[Jarvis’s Objective]
The mysterious beautiful girl that Patrick and the others had seen.
—I had an idea of who she was.
She was probably… Jarvis.
Before and after the tournament, she had been oddly fired up, or should I say filled with a strong resolve, but it never crossed my mind that she’d come out about her gender.
…then again, it wasn’t yet certain that it was Jarvis.
The girl might just have similar characteristics to her.
However, if Jarvis were to announce to everyone that she was actually a girl, how would her parents—the Lekrust House—react?
If she truly were, chances were high that she kept it secret from her parents. That said, Jarvis wasn’t a short-sighted person.
In other words—if she truly was going to come out—she must have been secretly planning it for a long time.
Which meant… there were going to be big problems ahead.
It was going to completely crush the Lekrusts’ plan to have her inherit the house.
But that was the least of the problem.
In the worst case, her house might be stripped of its peerage.
“B-Barrett…”
Tayte, standing next to me, gently pinched the sleeve of my coat.
She seemed to have thought the same.
She was also a noble, so it was only natural that she’d worry about the same thing.
However, this was really bad timing, as there were still matters of the Halmans. If she truly was going to come out, it would be better to find a more peaceful time—
“?!”
As I was thinking, a hypothesis was born in my mind.
Was Jarvis… planning to stir things up?
Did the commotion involving Madeline give her the idea?
…No, no, even if that was true, why would she need to?
After all, in the worst case, the Lekrusts might—
“! Is that her goal…?”
Jarvis might be planning to strip the Lekrust House of its peerage. Even if it was for the sake of the house, for Jarvis it was like her entire life, her entire existence, had been robbed from her. In the first place, she couldn’t have continued to keep her secret without our assistance. In fact, in the original storyline, Barrett took advantage of that weakness and blackmailed Jarvis to—
“Barrett…?”
“I-it’s nothing. For now, let’s head to the venue.”
“Yes.”
I could see unease on Tayte’s face.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out Jarvis’s objective.
I had to meet Jarvis.
Tayte seemed to have the same idea, and we naturally picked up our pace.
When we eventually arrived at the venue for the afterparty—it was very lively.
To celebrate the success of the festival, it was filled with many students, teachers, and other people related to the academy.
“It looks like Jarvis hasn’t come yet.”
“Y-yeah.”
Of course, we immediately looked for Jarvis.
Then, we discovered that a part of the venue was strangely noisy.
“Tayte…”
“Yes. Let’s go.”
I took Tayte’s hand and together, we headed there.
There, we found—
