93 – Scene 093# Couple more than couple

*

“I see.”

Inside the carriage heading to school.

Bella, who heard everything, nodded her head in agreement.

“I knew very well what was going on.”

Bella said in a calm voice.

“If I had come a little later, I would have gone very far. Poor Countess.”

she wasn’t laughing

He was just staring at me with expressionless eyes.

His eyes were so cold that it was uncomfortable.

It was unfair for me to be criticized for staying still, but if Bella hadn’t appeared, I might have had a hard time stopping Helga.

So I had no choice but to listen to Bella’s nagging in silence.

“I hope the Count will wake up a bit. What are you going to do if a scandal breaks out over this? Have you forgotten that since the Seven Star Reconciliation, people have been viewing the two of us as having a delicate relationship?”

“A subtle relationship… ?”

“really. Do I have to explain this with my own mouth? More than a couple, less than a couple! That is between us.”

Were you more than a friend or less than a lover?

I tried to point it out, but Bella continued nagging.

“What master is willing to lay down his eyes for just one subordinate? There is a degree of recklessness. If you live with a spirit of sacrifice that doesn’t even waste your own life, you won’t live long. Mr. Poor.”

It was a subtle word, whether it was praise, criticism, or concern.

Blanche, the escort driver sitting next to Bella, muttered in a low voice.

“If you’re like a count, you’re acting like a count… .”

“Yes? The Count has an image that speaks harshly to his subordinates and treats them harshly.”

“no. Load more than expected… . What?! Oh, nothing.”

“Yes? Blanche?”

“Kuhm… . Sorry. Miss Bella is right. Please forget my mistake.”

I interrupted the conversation between the two.

“I admit I was reckless.”

It was a necessary process, but it was true that it was reckless.

If this is the case, my body may not remain.

Seeing my recognition, Bella pouted.

“huh… . Because there really are no fools. Let me see you for a second.”

Bella suddenly showed her face.

Before I had time to dodge, her hand touched my bandaged left eye.

“Be right… . Does it hurt a lot?”

“… … never mind. A wound that will heal in a few days.”

“It’s okay to say that… . It’s a big injury no matter who sees it? why always… . A man like you is hurt like this… .”

There was a vagueness in Bella’s eyes as she blurted out her words.

Bella’s hand, which had been caressing my left eye, fell and landed on her chest.

“By the way… You know what… ? I don’t know the Count, but there are people who have always been worried about you.”

Bella looked up at me.

It was hard to see because of the angle, but I couldn’t completely hide my flushed cheeks.

It was like when I saved Bella from being kidnapped in the past.

So it was clear who she was talking about.

“Can you please stop doing such reckless things in the future, even for that person?”

“… Think about it.”

“lie.”

The moment I heard that, I couldn’t help but feel tingly. Because my lies have been exposed.

Naturally, I expected Bella’s angry face.

But unexpectedly, she was smiling.

“You are a liar too… .”

From now on, the road I will go on will be a more thorny road than this one.

As if she knew all about my situation, which had no choice but to lie to her.

Bella smiled faintly.

For a moment, I thought I had a connection with her.

A very brief silence ensued.

“Whoa… .”

And, of course, it was Bella who broke the silence.

“Anyway, I didn’t expect the count to value his subordinates so much.”

“It’s mine, so I treat it seriously.”

“Huh… . If it belongs to the count, then yes?”

“yes.”

“For something like that… … Aren’t you being a bit careless?”

Bella said, glancing at Helga, who was sitting next to me.

Helga sat quietly wearing a mask.

It was hard to figure out from the outside, but in fact, she was being punished for disobeying my order.

If you look closely, you can see that she is wearing thick steel handcuffs with her hands behind her back, and her mouth covered by a mask is gagged.

“… A dog that tries to bite its master needs training.”

I wondered if it was too much for a patient who had undergone surgery only yesterday, but considering Helga’s physical abilities, it was a weak punishment.

However, I wondered if this punishment was worthy of her.

because… … .

