The Princess Sitting Next to Me is a Sweet Girlfriend Only in Front of Me
After “Home” ended, Fia was called by the teacher and left the classroom to help with something.
It’s not a bad thing that Fia is kind-hearted, but she tends to get saddled with various errands from different people.
“Hey, ‘leftover’.”
I was thinking that staying in the classroom would only make the atmosphere worse, so I should just quickly get up and head to the lecture, but then I was called out.
The voice sounded dangerous.
I turned to look, trying not to provoke the person.
“Who gave you permission to talk to Fia?”
There stood a typical guy.
A large man who seemed to have a bad personality.
“Answer me, leftover.”
“I… just returned her greeting and had a casual conversation, that’s all…”
“Don’t mess with me!!”
He grabbed me by the collar.
Damn, he’s in a particularly bad mood today.
Gourie Bafarsky.
The eldest son of the Bafarsky family, one of the top-ranking nobles in this country.
As you can see, he’s a brute, and also the most influential noble offspring in the class.
Well, in short, he’s the central figure of this class.
“First of all, it’s only because of my generosity that a leftover commoner like you is even allowed to breathe in this class. And yet, you dare to talk to Fia? If you weren’t a leftover, I’d cut you down right here and now!”
And, he has feelings for Fia.
Or rather, he believes that since he is a higher-ranking noble than Fia, she naturally belongs to him.
The Carat family is a relatively low-ranking noble family, and it seems they haven’t achieved any notable accomplishments.
For Gourie, thinking this way seems normal.
However, I should mention that Gourie’s way of thinking isn’t typical for nobles in Magipastel.
He’s just particularly tyrannical.
But,
“Really, this is why leftovers are the worst.”
“Why can’t you understand that you’re tarnishing Fia’s status?”
The classmates are swept up in the atmosphere.
What I dislike isn’t just the tyrannical individual, but also those who just go along with it. I want to tell them that.
But still—
“Hey, what are you doing, Bafarsky!”
—I can’t say that in front of her.
“Wh… Fia!? Why are you here!?”
“Why not!? Let go of Heim, or this won’t just be a simple fight!”
Fia had returned to the classroom.
Immediately, the atmosphere shifted from being hostile towards me to being awkward around Fia.
“Damn it… Don’t get too cocky, commoner.”
Even Gourie had to back down in front of Fia.
Released, I let out a sigh of relief.
“Bafarsky, Heim is a scholarship student. He’s a student chosen by the country. If you keep this up, even your father won’t be able to protect you.”
“…Are you mocking me, Fia?”
“No! I’m saying this for your sake!”
Honestly, I dislike the class atmosphere more than Gourie himself, but that aside, Gourie is the type to misinterpret people’s goodwill.
To put it bluntly, he has a bad personality.
I think it’s just exhausting to behave sincerely towards someone like that.
