“Ah. In a mafia territorial dispute, there was a time when one of the members of the gang ran away in the night after being beaten up by other rivals as soon as he screwed up. That’s pretty much it.”

Vario made a bold face of disgust.

“……Do you have any more decent examples”

“But I don’t know if I can make that, though”

“As I thought…… we have different positions and values. It’s natural that we don’t understand each other.”

“In other words, it would be nice if you could obtain both the prosperity of the house and Leina ~huh.”

“……Ha?”

Vario looked as if he had been caught off-guard.

Soon, however, he raised an eyebrow and shook his head.

“You don’t get it at all. I’m worried because I can’t do that. You don’t understand the gravity of the situation.”

“Well, maybe I don’t understand it. But you know what, I’m not going to give up on the person I love so easily. I don’t care if it’s a one-sided love, more so if we like each other.”

Haruto’s voice was passionate.

“I understand what it’s like to not be able to say you love someone out in the open. There may be times when each other’s positions don’t permit it. The people who control the country and the people around us want us to do what they expect us to do. But, you know, I don’t have any obligation to do what they say.”

Vario was overwhelmed by Haruto’s straight line of sight.

And then he wondered.

He, so to speak, was an aristocrat of an enemy nation. From Haruto’s point of view, he must be the most hateful person.

So why is he so hot in here?

I don’t think the words he spoke are other people’s affairs.

It was as if he was talking about himself——

“I’ll ask you again. Do you like Leina?”

After some hesitation, Vario nodded quietly.

“……Ah. I love her.”

“Then, your status doesn’t matter. If you really care about that kind of thing, then you don’t really like her.”

“No! I’m ……”

“If your first priority is the prosperity of your family, then it’s fine. That is, if you don’t regret it when you die.”

“……when I die, is it?”

I had never imagined myself dying.

I would become the husband of Iris, who’ll become the Empress. I would spend my days constantly looking out for my wife and getting involved in all kinds of political struggles. And the last moment —— I can’t imagine it.

What if I choose Leina?

I can’t imagine it clearly either. But mysteriously, it calms my mind.

“I wouldn’t go so far as to say it was a life well-lived. But you have kept the most important thing. It’s just a question of whether or not you think your life will be one where you can say that.”

“……Haruto. Perhaps, you too?”

Vario looked at Haruto with a clear, unhostile eyes.

……This is bad.

I just got too hot!

I didn’t say anything I shouldn’t have, right!?

“Are you, also suffering from an immoral love?”

His heart was pounding painfully.

“We,well, commoners have commoners’ fetters, you know.”

“……I see. So what happened with you?”

“I haven’t gotten any results yet, though. But, I won’t give up.”

“Haruto……”

“I can understand that the prosperity of a family is important. But aren’t there some things that are more important to you personally?”

Vario listened intently to Haruto’s words.

“Besides, there are ways to prosper without intermarrying with a royalty. However, nothing else can make up for the presence of the person you love the most.”

“Haruto …… but I don’t have confidence in myself.”

“Confidence?”

“Once I’ve made up my mind, I’ll never know if it will work. …… I have thought it would make everyone unhappy in the end. ……”

His anxiety was painfully clear to Haruto.

What if I loved Iris so much that I caused the world to collapse?

Claude, everyone at Blaze, and all the people Iris cares about, the many innocent people, the people of Luminous and Horizon —— It could send everyone on the continent into the bottom of misery.

——But,

“You can do it!!”

“……Haruto?”

Haruto clenched his fists and pointed them at Vario.

“To be with someone you really love, you can do anything. You can even make a miracle happen!!”

“……miracle”

Vario, staring at Haruto’s fist, was stunned for a while.

But, when he smiled strangely,

“I see —— if it’s certainly not a miracle, this situation may not change. But……”

Vario raised his fist and bumped it at Haruto’s fist.

“I’m starting to think it’s gonna happen.”

