Why Are You Becoming a Villain Again?

Seriously? (2)

After saying goodbye to Kirsi, I joined the afternoon class.

Still guiding us was Sir Horslow.

He brought a chair to the training ground and sat down waiting for us to gather.

The comrades were returning one by one from their meal.

Judy Ice was also seen returning with her gear.

I waved my hand, but she averted her eyes.

I was satisfied with just not showing any signs of dislike.

I couldn’t figure out why I felt so close to her.

Maybe it’s because of one reason, really, that the family is a jerk.

Or maybe you’re excited about the person you’re going to make new friends with.

Just like Kirsi.

There was no feeling of guilt about being friendly with the Ice family.

Grandma Liana hated the Ice House… but that was her case.

Because she has her own history and memories, that feeling is established.

I wasn’t

I have never suffered from the Ice family.

Rather, it is a family that I liked when reading it as a novel.

Just because Grandma was vigilant and careful about the Ice Houses didn’t mean that hatred towards them could be nurtured.

She was sitting in one of the training grounds, waiting for class to begin.

But, I feel, the class is far from starting.

Not even half of the motives have been gathered yet.

Incredibly, now is the time to get to know each other.

Even if I looked around for a bit, I could see people crouching here and there, starting a conversation.

I also thought of this as an opportunity and approached Judy proudly.

“Did you eat?”

“…….ate.”

Fortunately, she answered.

“Where? I couldn’t find it when I looked for it.”

“I didn’t see it because I was having fun with my brother.”

I scratched my head shyly.

“Oh, did you see it?”

“The love we have for each other is extraordinary. I couldn’t even see the scoundrels of the family.”

Judy Ice looked at me.

The eyes were a little sad.

I asked.

“…you and your brothers-”

“Of course you can’t be like that. You are unique.”

“Well…”

“You said you were going to share your sadness, but you were doing well. Are you deceived?”

Feeling bad, Judy looks at me sharply.

But… it wasn’t a deception.

After a few years, I am expelled from my family.

It’s like drinking all the sweet water and throwing it away…

I don’t have much to say about it though.

“……It’s not a deception.”

I just casually told her.

I don’t know what my expression looked like.

But Judy sees my face,

didn’t say anything.

It was amazing.

Through a short conversation, the position of her within the family has been conveyed.

She didn’t seem to get along well with her brothers.

It didn’t seem like the children of the Ice family had bullied her.

What was her childhood like?

If the brothers couldn’t be friends,

Could someone else be a friend?

Or am I still a loner?

while delusional like that,

Judy said cautiously.

“…..sorry.”

“…yes?”

“……I said something wrong. You must have had your own problems.”

I feel relieved by her apology.

laughter came out.

Now I really want to get to know her.

I playfully shoved her on the shoulder.

Judy was pushed away and looked at me with surprised eyes.

I said it before she could say anything.

“But why do you keep talking nonsense?”

“……uh?”

“You didn’t come as soon as you became an adult, did you? I think I am older too.”

“…uh? That… so…”

Also, she’s funny.

Just by looking at my embarrassment, I didn’t know that my playfulness would stop.

“How old are you. I am 21 years old.”

“…..21 years old..?”

“I was waiting to go to school with my younger brothers.”

“……”

Judy Ice did not hesitate to answer.

Just by looking at her face, I could tell that she was younger than me.

It seems that I am not good at hiding my feelings.

“…..I’m sorry. mistake-“

“👑👑👑”

“?”

When she spoke again with respectful words, I couldn’t hold back my laughter any longer.

Contrary to his first impression, he seemed to have a cautious personality.

Apologizing and noticing.

“Keep talking nonsense. I’ll do it instead. Then it works. As a friend.”

“…friend… huh?”

“Because you’re talking nonsense. Let’s just have a conversation like this. yes?”

In a short time I tried to close the distance.

I didn’t even know how I could speak so comfortably.

But somehow, Judy did.

There are people who can say whatever they want to comfortably even if it’s the first time they meet.

