81 – Reunion (2)

A famous tea house in the academy.

This place is called the specialty of the academy because it is a shop that outsiders often visit.

Delia took a seat by the window in the teahouse, waiting for someone.

Someone who has recently pushed himself into an abyss of frustration.

It was Luen, a senior in another department, a sophomore in the Faculty of Magic.

‘I liked it first… .’

Delia bit her lip gently.

-Sacher and Luen are dating!

This secret rumor was spreading secretly among the staff of <Moonlight Night>.

I was on vacation, so it wasn’t widely known to the academy, but…

Ruen visits the alchemy shop every day and Sacher welcomes him.

And light skinship.

There was no way that several employees who witnessed all of this would not have noticed the meeting between the two.

And Delia, who heard the rumors first, swallowed her anger alone and asked to meet Luen.

I thought I should check the rumors with her myself.

I could have asked my senior, but I was afraid for some reason, so I couldn’t say it.

If I ask him directly, I’m afraid he’ll confess right away.

And as if betraying that courage, I’m afraid I’ll be rejected right away.

Delia, who had been betrayed by her closest family, was afraid of making her own person again.

So, even though I liked the senior, I couldn’t confess it hastily.

If you get rejected, your relationship with your senior will be strained, and being away from the person who understands you the most… It was an unbearable despair for Delia.

“… … .”

I was so immersed in thought.

Suddenly, Ruen was in front of me.

“Hello, senior.”

“… hi.”

Delia tried to hide her expression and invited her to sit down.

Faculty of Magic 2nd year, Ruen.

I was introduced to Sacher the other day, and after finding out that he was taking <Calligraphy> lecture together, he was a senior I knew a lot about.

A person who always doesn’t talk and quietly does his own thing.

That Ruen, who is more shy and blunt than Delia herself, meets Sacher-senpai.

Delia couldn’t believe it at all.

‘I thought I was just being quiet… .’

A senior who always seemed to be in the same place.

Unexpectedly, she was the first cat to climb onto the stove.

And Delia finally understood.

Why did Luen give her so much advice during <Calligraphy> class?

A phrase to convey to your loved ones.

After hearing that it was being sent to Sacher, it was clear that Luen was also in a bad mood.

It was because Delia was implicitly expressing that she had a crush on Sacher.

Delia looked at Ruen quietly.

Brown wavy hair and red eyes.

A beautiful look that will make all passers-by look back.

Certainly she was pretty.

The neat academy uniform she wore was classy and elegant, enough to be regarded as a flaw.

Delia bit her lip once more.

Now was not the time to admire her appearance.

“I’ll ask you directly.”

“… … .”

“Are you really dating Sacher?”

A confirmation question that you are noticing, but want to hear directly from the person in question.

Are you really dating?

At that one word, I felt Ruen’s body tremble.

And she looked at Delia for a moment, then nodded cautiously.

“… huh.”

“ah… .”

Delia’s expression finally collapsed.

dating a senior

What had only been accomplished in his imagination, Ruen-senpai had already achieved it himself.

I thought I liked you before anyone else.

After all, it was Delia herself who was behind everyone else.

He was afraid of being rejected, so he resented the past days when he couldn’t openly tell his feelings.

-Hate Dad as hard as you can. Watch your father pay for his sins, just as your feelings go.

And then.

The advice of a senior who shone the brightest in his life came to mind like a whisper.

whatever your mind goes.

Looking at my feelings as they go.

It wasn’t just my feelings for my father.

The feeling of liking seniors was the same.

-After hating to the fullest like that, after pouring out all the emotions. Finally, Delia, you too will be able to stand upright and look at your father.

Delia still liked Sacher senior.

He was the man who changed her life, and she hadn’t been able to pour out all her feelings for him.

therefore…

I haven’t been able to stand and look at him yet.

Just because Ruen is by his side now doesn’t change anything.

There is no legal problem for a noble son to have relations with multiple women.

The important thing was the relationship between Delia herself and her senior.

After Delia confessed and poured out all her feelings for her senior, she was finally able to look at him.

Stopping in fear of the outcome without even trying was the same as not having the right to despair.

“I like you too.”

So in front of his lover Ruen.

Delia said confidently.

It was like making a declaration to yourself.

At Delia’s confident words, Ruen’s eyes widened slightly.

“I think I also have a chance to check my heart. Realistically, there’s nothing wrong with that. So I’ll tell Ruen-senpai in advance. me too… I like Sacher, too.”

Delia is always languid and has a quiet personality.

That’s why the nickname attached is also puppy grass.

She was anxious as if she would be shaken by the slightest wind…

Now more confident than anyone else and overflowing with confidence.

A firmness that will not be shaken under any circumstances.

It was clearly present in her.

Ruen looked at Delia like that.

It was as if he was seeing himself after hearing advice from Ariel a few days ago.

He is honest with his feelings and confident in expressing them.

Watching a person’s inner growth right in front of his eyes.

Regardless of the process and content, it was worth looking straight at.

“… huh.”

So, Luen quietly nodded.

A simple answer that doesn’t add any additional words to that bold declaration.

