I’m Glad You’re Happy (II)

Wow… 

Anyway, since that incident, Didi has changed his name to Dominique and joined the knights in order to become a match for Aidan, a future Count.

In case you’re wondering, it was me who set up Dominique’s fake family register so he could join the knights. A crime? No, no, no, it was fine! Once he has attained a respectable position in the Knights Order, Dominique could stand proudly alongside Aiden, who would become a Count. Then they could marry openly. In addition, the current Count, himself has already given his approval for their future together.  

Whoa… That was fast…

“I can’t thank you enough for all your help.” Aiden smiled. 

“I never thought I could be so happy. I couldn’t have imagined it when I was in the Viscount’s family… I really, really couldn’t believe it… So, I can’t thank you enough, Urschel-sama.”

“That’s great. But that’s only because Aiden agreed to my proposal,” I replied to Aiden. 

“Aiden, you must know that it was by your own power that you’ve attained your happiness, no matter what form it takes. If you ever need anything else, let me help you, okay?”

“Yes… I also would like to be of help if Urschel-sama ever needs anything. Please let me return the favour.”

We smiled at each other. 

The fun was over before I knew it and it was already evening. The happy couple saw me off as I left the Count’s estate to return home. 

…Nevertheless, both of them got along really well…

They seemed to have fun… And they looked so happy… Hmm, that was so nice…

On the contrary, I…   

I was lost in thought, and before I knew it, I already reached the Minusle’s estate. As I got out of the carriage, I happened to see Theodore coming down from his carriage; he had just returned. 

As I recalled, he was at the Ministry of Magic for research today… It felt like it had been such a long time since the last time we saw each other like this… Theodore and I both had been so busy these days, and especially me, who was occupied with Aiden’s matter for the past month.

“Welcome back, Theodore.”

“You also have just returned?”

“Yes. I went to see my friend. Theodore was at the Ministry of Magic, right?”

“Yeah, I was writing a report on the practicality and applicability of magic circles and demonstrating them. Just a while more until I can complete the theory and a simplified magic circle, after that it should be possible to make the magic work semi-automatically without a human being. I also asked the ministry to help me with that.”

Theodore is… so amazing. I have no idea what he said he was doing at all. It feels like sooner or later, he is about to be someone distant… He is a genius after all. But… that somehow makes me sad…   

As I was immersed in those thoughts, my body moved as if in reflex. I hugged Theodore from behind as he tried to get in the door before me. 

“…!”

“Huh?!”

At the sound of Theodore’s gasp, I came to my senses.

Why, why did I do this to Theodore…! But now it had come to this, I didn’t want to let go of my hands even more. Since this was Theodore, if I released my hold here, he surely would only stare at me incredulously as he questioned me just what I was doing.

Ahh, I needed to say something… The reason why I did this!

Argh, just why did I do this?

…My face got hot.

“…I, right now I, I am a loneliboi[efn_note]The word sounded awkward even in the original text, so Theodore couldn’t really understand it, so I made it in English like this, hehe[/efn_note].”

“…Huh?”

…I panicked, I ended up saying something strange.

Yeah, that’s it! I’d just be shameless about it! And he’d better listen to all my grievances until now.

""

…Although it still was a bit embarrassing to say it out loud.

“You haven’t been together with me lately, have you, Theodore?”

“…!”

“Theodore, I’m very proud of you, who are now recognized by both the Knights Order and the Ministry of Magic, but because of your absence, I am spending my time by myself. So, I’ve completely become a loneliboi, you know, Theodore-kun.”

“…Urschel…You…”

“So, that’s what it is, Theodore-kun. I hope you’ll give me some attention in the near future. Otherwise, I’m at my wits’ end…” 

As I had said that much, Theodore turned his head around. I let go of my hug as Theodore turned around and looked at him; he was red up to his ears for some reason.

“Tomorrow…”

“!”

“I’ll definitely have the whole day off tomorrow…” Then, he held his reddened face with one hand as he abashedly asked me, “Urschel, would you also pay attention to me…?”   

Fufu, so cute… Ehehe, well, doesn’t this make both of us lonelibois!

“Of course! Theodore, we’ll have fun tomorrow!”

“Yeah…”

“I want to go to Natcheil! It would be so much fun to go with Theodore.”

“All right… Ah, yes. Urschel,” Theodore whispered to my ears as he gently hugged me who was smiling in joy. 

“…I definitely won’t let Urschel be lonely from now on. I want you to be ready.”

Now it was my turn to turn red up to my ears.

*The Forgaths Afterwards

Lord Felipe was jailed for life for selling illegal drugs and assault. As a result, Viscount Forgath’s household was disestablished. Lady Nermie, whose mind had been damaged by a long period of taking magic powders, had to be treated in a closed ward of a mental hospital. There was still no prospect of recovery.
