Otome Game Rokkushuume, Automode ga Kiremashita

Chapter 50



Wha-!?

M-Mariabell-sama?

Both of them looked at me with wide-eyes.

Yes, Im sorry. I also think my words were rather mean, but I didnt mean it in any bad way. It was just purely meant as a question, or perhaps a feeling?

In both shoujo manga and otome games, there is always at least one scenario depicting love between different social classes. Its mostly just interactions between males and females, but lets just ignore that part.

The villainess who spreads false rumors about the heroine to put her down in order to attract the prince. Just like what I saw in Prince Runas route.

At that time with the heroinealthough Im quite positive the other party wasnt a girl, but that aside, she is essentially in the same position as the heroine at that time.

However, I had always wondered something about the heroines behavior at that time.

Its just that does Erumeru think she is the only person who will affect my reputation?

Her remark appears as if she is thinking about the other party, but if taken objectively it seems as if shes just talking about her own worth.

Of course the heroines actions were due to the various rumors spread about her, since Mariabell was aiming to separate them her response is correct in a certain sense but..in Erumerus case, no one has said anything to her correct?

Isnt she just being self-depreciating of herself because of the surrounding gazes?

Beliefs and actual impressions are two different things, and those are just your own thoughts, I didnt wish for such a thing at all

Erumeru is free to get depressed of her own accord. Its irritating to the mark, but if Erumeru is thinking and acting of her own will then its up to her to take responsibility for that.

But this time, by acting to be worried about me she ended up pushing responsibility onto me.

I dont know if Erumeru herself knew this or not..but I suppose probably not.

She appeared genuinely troubled, so I believe she felt this was the best course of action.

But deciding whether the words and actions are right or wrong isnt up to the sending side but rather the receiving side, in this case that would be me.

As for me, I dont want such bothersome matters so please excuse me for destroying it.

Youre saying my reputation will drop because I am with a commoner, but even if youre not here with me my reputation will still drop with good reason. Thus even without you being here I can still end up being looked down on

Thats just how reputation works.

When it drops it will drop no matter what and when it rises it will rise no matter what. The evaluation of people is multifaceted and changes easily just as easily as emotions can change.

In short, its a waste of time to care. Especially for a person like me who lacks planning abilities.

And the main reason why I shouldnt ostracize commoners.

I have a childhood friend, he is the son of my houses gardener..he already has an attribute and I entered together with him yesterday

Attributewait, is that true?

Yes

The gardeners sonso that means

Of course, he is a commoner

Keeping commoners away would also mean keeping Keito away.

My childhood friend is an indispensable existence for me, he is the person I rely on the most, and I take pride in our trust between each other. So if I were to keep away from you because your a commoner, it would also mean losing my precious childhood friend at the same time

This sort of thing cannot even be joked about.

When comparing the evaluations of a complete stranger and Keito, even without thinking about it Keito is much more important.

Thats why I dont want to use my status as a wall. Of course, regardless of status, if Erumeru just doesnt like me, then there is no helping it

Ive spoken rather selfishly, if she comes to dislike me then its just my loss. I wasnt trying to be mean or anythingbut this is just how I personally felt.

But if she still thought that status act as a wall between interactions.

Nobles keeping away commoners, and commoners keeping away from nobles, in the end arent those two essentially the same thing?

Because nobles try to distance themselves from commoners, in return the commoners also try to stay away from nobles.

Since Im aware of the slight differences in overall meaning.

I am completely fine with accepting her.

But after that the ultimate decision lies with Erumeru.

It would be bad if Primera were to also suddenly distance herself as a result so its actually quite scarymaking friends is rather thrilling, theres no mistake in that.

I will eat by myself for today, there might be various feelings of confusion or angerbut, please remember that I only want to become friends with the two of you

After saying that I stood up.

Ive already ordered something for lunch, so I will not be able to leave the dining hall, but if I sit somewhere far away from here it shouldnt be a problem. The dining hall is very large after all.

I felt many gazes following me when I moved away but I continued forth ignoring them.

So this is what Erumeru was talking about..

In the end, I didnt speak with them even after lunch, and so my second day after enrollment was over.
