I Decided to Not Compete and Quietly Create Dolls Instead

Elstat Rozerem.

One of the capture targets in Rune Knight Concert.

With sharp eyes and neat features, he somehow has a hard to approach air about him.

Being an unrestrained loner wolf, he himself was also in the magic academy but he didnt go to class much.

If you wonder what the heck he was doing, then the answer is that he goes to the arena on a daily basis.

The prodigy son of the duke who neglected school due to getting addicted to betting matches. its not like he is someone like that. Well, rather it would be better if he were like that.

That is because Elstat had been hiding his identity and participating in the matches.

Wearing a wolf-like helmet over the upper part of his face or so in the past story, was rather a cool figure to see. I quite love it. I love it to the point that I made the same wolf helmet. My second brother was an otaku so he was very happy when I gave him that. It also received and created a lot of AA in the net. (TL: no idea what this AA is.)

Well, more importantly

Betting matches sometimes are fights against ferocious monsters, you could lose your life if you do poorly.

If you wonder why I am talking about something so dangerous

[Gold and power are all useless. The dukes son? If anyone want me to give them up then I will. Having just a sword is good enough.]

Elstat havent been able to abandon the longing of being embraced ever since childhood.

Live with the sword, die with the sword way of living.

As the heir of the duke, in a way he is in a terribly cramped position on the contrary to his own way.

It was a dream that was supposed to have forgotten in his day by day life, but even now Elstat is still trying to achieve it.

And so not being able to compromise between ideal and reality, the irritation from that had finally driven him to partipating in the arena.

Well, as a matter of course, this anguish became the focal point in his route.

Now lets talk about how our heroine-chan dealt with such a young mental monster, that is she went out with him while patiently listening to his dream story without complaining.

Like him saying[the real me is not in this school.] or [I am so tired of this curse of a dream.]

Thanks to the beautiful CG and the voice actors work, I went moe when playing it but when I calmed down and think about it carefully, it is just some messed up painful remarks. Of course, Elstats looks after ten years will probably make me scream Uwa while burying my face on a pillow.

Or should I say that heroine, what a girl to be able to listen to that calmly. It makes you wonder whether she is a counselor or not.

As expected of the heroine, youre amazing heroine. If it was me, no matter how much of an ikemen the other partner is, I will definitely run away from him. Id probably even knock him down.

.anyway, Ive actually tried to vent it on cactus doll-kun.

The cheer-up Cactus-kun is willing to comfort me.

If he were the real thing, he will really prick me but since he is only knitted, it is okay.

Rather it was fluffy, so I felt really better..

Fuu.(TL: taking a breath sound by the way.)

I calmed down a little.

Hmm.

I wonder whether its okay to talk nonstop to a doll even if it has its own will. I ddont know since when it has become such a strange habbit of mine.

It is a natural thing now since I am the Doll Princess wait, I guess its not. It definitely looks creepy to outsiders.

On the other hand, its not like my previous life common sense also applies here either, so it cant be helped. It cant be helped, yep.

More importantly, lets think about things from here on.

Thanks to Cactus-kun, I became a little more positive.

Thinking about it calmly, to me, Altirea, Elstat is just the child of my fathers friend.

He is neither a capture target nor a fianc.

Moreover, if he was the truoblesome guy whose heart is for the sword, then I just had to have the most minimum contact with him and thats it.

Whats more, it seems like an unexpected chance that I should grab.

I have gotten pretty good as a doll user anyway.

If I was able to impress the Rozerem duke with this ability, it would also help with persuading father later.

Yoshi, lets work hard.

I recovered my spirit and got out of bed.

Because of the shock, I had to go into my room.

First of all.. everyone, set.

The Rozerem duke will be coming tomorrow.

Lets do a thorough cleaning today. Of course, its also to appeal to father.

Ordering with my finger, the dolls throughout the house has gathered together.

Knight, maid, devil, white bear, and so on. Far from being a group nor my caompanions. They are the results of test making them with diferrent appearances and abilites.

Each of the dolls have spirit that dwells within them, and their likes or dislikes are all according to their spirit attributes.

The wind spirits are assigned to clean the mansion while the earth spirits is to look after the garden.

The water spirit dolls are to wash those that have gotten dirty and heal those who got injured by accident.

The fire spirits..well, what to do with them?

They are mischievious so they get in various troubles. Theyve been fine until now, but itll be bad since father is coming back.

Lets see.

I guess Ill let them play with the children of the territory like they have always been for now.

Oh-

Dont be so down.

Ill prepare an arena for you someday.

Yep, really really.

As the one who supervises the dolls, I cant afford to relax in my room.

Staying at the place and looking over them, its important to be able to give appropriate instructions according to the situation.

Garden, entrance, hallway, dining room, I walk throughout the house.

Eventually, I spotted father at the stairs.

[Hey, Alty. While I was unaware, youre able to use magic so well, huh.]

As usual its his nice to hear comfortable gentle voice.

Solute Wisp, my father as well as one of the diplomacy ministers of this country.

He has the same gold hair and blue eyes as me, but totally different than the cold pisque doll me. His expression is always overflowingly warm that just make you want to endlessly rely on him.

[The home tutor was also saying that Altirea is so good at remembering that he/she will run out of things to teach in the coming year, something like that.]

If my plan to not attend the magic academy is not successful then there will be lots of problems.

[Isnt that amazing? I am so proud of a daughter like you.]

My father, with his big hands, patted my head with a -pon-pon-.

Being both happy and embarassed, I lower my head a bit.

Diverting my eyes to look ahead, I see an angel doll wiping the window.

[But such amazing dolls. Really make me remember old times.]

[Do father used to know other doll users?]

[Yeah, there used to be a guild member. However, I think the you now are probaly better than him.]

.eh?

Wait a minute!

I somehow just heard some strange words.

Guild member?

[Speaking of Alty and the enthusiasm of youths. You know in the old days, I used to be an adventure.]

Oh this is a medieval fantasy world after all, the capture targets were also adventurers but the image of father now isfar from an adventurer.

Using sword and magic to get rid of slimes or trolls.

Honestly, its really hard to imagine.

[Since Im finally here, lets talk about the past memories 9together. Come here, Alty. Why dont we chat with some tea?]
