Looking out the window, I found that the sun had already set.
I’d feel bad about staying too long in Beatrix’s room, so I stood up. It can feel more power in my legs than before.
“It looks like you’re still struggling to stand up, but are you alright? Aren’t you feeling ill?”
“…I’m fine. This is, umm.”
The words were stuck in my throat. My cheeks immediately started to burn.
I-, I can’t say it…
Because Achille did this and that to me, I ended up unable to walk properly.
“Look now, it looks like you even have a fever.”
“T-, That’s not it. This is, I, just don’t have any strength in my legs… Umm, last night.”
“Eh-? Ehh-, could it be… Ah-, AHHH!”
It seems that Beatrix finally understood.
Her face also turned red in a flash. My face burned even hotter…
S-, So embarassing.
Because it was so embarassing, I couldn’t raise my head, and just flopped onto the couch. It’s a bit of a breach of manners, but it’s just us two here so there shouldn’t be a problem.
“…W-, Well, you’re newlyweds after all.”
Beatrix gave an odd follow-up.
“Uuu…”
“Achille is different than how he seems, huh!”
Please, just stop speaking…
“Uuuuu…”
After crouching for a few minutes, I somehow managed to get my blushing under control.
Alright. Time to withdraw.
“Beatrix, umm, that’s how it is, as far as its possible, I’d be happy if you cooperated with us. I know that it isn’t my place to say this after all that’s happened though.”
“Y-, Yeah. As long as it’s something I can do, I’ll cooperate with you, Miss Camille.”
“Thanks.”
Because a bit of the embarassment was left over from before, it’s still a little awkward.
“This is my personal opinion, but if you’re going to directly face the Heroine, then I think that in the end, pulling out the secret character would be effective.”
“Secret character?”
“You don’t know about him?”
I tried thinking back to the past. Speaking of which, the might have been something like that, but… I ended up here without finding out who it was. And I’d forgotten they existed all this time.
Even the walkthrough sites at the time still hadn’t uploaded any information on the secret character after all…
“Sorry, I ended up here while I was still playing the game, so… I only know about the four romance and friendship routes. Did you clear the route for the secret character, Beatrix?”
“Yeah, after you clear the four romance and friendship routes, as well as all the bad ends for the protagonist, he appears.”
Was that how it was? I ended up coming here while I was in the middle of clearing the bad ends after all.
The bad ends took an emotional toll after all, so they were really tough for weaklings like me, after all. So naturally my game clearing speed fell.
I mean, the Heroine just kept dying, and dying, and dying after all.
“And so, about that secret character… is he strong?”
“He has mana that compares to the Heroine.”
Was there such an amazing person around…? What a blindspot. As expected of Beatrix.
“By the way, what kind of person were they?”
“What kind of person, huh…? He’s just the school headmaster though.”
“Beatrix gave an odd follow-up.”
The word ‘odd’ here is actually ‘bimyou’, and means um, like… Well, basically they’re saying that it’s ‘neither here nor there’ or ‘hard to make a judgement on’. When something is bimyou, it’s like, it’s not too bad, but not too good either. Or maybe, it’s not quite appropriate, but not exactly inappropriate either. Like, in general, things that are ‘bimyou’ are just things that are hard to give a straight judgement on. Like, if you eat something and it tastes ‘bimyou’, it’s sorta like ‘ehhhhh, not BAD, but like… not good either, sorta’.