“Oh”

Vario turned his back to Haruto and started to walk away.

“My gratitude for today, will be returned in tomorrow’s practical test.”

“Ah, I’ll give you a special interest bonus.”

He had thought that his match with Vario would be troublesome, but he was strangely looking forward to it.

However ——,

For some reason, Vario did not show up for the practical test.

〇〇〇

Haruto’s nightmare of an exam has ended, and today is his practical exam. From there, the real action will begin. The first game is Haruto vs. Vario, but

“He’s late……”

At the practice field a short distance from the school building, Haruto was forced to wait.

He seems like the serious, and detailed type, but he’s late? Or is this just a psychological tactic?

Even the teachers who were evaluating the students looked troubled.

Right now, all the students of Absolute are searching for him, but they still haven’t found him even after fifteen minutes have passed since the test started.

As if losing his patience, Principal Greenwood stood up.

“It’s unavoidable. This match is canceled. I’ll prepare Haruto’s opponent separately, and we’ll start with the second match.”

“Wai…… it can’t be helped”

Haruto scratched the back of his head and left the practice field.

I’m getting a bad feeling about this —— Just as Haruto had this premonition, he heard the sound of flapping wings coming from somewhere.

——Owl?

A lone owl with a mixture of black and white feathers flies over Haruto’s head. At that moment, a piece of paper hovers into the air.

The paper fluttered down, and Haruto caught it with his fingertips.

This is ……?

『Underground Chapel』

That’s all it said.

From who the hell is this?

Is this an invitation from Iris?

Or maybe someone is looking for help, or perhaps it’s a trap.

“I guess I’ll just have to go there……”

Haruto then started to run.

The underground chapel, is a now disused facility located near the clock tower. It’s the remnant of the Grand Magia Magic Sorcery Academy, which was initially used as a church. There are plans afoot to use it as a magic training classroom, but right now it’s supposed to be a run-down, empty stone basement.

I ran down the stairs and opened the door to reveal a high-ceilinged room with cold air.

“Vario!?”

At the back of the room, Vario was lying down tied up. And, the one stomping on Vario and smiling sadistically at him was——,

“……Leina” (TN: I somehow know this all along)

Her hair tied up as usual, her face, and her uniform, were all of Leina Darian. However, her expression and atmosphere were different. In her hand, she lowered her sword and thrust it at Vario.

“I never thought you were one of the members of Prospero”

“Ufufu, a successful prank, huh? Ara, it looks like we have all the actors.”

At that moment, Iris came running in.

“Haruto-kun! That’s …… what the heck!?”

Leina chuckled, a wicked and bewitching smile on her face.

“Greetings again. I am Prospero’s Millennium. The director of the tragic love story between two people. Please to meet you.”

“No way…… Leina, you are……”

Leina lightly poked Vario in the chest with the sword in her hand.

“I kept him alive because I needed him to move freely in the academy, but finally, I no longer needed this little guy …… I’m thinking of killing him.”

“Wait! Why do you need to kill Vario!? We’re the ones who you needed!”

“Look, this little boy was trying to marry Iris-sama, the 『Demon King’s Half Body(Juliet) 』, without even knowing what he was, you know? Without knowing his position…… I can’t believe it.”

“I see…… so your purpose is——”

“Yes. It’s the resurrection of the Demon King. We at Prospero will never forgive those who try to break the two of you apart.”

“I never thought we’d be mediated by an evil secret society. ……”

Haruto smiled bitterly.

“But, we’re not at your beck and call.”

“That’s right! We want to protect the world, and my relationship with Haruto-kun. To that end, we have to defeat you!”

“Fuhn, so you’re just gonna let him die?”

Millennium puts more strength into her hand holding the sword. The tip of the sword dug into Vario’s uniform, smearing out red stains.

“Wait!”

When Haruto shouted, Millennium said with a sadistic look on her face.

