『 Hmm, you see. I wonder if this is working? 』
I hear Nia’s small voice, which isn’t likely to be heard by those around her.
The rustling noises were probably because she was touching the microphone.
The noise faded away and Nia’s body turned to face the front, then I saw some boys and girls in uniforms who looked a year or two older than her sitting at desks in front.
『 Err, before we start our lessons, I’ll introduce someone to you all. You see, this is Miss Euphilite, she will be attending this school for a short time starting today. Err, she’s been ill recently so can she endure the school life this time? 』
The voice coming off-screen sounds like an old man in terms of voice quality.
I wonder if it’s the deterioration of the vocal cords from aging, but his voice seems shaky.
『 Err, usually, we don’t allow attendants, but she’s still sick, please understand, Well then, please give your greetings, Miss Euphilite 』
When Euphy’s prompted to greet, the perspective shifted, then I see Euphy in her uniform in the foreground, and behind her is an old man with long white hair and an equally long white beard.
『 I’m Euphilite. Pleased to meet you all 』
Euphy’s wearing a navy blue blazer and skirt with gold embroidery everywhere. She introduced herself with her usual narrow eyes, showing her strong will, and a low tone.
Hmm, she’s acting as a sickly-looking girl beautifully.
If she’s doing it since they first met her, then they’ll never know that it’s an act.
After the greeting, she’s urged to take her seat.
The viewpoint follows behind her as she moves.
Making their way through the boys and girls who were looking with a variety of emotions in their eyes, they arrived at an open seat at the back of the room and I found Silka-chan next to her.
「 Hey, Daiki-nii, is it going well? 」
Nia hugs me from behind as I sit on the bed, looking over my shoulder.
「 Yeah, this is perfect. The audio has no problems at all 」
「 Yeah, I hear it nicely. Hey, why aren’t we watching together with Euphy-nee? 」
Nia, still clinging to me, asks Euphy who was in her uniform, sitting a short distance away.
「 I’ll pass 」
「 Why? We see Euphy-nee here 」
「 I’m embarrassed to see myself… Nia’s not there so you don’t think about it 」
So that’s why, we were looking at the tablet screen together earlier and she suddenly moved away.
「 I feel you. You never get the chance to see yourself in motion. But, Euphy in here looks cute. It looks so good I could watch it forever. I’ll keep this video forever and enjoy it in my old age 」
「 If Daiki-sama says so. Is it not weird? 」
「 Yeah, Euphy’s cute even through the screen. But, I don’t want just this Euphy, but also the real Euphy. Come, sit here 」
Her criteria for everything is heavily influenced by me.
I praised her and her shame eased up, then she sat next to me.
I pressed the play button on the tablet and showed the school life that began the day.
Hmm?
The scene changed.
This must be the hallway?
Euphy and several girls were facing each other in what appears to be a long and narrow passageway.
『 Good day, Euphilite-sama. I’m Sabrina, the eldest daughter of Count Hyde. You should already know that the Hyde House is affiliated with the Marquis de Blaureite House, so if you have any troubles, just consult me 』
Ooh.
Here’s a young lady with slightly darker straight blonde hair and a very aristocratic look.
She looks at least two years older than Euphy, so she must be a senior.
The girl in front of the group did her greetings, and the others followed.
Seems like they’re all daughters of families affiliated with the Blaureite house.
Seems like they approached Euphy because they see her as someone from the same faction.
These ladies don’t feel any discomfort that Euphy suddenly popped up.
Maybe it’s not that rare for the nobility to pop out of nowhere.
Looking at the faces of the noble ladies, their ages are quite varied.
This might be why the school doesn’t accept students at a certain age.
Still, all the girls have nice facial features.
There are a few non-elves, and they’re all beautiful.
Even if they’re not within my preference, I think that they have good faces, which is great.
If I were there, I’d definitely smell them.
After everyone gave their greetings, the ladies began their roundabout conversations.
Euphy handles it with ease, I guess she’s used to this kind of conversation.
