When we arrived at the Anastasia family mansion, I was brought to Charlotte san’s room by Charlotte san, who sat me down in a chair …… with both wrists frozen in ice magic.
“…….”
As I had learned in a previous lecture, ice magic could be melted by fire magic, but of course there was no way I could do that because if I did that in the mansion, the chair and the mansion itself might burn.
Charlotte san sat down opposite me and began to speak, unable to see what kind of emotion she was feeling.
“Al, just so you know, if you have something to hide, tell me between now and then, okay? Because if you don’t tell me now and I find out later that you’re hiding something from me, I’ll do something terrible.”
……There is a secret, it’s that I was in a previous life.
But even if I told Charlotte san that now, nothing would change the situation, so there would be no need to say anything.
“Yes, I have nothing to hide.”
“…… I see, then I’ll ask you right off the bat,──── what did you mean earlier?”
“…… earlier?”
Charlotte-san says with a slightly stern expression on her face.
“The girl asked earlier, ‘Are you in such a situation yourself right now, Feal sama?’ Al answered, ‘Something like that,’ right? What do you mean, Al is not Aruto-kun, but he feels that way?”
Well, all the conversations with that female student are being listened to ……, which is pretty bad, but ──── I can escape as much as I want.
“As you say, it’s not really about me…The person Charlotte-san likes is someone who has nothing to do with me.”
“You could have completely denied it without the ambiguity, couldn’t you?”
“I really feel sorry for the person that Charlotte san likes,……, and if that person is found, I’ll be living under the same roof, so maybe I felt a little compassion for him.”
“Sympathy…… But you’re talking about yourself, right? When you say that, do you even feel that way even if you have compassion?”
“I said so.”
The tense atmosphere of the questioning and the fact that both wrists were immobilized caused me to reply a little brusquely.
Then, Charlotte san continued,
“What I have to ask is, why did Al blur his words when he should have denied it completely?”
“The words were somehow said in the flow of the conversation ────.”
“There is that possibility, and there is another possibility…For example, Al is Al in this world, so in that sense he is different from Aruto kun, so if someone ask you if you are in that situation, you would say no, then why did you use blurred words? It’s just that it’s not the case at this stage, but you can also think that it’s because there is a possibility that it will become that way someday.”
I felt that she was able to see through people’s hearts to the extent that I thought that this is what a person who stands above others means…However, what we must not forget here is that Charlotte san just saying it’s a possibility, not a certainty.
That is why Charlotte san is going out of her way to tell me about it…… then.
“I suppose you could think that way, but I don’t.”
“Hmmm……… Well, one more thing, when asked why he wanted to convince her, Al said, ‘For the future with that person,’ what was that?”
“I’m Charlotte san’s butler, and in the future I will be involved in the relationship between Charlotte san and the person she likes.”
“Would you say it’s for someone’s future with that person, just because you’ll be indirectly involved?”
“I said so……”
…..There will never be any solid evidence that it’s me.
I know that,……, but this feeling of being cornered is somewhat chilling.
As I was feeling this way, Charlotte san said with a slightly gloomy expression on her face.
“I…I really want Al to be with Aruto kun, so maybe it’s just my imagination that I’m trying to find Aruto kun in Al now….Still, I want Al to stay with Aruto-kun…because I love both Aruto-kun and Al.”
When Charlotte san said before, ‘I’m sure Al is him,’ I said that person is not me.
The reason is that I had no idea that Charlotte san was Reijo san and that the person she liked was me in a previous life, Aruto.
But …… now, Because I am the one who knows best that I am the one, Charlotte-san’s words sound very heartbreaking…And then, Charlotte-san says that she is also in love with Feal
“Al…please, let me ask you something? Al, are you really not Aruto kun?”
