Chapter 104

After a shocking reunion with Diadora, who was now employed with the Galois Magic Academy, I had the Headmaster serve as witness as I signed a contract with Dramina, in order to make her my familiar.

Copying after the precedence of Selina’s contract, we used the power of the god La Venta to erase the part of the contract that forced Dramina to be obedient to me as her master.

Immediately after the familiar contract with Dramina was finished, the Headmaster gave Dramina a medal which she had prepared beforehand. Dramina hung the medal from her neck like a pendant, just like the way Selina wears hers. Dramina looked at the medal happily, which had her name, as the familiar, and my name, as the master, engraved on it.

This master-servant relationship is honestly not really my cup of tea, but both Selina and Dramina made such happy faces after signing the contract.

「Fumu, Dramina, I just want to ask, why do you look so happy right now?

Selina was like that too, but becoming a familiar is usually not something to be happy about」

I suppose it’s because they gained a reason to boldly stand by my side in this world, so it isn’t strange for them to be a little happy about that. But still, they just appeared too happy to me.

Diadora, who had been watching over the ritual for signing the familiar contract, let out a very erotic sound, as if she had just come up with a good idea, and then she smiled.

Her charming smile was laden with mischievousness, and in response, Selina and Dramina’s shoulders shook, their wary vigilance clearly visible.

I understand those two’s feelings, but weren’t they being a little too sensitive and overly cautious?

Diadora’s words and actions up until now seem to have instilled a feeling of weakness, or a sense of caution, in them.

Selina aside, Dramina was once a queen. If her subjects saw her now, wouldn’t they become speechless?

「You don’t have to be so on guard, jeez. It’s just that I can more or less understand it, those feelings of yours.

That medal is proof that you are a familiar. That you are Dran’s familiar. In other words, it’s proof that you belong to Dran. Am I wrong?」

Ahh, so it can be thought of in that way. They’re mine, huh.

Well, Selina and Dramina are my fiances, and I am also theirs, so that isn’t wrong. But saying it in that way makes it sound like I’m treating the two of them like possessions, so I end up feeling disgust toward just that part of the contract.

But if they can become this happy from that, then should I just be proud that I was fortunate to have been born male?

「Selina, Dramina, is it really as Diadora says?」

When I tried to gauge the truth with that question, Selina and Dramina each held their own medals in their hands, lowered their eyes for a moment, and tried to evade answering by laughing.

It seems Diadora had hit the bull’s eye. But, well, these two have grown to have similar actions, as if they were sisters.

「Oh my, well, it is something that is direct proof of my relationship with you, and it’s also something that other people can look at and know, that I belong to you」

Selina embarrassedly wagged the tip of her deep green colored tail, and seeing that, the Headmaster narrowed her eyes a little.

She was probably already tired of our lovey-dovey talk from earlier, but now she must be getting really fed up with it.

I do feel bad about it, but it’s also a fact that the people involved with the flirting are having fun.

I am also one of those people, and having the snake girl and vampire queen who I both love, show their affection for me so clearly just makes me so happy, I can’t help it.

「It is as Selina-san says, so I am a little embarrassed to admit it, but that’s how it is.

Dran, the fact that there is visible indication of our relationship is enough to make our hearts race.

Fufu, if people who used to know me were to see me now, I have no idea just how much they would lament over me, but the fact is that I am yours. That is something we are happy about, please always remember that」

「Fumu, I’ll engrave it deep in my heart so I never forget」

「You sure are loved, Dran. I don’t intend on losing to the two of them」

In response to Diadora, who was conveying her affection audaciously with a positive smile on her face, I answered with a direct acceptance of her feelings.

「I also intend on loving everyone just as much as you all love me. I think I am really unworthy, since I can’t even decide on just one of you」

Because Christina-san seemed to be absent from my side as I strongly confirmed my feelings, the Headmaster couldn’t relax, and her sour expression steadily worsened.

It might be fun to speak fondly toward loved ones, but overdoing it in front of others will make them uncomfortable.

But even so, when we reunited with Dramina earlier, Lenia was extremely opposed and protested vehemently, but due to her insatiable craving for tea and cakes, she was now eating instead of rampaging.

When I told Lenia that I was engaged to Selina and Dramina, she started treating them with a more dignified attitude, but it would be a help if she would continue behaving that way in the future.

It could be that she was learning about human emotions through my relationships with them, and she was becoming more of an adult.

「Now then, the Headmaster’s face has been quite stiff for a while now, so let’s change the subject.

So, Diadora will be working in the botanical garden, but has her living arrangements been decided, Headmaster?」

In response to me voluntarily changing the subject, the Headmaster refilled her own cup of tea while she answered.

I wonder just how much mental strife did she endure during our flirting. I’m really sorry.

「We invited several others from Ente Forest, but in Diadora’s case, we prepared a room for her in the botanical garden.

We’ll be entrusting the care of all the black roses in the garden to her, after all, so we need her to be nearby just in case.

Diadora, I have no intention of butting in on your actions during your time outside of work, but you can’t make a move on Dran while he’s in class.

Also you are not allowed to enter the boys’ dorm without permission.

I am aware that you are ignorant of this society’s rules and customs, and I know that it is convenient for you to be able to be near Dran, but if you wish to keep working here at the Magic Academy, then you must follow our rules.」

Diadora originally didn’t know much about human ethics and common sense, and there were many occasions when she ignored such conventions, but she does understand what responsibility is, so she answered the Headmasters words while shrugging her shoulders.

「Until I complete the work that was given to me, I don’t intend doing something so irresponsible such as going to see Dran.

It’s true that I’m not familiar with the lifestyle and the rules of this place, but I will refrain from leaving work unfinished just because there are things I don’t know.

But in that case, during the times when it isn’t a problem to meet with Dran, I won’t hold back」

As soon as Diadora said that, she sent me a gaze packed full of love, and I unconsciously recalled the sensation of her lips.

Upon seeing the mood between me and Diadora, it doesn’t even need to be mentioned that even though they were in good moods just moments ago, Selina and Dramina immediately puffed up with jealousy.

Dramina sure has become good at puffing up her cheeks like Selina does.

After that, we talked for a little bit about the upcoming Magic Tournament and our classes for the second semester, and then we left the Headmaster’s office.

Diadora stayed behind, but it was probably to comfort the Headmaster, who looked like she was experiencing heartburn.
