Chapter 44 (I'll do it, I'll Show it)
"Makina-san, do you have any business in the library ?"
"I came to meet Claris. well... if you were still there having a conversation with the three of us might be quite good, is what I thought."
Makina-san then glanced toward the two people who confronted each other.
"While the purpose of those two people over there seems to be only Kurohiko though..."
Kyurie-san and Cecil-san shows a puzzled expression.
While looking at the two people, Makina-san floats a smile calmly.
"However... you guys, I can't say anything other than your level is low~"
"Our level... is low ?"
Cecil-san asked Inquisitively.
"What do you mean by that ?"
*Fuu* Makina-san combed her hair with her hands.
"I heard the conversation until now see..."
Nn ?
I realized after she said those words.
Makina-san who had seemingly really appeared giving off the feeling of 『by chance』 .
However, because what she had said just now, it's as if that she had heard the exchange between Kyurie-san and Cecil-san.
If that is the case thenー
"It can't be, did the Headmistress also hide behind too ?"
"Of course..."
"O-of course is it ?"
"Yes...."
She said those words without minding any excuse at all, such refreshing answer.
When she answered like that... I can't say anything further in return.
Toward such Headmistress mocking Kyurie-san and Cecil-san, I was at a loss as to what words should I say.
Looking unconcerned, Makina-san then said.
"It seems the two of you tried to attract Kurohiko attention toward yourself, butー"
When she said that, Kyurie-san tried to say something.
However, she seems unable to utter her words.
Realize it, Makina-san continues talking while smiling.
"If you try to gain the opposite sex attention using remark diminishing each other thenー I can't help but say that you have a serious misunderstanding."
Somehow hearing that, Kyurie-san and Cecil-san body stiffened.
The two of them have a blank expression.
Makina-san then pointed toward the space between the two of them.
"Much less thinking of attracting the opposite sex by exposing such appearance isー outrageous "
At the same time as Makina-san said those words, the academy bell ring.
During the evening, the academy bell will rings.
When the bell finished ringing, the Headmistress lowered her hand.
"... Do you understand ? if you want to attract the opposite sex attention, it's not by speaking ill of each other, but by raising your own value. while inside concealing mutual antagonism with each other... thinking about how Kurohiko sees you, are you able to imagine it ?"
Kyurie-san and Cecil-san then looking at each other.
With small voice, Kyurie-son talked to Kyurie-san.
"Oi, the lady of Arclight family."
"... That way of calling me, can you do something about it ?"
"... Arclight."
"What is it, Velstein ?"
"That Headmistress... what is she ?"
"Someone whose father is the imperial court magician, the daughter of Lunusvia family. "
"That's not what I meant. what I mean is what kind of relation does she have to Kurohiko ?"
"Aah, about that eh... finding out Kurohiko capability of using the forbidden spell, I heard that the one who summoned him to this academy is the Headmistress."
Kyurie-san then looking at the Headmistress with a side glance.
"I see so that's how it is... Fuun, I express my gratitude."
"... Fufufu."
"What's wrong?"
Cecil-san turns toward Kyurie-san while showing a faint smile.
"At once, shall we putting it into practice?"
"Nn ? About what ?"
Kyurie-san looked at her blankly.
"Ugh..."
Cecil-san, her expression is as if saying "Damn it !" and stiffened.
"What do you mean by 『putting it into practice』 ?"
"I-It's nothing... that is... au.... y-your welcome !"
*Kaa* Cecil-san having her face flushed, ducked her head
"??"
Kyurie-san frowned while being puzzled.
.............................
Or rather, aren't you guys trying to talk while whispering, we can hear your voice you know...
Then, Makina-san opened her mouth as if waiting for the timing.
"I didn't say that you should not hold rivalry. However, but talking carelessly to your opponent in front of the person himself, don't you think the result won't be satisfying ? In short...do it peacefully understands ?"
Unn...
I also want the two of them to get along
That's whyー
"Nn ?"
Did Makina-san beckon me ?
I approached Makina-san while minding the two people who for some reason have grim expression.
However, even after I got close, Makina-san beckoning did not end.
Let alone that, she seems to be dissatisfied instead.
"........................"
Ah, so that's how it is...
I lowered my posture.
Makina-san then nodded as if saying "good".
Makina-san put her hand covering her lips and whispered to my ear.
"Cecil Arclight is the daughter of Arclight noble family and then that young lady named Kyurie, I'd looked at her test result too, even her magic power alone is considerably high. ... most likely she's your partner for the sacred ruin exploration isn't it ?"
"Yes, that's right..."
"That's why thinking about the future, you should treat them well. having many capable friends, the more the better."
"I-I see..."
While the two people line of sight observing toward our direction with all their might, again Makina-san whispered toward me.
"That's how it is, well... do your best. though I will help you in a various way, but in the end, it depends on yourself..."
"... Yes"
Inadvertently Makina-san breath which closes to my ear is very ticklish.
"And then, I'd want to hear about the information that you got from Claris today. ... well, don't worry about me, next, try to survive this current situation in some way or other."
And then, *Pon*, Makina-san walked toward the Library door after patting my shoulder.
Walk pass Kyurie-san and Cecil-san who looked awkward, Makina-san put her hand on the library door handle.
At that time, Makina-san throws a question toward Cecil-san.
"Miss Cecil... you said you're going to do sacred ruin exploration with three people right ?"
"... That's right."
"That number, I'm aware that it was the same with your onii-sama, however... You see I just thought of something. you, Kyurie Velstein, and then Kurohiko... isn't that three people ?"
"That is..."
"Fufufu, please don't worry about it. since it's just something that comes to my mind. well then, have a good day."
Like that, Makina-san entered the library and leave the three of us.
So, the first one who talked isー
"Umm, Kyurie-san, Cecil-san."
It was me.
*Fuu* I fixed my breath.
And then, I began talking.
"I, as expected, want the two of you to get along. since the Headmistress had said it, wait, that's not it...I mean, I'd always thought of such."
I turn my back.
"I, being in the same party or not is irrelevant, it would be great if the three of us get along well is what I had thought. it might be me pushing my selfishness. however, I, about the two of you... I'm unable to compare both of you, because, I-I like you !"
After I said that, I began to run.
I have the feeling that I heard someone calling me to stop, but I didn't stop and keep running toward my house.
While running, various thoughts run through my head.
"... or ratherー"
What am I saying... !
To think I'd said 『I like you』 ... Argh, geez !
Because I felt embarrassed, I've run away unconsciously !
Repeating taking a short breath while running, I hung my head down
I wonder, tomorrow, what kind of face should I make...
The sky who had turned dark finally spread in my view when I finally raise up my face.
................................
When I've arrived in the house, Mia-san is there.
"Ah, welcome back, Kurohiko-sama. ... emm, how is your day ?"
"... E ? Ah, umm... I might feel a little bit tired. since I run toward here for my exercise... hahaha..."
"Is that so ?... Ah, I've prepared the bath already, if you don't mind ! after that, I've also prepared the dinner !"
I wonder why...
I feel healed after seeing the cheerful figure of Mia-san.
"Thank you very much."
I went toward the bathroom after spoke words of thanks.
