Chapter 30
Finally, Noran returned, so I quickly laid out the futon, went inside, and decided to think a solution as much as I could .
I believe that a relaxed posture leaves the mind free and carries thoughts smoothly .
The first agenda is to see if Ellie is an other-world person like me .
Well, I think Ellie is definitely an other-world person .
So who is Ellie?
Age above 16 years old . If he’s also from another world, he would be able to speak without problems at one year old . So he’s now over 17 years old .
The fact that Noran told me that only the king of this country knows who is Ellie, means that it’s highly likely that Ellie is not from the neighboring country but a person of this country .
And this is just my guess, but perhaps Ellie is in a position to see both me and the characters of the game . Because there is no reason why he wouldn’t want to see the result of the events of his prophecy . He will want to see the progress .
If we add to this the expectation that Ellie is probably an aristocrat because if not, there’s not possibilities of him seeing the king, so thinking that, the range of people who can be Ellie have narrowed down at once . In the first place, nobles can’t usually go out here and there without escorts, and coming to see me is often impossible . Therefore, if he wants to see the results of his prophecy, he should have to come, and when a nobleman comes, it’s immediately obvious that he is a nobleman .
Yeah, so what is the answer to that?
……There are only Nika and Pastor Jack as possible options for being Ellie .
However, I think Jack hadn’t seen much of me before I became a commoner, and I don’t think he has anything to do with Gakuen, the game stage of Lady Rose .
On the other hand, if it is Niksama, I feel that everything is explained .
His age is three years older than me, and at the time when Ellie made the prophecy, he was about three years old because he’s an other-world person, so there was no problem in his speaking capabilities, and since he was a genius from the beginning, that explains why he acts more mature than his age .
His attachment to me is explained because I’m the heroine of the game .
Perhaps he wanted to monitor me in that sense as well because he often comes to meet me and acts out of the scenario .
Niksama has a position where he can often see Lili-chan too .
Also, he’s my fiancee’s brother, that could be used as an excuse to meet Jed and the other characters .
…… Well, I can’t help but think of it . No! wait, wait!! Don’t assume anything! Perhaps I have missed something .
…… .
As I was rethinking everything, trying to not leave anything out… while looking around in the room, I suddenly saw the calendar .
It’s still my first day off . Will I be able to learn to make bread in the next 6 days? I bought all the ingredients, but there is no pot at home .
If I have money to buy a kettle, I’ll choose to save it anyway and look for a workaround .
Ah, yes, it’s Nika’s birthday coming up soon . He hasn’t come recently, but he’ll come again, maybe . I have to prepare something for his birthday…
“… wait, birthday?”
That’s right, the story changes with his birthday .

I don’t know who Ellie made the prophecy for, but at his 16th birthday, I was almost 1 year old, and in the first place, no one said that the baby of his prophecy was just born or how much later would be born .
Oh, the range has expanded . Sixteen years old is also in range . If one year old is included in the range of possibilities, then 15 years old is now in the range…
“All the target characters are already suspicious…”
I’m weak to feelings… I have never doubted that Lili could be an other-world character . I had a lot of blind spots . For the first time, she also seems suspicious .
…At this point, there are several places where love target characters seemed suspicious .
I haven’t met his Highness Seth since breaking my engagement with him, and I haven’t seen any suspicious points in him since I was a child .
We had only normal conversations at school and I met him only one time right after I left home . So he’s not suspicious .
Let’s examine Nika’s possibility again… He strangely embraced me before .
In the first place, it is strange that a great person like Nika came to see me at a weekly pace as a watchdog .
Ordinarily, a lower rank soldier should be the one to keep watch . His Majesty wouldn’t normally let someone like Nika do that .
Next is Jed . He suddenly visited, even though I was not on good terms with him .
If the reason was to make fun of me… It could be said that his yandere switch was turned on too abruptly .
Also, he didn’t make fun of me at the end .
I want to think Jed is different because he has nothing to do with Lili, and someone who knows the game will be checking all characters, but the mystery of that one visit is still creating doubts in me .

Then is Mel-chan . I trust him as a friend, but if I think about his position… it’s perfect for watching over people .
He holds many secrets and is good at information warfare .
I talked freely about my worries and thoughts, and asked questions to him, on the assumption that he isn’t someone who knows the game .
If all his reactions and answers were just him acting it out…
Noran is suspicious . . yes . Although he’s a neighboring country’s prince, it is possible that the remark that the king of this country knows Ellie’s face is a lie in the first place .
The reason for telling me the name of Ellie might be to play with me like this .
Even though we didn’t even go to the same school at the end, differing from the game-scenario, he now has more strange feelings towards me than the attention given to Felicia as the heroine in the game .
Otherwise, he wouldn’t bother to invite me to create a war together with him .
Surely the name of Lily was also given, and there is no doubt that there is some connection with her .
Zero will follow Noran and speak everything he indicates, because it is a supreme principle for him Noran’s orders .
On the other hand, I don’t think that Zero is an other-world person because Noran would have moved towards his interest if that would be real .
…I think Lily is different .
Because she had so few opportunities to get in touch with me, Lily and I never talked to each other at all .
I haven’t seen her yet .
And if Lily is an other-world person, I’m in the heroine’s position, so I think we’ll usually get a little more contact than now .
Above all, if she is an other-world person, I don’t understand why to bully me in the first place .

After all, she knew that there was a death sentence for her at the end of that path, in which she would become a commoner and dropped into my current position .
No, maybe Lily-chan wanted to be a commoner like me, but I’m glad if that the case, that I clearly refused to follow the scenario .
Even if I was taken back in time, even if I did not notice that she was an other-world person, she would have immediately noticed that my actions were an irregular bug in the game, and if she noticed it, she would not have let me through with it .
I’m afraid, if she was looking at everything from the beginning and knew that I was doing everything to become a commoner, then she would concentrate on setting up a turbulent trap… As a person who knows the game, won’t she usually notice that I act like a commoner? I’m not good at acting but I had to since the time when I became conscious that this was a game .
…Who is Ellie? This is no longer a maiden game, but a detective game .
I mean, no matter who Ellie is, the biggest problem is what to do next… Ah, it’s bad . I’m getting sleepy .
Noran was late in talking about this… The time I left home was almost at the same time that Ellie appeared, right?
Since I came to this world, I have been living a regular life as a daughter of the Duke, and that’s why now… I am in a state where I cannot stay up late . …I wonder if it’s fine to just sleep like this .
But I must solve this… .
Well, yeah, what does Ellie do now… I wonder if he’ll try to bring Lily into contact with me .
However, considering the gap between myself and Lily-chan now, it’s a difficult task to make us meet…
It is impossible . It’s no good anymore, it seems that I’m too sleepy and my thoughts are muddled . Let’s sleep
I’ll be off tomorrow anyway . I should think again tomorrow . Good night .
