Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

56 Comfort Party of Twelve Loveless Men (Clemens, Zack)

"It's been a long time since I've been drunk."

Clement, who was slowly enjoying the taste and aroma of a glass of liquor in his mouth, turned to the man in front of him. Though the words themselves were a bit of an obsession, Zach's eyes, which had spoken of them, were of a caring colour.

Well………

Clement shakes the glass with a smile of some suffering. The clear liquor waved slowly and bounced small, releasing a soft, rich grain scent.

"Well, you can't keep sliding."

"Heh?... well, I guess I finally blew it out."

"... it's still too early to say it blew out... well, yeah. Almost there."

When she realized her thoughts, the woman she had secretly loved was already sharing them with her best friend.

No, actually, I noticed it slightly. But I was comfortable standing up like my brother. While secretly warming up the affection for a woman who lived hard, I just kept watching as I didn't want to break such a good distance - while doing so, the incident happened. I couldn't prevent it. Almost everything was over while I was away for only a few months.

All that was left was a badly wounded girlfriend, a feeling of remorse for not being able to protect it, and a feeling of self-blame for not being able to help when I had to protect her the most.

(... I'm sure you don't know. I know that your wounds weren't the only ones on your mind.

Don't look.

That sad scream, which was so disturbing, still sticks to my ears. Nils and I both remember that thin body, Zack who gave her a tranquilizer with a mouthwash, and her who left him alone - all of it, but she doesn't remember anything about that time.

--And then I realized that moment. Theoli and Zack are in love. I chose the path of becoming a brother and sister by taking the incident as a border, without ever revealing my feelings while thinking about each other.

If he closest to her seals his thoughts.

I can't even tell you how I feel about being near her and not doing anything like him.

A love that ends without expressing its thoughts occasionally burns its chest and chest.

But still.

Every time I found a new love, exchanged thoughts, and saw Alec and the two smiling closer together, my chest ached, but I felt more relieved. The wounds of two women who have lived hard in adversity - loved ones and dear best friends - are healing.

Those two struggled too hard. So, that's enough. It's time to be happy.

I wonder if this is good. That's what I've been thinking lately.

"... well, you'll find enough good women from now on. It's more ridiculous what you've never seen before."

"I'm sure I've been invited a few times."

Clement leans the glass with a bitter smile.

"Some of them were nice... thank you. It would be rude to go out with someone who doesn't want to."

There were many ladies who wanted to play with fire, but there were some who would have been serious. But none of them could move their index fingers. The only woman I've ever seen who seemed to love me was Shiori.

"What a nice woman....."

Zack sighed bitterly at Clement's recommendation, looking deliciously at it.

"How's Nadia? That's a good girl, too. I know you're in the mood."

"... you sure are a good woman."

Clement laughed bitterly if she hadn't met Theoli, and if she hadn't known Nadia's identity, she might have really spoken.

"A woman who may have been your best friend's fiancée. I'm not going to make it."

In fact, the relationship ended with a mutual promise. The other man died in an accident, so Nadia's presence never became public.

"I don't know who he was anymore. I'm a civilian like you. Besides, you said you were done mourning."

Maybe so.

"... you too... are a tough guy."

Zach smiled bitterly.

"There's more to a gentleman who cares."

"I told you."

Clement also smiled bitterly and raised her lips in a slightly uncomfortable shape.

What about you, Zach?

I fell in love with Theoli and settled into my brother's position, and Nadia is familiar with Zack. You know her better than yourself.

"That's how you can reach your dead best friend's girl. I guess I shouldn't be the first person in my position."

"You...."

He poured the wine into the empty glass and sighed, and looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"It's hard for each other."

"Absolutely."

Nevertheless.

"But you would hardly have missed a woman before seeing Theoli. What's wrong with that?"

I think all the women were quite in harmony, but someday the relationship was resolved so that it would naturally disappear.

As soon as I pointed it out, Zach lowered his eyebrows and buttocks in a pathetic shape.

"That's it....."

After drinking, he exhales.

"... it's fine at first. We'll be together for a long time and we'll all talk about it." It's cool, but it's kind of like a father or a brother rather than a lover... "

"... you..."

Has the goodness of taking care of her appeared in the back?

Even if he was still in good company with Shiori, it was still the case - the idea dashed across the corner of his head and rushed to cancel it out.

"... I don't know... well, I'm sure you'll find a nice woman."

"... thank you."

With an unspeakable bitter smile, Zach sipped another sip of alcohol and dropped his gaze into the glass.

"Still, it's delicious, this one. I have a strong habit, but it's not bad. Have you ever had a drink from the East?"

"Oh, it must taste pretty good."

Clement nodded and showed him the label of the bottle bearing the name in the letter of the Oriental Meat Thick.

"It's like a sake made of potatoes. It's called" Thousand Years of Loneliness. "

"Ubuho!?"

Soon he sprayed out the liquor in his mouth and swallowed it back.

"Ugh... what an ominous drink!

"But it will be delicious. I tried to make Alec drink, but I failed."

"Ohhhhh...."

Clement laughed loudly. Zach laughs at himself with a face that looks like a successful prank, and finally laughs at Zack who stares at us with a grudge.

--An alcoholic drink between heartbroken men that lasted until late at night.

Drink your past love with delicious liquor and return it to your memory.
