Hi, I'm Fee. Now, finally, finally.... the Commencement Ceremony and Elle's special lecture are over... yes, it's over...!　I couldn't help but cry as Elle finished her lecture.

'Uhhhhhh. Elle ughhhhhh, that was good, oh my goodness.

　It was good. I'm so happy for you. It went off without a hitch. There were some bad times along the way, but I was able to make it work with my follow-up to the quicksilver. I didn't know that crop idiot could do so well... I was so happy that Elle was growing up in so many ways.

　This is already a nose job. There's not much I've taught Elle, but I'll have to continue to take good care of her!

　While thinking about this, Elle and I were going to a drinking party with great enthusiasm.


"So, Elle, listen to me. What is it, isn't your mother going to be married for a long time?　You don't?　It's so loud...
'Fee is 27 this year, I believe.　Well, I might be tempted to say that. Besides, aristocrats are all about marriage, aren't they?
Well they say it's important to leave behind children who are good at what they do, but who am I, you know?　Isn't that great?
Well........you're excellent. He's in his late 20s, head of the academy, and a platinum alchemist.
Yeah, yeah. And we're going to have a blind date or something, right?　With a man from a respectable family?　But because my background is so amazing, people are very humble about it. They say I'm not worthy of the three noblemen who run the academy and are platinum alchemists. That's right, I tried my best to be like that and now you're having a hard time here.
...It's not easy being a nobleman.


　I'm in a good mood now that I've had a drink. I got a present from Elle earlier, and I feel even better. I never dreamed that Elle would have a gift for me, and I'm so glad she did. Today might be the happiest day of my life. Free from all kinds of spells and having my beloved disciple celebrate it. There's nothing like being a master like this. Well, the ranks are reversed now..........and ho ho ho.


''Huh........I wonder if there's a man better and younger than me who is more balanced.
What about the Order?
'Hmm, it's possible but I don't know. Maybe there aren't any more people like that in the Order.
Yeah, that's tough. I'm sorry to hear that. I'll let you know if I can find someone who can help you.
Yeah ..........


　Yeah, is it stupid?　This crop idiot is still blind to his surroundings. I don't think there's any other man who's a match for me but you!

　In fact, I've been approaching Elle lately. It's outrageous to mess with my student!　Some of you may be thinking, "Well I'm done...I don't want to be bullied among the nobility. Whenever I attend a nobleman's party, they always ask me if I'm still married?　They say things like. The same goes for my family and relatives. I know that my father also laments that he's too elitist to get it for nothing and that he doesn't get it.

　Then you can get the man closest to you!　That's good!　Because Elle is so cool, and more importantly, she's a blue star class "Bluestella"!　

　Elle is the only one who can match me. I never used to think about that in the slightest, but lately I've been wondering if it's a fraternity for my apprentice, or if I really have romantic feelings for him. I'm approaching him to find out.

　But this man, he's never fazed. Not at all. All he can think about is studying the crops in his brain.

　I know that Serena of the Brew family has been staring at Elle with a strange, s*xy look in her eyes lately. And I know that her mother also likes Elle. You can't underestimate the information network among the nobles.

　But the problem is that Elle and I are ten years apart in age. Yes, ten years. That's big, 10 years. Would that make it better for Serena, who's relatively close in age?　I feel a little sad when I think about it. Yeah.........

　Because of that, I drank today. That's it, I drank. On the way, Elle said, "You're drinking too much, Fee," but I ignored that. Today is the first day I've been released in a long time. I'm free ah!!!!


　And from there I dream happy dreams.


'Come on, quick!　Let me take it off!　Elle!　Quickly!


　Yes, I dreamed that I was in love with Elle. All my life I've been acting alone and stoutly. Even my parents couldn't allow me to take advantage of them, and I've been working alone as a platinum alchemist in the Medis family, the top three noble families, all by myself.

　But with Elle, you can support each other with me. I am no longer alone.

　From my subconscious, I decided to spoil Elle in my dreams. I had a series of things I wanted to do when I had a lover, get undressed, bathe with her, and sleep with her. I wanted to do little things like that. I've never had a lover before, and being a virgin in fact, I wanted to do those little things.

　Now I'm in slumber. In a dream where I can do anything I want. Yes, I can expose myself here.


'No!　Can you sleep with me?　Please.....


　Elle says she's going home. I don't want that!　I want to sleep with you!

　But Elle graduated and became a lecturer because I couldn't and she's behind in her agricultural research. If I keep jittering around here, I'm going to be a ... heavy woman. That would annoy Elle, and it wouldn't be good.

