It was the day before the tea party, I apparently woke up after 2 days of being unconscious.

The day after that, yesterday, was spent inside my room.

After finally calming down the second time I woke up, I cleaned up the traces of tears and blood on my face.

I never realized when tears stopped flowing and blood started pouring from my eyes.

I once again looked at the mirror, but unlike last time, I feel rather calm after seeing my own reflection.

[Yo.]

[W-what!?]

I drew back from the mirror, surprised at the sudden image of a girl flying behind me in the reflection, I stumbled and fell.

Looking behind, there wasn't any such person.

It's probably just my imagination...

[Like hell it is!]

...or not.

She really is different from the original Stella, and by that I mean worse.

[Oi I can hear you!]

[If you could talk to me like this, why did you even make that dimension in the first place!?]

[Oh! There's a reason for that.]

[And what reason could that be?]

I asked that as I changed my clothes while looking at the mirror.

[You see, ever since "we" were born, I had to focus on our three mana cores, making sure we won't die.]

[Unlike "someone" who did whatever she wanted.]

[Tsk.]

[Creating that dimension was difficult, but it served for two purposes.]

[One is allowing me to speed up the process, allowing me to talk with you like this.]

[The other one is to give you that warning.]

She winked as she told me that.

["That", huh.]

I combed my hair as I spoke with her.

[With those questions answered, we can finally start planning.]

[Wait you haven't even planned yet!?]

She's really worse than I thought.

[You know I can hear you right? And this is mostly your fault you know?]

[How is this my fault!?]

I was planning to tie my hair, but gave up on the thought and left it straight.

[Anyways, our first action will be for tomorrow.]

[The tea party, huh.]

With all the noble children attending, it's a perfect place to make connections.

[But we have to deal with our first problem at hand.]

[Huh? And what the hell could that be?]

[You.]

!?

[W-what!? How could I be a problem!?]

[Tell me, other than your self-imposed attitude, how have you talked with other people?]

[Isn't that obvious!? I...uh]

...

[...uh]

...

Shit.

The only person I remember actually talking to in my previous life was my friend, and we mostly just played games together.

[That's why you should try avoiding conversation with people who have huge influences in the future.]

[...]

[And never get close with royalty.]

I nodded while thinking about the events that happen in the game, even if this world isn't the same from the one I've played, many events that have occurred are similar to the ones in the game.

Like that event.

[Stella.]

[Hm?]

[When I reach nine years old...]

[...]

["That" happens right?]

[...Yeah.]

[Can I prevent it from happening?]

[Unfortunately, no.]

[But-]

[That'd be the same as putting or lives at risk.]

[What you're saying, isn't that basically the same as my previous attitude?]

[I am you after all. Oh, time's up, we'll talk again next week.]

After saying that, a knock from the door suddenly resounded throughout the room.

Opening the door, my personal maid, Nora, could be seen standing right in front of it.

"Good morning milady."(Nora)

She said that in a rather cold tone, as she bowed in a dignified manner.

"I'm very sorry for disturbing you, but breakfast has been prepared in the garden."(Nora)

"N-no it's all right, I wasn't really doing anything so..."(Lydia)

She suddenly stood straight as I said that, with her eyes wider than it usually is.

She seems surprised for some reason.

"M-milady, are you alright?"(Nora)

"Y-yes I am, l-let's just go to the garden already."(Lydia)

I don't know how I look, but I'm sure I'm sweating like crazy!

Can't I just be a shut-in for life?

The thought came to me but in this world, such a thing can only be a dream.

And dreaming of such a thing can only plant dangerous flags, so I focused on the current problem.

Socializing sucksss!!!!!!!!!
