I'm surprised that Claire is so capable.

　Clutching the picture in my trembling hands, I'm excited to see Livia in her underwear.

'He's more capable than you,'

''I can't help but doubt the master's humanity to revise his assessment to that extent. Oops, I'm sorry. It was a questionable human nature to begin with.''

'I love myself for that, though. Okay, I'll make this picture a good luck charm.

　I'm in my new uniform, and I put away the pictures in the living room of my house for safekeeping.

　I love the picture of me with my butt sticking out.

　I like the pose where I can't tell if I'm being a screw-up or inviting a guy to join me.

'Well, let's hear the report, shall we?

　I check the information Luxion has gathered.

　The reason for checking the information early in the morning is because today is the first day of the new school year.

　Luxion also took some time to find out.

''The current candidates are these few.

　Apparently there are a lot of blonde twintails, but not many students have pink mixed in with them.

　But all the girls were different.

　They weren't particularly eye-catching beauties.

''........I feel like every girl is different.

'I agree with you. It's a little out of condition, but how about this one?'

　Looking at the images floating around me, I saw a girl with her pale pink hair in a side ponytail.

'It's atmospheric. Is that her?''

　The hair is different, but it wouldn't be the same every day like in the game.

　The hair color would be acceptable.

I'd better check with Marie.

Yes, sir.

　I watch Luxion walk out the window of the house and I drink my tea.

'....Good tea leaves. It's only expensive.

　Since it was the first day of the new school year, I was excited to prepare a good cup of tea today.

　I felt good since this morning.

◇

　It had been a noisy morning in the mansion of Marie and her friends.

'Do you know my jacket?'

Who is this?　Who took the liberty of drinking my tea?

Have you seen my socks?

Hey, what's for dinner?

　Julius searched for his jacket, and Zilk was a little angry that he didn't have the tea he'd prepared. Brad is looking around for socks, and Greg is in his pajamas, stretching absent-mindedly, waiting for his breakfast.

　Marie is in her apron, holding a frying pan.

'Come on guys, breakfast!　Come on, just get it on the table!

　A fried egg and bacon on toast.

　Kyle brings the plate to the table and Greg quickly bites into it.

　Marie looks around the room.

'Huh?　What about Chris?

　Julius was looking out the window.

'He's a bare minimum in the morning. He's got a lot of spunk today.'

　Marie was getting angry at the people around her who were saying what a serious person she was.

'Call me back at once and let me take a shower!　It's the first day of school!　There's no way I'm late or anything!　The carriages are coming too, so you all need to get ready.

　The mansion of Marie and her friends was busy in the morning.

　They were busy mainly taking care of the five of them.

　Luxion, who had been watching the scene from outside the window, turned and headed back down to Leon.

''It doesn't look like it's going to be possible right now.''

　Someone had stained his shirt, and Marie sounded like she was going crazy.

◇

　The school I came to on a carriage.

　The atmosphere was quite different from that of the Holfaat Kingdom.

　While on the way to the school, I often see students in their uniforms.

　It was the first time since my previous life that I had seen a mundane schooling scene.

　In the kingdom, there was a student dormitory in the school grounds, so the atmosphere is a bit different.

　The same goes for the buildings.

　The design is different, making me think that it's still foreign.

''Aren't the girls in the ... Republic wonderful?''

　We were ushered in by the staff, and as we passed the students, they would greet us.

　It was rare for a girl to say hello to us in the kingdom's school.

　I didn't expect to be able to see the difference in cultural level in this place.

　However, it seems that the staff misunderstood what I said.

He said, "I see you like it. However, please don't touch it. Some of them are noble ladies, so it will be an international issue.

　If you look at Marie following behind me, she looks tired from the morning.

　Kara was accompanying her.

'Marie-sama, are you alright?'

"I told you. I told you to hurry up and get ready for this one.

　Kyle is not on the side of Marie, who is buzzing and complaining.

　He was not a student, but a servant - a slave to be precise.

　They were not allowed to enter the academy.

　Contrary to the exhausted Marier, Julius and the others are in good spirits.

''It's different from the kingdom, after all. It's different in terms of atmosphere.''

　I could go on and on about the differences.