I never thought that such a person would be the eldest daughter of the Ice family.

“…friend..”

Judy continued to ponder the word friend.

It seemed that the answer to the question that had been raised earlier was coming back.

She asked if she had any other friends.

Perhaps she had been lonely.

just felt it

“Are you just wiping your mouth about the stirrup adjustment in the morning?”

Once again, he draws her in with words.

Judy looked at me in surprise again.

Those eyes were full of poison.

“…I know what my friend should do…”

“Just talking. give each other strength this is how it should be Don’t think too hard.”

“……”

“Then let’s do this. Help each other whenever you need help during class. If we need to form a group, if we need a partner for training, or if we have a request, we’re looking for each other. What do you think?”

Judy wiggled her fingers.

I have done everything I have to say.

If you refuse here…

I’ll have to find another way, but I’ve made every effort to become friends.

Only her choice remains.

I was starting to get a little nervous about this.

“……”

But fortunately,

Judy nodded her head.

“……That’s good enough.”

I smiled.

“You have chosen well.”

“…I didn’t think I’d be friends with Freister…”

“You really don’t know what the world is. is not it?”

She adjusts her posture and looks back at Lord Horslow.

It looked like he was going to wait for class again.

But my words are not over yet.

“So, Judy. You didn’t tell me your age.”

“……..”

“How old are you.”

Also, Judy had something she wanted to keep bothering her.

“……”

“Speak quickly. we are friends now What if you don’t tell me your age?”

Judy showed me the back of the head.

“…19 years old…..”

Again, it was a quick reaction.

****

Afternoon classes were familiar exercises.

sword training.

It was also the field I was most confident in.

After all the other classmates, Judy, and Sir Hoslow all sweated passionately, today’s schedule came to an end.

It could be seen that he was also close with Judy.

Now she even asks me if I have any questions.

In particular, there were a lot of questions about posture.

Even in my eyes, Judy was still clumsy with her swordsmanship skills.

That’s not to say that Judy’s skills were a mess.

It’s just that there were a few things I’d like to tell you, after two more years.

After class, we stopped by the stables together to look after the horses.

‘Goldie’ was my laughing bell.

It was like a name Kirsi would give a doll when he was 10 years old.

I kept making fun of Judy with this.

Evening time was approaching.

After breaking up with Judy, I was on my way to find Asena and Kirsi.

I thought it would be good to end the day by talking about what happened today.

Still, it must have been a long time, and I also missed the twins because I didn’t see them for a day.

Especially Asena.

Because Asena was the last thing I saw in the morning.

It was not easy to navigate the wide academy. Asking questions here and there, looking at the signs that were erected, I walked towards the place where the political science department was.

As I walk, I suddenly remember the days I have lived in this world so far.

I think I was very lucky.

The fact that he possessed a commoner, but survived so smoothly.

It was the point that eventually led me to this academy.

The fact that he was able to regenerate Asena and Kirsi.

The setting sunset makes me emotional.

A familiar face appeared from afar.

A smile came out.

“Ahh…”

I was about to speak.

She wasn’t alone.

Asena,

daisy hexter,

And one woman and two men who still don’t know who they are.

They’re all wearing black clothes, not academy uniforms.

It was the student council.

In fact, the clothes look pretty cool.

They were having a heated conversation.

It wasn’t in the mood for me to disturb.

So instead of talking, I just quietly followed them.

It would be fun to surprise Asena after the story is over.

Asena was talking to a woman with red hair.

As I recall, that person was the student council president.

Lucille Hover, a sophomore.

Asena’s voice resounds.

“……Please don’t ask me, Chairman. Inconvenient.”

“Why, Asena? everyone talked talk quickly-”

“- I don’t like it,”

For a moment, my body is startled by the sharp voice.

“I said. Don’t you know that it’s rude to ask about family affairs carelessly?”

I knew Asena was acting coldly and unassumingly, but it was the first time I’d seen him say something like that.

