Let's Manage The Tower
(5) Species called Elves
Kaiseki's head turned white at the sight in front of him.
The place where this is happening is the bedroom of management's assistant. I rarely sleep alone when it comes to studying assistants.
I always sleep with someone, so there is someone else in the room as usual.
But that was the problem.
It was Colette who welcomed me into the bedroom that day.
And for some reason, I was wearing a maid's clothes.
No, it suits you. It suits me, but it looks impossible from my usual attitude.
I also wondered where I bought such clothes, but in the first place, I wondered why Colette wore such clothes and was here.
Besides, Colette's first voice welcomed the incoming examiner,
"... oh, well done. Dear Master,"
It was.
Though your ears and face turned bright red, you can still quickly return to me while inadvertently taking away your eyes by looking at the face of Kaiseki.
"No, no, no. What is this? What's the situation? Some kind of punishment game!?
"Of course not! Ah... no!
It was Colette who accidentally shouted at me in the usual way, but I rushed to fix it.
Colette just keeps looking at the exam.
"... uh? Your mistress?
It's just a sizzle.
"... uh, what's embarrassing about seeing so much...?
Zee...
"... I'm sorry?
The examiner sighed to apologize for leaking from Colette's mouth.
"... hah. So, what is this, a joke?
"Ah, hey... wait. This is nothing but a joke..."
"What?" What do you mean?
Colette saw a flicker in her head, but she finally breathed out like she had given up.

It all started because Sylvia noticed something different about Colette.
No one else noticed, but Sylvia, who has been there for quite some time.
I've been aware of her strange condition for a long time.
Nothing like that has never happened before, so I left it on the spot, but I thought it was strange to drag it to the boulder so I decided to hear the story directly.
Nevertheless, there was a possibility that other people's management would not be able to hear even what they could hear, so I watched them be alone and came to the foot of the world tree.
The foothills of the world trees are rarely approached, even by the surrounding elves.
Certainly a good place for Colette to be alone.
Except for the examiners.
Normally, I could be stopped by the guards, but Sylvia was never stopped and was allowed to approach normally.
Fortunately, he approached Colette.
Did you notice the approaching footsteps? Colette, who was lying down, raised her face and confirmed that Sylvia was approaching.
"Ah, that? Sylvia, what's going on?
"... at all. It's not what's wrong. That's what I'm supposed to tell you."
"... eh!?
Sylvia looked stunned to Colette, who looked surprised.
"I didn't think so, but you didn't even notice it yourself, did you?
"What are you talking about?
"You've been acting a little strange since the morning, right? Are you having any trouble?
Sylvia's dialogues made Colette look like she had been poked in the face.
"Trouble? Me!?
"... hah. This is serious."
From Sylvia's point of view, it was obviously in a strange state, but he didn't seem to have noticed at all.
"Well, that's fine. In the meantime, can you tell me what you were thinking here?
"Well, no, it's not a big deal..."
It's okay.
Colette tried to say no, but Sylvia forced me to.
And as for myself, I was told a lot of stories that I don't think are particularly important.
And the last thing Sylvia said after hearing Colette's story was,
"... dull or something."
"Eh!? What's that?"
Seeing Colette, who was seriously wondering, Sylvia decided that this was beyond her control.
I thought about who to talk to and remembered that there was just the right person, so I took Colette to the place.
The other way was to Dory's tree.
To be precise, it's Cheryl, who's the witch of Dolly's tree.
Sylvia, who almost dragged Colette, told Cheryl the story.
However, it is.
"... is that a problem?
The answer came back.
Colette nodded that there was nothing wrong with her.
Sylvia held her head as she watched the two.
Apparently, it turns out that this problem is a racial one. In addition, there was a strange convincing argument that the birth rate would drop.
A rescue ship came before Sylvia worried about what to do.
It's Dory.
"Um... Elves are kind of close to us, so it's not as good as human seeds."
"... I really felt it."
"So, this is a suggestion, why don't you talk to your expert?
"Expert? Who are you?
"I'm sorry. I don't even know your name, but wasn't there anyone on the succubus?
It's about Peach.
I thought Sylvia was going to be fine. Certainly, on your side, in a sense, an expert.
He told Colette to stay there, went to Peach, and immediately brought her back.
As soon as I got to Dory and the others, I told Peach the same thing earlier.
I see ~
The peach who heard it nodded convincingly.
"So, is there anything you can do?
Dory was the one who rushed in to ask why.
"That's it? Why is Dory more serious?
Dory is somehow more serious than Colette, who is a party.
"Because it involves a species called Elves. And here's what we are."
He pointed to two people who were floating with a question mark.
"Hah, I see. Nevertheless, I can think of something, but it will probably be rough treatment for the person.
"I can't help it. I don't know when to notice it if it suits the feeling of an elf."
"It could be good for the Elves as a whole."
For some reason, Dory nodded vigorously at Peach's disturbing words.
Sylvia looked at Colette and nodded.
Colette, who was watching the situation, had a bad feeling, but she quickly regretted why she didn't run away.
