On the surface, his smile was pleasant and warm, but his eyes betrayed something different.

Why do I get the funny feeling he had that line prepared? This whole mess was beginning to look unmistakably premeditated. I don’t remember doing anything to piss him off, though...

In the end, no one had anything to gain from Edward and me getting soaked in the fountain, but at least the prospect of Lilia being excited to see an SS-tier-ultra-rare hair-down Sir Burton made up for the inconvenience. I’d been meaning to treat her to a rare glimpse of me with my hair down eventually, so this actually ended up working out all right.

Still, there was no way I was going to class looking like a drowned rat. So, I bid Lilia goodbye and headed off to meet Christopher so I could borrow his sportswear uniform—what students normally wore for swordsmanship classes. And, for some reason, it seemed Edward had decided to tag along.

“Lizzie,” he said. “You don’t have a change of clothes at school, do you? You can borrow my sportswear, if you like.”

“That’s all right. I’m sure you’ll need the change of clothes too. I’ll just borrow some from my brother.”

“Oh, it’s no trouble. I have an extra set.”

Edward snapped his fingers, and a guard came running over with a towel and a pair of sportswear for me. I noticed it was a different guard than the one who usually summoned me to Edward’s office.

Impressive foresight, having an extra pair of sportswear on hand. Is royalty always this well-prepared?

I would’ve been happy with just a change of shirt and jacket—maybe even a pair of shoes, if I was really lucky—but Edward had probably been soaked down to his underwear. I couldn’t help but wonder if he’d prepared a change of clothes for that too.

Women’s underwear in this world was basically the same as modern-day Japanese underwear (since it was based on an otome game), but I had no idea what the situation was for men. Surely they didn’t wear loincloths...right? But it was hard to imagine everyone walking around in expensive boxers. For a brief moment, I was struck with the intrusive thought that maybe they all went commando. I quickly banished the thought.

Anyway, if Edward was going to offer me a change of clothes, far be it from me to say no.

“Oh... Okay. Thanks,” I said.

“Think nothing of it. You can stop by my office over the weekend to return it.”

I didn’t reply. This was all starting to feel very premeditated indeed. Did you do all this just to give me a reason to visit you? I wondered.

Pissed off at the deception, I took the towel his guard had given me and aggressively rubbed his hair dry.

“You’re more soaked than I am,” I said.

“I can dry my hair myself, thank you...”

“We wouldn’t want you to catch a cold, would we?”

“Stop being so rough with it! It’s going to get tangled!”

Only once his silver hair had reached a satisfying level of unkemptness did I lay off.
