Monster no Goshujin-sama

Eight.

After returning from a monster crusade in the surrounding area of the village and removing the dirt, I left the house for some air outside.

The sky is stained with beautiful oranges and the sunset is about to set half way.

"O Lord."

Just when I was home, Gabella called me out.

A white body was stained with a sunset color.

"It would be time for dinner. of going somewhere."

"No. I just came out for some outside air. What happened to Gabella?

"The concubine has just finished guarding the village. Silan and I took turns and came back."

"Right. Good luck."

"Uhm."

Gabella is approaching.

My hand is reaching out.

"... what?

He touched my head.

It's not a stroke or anything, but a peppered touch so that the child touches the toy.

"Don't get wet."

"I took a bath."

Precisely soaked in hot water stored in a large bucket.

It uses imitation demon stones, and I also provided one to the village, which is very delightful.

"Mmm. Right, in the bath"

Gabella pointed her lips.

"Then I wish you'd gone home a little sooner"

"What does that mean?"

"That's what I meant"

The spider legs chirped.

"I was hoping the Lord would help me wash my body."

"... no. It's tough washing your body, isn't it?

I became half-eyed.

It doesn't even scratch sweat on the spider's body, so Gabella usually just needs to wipe her upper body.

It just gets a little dirty, so I take a bath once in a while.

Gabella's spider body is bigger than a person's.

In the meantime, I have long hairs.

Would you know if I told you it was many times harder than a big dog's shampoo?

It will take hours if you put it in to dry.

"If it's troublesome down there, just up there."

"There's not much point in me washing the top..."

"There is. I'm happy with my concubine."

Hmm, and Garbera grinned.

"Is the Lord not glad?"

"... in No Comments"

"My lord, you're so itchy."

Even as we talked, our hands touching each other came down to our cheeks.

The hand was pulled in unexpectedly.

"Mm?"

Gabella walked this way.

There, there was the figure of two groups of villagers who wanted to go through.

"Ah! Welcome back, Takahiro!

"Good luck crusading"

One was an elf in the village and the other was an outgoing group from the neighbouring village.

The two of us are carrying one large crate.

"And Mr. Gabella, too. Good luck with the perimeter of the village."

"Uhm."

He doesn't look particularly frightened, and he also speaks to Gabella.

After Gabella snorted at Eagle Deep, I asked.

"Good luck. What are you carrying?"

"It's supplies from the next village!

There was a temperamental response.

The one who answered is the elf who lives in this village from the beginning. He reports happily.

"It arrived before Takahiro and the others returned, so we carry it!

"Oh......"

Speaking of which, I remembered receiving such a report when I came back to the village.

At this meeting, Mr. Philippe has promised to support the supplies.

As for the missing portion of the current situation, it was to be borrowed from the neighbouring village and returned when the support came out.

"Surely Kay was making a list of supplies borrowed from the neighbouring village. You're done, aren't you?"

"Oh, no. That's not yet."

Continuing, the village elf answered.

"It's just that it's getting dark now, so we're talking about carrying it away from what's finished with the record."

"Was I? Good day. Can I help you with anything?

"Huh? No! Oh no! I can't believe you asked Takahiro to help me!

He shook his head to the side, just terribly.

"It seems Takahiro was out in the Tree Sea, you must be tired. If you don't rest your body...... oops!?

The elf who was answering made a panicked voice.

The clap I answered in a dusty manner upset the balance I had with the crate.

"That's dangerous. Be careful."

Before I could get my hands on it, a little jumping gabella was sticking out my spider leg.

A long stretched spider leg cleverly supports the crate that has fallen in.

In the meantime, they rebalanced.

"Oh, thank you"

"Damn, you are"

Another elf told him like he was frightened and thanked Gabella for being able to pull the spider leg in.

"Thank you, Mr. Gabella"

Even against me, I bow my head.

"Takahiro too. I showed you the ugly part."

It was a friendly and respectful attitude, although not as great as the other.

"Now if you'll excuse me."

Now it's time to carefully re-hold the box and the two of you leave.

Gabella, who dropped him off, hummed her nose.

"I feel weird."

Tilt your neck like a child.

"I didn't know the day would come when a concubine would be treated like this, normally in a people's settlement"

"Right. I feel a little weird, too."

Ever since she stepped into the world of men, Gabella has been avoiding people.

I've been careful not to find her or any other family member.

I am happy with the fact that it was thus accepted, but at the same time I find it uncomfortable.

