"——Of course it's her!"

An Luo pointed at Saya who was still on the ground without thinking, and directly betrayed the girl who was his companion less than a minute ago.

"ah.............!"

The short-haired girl who was knocked to the ground by the strong wind didn't care about her companion's stab in the back and didn't even look at him at all. She was looking at Irena with her eyes wide open. Not only was her face flushed, but her fiery gaze was almost too intense. Even though he was about to burn someone, he slowly covered his mouth with his hands, and the corners of his mouth also turned up sharply, unable to stop his smile.

"...."

Irena was a friend she had known in the past, but had not known her for a long time. This overly intense gaze made Irena not sure what to think and express, so she could only respond with an expressionless face and a wordless expression.

The two of them continued to look at each other, and unknowingly they began to pull their cheeks to confirm that this was not a dream. Saya's eyes were filled with tears, and she clasped her hands on her chest as if to thank the gods. On the other hand, Irena was speechless. He closed his eyes and sighed.

then......

"——Miss Irena~!!"

Saya suddenly jumped up from the floor, opened her hands and ran away with moved tears, and hugged him directly...yes, him.

Because... An Luo, who felt neglected, forgot about his existence in order to prevent the two from falling into a world of two. At the last stage when they looked at each other, that is when Saya jumped up, closed her eyes and rushed towards her. , subconsciously moved a step to the side.

He thought Saya would stop immediately, but who knew... She hugged him with her eyes closed the whole time.

"——I didn't expect to meet Miss Irena here! Is this fate? This is fate, right! This is the only way to get married~!"

Shaye, who was full of emotion, hugged An Luo and rubbed her shaking head against his chest, as if she wanted to replenish Irena's energy.

This scene made Irena, who came out from behind An Luo and wanted to separate the two of them, unconsciously shed cold sweat on her forehead. She opened her mouth slightly and didn't know what to say. She just thought that she might better not deal with Shaye first. good.

...

Hugging An Luo, who subconsciously raised his hands, and Saya, who was still rubbing her cheek against the clothes on his chest, when she was ignored by Irena who turned her back again, she couldn't help it for a moment as if she felt something. He stretched out his hand, groped around An Luo's back and said in confusion:

"Okay, that's strange. Miss Irena...has she suddenly grown a lot? Is her waist a lot thicker? The feeling of holding her is much different from before...? Come to think of it. Was Miss Lena originally so hard? No, overall she is soft but compared to before..."

"Of course, because I'm not Irena, so if you want to hug me, can you please stop touching my butt? Are you taking the opportunity to take advantage of me?"

Although it was not what he expected, An Luo, who felt inexplicably interesting, allowed the other party to fumble behind him, and finally couldn't help but speak when her hand was placed on his butt.

The sudden sound from above made Shaye raise her head suddenly. She looked at An Luo who was bowing her head and was stunned for a moment. Then she quickly let go of him and jumped back. She raised her finger and pointed at him in horror: "——Miss Irena Became a man?!!”

".....I'm here....."

Next to her, Irena, who couldn't bear to look at her and covered her face, raised her hand slightly after letting out a deep sigh.

.... The crowd watching the men's fight not far away all moved their gazes here because of Saya's incredible scream.

But the scene here was very embarrassing for a while, and An Luo silently moved his eyes away to look at the street, sizing up the city and experiencing the sea breeze blowing in his face.

As he was changing his mind to consider unimportant things, aside...

"Miss Irena~~~!" After seeing Irena again, Shaye, who was originally frightened, was stunned at first, and then after a short pause, he immediately rushed forward and grabbed her raised hand, as if to avoid Tragedy happened again and he stared into her eyes and said very seriously: "Get married!"

"Eh, eh?...Your mood recovered so quickly..." Irena pretended not to hear the word "marriage" she said, and said with a somewhat ugly smile: " Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since we last met, how have you been during this time?”

