Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 48.1

The next day.

As I was about to enter the classroom after having breakfast as usual, a sweet, citrusy fragrance wafted in front of me, and someone stopped in front of me.

“Good morning, Beryl-kun.”

“Oh, uh… good morning, Lady Diana.”

“Just call me Diana. No need to be so formal.”

“…………”

“Hehe.”

The red-haired girl smiled and walked past me into the classroom.

This is… no way…

But my anxiety was proven correct.

The red-haired girl, who had come to me every time during the breaks, kept saying, “You can call me normally now, you know?”

No, no… that’s not what I want… sigh.

Lunch.

Noticing the red-haired girl’s smiling gaze on me, the young lady looked at me with a glare.

“Hey, Beryl.”

“Yes…”

“What’s with that person?”

“Well… I’m not really sure myself.”

So… please don’t look at me like that…

After lunch, the red-haired girl ran over to Lisa and said, “You can call me normally,” but of course, Lisa ran away to hide behind me.

She left, still smiling in a way that could be seen as eerie.

Did I attract the attention of a troublesome person…?

When afternoon classes began, the red-haired girl stood in front of me with a look as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

“Um… Lady Diana.”

“Yes?”

“Are you planning to keep this up forever?”

“Of course.”

Of course? Noooooo! And she’s also an incredibly beautiful girl, so every gesture of hers is adorable! No, that’s not important.

“Ugh…”

“Not to the extent of Alphonse, but call me normally!”

“…Why are you so fixated on me?”

“Well… you seem like a good person?”

“No, actually, I’m a terrible person.”

“Bad people don’t call themselves bad.”

This girl… if you say that…

The young lady intervened between me and the red-haired girl.

“What’s the meaning of this? To my knight.”

“Well… I want to get along with Chloe.”

“Eh? Me…?”

“Yes. It seemed like both Beryl-kun and Chloe don’t look down on people based on their social status. I want to be friends with people like that.”

“…………”

“Beryl-kun is friendly with Alphonse-sama, and it looked like he was very close with Lisa-san, so I was convinced.”

“I understand your reasoning. But getting along with me won’t bring you any benefit. I don’t particularly like commoners.”

“Hmm. But since Beryl-kun admires you, I thought you’d be worth trusting. Besides, as a daughter of the same count family, I genuinely want to get along.”

“…But it’s difficult. The Rudelagan family and the Emblam family don’t get along very well.”

“That may be true for the past and present, but the future might change. Just like how there are commoners who call Alphonse-sama ‘Al’.”

The two of them looked at me.

No… that was just because I was deceived… dammit!

“Fine. I’ll accept your feelings—Beryl.”

“I don’t want to.”

“It’s an order. You’ve already attracted enough attention. Look.”

The gazes of the surrounding students were all focused on us.

Sigh… Considering the situation with Al, I guess I have no choice.

“Alright. Diana-san.”

“Yay~♪”

I sighed at her happy expression.

“Then, let’s start by having Beryl-kun join the class.”

“I knew it would come to this…”

“Let’s have Chloe-san join us as well!”

“Sure.”

In some way, the young lady, who had been drawn into this situation by the red-haired girl, confidently joined the junior baron group, and the flow led Al to join us as well.
