I’m Not Even an Otome Game Mob Character

come filled with self-loathing.

「I……!?」

When it seemed that I would sink into apologies, both of my cheeks were pinched at full strength.

「Iiidiot.」

Yuuka, verbally abusing me, clung to my neck.

「Taichi’s an iiidiot.」

「Yeah.
I was bad.」

The way she condemned me was like a child., although this time somehow or another, it was funny.
Yuuka cried and trembled, and for a while, tightly clung to me.
While I felt the warmth on my back, I resumed walking again.
Some time elapsed, and at my back, Yuuka raised her head.

「That reminds me, how is Taichi in Kimisei!? Or rather, who is Isaac!!」

She isn’t aware of him, she says, and with a feeling of seeming renewal, Yuuka talks on and on.
She was feeling sad for a while, this person rising to the surface is really robust.
There’s a feeling of her nature simply not needing negative thinking.

「I think I know.
Because it doesn’t seem like I’m a mob, so I’m doing it my way.」

「But, you know Roy-sama, right?」

「That was by accident.」

「Moreover, you’re working at Lydia-sama’s place, too?」

「That was also by chance.」

「Somehow, there’s even more accidents, it seems……」

What is it? Although I can’t see it, I feel a gaze staring at me from behind.
I’m not comfortable with how it feels like she’s feeling around for my stomach.

「You, in that Kimisei……? Where are you?」

「I, Philine Elena von Rozenvein, am a support character who comes out in Roy-sama’s route in A Small Star Only For You -Dein einziger Strenchen-!」

I can grasp she’s using a voice with a self-satisfied look from behind me.
Then, why are you touting the game’s official name and bragging about it like it’s the nickname? I’m not particularly envious, however.
I feel it’s like someone playing a guy in a play towards someone playing a tree.

「Oh, right.
I don’t understand, but I’m glad that you became a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.」

「Right?! I’m cute, right? It feels like I’m royalty, right!?」

It seems like she wants to say it, but because it will become a narcissistic statement, it seems she was enduring it until now.
I was delightfully boasted to.

「Yeah, yeah, you’re cute, you’re cute.
And because of that, is it fine having your beloved Roy-sama as your older brother?」

Her outward appearance has a lot of excitement, but  come to think of it, she’s Leo’s younger sister, so she would be out of the range of romantic interests of the Roy-sama I had heard so much about that I was sick of it.
Because it was the otome game Yuuka played, in any case, it’s regrettable.

「That—」

「Hm?」

「Even now, I really like him, but for Roy-onii-sama, I can’t think of him as something like a capture target.
That is, I don’t feel that sort of feeling……?」

While fumbling around for how to word it, at the appearance of her speaking her own thoughts, I laughed a little.

「Is that so?」

I slightly noticed it.
After all, from the beginning, with how she continuously called him her older brother, not saying it like she did in her past life.
Her older brother now is Leo.
Reconfirming what I had realized, I was relieved.
Yuuka was also properly here.
At the boundary of the downtown residences, I arrive in front of the house with potted plant with a silver plum blossom design, and drop off Yuuka who was on my back.
I face the girl with a dazzlingly blonde ponytail.
This girl also isn’t gentle on my eyes, say my inner thoughts.

「Whose house is this?」

「My house.
You, since if you take the overcoat you’ll stand out, I’ll call Leo here.」

「……has he come here before?」

「Then, keep your stomach tied up.」

Because I think I’ll be scolded and make a grim face, I resolve myself and tell her to be prepared.
I can’t protect her from suffering the consequences.
I put my hand on the doorknob, and before opening the door, look over my shoulder.

「Then, from here, let’s get along, Elena.」

「Let’s get along, Isaac.」

Confirming who each other is in this world, I opened the door.

「Mother, I’m back.
Leo, did you already arrive?」

「Ex… Excuse me for intruding.」

While hiding behind me, Elena waits and looks around my home.

「Welcome home.
He already arrived, with his older brother.」

「Isaac, why did you change the meeting place, is something wrong?」

Behind Leo who had on a brown wig, is Matteus-onii-chan acting as his escort, who Leo said was in the way.

「Ah—…… that’s right.」

Noticing my mother and Leo’s reactions, with how they tilted their heads in confusion, I tore off the cloak of the cause.

「Since you’re in the house, it’s reasonable to take it off.」

「Wa……!?」

「Philly! What are you doing in this place!?」

「Oh my, it’s a cute girl.
Welcome.」

Behind Leo whose eyes were wide open, Matteus-onii-chan turned pale with worry.
Are you okay? Will he not collapse?

