"Why, what is it?

Ein cuts white only.

I took a step away from Shannon, who was following me closely.

――――

On the other hand she said nothing and looked at her own hands.

I know what Ain't thinking right now. He said it should come as no surprise that in modern times the ability to really struggle could not show any influence.

"What's wrong?

"... no, it's nothing"

The air drifts between us as if nothing had happened.

Cutting off this stiffness was also still Ain.

"What have you been doing in the castle lately?

"Am I?

"That's right. No, this wasn't a good way to ask. What kind of work do you do in the castle?

She couldn't figure out the answer, even though she explored the sincerity of Ain's question.

"I 'm-- what I'm doing is a civilian impersonation. Sometimes after that, we do the kind of work that we do, and Silvia entrusts us with hearing the voices of the people."

"That's just an important job"

The same goes for suddenly changing the subject, but it also bothers me that Ain't happy to hear this word.

A moment when I gently reached out and opened my mouth "Um".

"Thank you for your continued support. I'm sure your father will be able to help you."

Conversely, Ain took her hand.

Gently enveloping her hands with both hands conveys his warmth.

Then Shannon was taken aback and his eyes black-and-white.

"Well, here I am. I'm still tired, so I'm off."

"Ah..."

Shannon couldn't say anything about Ain's back leaving and dropped him off lightly.

Every time he walks on the stone floor, the dry footsteps echo in this less popular place.

"............... stop it"

He slammed his own hand surrounded by Ain on the wall as if it were dust to spit on. A little scratch occurs on the skin, blood seeps in, and the walls, which should have been clean, are contaminated.

It was Ain't already invisible, but I was actually noticing this weird thing.

I think I'm just frustrated that I don't go the way I want to, so I never turned back and saw how it went.

"No, no."

On the other hand, Shannon's anomaly continues.

Everyone's jewel-like eyes in love lost their light and closed their eyes where shade had arisen.

Overlaying his other hand on his injured hand, he covered the cold air stabbing his cheek. Eventually I hold my body with both hands and let it shudder into small pieces and crouch in.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay"

Breathing gets rough, cursed grunts.

"It's all right now... no, because my powers are mine already... ugh"

He gripped his chest repeatedly with an uncomfortably strong heartbeat, shifting his consciousness away from memories he didn't want to recall.

Up some stairs, Ain meets Warren, who deposited her back on the wall.

"I don't think you should stay away from the chief."

"Why?"

"Yes, you don't have to tell me!? You know what I mean! The chief must be up to something!

"Why did you think that? Did someone tell you that?

"Damn...... no! You used to have an unusual obsession with Master Archet! Now I'm calm for some reason, but from me, I can't wait to be demonic!

Warren in this day and age is still Warren.

I realize Sylvia hadn't noticed yet, and I'm on guard against that. Now it's a different flow from Orthodox history, and I guess this is how I came to advise you.

"I'm the head of the same race, so I don't think I should say anything weird."

But less vigilant than modern Warren.

Young or worried about Ain?

"We have no special feelings because we are of the same race. Except for the chief and those close to him..."

"You're not."

"Oh. At least I just think I'm one of the people of this country - so it's okay about me. Don't let Master Marc get too involved with the long..."

"Thank you, I'm worried about you."

"Chi, no! She'll be sad if you have something!

Ain't got his heart struck by the straightening feeling that tickles his mind.

But there's nothing I can do about all this.

So don't dare mention it, walk out and force him to talk.

"But it's okay. I have an idea."

"Think about it?

One more step, Ain says as he climbs up the stairs.

"Thoughts. Because I have the wickedness that the Prime Minister taught me."

"Who the hell are you talking about? No, I don't know a single Prime Minister in this country."

"I think I'll find out someday. I have a very reliable and very smart Prime Minister."

Ein ended up laughing at Warren.

Just past the first floor, he smiles and opens his mouth all the time.

"I wasn't expecting to meet her earlier, but the flow is within my assumptions"

So far, I've been behaving so that I can catch her attention. I avoided it a while ago when I was about to be touched because I didn't think the time was ripe yet.

And the time is ripe now.

"I don't think you care about Mr. Archet anymore."

Even minus Ein's behavior, it's hard to take action because Archet's on guard.

So, it's a mystery to Ain that came here.

Shannon, who realizes his powers don't work, should almost certainly re-target him.

The target turns into Ain, and if this happens, nightmares like authentic history will almost certainly not come.

Shannon wasn't the only one who was up to it.

Because this is how Ain took action to move her target to herself long before she went inside the elf.

In addition, there was one unexpected joy.

That was a distance from Shannon, even if a man named Ed didn't go as far as to break away.

I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I can see that in the atmosphere since this morning.

Although Shannon's individual abilities are a frightening force, she is happy to see that her own fighting power is cut at all because she depends on others.

The only remaining critical battle force should be Oz.

"I don't know why you were after Mr. Archet."

I also hoped that I would get an answer to this sooner or later.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

In the middle of the night, when the stars painted the pitch-black sphere, Ain was in Raviola's room.

