[The Hated Hero Is Confused By A Proposal From His Sister]

The Knights of the Academy formed at the request of Principal Abigail.

Our first activity ended with the peaceful result of ‘nothing abnormal’.

It might be disappointing in the sense that we got no leads regarding the culprit behind the incidents, but the fact that we found nothing meant that the students were enjoying school life peacefully. Thinking about it that way, even our activity was by no means in vain.

On the way back.

As Tayte and I were walking together, we chanced upon Mia, the new priestess who had officiated Eureka’s Divine Gift Ceremony.

In【The Rise of the Weakest Holy Swordsman】, she had the role of a sexy older woman who often teased Raul. That same Mia was right now…

“You look really strong, Mr. Walter.”

“W-well, I workout, after all.”

“Oh, I see. It’s no wonder you have such beautiful muscles ♪.”

“Y-you flatter me, hahaha.”

“…Walter?”

“?! T-Teixeira?!”

A romantic comedy was unfolding here.

The information that Raul was now officially dating Eureka had quickly spread throughout the academy. The fact that Raul’s reputation had been completely restored, and the fact that the two were childhood friends who had been in love with each other for so long made our classmates go into full blessing mode for them.

“Hmm… but Mia still acts that way even though things don’t go according to the original storyline, huh.”

At this rate, she may cause unnecessary trouble—as I watched on…

“Sorry I’m late, Mia.”

…a kind-looking man about the same age as Mia called out to her.

“Jeez, what took you so long? As a punishment, you have to treat me today♪.”

“Ng?! …A-all right.”

“Fufu, I was just joking. You always take things so seriously.”

Ah, this person must be her real crush.

Or rather, she intentionally messed with Mr. Walter, didn’t she?

Mia walked away arm in arm with the young man while giving a mischievous side glance at Mr. Walter who was being scolded by Ms. Teixeira.

I suddenly looked at Tayte’s face beside me.

Tayte was in the same party as Mia in the original storyline, but was there a scene where the two had a conversation? How things usually went was Mia would tease Raul, then Raul would respond innocently.

I doubted I’d ever get to see that again in this world.

Being Raul’s harem member or going out with the young man from earlier, only God would know which one was better for Mia.

…But in my opinion, she seemed to be having more fun now than in the original storyline—that was definitely how it looked to me.

◇◇◇

It was when I arrived at the dormitories’ gate while making small talk with Tayte.

“Barrett, Tayte, do you have a minute?”

Someone called out to us. When we turned around, standing there was…

“? Reina?”

…my sister Reina, the student council president.

“It’s rare to see you here,” I said.

“Did something happen?” Tayte asked.

“W-well, sort of…”

Mm?

What happened, I wonder?

It was unusual for her to be so inarticulate.

Since she had gone out of her way to look for us… the matter was likely a rather troublesome one.

“The thing is… uh…”

Tayte and I gulped and waited for Reina’s words.

Then.

“Would you like to go on a double date?!”

She brought up a completely unexpected proposal.