　However, there are many similarities between the two.

　Is this because this otome game world is modeled after a Japanese school?

　As the eight of us staggered around, we were led to a large building.

　They said they were going to introduce us at the opening ceremony.

　The staff will introduce us at the opening ceremony.

Julius will introduce himself as our representative at the opening ceremony.

　

　I guess Julius knows about it, or he's prepared the manuscript.

　This is the kind of place where there is no slack.

◇

　Well, the international students were introduced at the opening ceremony....

　There wasn't anything special about it.

　I looked for a girl who looks like the main character, but if it's just for looks, there's a good amount of beautiful girls.

　I couldn't find them.

　And then, after the opening ceremony was over, we were ushered into class.

Mr. Brad, can I ask you about your hobbies and what you like to do?
Mr. Brad, you're a baronet, aren't you?
It's great. Do you have a girlfriend?
You're an idiot. Of course you have a fiancée.

　The purple - different, Brad's guy who has been sorted into the same class is asking a lot of questions.

　He seems to be very popular with the girls in the class, probably because his usual uselessness is invisible to them.

　Brad is a narcissist, but he's beautiful when he's not talking.

'Good grief. I have a potential fiancé. I'm thinking of marrying her. His hobby is reading.

　The girls in the class are cackling because of the safe answers.

　I couldn't help but feel that I missed a certain feverish look from the boys in the classroom.

　I felt like an enormous amount of heat of jealousy was bringing the boys together.

　Me?

　I'm not going to miss my two fiancées.

　Even if they didn't ask me a single question from earlier.

　I told them that I had the rank of count, but the girls' popularity was focused on Brad.

　There are about thirty students in the classroom.

　Unlike the kingdom, the classroom scene felt more like a high school in a previous life.

　The kingdom was a large classroom, and the classroom scene was reminiscent of a university.

　I can hear the boys' voices.

''Screw you.''
A kingdom is a low culture level country, right?
'The girls shaking their asses at the aristocrats over there are disgusting, too.

　I feel clearly disrespected.

　When the homeroom teacher walked into the classroom, the students were seated.

'Yes, folks. Let's get homeroom started, shall we?

　The male teacher, whose tone was inexplicably feminine, was wearing a thin layer of makeup.

'I understand how unusual it is to have an international student, but you can't embarrass them. Mr. Leon, Mr. Brad, if you have any problems, you can talk to me about it.

　.... very good teacher.

　The shirt that looks like it's about to open up at the chest reveals the shape of his pectoral muscles.

　You can see from his sturdy biceps that he's worked out a lot.

　His jaw is cracked, and his thick beard is shaved but looks blue.

　His face was deeply chiseled - the fact that such a person had a female tone of voice made him more of a character.

　She - it wasn't, he's [Clément] teacher.

　The surrounding classmates were in a delicate mood.

''Clément-sensei is the homeroom teacher?''
He's a nice guy.
'Yeah, but there are times when my back feels oddly creepy.

　It was the boys who testified that their backs were shaking.

　.... nothing. Yes, I tell myself, it will be fine.

　Dr. Clement claps his hands.

'Okay, I'll tell you all about this school year. I'll explain it to you carefully, since I have two pretty boys who are international students.

　For a moment, I thought Brad jerked up and shuddered.

　I guess I can look forward to class with a sense of urgency in the future.

◇

　Lunch break.

　I slipped out of the classroom and met up with Marie, who had recovered somewhat from the morning.

　We meet secretly in the courtyard to hide, and we talk with Luxion around the two of us.

　In front of the images and videos projected in the air, Marie was puzzled.

''........Maybe it's this girl?

　I look at the girl who pointed at me.

'You don't have blonde hair, you have pink hair. And it's not even in a twintail, it's in a side ponytail.'

　Marie is also troubled.

'From the vibe and appearance, she's the only girl I can think of. And I think the other girls are different.''

　Marie is the only person who knows the protagonist.

　I can't make that decision for you.

'There's no chance he's not enrolled, is there?

The continent where the academy is located is the territory of the Lespinus family. The academy is also run by the Respinus family, and they are training the next generation of young people or something like that... well, there are people in the academy who are watching over the main character, so they would definitely have admitted her to the academy. In the story of the game, though.

