Chapter 31 – Having met you

In a rooone dohile I was sitting in a chair next to the bed, I got an anxious feeling for yet another ti and teh of relief

There was a girl sleeping quietly on a bed in a dorm room

The person most important to me, Anne Sherry, in this world – Katarina Claes-sama

Without even the slightestthere

What if her breathing ends up stopping…… What if her body becomes cold……

Being driven byand temperature every ten minutes or so

It’s already the second day since Katarina-sama’s become like this

I just kept staying by Katarina-sama’s side, and could hardly even sleep at all I also didn’t have much of an appetite My coworker maids told o rest,” but I really didn’t want to switch at all

When I think that soht happen to Katarina-sa it impossible to leave her side at all

I held the sleeping Katarina-sama’s hand, and looked at her face

She has such a lively personality, that even when sleeping she would alwayswith her kicks, at seeing how she was sleeping withoutat all – I intensely felt that this situation was completely abnormal

Why…… did it become like this……

Two days ago, during arden and brought back to her dorm room here

What I heard fro well in theso she went to the infirmary to rest, and around the ti to return to the classrooms now”

And so, since she never arrived at the classrooan searching, and found her collapsed by herself in a corner of the school garden

However, no matter how much we called out to her there was no reply, so we immediately moved her to the infirmary, and when the doctor checked her condition he said “she’s only sleeping” But…… After that, no a out to her would wake her up, and we ended upher back to her own dorm room

And then we had the doctor check her again, but his diagnosis was still “she’s only sleeping”

Then at seeing how Katarina-sa up at all, the frustrated Prince Jared used his authority as a prince, and summoned one of the best doctors in the country here

He’s an elderly doctor who has quite the splendid e of the royal family’s health, one of the top class doctors in the country If it’s this person, , is what I hoped, but……

“Honestly, I have no idea what’s going on No matter how ht even open her eyes right now, or shejust like this”

“What will happen if she keeps sleeping just like this?”

Prince Jared asked with a grim expression on his face, and the doctor replied with a deeply sad expression

“……If she keeps sleeping just like this…… Without being able to eat or drink…… In that case, before long, her life will be in danger”

“Such a thing!? Such a stupid thing!?” Keith-sa with the doctor

When I looked to see what had caused a sudden loud noise, it was Prince Jared who had sla n of his usual smile

Mary-sa badly, and it seeht collapse at any moment as well Prince Alan’s expression was one that I’ve never seen as well, he was so terribly stiff

Sophia-sa tears frohtly that they were changing color

And so I took in how everyone was doing, and I also felt that I ht then and there if I allowed myself to relax

If Katarina-sama loses her life……

I felt an intense despair from the sudden fact that confronted me

After that, many other doctors came to see her as well, but the cause was still unknown, and Katarina-sama still wouldn’t wake up

Once, we asked one of the only light ic users in the entire country who also had the power of healing ic to come visit, but…… The result was still the same

One day passed, and then another…… There was no sign that Katarina-sama would wake up

The person that changed me from a tool into a human The most important person to me in the world

Even though I had decided to always be by your side and live with you –

I beg you Katarina-sama, please, please, don’t leave me alone

I gripped the sleeping Katarina-sahtly

“No, no Please don’t worry about such a scratch, Prince Jared Anyways, the scar will be no probles will hide it anyhow”

And so, it’s been seven years since the day she said that while s at me My all-important fiancee, Katarina Claes

This funny girl had appeared in front of otten by everyone in the royal palace and was spending every day bored to death

While spending tiirl who had hilarious actions, words, and hobbies – My world that was corey became filled with vivid colors instead

In s besides boredo toJealousy and pain as well…… They’re all emotions I never would have experienced if I hadn’t met Katarina

After the seven years I’ve spent with Katarina sincelife without Katarina anymore

At first, I had ulterior ed to her However, before I realized it, I began to love the person known as Katarina Claes more than anyone else in the world

Since she was innately a hare around her, but…… I have no intention of ever giving her up to anyone else, since she’s already in o

And yet…… For such a thing to have happened……

Even though I know that danger is approaching Katarina right now…… I can’t do anything to protect her I’ret and remorse

Katarina ic That’s what I thought, and I even had a light“If it’s a strong light ht, but…… The only person who has even stronger lightThe situation wasn’t i at all

I’ I can do…… I punched the ith all htly

“Keith, because we have becos now, it’s fine to just call me nee-san”

It’s been seven years since she said so while s her hand out to me Even so, I remember that day as clearly as if it were yesterday

I was reviled as amy knees alone by myself in my dark room Then, such a warm hand reached out to me

She told me “I’ll always be with you” with a sht ht world My all-important stepsister, Katarina Claes

I have entleness, she’s the most important person to me in the world

We’ll be together forever, and I had always intended to keep being together with her There’s no way that I’ll let her so-called fiance Prince Jared have her so easily

I’ve vowed that I would definitely protect her with my own hands For that purpose, I desperately learned swordsic, as well as how to beco was all in order to be able to protect her myself

And yet……

Why did it coether with her at that tih I had vowed that I would definitely protect her……

Regret was surging up within me

When I becaht years old, nee-san was always by ently towards me

Right noant to see that gentle smile so much……

I don’t want to lose Katarina……

I tried to stop

“Mary, you have a green thu plants! Yep, you and your green thu, special existence!”

She held both htly as she said so on that day, I still re aith my head down I really hated hoas

To such a , special existence I was so, so happy

My older sisters would call me “dirty,” and I also hated my auburn hair and eyes – When Katarina said she loved it, and told an to like it as well

In order to stand by Katarina’s side, and become a splendid lady, I worked really hard

Honestly speaking, ave up But, because Katarina was together with me, and said she liked

Everything that Mary Hunt is today is all because Katarina Claes was beside me

And so, from now on as well, I alanted to be by her side forever What’s more, to the point where I really want to steal her away from her fiance, she’s my favorite, most important person

And yet……

Seeing how Katarina was sleeping there so quietly al dark before my eyes, and I desperately braced myself the best I could

At this rate…… I can’t just keep feeling down like this……

I’m Katarina Claes’s close friend, Mary Hunt I’irl I was before!