Daisy Hexter came over to Asena’s side and gently grabbed her by the shoulder, as if to calm her down.

I want to step forward, so I increase my walking speed.

If it’s a fight, you have to dry it.

“…and in the first place, I had an immortal childhood. There is no story to share.”

And at the next words, my legs stiffened.

It was as if a hand came out of the floor and grabbed my ankle.

I could tell even if I didn’t want to understand the context.

Asena was complaining that her past was not happy.

I don’t know why these words came out… but it was a story related to me.

……Well.

I see.

Something was a little sad.

I didn’t mean to say that I was happy thanks to you, but…

The story of not having good memories takes away my strength.

I knew the wounds of losing my parents were great, but I thought that they were still with me and healed. was that my mistake

Have you been hiding it? Shame on the proud past.

“You seem to have grown up very well for something like that, don’t you? He is hard to express his emotions, but he has already blended well with the student council, and at first glance, he seems to be getting along well with his younger brother. Who was it.. that..”

Lucille Hover lifts Asena as if trying to relieve the hardening atmosphere.

“Are you Kir?”

Daisy Hexter also tried to change the mood to match Lucille Hover’s breathing.

Instead of Asena, she answered and continued the conversation.

“Ah yes. He is. He seems to have grown up the same way.”

Daisy began praising Kirsey with her characteristic soft voice at Lucille Hover’s words.

“Right. Kirsey-sama was also a very kind person. Talk to me first, who is awkward. We are already friends.”

“…Kirsi is a bright child.”

Asena also strikes back with a blunt pitch.

Fortunately, Asena seemed to be starting to calm down.

Then Daisy snapped her fingers as if she remembered something.

“ah! Come to think of it, didn’t Asena-sama have a brother too?”

My body trembled and trembled.

Looking at Asena, her head, which had been straight, was also fixed on Daisy Hexter.

“I don’t know because I haven’t seen him… What kind of person are you? My name is Kay-”

“-He is.”

In an instant, the atmosphere is subdued by Asena.

In a cold but loud voice, he exhales straight without shaking.

“Don’t ask, Daisy Hexter.”

Those words that sound like a warning.

It was so cold that even my chest felt a chill.

“….yes?”

Confused, Daisy muttered.

She wasn’t the only one upset.

I couldn’t understand either.

talking about me,

Why are you reacting like that?

Where do the little smiles you always show me go, and do they only make such serious and cold faces?

People become more honest behind the scenes.

You can freely spit out emotions and words that you have not been able to say before.

Because I can say things that are deep in my heart that I couldn’t because of the other person’s feelings and relationships.

So I don’t want to believe it, but Asena, who talks about me in a place where I am not, approaches me more honestly and honestly than ever.

It was just a feeling.

I thought I would regret staying here.

I turned around.

Let’s postpone meeting Asena until later.

“He’s not even a Fryster. There is no reason for you to care.”

You can look away from what you don’t want to see, but what you don’t want to hear doesn’t mean you can’t hear it.

As I was running away, a dagger flew into my back at an unavoidable speed.

“It’s just someone. Please don’t think of him as my family.”

I did not know that my Asena, who poured all her love, would say such a thing behind me.

Am I the only one who thought of you as a family member?

The smiles you showed me and the aegyo towards me. The skinship we shared our hearts and memories of years.

Was it all a mirage that had only form and no substance?

Even at this moment when I don’t think my mood will hit the bottom anymore, Asena’s words don’t seem to stop.

“After two years, that person will be expelled from the family. It’s adoption. It’s not like there was blood anyway.”

I never thought my heart could break so quickly.

Facts that I didn’t want to hear are heard too quickly, too suddenly.

I looked back at Asena.

It was hard to believe she was saying this.

I felt like I had to look at her expression.

Asena’s side profile is visible.

She has a stiff expression.

There is not an inch of shaking, not an inch of hesitation.

“…I never once thought of him as my brother.”

Those shocking words pierced my heart.
