Why do the places called school all love exams so much? Even though it was right after taking the entrance exams, as soon as we started out the sester, we were given so incomprehensible First Test.

My results? You want to know? You really want to know?

Camille, this isnt the ti to be spacing out, know you? Youre taking the supplentary exam, arent you?

Ruthlessly, my fianc disclosed my current situation. Achille, you bastard, why do you know my results? And moreover, you even know about the supplentary exam! Each and every ti, just where does this childhood friend of mine get his information from?

God, Ive already gotten into the school, so general education is just unnecessarryyy!

If your marks are too bad, you might get expelled you know?

My magic exam schools are good, so its okay!

. .

If you pass the supplentary exams, as a reward Ill buy you the newest edition of the magic items dictionary, you know?

The new edition of the magic items dictionary!? The one thats super hard to get a hold of?

I have a connection.

Achille-sama! Please let try my best!

Well then, lets go to the library. Right now.

I obediently nodded, and was brought to the library by Achille. We passed through a hallway on the way that had the top 10 achievers nas posted up. Im really glad that they dont post up the nas of those who need supplentaries. Hatefully, Achille is the top of the whole general course for the test. Third place for the magic exam as well, and altogether number one As expected, hes beco higher spec than when he was in a ga. Royce-sama has reasonably good results too.

Im number one for the magic exam, but all of my general curriculum subjects were fails, so my combined results were tragic. Theres one more person who tied top in the magic exam but it was sobody unexpected. Just like , they smacked out a perfect result. I didnt expect that they would be magically inclined though

You can do it if you try, Camille.

Even if you say that

For a while therell be less work, so of course youll be putting that ti into studying, right?

Yeah, but

Despite the library being quite large, there were few people. The whole student body comprises fifty or sixty people, so you can tell just how many people need to study right this instant. During this period, theres no demand for a library.

Camille, lets go sit over there.

Achille and I took up seats in a corner, far away from the reception. Its a place that makes it difficult for the other students to see us. It seems to be Achilles own way of showing concern by making sure my exam failure isnt exposed to the other students. Or it could be that he doesnt want people to know that his fiance failed.

Okay, open up your textbook!

Uuu

For the sake of the new edition of the magic item dictionary, I have no choice but to study. I gathered my determination, and opened up the massive textbook. First up is the subject that Im less bad at, the history of this nation. History sure is hard to rember, huh? There are too many people with the sa na. Back when I was in high school as well, there were all these Fujiwaras and Tokugawas, so I had a hard ti

Camille, for this question

Achille began explaining to . His explanations are really easy to understand, so once Ive heard it once, I wont make a mistake a second ti. Itd be nice if I went through things with him each ti I learnt sothing new, but getting lost in my magic research and job, before I knew it, the day of the exam had co.

Achille, youre close.

If I dont sit closer, I wont be able to teach you, right?

But

How do I say this? Isnt he kind of sticking too closely to ? Last ti when we studied, I dont think he was this close, but I an, his left hand! Achilles left hand is on my waist

Camille, are you listening? Look, you arent concentrating at all.

I am listening, you know? Your lessons are easy to rember Theyre Spartan, though.

But I might not be able to concentrate No good, if I fail this supplentary exam as well, Ill end up stuck with supplentary lessons. Wont the precious ti I have to enjoy magic get cut down? Already, Im cutting down my work ti for my studies

I dont want my work ti to get cut down. When I talked to Ai about this before entering school, she looked at with slightly disapproving eyes, and said You sure are father and daughter, arent you?. I asked Otousama to increase my workload, but I was rejected It looks like I have no choice but to put effort into my studies.

Achille is quite patient, and is willing to teach . Hes cutting down his own free ti. Even soone like feels sorry about that.

Achille Ill pay you back for this later, okay? Youre always helping with my studies, so Im quite grateful to you.

Theres no need to thank . After all, looking after you isnt sothing that started just now.

Hes completely right Im feeling exceedingly sorry about all this.

I dont hate being alone together with you like this, you know?

But because of that, ti spent on yourself is getting cut down.

This is ti spent on myself though

As if thats the case!

Youre not the one who gets to decide that, Camille. Im the one who gets to choose what to do with my ti, after all.

Today, Achille is being overbearing in various ways.

Uuu

Theres no choice. Ive given up. If we end up arguing, sobody like has no chance of beating Achille.

Phewww, its over~!

Sohow or other I managed to get through the material for all the subjects in the supplentaries. After this, all I need to do is review the material by myself. The night is already about to begin, and its pitch black outside the window. Theres nobody left except the library staff.

