It has been decided that I will be marrying Ruijerd-san.
It was quite a sudden experience.
I answered earnestly to my brother’s various enquiries, after which he pulled Ruijerd-san along with him in no less than 10 days. Ruijerd-san then confessed his love for me and asked my hand in marriage.
The talk moved forward as my mind was still in a daze, the marriage ceremony was to be carried out after 10 more days.
Brother and Ruijerd-san were steadily making progress.
My job was to create a marriage dress along with the Superd women. A very Superd like dress which looked similar to what Ruijerd-san always wore.
It seemed that the marriage would be carried out in Superd style.
I wished that I would get to do it in Milis style, but stressing the fact that I would be the one going to Ruijerd-san’s place as his bride, I wasn’t reluctant. All the Superd people were good-natured as well, and I honestly didn’t want anything more than this.
Ruijerd-san would probably not like being kissed on his forehead in public.
Brother told me that he would take care of it and I could only be grateful for that.
But, maybe, if I only wished for just the Milis Necklace then maybe... Should I ask for it… ?
I’m pretty sure this might be my last chance to request something selfish from my brother.
“...”
I was currently in the middle of clearing out my room as I was pondering about such things.
The room that I have been living in almost everyday together with Aisha after being brought along by Ruijerd-san. Since I had been living in the dormitory for so long my attachment with the dorm room was stronger than this one.
But I realized that various memories dwelled within this room as I was clearing things out one-by-one.
The doll of Ruijerd-san created by Zanoba-senpai. I was very moved the first time I saw it and ended up asking for it, after which I placed it in my dorm room. Even Nii-san did not say anything.
Someway or another, gazing at this doll became my daily habit. It wasn’t an exact replica of Ruijerd-san but it was still similar to him. I kept wishing that I could see him again, watching this doll everyday.
And then the wooden sword. The sword I received from Eris-neesan which I swung almost everyday because of the training I received from her.
I hadn’t really progressed that much, and I knew that I didn’t have much talent for it, but it was fine.
Swinging a sword is quite fun and it wasn’t like I wished to be the world’s strongest. No one in Sharia said something ridiculous like ‘You don’t have talent so forget about it!’. Of course, that list also included Nii-san and even Eris-neesan, Sylphy-neesan and Roxy-neesan… not even Zanoba-senpai or Cliff-senpai said something like that. Even though each and everyone of them were extremely gifted, they didn’t say anything.
I now know how wonderful a thing they did for me and I am grateful for that. And I also understand that even though I did not have any talent, giving your all and working hard is what really mattered. If not for that I would have never become the Student Council President.
In the Student Council where I became the President, none of them had any talent. To some teachers, and even during the first part of the year, we were known as the Stupid Student Council. But only Vice Principal Jinas said ‘The students are getting along well, even better than during Ariel’s Presidency’.
Actually, it seemed that crimes and violence among students were few during my time as President…
It was possible that I just got lucky, but I think that it was because we didn’t have any talent.
It was because we were dumb, we could be considerate of the students.
Because we were dumb, the students could be considerate of us. They would think that they had no choice but to help us out.
