Extra Story – Leon’s Foreign School Life

.

I never thought that I would study abroad in my second life.

I was walking alone in the academy of Alzer Commonwealth.

Unfamiliar uniform.

Unfamiliar school building.

Even the smell of the foreign land felt different.

This smell forced me to notice whether I wanted it or not that I was in a foreign country.

──I want to go home to my home country quickly and have a tea party with my fiancées.

I was invincible now that I had been liberated from the marriage hunting.

If it was now I had the confidence that I could enjoy the life in the academy.

And yet, right now I was in the middle of studying abroad──how could I enjoy myself like this?

「Aa~, I want to go home quickly」

『It has only been several days since master come here. Your wish is obviously impossible.』

It was my partner Luxion who answered my muttering seriously.

He was replying to my joke with sarcasm too today.

『Master shouldn’t come here if you don’t want to.』

「I wish that I can do that instead of going through all these hardships.」

If only that otome game didn’t have a sequel, I wouldn’t need to go to an academy at a foreign country.

In my past life I was the type of human who would go 「Studying abroad? Not interested」.

That thinking hadn’t changed even after I reincarnated.

I couldn’t enjoy going abroad to study at all.

「To begin with there isn’t any chance for me to hold a tea party here. Even though I’ve painstakingly brought my tea set here, there isn’t any chance to use them. This is just strange.」

『Master is still going on about tea party?』

「Obviously! That’s my hobby.」

I was awakened to a new hobby after meeting master.

It was tea.

You gathered tea set, prepared tea leaves and snacks, then entertained your guest.

I made fun of it at first, but after that I would hold a tea party once a week when I was at Hohlfahrt.

At most I would invite three people to my tea party.

Inviting girls who I were close with and having pleasant chat with them was my modest enjoyment.

But I couldn’t open such tea party in this academy.

「──I want to go home.」

『Master want to go home just because of tea? Then how about master just invite some girls from here?』

「You moron! I can’t invite other girls when I already have fiancées!」

『Why is master’s thought going to girls right away there? Master can also invite boys.』

「No way. I don’t have friend here anyway.」

I still didn’t have friend because I had only arrived in this country.

『──There are Marie, Julius, and the others.』

「No~, that’s hard to do. Marie is my little sister in my past life. As for Julius and others──they aren’t my friends, they are just a troublesome bunch. That’s not what you call friends.」

『I am really happy to have a master who have few friends.』

This guy’s personality was really a piece of work from how he was teasing me for my lack of friends like this.

──He is quite human even though he is an AI. He is hopeless.

「Forget about that, we got a lot to──oops」

There were female students walking to my direction from ahead in the corridor.

They were holding some items on their hands.

Luxion melted into the surrounding and vanished from view. Then I called out to the girls approaching me.

The girls were looking bewildered. ──In the kingdom’s academy, it was the boys’ role to immediately lend a hand if you happened to see some girls having their hands full.

The attitude toward girl that had been imprinted on me through the one year I spent in the kingdom’s academy showed up even in the academy here.

「Those looks heavy. I’ll help out.」

The girls looked at my face in surprise.

If this was in the kingdom──the girls of the academy there would generally reply with 「Haa? Why are you speaking something so obvious? Take off these things already from our hands」.

The boys would still have to help them even after receiving such ungrateful reply. That was my daily life back in the kingdom’s academy.

Surely the girls in the academy here would also give me a horrible reply as befitting the world of that otome game. That was what I thought.

The girls were looking shy.

「Eh, you will?」

「This person, is her perhaps the overseas student?」

I took the burdens from the two girls a bit forcefully. They were looking embarrassed when I asked them where to bring these things to.

──What is this? Their behavior is strange.

They weren’t hurling abuse at me!?

「Never mind that, where should I bring these things to?」

The two girls looked shy while──.

「Ah, we have to bring them to the staff room. It was really heavy and difficult to carry. Thanks for helping us.」

「You are a big help. Thank you.」

──Thanking me.

I couldn’t hide my shaken expression.

My movement stopped for a moment, causing the two girls to be worried for me.

「Are you alright?」

「Don’t force yourself if they’re too heavy.」

My understanding of the matter was delayed for a moment, but I finally realized that this was the commonwealth, not the kingdom.

There was no lover that was guised as exclusive servant accompanying the girls in this academy.

They weren’t acting haughty while looking down on boys.

Such a normal──academy, it was like a heaven for me.

「I-I’m fine! This much is no problem at all. Come on, let’s deliver them quickly.」

The two girls smiled.

「You’re a big help. The boys in our class will run away from this kind of thing.」

「You overseas students are really gentlemanly.」

I was praised? Could it be, they were praising me?

I was praised just for doing something like this. Was this academy a heaven!?

If the kingdom’s academy where I got insulted even after helping was a black company, then perhaps the academy here was white?

「You girls are exaggerating. This is just a normal thing to do.」

I told them with a smile, but the two girls gave me words of flattery in response.

「You overseas student are kind.」

「I wish the boys here will learn from you. Ah, come to think of it we haven’t asked your name. What is it again?」

I introduced myself with my best posed look.

「I’m Leon. Leon Fou Bartfalt. Just call me Leon without any honorific.」

Then the two girls happily──.

「Got it. Thanks for your help, Leon.」

「Leon eh. That’s a  good name.」

──Conversed with me eagerly. Eagerly!

They weren’t replying with 「Uh huh. And?」 when I introduced myself!

I──got the feeling that I would be able to enjoy my time in this academy.

I kept walking toward the staff room while having a fun talk with the two girls. Then Luxion muttered from nearby.

『──Master looks like you’re having a lot of fun.』

I replied with a small voice.

「Yeah, it looks like I’ll be able to enjoy my time here. I’m──glad I went to study overseas.」

I got the feeling that I would be able to experience a fun school life if it was here.

『I will report to those two if master is cheating. Angelica and Olivia, both of them will be sad if that happens.』

──I’m just having a casual talk here! When you think about my grey school life before this, no one shouldn’t be able to blame me just for having a bit of fun!

『I think it will be for master’s own sake to get harshly scolded by those two at least once.』

This guy really didn’t think of his master as master.

「I should be forgiven from just having a bit of fun. Yes──this isn’t cheating. This is cultural exchange between students of different countries.」

I muttered with a small voice to convince myself.

I was convincing myself that there wasn’t anything wrong with my thinking.

『I’m looking forward whether those two will really forgive master or not after hearing that excuse.』

This guy was really detestable.

──Livia and Ange would surely allow me this much!

Perhaps, surely──I hope they would forgive me.
