Love Confession
“Mister Leon! This will not doThose who march on the path of tea do not cause trouble for a lady! That is not what a gentleman does!”
“I’m sorry, MentorHowever, I──I had my circumstances!”
The cafe no longer had any guests
My mentor scolded me
Anjie askedlecturedNor a serious expression, but I took my mentor’s words to heart
I couldn’t go against this person
After all, my mentor was my teacher for tea before a teacher of the academy
My mentor placed his hand on my shoulder
“It must have been painfulIt ive upBeyond is the path of a true gentle to the path of tea”
“──R, right, Mentor!”
The path of a gentle and steep
Myih
The adult wo on chair with an exhausted faceBy her sides sat Anjie and Livia, and they surrounded a round table
I changed et in touch with their friends for a fun party
The irritating girls were pardoned by the queen and left the scene to run awayI engraved their faces into et them
“It seems your discussion is overSo, is it okay if I speak next?”
My htened his back, adjusted his suit, and started acting like a waiter
“In that case, let me prepare some teaMister Leon, may I borrow your tools?”
“Of course!”
I was delighted to have my mentor use the instruments and tea leaves of mine
Leaving that aside, I orried about how the queen seery at me
“LeonI’m mad”
When the queen said that, I instantly went down on my knees and put my hands onto the floor
“So you really were angry, I understand, but please spare my family at least! I, I don’t care about what you do to me!”
Milaine becaain when I took such an attitude
“Huh? NoT, that’s not itThat’s not what I’ aboutAnjie, help!”
Once I saw Milaine seeking help fro next to her, I understood that she wasn’t really angry
Well actually, I already knew that fro skills
If the queen was genuinely angry, I would have been fleeing frodom by now
However, Anjie realized that I was acting
“Milaine, he’s teasing youLeon’s face is telling ry”
“Huh?”
When Milaine looked ata fist onto my head──a silly pose
It seelared at aze
“How cheapI ed you”
“My apologies!”
After I y, my mentor went towards Milaine to provide his servicesI felt liketea
The fragrance was shocking
Augh! It wasof a difference?
It wasn’t just a difference in fragrance
As expected of my mentor
“Queen, you wanted to travel incognito, but──”
“It’s fineTo my disappointoing onLeon, I ca like a punishment, just some private talk”
──I suppose that I should have expected this
The reason being that I had beaten up Julian
His ive me for that
Well Milaine was the queen──but in the game, she was a so-called enemyAs can be seen from her close relationshi+p with Anjie, she was so both her and Anjie to becoonist’s enemies
As expected for a game marketed towards womenThe mother-in-laere loathsome
She was so Julian fall in love with herSaying this is obvious, but in the otoame, she was an opponent who tried to disrupt the relationshi+p between the two
It was a bit absurdIt was quite obvious to tell that she fit the template for a cruel person
By the end, Milaine eventually recognized the protagonist
That was caused by the protagonist gaining the position of a saintThe position of a saint had a very i
These explanations were just part of the overly-lackluster explanations in the garand, but it was as if the protagonist was coreat service in the end
The power of the protagonist herself was also pretty major, but to think that the power of saint was this immense
I’ve gone off-topicWell, I wonder what criticism Milaine had for me
“Do tell”
“AlrightWell then──I’ll first apologize for JulianI’m sorry that you had to deal with that child’s selfishness”
I didn’t expect her to start with an apology
I didn’t expect her to start with an apology
She was quite courteous for someone supposedly evil
“Even as his s turned out like thisThough this may be improper to say, it’s a relief that he at least has a lover who’s from a viscount householdHe hadn’t cared for women when he was at the royal palace, so I didn’t think that he would be this fixated on her”
Milaine stared right into my pupils
It was as if her clear, blue eyes were about to devour me
I then noticed so remarkable──This person was very beautiful
When considering her behavior froo, I wouldn’t believe that she were someone as even in her thirties
Actually, wasn’t she pretty cute?!
“However, I cannot condone what happened in the duelThat fight was too harshCouldn’t you have resolved it in a more peaceful way?”
