The random characters in the dating sim world are a bit bad.

This time, Lyon did not refute it, but accepted it calmly.

The next day.

afternoon.

Lyon opened his eyes and saw almost half of the sky.

"What am I doing?"

"Leon-san, you're awake. Did you sleep well?"

Olivia looked down at the languid Leon, and the sky was now completely obscured.

"Olivia, what's wrong with you...?"

"Leon-san! I already told you to call me Livia. If you do that again, I'll get angry!"

Olivia playfully stroked Leon's cheek, the smooth touch giving Leon immense pleasure.

"Foolish brother!"

A roar came, and Leon realized that Olivia, who was giving him a lap pillow, had disappeared. In her place was the ceiling, and Gina walked in!

"Gina! Why the hell are you yelling so loudly! My lap pillow, waaaaah!"

Leon yelled at Gina, whose face was filled with anxiety, then looked sadly out the window.

He was already ready to change his lap pillow position!

"Hey! You silly brother! How can you still be sleeping? Something really bad happened to you first graders!"

"Oh, and then?"

Faced with Gina's anxiety, Leon simply replied listlessly.

Gina sighed helplessly at Leon's expression and then explained what had happened.

"There's a rumor that the duke's daughter in your first year instructed the girls to bully Mariette. The semester is almost over, so don't do anything reckless."

Leon was slightly touched to see that Gina had even learned to care about him.

“I know. But Miss Angelica would never do that.”

"Of course, my foolish brother. But with her high status, she doesn't even need to say a word. There will be no shortage of people around her who will take the initiative to curry favor with her."

Gina nodded in agreement with Leon.

"If it wasn't Angelica's instruction, why is it related to her?"

“Those girls were part of her clique, and as the leader, she had to take responsibility.”

"Oh, I see! But that's really unfair."

"My foolish brother, what are you thinking? This world is inherently unfair. And remember this: don't cause any trouble before the holidays. If everything goes smoothly, His Highness the Crown Prince will inherit the throne directly! If you gain his favor, everything will be smooth sailing from now on. On the other hand, if you make him dislike you, you're finished!"

“Gina, my family are border barons. This kind of thing has absolutely nothing to do with us. You should go and tell your fiancé. Also, remember to hold the door open for me.”

Leon yawned and pulled the covers over himself.

This scene stunned Gina, and after reminding her not to embarrass herself at the school party, she transformed and went outside.

Leon didn't care about parties or anything like that; all he wanted to do right now was dream about Olivia's lap pillow!

Volume 2 School Life: Chapter 18 I Don't Want to Get Married!

After the first semester's tests, the final stage began.

Goodbye school year party!

An event that most nobles would attend in their finest attire, featuring a wide variety of delicious food and fair-skinned...

"Leon! This one definitely has a D!"

Beside him, Raymond, who had already moved on from his heartbreak, had a bright look in his eyes as he scanned the white landscape around him.

After all, girls wearing open-front dresses will naturally and proudly show off their stunning figures, and will feel smug because of the boys' gazes.

See, now you know how charming I am! Hurry up and come lick my boots, try to please me!

Daniel also looked just as sleazy as Raymond.

Lyon had originally planned to take a good look at the hard-won perks, but to avoid Olivia's gaze, he could only focus on the food for the time being.

"Hey! Leon, are you really not coming with us?"

Daniel walked up to Lyon and asked him again.

"No, you two should just do your best. I have plans with Olivia tonight."

Listening to Leon's explanation, the two only showed their contempt and disdain, then turned and left to start looking for someone to marry.

Lyon looked at the two men, who looked like defeated dogs, and smiled smugly.

"Leon!"

Olivia's voice came from behind him. Leon turned around and saw Olivia wearing a JK school uniform, her face beaming with joy and happiness, her cheeks flushed slightly under the light.

“Olivia, over here. All this stuff at the party is delicious, some of it we don’t usually get to eat, and most importantly…”

"It's free! Right, Lyon?"

Olivia picked up where Leon left off, speaking somewhat playfully. This made Leon a little shy, and he handed Olivia the plate that had been prepared on the table. It was covered with Olivia's favorite foods.

"Thank you, Leon. You're so kind."

Olivia naturally accepted the food Leon offered and ate it in small bites, completely opposite to Leon's hearty eating.

Olivia sighed as she looked at the people dressed up for the school party.

"There are so many people at the school party. And everyone is wearing formal attire, they look so good."

“Olivia, those dresses are very expensive. And I think Olivia looks beautiful in her uniform.”

After taking a sip of tea and swallowing the meat in his mouth, Lyon spoke with a sincere expression.

