1st Person POV (Ekaterina)

I was simply unattractive, but sometimes strange guys would flirt with me, and my friends would accuse me of going for that one without going for the others… I never went for the others, and I never went for them, you know?

In this life, I had been a boxed-in girl and imprisoned.

I couldn’t believe in love or men when I remembered my mother, who was in love with me but never rewarded me.

My big brother was the only person I felt safe with.

So, I guess Ekaterina, the daughter of this life, was deeply rooted in her brocon.

This was the first time I was aware of it.

But I did my best yesterday!

After the test results came in, I got two more of the prototype transparent glass pens that Rev gave me for my use, and I called Flora-chan and the prince to give them as gifts.

I hope we can continue to work hard together as good rivals.

I felt uncomfortable using something so convenient when I was studying with Flora-chan all the time.

So I figured that if I could involve the prince in celebrating the top three, Flora-chan would accept it without hesitation.

The prince worked hard, and I thought it would be nice to commemorate him.

However, it was still a child, even with his status as a prince.

…I thought it would be a good idea to give a prototype to the prince, but he was still a child despite his status.

I think it would be wrong to give him an expensive finished product just to commemorate his hard work.

Both of them were happy.

Well, I gave the prince a big pen with the exact specifications as big brother’s pen, and I was a little surprised to see that his hands were about the same size as big brother’s.

The prince was also quite tall, but maybe he will grow even more in the future? Or did he grow taller compared to when he first entered the school?

Anyway, we had a chat about our plans for the summer vacation.

I heard from my big brother that the prince would visit Yurinova territory in the latter half of the vacation, so naturally, we talked about it.

And

I suggested to Flora-chan.

[If you don’t mind, Flora-sama, why don’t you come with Mikhael-sama to our territory? I’m so sad that I won’t be able to see you until next semester.]

[I’m also sad that I won’t be able to see you, Ekaterina-sama. But, I can’t possibly…]

Yeah, I was afraid to be with the prince.

I couldn’t ask for such a thing, could I?

Chira.

Chira-chira.

[Uh…Flora, if you don’t mind, I’d like you to come with me to Yurinova territory. Because traveling is more fun when you have a companion.]

Yes!

[I’m sorry that I have to be the one to accompany you, but if you feel that way…]

[Of course, I mean it. I’ve felt that you and I should have a long talk.]

Good.

All right, all right!

When big brother told me that the prince was coming to the territory, I thought, “What should I do?” I thought.

A pinch means a chance! This opportunity should assist in bringing the Prince and Flora-chan closer together.

A trip together could be the perfect event to raise the level of intimacy between the two of them.

A special event created by a villainess!

I think this was an excellent assist for me.

I will do my best!

There was one more thing that surprised me during our chat.

When I told him that I had made the glass pen a birthday present for my big brother, she suddenly asked me.

[When is your birthday, Mikhael-sama?]

[It’s the tenth of April. It’s long past.]

What?

Right after the entrance ceremony? When I was absent from class because I collapsed?

Eeeeeeh, so that means.

[Mikhael-sama, you’re 16 years old?]

[Yeah, didn’t you know?]

I didn’t know.