"It's great! Thanks to this hat and... this baby." Shaye stroked the hat on his head with a smile, then took out the handkerchief sealed in a translucent bag from his pocket and showed it to Irena In front of me, while caressing her gently, she affirmed with emotion: "Thanks to these two things, I have gained unprecedented power! I have become a witch!"

"What's wrong with this handkerchief?" An Luo, who felt ignored again, couldn't help but interjected. Irena, who was sweating again on her forehead, said uncertainly: "If I'm not mistaken, this seems to be me. For Miss Shaye..."

"That's right! Miss Irena gave this to me when we first met!"

"Is that so?" Irena's mouth twitched slightly and she didn't know how to respond. She was too frank and overly kind to Saya.

You must know that she left the land of magicians on the morning of the sixth day. In fact, the time she and Saya spent together was only 5 days, so she had no reason to think about why Saya liked her so much and wanted to get married. Not very understanding.

"Speaking of which, Miss Irena..."

Saya carefully put away the handkerchief and glared at An Luo.

"What?"

"Do you know this strange person? Didn't he get deceived by a bad guy?"

"...Why are you staring at me with such strange eyes at this time?" An Luo, who was stared at innocently, was speechless. At the same time, he brought up magic resistance to break the barrier and corrected him: "I am Yi Lei. He is the guardian appointed by Na's parents when Irena goes out. He is responsible for managing everything she does outside. He is also the person who watched Irena grow up. Even if he is not related by blood, he can be said to be Irena's brother. I think so myself. At the same time, Irena’s parents also approve of this relationship, so...don’t you think your statement is too rude to your friend’s brother?”

"You, are you actually Miss Irena's brother?!"

Saya suddenly changed her previous displeasure and immediately stood up straight and reached out to him. With a very polite and excited smile, she grabbed his hand and apologized, while introducing herself again:

"——I'm sorry, brother! It's all my fault! Please forgive me! I'm Saya, the charcoal witch. I'm currently working in the Magical Integration Association. Although the job is not stable, the salary is sometimes good. So...please allow me to marry Miss Irena, I will definitely work hard to make money and do my best to make her happy!"

"Hmm~ Looks serious?"

An Luo nodded as if he was considering it seriously. Irena, who turned around sharply next to her, was very surprised at how he seamlessly connected with Shaye's sudden change of topic.

"Of course! I truly love Miss Irena!"

"Then show your sincerity first?"

"Are you sincere? Well...how should I do this?"

Shaye lowered his head in genuine annoyance, thinking about how to show his sincerity. Just when Irena was about to say something, An Luo quickly took out the bread stored in the different space, stuffed it into her mouth accurately and quickly, and blocked it. He patted Saya on the head and said in a slightly harsher tone to the girl who was covering her head: "Is your head made of wood?! Of course you have to show off your financial resources at this time! Invite me to dinner and drinks. !”

"Ah, yes! I'm sorry! Brother is right! Let's go to eat now! I saw a nice restaurant on the way here! I'm treating you! Brother, order whatever you want!"

Faced with the sudden change of role to An Luo, Saya had no temper at all, and jumped ahead because she got a direction to work hard.

"An Luo...Did mom and dad really leave me to you?" Irena took the bread out of her mouth and looked at Shaye in front of her with an unbelievable look, and then looked at Looking at An Luo next to him: "They...really let you take care of everything about me outside??"

"Of course."

"How could it be?!... Could it be that... are you really my child? - father's illegitimate son?!"

"No! What kind of imagination are you talking about? It's just a long-lasting acquaintance, and you have won their trust!"

"...If that's the case, then it's completely misjudged and blamed..."

Irena, who had known that An Luo had a good relationship with her parents in the past, had no way to confirm with her parents whether the authorization was genuine, but in this country where there was no way to lie, she could only believe in someone with a lot of realistic basis. fact".

...

...

Due to Saya's too sudden proposal and An Luo's officially authorized guardian, Irena had mixed feelings and subconsciously followed her to a nearby tavern.

"Come on, come on! Brother, this wine is said to be the best here! You're welcome!"