I did think it was possible, but I didn’t really care because I wanted to relieve my stress
While lanced at Livia and Anjie to ask for helpHowever, the two didn’t pay attention
The cause for that was probably the words the earl daughter said a while ago
They both cast their eyes doard and didn’t notice the eye contact I waswith them
When I made a silent prayer in order to ask Luxon for help, I heard an electronic sound
[Master doing things peacefully? ImpossibleWhat does this person expect from my master?]
──What a heartless companion
What a useless AI! It should’ve been more friendly towards me!
However,what I was thinking about when looking at both Livia and Anjie
“Oh, could it be because of that? How youthful you are~”
Just what kind ofa smirk?
──Well, I kept on being silent since it was convenient
“Leon, I think you know this, but you have many enemies in the royal palaceMany people had placed their expectations on JulianHave you thought carefully about what you will do from now on?”
Let alone the royal palace, I had so many enemies within the academy
Seriously, why did such a virtuous person like me have to suffer such an experience? Anyways, I suppose I would have enemies in the royal palace
“Of course”
I pretended to be aware of it, but I was relying on Anjie’s father for the matters of the royal palaceIn the first place, I didn’t want to show up in the royal palace, nor was I interested in being promoted
If I had the choice, I would have liked being demoted instead
So there were people who had expectations for Julian? They should’ve just given up and accept that they had edReally, they had poor discernment skillsAfter all, Julian incompetency was clear the moment he threay Anjie and chose Marie
He was disqualified fro the crown prince
“I seeYou’re a capable child, aren’t youPerhaps if there was a child like you by Julian’s side, he wouldn’t have gone down an erroneous path”
“I seeYou’re a capable child, aren’t youPerhaps if there was a child like you by Julian’s side, he wouldn’t have gone down an erroneous path”
I wondered about thatMarie would certainly have kept a distance if I were by his sideHowever, in that case, Livia ame-like reasonIn that case, Anjie would become her enemy
Whether it be the right choice for the gaht choice for reality──both were bothersome
How troublingIf I were by his side, I have a feeling that I would have ht now
Though, there’s no point in talking about hypothetical scenarios
“I’e my stance”
“Is that so? So be it then, I have one other goal for todayDo help me with it”
“One other goal?”
“Since I came from a different country, I’ve never attended the academySo, I want to have soht Leon? The acadereatly interestsabout it in delight, and that makes me envious”
A woman in her thirties wanteda mischievous smile towards me?
Perhaps in my previous life, I would have showed respect to my elders with a smile
However──that wasn’t the case anymore
I got up and grabbed Milaine’s hand
What beautiful hands she had
“Huh?”
Milaine voiced out as such in surprise
“Sure thingLet’s make some memories at the academyMilaine──please marry me!”
Milaine was flustered and had a red face
Livia and Anjie got up from their chairs
“Leon! What are you saying?!”
“Y, y──you! You’re talking to the queen!”
As expected,entleman, shocked?
“Mister Leon, I cannot laugh at such absurd jests!”
I knew this would happenI are of what I was doing, but I wanted them to think carefully here
What was the goal of going to the acade answer!
This was the acadeoal! It was e! In other words, she must have wanted such e proposal!
I wasn’t being serious, but what could I do when she said that she wanted to make memories?
In other words, the queen wanted a confession of love! What a glorious deduction of !
In addition, Milaine was very excellent when one saw her as a iven birth before? That’s just proof that she could make children! nobles wanted heirs anyways, so they would warirls in the acadeins anyways!
Other than in fantasies, there was no such thing as a virgin!
What about age? It’s all goodRather than teenage brutes who hadn’t learned raceful cute woman in her thirties was better! I wanted to !

This is what I cah irls already
If I had to choose between the girls at the academy or Milaine, I would choose Milaine without hesitation!
Oh, waitI intended this to be a joke, but was there really anyone as perfect as her?
“I like you! I love you!”
The words came out of
“T, that’s troublingI, I’m already a older woman with a husband and kids”
