Despite any apprehensions you may have, declining such a friendly girl’s request is impossible. Besides, curiosity begets further questions!
“Tell me, have you met Nariko or Ichie?” You ask since they all studied in the same school.
“Edamura? Saionji? Of course, I know my adorable underlings! I’m their role model!” Lydie gets excited talking about your bovines. “Such a clever duo! Praise to me for leaving the world of academics for their holding, while I conquer more impressive records against the rest of the nation.”
“Not to be forward again, but it sounds like you couldn’t match their intellect.” Again, Verity has her reservations.
“I’ll admit, it’d take me twice the effort to match theirs, but I’m a year older, comparing our academic achievements is meaningless — we’re not competing in the same playing field. Unless they decide to enter my realm of expertise, there’s no need for me to brag! <span class="mu-i">Ohohoho~!</span>” Lydie is proud of her own achievements; sports are her thing. But can Lydie truly match Ichie’s insane speed? You doubt it. “Speaking of them, do you know where they are? Both have completely disappeared without leaving a trace. I’m concerned that I might be next! The academy can’t lose more shining stars!”
“W-W-Well, they were at the debate.” Donna recalls.
“They are alive? But are they thriving? Discovering more about themselves in this new environment?” Lydie wants to know.
“I’d say so, yeah.” You nod.
“M-Ms. Edamura will be the future vice-president of the Student Council. She has my vote, arf!” Donna barks without meaning to.
“How marvelous! I’m not the only one who discovered a beautiful world outside the walls of the academy! Perhaps I underestimate my own influence on my underlings, my humbleness is unmatched.” Lydie puts her hands on her hips. “But truly, only the uninspired get complacent with such a narrow view…”
“As for Ichie, she’s doing well enough for herself!” You don’t know how to hype her up, but she’s trying to be a better person.
“Excellent news! Seeing them again is a must. You know them both, I take! You’ve done well by keeping your watchful eye over those two. Aren’t they wonderful?” Lydie wants to see those two again! “I can feel the connection between all of us! There’s no doubt in my mind, you’re the one I seek. The man for the job…”
“I wanted to ask, anything I can help you with?” You offer. Maybe it’s your undisclosed eighth sense, or you’re looking for trouble, but Lydie might need a hand!
“<span class="mu-i">Oh la la~!</span> Yes! Be my boyfriend!” Lydie asks again! Huh, you should’ve expected it. “With you by my side, I’ll prove your worth to the Church – it’s the only way they’ll allow me to return! I beg of you, on my knees if I must! Give me any challenge, and I’ll prove my worth!”
