“Unfair, unfair. Everybody’s unfair”

“Really, you’ve only been saying that for a while. Can’t you say anything else?”

Watching the scene of Cain kicking up a fuss while prostrated on the desk, the witch breathed a sigh and placed an exceptional medicinal tea before his eyes.

“Thank you… Uegh, amazing as ever”

While holding water to Cain who grimaced, the witch spoke.

“Be quiet. Even if you say that, isn’t it something that couldn’t be helped? You not appearing in the second volume”

“Aah?”

The witch sat in front of him. She tried to calm him down, but it seemed to have the opposite effect.

Cain raised his face and bitterly spoke.

“How nice granny has. One way or another you appeared on an illustration…”

“Listen, you… Why are you being envious of me”

“Because I… expected to appear a little before the end, and yet it will ultimately be kept for the next time, see?”

“There’s the page limit. Your appearance has a fair number of characters. Even the author seemed to try putting you in at first”

“Who cares about effort. Only the result matters… Shit. Didn’t most of the main cast debut in the illustrations. I’m envious…”

Haa , as Cain groaned, a bright voice came from next to him.

“Well, isn’t it fine. You’ll surely appear the next time. Cheer up”

The one who informed him in a radiant voice was Lidi sitting next to him.

She’s holding the second volume that has only just went for sale like it’s precious.

Cain turned his gaze to her. It’s not just her imagination that his eyes glazed.

“Another rash promise… Doesn’t Princess have it good. You got what you wanted. I know, okay? You asked Tsutamori-sama for illustrations of the Crown Prince in the military uniform and got three of them”

“! How!”

“… You can decrease the amount of my scenes, so I want more illustrations of the military uniform , I know you made a fuss like that, okay? I heard that you said you want to see the combat military uniform no matter what”

Uugh , Lidi was taken aback as it perhaps hit a nerve.

Still, she said as if to make excuses.

“It, it couldn’t be helped! Freed doesn’t wear it easily. There’s no way I could miss the opportunity!”

“Yes yes, ain’t you glad. Really, I beg you, don’t drool while looking at the illustrations. It’s too lame”

“Shut up! I’m not drooling!”

Seeing the two people having a noisy conversation, the witch narrowed her eyes.

She’s already come to find their usual exchanges healing. She herself finds it strange that she accepts that change as comfortable. She sipped the tea she poured for herself.

“I saw how ecstatically you were looking at the cover! I will report it to the Crown Prince!”

“Ha? Haa? What’s with report! I wasn’t being unfaithful. I was looking at Freed, so why has it come to reporting it!

At Cain’s words, Lidi stood up like she couldn’t let it pass.

Cain meaningfully smiled and pointed out.

“Because, won’t the Crown Prince be jealous of him on paper? Won’t he say things like “I want Lidi to look at the real thing?””

“Ugh… That’s”

Perhaps something came to Lidi’s mind as her voice cut off.

Maybe because she thought she couldn’t talk back, she sat back on the chair in silence.

Then she said. Her face was awfully serious.

“… I, I beg you, don’t tell Freed”

“What should I do, I wonder”

“Cain… Aren’t you extremely persistent today?”

“That’s how frustrated I am… Aaah, even though the times I appear in the main story have finally increased, this treatment is unfair”

“S, surely the next time will be full of your screen time!”

“I ain’t need poor consolation… Good grief. Aah, everyone has it nice”

In a fluster Lidi tried to somehow patch things up with envious Cain.

The witch happily watched it alone with her mouth slackening.

The witch showed a smile and put a piece of youkan Lidi brought in her mouth.

“Yup… delicious”

Today too it’s very tranquil in the witch’s house.
