Ore no Isekai Shimai ga Jichou Shinai!

The tea party was ideal to do in the courtyard, but not to mention how warm the region is, it's a little chilly to have a tea party outside in February.

So the tea party decided to be held at the salon.

For that reason, around 3pm - I was on my way to the salon with Sophia out.

"Brother Lion, what are you doing in the salon?

It's a tea party.

"See you for tea...... maybe some others?

She was walking hand in hand with me. Sophia stops walking unexpectedly. I stopped and peered into Sophia's face as well.

"Is Sophia afraid to meet someone else?

"... yeah"

"Why?"

"Because... both your father and mother thought Sophia was a monster.... Everyone else must think so."

"I don't think so. Everyone in the kitchen helped Sophia with the treats for today's tea party?

"I'm sure, Lion, if your brother was here, that's how I said it."

Sophia shook her golden hair just because she didn't believe it.

"Ugh... but, you know, they didn't all look scared of Sophia, did they? Besides, you know I'm not afraid of Sophia, right?

"Lion, your brother is special."

"But I don't..."

Even I was scared when Sophia suddenly killed her father.

But when I found out that Sophia knew the sorrow and pain I had suffered and that she was angry with me instead, I wasn't scared anymore.

Finally, I think I was afraid that Sophia didn't know what she was thinking. And I guess that was the same with Sophia's parents.

That said, it would be difficult for Sofia to figure that out right now. So now, proceed with the plan as originally planned.

"I knew Sophia was anxious. But don't worry about it. 'Cause I only called one person I could trust."

"... alone? Could it be, Claire, your sister?

Oh, for Sophia, Claire. You're a trustworthy opponent. This is good news. Next time we have a tea party, Claire. Let's call it a day.

That said, this time Claire. I'm not calling you because you're busy with withdrawal work.

"I say Aristia... remember when I snuck into Sophia's room, there was a girl with me?

"Ah...... yeah. Is that sister with you?

"Yes, yes. That sister would be fine, wouldn't she?

"Yep..."

I don't feel bad about it. I don't hate it, but I guess a little anxiety is a subtle line. Then let's fold it up here at once.

"Actually, Alice knows all kinds of confectionery recipes. So there are many different kinds of treats to serve at this tea party."

"What are all kinds of treats... as delicious as pudding?

"It's a better treat than that."

"A treat better than pudding......"

"Oh. And three kinds."

"Three types…"

"One is a shortcake with strawberries on a fluffy sponge, coated in neat, sweet raw cream. And cold, sweet vanilla ice cream that dissolves in your mouth when you eat it. And a little bit more than custard pudding -"

"Lion, brother!

"Yeah? What's wrong with you?

"I want to go to the tea party soon!

Kind of.

... No, seriously, isn't that a little too much? I thought it was a pretty serious trauma, but with this, wouldn't it be a dream to reintegrate into society at once?

"Hey Sophia. If Sophia's okay, you can call some others."

"- I don't like that!

"Hmm...... would Alice be good?

"Because I felt so sweet when I saw your sister's heart. So that sister would be fine..."

Was it a combination of the effect of the treat and Alice's trust? If that's why you're saying it, you can't call it anything else.

"Okay. Then Alice is the only one I call. Let's have a tea party for three."

That's how it started. A tea party for just three.

"Whoa, whoa, what's this sweet treat, you can untie it in your mouth!?

"Heh, that's called vanilla ice cream. And try this cake."

"Hmm, sweet, so delicious! What is this? This is amazing, Sister Alice!

Sophia was obsessed with sweets. At first I was wary of Alice, or her expression was a little stiff, but totally in the form of a cage of sweets.

Still, I know the trauma hasn't been eliminated, but I can't seem to manage to get out of the form of dependence on me alone.

- What a thought, I was drinking tea.

By the way, in my last life I didn't realize because I didn't have a hobby to brew my own tea, but the tea in this world didn't seem to taste very good.

The world has changed since Alice drank the tea she brews.... No, I haven't had Alice's tea since she was reborn into this world.

- Koho.

Anyway. There are several points to brewing tea: temperature, convection, water, etc.

First, use boiling water to ensure that the temperature does not drop along the way whenever possible. The water then uses soft water, which contains good air, and steams the tea in a round container that is prone to convection.

This is the point of making delicious tea around here... first of all, there is no such thing as a highly insulated dish in this world. And naturally, there's no pot that cares about convection.

And finally, I haven't checked to see if it's soft water, but the well water I've drawn doesn't contain much air.

So even if the tea leaves were good, it was impossible to bring out the original flavor of tea.

- Unless you have Alice's cheat.

Maintain the temperature with the power of the Spirit and allow the water to contain air to convection properly. That's how Alice brewed the tea was at the level where the made-up of the Spiel family begged to be apprenticed.

Of course, I like it a lot too.

I mean, if the brewing method changes the flavor so much, if I produce a tea set or something, I guess I can sell it. But it also sounds like fun to make a café on Granchez territory.

"So, Alice, is your sister, Lion, your brother's lover?

"I still have plans, though."

... Hey, what are you talking about while people are enjoying their tea.

"Good... Sophia was going to marry your brother Lion, but it didn't happen."

I felt like Piscilli and the air were frozen.

What a bomb to drop, this kid. No, it did turn out that way. I don't know what to say about that, it should have been a more political story.

Or because Alice tells weird stories. What are you gonna give me back in this situation?

Without difficulty, cheer up - or something? No, it's not hard or anything. So you think you can beat me? - What do you do with provocation?

