you know? In fact, she puts on her worst behavior towards her sister . ”
“What? First Michelie and now Surfania . Are you trying to give me special training by ruining all my first impressions of ladies? Please stop trying to crush my dreams . ”
“Hm? Michelie’s an angel though . Just like your first impression of her, right?”
“Huh?”


Leon makes me speechless . How dare he as a commoner .
Does he have a problem with Michelie? It’s an absolute universal truth that she’s an angel . I don’t know why he seems to think otherwise, but I’ll show him the truth .

“Come on, Leon . Michelie’s an Archangel, you know? You probably fell in love with her at first sight, right?”
“Gh……! I- I don’t deny that, but Christina, you’re really not one to talk about wrong first impressions, you know?”
“It can’t be helped . Chris is blind when it comes to her sister . ”
“Ah, I can tell somehow . She’s been spoiling her since I met them two years ago . Maybe that explains my first impression of Michelie . ”




“Well, her sister, too…… in fact, I think she’s the evil one . ”

Leon and Surfania are suddenly agreeing with each other . What’s going on?
They’ve only met her once . They don’t know anything about her . Leon looks at me suddenly, perhaps because I was showing my dissatisfaction .

“Now that I think about it, Christina’s the only one who sticks to first impressions of herself . She’s really willful and thinks she’s the best . ”
“Of course . She’s easy to understand because she’s an idiot . ”

Surfania piles on the insults before I can say anything .

“Surfania . ”
“What?”
“I’m going home . ”
“Go ahead . ”

I thought her timidness would keep her from staying, but I didn’t expect that response .
Having her agree so easily makes me hurt a little inside .

“……Oh yeah, Leon . ”

I need to take out my frustration, so I give Leon a piece of advice before leaving .

“She’ll take it out on you if you let her win . ”
“……And what happens if I do win?”
“She’s a sore loser, so she’ll take it out on you anyway . ”
“Then what should I do?”

He clings to me for help, but I don’t care . He can figure it out himself .

“Now, Leon . You seem confident that you’ll win . I’ll make you eat those words . This time, it’s going to be my win . ”
“Wait, I didn’t say that-”

I stifle my laugh at the sight of Leon digging his own grave .
All in all, I’m glad I brought Surfania here . It’s good they’re having fun .

“Bye then . ……What are you going to do, Mariwa?”
“I shall remain here . I cannot leave the children here like this . ”

She’s staying here even though it’s only going to get boring . I’m impressed .

“Bringing Surfania here has brought some unexpected rewards, milady . I bid you good day . Please be careful on your way home, and when you get home, as well . ”
“Yeah, I kno- ……Hm?”

I tilt my head in response to Mariwa’s cryptic warning, and leave the church .