Shaye poured wine for An Luo with a smile on her face and enthusiasm. An Luo also put on the airs of a parent and raised his head slightly, enjoying her considerate service with a hint of arrogance.

Of course...he just planned to eat Saya for free and enjoy the service of the beautiful girl. As for other things...he didn't seem to have promised anything, right?

Irena, who sat next to him, knew exactly what An Luo was thinking, but she didn't stop him and even ordered a plate of fish.

After all, she was often wanted by some countries for fraud during her journey, and when she thought something was very expensive, she would use magic to disguise copper coins as gold coins to pay for it, so it didn't make any sense to her to have a meal by the way. Burden, you can also take this opportunity to get a little revenge. In the past, Saya knocked him away and took his witch badge.

But while waiting for the meal, she was holding her forehead with one hand. She felt a little headache at An Luo's bad taste, and she also felt sorry for Saya's wallet. After all, she was now an acquaintance or a friend... ...

However... Although An Luo was indeed very happy with this meal, when it came time to pay the bill...

"Hello, I'll give you a small change, a total of one gold coin and seven silver coins."

The waiter came to Saya, put the bill on the table with a smile, and reported the amount of their consumption. Saya, who had always been smiling, disappeared, patted the table and stood up: "Hey, so Is it expensive?!”

"Because most of the food and drinks you order are relatively expensive."

"wait wait wait......"

Shaye hurriedly took out his wallet and poured out the metal coins in it. The silver coins and copper coins were put together, but he couldn't even pay half of the seven silver coins. The total value was only three silver coins.

It was at this time that she recovered from her brain-heated state. She remembered that she had bought very expensive things before, and now she was quite short of money... That was why she went to work in the association.

"...What should I do about this, what should I do about this?! I'm going to make a fool of myself in front of my brother!!" Saya put her head in her hands and whined. At this time, Irena smiled and said: "It's okay, Miss Shaye, An Luo will pay."

"No, this, isn't this bad?! I invited my brother..."

"You made a mistake. This guy didn't agree to you at the beginning. Normally, this means that he didn't actually intend to agree to you, he was just playing tricks on you."

"How could it be! My brother is not this kind of person! My brother is Miss Irena's brother! As long as I pay, I will definitely let you, Miss Irena, give it to me! Or I can marry you!" Suddenly, Shaye cast his sincere and trusting eyes on An Luo, and said with hope: "Brother! What I said is right!"

"...Uh...cough..."

The excessive amount of pure trust made An Luo feel a little burned. He looked away awkwardly and looked out the window. In order not to reveal that he could lie, he did not answer the question, and in order not to destroy the girl's trust in him, he could only endure the pain. He took out the stolen money that he and Irena had swindled together and divided it in half and put it on the table.

"Unfortunately, even if I paid for this meal, you have not fulfilled my request and do not even have the most basic financial resources. How can you make Irena happy?"

"No, don't say that! Brother! Please give me another chance! I will definitely work hard!"

"Stop talking! It's impossible for you!"

"——Brother! Don't leave! Give me another chance!"

She was about to cry... even Shaye, who had already cried, hugged An Luo's hand and refused to let him leave here.

He accidentally shot himself in the foot. He wanted to take advantage of others but was taken advantage of. In a real sense, he paid for the meal while others were treating him. This made him feel very depressed and shook his hand away hard: "——I gave you a chance, yes. You are not sure about yourself! I will not allow you to continue to communicate with each other! Stop pestering Irena, you will have no future!"

An Luo, who was in a bad mood, was like an overbearing parent who beat a mandarin duck. After leaving these words, he ignored the frustration and loss on Sha Ye's face, and walked out of the restaurant quickly while enduring the depression of the loss of money and the complete failure of the plan. .

Just as he was walking out of the restaurant, he glanced at the window inadvertently, and his mood felt inexplicably comfortable again.

The window dimly reflected the scenery outside, but the reflection reflected in the glass showed Saya's depressed look.

It was Saya's appearance that made him suddenly realize that the money was actually well spent. He couldn't help but clenched his small fists and cheered in a voice that only he could hear: "...Great. It feels like playing mandarin ducks! It’s so cool~!”