They’re roundabout with their speech, but I somehow figured out what they’re saying.
Must be because Japan also has quite a lot of euphemisms.
As the conversations settled down, the one who seemed like the leader who had spoken first to Euphy gave a wry smile as if she was making an estimation.
『 Still, I was surprised at how well you and Silka-sama got along. You know it Euphilite-sama, and yet you still socialize with her? 』
Oh, we’re on Sikla-chan now.
When she says that she’s surprised, she makes a blatantly disgusted face, which I guess means that they don’t like it.
They don’t seem to have a good impression of her.
In response to that, Euphy kept her smile.
『 I’m grateful to Silka-sama and Duke Carlitz’ for their hospitality. Is there a problem with keeping her company? 』
『 You know that she’s engaged to the second prince, don’t you, Euphilite-sama? Then you must at least know that she’s likely to be at odds with us in the future 』
『 I see. Is that so? I spent a lot of time bedridden so I was out of touch with the affairs. But it was Marquis de Blaureite who introduced the Duke de Carlitz, wasn’t he? If that’s the case, is it just to express such sentiments? 』
『 Huh? Is that so? What’s the Marquis thinking? Perhaps the story about using neutral families to strike a balance was true… 』
Sabrina-chan seemed surprised by Euphy’s answer, she mumbled and spoke to herself.
At first, I couldn’t figure out what she was saying, but after playing it several times with the volume turned up, I finally heard what she was mumbling.
The Duke of Darlitz is a neutral noble.
What could that balance be?
Well, I guess she means balance between factions, but I don’t know.
Then they returned to the otherworldly conversations and after a while, the ladies moved on.
The video ended with a shot of their backs.
「 This is well done, I think I’m good at this 」
「 Yeah, good job recording. I’m glad Nia took it 」
「 Right? But that’s the end for today. Others wanted to talk to her, but Euphy-nee made a face and they ran away 」
「 Boys? 」
「 Yeah. How did you know? 」
「 If they talk to her again, make sure to film it 」
「 I don’t think we need to worry about Euphy-nee 」
Even I don’t need to worry about Euphy with that skill of hers.
But, I just want to remember who talked to her and acted pissed.
I’m narrow-minded when it comes to men, even if they’re kids.
Well then, if you’re asking what’s the video that’s been on my tablet for a while now, it’s a video of the school I had Nia take a sneak peek at.
I bought a so-called action camera when we went to Japan the other day and took pictures with it, then I had it hidden in Nia’s maid uniform, behind the shoulder straps of her apron.
The camera part can be detached and used by itself to take photos, and even though it’s just the size of a thumb, the picture quality is beautiful enough, it also has image stabilization, so the screen isn’t blurred at all.
I’m amazed at the evolution of a tool I never used before.
When I say action cameras, I think of the more rugged black ones.
Its only problem is that it shoots short due to its small size.
I guess it’s supposed to be recharged every often or something, but that’s hard to do.
So, I asked Nia to press the record button only if something was about to happen.
That’s why the video’s disconnected.
The truth is, I would like to know everything about her school life, but I’m sure that there are times when even both of them don’t want me to watch.
Private conversations, or going to the toilet for example.
Hmm.
Toilets?
Nia seems to be uncomfortable with it, but I think Euphy will allow it?
I’m sure that she’d rather die than show the big one, but if I bowed my head, she’d probably let me watch her pee.
No, I don’t want to drink or have a shower with it, that’s not my fetish.
I just want to see the look of embarrassment on their faces while they pee.
Yep, just a bit.
Oops, my thoughts are going away.
Euphy stares at me, wondering what’s wrong because I stopped moving.
That cute face made me feel guilty, even though I just imagined it.
Still, I lamented that I couldn’t go directly to the school, but this might be good.
After all, no matter how much I look at the ladies through the camera with lewd eyes, nobody will blame me.
Rather, I could see the girls at such a realistic distance that I feel this is better.
Yep, that’s for sure.
