The Shizukuishi pavilion of life, upstairs part, has six rooms.

The only person who lives in the clerk is Shilo, who says he will lend the rest to overnight guests, visitors who have just arrived - now it's Cro, etc.

The room is modestly small.

There are only three posts, a tired bed and a small desk, after which it's about a place to stand already.

There, Crowe and Econa are staying.

I could have searched for an inn, but I sometimes stayed because I liked the hope of Econa and the noise of Kosuke himself, the liquor store.

What makes the room the same is Econa's hope.

I used to get together and sleep with slaves to outnumber the cold, and before that I slept with my parents, so I miss sleeping alone, and of course if it seems annoying to you, even one person, I can't say no at all... or something.

Finish your breakfast, drink a glass of milk that has become your earliest habit, and return to your room.

The package arrived yesterday.

Courtesy, they say.

They are not suits or dresses worn by the nobles, but by those who take up the fighting profession when they participate in the ceremony.

He doesn't mind if it's a separate suit, but Kosuke is the lead actor today, so Daltra prepared it for me.

In a black uniform-style costume, it was a pitch-black cloak that looked fancy.

Because Yusuke uses' black ', I guess.

To cheap taste, I laugh bitterly.

Easy to understand, should I praise you?

However, a lot of fine fabrics are used.

The buttons on the military uniform are sterling silver, and the design of the red embroidery applied to the cape (which must be because this is a 'fire' labyrinth attacker) is elaborate.

Saying it was just a courtesy dress, I could see the attitude of hanging gold anyway with the finest versus magic material braided, called 'Black Moonlight'.

If it's going to translate into the value of the world you were in, can you buy a luxury car or some single family home?

Since the ceremony is a meeting place for many nobles and leading figures, it may be a consideration to prevent Kosuke from floating there.

When I finished dressing in my room, Econa came.

When I look at Yusuke, "... whoa," he looks like a kid who found a sweet house.

I can't look directly at that gaze that tickles me off, and I ask.

"... isn't that weird? I've never worn anything like this before."

All I said was that I was worried, Econa shook her neck.

With that, her hair wobbled.

"It looks great...!

"Thank you, if that's what Econa would say, I'm getting confident."

Say, stroke your head.

She was adult, rather than moving on to accept it, and loosened her cheeks.

"Speaking of which, what are you doing in your room?

"Oh, I wanted to talk to your husband, and I gave my master a break"

Econa is a worker and the master is a good person, so I guess that doesn't matter.

Kosuke nods and responds, as Econa looks up at this one as she peeps.

"Oh, good."

said Econa.

My life is very stable right now and I am grateful to Kosuke for giving it to me.

If we keep this up, we do save some money, and someday, maybe we can do something.

"Well, still,... that, what if I,... with you, your husband... yes, you want to be with me, no, no?

Econa is anxious.

Though I said I would be one of them, I said that although we are spending time together, I have not been given anything by Kosuke.

So I was wondering if maybe by the time the money was saved, Yusuke would say goodbye just because she fulfilled her responsibilities.

"I want to send Econa to Guiborne someday. Because I remain a slave in this country, because I think my country is better off than that kind of treatment. At least it's better that way for education."

Kosuke is a child.

Econa is also a child.

I don't know if Kosuke can raise her correctly.

I don't want to own her just to make her exhausted.

So, thinking about her happiness, I concluded so.

Econa burst into tears and grabbed the service clothes.

"Oh, yeah, well, I'm not at all helpful, and I'm not..."

"No, wait, we're not done talking"

Yusuke gave in before her.

Dust on my cape, but I don't care.

"Earlier, I was talking about what I thought was only the best way to do that. Econa, I can't be your parent. Choosing this country means you can't go to school, you can't choose a job, you can't find someone to marry. If I could treat you as a convenient slave, I wouldn't think about it. I told you we were buddies. So I'm thinking about happiness. I thought about your future."

Ekona listens to Kosuke.

"I thought it was for your happiness to return to your country. Even now, one way or another, I think so. You're not sure. I'm afraid I'm gonna carry your life. Because life is very important. For me, your life is important."

Look her in the eye, and if there is no lie in the words, so that it may be conveyed.

"But if you say you're prepared to continue to suffer with me, not as my husband, but as a companion, let me give you a hand."

Pompous, tears fall from her eyes zero.

Squeezing up her throat, she still tried, laughing.

"Can I have your hand, please?"

"Oh, as much"

"Ah... not really, hands"

Yusuke blushed.

Cough it up to deceive me and give me your right hand.

Econa lifts it, on the back of her hand, and mouths it.

"I, Econa Noizzi-Will Elaine, hang and swear that I will be with you until I am finally surrounded by Mother Earth and invited to Heavenly Gardens"

That's a declaration.

It was like, a wedding ritual, a dialogue.

"In Gibborne, it's a ritual of swearing allegiance and love."

"... which one is that, by the way?

"Both…"

Econa says, turning her face bright red.

"Right..."

- [Condition] has become 'Mental Pollution 0.273'.

Yusuke laughs at me for being simple.

After all, aren't you glad she's near you?

Gently, take Econa's right hand.

"... eh"

Confused, staring straight at her, kissing the back of her hand.

"I, Yusuke Kurono, hang and swear that we will be together until the end of time when we are finally surrounded by Mother Earth and invited to Heavenly Gardens"

Her whole body became red, as heat spread not only from her face, but from the tip where her lips touched her.

"............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"I wonder if it's love. Not in love, though."

In response, Econa looked complicated but ended up smiling.

"Cro! I'm picking you up!

And I can hear Shilo from downstairs.

"Well, I'll be there"

Stand up and pay the cape.

"Oh, that!

"Yeah."

"Kuro's, this way? Is that your husband's, real name?

"Yeah. Oh, why don't you call me once? Keisuke."

"Uh, so,"

"There's only me and you in this room."

She swallowed her spit as she had decided, then took a deep breath and mouthed the name.

"Here, this way, Sama"

"I don't need you."

"Here's the thing......"

"Well, okay. I knew you'd come better than your husband. It's my real name, so it's obvious."

"So...! Oh, um, if you don't mind..."

Kosuke nodded, guessing what he wanted to say.

"Oh, keep it up, when you two are by name, please. I wish you could."

Econa looked like she had received a treasure and nodded.

"Yes. Welcome,... Here's how it works."

"I'm coming."

It is very happy to have someone waiting for me to return.

Yusuke felt it deeply.