Ain't nowadays, for some reason, of Raviola sitting on her bed, sleeping on her lap.

"Now I think I should go, too."

Where are you going?

"When it's time for you to leave King's Landing, I'll come with you."

"... not too hasty?

"Nothing like that. Even the last time, I really wanted to go with you. I wanted to be beside Marc, but I thought it would still annoy me, so I put up with it."

Really, she has a very similar personality to Krone.

When they say it in the appearance and tone of the melons, they speak the same way they do when they are talking in this world.

"Even if it was an expedition across the ocean, I'd definitely like to be by your side next time."

Ein smiled bitterly at the dialogue he remembered something about.

Illuminated and out of sight.

Then I looked at the window and realized there was a small potted plant.

"What's that?

If you look closely at the potted plant, something was planted.

There's only one bud at the end of the single stem, and it's so swollen that it's likely to blossom now.

"The seed that Sylvia gave me before grew up. It's a very difficult flower to bloom."

"Heh..."

"It's been like that for six months... When I talked to Master Sylvia, she said she might want to plant you somewhere with beautiful water and dirt. So next time I'm going to plant you in the fountain behind the castle."

"... I see"

Is that what I am, or was that what happened? Eventually, Arre will be an example flower that blossoms large circles and turns the entire spring into a poisonous marsh.

Ein already knew exactly what he would look like in the future.

"I think so."

"Pfft, let's go plant together next time, shall we? If Marc the Dry Ado plants it, I'm sure he'll grow up fine too."

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

The next morning, Shannon walked into Ain's room.

It was a little while after the sun rose.

"- Uh, sorry to keep you waiting"

Ain, lightly familiar in his own bathroom, came under Shannon waiting on the couch.

From her gracefully lowered back, I can feel no less noble and graceful than those of the present royal family. In addition, beauty is seductive, but it also reminds me of the proximity of distance and friendliness.

"I'll make you some tea."

"Mm, tea?

"Yeah, I'm still confident about this."

With or without her, she abruptly brewed tea.

When a fragrant aroma drifts out all over the room, it is also aiming and about to attract me.

It's a corner. I'll take it.

He takes the cup to his mouth without being alarmed about anything.

The sound of swallowing, ha...... and exhaling after enjoying the tea. These also reached Shannon's ear, and she continued yesterday, surprised.

"It was delicious, what's wrong?

"No... I was surprised that someone like Marc drank without poisoning me."

"Uh, that. You didn't plant poison, did you?

"Oh, there isn't! But I can't believe I didn't get a little alert..."

"I didn't feel the need."

Okay, so Ain sits deep on the couch.

"What's the sudden matter?

Asked at a paragraph.

"I hear my child has been very helpful. In order to repay my gratitude, if you will leave some final things to me around Master Marc for a while..."

"You mean you'll do something like sidekick?

"Yeah, that would probably mean something similar."

As it turns out, Ain't been guided the way he planned.

Ain't never giggled or spared. I just purely stroked my chest down for what happened.

So follow me and stand under her behavior.

Ain offered his right hand with the laugh on which the thought was put.

"Eh."

Needless to say, I put this out with the intention of shaking hands.

But Shannon never tries to grab his hand, but instead rocks it up and down his throat, only once big.

This attitude is a trick Ain't never been taken from the opposite sex before. He was just as weak as he feared anywhere else to make him a loathsome opponent.

"You don't like me, do you?

"There is no such thing..."

Then what is it?

At least Shannon has tried to touch Ain before. But what you've been touching from Ain yesterday is unexpected.

Ain't no surprise, he remembers yesterday.

(Maybe I don't like being touched)

On the contrary, it is acceptable to touch someone from yourself.

But if so, I'm uncomfortable with the fact that I had a lot of contact with Archet.

Would it be different if it were under its own control?

"Don't you like being touched by people?

"Huh..................!?

"Oh, oh! No! I'm not blaming you for anything! Because if I'm not good at it, I'll be careful too!

was Shannon, who saw Ain with a stiff face, but she quickly regained her composure.

I thought I smiled again and immediately lay my hands on Ain.

"We've shown you how ugly you are. Please forgive my disrespect in front of the Lord I serve."

The moment his hands overlapped, the icy cold covered Ain's hand.

I narrowed my eyes to a completely different temperature than yesterday, but I would not pursue it, rather I gripped it back hard to erode the cold on hand.

Then.

"- Ah..."

The exhalation leaking out of her mouth is never glossy.

In one way or another, it should be referred to as a weakness leaked due to extreme tension.

But fix the grin.

"Thank you very much."

At the end of the day, I just said gracefully, a rushed voice arrives from outside the window.

'All I have to do is go! I'm not going to bother you!' And it's Marco's voice.

As Ain watched out for what was going on outside, Shannon pressed his hand against his rich chest to desperately relieve the tension earlier.

"Because something may have happened"

I'm just gonna check on you.

I tried to say this, Shannon, but I got my calm back.

"I'll come, too. I can use it by your side now."

And I didn't want to leave Ein.