　And Elle just left. It was some kind of weirdly realistic dream, but sometimes it's good to have this happen. I'm sure it was a gift from God. I've been lonely for a long time, and this is a gift for me.

''Hmmm........''

　And so I was falling into slumber again.


　'Beep-beep-beep-beep.

''Hmm?　Morning?

　I wake up. My head still hurts oddly. My head is throbbing. Maybe I had too much to drink yesterday. Then I went to the bathroom to wash my face to wake up.


'Huh?　Is the towel folded?　And the marks from the bath... that was me yesterday...

　I go back in my memory. Come to think of it, how did I get home?　I've been having pleasant dreams for a long time, but... what?　Wait, wait, wait. Huh?　Seriously?　You don't have to do it. Really?


　I searched for all traces of yesterday's dream. The bath, the toothbrush, and even the wardrobe underwear and pajamas. All of that was done by Elle in my dream. When I look at the underwear, it's new, and the pajamas are my favorite bear pajamas that Elle made me wear in my dream.


''........''


　Sir, your face pales.

　Huh?　Wait a minute!　Reality!　That was real!

　I'm screwed!　I immediately headed to Elle's house, who lived next door.



''Yes. Who are you......Oh, the only person who can ring the intercom directly is Fee. Fluffy........what's the matter?　What can I do for you?
'Squeak, squeak, squeak!　Squeak, squeak, squeak!　Hear, hear!
"...?　You're showing off your monkey act?
'Yesterday!　You remember, don't you!

Oh, forget it!　Forget about yesterday, Elle!
I can't do memory manipulation with an alchemy. It's impossible. Well, it was an experience, right?　From now on, you'll have to be more careful with your drinking.
Ummm... so, did you see it?
'No, you know I can assess my surroundings without vision, right?
Yes, but ... you remember the outline, the shape, right?
It's better than being seen in person. If this is what you call s*xual harassment, I'm going to cry. And because of Fee's super advanced wards, I couldn't go home.
'Uh ... I'm sorry. It's my fault on all fronts.

So, how did it go?
Hmm?
Was I pretty?
'No, I can only see your silhouette, so I can't tell if it's pretty or not.
''Well you're right ... haha, I wonder if this is how I'll be able to get married ...''
Well, it'll be a good match for you some day.
Yeah. I'm sorry for barging in on you like this. I'm going home. Bye.
Yeah.

　After that exchange, I trudged back home. Oh, it's over.......all my cool beauty impressions are gone.

'Ohhhhhhhhhh!

　I dive into the couch and writhe in agony.

　My advantage is that I'm supposed to be a capable woman, cool and intelligent... but what was I yesterday?


I can't give it back! Let me take it off! Sleep with me!


　You're an idiot. Am I a brain-sweets girl or am I. Elle looked like she didn't care, but no, in fact, she doesn't care at all, which is even more annoying. You looked at my nakedness through my silhouette........ugh, am I really not attractive?　Yesterday that was a situation where I could have been attacked. My virginity could have been scattered. But nothing. They just took care of me like I was a child. Yeah, that's it.


　Ko!　This must be a form of post-traumatic stress disorder, because of the stress of the day!　So...........


　In the vain of excuses, nothing more comes out of it. I've done it. Yes, I've done it.


　As I am immersed in despair, the house phone rings.


'Huh ... who's this in a situation like this ... yes, hello, this is Alsphira.
'Fee?　Are you home now?
Yes, but what's going on, Mom?


　It was my mother who called me. I thought it was a work call, so I was a little distracted.

'Can you come home now?'
'It's a good thing there's nothing going on today but what's going on?'
The mystics have been acting strangely.......and they're holding a meeting of the nobility, and you're the next head of the family, so come on over.
Well you're a mystic, aren't you?　What now?
'Well I hate to say it, but I don't like Elle's path or something. I've had a lot of complaints about the Medis family starting to surround us, or being arrogant, or whatever. Countermeasures for that.
Yeah yeah it's sluggish. Can't your father handle it?
'It's because of you, too, isn't it?　I can't believe you're surrounding yourself with people who would make you a lecturer at the academy. I could have gotten a better job.
'Yeah, yeah, my fault?　If it weren't for me, Elle would be taking over the family farmhouse now, right?　You're the one who made the biggest concessions.
Well that's not going to change their heads, you know. Well, come along anyway.
.... oooh...


　I hung up the phone and, holding my still aching head, I changed into my outside clothes and headed home.