...

In her original position, Irena, who was still eating dessert, looked after An Luo and also noticed through the reflection of the mirror that An Luo, who was still cold and looking depressed, seemed to glance at Saya's depressed expression through reflection. He looked like he was laughing suddenly and couldn't help complaining: "This guy has such a bad character. He is worthy of being someone who can travel with me, but he should be worse than me in terms of badness..." .”

"——Miss Irena! I'm sorry!"

"Huh? What?"

Before she could finish speaking, Irena was suddenly interrupted by Shaye's shout, and was slightly startled.

The next time I turned around, I saw Shaye smashing her head on the table. After making a worrying sound of her head colliding, she suddenly raised her head and stood up across the table, grabbing Irena's hand holding the spoon. : "Since my brother doesn't agree with us being together, then I, we really have no choice but to elope at this time!"

"Huh? E-elope??"

"Yes! Even my brother can't stop our love! So... let's elope! Miss Irena!"

"——Wait, wait! What's my opinion? Why should I elope with you?!"

Irena tried her best to push away Saya who was approaching.

"I like Miss Irena!"

"So what's my opinion?"

"Miss Irena, do you like me?"

".....it's OK."

"That means I like you, right?! Miss Irena, I trust you very much and value you more than anyone else! So... let's elope!"

Shaye expressed her good intentions enthusiastically, but Irena didn't want to answer the question of whether she liked it or not.

Because she knew very well that if she said she liked her, she would immediately be dragged away by Shaye to elope without any room for explanation. Therefore, she could only let out a long sigh: "Ordinary... there are no two girls. Let’s elope? And why did it suddenly become an elopement? We’re not in that kind of relationship, right?”

"Brother and I! Are Miss Irena going to choose that overbearing, unreasonable, and aggressive brother?"

“…..”

"Why don't you answer? Does Miss Irena really want to choose that unreasonable, tyrannical and ruthless brother?"

"...."

Irena fell into silence and remained silent blindly. She left Shaye without saying anything and walked out of the store. After all, speaking at will in this country without careful consideration will lead to serious consequences, and it will definitely make oneself very long. Time has caught up with Saya.

Saya, who followed him and wanted to say something, was grabbed by the collar and picked up by An Luo who was guarding the door when he walked out of the store.

"——W-wow?!"

Saya was startled, panicked and danced in mid-air and subconsciously took out the wand, but An Luo snatched it away in the blink of an eye, so she could only rush to Irena in front of her for help: "Miss Irena! Hurry, help! help me!"

"Stop screaming, Irena will not save you! Didn't I just tell you not to pester Irena! What are you doing now?!"

An Luo, who inexplicably liked the feeling of beating a mandarin duck with a stick, deliberately brought the short-haired girl in front of him, who seemed to be very conscious of bullying, and scolded him with a stern face: "You actually dare to instigate my child to elope with you? How brave you are. Ah! You tell yourself! Do you want me to bury you? Or do you want to go into the water to feed the fish!?"

"——Easy, sorry, sorry, sorry! I, I just can't help it! Please, please spare my life! No matter what, at least, at least leave me alive!"

Saya, who had been glaring at An Luo fiercely not long ago, faced him who looked like he really knew how to bury people. He suddenly thought of the gangsters in his hometown and became frightened. He cried exaggeratedly and begged for mercy.

"...Are you giving in too quickly? Aren't you a witch? If you do this, wouldn't there be no sense of accomplishment at all?"

Saya's exaggerated reaction made An Luo depressed. He originally had many lines that he had planned while waiting, but now he could only hold back. After all...she burst into tears. It feels cumbersome to get up.

"An Luo, are you telling the truth?" Irena, who was standing nearby, covered her face for the first time today. She couldn't bear to look at An Luo's behavior. At the same time, she sighed and persuaded in a low voice: " How should I describe Miss Saya's character... Anyway, it's better not to bully her too much."

"Yes Yes......"
