Ore no Isekai Shimai ga Jichou Shinai!

One day in the summer, about two months after I turned seven. When I was studying in my room, my mother rarely visited me.

And...

"... Mother, what did you just say?

To the words I was told without any foreshadow, I turned white in my head. I hope it's a mistake to hear, but your mother ruthlessly repeats the same words.

"We've decided who to meet" -.

"... wait, wait! I'm only seven, right?

I am twelve years old and will be treated as an adult and able to marry. In aristocratic societies, it is good to be forced to marry politically at the same time as you are twelve.

So I understood that even one day I would have such a day. But I'm only seven. Suddenly they say that, but I'm not ready for it.

Even if I looked at it that way, my mother wouldn't listen to me.

"There's no reason to panic after a long time, is there? I've been married since I was twelve, but I can get engaged now, so it's better for you to find someone."

"But, Mother!

Unexpectedly absurd my voice. When she saw me like that, her mother gave me a pitiful look.

"... Claire. I'm not saying I don't know how you feel. But this has already been decided. Accept."

"Mother..."

"Anyway, I'll tell Michelle after the schedule"

Mother left the room intact when she told her what to tell her. That way, I'm alone and left in my room.

Perhaps political marriage is more than having to be born as a noble daughter. At least I grew up being heard that way.

But after all, suddenly I can't accept being told like that... and I'm about to cry by accident. At that time, the door was inadvertently knocked.

"... who?

"It's Michelle, Miss Claire. Excuse me, sir."

Michelle comes into the room even though she says she hasn't given her permission yet.

Why did you think for a moment?

"I was told to see how things were going, what happened?

Understand everything in that language. Your mother noticed me and called Michelle.

If you say you're not happy about that, you're lying. Because I know you've noticed me as a mother. But... I don't want Michelle to see me crying.

"... nothing."

"It doesn't look that way. If you need anything, please tell me."

Michelle tries to touch me. If they do that, I'll definitely cry. So I shook that hand off.

"... Dear Claire?

"Leave me alone because it's nothing!

The pattern made my voice absurd, and I fled from the spot.

"Huh... Huh - Ugh"

Jump off the mansion and escape across the courtyard.

That's how I kept running as hard as I could. I fell because I was tired and took my legs off. I tried to get up in a hurry, but my body wouldn't listen to me.

I cried out by accident.

It didn't hurt anywhere. I'm a bird after all, and I can't even get out of the mansion on my own. Because I understand that.

How long would you have been crying?

"Why are you crying?

"- Who!?

Hearing the boy's voice sounding unexpectedly, I bounced up my face reflexively. That's how I jumped into my sight - a boy so cute that I could see him with a girl.

Am I, for a moment, your match? What a thought. If such a sweet-looking boy is your match - I also expect it.

But that's impossible. Mother said she would follow the schedule.

"... who are you? Why are you here?

I ask in suspicion. The interaction we had that way was a very strange thing.

He's a little boy smaller than me, but he knows a whole lot I don't, and he's a little Ijiwal, but he's so sweet. A really strange boy. I immediately became interested in the boy.

But...

"I say Lyon."

I got a name out of a boy. I was shocked like no other. The name is sporadically heard and known by her mother. My mother is not like me, brother.

He was asked never to get along because he was a savage, ill-personalized child. That's why I don't think, "They say I shouldn't get along with you," he says.

But the truth is, it's totally different from the impression they were asking, because you were nice. I wanted to get along with you - that's what I was going to keep doing.

But Michelle's voice sounded like she was looking for me from afar.

"Well, I'll be going."

My brother didn't like to be found, or he left to run away.

"- Miss Claire, I've looked for you. What's wrong with that handkerchief?

"... I fell just now, so I took care of it."

"Allowance... it's not just a matter of wrapping cloth around, is it?

"Yeah. When I left you alone, you said there were germs in there and how inflammation was. But he also said if you wash it away with clean water, you'll be fine."

"... inflamed with germs, is it?

"I knew you didn't even know Michelle, did you?

Michelle is like a parent to my upbringing and an educator. I thought it might be because I had never heard it before, but it turns out normal people don't know the story.

I'm more and more interested in my brother.

"Who the hell is it that gave the lady an allowance?

"... Hey Michelle? You're on my side, aren't you?

I didn't answer Michelle's question, and I lay down my questions here.

My brother said he wanted me to keep a secret about him. I know why. I needed Michelle to shut up about my brother.

Fulfilling, Michelle nodded to me, "Of course."

"Then promise me you won't tell anyone what you're going to say now."

"Okay. We will never speak out."

"Promise. My brother was the one who took care of my legs."

"... brother? That's... No way!

"Yes, the child your father made a maid have."

"Don't engage with that person, Miss Claire! If Mrs. Caroline finds out, it's a big deal."

By shaking my head to the side, I blocked Michelle's words.

"I know, Michelle. But, you know, I'm saying it on top of that. I'm not far away, I can make you marry unwanted as a tool of politics."

"Ma'am, could..."

"My mother told me about the meeting. Of course, you know there's no choice, right? But, you know, that's why I want to do what I can until then."

I know that if I marry you in some house, you'll be deprived of your freedom more than ever. So I beg Michelle to help me because it's my first and last favor.

"Has the lady... fallen in love with Master Lion?

"Love... what is Michelle saying? They're my brother. Half the time, you're the one with the blood connection, right?

"Oh, don't the lady know? It's fashionable to marry a sister and brother these days."

"Oh, you're lying, aren't you?

"No, it's true. So nothing wrong with that."

"Yes, what..."

Even my sister and brother can be paedophiles. The moment they asked me that, I felt my chest squeal.

By the way, that's not true, and it was Michelle's turn to let me experience love for once or so... it was after I sincerely fell in love with my brother that I found out about it.