It’s like a kind of permission…

It was a positive signal only for Ruen.

A very slight smile hung on Ruen’s lips, which were always expressionless.

* * *

“I like you, senior.”

Something to come has come.

A few days after dating Ruen.

During the break at the Alchemy Shop closing time, Delia confessed to me.

Did you say word of mouth is faster than feet?

I had no intention of hiding it, so the fact that Ruen and I were dating quickly spread throughout the Alchemy Shop.

Delia, who always had an excessive crush on me.

It was even more strange that she did nothing about the news.

“I like that old man. Not with seniors and juniors, but with the opposite s*x.”

“Delia. I don’t know if you know… ”

“i know. You’re dating Luen-senpai. does not matter. I just wanted to tell you how I feel. Because I don’t want to regret it.”

“… … .”

What was the trigger?

Delia, unlike usual, was confident and full of confidence.

like…

Just like the day I listened to my advice and went to see my dad without hesitation.

It’s not foxtail, it’s the feeling of hard pine.

Same with Luen and Delia.

Women seem to become more different people when they check their hearts.

“Do I have to answer right now?”

“yes. I want to hear it now.”

Delia’s expression was unusually determined.

It was a more resolute face than Ruen, who confessed his feelings for the first time.

I made eye contact with her and finally spoke up.

“It might be difficult to always look after Delia.”

“are you okay. Ever since I heard that you were dating Ruen-senpai, I hadn’t even thought about that.”

From the day they started dating, Ruen had already allowed him to date other people.

It may be because she has a big heart, but it must be because she understands that the feelings she felt are precious to others.

As she realized this late herself, Luen hoped that neither of them would have any regrets in the relationship surrounding me.

“I might not have enough time to meet you because I’m researching magic tools.”

“I can study together. did you forget I am the co-chief of the first year of the Faculty of Alchemy.”

I don’t know when Delia entered me.

Ever since you showed me your tears in the carriage?

Or since the time when you confessed everything and became honest?

Or else…

From that empty lecture hall that I first encountered?

senior.

Delia, who called me with one word, was always by my side.

When helping with morphine, when participating in the Colosseum.

Even when I was betrayed by my dad, even when I stood right in front of my dad.

Even when working at the alchemy shop, when working on a new alchemy shop business.

She knows it or doesn’t know it, or it’s too obvious.

It was always near, always looking at the same place.

My life has changed significantly three times.

10 years ago, once on that day that was a living hell.

After being adopted by the Philip family, once when he met Karin.

And after entering the academy…

Until now, living as a student, erasing the old me and changing little by little.

In the beginning, Ruen and Schnika…

And at the end of it stood Delia.

Just as I made a difference in her with a few words, she was at the center of a change in my life.

Even when he was confessed to by Luen.

Even now when he is confessed to by Delia.

It was only then that I realized.

As much as they love and care for me…

Me too, without even knowing it.

That I was treating them with so much respect.

“Ruen, you can go out with someone other than Delia. Is that okay too?”

“Is it a big deal for a mighty warrior to have multiple wives? Even seniors are nobles. Of course it’s fine.”

“… Have you already thought about getting married?”

“yes? Oh no. It’s not… !”

“Puh-”

Was this question unexpected?

Delia, who was confident, came back to foxtail.

It was cute to see him suddenly flustered and flustered.

I smiled a little and slowly approached her.

“… … !”

Then, softly, he hugged her in his arms.

On the outside, he pretended to be confident and decent, but he could tell from hugging her.

Delia was shaking more than ever.

The tension-filled body and mind were conveyed deeply through the skin in contact.

I gently stroked Delia’s pale green hair and whispered to her.

“Sorry for the late reply. I like Delia too. To be honest, I was confused myself too, but since you told me, I think that feeling has become clearer. thank you.”

“… … .”

Suddenly, Delia’s tremors subsided.

I thought I answered by going straight without turning, but wasn’t it… ?

Feeling strange, I fell from holding her for a while.

Delia…

I was crying.

I don’t know what words stirred her tear glands, but she was crying without fail.

I’ve felt it before, but I’m a child with a lot of tears.

Even now, when I receive an affirmative answer to my confession, I can’t believe I’m shedding tears… .

I thought it looked like a puppy pool.

“Are you crying because you hate me?”

“no… There is.”

“Then why are you crying?”

“… I’m crying because I’m happy. I’m so happy. It’s like a dream. If tomorrow… It seems to disappear.”

“I have a lot of worries.”

It’s a useless worry, but it’s also a worry that’s like her.

As usual, I stroked Delia’s hair.

she seems to be in a good mood

He quietly closed his eyes and accepted my hand.

“… Hug me again.”

“As you like.”

Without delay, he took her in his arms.

I guess this time the tension was relieved.

I could feel Delia hugging me as hard as she could.

“I like you, senior.”

“I like it too. Delia.”

“Senior arms… I feel good. I want to keep holding you.”

“Is that a bit raunchy?”

“Don’t break the mood.”

“yes.”

I quickly responded to Delia’s cold words.

puppy pool…

scared.

Since we decided to date, people have already changed… .
