My Childhood Friends Who I Thought Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me - Chapter 70
70. The secret with the princess. I love it!
Chapter 70. The secret with the princess. So good!
Lea, the secretary of the student council, hesitated.
She, who had been silent for a long time, spoke her words cautiously.
“Can you listen to what I have to say without being offended at all?”
Lea glanced at Chloe.
What are you trying to say? It was when she had such doubts.
After hesitating, she hesitated once more and then let her luck rise.
“It is a very different opinion from the mainstream.”
At that moment, Chloe instinctively felt it.
Her answer might be helpful.
Since she joined the student council, she said for the first time that he would like her.
“It’s okay. Please tell me.”
Lia was worried about Chloe’s soft voice before opening her mouth.
“This may be an unreasonable suggestion, but…. How about recruiting Tail-kun to the student council?”
At Lia’s words, Chloe’s eyes widened.
It felt like my ears were clearing up.
Her heart raced.
“Maybe. Can you elaborate?”
When Chloe showed a surprised expression, Lia hesitated a little, as if becoming more cautious about her reaction.
She seemed unsure whether she liked her or not.
Seeing that, Chloe felt impatient.
I wanted to shake Lia’s shoulder right away and shout for her to come out.
Chloe slowly opened her mouth, suppressing her feelings.
“I have absolutely no intention of getting angry, so tell me.”
She grinned, forcing her seething stomach to settle.
“From the proposal to recruit a commoner who wants to be excluded, it seems that he wants to solve the situation wisely rather than riding on the public sentiment of the academy. Is not it?”
“As expected Chloe-sama… !”
Lea was moved by Chloe’s words.
“You know my heart!”
Seeing her expression as if praising God, Chloe almost stepped back for a moment.
To be honest, the madness of those clear eyes is a bit burdensome.
‘No, actually, a lot….’
If she had come with a way to ease her relationship with Tails though, she could have gotten a hundred looks like this.
Lia opened her mouth as if she had made up her mind.
“Then let me tell you what I think.”
Chloe nodded her head as she let go of her rhyme.
“Tail-kun is a commoner, but the Academy Board of Directors won’t be happy if you just reject him like this.”
That was right.
Above all, the board of directors is a place where the opinions of the imperial family are actively reflected.
The imperial family demanded equality in the academy, but it was not reflected well.
So it must be quite a headache for the board of directors.
“The reason is that the board probably won’t just make this rule of ‘equality’ obsolete.”
They, too, would like to actively utilize this tone, such as ‘Equal talent selection’ or ‘Equal within the academy,’ not just for show, but for propaganda.
Then we shouldn’t leave the commoners unattended.
“Besides, in the worst case scenario, those commoners might overcome the ostracism of the nobles and form their own territories,”
Currently, the academy is divided even among nobles.
If even a goal was formed between the nobles and the commoners, and eventually the commoners created their own forces, the board of directors would be in great trouble.
“And if a force arises, there is a high possibility that Tail-kun will be at the center of it.”
Currently, Tail is the most famous and talented person among commoners.
So, the position of the board of directors is to twist the tail somehow and make it settle well in the academy.
He would think that in that way, an atmosphere in which commoners would not be ignored would be created, and commoners could naturally mix with nobles.
“So we have to recruit the student council first.”
Lea’s eyes sparkled with intelligence.
“Our student council needs to fill the emotional gap between the nobles and the famous.”
Lea quickly continued.
“The beginning and symbol of that is to recruit Tail-kun, the chief of the common people, to the student council.”
At her words, Chloe was momentarily dazed as if her head had been beaten.
‘Was he originally this smart?’
But that didn’t matter,
Because right now, Chloe really wants to clap.
I don’t think there will be such a deep impression.
She seemed to be a ray of light and give strength to him who was wandering aimlessly.
Let’s put tail in the student council.
This idea was, in fact, a strategy I had thought about ten times in passing.
But I couldn’t dare to try.
Chloe was well aware of how hostile the air at the academy was towards the commoners, especially Tailie.