So, for example... we'll find someone better. - Like what? That's totally out. At least from Sophia's point of view, it would only sound like Yami.

Clarified, I think this situation is already packed. I can only imagine a future in which any answer is likely to step through landmines.

What a thought, Alice said away with a full grin.

"I'll help you, Sophia?" -.

... hey, what does that mean?

Is Alice gonna pull herself over for Sophia? Or are you just saying it lightly? If that's the case, you're gonna hurt Sophia.

Oh, my God, the conversation between the two of us is going on while I'm confused.

"Alice, is your sister good?

"I told you. I still have plans, too. Sounds like Lion still has some resistance to getting his hands on his real sister, doesn't he? So if I let my sister-in-law get her hands on me, I could cut ethics."

I'm thinking something horrible. Ugh!?

I mean, don't call me Sarah's real sister. We don't know anything about reincarnation.

"I don't know... are you sure?

"Of course you do, let's both attack Lion!

No, I don't know exactly what that means, but I only know better that it doesn't. Anyway, this place tried to escape. At that time, the door was inadvertently knocked.

"Come on in!

Speak up instantly.

Now that Sophia's here, if it's true, I should have gone outside and asked her about something.

But I was really in a hurry and didn't mind. On the contrary, someone walking into the room made me think I could do something about this situation.

As a result, Sophia let the maid who came in draw her expression. And when he comes running up in his seat, he hides on my back.

"... you know? May I speak to you?

"Oh, bad. What can I do for you?

"Yes, Sophia, visit the lady, Lady Patrick is here"

He's hiding on my back. Sophia shook herself up with Vikri.

"Sophia?"

Ask with a low voice just for your neck.

"... I don't want to see you, ask you to leave"

"Are you a nasty opponent?

"... you don't listen to me about Sophia, and I hate you because all you think about is yourself"

I see. That doesn't sound like a very good personality. Besides, I'm the type of person you'd never want Sofia to meet right now.

"Sophia doesn't seem to want to see you, so will you say no for some reason?

I told the maid to take Sophia's place.

"It's... Um..."

"Is it hard for you to say no?

"... Yes. Patrick's home is the Viscount Roadwell family. It is lower than the Spiel family, which is originally the Count's house, because it is a division of the Grand Marquis..."

You're a member of the Grand Marquis family. Claire, you don't really want to get involved with each other before you break up your engagement.

"Do you know what he's up to?

"Uh... the"

The maid glances at Sophia. Well, you don't have to think about it, Sophia. So I ask Sophia, who's behind this, for permission to listen.

I got Sophia's permission.

"If that's what you mean. Actually..."

and the maid taught me the fact that Patrick was proposing to Sofia.

He seems to have been a grown up since Sophia had a fiancée, but he heard somewhere that his engagement had been broken.

By the way, they say he's four years older than me and fourteen. Sophia is seven, so she doubles scores. I am totally lolicon because I am proposing to Sofia herself instead of being politically married.

Well, it may be appreciated that Sophia likes herself, not because of her status, but if you don't like Sophia either way, she's out.

"Just to confirm, Sophia really doesn't want to see you, does she?

"............... can I kill you?

"You've decided no!?

What a horrible statement to make with your pretty face. This girl.

And I'm too afraid it doesn't sound like a joke at all. Is that it? Killing your father is full of guilt, but if it's someone else, say no problem or something like that?

And, dare you, you're never going to see me.

"Sorry, tell me to change the day. If that's difficult, tell Eric what you're talking about."

"Yes, I did."

The maid is a courtesy. Left the room,

"Sophia?"

I'll try to speak up, but Sophia's expression remains stiff. I was feeling as bright as I had been before because of it, but I was back in yesterday's condition again.

Ugh. Patrick or whatever, the timing's too bad.

"You don't have to worry because you've already left, do you?

"... but I'm sure they'll come back"

That's... maybe it is. It wasn't until the other day that I disengaged Sophia. That's enough to fly in, and I'm guessing you're pretty obsessed.

Besides... I'm talking about the back shield of the Marquis Gramp. Mr. Carlos just died, and Mr. Eric is still young. I might not be able to say no if I get out of my mind.

Leaving it alone would make things worse. I was lost thinking Sophia's dependence might accelerate, but when this happens, I can't replace my belly on my back.

"Sophia, listen to me for a second. I'm going back to Granchez tomorrow."

"Uh... Lion, brother, are you leaving? He'll be back soon, won't he?

"No, I don't think I can come this way for the time being because I have a lot to do"

The minute I say that, Sophia's about to cry. I saw it. I just kept going, "So -".

"Won't you be my sister?

"... What do you mean? Lion, your brother will inherit the Granchez family, so you can't be adopted by the Spiels, can you?

"Right. So I was wondering if Sophia would be adopted by the Granchez family. It's up to Sophia to give Eric permission to do whatever she wants."

"... If I adopt you, Lion, can you stay with your brother forever?

"Yes, I am."

"Then I'll be your sister! Lion, I want to be your brother's sister and follow you with me!

"... ok. Then Sophia is officially my sister-in-law now. If anything threatens Sophia, I'll protect you. I will never grieve for Sophia."

When I return to Granchez territory, I will help a child who was sold as a slave, and also a child who may be sold from now on.

That's how we create an environment where everyone in the Granchez realm can be happy.

I would never weigh myself. Let Granchez territory be enriched enough for the Marquis Grande to protect Sofia even against him.

I'm sure there must be some happiness ahead of me.
