Die If I Can't Marry Off My Favorite (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 36

A favorite is a favorite. I do like As, but I’ve never once thought I wanted to date him.

What I want isn’t to film some sweet romantic comedy with my favorite—it’s to stick right beside him and watch his every move.

If I accidentally develop romantic feelings for As, we’ll inevitably grow awkward later on, and I won’t even be able to stay near him anymore.

Besides, Asperan Loakin is the sovereign of this nation. This is a world with a rigid class system.

The one destined to stand beside Asperan should rightly be either royalty from another country or, at the very least, a noble.

In other words, even setting aside the fact that Asperan is my favorite, he was never someone I could ever hope to reach for in the first place.

‘A crazy romance novel fan from a democratic country, yet utterly obsessed with this world’s strict class hierarchy. That’s me.’

Lost in such silly thoughts, my face, which had been burning hot, had already cooled back to normal. I stood up and stretched lightly.

“Whew, to think I’d get this flustered over just one act of kindness from my boss.”

It’s all because As is just too handsome. If I’d been a heartless lumberjack, seeing that face would’ve made me realize, “Ah, so this is love. So I really did have a heart after all.”

Still, thanks to my supreme rationality and wisdom, I quickly regained the proper mindset of a loyal servant.

I’ll just work hard as his subordinate. Work hard enough to get my favorite married off and then go around smooching adorable little Asperan juniors.

Though I’d been momentarily flustered, this incident did teach me something valuable.

Namely, that if Asperan ever got a lover, he’d treat them exceptionally well.

Then all I need to do is introduce him to someone decent. After that, he’ll surely manage just fine on his own.
