_______________________________________________________________
I [Colin Fou Bartfalt] ―― decided to study abroad when I was in the second year of the school.
My study abroad destination was the Kingdom of Ossias.
They have had little interaction with the Kingdom of Horfalt so far.
Distance ―― Due in part to the location of the two countries, one gets the impression that they are far away from each other.
But the development of shipbuilding technology and navigation techniques.
Furthermore, the Kingdom of Horfalt is rushing to form an alliance with the Kingdom of Ossias.
Therefore, exchanges were taking place between the public and private sectors.
The study abroad story is part of that.
Even I’m not in the line of succession, but I am Leon ―― His Majesty’s biological brother.
It seems that I am in a complicated position politically in many ways and should be helping my brother domestically.
But ―― now I wanted to leave my hometown.
It is painful to look at Noel sister-in-law who is my first love.
And yet, the family and the royal court encourage matchmaking.
No, I know.
My position is important, and to strengthen the connection with powerful nobles and my brother’s subordinates for the future ―― I have to enter into a political marriage.
That’s fine.
I’ve been taken care of by my big brother.
No matter how much my first love is with my brother, I feel indebted to him.
But ―― I have a hard time seeing Noel sister-in-law back home.
That is why I asked the Queen for a favor and requested to study abroad.
That person is usually so competent that some call her Her Majesty the Queen, even though there is my brother.
My brother doesn’t get mad when he hears about it, which is good, but is our country okay with this?
Well, that’s all for the introduction.
“Why is aniki here?”
“Colin !? Why are you here !?”
With his suit jacket off, the second brother and king of the new dynasty of Bartfalt, Kingdom of Horfalt, was a teacher at the Academy of the Ossias Kingdom.
I was also surprised at this.
“Well, sister-in-law ―― No. The Queen has given me permission to study abroad in the Kingdom of Ossias this school year. More importantly, about aniki! Even though you are a king, why are you ―― Muguh!”
“I-Idiot! You’re talking too loud! Don’t ever say I’m king!”
My brother covered my mouth and was alerted to my surroundings.
When I thought he had not been in the public eye for a while, I did not expect him to be in the Kingdom of Ossias.
I mean, really, what are you doing here!?
My brother makes sure no one is there and then explains the situation to me.
“Colin, actually I ―― become a teacher here to save the world.”
Do they think anything will pass if you put on a serious face?
My brother looked so serious about it.
“Are you kidding me? If you’re joking, tell me something funnier.”
My brother is shocked.
“Colin go off the rails! I-Is this what they called a rebellious period?”
“No, you’re wrong”
He has always been kind to the family――not.
He was strict with his sisters. Is he harsh? Is he lenient because he also forgave sister Jenna for trying to kill him by setting off a bomb?
Anyway, he is a sweetheart to his family.
Also, he doesn’t realize he ended my first love.
――It’s really painful.
“Aniki, what are you really doing in this country? Why should aniki have to do the legwork?”
nOνEℓn(E)Xт
“I have a lot of reasons. But yeah――If you’re here, I could use some help.”
“Help?”
When my brother gets a mysterious look on his face, he asks me for advice.
“I’m actually in a bit of trouble. Actually, there is kid who has a fated partner, and I’ve taken a liking to them.”
――It wasn’t my big brother.
Is this guy possibly having an affair in a foreign country?
How did Noel sister-in-law also fall in love with such a person?
I really want to cry.
“Aniki, I think the Queen would be seriously angry at any more unfaithfulness.”
“You’re wrong! I never laid a hand on them! It’s just that lately it’s been a little――”
As I was about to listen to my impatient brother’s excuses, we heard a voice from across the hallway.
“Ah, here you are. Sensei, about the other day.”
The male student was slender.
Is it called a cute type?
This school is a boys’ school and only boys are allowed, so of course they are men.
I thought he looked like a girl, but there is no such thing as a girl in a place like this.
But when the boy came ―― my brother’s eyes were swimming.
“Well, look, it’s that! Yes, a kid I know, like my brother, just came to study abroad!”
“Eh? Aniki, what are you――”
“I beg you, please, just play along here!”
It was a serious brother’s request, so I agreed to play along ―― and the boy who approached us looked at me.
“It looks like a real brother. You two look exactly alike.”
Because we are brothers.
My brother deliberately averted his gaze.
“People often tell me that. He’s a distant relative.”
The male student tilts his head.
The gesture looks like a girl no matter what ―― But I know that there are some guys like this.
“Is that so?”
“Y-Yeah! That being said, could you give Colin a tour of the academy?”
“Do you want me to show him around!?”
The way the child looks at my brother is somewhat ―― passionate.
And then I realized.
Perhaps the reason why my brother is in trouble is because he was liked by the same sex?
Come to think of it, I heard that my brother is secretly very popular with the men.
Was it Count Mottley?
That man is also a supporter of my brother and has stated publicly that he owes him a favor.
And by popular ―― It means romantically as well.
I remembered that my brother is liked by men.
There is a man who says he really likes my brother in a romantic sense.
Is his popularity still alive and well in other countries? I didn’t think so.
He must be in trouble because he is favored by a slender male student.
I guess I have a twisted personality that thinks it’s kind of nice.
But the only one who twisted worse than me was my brother.
“Colin! Get this kid to show you around――and.”
Aniki whispering to me.
“They are a good kid. You’ll like them.”
“――Eh?”
“Ah, I just remembered something! You two, get along!”
I watched my brother run off and I was left alone with him.
The boy is confused.
I’m also confused.
Because ―― my brother recommended a guy to me.
“You’re lying, right, Anikiii~!?”
Is this my punishment for falling in love with Noel sister-in-law?
I mean, sure, I’m keeping my distance from love, but I’m not running to a man as an equal.
What are you thinking, aniki!?
