"Huh... Steering Committee members do a lot of things ~"

"You'll have no choice but to do all this. But we had to make it easier, so we have to thank you for everything."

Amelia's game was over, and we were on the Steering Committee.

What Clarice and I do is mainly clean up.

Fighting fields are square cobblestones, but of course magic can break them a lot. The faculty gathered it in one place by magic, so our management committee undertook the task of keeping it together in a room on the first basement floor.

In addition, cleaning the athlete's spare room is also carried out. Of course I don't get that much garbage, but I also do this work every game because I want to provide a good environment for athletes.

This is surprisingly difficult, sometimes it's my first time and Clarice and I have been used to it for a while...

"Okay... that's good"

"Oh. And they're already starting their next game. Next thing you know, after you get in the booth and clean up, you're gonna watch the game."

"... Phew. I mean, aren't we super busy?

"What do you mean?

"No, 'cause you work as a seller in the morning, right? So this is how the Steering Committee works next...... well we are the main cleaners. So, after that, Amelia's backup, right? Think it's quite a hard schedule..."

"Sure, if you ask me... Could it be hard? Then I'll do a little more work..."

"No, that's not what I meant... Huh! I just thought..."

He was currently on his way up from the first basement floor to the top floor and straight to the athlete's pantry.

In the meantime, Clarice tells me such a story, so I respond... but I wonder if I might be putting a lot of strain on it.

Think of it, the job of the Steering Committee still is. The seller and the Amelia Support Group are like I was forced to invite them.

I thought I was really sorry that I was burdened by all this... apparently that's not what Clarice was trying to say.

"Well..."

"Maybe you have something to say?

"Well... why did I run for Steering Committee... you didn't tell me, did you?

"That... you did"

I hear why Clarice doesn't participate as an athlete.

She wanted to be a hunter than a magic swordsman...... but I hadn't even heard why she ran for Steering Committee. I didn't ask in depth then, but apparently she would talk to me. Why not?

"Well... I've already told Ray that I've always had this personality. And the Cleveland family is quite a nobleman."

"... I see"

"So, well... I can't really make a friend. Even so, I'm sure my personality problems are huge... well, even when I get into this college, I kind of float in class. So I wanted to run for the Steering Committee and get involved with a little more people."

……

"So the... Ray and everyone else, because thanks to you I was able to meet... I can't tell you how embarrassed I am about that all the time... you really say thank you so much to Ray... the... oh, thank you"

With her face just slightly down, she said so. The cheeks had a pearlescent color, not even bright red, but I could see that I was shy. But... is that what happened?

Clarice also acted from herself in the hope of changing.

I don't know until her detailed past, but there must have been various grids. Even so, he looks good and acts like he doesn't show any weakness. I'm sure the usual twinkling place is probably her own virginity.

By doing so, I try to maintain a constant sense of distance from people. But Clarice wants to change, he wants some trigger, he runs for Steering Committee and he's going to...

Oh, my God... Oh, my God, is that healthy...

When I feel something warm with Gene in my chest, I accidentally wipe my own eyes.

"Ugh, Clarice... were you one of the angels again..."

"Hey!? Why are you crying......!?

"Ugh... gusu... sorry. Is it the year? I'm so impressed with the way that your heart is, and the courage Clarice has taken..."

"No, no, years are like that... not the same age. No! But you know what, I really appreciate Ray... Oh! That's all I wanted to say! Oh, but don't get me wrong. Hey! No, the... I'm not mistaken... whoa! Ah too, usually embarrassing..."

Clarice put his hands on his cheeks, whose cheeks were still stained bright red.

So is Elisa, but Clarice is also trying to do something to overcome her own grid again... and she's moving on.

Perhaps everyone does.

I'm sure we're all on the way. With all sorts of troubles, you keep moving forward. But we have friends now. A friend with no changeover. That's why I'm so glad I came to this college.

"Here. This is handkerchief and tissue"

"Sorry."

