Chapter 224.1. Sena’s Boyfriend Won

-Miu’s POV-
After the match between Aguni Masatoshi and Kanna Shin, Sena’s boyfriend, came to an end, Mii-chan clapped her hands, her ice-blue eyes sparkling brightly.
“That was amazing! It was so impressive. Maybe I should make caramel-flavored popcorn next time.”
Mii-chan praised Sena’s victorious boyfriend, mentioning that popcorn with only salt flavor would get boring.
“Haha, Mii-sama got so absorbed that you threw away the popcorn.”
As Yamiyo chuckled with a hand covering her mouth, the innocent Mii-chan nodded excitedly.
“Yeah! I was holding it while cheering, and then it flew away!”
Cheering with all her might while holding the victory sign and the popcorn, she accidentally sent it flying. Mii-chan felt regretful for being wasteful.
“It flew quite far. Truly impressive, Mii-sama. I managed to see it, but it almost slipped by.”
“Guess it happens often when you’re spectating!”
“Yes, it’s common for a popcorn kernel to fly away while spectating.”
Yamiyo smiled meaningfully. She looked around, but no one seemed to notice. Seina also appeared oblivious, making it quite impressive that Yamaya caught on.
“Indeed. I got so caught up that I might have accidentally used [Stone Fire] when waving my arm.”
“Uh-huh, it was an unfortunate accident. But taking a popcorn hit to the temple and not losing balance is something to be proud of.”
Since no one protested, they decided it was a common occurrence and resolved the matter.
A bad person? Not at all. Mii-chan was always a good girl, doing only good things. She simply dropped the popcorn.
“But man, Aguni Masatoshi-kun is strong!”
“Indeed, you’re right. Even though Shin showed an opening, being able to deliver such a series of powerful attacks is because he’s him. For an ordinary magician, landing just one attack would be considered good enough.”
Yamiyo praised Masatoshi’s victory, and Mii-chan agreed. To win with just that small opening showed that he’s an impressive man.
Why didn’t he appear in the original story? He must be a character who appeared in a volume that Mii-chan hasn’t read yet, where they delve into Sena’s past.
Sena would talk to Shin with a solemn expression.
“I once had a very close male friend. I liked him, but he passed away.”
It would be an emotional event that delves deep into Sena’s character.
Well, he’s still alive. Winning against Shin probably means he’s on the route where he won’t die.
“Se-chan, it’s great that your boyfriend won! Masa is Katsu… hahaha.”
I laughed at what a nice name it was. It’s inevitable to find it funny. His name was bound to be teased.
“Yes! I never thought Masatoshi-san would win. But I was praying for it. And, should we try a half-and-half, salt and caramel flavor next time?”
Sena’s face lit up as she joined her hands in front of her chest, beaming with joy.
She must have been very happy. Her cheeks were bright red, and she was brimming with excitement.
Well, Shin is the protagonist, so he rarely experiences defeat events. In the game, there were template events where he lost to overwhelmingly powerful opponents and got overlooked, but there’s no event where he loses a match like this.
By the way, even in the defeat event, the one who wins is Mii-chan’s previous life, but for some reason, after her player character wins, it changes to the event where she loses. 
Heh, powerful! to his knees in defeat.
The airy player can’t change their fate.
“Nishishi. Now Kanna Shin-kun and Seina-chan have become friends~”
“Yes. Now we can visit each other anytime. I’m so happy. I want to discuss with Masatoshi-san when to visit.”
As Tamamo laughed, Sena blushed with excitement.
That’s great. My circle of friends has grown bigger.
I’m sure they’ll be able to visit Kanna Dukedom and intrude on places where it’d be bad to be seen or engage with suspicious characters.
Therefore, Duke Kanna will have to be quite cautious about his actions from now on.
The cunning Duke Kanna will still move secretly, but he’s left a small opening.
Well done, Sena-chan. I’m as happy as if it were my achievement.
When Nan-chan reached into Mii-chan’s popcorn cup, Mii-chan handed it all over and looked back at the match venue.
Shin slowly stood up and briefly showed a fierce expression, but it quickly turned into a gentle smile as he reached out his hand to Masatoshi.
“I got done in. I never expected such a method. It’s my loss, and I’ll accept it gracefully.”
“Haha, that’s right! But Shin, you were quite strong too. I’m inferior to you, but you were pretty strong.”
While shaking hands with Shin, Masatoshi acted cocky and looked down on him.
That expression is rare for Shin. He’s not supposed to make that face, but he must be losing his composure.
“Ahahaha, look, Mii-chan! Did you see Shin-san’s face? He looked like this. Like this. It’s the first time I’ve seen him like this!”
The main heroine laughed uproariously beside me.
Isn’t he Sena’s future lover? Their relationship is too hostile.
