Chapter 32 (2/2)

“Here, here”

Riheed sits on the bench he often used during the holiday, the space next to hiuide Mari

Mari sits on the advised spot

“So then, is there so you want to talk about?”

“Yes, however, I also want to confirh”

“Eh?”

Sitting side-by-side on the bench, Riheed urges on the conversation with Mari

“This ’s attitude and the attitude now are completely different so I was surprised The Riheed-sama which I heard about from mother is how you are now To tell you the truth, that bo made me a bit disappointed”

“Oh, sorry about that It’s because I was told I wasn’t coic to produce that adult’s composure”

Even if you change the personality with ic, Riheed hadn’t noticed that that it fundamentally isn’t a solution

Hearing that story, Mari chuckled elegantly

“So that’s how it is But I’m relieved, it’s as I’d heard from mother”

“Hoho, I want to hear, but I’m also afraid!”

“Fufu, it’s only that you’re noisy but also gentle Also that you’re without discrimination no matter who you come in contact with”

Mari recalls the things her mother said about Riheed

Herabout the human before her eyes, was the face she liked the most

All the matters that he mother spoke of have been true, so Mari is relieved that that mother’s face hadn’t been a lie

Riheed’s behavior in thewas only a part of his boisterous true nature

“Oou, that’s a high evaluation!”

“And , was said”

“That’s a harsh ending!”

Mari continues to recall, Riheed as elated, drops dohen retorting

“However, I’m relieved That I can contact nor here everyone is slightly distant”

“Hht, next time I’ll introduce my friends”

“Really!? I’lad!”

Mari can’t help but be happy to be able to converse with the same Riheed who came up in her mother’s stories

And if it’s a friend of Riheed, she may be able to have normal contact, she anticipates

“And there’s more! I’ll announce you as a friend How’s that, princess-sama?”

“Maa! I’hted, but quickly stop with that princess-sama”

Riheed makes a proposal in a somewhat theatrical manner; however Mari, who can sense that fahted looking smile

“So it’ll be Mari then, ards then”

“That’s what I should say, please treat me well!”

Mari takes the hand which Riheed presented, sitting on the bench, the two shake hands for a short ti at one another

Eventually, the peculiar feeling which elling up hter which sounded like they’d gotten along well for quite a time

“This reot what I wanted to hear the most”

“Hmm?”

When recovering frohter, Mari recalls what she wanted to hear from Riheed

“So the exa!?”

“Oh, that’s right Woops, I informed cause you’re a friend, it’s a secret!”

Reet to stop her fro of it

Mari throbbed a little with the words “friend” and “secret”, but came back to her senses at once

“Is it like that? I understand, but for that to be the king of water…”

“You aware of it?”

“Yeah, I heard it ician and the king of water who healed the people of the forest ere exhausted froht with monsters”

That’s the fairy tale which Mari liked

Her belovedit, it’s natural when Mari thinks about it

“Heous story like that”

“Maa! Then please inform me of the true story”

“Hahhahha, in that case, why not, it’ll be a little talk about the old days”

Riheed begins to speak while recalling the old days

Mari quietly heard the story

Riheed’s profile stacks with her mother’s profile

And thus, Riheed’s second day at ic school came to an end
