T/N: Today I’d like to give a huge thank you to my Cookie Donor, Sarah! Thanks to you I’m gonna splurge and get some takeout with my friends after I upload this chapter 😀
I was safely able to enter the academy but…. isn’t this school just too big?
Wouldn’t it have been fine even if it wasn’t this huge? What were they thinking?? That they had to build extravagantly because it’s a school that will be attended by aristocrats?
No matter how I look at it, this place is just uselessly big. I’m sure I walked straight in the direction of the one of the school buildings, but somehow I ended up lost in a forest! And why is there even a forest within the school grounds anyway?
Ahh, this might just end up being a wild goose chase too. Because, even if I somehow manage to run into the heroine, will I even recognize her? The game was always portrayed from the heroine’s point of view so, honestly, I’m not even sure what she looks like.
And, that’s right! I haven’t even come up with what I’m going to say to her if I do manage to meet her! What sort of salutation would be good in this sort of situation? It definitely should at least have malicious undertones….
Wait, is it weird to show such hostility right from our first meeting? I ended up coming to see the heroine on impulse, but I didn’t really have a good reason… Maybe this was a bad idea after all?
“Are you lost?”
Yes, that’s right, I’m lost…..
I turn to look in the direction of the person who called out to me.
“Are you okay?” the girl continues in her sweet, soprano voice as she comes over to me.
…..Goodness, that’s an impressive heroine aura she’s got going on.
She’s got lovely, huge, emerald green eyes and luscious black hair just like mine….
To think that we’d have the same hair color. What were these game creators thinking!? Giving the heroine and the villainess the same color hair!
…..Though, I still haven’t confirmed that she is actually the heroine yet.
“Hey, what’s your name?”
Treating me like a kid….. Though I guess that’s to be expected, I am only 10 years old after all. But she’s only 15! She’s still a child herself.
“Before asking someone’s name, shouldn’t you give your own first?” I quip making the girl’s eyes go wide. She had called out to me out of concern, so she probably wasn’t expecting that sort of cheeky remark from me.
“Ah, of course. Sorry. My name is Liz. Liz Cather. Nice to meet you.”
Is she just super generous and soft-hearted? Without showing any sort of displeasure, she just kindly told me her name.
…Nice. Against this sort of girl, my wickedness will stand out even more.
“I’m Alicia Williams. I don’t believe I’ve heard of the Cather family before…?”
“Ah, that’s because I’m not a noble.”
And that confirms it. Without a doubt, Liz Cather is the heroine!
We’ve finally met. Do you realize how much I’ve been waiting for this day?
“So, where are you trying to go, Alicia-chan?”
Alicia-chan…?
How overly familiar. I would appreciate it if you would consider your social status before you speak.
….Is what I’d like to say, but unfortunately I didn’t become a member of the nobility through my own strength.
So I definitely can’t say something like that to Liz who was able to enroll in the magic academy as a scholarship student through only her own abilities despite being a commoner.
“I…..”
Where do I want to go? I’ve already achieved my goal for today…. Since I was able to meet Liz and all. I guess the only thing left to do is be caught as an intruder…. Which I suppose would probably be easiest from within the school building.
I hope the security guard didn’t contact Albert-Oniisama to let him know that his little sister has arrived. That would definitely ruin my evil infiltration plan.
“I’d like to go to the school building.”
“Oh, then come this way!” Liz-san says while smiling like an angel.
Most people would be charmed by that smile I’m sure, but not me. That sort of look isn’t my cup of tea.
…..It’s just way too pure and innocent.
