Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
Chapter 12.
It was the second day of a three-day weekend on Christmas Eve. Today, she was still in the kitchen in the morning.
"Hmph!
Pan! Boom! Gui! Gui!
Today, Eve stood in the kitchen before everyone was awake, kneading wheat.
Perhaps it was because yesterday's breakfast was udon, but today's menu seemed to be bread. Eve's movements are refined and ...... sophisticated as she puts a large amount of wheat into the machine to make bread, just like a large bakery. She seemed to be very lively, not feeling that she had fallen ill last night.
However, she was actually unwilling to act now. Just like yesterday, even though it was her day off, her body seemed to have moved and worked on its own when she realized it.
'Why not, ......?'
Eve stopped kneading the dough and thought about it. I'm not looking for praise.
It's not that I'm looking for praise or anything, but ....... Well, it's true that you get paid for your hard work. ...... But when you get paid, you have no use for it. ...... Why is that? ......
Eve didn't understand. Why do I keep working ......? It's a good thing that you're not the only one who has a problem with this.
...... Well, that's okay.
When she realized that her hands had stopped, she began to knead the dough again. She put the magic of strengthening her body on her small arms and began to knead a large amount of wheat. It's a great way to get rid of a lot of the stress and anxiety that comes with the job.
After eating.
After the meal. Eve was not relaxing in her room, but was walking around the castle with her cleaning equipment. Even though it was her day off, she was working on cleaning. Cleaning had become a kind of hobby for her, and it seemed that the time she spent cleaning was the time when she could be at ease.

Eve hummed as she wiped the windows. Holding a wet rag in her right hand and a dry rag in her left, she alternated between the two to wipe the windows clean.
After the windows were blown up, it was time to wipe down the floor. Using a combination of buckets and mops, they polished the floor of the castle.
"It's so shiny!
After wiping the floors, we wiped the walls, changed and watered the flowers in the vases, cleaned and reupholstered the carpets, etc. ...... Eve goes through the whole cleaning process. After all the work was done, Eve looked at the cleaned corridor of the royal castle and smiled with satisfaction.
Then, out of nowhere, a voice came out of nowhere.
"...... Hey, Eve. Do you know what rest means?
"Yes? Mr. Waltz?
I thought you were supposed to be resting.
She was fully equipped with a maid's uniform and cleaning tools. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not. He was worried because he knew that Eve had overworked herself last night.
Yes, ....... But maybe you don't mind, because it's easier for Eve when she's moving around and cleaning up like this?
"Easy" ....... (If you take it the other way around, it's like saying it's painful if you're not moving your body, do you realize that? No, I'm sure you don't. ......).
"Maybe I shouldn't clean the ...... house when I'm on vacation?
I'm not saying you shouldn't, but ...... I think you should be doing something different.
Huh?
Eve. You're not busy, are you? Well, I clean as a hobby, so I'm bored, right? Come with me for a while.
"Um, ...... of what?
"Nothing. Well, you'll find out if you follow me, won't you?
Waltz said and took Eve's hand. He took Eve's hand and began to walk with her, pulling her along in confusion.
The destination was outside the castle. With Eve's hand in his, Waltz opened a large door to ....... Then they went out into the city of Vixen, which was currently undergoing reconstruction work.
