“I think I did this wrong.”

Amelia, who was lost in thought for a moment in the carriage on the way back, said that.

“Huh?”

“Adele’s father.”

“Ah… … .”

“We just used Adele’s house even though we knew she would come home late.”

“Yes… … .”

Well, that happens.

Actually, it’s not that I never had that kind of experience when I was young. I remember going to a friend’s house when my parents were late and playing with them, and then running away when my parents came home.

That’s pretty much what I did when I went to Adele’s house.

If the story is from when I was very young and didn’t know anything, it might not be a big problem. At that time, it was just fun to play with friends until late.

But now we are… … I know all about that.

“Maybe I was too thoughtless.”

Amelia was the first to point out the thought that came to my mind.

“… … Sorry. There was no need for you to make that expression.”

Amelia smiled awkwardly when she saw my slightly serious expression.

“No, it’s my fault that we meet Adele periodically.”

“But I was still able to become friends with the main character of the novel. I was the one who benefited.”

Although Amelia answered with a smile, she couldn’t help but still feel a little frustrated.

“Anyway.”

Perhaps thinking that if the story continued in that direction, the atmosphere in the carriage would only become heavier, Amelia turned her horse’s head slightly.

“If you’ve read the original work, you’d know that Adele’s father has quite good skills even in the work, right?”

“Yes.”

I nodded.

In the novel, Amelia helps Adele’s father. I don’t think it was a very important story. It was a story that only progressed after Amelia became very close to Adele, and Amelia, who happened to know what Adele’s father was doing, solved the problem. The idea was to ‘solve it’ and suggest something new.

For your information, it seems that there is no story at all in the original work. Rather, it just ends with Adele getting married to a good place and no longer having to work hard.

Well, in these types of novels, the presence of ‘parents’ does not appear very often.

“Adele’s father… … You’re teaching the son of a noble family with an extremely bad personality. That’s why you didn’t even have time to teach your daughter, Adele, swordsmanship.”

“There may be more convenient jobs than that, but most of them are done on a case-by-case basis, so they are less stable, and the money you receive is less than what you receive from the nobleman. If you want to maintain your reputation as a nobleman, you will eventually have no choice but to live in that house and be oppressed.◦# ◦

Amelia added a supplementary explanation to my words.

… … Moreover, after finding out that he had a daughter like Adele, he even tried to approach her.

For your information, the reason such a thing did not happen in the original work is because there was a ‘man’ next to Adele. Moreover, the position of the ‘man’ was not low enough for the nobleman to take his place.

To the crown prince, to the crown prince, to the lord of the magic tower… … Even though the male writer, Brother Harvey, was similar in terms of noble class, he cannot be compared to his handsome, tall, and strong brother. And if you look at the family lineage, although he is the same male writer, his status is different. If you look at it from afar, the male writer Delki Si has royal blood. Because it was a family line that lasted forever.

However, in the novel I read, not the original, the story is a little different.

It is not that homosexuality does not exist in this world. Considering that Adele and Amelia were connected, it is a concept that definitely exists.

However, perhaps because of the historical background, most people cannot even imagine it.

Well, if you go deeper, it may be written as a kind of sin in the religious scriptures of this world, but in any case, no one would think that it is a ‘homosexual group’ when they see a group of noble women gathered together. Even if the two meet often and form friendships. .

And, in the novel I read, Adele becomes rapidly friendly with Amelia, who is not the main character.

In other words, Adele is a rare aristocrat who is friendly with the son of a grand duke.

Just looking at the family’s position, she can be compared to a male writer, and Adele is also beautiful and has a good body.

From a man’s point of view, this would be a mouth-watering opponent.

That’s why the man tried to approach Adele—

—No, wait a minute.

Then, isn’t there a high possibility that Adele is already being approached in this world?

It’s just that Diane and I are added, but Adele doesn’t have a fiancé yet, and there are no rumors going around that she has a crush on someone.

If the value had actually increased, wouldn’t it have increased?

