Chapter 24 (2/2)
“Thank you!”
And so, just as I wished, I ed to successfully secure a pro some of her handmade sweets for me to try
After class the day after I secured Maria-chan’s pro e intoby myself on the road to the dorathered in the student council rooht now for work, but……
Today, I wanted to use the fertilizer that I just received fro so me away
And so, while I alking on the dor loudly Since today I forgot my homework for my class at noon, I was scolded by Keith and had to write an apology, and I wasn’t able to eat enough lunch because of that Usually before I headed out to work in the field, Anne would prepare so that – ht a very delicious smell in the air
And so, I became all aflutter involuntarily and was hooked by the smell, and followed it towards the forest that was a bit off the road –
Maria-chan and a few girls that were probably students of this school were there
They were positioned al dresses, I guessed that the girls were probably high nobility
And so, the delicious s fro covered with a handkerchief…… This delicious s the air in the area
What’s going on here! Could that possibly be, the handh she had just proirl she is!
I was so thankful that I immediately ran up to Maria-chan and the others who didn’t notice me at all…… That’s when it happened
“Thuirls surrounding Maria-chan swung her hand wildly, and knocked over the basket Maria-chan was holding onto the ground
And so, what fell out of the basket was probably the sweets that Maria-chan made herself, so out
“Just because you have the power of lightfawned over by everyone, doesn’t that feel just great! A co as poor as this for the student council to eat, have some shame and know your place!”
The girl was saying so as the basket laid on the ground, and now it looks like she’s about to start sto all over the sweets!? Wait ato my sweets~~!!
“Stop!”
I got between the girl and Maria-chan and shouted
“……K, Katarina Claes-sama……”
Right now, all the girls surrounding Maria-chan ide-eyed at irl that was about to stomp on the sweets
“What exactly do you all think you’re doing!?”
What do you think you’re doing to the sweets that Maria-chan went to the trouble of irls
“……Eek!”
The girls all instantly turned pale After all, this is a villainous face! It’ll double the strength of any glaring!
The criivable!
I aze, and increased the sharpness of irls
I guess they were affected by irls –
“We’re very sorry!!”
And with pale faces and heads down, they raced each otherof ladies to dash away – no, to run away
……Mmm Today, my villainous face is in perfect condition
But anyways…… I turned towards the handround Because the ground here was rass, there seems to be very little dirt on them
I picked up the basket first, then started putting the fallen sweets back inside
Then, like usual, the sain…… I couldn’t hold back anymore and finally reached for a sweet myself
And so, I snapped up the whole thing into my mouth
“……Delicious”
This is, the best taste a all the sweets that I have ever eaten! This is too delicious! What is this mellow taste, and it’s not even that sweet, it’s unbelievable how perfectly controlled the sweetness is And so, at how delicious the sweets were, I lost myself in a drea all of the sweets in the basket that I’d picked up
And then “ahh, I’m full, I’ at me in shock
……Oh no, I’ve done it now! I’ve finally gotten so carried away that I ate all of Maria-chan’s sweets~! Since there were so many, they were probably for everyone in the student council to share……
……Or perhaps I should say, I had thought they were all ht not have been meant for me…… This is bad!
“Uh, uhh, I got really carried away and ate all of them…… I’m really sorry!”
I loweredpanic Then Maria-chan started talking in a rather hesitant manner
“Ah, it’s okay I don’t round……”
Ahh, I see, so it’s about that She didn’t say, “but it wasn’t even so made for you,” I’m really happy~
“Since they fell on the grass, it’s no probleot any dirt on them”
If you pick them up immediately, it should be safe by the three-second rule as well As I said so, I puffed out my chest in pride
“……Is, is that so”
Maria-chan laughed as if she was somewhat troubled
But anyways –
“Ca sweets That was very delicious”
Yep, the deliciousness of Maria-chan’s handmade sweets far exceeded my expectations That mellow taste in my mouth, that exquisite sweetness, her workmanshi+p isn’t inferior to a professional cook’s in any way at all When I told Maria-chan s –
“……Thank you very much”
She laughed bashfully with her cheeks turning slightly red
Whileinvoluntarily in excitement at her cuteness – Prince Jared came from the direction of the school campus
It see, but since Maria-chan who never ot worried and were searching for her
I was squatting on the ground while holding a basket, and Maria-chan was standing still with red cheeks, Jared see at us rather dubiously…… Maria-chan“by coincidence, I met Katarina-sa him “Katarina-sama ate all the sweets that were meant for everyone” If that had been exposed, I would have faced the anger of Jared and Keith, with the “how could you eat someone else’s sweets!”
And so, since Jared found Maria-chan safely without incident, they went back together to the student council roo with them as well, but since I really wanted to sprinkle the fertilizer in my field today, I courteously refused
And so, with ed into my work clothes, and headed for the field
But anyways, to think that Maria-chan was being bullied like that…… While I orking in the field, I thought about what happened earlier
Even though she’s a corades are excellent By the way, her face and personality are great as well On top of that, she got chosen to be a member of the student council that all the students admire
Maria-chan is the envy of the entire school…… The proud nobles must be very jealous of her That’s why, people like that who pick fights will appear
In the first place, in the ga that to the heroine, but…… That’s not the case now But even so, this school is filled with high nobility, so for exa the heroine, a second, or even third Katarina will appear to take that role
But anyways, to treat the sweets that Maria-chan went to the trouble offor me like that, they’re such bad kids Just a little
Man, I’h pride and mean intentions –
……The game’s Katarina……
Coa the heroine just like what happened to Maria-chan today……
When Maria-chan was bringing some sweets that she had made for everyone in the student council, on her way towards the student council rooround, and then stomped all over
At this tiet Jared appeared in the nick of tiht off the villainess Katarina and her comrades
And so, he picked up soround and tasted therin at Maria-chan and said “it’s delicious”
Man, it was different froentle smile at that time was almost as if it could transmit his emotions from across the screen
I see, so what happened today, was that event…… Since I wasn’t the villainous Katarina, I hadn’t realized
If I think of it like this, that explains why Jared appeared as well After all, it was supposed to be Jared’s event I see, so it was Jared’s event –
……So does that mean, I just stole Jared’s event away from him!?
I inally, Jared was supposed to stop Katarina there, and before Jared could chase the girls off today I scared them all off with my villainous face…… On top of that, before Jared could show off such a nice smile, I had already eaten all the sweets……
Ahh~, I’m really sorry, Jared I’ve stolen a love event from an important friend of mine…… If it’s like this, Maria-chan and Jared won’t be able to fall in love I’m really, really sorry……
……Huh? Wouldn’t it be better if they didn’t fall in love?
I mean, if Jared and Maria-chan fall in love, then Katarina won’t be needed anyht to a destruction end……
Thatit, I’ve gotten further off the path to destruction, wonderful!
Alright~! Then, I’ll work hard and keep going just like this!
And so with renewed resolve, I began sprinkling the fertilizer that Tom-san had sent me
However, I got too carried away……
After that, I had to listen to Anne’s scolding, and my work clothes were confiscated for a day