　Luxion plays a new video.

'This is the footage we got this morning.

　There was a boy there, pretending to look plain, with his blue silky hair stretched to his shoulders.

　He's having a pleasant conversation with a pink-haired girl.

　Marie brings her face to the image.

'Emile!　Well, I don't know what his middle name is or his last name, but this guy is Emile!　Emile, the boy who is the target of the attack, Emile the Anpai!

　That's what they call it.

"Antai?

There were a lot of changes in the second one, and the boys I was trying to attack were just so quirky.

"More than Julius and his friends?

　Honestly, I thought those guys were too quirky too, but you tried to make them more distinctive?

Yeah. And Emile's feature is plain!

　...Is that a feature?

　As for the characterization, it's like what kind of unassuming character?

　Honestly, he looks like a guy who has more features than I do.

　Blue hair is normal in this world, but it's very uncomfortable in my eyes.

'You're plain, so it's a cheap shot.'

'What?　It's not. It's a cheap shot because of the ease of attack and the few troublesome events that are there and so many other things. If you're having trouble attacking, just switch to Emile and you're sure to clear the game.

　Hey, I'm starting to feel sorry for Emile.

　Emile seems to be smiling kindly in the video, but I'm crying when I think of the girls - and the players - calling him a cheap shot, etc.

　But now it's clear.

In short, Emile's girlfriend is the main character, right?

'Maybe. In the scene with the dress, the main character put it in a side ponytail and it looks a lot like it. In the first place, it's so normal to change your hair style...

　It's the difference between the game and reality.

　Luxion adds.

''Her name is [Lelia Beltre]. As Marie said, various falsifications were found during the admission process. You are hiding your real name. And it seems that it was before you started dating the other man. The other man's name is [Emile Raz Previn]. He comes from a noble class.'

　Marie nodded repeatedly.

'Definitely!　This is the main character!　I'm pretty sure the last name you're hiding is Lespinus.

　I let out a sigh of relief.

'Then we're good to go. As long as things go on with Emile, it will be a happy ending. I suppose our purpose in studying abroad has been accomplished.

　I stand tall.

　I've been worrying about a lot of things, but I feel like I've been shrugged off.

'You didn't have to wait until we got here.

　Marie also has one major problem taken care of, and she puts her hand on her right shoulder and keeps it around her right arm.

　A stiff shoulder?

Yeah. Now I can enjoy my time abroad. More importantly, my brother I have a serious problem.

What?

"I need to borrow some money.

　I looked at Marie's face, which was about to cry, and I snickered at her.

'I don't like it. I know you don't have much trouble making a living.'

'No!　I need money apart from the cost of living!

Apply to the embassy. They'll give you the money, right?　I'm paying my own way.

　Julius is a prince, even if he's rotten.

　The Kingdom of Horfath has prepared the money needed, including the cost of studying abroad and so on.

　But since I said I wanted to study abroad on my own, I had to prepare the expenses myself.

''My brother's stingy!　I can't even buy food and drink. In the first place, I've upset the queen, so I'm only on a budget or just barely able to afford it!

'You're lucky you didn't have to do something stupid. You don't have to come over here to study abroad and you're feeling down.

　On the other hand, if you have problems, you'll be motivated to work harder, but if there's nothing wrong with you, I don't know what you're studying abroad for.

'I can't touch a woman, and I can't be bothered to study. What am I going to do now?

My brother, you're too bad you can't go after girls.

'Don't be ridiculous. I talked to a bunch of girls in the kingdom.

That's why you're married. You don't do anything if you don't have to, that's not why you're my brother.

　Luxion nodded repeatedly.

''By the way, Master, is it correct that we will continue to determine Lelia as a target and plan to investigate?''

You're in charge. Let me know if you ever have a problem with Emile. I will do everything in my power to support you.

　Me, the guy who helps couples form for the world I'm not the only one like this.

Brother, I need some money!

Shut up. You paid for the cleanup, didn't you?

'You won't last a year on that money!　I've got some business to attend to, so do me a favor~

　Am I naive for giving a small amount of money out of my wallet because I was annoyed with Marie who was hanging on to me?
