I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

36. All women are children, no matter how old they are

1.

“Now, keep your head down until the blood stops. Don’t pick up the toilet paper.”

“……I understand.”

Eileen covered her nose with the tissue I handed her and bowed her head. She lowered her head so I couldn’t see her expression, but the fact that her earlobes were reddened made it clear that Eileen was shy.

Well, as people go through life, nosebleeds suddenly burst and that could happen.

There’s nothing to be ashamed of.

And as I expected, Sylphia with a sullen expression was sitting with her legs crossed crookedly, glaring at Eileen.

Shouldn’t we take comfort in the fact that fortunately the two of them avoided a hit-and-run as soon as they met?

“They say all women are children no matter how old they are. That’s right.”

“……Is that what you told me to listen to?”

“Oops, I didn’t mean to.”

“Baron Sylfia Andres. I hope you don’t forget that you also fall under that term.”

Cancel.

Sylpia, who was glaring at Eileen with a crooked posture, said something to her, and Eileen, who had been lowering her head until just now, lifted her head in her eyes and accepted the words.

“Eileen, keep your head down. Then the blood will run out.”

“……Ah.”

As soon as I finished my words, Aileen lowered her head again, but her eyes, through her flowing bangs, were still glaring at Sylpia.

Looking at these figures, who would think that these two are the Northern Duke and the Dragon respectively?

I don’t know why they’re both doing the same thing, so I don’t know what they’re arguing about, but I don’t even know who to give them rice cakes, so I don’t know why they keep bickering with each other.

‘These tough guys, really.’

He sighed and muttered. Of course, only inwardly so as not to be heard.

Normally it doesn’t matter much, but every time I do something like this, it feels like my lifespan is being cut off by a year.

I don’t know about Eileen because I don’t see her often, but Sylphia is usually so kind and she doesn’t know why she periodically changes like this even when people are kind.

As she continued to complain, I felt that there would be no end to her, so I raised her body.

“I’ll go and get you some tea. Eileen, don’t raise your head. Keep your head down. It’ll be a big deal if you raise your head and tilt it back and then fall back into the airways and harden.”

“Rudrick, I’m grateful for your concern. No matter how much I do——”

“Write.”

“……I understand.”

Even if I get Eileen’s confirmation, the reality is that I’m not very trustworthy.

Even if tea is served, all I have to do is go to the multipurpose room attached to the lab, boil water with magic, and brew the tea leaves that Master bought and have an awakening effect to help with research.

I now understand why there was a saying in the old days that a child was put out by the water. If I’m away, it’s obvious that the two of us will start bickering and fighting.

The expression that all men are children even when they get older, but in this world, the gender has changed, so it seems that women are used as the expression that they are children even when they get older.

That is the wisdom of our ancestors. It’s not like that’s why I said that.

As I rushed to prepare tea for three people, there was a rattling sound. And as I listened to it, I slowly struggled.

‘All I found out from Arwen was that I died before returning…….’

If you ask Arwen secretly, you can learn more about the situation, but…… Until now, Arwen had been the only one who openly revealed that he had returned, so there was a sense that it was a little premature.

It would be the best option if you could get insurance as an option to choose at the end, and find out from Sylfiana, who you usually hang out with often, and Eileen, who you meet occasionally like this…….

It was a very embarrassing situation.

‘It’s getting more and more mountainous.’

To the extent that I inadvertently thought so while putting tea leaves in the kettle.

It was a kind of merit that I knew about the fact that all five of them had returned.

There is no reason for me to hide the fact, but on the contrary, there is no reason for me to disclose the fact.

Let’s think about it.

All I know is fragmentary information that says that five people have returned, and that the reason for the return is because I died in the past before the return.

It’s just that I don’t worry too much, I’m not a saint who’s detached from life and death to the point where I’m calm even though I died for some reason. It’s just that he’s already been through death once, and because of the gap between his previous life and his current life, he’s a little more calm than others.

Excuse me for saying that, but why did I die before returning? It is impossible to ask.

It is said that it is best to dig up the information carefully and put all the pieces together, rather than mindlessly poking around and touching the beehive and regretting it later.

‘It’s easy to say.’

Just when I thought the tea leaves had been fully brewed, I shook my head while placing the teapot and teacup on the tray.

Can you tell me?

Be as careful as possible with Eileen, since we don’t have many opportunities to meet, I’ll have to slowly work my way through it…….

Since Sylphia usually sticks together in the lab anyway, she must have more opportunities than Eileen.

First of all, I thought it would be better to do that, and when I brought the tea cup, Eileen and Sylphia were in the middle of a cold war.

