by fnovelpiaLouis and Estee encounter Irene as soon as they open the door.
…Why were you loitering in front of the door?
What does the suspicious smile on Irene’s lips mean?
Estee could never have imagined that.
There was only one thing she was sure of.
If things continue like this… Irene will be suspected.
Just like Louis and her were talking about.
Esti flew away.
‘Ah, Irene is definitely not the culprit!!?’
-Thump thump. Slap!
“Ah, Irene~ Good morning!!!”
Estee ran towards Irene and hugged her tightly.
He kept blinking at Louis and signaled, ‘Anyway, it’s not her! Are you going to suspect your woman!?’
Louis’ eyes narrowed.
‘Come to think of it, he’s the most suspicious.’
The culprit, Louis guessed, was a common freshman.
Irene fit the bill exactly.
You can even save your own hair quite easily.
It was inevitable that Louis’ suspicions would turn to Irene.
Besides, Estee didn’t know…
Just now, Irene was oozing with reluctance.
Because the seal was briefly released at dawn, his nature of being hated by humans became even worse.
Even Louis felt a little uneasy for a moment.
What the heck, why are you in such a bad mood today?
So Louis, suspicious of her, immediately opened the window…
‘I’m sorry, Estee, but first, let’s aim the spear… .’
-Stop.
‘… … Wait a minute. Huh? Why did you become calm all of a sudden?’
He tried to summon a spear and aim it, but then hesitated.
It was clear that just a moment ago, even Louis had been giving off a repulsive vibe.
Now that Estee had pressed her cheek against Irene’s, there was no sign of discomfort.
It’s like pouring warm tea over cold ice to make it lukewarm.
As if her constitution was neutralized by Estee’s cuteness.
Thanks to you, real Louis.
I looked at Irene calmly once again.
-Duribun.
‘What are you looking at… Ah.’
The doubts soon disappeared.
It was thanks to Irene’s gaze that I saw what was at the end of her gaze.
-Obviously.
‘… That’s right. He liked women too. If he had that outfit, he’d definitely be dying to see her.’
A few dozen minutes ago, after Esti told me to leave.
Crow was waiting at the door as ordered.
I’m always ready to stand by. In my current attire.
…what she is wearing is an outfit that boldly reveals her side chest.
It was an outfit that would naturally catch the eye of Irene, who likes women.
‘Besides, judging by the fact that he doesn’t look at me at all… hmm. Is he innocent?’
How nice it was, Irene and Estee glanced at each other and only looked at the maid.
It didn’t seem like the culprit was trying to check if Louis was really under the spell or if he had really become a woman.
That’s why Louis was acquitted.
———Not even knowing that she was the real culprit.
‘I knew you’d be sad, so I came to console you, but you seem happier instead. That’s a relief.’
The main culprit who turned Louis into a woman. Irene.
She was half-confident that Louis would be the first to go to Estee.
Who would I tell that my gender suddenly changed? If they found out, they’d be treated as a fake.
So the only person Louis can reveal this to is Estee.
In Irene’s mind, Louis was a piece of trash who only looked for Estee when it was disadvantageous for him.
If anything goes beyond her expectations…
It looks like Estee is in a pretty good mood.
I thought you’d be a little sad since the man you loved suddenly became a woman. That’s why I came to comfort you this morning.
Esti’s gaze toward Louis remained unchanged.
Even though the man I love has become a woman.
Even right now, aren’t you blinking your eyes wildly and acting cute when you look at Louis?
So Irene concluded.
‘Is that what you call pansexuality? Pure love. Pure love.’
Estee loves Louis as a person.
Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman.
… If Estee knew, she would have thought it was friendship, not love, and it would have been a huge misunderstanding, but anyway.
Irene, feeling relieved, went into the snow with peace of mind.
-Obviously.
‘Wow… What kind of outfit is that? If someone grabs you by the collar, you can tell right away. Is that guy on my side? Should I try flirting with him?’
Irene didn’t even glance at Louis, but instead fixed her gaze on Crow’s chest.
It was possible because there was no intention of confirming that Louis had become a woman.
Because as a witch, she has absolute confidence in her magic.
I didn’t even think about checking the obvious result.
Louis also sighed in relief.
“Sigh.”
‘That girl too… No, that’s why Esti likes her. Well, this maid is pretty well-trained.’
Louis clears his doubts and glances at Crow.
Estee also let out a deep sigh.
“Oh my… .”
‘Louie. I’m grateful that you trust me, but… Irene is taller than Crow, so look at Irene!!’
Rather than a sigh of relief, it was closer to a sigh of regret that my younger brother was still dead in my heart and could not live.
On the other hand, Crow didn’t pay any attention to Ruina Irene’s gaze.
“Haaa… ♡”
‘Ah, Saintess. Your cheeks are so soft… ♡ I should have rubbed them last night, even if it meant risking my life… ♡’
Crow just focuses all his attention on Esti, who is glued to Irene.
I didn’t care about what other people thought.
And finally, Shepor.
Shepor was still lying in bed.
“Ugh… Ber… Nooong… ♡”
I dream of Esti, the cat-eared one, meowing and hugging me, saying that she is better than someone like Louis.
She was the happiest of the five.
* * *
Louis almost fired at our allies in the morning, but he escaped unharmed thanks to my desperate signal.
After making various preparations, we all headed to the classroom together.
Me, Louis, Irene, and Shepor.
And… Crow.
There are five of us like this.
“Estie, who is that person…?”
“Ahh. My exclusive maid. I think it would be good to bring one with you!”
