Mulan's laboratory consists of four elves, one human, and one beastkin, which is Mulan herself.
The oldest and the lab leader, Noah, is an elf with a monocle and short hair, nearly 100 years old, and single.
Next is the human, Orts, who is 25 years old.
Following him is Electora, who is 22 years old.
Bartolomeo, with short hair and a braid on the right side, and Rochefort, with a ponytail, are both 20-year-old young men, as they appear.
Mulan, a pure white leopard beastkin, is the youngest.
When Electora sought advice about her feelings for Mulan, the others in the lab smiled and said, "Finally."
They had already seen through Electora's feelings.
"But it's better to take your time. She just finished a lonely battle over two years and severed the bond of 'fated mate'... you could say she's still in a state of heartbreak."
Noah said this.
"I don't intend to pursue her aggressively either."
Electora nodded, indicating she had no intention of rushing.
"Mulan is cute to watch, but it's not romantic."
"Yeah, it's like watching a cat and feeling healed."
Bartolomeo and Rochefort laughed lightly.
"It's rude to treat her like a cat," Orts said with a wry smile.
"Strictly speaking, she's a leopard," Noah pointed out.
While it's rare for a beastkin, Mulan's tail is hard to resist following with your eyes. Her animal ears, which react to sounds and twitch, are also incredibly cute. It's all because she's a feline.
Electora nodded with a relaxed smile, "I understand. Even her graceful movements are cute."
She is polite and considerate, and even as a newcomer, she helps out in small ways. It's no wonder she makes a good impression.
"So, how are you going to approach her?"
Bartolomeo asked, intrigued and amused.
"…Well, I'll increase our daily conversations and gradually become closer in private."
Electora's approach of taking her time began.
Orts, who subtly cooperated, found it endearing. Mulan's reaction was not bad either.
After three years of meeting, they started dating, and Electora made a fist pump.
One day,
"What!? Reina, did you tell her that elves' love is heavy!?"
Orts was startled when he heard this from Reina, an elf from another lab and his colleague.
"Yes, I did."
Reina was completely nonchalant.
"That's not something you should tell others… What if it backfires?"
"It won't! Besides, if knowing that would make her back off, then it's not meant to be. Mulan took it calmly."
"That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?"
"What's your problem!?"
Reina pouted, and Orts shrugged.
Mulan still didn't know about the heavy love elves have for their mates. For Mulan, who had a 'fated mate,' it was a sensitive issue. Telling Reina about it…
Orts, who secretly had feelings for Reina, didn't say anything more.
Mulan, who usually appeared to be with Electora, seemed normal.
"See? It's fine, right?"
The scent of flowers wafted from Reina's whisper, and Orts tensed.
Orts had no intention of revealing his feelings. He thought he didn't match up to the elf Reina.
So, a little bit. He envied Mulan and Electora.
However, Orts made a mistake. It was after Mulan and Electora's wedding, three years later.
"Does anyone not have a good person?"
In a joking atmosphere, Mulan joined in.
Orts inadvertently looked at Reina, and their eyes met perfectly. Flustered, Orts turned away, and his face turned red.
"Orts!?"
"!!"
Orts chose to flee. But Reina, using her wind magic, accelerated and leaped onto his back.
"How long has this been going on, Orts!?"
"!!"
"I like you too, Orts!"
"!? !? !?"
Stunned by the mutual feelings, and even more so,
"Let's get married, Orts!"
He was even proposed to.
Orts, who had secretly liked the beautiful elf Reina, ended up in a speed marriage.
"Congratulations, both of you."
"It's thanks to Mulan! I always thought I had no chance."
"Me, the cupid? What an honor."
"……"
Mulan chuckled. Orts, who was showered with Reina's heavy love, was grateful but still had trouble being honest, blushing and falling silent.
Thanks to everyone, the book has been published!

In this book, I've added more details about the slow approach of the heavy-love owner, Electora, and her brother Tyler's side story. On Comic Sea More, there's even a story about Mulan and Electora's child! I hope you'll buy and read it.
Writing the interactions between Electora and Tyler was fun!
