Book 3: Chapter 17: Lady Sophia's Wish Part 7
I escorted Lady Sophia to her classroom before heading towards the Servant course's classroom. There, I attended class like usual and, after that, I made my way to the Student Council’s office during lunch break.
In contrast to Imperial Princess Charlotte, who was taking classes with the Nobility course, I was taking the Servant course's classes, so I could do pretty much whatever I wanted during lunch break. However, on the other hand, I couldn't drop by Lady Sophia’s tea parties as often.
“Ah, Cyril. You came to see me today as well?”
“…Fol, please stop it with the scandalous jokes.”
Even though Fol had escaped her fate of an untimely death, she was still in the Student Council’s office all by herself, as usual—or, to be more specific, she was accompanied only by her maid, Lia. Could it be that she didn’t have any friends in her class?
“Hey, you are thinking of something rude just now, aren’t you?”
“Ah, I was wondering if perhaps you don’t have any friends…”
“This isn’t a situation where you can ‘be honest and you shall be forgiven’, you know? Although my illness was kept a secret, wouldn’t it be suspicious if I were to suddenly change my behaviour? So I am doing what I always have.”
“…I see. So you’re not denying that you don’t have any friends.”
