Translated by Shufen

UneditedThere’s silence between us againThis situation isn’t smallIn the first place, I’ally enters htIn my state of confusion, he suddenly told me to “come with me”If I didn’t read the situation correctly, it would’ve caused my heart rate to increase in vainHowever, I immediately understood that the words Noel said didn’t hold any sweet implicationSo…that ht?“…Why?” (Haruka)I aIt’s impossible to carelessly take Noel’s hand“Why are you not being protected by Hamuti-sama?” (Noel)

“…I told hiirl like me” (Haruka)

At that tireed that it was reasonableHowever, with the appearance of Noel in front of ht answerNaturally that made my voice smaller“With hi me, he would’ve made me a new maid in Otland-sama’s mansion” (Haruka)

“… Ha the for chaos to the royal palace” (Noel)

“I’ usedI wasn’t asked to do it by Hamuti-sama” (Haruka)

“You don’t have to do anythingRather, it would be convenient if you act like yourself” (Noel)

“I don’t understand theof your words at all! Clearly explain it to me” (Haruka)

“In other words, you’re a decoy!” (Noel)

Decoy?

“Noel, I understand the situation well” (Haruka)

Noel kept silent and continue to look at me“But I will not go with you” (Haruka)