As if it was intended, they looked away from each other and only lingered in heavy silence.

Is this the only thing that has to happen if this body, which is the mood maker, is missing?

“Drink while warm.”

“……Thank you, Rudrick.”

“Thank you.”

The two start to move when the tray is put down on the table.

Still, I wonder if it’s okay to not fight and get along well if you’ve even regressed, but it’s not the kids, they’ll do it on their own. Because everyone will have an idea.

And my thoughts are meaningless.

“Oh.”

“…….”

Trying to take the teacup from each other, their hands only brushed together, and Sylphia and Eileen again met their eyes in the air.

“If you hit it with your hand, do you apologize? You almost missed the glass.”

“I stretched out my hand first, but wasn’t it you who reached out later and bumped into me? The subject has changed. It must be you who have to apologize, not me.”

Cancel this again.

Where are they not even elementary school students, and they are trying to fight with twin wicks in their eyes again just because they brushed each other’s hands?

“Stop both.”

I spoke in a deliberately low voice.

I couldn’t help it. If you keep staying here like this, you’ll keep fighting. It’s better to just isolate them from each other than to stop them every time.

“Eileen. How long does it take to sign a sponsorship contract or something?”

“……I don’t know because I’ve left it to the staff. Still, it might take two more hours to coordinate the details and finalize the contract, right?”

Two hours.

If it’s long, it’s long, if it’s short, it’s a short time.

But since we’ve already been bickering several times in less than thirty minutes, we’ve come to the conclusion that it’s better to just keep them apart.

“Then follow me.”

“……To where?”

“If you keep staying here, you’ll keep fighting with Sylphia. I’ll just show you around my room.”

And as soon as I finished my words, Eileen and Sylphia’s movements stood tall and stopped.

But there was a subtle change in the expression of the two.

Sylphea, whose complexion suddenly darkened as if she had lost her country, and Eileen, who had a strange smile between her expressionless face. Their expressions were in contrast.

“……That’s not bad. Then go right away.”

Eileen stood up as if she had been waiting for those words.

…… What. I made an excuse that I would let her see her room just to drop her off.

I wondered if this would be something I would like so much, but since it came out cooperatively, it’s comfortable and nice for me.

I don’t know why Sylpia looked at her with pitiful eyes, like a deer caught in a trap and waiting to be rescued, but she took Aileen to her lab.

It seemed like he heard a chuckle before the door closed, but he said as he walked down the aisle that he had achieved his goal of keeping the two apart anyway.

“But even if it’s my room, it’s nothing special. All rooms where people live are the same, well.”

“…….”

“It’s really nothing special. I’m a little sorry for my parents if I say this, but it’s definitely the imperial palace compared to the room I used in the manor, so there’s not much difference except that the facilities are a little better.”

“……It’s not meaningless.”

“Yes?”

“That’s right, Rudrick, since it’s your room… You made a mistake.”

Eileen muttered, blushing. Her skin was white and clean, so the pale blush on her face stood out.

I don’t know why she blushes. I don’t think it’s because I’m shy because I think it’s just a men’s room.

I reached my room, which was not far from the lab, and opened the door with a puzzled face.

Arwen went for a walk…… Or maybe she’s in the room or one of the two. If she’s aware, she’ll pretend to be a cat.

Anyway, if I’m going to separate myself from Sylphia, I’ll have to spend some time with her in my room chatting with her until the sponsorship contract or whatever is over.

With that in mind, I was about to open the door when I heard a cat cry.

Meow-.

She cried low as Arwen approached with a haughty gait, as if she was asking why she had already come.

Then, as soon as I saw Eileen standing behind me, Arwen hardened like a statue of her.

“…….”

Like someone who loses her words as soon as she sees Arwen, Eileen also stopped right there.

“Arwen… Nosferatu…?”

“……Eileen Nord?”

It was a rare sight of a person and a cat stuttering and blabbering each other’s names.

And.

Chang-!

Eileen, who drew her sword from her scabbard hanging from her waist with her metallic sound, aimed the point at Arwen, and with a flash of light, Arwen returned to her original human form. Fangs exposed.

“Rudrick, get out of the way. You dare to set foot in the imperial palace for being a dirty vampire…! No, I didn’t expect you to be deceived by pretending to be a cat.”

“Get out of the way. If you get caught up in it, Rudrick, you might get hurt. Let’s take care of this cheeky woman first, and then we’ll talk.”

Eileen with an angry expression like never before, and Arwen casting magic with both hands with a cold expressionless face.

And I became a sandwich between them again.

…… This looks like something I’ve been through before.

More than that, what happened between the two of them made things so bad?