Crow, wearing a maid outfit, bows her head slightly to Shepor.
The reason he made her go along in disguise was simple.
[Crow. There is a secret society so secretive that they avoid even our eyes. They used terrible magic yesterday.]
[The danger I felt at dawn was…]
[Probably. So, today, stay by my side and escort me. Acting like a maid.]
[Ahhh♡ It’s an honor to be the saint’s maid♡]
[Additionally. That guy over there… his name is Louis? Keep an eye out for any guys who are giving him suspicious looks.]
[According to the saint’s will♡]
If Louis’ words are true, the culprit will show up near Louis.
That’s why I asked Crow for help in the morning too.
It’s not that I don’t trust Louis’s instincts to beat even the most skilled professors…
It’s possible that his skills have declined due to the influence of becoming a woman. Crow was stronger than Louis to begin with.
I was planning to catch the culprit even if it meant using my strongest hand.
‘If we’re just women, we can’t do anything. Hurry up and turn back into men, little brother!’
-Thump thump.
After the Crow Maid employment incident was glossed over.
I raised my voice slightly.
As if to tell the other students to listen, they started to show up one by one on their way to school.
“Ahem, ahem! By the way, Louis, you’re so manly~.”
“Huh?”
“… Yes?”
“Yes?”
Me, who suddenly praised Louis’ manliness.
The three of them, excluding Crow, raised their voices as if they were shocked.
Even Crow looks at him like, ‘… that guy?’ This shows us what Louis’s usual perception is like.
But I didn’t care.
“Louis is so manly and cool! His voice is also nice. Right, Irene~?”
‘Okay, culprit. What do you think? Do you want to come out and check?’
I praised Louis for provoking the criminal.
If the culprit listened to me, he would definitely reveal himself immediately.
It was such a perfect performance.
-Whispering.
“Estee. Even though something like that happened yesterday… What is love, really.”
“… It seems like the princess really likes Prince Louis.”
Although Shepor and Irene were gossiping behind my back, it wasn’t a big deal.
Meanwhile, Louis, who had been dumbfounded for a moment, suddenly crumpled his expression.
-Whisper whisper.
“… Estee. I get your intentions, but don’t do it. ”
“Huh? Why? This is the perfect acting to draw out the culprit… .”
“What about perfection? I’ll take care of it, so please don’t step forward.”
Louis, who doesn’t know about my absolute dark acting.
I puffed out my cheeks in pain.
“… … Mww!!!”
‘Huh. See you later when I shower!!’
Day 3 of the Academy with three women and two female transfers.
That was the beginning.
* * *
… In conclusion, we failed to find the culprit.
Until today’s lectures are all over.
Louis acted like a man all day long, but no one paid any attention.
Crow also looked around diligently, but ended up hearing Louis say, “Isn’t that guy suspicious?”
If this is the only income I have today,
-Whisper.
“… Estee. Thanks to you, I survived. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve fainted, really. ”
“Huh. No problem.”
All I could say was that Louis came back from the bathroom and whispered to me thanking me.
I felt proud that I was raising a disciple with this taste.
Because, as soon as today’s lecture is over.
I ran to my teacher’s office.
“Hmm. Mutation magic that turns people into frogs… This isn’t fantasy magic, is it, Disciple? ”
“Yes! I have no one else to ask this question to besides you… Hehe. I only have you as my teacher~♡”
-Bubibubibubib.
“Huh. You too, disciple.”
The reason I came was to ask the Master to investigate the ‘magic of transformation’.
A master who had much wider connections and more magical knowledge than me was the perfect person for the investigation.
“I don’t think anyone but a witch would use such evil magic. Have you read fairy tales?”
‘…Do you think I can read fairy tales at this age?’
“Yes! I wonder if such magic really exists, and if so, how to solve it!”
“A fairy tale book? How cute~ Still, it’s good to have a high level of enthusiasm for learning. Okay. I’ll look into it and teach you.”
The teacher, whose favorability rating was already 100, was happy to grant my request.
Even though, during that time, my image became that of a ’20-year-old fool who reads fairy tales’…
If it’s to turn Louis back into a man.
I guess this is a necessary sacrifice.
In addition, I gave orders to Crow again.
‘It seems Louis’s guess was wrong… The culprit must be the pervert who is trying to marry Louis!!’
[Crow. This is an order. Use all the capabilities of the TS Brigade to find the secret society behind which the nobles are.]
[Yes. Are those all the features?]
[The Archmage will be involved. He can use the Archmage’s magic to turn people into frogs.]
[That’s enough of a clue. As the Saintess wills.]
The content of the directive was to find a group that could even use the ‘magic of transformation’.
Crow bowed his head.
-Choo-wook.
[…Can I also return and search?]
[No. You stay by my side and guard me for a while. Just in case.]
[Is that really okay!!?]
[Yeah. I’m sorry for making you do things like being a maid…]
[I am so happy that I can serve the saint by her side♡]
[Oh, yeah. Okay. If you like it.]
I felt a little bad about making Crow, the leader of the TS Brigade, wear a maid outfit.
It looks good, that’s good.
The eventful third day of the Academy has come to an end.
* * *
As time passed, one late night.
-Whisper.
“Louis. Come with me secretly. I’ll wash you. ”
“… You won’t die if you don’t wash for a day.”
“Unlike men, women have to wash up every day!! Do you want to get caught because of your smell!?”
“… … .”
“Okay, follow me quickly!!”
It was time to give Louis a bath.