I took those two and wiped my pitiful face. I feel very loose in my tear glands these days, but with so much health in front of me, I don't have the heart to be impressed, so I won't have a choice.

"Speaking of which, I've been thinking."

"Ah."

"... is Amelia okay?

"Which one do you mean?

"Oh... so Ray realizes that too"

Clarice looked just a little serious, and that's what I've been asking.

"When it comes to the physical side, the magical side, she's plentiful. It wasn't Dade who survived the Aynsworth-style boot camp."

"... that was tragic. That Amelia freaked out over there and ran away... I was really scared watching from the side..."

"But she said she'd be fine with it... that's what I'd say, but isn't that what Clarice's trying to say?

"Yeah. Amelia, you know... sometimes you can't do it, when you're like someone else, right?

"Right."

Apparently Clarice wasn't the only one who felt something about Amelia. That's how she keeps talking, dripping the twin tails just a little bit.

"Me, too. I've known Amelia since I was a little girl. Of course, all three nobles know each other well. Senior Rebecca, Ariane, and Amelia. The three of them were well compared. Even the three nobles are wonderful. Because nobles are so loud about that. So, Amelia is a bit... told by other nobles... that she is the eldest daughter of the Rose family headed by three great nobles, but inferior to Senior Rebecca or Ariane. Of course, I think Amelia is amazing compared to other nobles. But actually, those two are even more amazing."

"I see... did that happen..."

"Yep. So, I was watching Amelia from afar at a party or something. I didn't have the courage to talk to you, but, uh... it's beautiful, and I need your attention because it's cute. But, you know, Amelia seems to be laughing, not laughing. Ever since I was little... I don't think that's changed"

"But I... Amelia seems to be getting herself back just a little bit now..."

Amelia had occasions when she was really laughing from the heart. I knew that as soon as I saw that dazzling smile.

But I can't stop thinking about it right away.

As if she knew she shouldn't be like this, Amelia would soon try to build a wall.

"Yeah. That's right, I think too. Especially when I'm training with Ray. Amelia seems a little bit like herself, or she laughs from the bottom of her heart. Of course, that's what happens when you're with us. But I knew... when I was with Ray, I felt like Amelia was looking for something, like she was looking for something."

"... I see. Did it look that way to Clarice?"

"Yeah... it's me, I know the pressure of nobility. To prove this pedigree, and from all around me, there are many things to say. Fortunately, I was someone whose family didn't value that, and I don't really care about the voices around me with this personality... because Amelia has known for a long time that I've lived in a heavy pressure" pressure "I can't even imagine..."

"You're worried, aren't you?

"Yeah......"

I'm sure it's not just me or Clarice.

Both Evi and Elisa were staring at our training with harrassment. I was worried about Amelia.

Besides, when I formed the Amelia Support Group, everyone in the Environmental Research Department created various costumes with Amelia in mind.

Maybe what Amelia's going to do is really harsh and hard. But we're the ones who want to help her like that. I wish I could be such a backup to her...... I've come this far......

Amelia can really help me?

I'm still lost. I was wondering if you were really happy with this.

As in the past, I was wondering if I had made another mistake. Sometimes, I think about that.

But... I still decided to move on. As my former master did.

"Clarice. She's the only one who understands that in Amelia's mind. I'm sure she could hit a big wall in this tournament. But we'll take care of it. She's the only one who fights in that big audience, and we'll support her."

"Ugh...... yeah! Right! Ray, I knew it, no!

"Really..."

"Yeah! There's something a little weird about it, but it's nice to everyone! So let's back it up together! I feel good too. Good luck!

"Oh. Right."

When the two of us smile at each other, we keep working.

Kind...?

I must be laying her on myself. That's because he seemed to be staring at his lonely self in the past. That's why I'm here because I want to help Amelia.

If one day I could give Amelia what I wanted in the past... that's how I've acted.

If that's kindness, does that mean I'm getting the hearts of the crowd back, too?

Can I also be someone's support, like my master and everyone else then?

Can I also... lean on someone, not alone?

With that in mind, I'm going with Clarice.
