"Frey, you there?"

"...Kania, go open the door."

"...Yes."

When the promised weekend came, Isolet showed up at my dormitory with blazing eyes.

For reference, the past few days have been normal with nothing special.

For the most part, the Saintess who received the blessing which allows her to bend any superhuman existence in half is constantly trying to kidnap me to the cathedral and because of that she keeps triggering the 'False Evil's Intuition' skill in vain. As a result, I'm forced to live every waking moment trembling in anxiety.

I shuddered in fear when I heard Irina frequently reciting the chant of the ultimate curse she created in the previous timeline.

I also broke out in a cold sweat when the Princess would occasionally glance at me with a cold smile as I tried to greet her back with a foolish grin of my own.

It has become part of my routine to play with the fluffy cat doll after infusing my life force into Kania. I keep trying to take it away from Kania, who recently started sleeping with the doll in her arms. However, I got scared when she tossed and turned around...

Now that I think about it, her behavior in the past few days has been quite odd.

However, she is alive, and that's all that matters, right?

"Welcome, Lady Isolet."

"Kania? Why are you..."

"I am currently living in this room as the Young Master's attendant."

Isolet was surprised to see Kania, who opened the door for her on my behalf, and once Kania's explanation was over, Isolet glared at me, then opened her mouth.

"Frey, are you out of your mind...?"

"...What?"

"To bring Kania... a woman... in your room... such immorality...!"

Isolet exclaimed, her voice trembling with anger and a bright red blush appeared on her face.

Yes, Isolet is quite vulnerable to such situations.

Having only trained in the Bywalker family, she knows nothing other than martial arts and is a pure maiden who had no prior romantic experience because of her characteristic upright personality, and unapproachable cold atmosphere.

Isolet herself knows she is already at marriageable age, so whenever such such a topic comes up, she reacts sensitively without even realizing.

"...Kids these days are fast, sister."

"Eiii...!"

"Why? Sister, why don't you try it at least once before it's too late? You don't want to become an old maid, right?"

".........!"

Her face was blushing even more at my words, but when she heard the words 'old maid' she stood there frozen stiff.

'...Don't tell me she died because of a heart attack?'

I quickly used my inspect skill in panic to check her status window, then soon breathed a sigh of relief.
