I Appear to have been Reincarnated as a Love Interest in an Otome Game

Editor: ArymTheThird

Guess Ill have to hold back a lot of things until we graduate For Angelicas sake, Ill do my best for three more years!

We are going to wait three more years? I wouldnt mind if we, like my brother, married in two years, matching Kyle-samas graduation.

Even though I held back vomiting blood and declared my determination, Angelica said so, seducing me

She looked up at me with her lips slightly pouting in a sulky way. This would be a problem if it were calculated, but in Angelicas case, its 100% natural. As proof, when I poked her pursed lips saying they are pointed, she quickly pressed down on them with both her hands and stood up with a bright red face, making a loud noise.

T-To have shown you such an u-unpleasant sight! I-I beg your pardon!

Hmmm? It was adorable; theres nothing rude about it.

To calm Angelica, who was acting like someone suspicious, I smiled gently and coaxed her to sit down in a chair. And, while fidgeting, she slowly sat down, shyly letting her gaze fall to her feet.

Angelica, youre just too cute!

Im having a hard time holding myself together!

All I could do to resist the urge to hug and drag her to the bed was averting my gaze, in a way she wouldnt notice, and clench my fist.

To pull my thoughts away and distract myself from the pink-colored world, I thought about the role of the academy in this worlds aristocratic society.

In this country, it was common for women to drop out of the academy since the position and circumstances of their fiancee determine the timing of the marriage.

An aristocrat in this country is of marriageable age from the time they are 18 for men and 14 for women. The difference in age stems from the necessity for men to graduate from school.

For women, its a very fluffy definition of its desirable to graduate from the academy, so, in many homes, girls are not allowed to attend school because they are low-ranking noble children. And when men are older, they often want to get married at the same time they graduate from school, so women inevitably have to drop out.

Angelica probably thinks that this will be the case for Lewis and Jessica as well. Im not sure whats really going on since Louis himself hasnt reported anything yet, but I think he wants to get married soon and make Jessica his own, both in name and reality.

Even I want to marry Angelica as soon as possible and enjoy this and that to my hearts content without being judged by anyone.

But, for Angelica, the fact that shes going to be a Queen is more important than the fact that shes going to be my wife. Its just of that much importance. So, if possible, I want her to graduate

In any world noisy people who cant just mind their own business exist. And the chance that those kinds of people will see dropping out of school as a stain on your reputation is high.

They ignore the common sense of the aristocracy and spread malicious rumors like She got married to hide the fact that she couldnt follow the curriculum at school. or Her conduct was poor, and she didnt know when she would get pregnant, so she had to get married in a hurry.

In fact, its so bad that some couples break up because of the rumors spread around in high society.

Since women are slandered way more severely than men in cases of marriage after dropping out of school, the only ones receiving lasting damage are also them. Even if a couple separates, the man involved will be able to remarry without much of a problem after some time passes, his ex-partner, however, cant hope for such a thing.

Therefore, nowadays, when a man wishes a woman to drop out of school to marry, making a contract, stating he will be severely punished should he divorce her for reasons related to it, became more widespread.

As a result, it has become common practice for men to wait until a woman graduates or, if they are already engaged before they enter the school, to have her stay at home with a private tutor to help her learn as much as she would at the school instead.

For Angelica and Jessica, however, it would be more useful to have them graduate from the academy, than learn at home with a tutor, since they are engaged to people with special circumstances.

In Jessicas case, the breakup of her and Roberts engagement meant that her original reason for enrolling in the school was gone.

But Angelica is different.

If possible, it would be better to have her properly graduate from the academy. Since the school itself is a part of the system and politics of this country, having Angelica, who will be the Queen, graduate, is seen as a matter of course. Who knows what those noisy idiots would say should she drop out

And I dont want my lovely, lovely, lovely Queen to be belittled and slandered by those idiots, either This is unforgivable. I will suppress my desires for another three years or so.

Since Louis and Jessica are going to be my aides and assistants, I think it would be better for Jessica to graduate from the academy too.

In order to convince Angelica, who adorably wants to get married soon, I gently took her hand and matched my gaze with hers.

Hey, AngelicaEven I can wait for a year or so until you graduate, you know? Besides, thinking about the future, I think its better for you to graduate from the academy. I will tell Louis that the same goes for Jessica, as well. So, I dont think she will be dropping out of school halfway through.

Is Kyle-sama okay with not being able to see me freely for a year?

Angelica seems a little unhappy with my words.

Even last year, when I was at the school, and Angelica hadnt enrolled yet, I couldnt see her freely, and I didnt do anything about it. But our relationship has changed from last year.

Weve become lovers, see each other every day, and have a sweet time, so I guess she is worried about having a long physical distance between us.

And that means that Angelica loves me that much.

How cute is my angel!

I want to marry you as soon as possible too, and not being able to see you every day will be painful for me, but I can put up with as much as I need to, if its for your benefit. And so you dont get anxious, even if you dont see me every day, Im going to put my feelings into words as much as possible, okay? Now, will you put up with me for three more years with just hugs and kisses?

With a sweet cheeked smile reserved for Angelica, I told her so gently, and she gave a small nod with a happy but embarrassed look on her face.

I managed to get her to agree with me, so, after I gave Daniel a smug look, I pulled Angelicas hand and led her up on the bed to hug her.

And following my words, from the top of her head to her face, I thoroughly enjoyed her expressions as I kissed her everywhere.

Spending time with her like this is a real treasure!

I thought with all my heart that I would like to cherish this peaceful time with her forever.