“Ouch… . ugh… .”

It seemed that Helga, whose hands were tied, wanted to put the leash on her thigh and hand it to me.

It’s a story about filling the leash.

Seeing that even her eyes sparkle, it seems that she really wants it.

Unfortunately, I had no intention of matching her hobbies. Because punishment is punishment.

Besides, it’s horrifying to imagine what the newspapers would say the next day if I went to school with Helga on a leash.

I looked outside the carriage for a moment at the scenery passing by.

I will be arriving at school soon.

I put in my mouth the fact that I had been questioning all along.

“So what did you come to my mansion from early morning?”

“Oh, just… … I am worried about something.”

“?”

Bella cleared her throat suspiciously.

“Kuhm… . There is such a thing. I only came to see what was going on with the Count. Rather, I came to wake you up in the morning, so shouldn’t you be grateful?”

“I never asked you to come.”

“huh. I didn’t even expect it.”

Bella stuck out her tongue.

It looked like a child’s complaint, and it was very cute.

“But it doesn’t hurt? You can rest today.”

“I can’t.”

“What kind of work do you do with such a sick face? Isn’t it okay to play with the chairman? What the hell are you going to school for today?”

“A school tour is scheduled.”

That’s what I said, but in fact, it was enough even if the chairman didn’t do it himself.

Even so, the reason I wanted to do this myself was to see with my own eyes the talents who would face future players.

“School patrol… . Even the president of the school wouldn’t do that well.”

“I am not the principal. I am the chairman.”

“Huh… . You mean that?”

Bella thought for a moment and was silent.

Then, as if she had made up her mind, she spoke.

“Ahh… . If so, there is nothing you can do. I have no choice but to accompany you today.”

“… what?”

I wanted to say something out of the blue, but Bella gave a plausible answer.

“If you have to go around the school, wouldn’t it be more convenient to have a professor with you? Besides, it looks like the count’s escort knight should be punished… .”

“Wow??”

To that, Helga responded.

Either way, Bella continued.

“Although I am a temporary lecturer, I am also a professor. So, just for today, I will make a special patrol with the Count.”

“Not required.”

“I need it.”

Bella interrupted me.

“As far as I know, you have class today.”

“oh… ? Do you remember me too? Why don’t you look around and observe my class?”

“Are you asking me to observe your class?”

“Yes. Any count is welcome.”

After hearing it, it wasn’t a bad suggestion.

Even if I tried to observe the class, it was clear that there would be many professors who would not be satisfied with it.

If Bella was cooperative, I would be able to watch the students in class comfortably.

The trouble didn’t take long.

“i get it. Let me leave it up to you.”

“Whoops… . Good idea.”

Soon the carriage stopped.

It must have arrived at school.

The moment I was about to get off, Bella said.

“Wait.”

“… ?”

Bella grabbed the leash from Helga’s thigh and fastened it around her neck.

“town??”

“Not nice. Gulp Gulp… .”

“Ugh!?”

Bella stroked Helga’s head as if petting a puppy, then passed the end of the leash to Blanche.

“miss… ? What is this?”

“Blanche. I had a lot of trouble. It’s okay if you don’t escort me today.”

“Yes?? what is that… .”

“Today, I will be ‘alone’ with the count, so Blanche, please take a walk around the city with that doggie.”

“Ugh?!”

“Yes?! Are you talking about a walk?!”

Helga and Blanche both exclaimed in surprise.

But Bella saw them off, ignoring their cries.

“Then have a good time.”

“Hey, please wait! miss!”

“Ooh! Whoops! uuu!!”

Quickly closing the carriage door, Bella called out to the coachman.

“Take them both on a tour of the city, please.”

“All right. miss.”

So the wagon hurriedly departed.

I was dumbfounded for a moment at what happened so quickly.

Bella spun around and looked at me.

“Ego… . It seems there are no more people to hinder us.”

Bella crossed her arms.

Her soft breasts touched his elbows.

“Then shall we go together? My very own Count.”