When mother notices Elena, she starts to prepare additional tea.
Elena, losing her stealth functionality, after becoming panicked, glared at me who had taken off her overcoat in one go.

「Wait, I also have to prepare my heart!」

「If we wait for that, the sun will go down.
Were you intending to be a spirit behind me until then?」

「But, that…… Isaac, you idiot!」 [T/N: Roy, one hundred percent right now is thinking “Bro, are you flirting with my sister?”]

In our past life, the times she get to make a decision, she was always groaning.
With the feeling of that time, it ended up being overbearing, but on the brink of venting her anger didn’t seem strange.
Which reminds me, when I found her today, she was mumbling by herself.

「Flora……?」

「Ah……」

Leo was looking at her sister in extreme surprise.
Then, Elena remembered she is in her brother’s vision and stiffened.
Because Matteus-onii-chan was also surprised, Elena usually spoke more princess-like, I think.
Until I noticed her true character, she was polite.
When I think it’s better that I don’t interrupt, I watch over the development of these two.
After a bit of silence, Leo was the one who opened his mouth first.

「You’re very open with Isaac.」 [T/N: Countdown to “Are you flirting with my sister?” advances by 1.]

「Eh…… no, yes…… he helped me when I got lost.」

At the smiling Leo, Elena, after making a facial expression that seemed to disagree for a second, smiled back as if to smooth it over.
I think she wasn’t happy about the remark we were on close terms.
For me, also, since with this short time I was repeatedly called an idiot, being called close is upsetting.

「Leo, you shouldn’t leave her alone like this.」

When I lift up the overcoat and show him, Leo forced a smile as if he guessed the details.

「I’m sorry.
This time it was my mistake.
I didn’t take into consideration that someone else would use my things.」

「For using it without permission…… I’m sorry, big brother.
I wanted to go together with you……」

「No, it’s my duty to talk with Philly who wants to go outside.」

「That, I……」

Because it was a little like a loop, I intervene for the two of them, and press on the back of their heads to make them bow.

「It’s fine if both of you did something bad.
Now, since both of you apologized, it’s already done.」

Instantly, the two stop, and one of them smiles.
The other side is a little angry.

「That’s right.
For me, from the next time, I have to be more careful about managing things.」

「Doing things as Isaac says is a cause for offense, however, it can’t be helped.」

「Since everyone is standing while talking, please have some tea.」

Mom puts out the teacups, and invites us with a smile as if to tell us to sit down.
There are only four chairs at the wooden table.
There are four cups at the table.
Because mom is in the flower garden watering the plants, she went to the back.
In front of me is Matteus-onii-chan, and to my side is Elena, and diagonal from me is Leo.
For now, this is an arrangement that doesn’t let radiant things into my vision as much as possible.
Drinking tea and taking a rest, Leo asked Elena something.

「Philly, if you say nothing and sneak out, won’t you worry Terese and the others?」

「Which reminds me, especially if the princess goes missing, I’ll receive a quick letter, but it hasn’t come.」

「I, well…… no, sometimes I want to be alone and I play hide and seek, so Terese and the others surely will search inside the castle……」

「Philly…… you were doing that sort of thing, huh?」

「Princess……」

Matteus’ gaze saw the indescribable facial expression of Leo who is genuinely surprised at the new truth and Elena was at a loss for words.
The Elena who seemed to be deceiving others, again drinks tea.
While drinking tea, I watch over the exchange.
Who is Terese-san, I wonder.

「However, the time you return together with me, won’t they become aware of the story?」

「Yes…… I will voluntarily tell them.」

She’ll say it, Elena says, avoiding the mug to the side, and with a tense face puts both of her hands in front of her.
In the spot on the table where there’s nothing, her hands are concealing something that seems to be there.
Then, magic power begins to collect.
When I read the attribute with the indication of the spirits, I unconsciously mumbled at its rarity.

「Wind and…… light?」

「Fufun, for me, I have two elements, wind and light, you know.」

Elena looks my way boastfully asking how it is.
Why are you boasting to me? While I turn my head away, I neglectfully respond.

「Heeeh, it’s amazing.」

「Wait, why did you look the other way?」

「No, after all, you’re uselessly radiant, is the problem.」

「What was that!?」

「Philly, he also does that to me, so don’t mind it.」 [T/N: Roy too used to this behavior lol]

「To Roy-nii-sama too!? That’s rude, isn’t it!?」

Towards Elena, who was trying to intimidate me like a cat with its hair stood up, Roy smiles, seemingly amused, while chiding her.