“Elsie?”

Amelia suddenly called out to me worriedly as I closed my mouth and was lost in thought.

“What’s wrong?”

“Amelia.”

“Huh?”

“You haven’t given all the kids at home to Becky yet, right?”

The ‘children’ I mentioned were four sparrows.

“Yes. I only sent one so far. For communication purposes.”

“… … It seems like the number of places I have to send it to has increased.”

Amelia blinked as she looked at me speaking with a serious expression.

*

So, we sent all the sparrows out.

In fact, unlike drones, sparrows are living creatures, so it is impossible to accurately understand the situation by sending only sparrows.

Even if I had the abilities of a lead druid, it was impossible to share the mind or vision.

It wasn’t a big problem as all I had to do was tie Becky’s message to Sparrow and send it to her leg.

Tok, tok.

In fact, the next morning, the sparrow that flew into the window had a small note tied to its leg.

No, it’s more like a white ribbon than a note.

When I heard the sound of a sparrow tapping on the window with its beak, I got up, rubbed my eyes, and took off the blanket, but my cheeks turned slightly red when I smelled Amelia’s scent rising from inside the blanket.

“Ugh.”

Amelia was still hugging my waist and burying her face in my chest.

“Amelia.”

I called softly and shook Amelia’s shoulder, but Amelia held me tightly and did not let me go.

“… … .”

In the end, I gave up trying to wake Amelia up and slowly climbed onto the bed.

Amelia, who hugged me, did not follow me by hanging completely, but instead went down and down as my body went up.

“… … Tsk.”

When Amelia’s cheek touched my belly button, I also started shaking.

If you ask me if I’ve ever had another person’s face on my lower stomach, I’d say absolutely not. Because I’ve never had a relationship with anyone to begin with.

Moreover, the arm that was wrapped around my waist has almost come down, so now it feels like it’s hugging my butt rather than my waist—

Tok, tok.

I heard the sound of hitting the window again.

Biting my lip slightly, I climbed a little higher and finally opened the window.

“Tweet.”

The sparrow that came in through the slightly open window looked at the two of us and tilted its head.

… … As I live, I feel ashamed of sparrows.

At least I should be thankful that Mapori is still sleeping soundly.

When I picked up some of the millet I had prepared at the bedside and placed it in front of the sparrow, the sparrow stretched out one leg towards me.

I carefully unwrapped the drawing and read its contents.

[He got scolded by Diane Maid. He didn’t dry his hair. It’s because he’s not worthy of a nobleman.

But their relationship seems to be good.]

As I was barely able to decipher the letters scribbled on the thin ribbon, I saw something from my lower abdomen.

“Ugh… … .”

I heard a voice.

And the sound made my stomach tremble strangely, and I blushed once again.

“… … Elsie?”

The sunlight coming through the curtains was dazzling, so Amelia barely woke up and opened her eyes little by little.

“… … Oh!?”

When he finally realized which part he was holding tightly, he was so shocked that he withdrew his hand.

hmm… … .

When asked which one, I felt a little disappointed.

It’s okay if we stick around a little more.

“Oh, hey, sorry!”

Usually, when Amelia woke up with her arms around me, she would look up at me with her chin on my chest and calmly say good morning, but the lower half of her body seemed to be a slightly different story.

“It’s okay. It’s not like that on my bare body.”

Because I was wearing all my clothes properly.

Although the fabric was thin.

Even though it was soaked with sweat and stuck to me.

“Ugh… … .”

Well, still, I have to say that it’s good to see Amelia so embarrassed after a long time.

It was a shame that I didn’t have a chance to touch our lips last night, but I think this is enough business.

“Rather than that, would you like to look at this?”

When I showed her the ribbon I was holding, Amelia covered her face with one hand and barely took it with her other hand.

And after reading it with one eye,

“Definitely, Diane doesn’t seem to get much attention from her parents.”

It was a somewhat cold-hearted assessment.