“Get on with it and have sex. Right here, right now.” (TN: Nice)

“Kuh…… what cowardice……”

Iris bit her lip in frustration.

“Ah! Good! I like your expression. I’m thrilled!”

“That …… sex…… even if she told us to do it, since we don’t have a bed, what should we do”

Millennium responds ruthlessly to Iris asking as if she was excusing herself away.

“Why don’t you just do it standing up?”

“Such……”

Iris endured the humiliation with tears in her eyes.

“Haruto-kun……”

Iris hugged Haruto’s neck as if she had made up her mind.

“O,oy, Iris!?”

Haruto tried to pull away, but Iris didn’t let go of her hand and whispered in his ear.

“Let’s buy some time. Delay it …… let’s wait for a chance.”

“……Roger that. But is it alright?”

When Iris pulled away from Haruto, she stared into his eyes.

“We can’t lose…… to the pleasure!”

Iris let go of her hand and turned her back on Haruto.

“But…… If I look at your face, I’m going to lose it very quickly, so…… with this, I think I can bear it”

“I understand”

Millennium clicked her tongue impatiently at their inability to start.

“What’s taking you so long? Hurry up and pounce on her!”

Shit! She’s just saying something she likes!

Haruto ran his hands over Iris’ stomach from behind and held her close.

“A……hn”

“What lukewarm things are you doing! Are you a virgin by any chance? If you’re a man, you should suck her tits! Tits! Since her big tits aren’t for decorations!”

Kuh…… I have to endure for now. And Iris, too, I’m sorry, but you’re going to have to endure this.

Haruto touched Iris’ breasts, lifting them from below.

“Tu……!!”

I,it’s so soft!

He felt the faint firmness of her underwear. The soft object underneath it generally speaking. When he put pressure on his fingertips, it obediently changed its shape.

The change and the feel of it captivated Haruto’s hand.

Tu! This isn’t good, I get carried away.

Listening carefully, I can hear Iris’ suffocating sigh.

“Nn…… haa…… ah”

……This is bad. It seems that the synergistic effect will make me in trouble.

“Haruto……kun”

He felt guilty, even though he didn’t like the sound of her painful voice squeezing out.

Iris is desperately trying to endure the pleasure. Her face, turned slightly over his shoulder.

An indulgent smile was on her uplifted cheeks.

The light in her eyes is shaped as hearts —— Eh!?

“Haruto-kun? Just a little…… stronger❤️”

You’re losing too fast!

Seeing the change in Iris, Millennium burst into laughter.

“Ahahahahahaha! Good! You’re going to make a splendid b*tch! Hahaha, in that sense, you and this little young master might have been a good match!”

Dammit! I’m going to blow that wore away later!!

“This boy-a, definitely has the qualities of a pig, just like his father. As expected of a nobleman, you can’t fight blood.”

“……”

——Wait.

This girl……

Just now, what did she say?

You can’t fight blood is it…… That’s what they’re playing at that party.

Leina——did she know about that?

No …… perhaps,

This tone.

This personality ……!!

It’s the one who was tormenting Vario’s father for the SM play, that woman……huh?

But the SM queen is clearly not the same person as Leina.

By the time she was with us, she was already enjoying playing with Vario’s father.

If so…… this Millennium, who the hell is she?

I remember Leina before she came to the academy.

She has a somewhat sad expression on her face as she asks Iris to take care of Vario.

The look of happiness on her face when she saw Vario again.

When Haruto took a deep breath,

“Leinaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

He shouted suddenly.

“Wha……”

Millennium, in the form of Leina, looked at Haruto as if she was feigning ignorance.

“Wake up! Leina!!”

His shouting brought Iris back to her senses.

“Ha……Haruto-kun?”

Her eyes fluttered and she looked back at Haruto.

“Maybe Leina is just being manipulated. I don’t know what kind of magic it is, but Prospero’s Millennium has taken over her body. And!”

Haruto then pointed at Millennium.

(TN: I wonder who she really was)