「Everyone has something they’re weak with.
Because Philly is my little sister, can she tolerantly accept something small like this?」

「Uuu……」

「No, so Leo, you should get a little angry.」

How can he be amused now? The way Elena flares up is normal, I think.
I’m weak, or in other words, because I think not making eye contact with people is rude, each time I want to apologize but because Leo doesn’t get mad, I miss the timing.
I more or less was able to apologize, but only the first time.
Elena was told by Leo she had stopped concentrating on her magic and focused on it again.
The particles of light gathered together with the light’s shadow coming out.
It became the size of something like a doll, and after a short time took the appearance of a grandmotherly maid.

「Tere—」

「Philine-sama! Where in the world are you hiding this time!?」

When Elena tried to talk, the grandmotherly maid scolded her with a terribly angry look.
Elena unconsciously and reflexively became troubled and took a defensive stance.

「I, I’m sorry…..
um, right now, I’m together with Roy-onii-sama……」

「His Highness, the princes!? His Highness is busy, you know.
No matter how much you love him, please do not cause trouble for him.」

「Terese, I am not troubled, so please do not blame her too much.
Philly will properly return safely.」

「That sort of thing is not the problem! His highness is too sweet towards Philine-sama! I understand the feeling of wanting to dote on the future princess, but……」

When Leo looks in Elena’s direction and puts in a good word, he’s included in the grandmotherly maid, Terese-san’s sermon that began.
At Terese-san’s angry look, Elena’s face became grim and she endured it, and as one would expect, Leo had a forced smile he listening.
I was admiring the science fiction like hologram call right before my eyes.
The wind was for the sound, the light for appearance, it seems.
Certainly, I can’t do it with my not high magical power.
It’s an interesting composite magic.
However, Terese-san’s angry voice is considerably loud.
My house isn’t soundproof, so will it be fine, I wonder.
When I think about if I can form a soundproof membrane in this room with my magical power and look around the room, already a soundproof membrane has been placed.
In addition to the composite magic, another spell had been started side by side.
Terese-san’s sermon finished, and at Elena, who ended the hologram call, I clapped.

「Elena, you’re amazing.」

「At last, you understood my greatness?」

Having been preached to, Elena was dispirited, but when I seriously praised her, she seemed to reemerge, puffing out her chest and happily having flushed cheeks.
As for having thought that being lectured until a little bit ago wasn’t cool, it had been kept in her heart.

「Um, Isaac-kun……」

Matteus-onii-chan, seemingly anxious, started talking ot me.

「Ahh, in addition to Elena being here, I will keep the secret of her having dual elements of light and wind.
Should I seal it with my blood?」

「No, going as so far as a seal of blood…… but, another day, just to be sure, because I will prepare the documents, will you be able to sign them?」

「Yes.
I understand.」

Because my mother doesn’t know anything, when I ask my mother be exempted, Matteus-onii-chan understands.
It’s only a downtown child’s promise, so he’s uneasy, it seems.
Since it’s something like a state secret.

「Which reminds me, Leo, what’s with this overcoat?」

Because the soundproof membrane seems to be working, I ask the thing that has been on my mind.
Then, Leo smiles broadly, seeming happy.

「I made it.
I used the privacy membrane Isaac made before as a reference.
With the way Isaac said it, I also was able to use other elements.」

Imitating the shadow membrane I used, it was a greatly high spec magical tool.
I can’t do something like stick my magical power into something.
With how the overcoat was originally something of Leo’s, furthermore secrecy magic was stuck in there using magical circles, it seems.
There is a need to accumulate dark magic power again in proportion to the effect of the magical tool used, and even with leaving it alone for a long time, slowly the dark magic ended up dispersing which seems to be a demerit.
Just what is this charging equation? It’s a charging method that only a person with high magical power can do.

「It’s interesting how you aren’t noticed by anyone and it isn’t different than usual.
I just ended up unintentionally putting it in an easy to use place.」

Although Leo apologies, his facial expression is smiling.
This seems to be extremely fun.
Elena also understands the feeling, it seems, nodding her head up and down saying 「yes, yes」.
First of all, those guys who are conspicuous are strange, it seems.

「……well, hide it so it won’t be misused.」

「Ahh, I’ll be careful to do that.」

There’s self-awareness that Leo made something greatly terrible.
I think he understands, but just to make sure I purposely say it.
When I see Leo smiling happily, I become a little anxious.

