"I forbid contact with these two in the future"

That's what my father said strictly in front of Yuki and Koya.

At first, I didn't know what they were saying.

But if that word penetrated my head, the next thing that boiled down was suspicion and anger.

"What... what is your father saying?

In response to my confusion, my father puts a wrinkle between his eyebrows and sighs heavily. It's a bitter, painful decision, but when you've already come to a conclusion... that's the attitude.

And not only my father, but even my best friends looked like they were giving up accepting this fact.

"You are the son of the Buddha's Shrine, Shintaro. It is unacceptable for a human being with the correct blood muscles to act with an alumni of the average person. If you find yourself in a deep relationship with the average person or something, it could be a good gossip story. Not to mention putting their bodies in danger."

Is that... what?

Are you saying we shouldn't be together because Shaking Night and Evening Fai aren't privileged classes?

"Now (...)... you should choose a friend, Shintaro"

Father is serious...?

A serious look from my father pierces me enough to dispel such suspicion.

No way, my in-game activities have increased my wealth in order to strengthen the power of the Buddha Shrine... my status has risen too much and my disparities with my best friends have widened...?

Or has the Japanese class society grown stronger?

Which one?

"This time it's special. I asked these two to come to my house confidentially. I had a hard time turning my hand..."

My best friends don't tell my father anything about the situation reluctantly.

"Now that both the British royal family have known each celebrity in the political and financial world, there is a surge of people watching the trends of the Buddhist shrine family. I no longer get enough footlights and attention to deal with my father's hands alone..."

In other words, my trends may be monitored by various forces.

Dad stares at the shaky nights and talks pale.

"Shintaro. If they see you with a man friend, but also a man of the general public, they'll feel bad about the Flaming Royal Family, and most importantly, they don't listen well."

My father speaks wrapped in oblate, but here's the point.

His Royal Highness's fiancée (me) says it's not a good idea to act with the lowlife men...

"And sometimes, when someone turns up who doesn't come with an identity, there's plenty of potential to do them some harm."

Even before, the swinging nights were certainly obsessed with obfuscation and were plucked into fights.

It would be possible for someone in power not to act in such a direct manner to give a little bit to all kinds of best friends.

"But then... this is how we can't meet in secret?

"No, but... you're going to a dormitory-based" Royal Japanese School "? Do not expose others to the risk of weakness more than once. It is possible for my father to stand behind them and put them next to Shintaro (buckwheat)... but I cannot prepare a reason to put them next to Shintaro. There is now no reason (...) for everyone to have enough legitimacy to be convinced at a glance. Understand, Shintaro. This is for you and them."

To avoid my disadvantages and keep my best friends safe.

Naturally Coco screams, even if he is convinced by reason.

"Shaking Night, Yuki, are you guys okay with that...?

If I ask, my best friends will stare back at me with a crying smile.

Seeing that, I could understand that the two were after they had already been rounded up by their father.

"Quick story, not good..."

"I think this is all we have right now..."

My best friends laughed lonely.

Is it because the two of you are in front of your father, or are you behaving in a temperament? Still, the color hidden behind his eyes seemed to dwell on remorse and pity.

I feel the same way.

I've gotten a lot of kindness so far from Shaking Night and Evening Fai. That's the same now, to keep the reputational damage under control so I can stand around in unfamiliar environments... he convinced me.

Then even I think about the safety of the two of us... 'I don't want to leave!' You can't follow the voice of your heart screaming.

……

It's easy to defy Dad's policy here, but then if he asks me if I have any other alternatives... I can't think of any right now. If I don't know the distribution of forces in the country in detail in the first place, there's no way I know how to move to get the best results.

"... Ugh..."

So I can only be selfish at the moment wanting to be with my best friends.

Whether you know that, or you're convinced by your head, your mind still won't catch up.

"... ugh..."

Don't.

Silly.

Even my best friends are enjoying themselves like men, so I have to put up with them.

"... uhh... uhh..."

Even if I told myself so, I would be flooded with tears.

Floods flowing out of my heart.

Polo and just, honestly, falling off.

"Shaking the night, and... Yuki and I won't be able to see each other in real life...?

I can see you in the game.

My heart won't be saved with such a rest.

I've been spending time with these guys since middle school, that stupid, crappy routine... never coming back. The warm routine, which was repeated and believed, as a matter of course, to have the next, abruptly disappeared.

There is no way we can bury that sense of loss.

"I..."

I'd rather prevent the world from changing.

Than saving Japan from the virus pandemic.

I just wanted to be laughing with you guys.

"I want to be with you guys..."

If I tell my best friends with a messed up face...

"Me, too."

"Me too."

We feel the same way.

That's why I trust my best friends...

Stare at the two to obstruct your vision and not lose the tears that moisturize your eyes.

"Hey... will you see me again with you?

We'll see each other in real life, right?

If you ask me that, my best friends nodded forcefully.

"Oh, be sure. Let me be beside you."

"It's not a game. I'm going to meet Shintaro in real life."

It's rare. It's really rare.

The eyeglasses were wet at night.

Yuki's cheeks were certainly wet too.