"But I'm sure this will be normal"

If I turned my gaze to the strong words, Gabella was staring at this one again.

"No. We're going to try to make this normal. Would it be?"

"... right"

I smiled back, too.

So, Fuji Gabella turned her gaze behind me.

There was a door opening behind me.

Looking back, I met Rose, who pushed the door open.

"Ah..."

Rose gave a small voice.

Neat.

Because of that, I lose the time to speak up.

Rose kept the door halfway open, parking her movements.

When I saw how we were doing, Gabella did it right.

"Hmm?"

Compare me to Rose.

"... Hmm"

Gabella snorted, nodding.

I'm gonna turn my gaze on this one.

"Well. I think it's time for the concubine to go back. The Lord is still here."

Gabella acted quickly.

When I go inside the house instead of Rose, I close the door.

"Gabella......"

"Bye. You'll be back by dinner."

A slap and a door rang, leaving only the two of them behind.

I knew right away that they cared.

I met Rose face to face.

I felt restless as soon as I could, and I strayed from my gaze.

"Uh... what happened to Rose"

"Well, your husband... no. I thought I'd take a walk."

"Right."

"Yes."

... I wondered what was wrong, and I lowered my brow.

It was an unbelievable interaction.

How is this happening?

There wasn't some clear cut.

Since I settled in this village, I've been able to take a good amount of time with Rose, and this is how it was when I realized it.

It was a funny story.

Instead, I have always felt calm and calm with Rose.

That could have been half imprinted.

Live or die. Rose told me that she would protect me from living in a sea of trees that she didn't even know about tomorrow.

How much the devotion was salvation.

For example, the night I slept with Rose in my arms one day.

I will never forget that serenity.

I was relieved that she was with me.

Because now, that doesn't change.

It's just that I'm not done with that anymore.

Time has flown since we met, and Rose has changed.

I became a girl.

Poor, healthy, all the way.

In a mundane moment, that? I think.

Eye gaze?

Attitude.

Because there was somehow something to pass on.

Besides, unlike Lily and Gabella, Rose doesn't say anything.

Even if I deduced from my attitude, Rose was originally very fond of me and hard to discern.

The only thing for sure is that those Rose attitudes make me aware of myself as a girl.

When I'm with Rose, sometimes.

What is this emotion?

It's almost like the answer is already out there.

...... but that's where the brakes go.

Common sense in the original world gets in the way - but that's not all.

If that's all, it's still good.

There was another major cause.

That's my relationship with Rose.

Rose is highly loyal and has a delightful personality to serve.

Assuming I ask for such a relationship, Rose will surely accept it.

Even if she didn't have those feelings for me.

You can't do that.

Because I think so, I hesitate to step out.

In a way, my relationship as a previously cherished subordinate was here to get in the way.

As a result, Rose can't possibly not have noticed this air, which has become dull.

"The... your husband. Have I done something?"

He asks in an anxious voice.

A hand wrapped in a white long-handbag held the apron hem.

"No, I'm not."

I waved for the first time.

"But..."

"It's not, Rose. This is my side of the problem… I can't say it well, but it's not offensive or anything."

I thought this might not be enough, I added.

"I'm glad to be with Rose."

"Your husband..."

Rose rounds her eyes.

I felt embarrassed, but I tried not to distract myself.

"Is it true"

"Oh, it's true"

"Really..."

When I was strong enough, Rose seemed to believe me.

From the bottom of my heart, I show relief.

"That would have been nice."

As the sunshine peeked out of the cloudy sky, I immediately got a bright look.

Even a little thing like this makes me realize that I have something moving in my chest.

I didn't want to laugh bitterly in my heart that this was already confirmed.

"Did Rose come out for a walk? There will still be a little until dinner. Do you want to walk?"

"Yes. Your husband"

When I walk out, Rose follows me for half a step.

The footsteps are light and delightfully flatter your mouth.

The sun was setting as we talked.

The sunset is disappearing and the sky is getting dark like ink.

A snarling remnant dyed the view of the village into a dark pearl - illuminating the path to be taken, the figure of one ghost.

"... Huh?

There is the word witchcraft.

The sun sets, the day and the night shift, and people meet demons.

Black skin blending into darkness. ominous red hair.

The vicious grin that devours the beholder from his head is filled with killing and hostility.

"Oh, Mashima."

One of the Cathedral Knights, 'The Ghost of War' Edgar-Givalsh, was there.

I'm here to pay my debts.
