Or maybe it’s because she saw his true nature? After seeing Sylphy’s happy face, I would feel bad about getting Rudeus tangled in my struggle for power.
I want Sylphy to be happy.
It does not seem likely for me to be able to grasp happiness, but she is just a child who got tangled up in my struggle for power.
She has no responsibility as a noble, nor like Luke who has sworn loyalty to me.
She is just helping me out of friendship.
She has no need to go as far as to lie in her blood for my sake.
She better leave at some point and have a happy life as a girl.
Sylphy may not accept it.
She, being aware of her position as my ally, did her best, but her love for Rudeus might be a good opportunity.
Me behaving like this is probably because Rudeus would be a very good ally to have.
He is a good guy to leave Sylphy’s life, my friend’s life, in his hands.
Forgetting Sylphy is a minus, but let’s leave it at that. [16]
Well, the problem is Sylphy’s love, I don’t know how much she loves him, but seeing no progress is very irritating.
Even after a year of spending time together, it has not progressed at all, that kind of love is the problem.
Dense Rudeus and awkward Sylphy.
It’s very frustrating to watch these two.
I thought Sylphy was more impatient. Sylphy does not seem to be aware, but it’s not unthinkable for Rudeus to go out with anyone else at anytime.
For example, Pursena and Rinia.
Though they don’t seem to be conscious of Rudeus for now, who knows what might happen in 1-2 more years.
And there is “Silent” as well.
That grumpy masked woman is helping Rudeus with research.
Based on Sylphy’s story, they don’t have that kind of relationship at the moment, but being together for a long time, who knows what might happen.
While Sylphy is dilly-dallying, Rudeus might be taken by someone else...
No, he will be taken.
At the least, there is no reason for him to refrain because of Fitts, since he only asked [Are you a woman?] to the cross-dressing Fitts. It does not mean anything.
Hmm.
But that means, he at least noticed that Fitts is a woman.
I thought he was a dense person, but there is the possibility that he was aware and kept it to himself.
No, it is possible that he knew our situation and kept it to himself to not cause us any problems.
Assuming that’s the situation, then is it my fault?
Am I the one getting in the way of Sylphy’s love?
(Right, I need to... stop holding her back.)
Then, I need to support her love.
