“…A misunderstanding? Of what? What does the word ‘gay’ even mean?”

I was surprised due to her outburst. And for a moment, I stopped crying.

I blinked and stared at Makoto. Makoto slowly averted her gaze from me.

“I don’t know how you came to think that Lord Edward was in love with me or anything, but… I assure you, he is devoted to you.”

“…That’s a lie. I mean, you and he are…”

“And I’m telling you, you’re misunderstanding everything! I don’t like guys or anything, I like girls!”

Makoto sharply interrupts Rachel. She does so in a panic.

Ahhh, I see. Right now, the one who’s using my body and talking is Rachel.

“You’re… A homosexual? But in this country, that kind of love is forbidden, you know.”

“W-What?! You’re wrong!! I’m a guy!”

“…Huh?”

Rachel blankly blinks again.

Makoto lowered his shoulders as if utterly exhausted from this entire situation.

The surprise that Rachel felt, I could certainly feel as well.

I was also completely surprised that Makoto was actually a guy.

His eyes are large and round. His hair was smooth and silky and slightly brown. His neck was slightly thin, and he didn’t really seem muscular or anything. He was decently slim.

No matter how I look at him, I would think that he’s a girl.

I would have never thought that there would be such a fragile-looking man this age. 

“…A guy?”

“Yes.”

“So… You’re saying that Lord Edward likes guys…?”

“No!! Lord Edward loves you! Can you please stop making me repeat myself, already?!”

It seems like Rachel still had his doubts on Lord Edward.

Though it seems more accurate to say that rather than having doubts, it seemed like Rachel was scared of something.

Originally, Rachel never really wanted to become the crown princess.

And I’m sure she’s scared of that.

“I…”

Rachel was going to say something, but she stopped mid-sentence and left it at that.

Makoto, on the other hand, was perhaps tired of this entire situation. So he didn’t really pry any further.

Rachel, who was completely quiet since then, was tapped on the shoulders very lightly.

“It’s going to be all right, Rachel. Don’t worry about it and just return back to your own body. Lord Edward always puts you first over anything else.”

Perhaps Makoto finally got through to her, but Rachel just slightly nodded in response.
