After that, Gact's eyelids slowly open as he gradually regains consciousness.

"Where are we...?"

A window was opened on the left side of the line of sight, and I heard from the outside.Outside, the moon is already illuminating the darkness.The nearby lantern lit up my face, so I was very dazzled.

I still have a headache despite my ability to heal myself or the damage I took from Ketterness's powers.

When I gently put my hand on my forehead, the bandage was wrapped around it.

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

Bandages have been around since I broke my bones in high school.

Not to mention coming to this world and healing the wound with the force of human separation, I thought it was something that I no longer needed.Gact felt a little warmth from this bandage.

Wake up your body slowly.Looking around, there is a lantern on a shelf with a wooden drawer nearby.

The walls were decorated with paintings that looked like dragonmen were dancing.The painting, illuminated by the lantern fire, looks a little creepy.

At that time, I heard a rattle and when I looked at you, a dark wooden door opened.From there comes a maid with beautiful cream-colored short hair.

"Ah, are you awake?How is your body? "

"Ah... ah, I still have a little headache, but I think it's getting easier."

Good ~ Ah, we've been waiting for your meal

That said, when I got back to the entrance, a wagon with a meal came in.On the wagon was a soup where you can see the air rising from the lantern light, and two dishes where meat like fried chicken lined up on leaves like lettuce was cut and displayed beautifully.

"No... I..."

Ghhhhhhhhhhhh

At that time, the belly bug rang out without saying that I had been waiting.

"Ah...."

"Fufufu, your stomach is honest. Go ahead."

Say that and serve meat to the plate in front of the gat.

"... thank you."

And the fork.

Ah, thank you.

Pick up the fork and stab the meat into your mouth.

It was very juicy and seeped into my body, filling my heart and stomach.Speaking of which, I remember that I haven't eaten anything since morning.Once I put it in my mouth, I couldn't stop carrying the meat into my mouth.

"Is it delicious?"

"It's good....."

Good ♪ I have a refill. And some soup, please. "

After a quiet meal, I noticed that the food on the wagon was empty.

It was a treat.

"Yes - I'm glad you liked it ♪"

"... um..."

What's wrong?

"Why am I here?Normally, you'd be in jail or something, right? "

"What are you talking about?We didn't throw ourselves into such a mess. "

"I thought Ketterness could do it...."

"I see... may I sit down for a moment?"

"Oh, come on."

Gact moves his body a little and creates a space for a maid to sit on the bed.

"Hey... fuu... I'm tired of standing up!"

"Did you keep working?"

"It's every day now, but it's fun!... it wasn't about me, it was about Keterness!Mr. Ketterness is not really as cruel as people outside think.However, if you are a hard-working shop, you will cover your responsibilities immediately.That's why people around here are swinging around a lot. "

"But there are rumors that people aren't being treated well, but what about that?"

"Ahh... that's right... the old Keterness was a gentler way to behave towards people in the country.But one incident triggered Keterness to push herself further.It was because the people were so precious that a huge incident was triggered, and the people were trying to show God's dignity. "

"Incident?"

"... yes, it was before I was born, and there was a great war that I could not forget for my ancestors.It seems to have cost a lot of people and land.During the war, Master Keterness lost someone he loved.Since then, Keternes, the god of destruction, has been born, terribly feared by the people.But in the castle, which is out of sight of the people, I think it's quite impossible for me and other maids to see a relaxed Keterness. "

"How do you know that?"

"Well... when I came here as a new rice, he gathered the new rice that came in at the same time as me and told me about it.They told us that they were maids, but they didn't tell us that the soldiers might lose their morale.But after listening to Keterness, we wanted to help Keterness.That's why I think I'm a hard-working and kind person. "

Keterness, who was about to kill us, told me something inconceivable and I still can't believe it.

It's about Amura.I thought you were going to paste it and kill me.That is not in question.

"The Keterness tried to kill Amura.How about that? "

"Ah, that's a misunderstanding!!Perhaps Master Keterness had a different meaning and did that!! "

"Well then... what is that supposed to mean!!"

"Hyah!! That's... that's for me too..."

The conversation got hot and scared the maid's kid.Notice yourself in a hurry and calm down.

"I... I'm sorry, it's getting so hot..."

"... you're taking care of me, right?"

Huh?

"When Keterness talks about someone important, it gets hotter than usual.I thought it looked a little like that.You're also... a kind person who thinks you're alive. "

The maid smiles nicely. I felt that there was something moving about the words.And I became more concerned about Keterness.

"Well, you've been talking for quite a long time.Please rest today before touching your body.Thank you for being with us. "

The maid bows politely.

"No, thank you very much. It's good to hear so many stories."

"Fufufu, I wish you could say that. ♪ Well then...."

"Ah! Hey!!"

Huh?

"... can I see Keterness?"

"... fufufu, I'll see you tomorrow. Good night."

That said, the door was closed.Gact is also attacked by a sleeping demon, closing his eyelids.As I lost consciousness, the lantern fire went out.
