 If you spend a little time with a person, you can get a pretty good idea of what kind of person they are. It's just that the people around Cather Liz were not normal.

 Besides, Alicia's dealing with Cather Liz. As her watchdog.

 Liz looks at me pleadingly.

 Why is she so desperate? Maybe she doesn't have any friends at the school?

 I'm a man, after all. I can't leave a girl alone when I see her crying. Or rather, Alicia is going to get angry with me if I ignore Cather Liz at this point.

"Thank you. ......I've never told anyone this, but I've always had a complex about being from a commoner background. No matter how much I tell myself, I can't help my status. People around me look at me with contempt. I thought I could just be myself, but that didn't work out too well.