"Moreover, the school party is held on such a large scale to demonstrate the kingdom's strength to everyone and to put those ill-intentioned guys at ease."

Leon explained the meaning of the school party to Olivia, who looked at him with admiration.

This pleased Leon greatly.

The minimum price for a formal dress made in the capital is two thousand tias. If you want something more luxurious and uses more exquisite materials, the cost can reach tens or even hundreds of thousands of tias.

Many students, like Lyon and Olivia, attended the party simply in their school uniforms. However, most people, especially the girls, opted for custom-made dresses.

At the center of the party, Crown Prince Julius walked over to Marie, who was not wearing a dress, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Marie, why didn't you wear a dress?"

"Well, I wasn't prepared for that."

Marielle spoke in a girlish manner, and the men beside her immediately expressed their regret, saying, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Seeing Mary's restrained posture, Zeke smiled and eased the tension.

"Wearing a uniform feels much more refreshing than a luxurious dress. Marie, would you like to get a dress made with me next time? I know a really good shop in the capital."

"Well, that's troublesome."

Marielle accepted the offer with a slightly embarrassed expression, but inside she was overjoyed.

Then Greg and the others came up to talk to Maria, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation.

There are many examples of men finding marriage partners by striking up conversations with women at parties.

Daniel and Raymond had asked Leon if he wanted to come along for that very reason, but Leon, who had a bad reputation among the girls at the academy and had already developed feelings for them, unsurprisingly refused.

After searching the venue, Daniel and Raymond finally locked onto their target.

Three girls dressed as gifts, accompanied by demi-human slaves!

"Raymond, let's go!"

"Yes, Daniel!"

The two, brimming with homoerotic tension, launched an attack on the trio, but before they could even make their move, someone else had already beaten them to it, however...

"Huh? What are you talking about? Take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror first."

"The baron's family on the border?"

"I'd at least want someone from a viscount's family. You border barons shouldn't even dream about it!"

"It's so frustrating! It's obvious how shallow guys who desperately propose are."

"Men should act more relaxed and confident."

“You are far inferior to His Highness the Crown Prince.”

The trio mocked, and the demi-human slaves behind them also showed contemptuous looks!

At the dinner table, Olivia, who witnessed this scene, gently touched Lyon with her hand.

“Lyon! Daniel and the others…”

Following Olivia's gaze, Leon spotted the trio preparing to order the demi-human slaves to attack.

"I'm sorry, Olivia."

After finishing his tea in one gulp, Leon was about to run over, but Olivia stopped him.

Her fair fingers gently wiped away the residue from the corner of Leon's mouth, and then, quite unexpectedly, touched the corner of his lips again.

"Thanks, Olivia."

When Lyon's voice came, Olivia simply lowered her head and softly hummed in response.

Why did I do that just now? It felt so strange...

One of the girls in the trio twitched her chin slightly, and then the demi-human slave behind her came in front of the two of them, clenched her fist, and prepared to strike.

Bang!

Before the fists could even reach Daniel and Raymond, they were stopped by hand.

"Hey! Don't go too far! Why don't you just refuse directly? Or do you want to practice some combat skills?"

Leon's unceremonious voice rang out as he tightly gripped the demi-human slave's hand and pushed him away.

The trio snorted and left after seeing Leon appear.

"Leon, thanks."

Daniel and Raymond thanked Lyon and then walked outside.

This time, she doesn't look like a loser; she looks like a drowned rat!

Watching his friend leave, Leon waved to Olivia and followed her.

Stepping outside, Raymond gazed at the adorned sky and mused on it.

"Why is getting married so difficult? I don't want to get married!!!"

Volume Two: School Life: Chapter Nineteen - Either Erupt in Silence or Die in Silence

"I don't want to get married!!!"

Hearing Raymond's words, Leon and Daniel immediately distanced themselves and asked cautiously, "Raymond, are you no longer interested in girls?"

“Lyon, Daniel! I feel like I really hate these girls in the advanced classes right now! They're all so, so…”

Lyon and Daniel breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Raymond's answer that he was only not interested in the girls in the advanced classes, and went over to comfort him.

Because some boys in the academy choose to be gay because they dislike girls.

"Leon, you'll be eligible for the title of Baron after you graduate. What will you do then?"

After venting his frustrations, Raymond posed a question to Leon.

Both Lyon, who becomes a baron after graduation, and Raymond, the baron's heir, are required to marry women of equal status.

“Raymond, I’m not going to marry one of those obnoxious guys. And don’t forget we’re border lords!”

Lyon didn't say it explicitly, but the two border lords understood.
