Leila, it's not...?

　I shuddered at the words Celes-san uttered.
　I tried to deny it in a hurry, but

Oh, you're not Leila, are you?
What are you talking about, Lisa?　Leila is Leila!
No, no!　It's similar, but it smells a little different from Leila-san!

　The smell!

And the mole on his face is in the wrong place!

　That's it!
　Mr. Celes, how much detail do you know about Leila?

　No, come to think of it, it's been a long time since I entered the school.
　We're in the same dorm room, and now we're in the same seminar.
　It's only natural that the longer the two of them are in contact, the easier it is to notice the differences between them when they are replaced.

　Aaaaah!
　Why didn't I think of something so simple!
　The replacement should have been the last time they replaced him!

　And, of course, you don't have to guess who they replaced it with--

Ark, Mr....?

　I gave up and surrendered.
　It's not a good idea to resist, but if you resist here, it will only make the impression worse.

''Yes that's right I'm sorry....''







　The next day, I was gathered in an empty classroom with Leila, Ms. Celes, and Rikka.
　Celes-san hadn't uttered a single word since a while ago, and that was very scary.

''........Did you know about this too, Ricca-san?
Yes. I knew it.
Why were you complicit in this?
It looked so interesting.
It looked interesting...?

　At Rikka's oblique words, Celes-san raised her eyebrows.
　Rikka, who says clearly to the princess-sama counterpart, is the same as always.

'Well, well, we can talk about you later. First of all, Leila. It is correct to say that this matter was brought up by you, isn't it?
Yeah, I do.
May I ask why?
I wanted to go to the martial arts department as well!

　And Leila, who happily tells the truth, is still the same.

　But I'm glad you told the truth.
　If this is the case, I can be treated as a victim too........or not?

The two of you are the opposite s*x.　Inevitably, that means sleeping in a dormitory of the opposite s*x!　If they find you, you'll be expelled!
Hmm, I think I'm okay with that.
Mr. Leila.

　As expected, Celes-san is also dumbfounded by Leila.
　Yeah, that's good.
　The flow of the source of the problem is completely Leila.

''........Why did Ark-san comply?
'Well first Leila forced me to ... and then Rikka threatened me. She said she'd spill the beans if I didn't do what she said.

　Both of those things are true.
　Oh, come to think of it, I'm really not a total victim, am I?

Mr. Leila, Mr. Ricca, are you sure?
Yeah!
It's true.

　They both nodded clearly.

''Huh....

　Celes let out a deep sigh.

''What are you doing at all........ .........It can't be helped. Normally, this is a matter that should be reported to the academy and punished...................You guys owe me. Let's meditate on this case.

　I let out a breath of relief.
　'Thank you, Celes, thank you.

''But.....

　And there, for some reason, Celes-san's sharp gaze shot through me.

'There's one condition for that. Can you tell us all about when the two of you were switched, what you saw and what you did there?
'What?'

　That's not good!
　Because if they know about it...

I'll tell you.
Wait, Ricka!
'At first, about a week after I started school. I went to class instead of Leila, and at night I went to the girls' dorm bath--
Ohhhh!






''I didn't expect you to go to the big bathroom... and I didn't expect you to think it was Leila... and that sleepless day you slept in bed with me...''

　When Rikka finished telling her everything, Ms. Ceres was plodding and shaking.

　Oh no!
　I'm freaking out!
　My face is as red as an apple!

　Glancing sideways, Rikka grinned and smiled happily.
　This guy.........!

"I mean ... that I ... allowed Mr. Ark to see ... and ... and ... and ... and ... and ... and ... and ... and ... and ...
I'm sorry!

　I got down on my knees on the spot.
　Even if I am reborn, my soul is still Japanese.
　I had no choice but to apologize.

I'll take whatever punishment I can get!

　Mr. Ceres looked red-faced and silent for a moment, and then

...Oh, Ark-san. I'm going to ask you to take responsibility for this.
Yes.....

　Hmm?　Responsibility?

What's the complaint?
'No!　Of course, I'm willing to accept whatever it takes!　So what do I do...?
That's...oh, I'll tell you after you graduate from this academy!

　What?　Not now!

No, not yet!

　For some reason, Celes-san turns redder and redder and refuses.

　
　I'd be more than happy to tell you right now.

　Maybe that's a punishment in itself?
　If so, that's pretty mean.
　It's not like you, Celes-san.

　But if it's to appease Celes-san's anger, I'll just accept it.
　I'm not sure if this is the right way to go, but I'm sure it is.
