Chapter 90 (2/2)

“Hah?! What are you talking about suddenly, Aniki!”

First love

Harold turned bright red hearing Gilbert’s words which was thrown froht about

However, his response made Gilbert further misunderstood

“Right, right, I wanted to see a reaction like that!”

“What do you mean by that”

“So like this, you want to keep her away froold or connection, and you want to cherish her, right?”

“That’s not itErica and I are……how do I say it, we are not like that!”

“Eh~, is that so?”

“What is it, AnikiYou’re staring”

Gilbert felt a certain air as if Harold was fed up with him from his attitude

Being glared at, Gilbert gave in quickly

Correcting his posture, made a serious look and sat opposite of him

He just wanted to play with the young people, he didn’t want fight

“I’m sorryI went too far”

“Aniki, why do you have such a wild idea like a smelly old man?”

“Smelly old man……”

Hearing Harold’s casual phrase, Gilbert suffered deep dae

Recovering his spirit, Gilbert replied

“It’s like this, I am your older brother

“It’s like this, I am your older brother

I want to give love advice to Botchan who is disheartened because the princess of your first love already has a prince”

“Eh, I don’t understand what you mean at all”

“See, you have a fleeting first love on Ericjou who you had fatefully encountered, right?”

“Eeh—”

In Harold’s mind, for some reason, the sadistic and indeed senior aristocrat Erica’s features rose to the surface

The seeressive, was like a hammer or a vise if he compared her to a tool

It was a hard and difficult choice as a first love partner

Harold’s cheeks twitched, if he liked someone like that, he would live a hard life

“But next to the princess there is the perfect His Highness Auguste, isn’t there?

It’s regrettable, but he’s a good match for herAah, it’s painful when first love doesn’t come true, isn’t it?”

“Haa”

Auguste with a carefree sirl, came to his mind

The royalty’s bad habit of being defenseless thoughtlessly and his innocent speech and conduct, made him feel disconcerted

However, if one peeled off the angel-like surface, one would see a devil lurking underneath it, Harold had witnessed a gli

What absolute perfection, Harold thought

“If it’s His Highness Auguste and Ericojousama, aren’t they a couple that suits each other?”

“Ah—, sure, they do suit each other”

Both of the, lovely outward appearance

When they dressed up and lined side-by-side, they painted a beautiful picture

Harold trembled with fear that they were also well- internally and, if possible, he didn’t want to get close

“Such painful and bittersweet things are unacceptable”

“Is this still about your wild idea?”

“Yeah”

“What a sha”

Gilbert hung his head dejectedly

“Ah–, well, that’s rightI’ fun of you, Botchan”

“……I mean, Aniki is different froh spirits?”

“Eh, I’h”

When Harold pointed it out, Gilbert avoidedhis eyes directly

Aah, as expected there is so, Harold became suspicious

“Hm?”

Suddenly, Harold realized that there was a sweet fragrance different from usual

“This is weirdIs Aniki wearing perfume?”

“Uh, no, this is……nowadays I room myself

Since I’ over at the workshop, the days I couldn’t return home continue”

“On the contrary, your shi+rt is clean”

“Uuh, well, I have many similar shi+rts”

“But it’s crisp froirlfriend?”

“Wait–!? You……!?”

Harold concentrated his consciousness on Gilbert’s perfume

This was a fragrant he had recently smelled

“Southern flowers, rose, bergamot, lime, and a little cloves……this is the new perfume of the store at Barker Street”

“Uuh, how did you know it!?”

The perfume store handles mainly perfume for women, but this new product was a rare one for men

There was only one woe in that store

The perfumer Bell

A woreen eyes with crafts red hair in braids

The perfumer Bell

A woreen eyes with crafts red hair in braids

“Your girlfriend is the perfuh spirits these days

Her new product is being given a so name like 『Sweet Melody of Lovers』, which is unlike her”

“Geh, she gave it a name like that!?”

“I see–, Aniki and Ane-chan are childhood friends?”

“W-why do you—”

“Because you guys are the sae”

“O-ou……you gotfrom Botchan, huh”

Gilbert, as being toyed by Harold, learned the feeling of i on the side of the one as being toyed

“Bell-anechan, when I think about it, she doesn’t have anyfor Aniki for ten years, huh

And, Aniki’s business also got on track, turning down major companies—”

“See, see you later, BotchanI’ll end it here

Do your best and don’t push yourself too hard!”

Gilbert left the roo off Harold’s words with a loud voice

Only the sweet fragrance of his perfume was left in the Wunderkammer

“Good grief, that Aniki……love or anything like that is so that I cannot afford”

Harold sighed lightly

Right noas having fun with asse

Falling in love and the like would add too h if he did it in ten years or so, he thought

Moreover, it wasn’t likely for him to see Erica as a romance subject for the moment

For Harold, Erica was his benefactor

At that time, if there was no Erica

If Auguste had not co for Erica

That hy he had a lifetiratitude for her

Of course Harold was also indebted to Auguste, but in any case, it would suffice to say that he was a national interest to hi

“Now then……I wonder if there will be any progress today”

Harold sat on the chair and started working on a prototype for Erica

Many of her proposals were interesting

It was a fun task that Harold could also satisfy his intellectual curiosity

A wand charged with effective radually and sent the prototypes one by one

The prototype was coed with demonic eye

The current challenge was boots with ic

“But, I wonder what they are used for”

Harold didn’t hear about the details in the end

When he wanted to talk about it, he thought that it would be good if she could tell it when it was easier to talk, so he postponed it

However, he knew that there were only soerous situations to the extent he orried to death

Harold wanted to be a man who could save her if Erica fell into desperate circumstances

Like hoas saved when he fell into despair

If a predicaht that was the time for him to help Erica

Once he had done that, he could finally be her equal in the real sense

“Oh wellI can onlyyou”

Harold stopped worrying and started working

‘If you have time to be worried, move your hands even just a little’, that was his creed
