Since when did I become Curtis-sama’s favorite?
I was still in disbelief when Mel interjected.
“Aliali is like that, she’s not like Liz Cather, she’s more of a charmer.”
“That’s the first time anyone’s ever called me a charmer.”
There should be no one in this school who was hated as much as I was.
“Does Mel want to go out with Curtis-sama?”
I asked Mel a simple question.
She turned unusually red and said, “No, I don’t!”.
I was glad that Mel could also act like a normal girl, because I had thought that she was not interested in love at all.
“You’re kind of cute, you know.”
“No! That’s not true!”
Mel was flustered by my words.
I wondered if it was love that made everyone lose control of their emotions.
After a while, Mel calmed down and started chatting with me.
“I like Curtis, who likes Aliali, but it’s not like I am asking for Curtis’s favor to be directed towards me.”
I had always felt a childishness from Mel, but the way she spoke so effortlessly like this seemed very mature.
Giving up on someone you love was a very difficult thing to do.
As long as you have time with that person, as long as you could see them, hear them, talk to them, you could never give up on them so easily.
Having someone you love within arm’s reach was difficult.
“…But you don’t have to act so mature so soon, you know?”
Gilles said to Mel.
The more one grows up, the more one starts to see things that one couldn’t notice before.
But the flip side was also the same. Sometimes we become blinded by our own stereotypes and rules.
“What is Mel’s greatest desire?”
I asked her, and she thought for a moment before opening her mouth.
“I want him to know that I liked him. …However, I alsos don’t want him to think that I have serious feelings for him.”
“We’ll do our best to push Mel forward.”
I said and Gilles shifted his gaze to me.
“Are you doing it as Villainess?”
Surely, we were supposed to be in a meeting on how I could earn Villainess points earlier…
But I didn’t want to be Villainess for Mel and Curtis-sama, I felt like I’d be wasting my time if I acted as a Villainess for them.
“It’s okay to be a woman who moves for her friends once in a while, you know?”
I smiled at Gilles, and he shook his head happily, “Yes!”
As long as I was in Duelkis Kingdom, I would honestly support Mel’s love.
She had helped me all this time. I wouldn’t want to be the kind of person who forgets a favor, it would ruin me as a Villainess.
