The strongest swordsman was disappointed with the world's too low level and reincarnated into another world.

Me and Celia were coming home.

The house, in addition to Cretta, is home to Mr. Orfina and the rest of us, healing our fatigue.

"Well, Mr. Slade,"

"Yeah?"

Cletta talked to me after dinner.

What the hell is wrong with you?

"In today's fight, you must be pretty tired, right? If you like, should I massage you?

"Massage or... that's good. Regards."

Cretta's suggestion was gratifying.

Tomorrow, as the battle against the Dark Knight continues, I want to keep my body in shape as much as possible.

I've had Cretta give me a massage before, but that was tired and my body was doing well at a later date. Therefore, I would like you to do so.

"Do you want me to massage you too, Celia?"

"Huh? Is that me?

So Cletta also spoke to Celia.

He also wants to give Celia a massage.

But Celia looks a little subtle.

"But I'm not fighting today..."

"It's..."

Apparently, Celia didn't think she needed a massage herself because she wasn't fighting.

But the idea would be wrong.

"Celia, managing your health is important. Tomorrow, you fight too."

"... right. Mr. Cretta, could you do me a favor?

"Yes, I'll take care of it"

In my words, Cretta changed her mind.

Tomorrow, Celia will fight too. For that reason, there must be a great deal to keep your tiredness down today.

So, me and Celia were going to get a massage.

◇ ◇ ◇

I was getting a massage in my room.

However, this massage was more amazing than I thought.

"Mr. Slade, are you okay?

"Is there a problem, Mr. Slade?

"What do you say, Mr. Slade?

"Yeah, yeah, well, I'm fine..."

I'm getting a massage from three people: Cretta, Alma, and Shalol.

Anything, Alma and Shalol seem confident about the massage, and then Cretta invited the three of us to do it.

The result is a collaborative massage by the three of us. It feels good to be rubbed in various places, but do we need to do it for the three of us?

"I'll take that next one..."

"Right. Celia, heal your fatigue."

By the way, Celia and Mr. Orfina are watching this.

Celia, too, seems surprised by this massage. From the three of us, they do that, and so on, so it won't be impossible either.

"Ugh..."

But thanks to this massage, my body is going to get tired.

Tomorrow, we can expect it to be a tough fight. It's very important to rest well and prepare for tomorrow.

"Mr. Slade, tomorrow's fight, I'm sure you'll win"

"Oh, oh..."

Cretta today, she was very serious.

That may be a good thing, but I also think I miss my usual lighter tone a little.

But Cletta also knows me and Celia are holding back a big fight. So I guess it's getting serious.

"Ugh..."

"Ugh..."

That's what I thought. Cretta breathed in my ear.

That makes me tremble unexpectedly.

"Hey, what...?

"No, I'm kind of tired of serious mode"

"Tired of it..."

Apparently, Cretta's serious mode ends here.

But you probably did, because you guessed how I felt. Somehow, I feel that way.

"Cretta......"

"Yes?"

"... thanks"

"No."

That's how I got a massage.

◇ ◇ ◇

I was coming back to my room after the bath.

Today, I'm supposed to sleep separately, so I'm alone in the room.

"Ugh..."

I've been massaged, and my body was in pretty good shape.

This won't be a problem for tomorrow's fight.

After me, Celia got a massage, too, but I don't see it. Because the massage doesn't even take off my clothes, so I couldn't have seen it.

"Okay......"

With that in mind, I fall asleep in bed.

I'm feeling better, but I still had one thing to worry about.

That means if you can sleep today.

After the battle, it is somewhat more distracting. Besides, I exchanged my life with my human counterpart today. The daughter-in-law is immeasurable.

"Ha..."

In addition, this battle will continue tomorrow.

In that way, I'm worried about things.

"Yeah......?

I heard a noise in my ear like that.

That's the sound of knocking on the door of the room. Somehow, visitors can predict.

I'm gonna get out of bed and open the door in my room.

"Whoa... I knew it, Celia"

"Ah... Master, I'm sorry in the middle of the night"

When I opened the door, Celia stood.

This is exactly what I expected.

"Well... I'm anxious, I can't sleep..."

"Oh, okay. Then get in your room."

"Ah, yes. Sorry to disturb you."

Celia's first words alone gave me a rough idea of what she wanted to say.

I guess that means you want to sleep with me because you're anxious and can't sleep. This has happened before, so I could have predicted.

When I walked over to the bed, Celia followed me, so I'm pretty sure.

"Well..."

"And excuse me"

When I fell asleep in bed, Celia fell asleep beside it.

In the meantime, we'll face it.

"Master, excuse me. I suddenly visited..."

"I don't mind. I didn't seem too sleepy either..."

"Huh? Was your master anxious, too?

That's what Celia asked me to say.

That's the first time I've noticed it there. He said maybe he had some anxiety.

I only cared about Dawn, but there could have been that aspect.

"Maybe so... I'm not sure I wasn't anxious either"

"Really..."

So Celia's voice color, just a little brighter.

Perhaps you found me anxious, too, and relieved just a little.

That's a good thing. In my words, if Celia can be relieved, there's nothing better to do.

"Master... may I have a hug?

"Yeah?"

"Then I feel safe."

"... oh"

That's what they say, and I turn my hand around Celia's body.

Then Celia leans toward me.

"... Tomorrow's battle, I honestly think it's scary"

"... right"

"... but I will fight. And I will win."

"... oh"

Celia's whining voice was shaking just a little.

Tomorrow's battle, it must be natural to think it's scary.

Still, he decided to fight. The will is incredible.

"Celia would be fine."

"Master..."

"I can definitely win. I think so."

That's what I call Celia.

The words I said are from the bottom of my heart. Celia wouldn't beat those dark knights either.

"Right. My master will tell me. Besides, there's no way my apprentice won't respond."

"Oh yeah..."

"Ah..."

I stroke Celia's head slowly.

Celia is a child who wants to do that somehow. Besides, this might reassure you.

"Well, it's time for bed."

"Yes, that's right"

So, that's what I said.

It would be time to go to bed. I'm settling in, and Celia looks fine.

"Rest, Celia..."

"Yes. Good night, Master..."

This is how we fell asleep.
