After dropping Ange off and returning to my room in the dormitory, I fall straight onto my back on the bed.
Looking up at the ceiling, Luxion reports.
[A report from Creare. Angelica was comforted by Livia and went to sleep. Livia seems to be very angry with Master when she heard the result.]
“――What am I supposed to do?” What went wrong?
I knew Ange was working hard for me and I wanted to tell her not to push too hard today.
No need to fight with her parents for me.
That is the last line, or rather not a solution.
“We didn’t know each other well enough. It’s true that we’ve only been able to get this far because of momentum. If she had seen a shallow person like me up close, she might have become disillusioned.”
[For Master, you are able to self-evaluate. But in this case, there is another problem.] “Another?”
[Values. Both Master and Marie have too strong values from your previous lives. From the information Creare has obtained, I would guess that Angelica wanted to be the one to support the Master]
“I still get plenty of support from her.”
She’s a great woman who’s too good for me.
I understand that, so I didn’t want her pushing herself too hard.
[I think Angelica overestimates Master. As a hero who rose to the rank of duke in his own lifetime, Angelica must have been under a lot of pressure to be your partner. She has been working hard to achieve this, and it must be upsetting for her to be told that all of her efforts are in vain?]
“I don’t understand”
[Angelica stood around to make sure Master was not taken advantage of by the Redgrave family. That’s not a feat one would do at that age.]
“I don’t need the Redgrave family’s help or anything. As long as I have Ange.”
“Will Angelica be convinced by that?”
When I shut up, Luxion talks about values.
[It is different from the times Master lived in your previous life. This world has its own rules. It is arrogant to easily deny them based on Master’s standards.]
For me, who has memories of a previous life, this world has too many different values to begin with.
Even the noble society was not familiar to me in my previous life.
I’ve tried not to look at it, keeping it away from me because it’s troublesome, but I’m rising too high and I can’t ignore it.
However, there is nothing I can do about the difference in values.
It reminds me of a couple who often divorced in a previous life because of differences in values.
“The difference in values is fatal. It would be better to break off the engagement and set Ange free――”
After uttering that much, I remembered Julius’ words.
If I betray her, Ange won’t be able to recover.
“I wonder if I should do it according to Ange?”
[Would Master fit in with the noble society of this world?]
“I can’t. But I can at least act one. ――I’ll show up at the Redgrave family mansion sometime.”
I should at least be able to mend it.
That’s how I always overcame problems.