「Isaac-kun……」

「Yes.
There’ll be additional documents, I know.」

I nod towards Matteus-onii-chan who seems more worried than me.
With me signing the documents, it’s only a little, but if his worries decrease, it’s fine.

「Then, let’s return while you’re deceiving Terese.」

「Yes…… I’m sorry for hindering your observation.」

When Leo encourages her to return, Elena, understanding she interrupted her older brother’s inspection, falls into a slump.
Leo pats Elena’s head, tenderly smiling.

「My younger sister, even when you put your hair up, you’re cute.
It’s a good day today when I was able to realize a new charm of Philly’s.」

「Roy-onii-sama……」

I haven’t personally met her, but I fiercely agree with Terese-san’s opinion.
I also think Leo is sweet on his sister.
At their exchange, unconsciously I half-close my eyes.

「Oh my, are you already going back home?」

My mother, returning back from watering the garden, asked as if it was a little unexpected.
If it’s the usual, I lend Leo clothes, and after returning from observing, but this time it’s much earlier.

「Yes.
I’m sorry for coming and heading home immediately.」

「Please excuse our intrusion.」

Leo gives an unchildlike response, and Elena who say that becomes flustered and bowed her head quickly.
Outside of their faces resembling each other, they really are a brother and sister who don’t resemble each other.
Does my mom think the same thing, I wonder, and she sweetly smiles, and falls to one knee to meet Elena’s eyes.

「If it’s okay, eat it with your brothers on the way home.」

「……yes, thank you very much.」

Receiving the baked cookie from my mother, Elena smiles, seeming happy.
Because Elena will stand out if she leaves as she is, again, she puts on the overcoat and also properly puts on the hood.
Because of the stealth functionality, in order not to get separated, she holds hands with Leo.
This time, because the effect of the magic tool is there, Leo says it’s okay to see them off at the front door.
So, I see the three of them off at the entrance.

「See you.」

「Until next time, Isaac.」

「……Isaac.」

Elena points her finger up at me, lightly curling it and calling to me.
Why is a princess calling out to me like a delinquent?
While tilting my head in confusion, when I go down on one knee and come close, my collar is swiftly grabbed and pulled close.

「Gu, you…… what are you doing now?」

「I will only support Roy-onii-sama’s happiness.」

At that declaration said close to my ear, I gaze at her, then smile.
Then, I also whisper back.

「Yep, I also will only support Ojou’s happiness.」

Hearing my declaration, Elena released the hand that was gripping onto my collar.
Being released, when we face each other, I meet the blue eyes hiding their resolution.
I thought that if they have the same resolution as my eyes, it’s fine.

「Hm……?」

Thinking we were doing something strange, when I look up, there was Leo looking surprised and Matteus-onii-chan who had stiffened.
[T/N: “bro are you flirting with my sister”]
What’s wrong, I ask, tilting my head in confusion.
Elena also seems curious.

「Philly……」

Beyond that point, Leo said nothing.
However, with the appearance Matteus-onii-chan came to his senses, Leo tried to continue in asking.

「Have you fallen in love with Isaac-kun!?」

「「 Ha?」」

This time, Elena and I froze up.
What in the world did this seem to become?
I rethink on the situation just now.
If it’s me, it was a delinquent-like threat, but maybe if it’s from another angle, did you think it was a foreigner-like greeting?
When I notice it, something horrifying ran down my back.

「 「That isn’t it!!」」

Elena and I deny it with all of our power.
It even makes Matteus-onii-chan flinch.
Although it was my previous life, if I suspect it’s a relationship with my sister, it’s extremely disagreeable.
Because we say the same thing in unison, it seems to be the same for Elena.
To the very end, it’s extremely exhausting, and I separate from Leo.

「If Elena-chan can come again, it’s fine, you know.」

「Is that so? It’s a miracle you were able to meet her today.」

At my mother’s words, I return my impressions as I thought of them.
I don’t know when the next time they can meet is.
At any rate, the other side is a princess.
With this place of reincarnation, just what in the world is the probability of meeting family from my previous life, I wonder.
Furthermore, with me as a commoner, and the other as a princess.
It’s an incredible miracle.
My sister called me an idiot immediately, however, I was happy we could meet again.
At today’s miracle, I let a smile show.

「Ah.」

Suddenly, I recall what I was forgetting.

「Ojou’s birthday present.」

Today, I had given myself a serious mission.
Because the observation guidance had been canceled, once again I go towards the market street.