That’s why, she thought, few of the other nobles, especially within the student council, would give such thoughts.
Because the public opinion against him was so serious that it is hard to think of an exception.
Of course, it got a little better thanks to Tail’s overwhelming victory over Kromhell.
However, it was only that the term used to refer to Tails had changed from ‘unlucky and incompetent commoner’ to ‘unlucky but capable commoner’.
Not much, not noticeably different.
That’s why the Krom Hell effect is probably short-lived.
She was sure to bite at any slight opening in the tail.
‘So, when you have an opportunity like this, you should make good use of it.’
There aren’t many nobles who think like this.
When you find it, pull it out as much as you can and eat it.
After finishing her thoughts, Chloe raised a rhyme as if she had brought up the story after careful consideration.
“Ah. Actually, it’s not something I haven’t thought about.”
At that moment, Lia’s eyes lit up.
“Then… ! He said he had the same thoughts as me and the chairman!”
Chloe narrowed her eyes as she shouted loudly.
No. That’s not the main point.
Like it or not, Lia muttered in rapture as her cheeks blushed.
“How dare you and the president have similar thoughts! It’s like a dream!”
Chloe smiled awkwardly at Lia, who was blushing and flowing, and called out to her.
“Ah. Yes…. Lia? Can I continue talking?”
“Oops. Look at my mind yes. Please speak. President.”
Lia, who suddenly came to her senses, fixed her gaze on Chloe again.
“Kuhm. So, going back to the main point. I thought about it, but I couldn’t dare.”
Leah nodded her head vigorously in understanding.
“It is not easy to move alone.”
“However, as soon as I found the person who agreed, I felt like I had won thousands of dollars.”
Chloe thought she should throw the bait here.
She knew very well how she would catch and challenge her fish if it was Leah.
Chloe gently held Lia’s hand.
At the same time, Lia’s eyes widened.
Leah felt as if the area where her hands touched was burning hot.
“Hey, Chloe-sama?”
Like it or not, Chloe had her say.
“I’m so glad you’re the one with whom I can sympathize.”
Of course.
Among these many people.
I’m glad it’s you.
At those words, Lia’s cheeks turned bright red.
It felt like being acknowledged.
To Chloe, the head of the student council and the princess whom she respects and fears so much.
“Haa….”
I was ecstatic.
She dared to hold the princess’ hand.
I wanted to let everyone know about this.
It must be handed down from generation to generation.
Leah wiggled her hands.
Every time that happened, I could feel Chloe’s thin fingers.
She was to the point of wanting to seal her own hand that Chloe touched.
But she had to put up with it because if she cut it and sealed it, she wouldn’t be of any help to Chloe-sama.
Meanwhile, Chloe continued her words.
“So please help me. Lia.”
Chloe’s blue eyes shone beautifully.
“First of all, we need to gather the opinions of all the student council members to one side. Please gather awareness of Tails in a positive direction as much as possible.”
Chloe said earnestly to Lia.
“If I step forward, I will only become a bad person who will be suppressed by superiors.”
“Ah. No. Then you can’t.”
What a bad person!
I couldn’t dare let Lady Chloe’s reputation fall.
“That’s why I’m begging you. Please join me.”
Lea’s cheeks turned red again.
A place in her heart tickled.
“Ham, together… !”
You dare to be ‘together’ with the princess!
I felt like I was losing my mind.
Looking at Lia like that, Chloe put a wedge in.
It’s like a period in a sentence.
“Let’s keep this a secret between the two of us.”
“Secret!”
Leah nodded vigorously at Chloe’s words.
“My secret with the princess. So good!”
It felt like we became special to each other.
Leah felt so good that she wondered if it was a dream.
She never looked anywhere to speak, and she smiled lightly at Chloe.
“There are only 15 days left until the student council membership deadline, so let’s move quickly.”
All this to bring my tail.
Leah answered with a broad smile.
From noble mtl dot com
“Yes, yes!”
Lea thought to herself.
‘All this for the sake of the princess!’