You sure tried hard. With this, youre fine for your supplentaries.

Mn, thank you Achille. You really saved Supplentary lessons wouldnt be funny.

Thats right, it wouldnt be funny. If your ti got taken up by sothing like that, Id be bothered after all.

Eh

As for the pay back that you ntioned, is it okay if I make a request?

? Of course.

Suddenly, Achille who was sitting in the seat next to forcefully pulled over with the left hand he had wrapped around my waist, and hugged .

Fuwah-? Eh-? Achille?

Whats going on? For him to suddenly cling to This hasnt happened even once before.

Camille I like you.

Heh? L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-Like? Like as in that like? That one? Not this one? He doesnt an this like, but that like, right? E-, Even Ive had a boyfriend before in my past life, okay!? We broke up in just two weeks, though. We did nothing but hold hands, though! But I at least have enough ability to distinguish which like he ans, okay? This is the Affection Plus Friendship-type like. Right?

Umm Achille, this

Achilles cobalt eyes are narrowed lustfully and peering in on my face. What does he an to do by turning on his passion on at full force? Use it sowhere else.

Like I said, Im claiming my reward.

I see! So Achille is taking a non-physical reward out of kindness. Then just this ti, Ill take him up on his words.

If its just this, you can hug as much as you want, you know? I dont think that hugging soone like is anything near enough of a thank you, though.

Achille has bco quiet, still hugging . He looks kind of discouraged Why? So he really is dissatisfied with soone like as repaynt? Even though he should have just done sothing like this whenever he wanted.

Umm, Achi-

Even though I already told you that I was fine with you. Even though I said that I liked you Why wont you believe ?

Heh?

For so reason, Achille is in a bad mood.

How many tis do I have to confess before youre happy? Why do you imdiately write things off with the words soone like ?

Because, thats-

Theres no way that Id help a girl each and every ti with her studies if I didnt like her, right? Camille, just what on earth do you think I am?

A saintly childhood friend with deep feelings of friendship. Was that wrong?

Camille, youre too dull. I thought that you were gradually noticing, but youre showing no signs of noticing at all

I started feeling awkward, and clumsily averted my eyes. I dont know what kind of face to make. I an, its Achille, you know? Up until now, Ive shown him all my worthless and pathetic parts. I can guarantee that Ive worn him out.

I got engaged to you because I like you, and those feelings havent changed even now.

No way

Even if Im your fianc, if you dont want to then I wont do anything, okay? Your feelings take preference, and Or so I was thinking, but Im sick of doing nothing but waiting. Ive reached my limit. There are rude bastards who are trying to take you from the side too, after all.

I couldnt really hear the second half, but Achille telling that he likes in that way is I sohow understand. I ended up understanding. Which ans that all the kindness up until now was for that reason as well? Helping with studying today as well

Holy crap

Thats my line. How long do you think this took?

You have bad taste huh, Achille?

Seriously.

I can tell that my blood is rushing to my face. My face is probably redder than its ever been. If I didnt insult him, I dont think Id be able to stand from the embarassnt. With my face still hanging, Im frozen like a statue. Even if I try to run, Achille is tightly holding onto my whole body.

Camille.

He slowly called out my na. In a voice thats sweeter than Ive ever heard it. What is this? Its earthshatteringly embarassing, you know?

Raise your face?

N-, No way!

My face is absolutely red right now. As if Id show such a pathetic face to this guy!

But my resistance was futile, and my chin was forcefully raised by Achilles hand.

Let go -!

Huhu Your face is red.

Achilles expression looks incredibly happy. Is my pathetic face that amusing? So cruel!

Gee- Stop, thats embarassing.

It looks like I have a bit of a chance, huh? Right, Camille?

As if Id know! Please, just give a break already, and stop looking at my face!

Its no good, Im at my limit. I dont think I can bear this nauseatingly sweet mood anymore. Alright, lets escape!

T-, thats right! I suddenly rembered sothing incredibly important that I have to attend to!

I began speaking in a loud voice.

Hm~m?

Achille is grinning. Damnit, in psychological warfare, I have no way of winning at all.

If its sothing important, then it cant be helped, huh? Ill walk you to your room.

Umm, I can go by myself, so Lets part here.

Ill walk you to your room.

Hes pushing it with a smile. Theres no need to get into work mode in a place like this, so geez!

In the end, it was impossible to disrupt Achilles pace, and because there was arguing, I let him see to my room.
