The Struggle of Returning to The Other World

When Noel instantly confirmed my presence, he pulled his lips together for a serious look.... seriously or rather the comfort of being stared at through it. Scary.

"Well, Noel. Why are you here?

"When I heard you called Ichii's daughter to my room, I hurried over."

Noel took his gaze off of me and turned to Master Ardina, who stood up in surprise.

Keep walking straight to her side.

"Why did you do this? I didn't expect you to invite your daughter into your own private room."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I really wanted to talk to Mr. Hulka."

Noel doesn't break his grim look at Ardina.

"Why the hell, with her?

"It's..."

Master Ardina has been silent.

Apparently, he kept it a secret from Noel that he was eating our lunch. Right, Noel's a pretty solid guy, so I would never have forgiven him if I'd known. Besides, I know full well that I'm scared when I piss him off.

I felt a little airy, and I was in my seat for the most part.

As for the witch and the knight standing, of course I should get up too, but I just want to beg your pardon for moving so badly right now and pointing the two consciousnesses at us. I had killed my breath with the intention of becoming a roadside stone because of the slight expectation that I wish the conversation would come together between Master Ardina and Noel as it were.

"... sorry. I've had a meal from her working fixer."

Master Ardina whispered, whispering that he was not likely to delude himself. It's like a puppy pissed off by its owner.

"Of her fixer?

"Yep. Recently at a fixer who has come to deliver me to the soldier's training ground..."

"I know that"

Thoroughly truncated by Noel, Lady Ardina bowed her head more and more. It's kind of adorable even as that figure invites pity. Here's something that comes to my chest all the time.

"Dear Noel, I brought your lunch on an arbitrary basis."

Mr. Sotini, who seems to have missed him, stopped being a stone statue and sent out a helpship.

"That's not what Master Ardina said. I'm responsible."

"Ma, wait. No, I asked Sotini. I was the one who asked you to call Mr. Hulka here today. So there's nothing wrong with Sotini or Haruka."

"Dear Ardina, don't ask me that. I'm the one who said it."

"I'm not talking about who's not bad or bad."

Noel shrugged away.

Poor female opponent, no mercy anywhere. It is the same.

"What I am saying is that I would like Master Ardina to have a greater sense of being a witch. Sure, this girl only looks like a very regular fixer clerk with no back table. But maybe he's trying to get close to you in bad faith. Our escorts serve your side, assuming that's the worst case scenario. that in an arbitrary manner, such"

"... right, I'm so sorry. But really, Mr. Hulka is not bad. If you're angry, just against me."

Master Ardina, while sheltering me, honestly apologized.

But.

Shouldn't I say a little too much?

While I erased the signs, I felt a flurry of anger against Noel.

Even Master Ardina is a normal girl.

Sometimes, there will be times when you want to chat casually with normal girls my age. But since I know and am convinced that such a whispering thought is only a hope for the witch, I wonder if you have only tried this once, a small adventure.

I can't believe you put that on your head.

Besides, because you care about people, it's totally other people's behavior.

Noel doesn't have enough compassion for Master Ardina.

"- Um..."

Finally, I couldn't bear to raise my voice.

Everyone's gaze converges on me.

Especially Noel's gaze and so forth, that was the momentum that seemed to shoot me to death.

"... uh. You don't have to say it so strongly, I don't know if it's okay... or... thank you."

You were scared of Noel's gaze when he spoke so eloquently about keeping his mouth shut that I opened up in such a pitiful voice.

But no matter how angry you are, Noel is Noel. I reconsidered that I would not be killed, and I looked straight at Master Ardina again.

"I was very happy to talk to Master Ardina today. I've always thought of Master Ardina as someone on the cloud, but I didn't, and I realized she was a normal, kind one woman person. Noel… your anger is natural, but I appreciate this opportunity."

With the civilian body, it could have become a pretty great thing to say. But Master Ardina laughed happily. That alone makes me a saved thought, too.

But it was an utterly powerless illustration of Noel's anger.

"Anyway, let's hope she gets home. I'll take you to the exit."

Whoa. I swallowed up the word at your place.

"No, Noel, you don't have to send her."

"That's right. I am responsible for sending Mr. Hulka."

I guess you thought you couldn't leave me to Noel, who looked angry from anywhere. Master Ardina and Mr. Sotini desperately tried to stop him. But Noel is not a gentleman driven by the words of two weak women.

"She has a lot to ask. - So, do it with Hulka. Let's go."

"... Yes..."

I noticed early.

What the hell are you thinking?

As I left the room, Noel's thankful sermon flew in quickly.

I guess it means there's a heap of things to say around going all the way to the entrance and exit of the residential area. You said you hadn't seen him that night, but what is this situation?

"Didn't Lord Ordis tell you to be careful around witches?

"... I didn't think this was gonna happen either"

I grumbled and grumbled that there was no popularity (one person) around. Of course, it's not Noel who misses asking me that.

"Lord Sotini asked me to deliver lunch. Right. You didn't know she was a priest with Aldina."

"I didn't know it at first. Ever since I found out, it's too late."

"I should have severed the relationship when I found out, even if I couldn't. You don't understand one thing I said that night."

Noel's tone is badly irritating.

"You don't have to be so angry..."

"Whose fault do you think you're so mad at me?"

What, excuse me.

"... at least don't hit Master Ardina"

"There's a problem with that one"

No, he's a relentless man everywhere.

From the side, Noel and Ardina, who would be the best beautiful couple in the country, thought the reality might be that a mother who is loud (groomed) and a daughter who is afraid of her mother but still loves her. That must be proof that you two have a good relationship. What makes me feel a little hung up is, well, I want you to forgive me.

"You really can't leave me alone. You don't know what you're gonna do."

But Noel was right, I was surprised myself. I had no idea you were going to have tea with Master Ardina this morning.

This time it didn't happen to matter, but in some cases it is possible that the Aldina-like faction was calling for his life. It is certainly my downfall to be complete that this thing has gone out to such a place. If you don't mind enough to meet Mr. Sotini in the visiting room, I was overthinking it with ease. I'm really reflecting there.

"Speaking of which,"

I remember the tea party between the bundles.

"Dear Aldina, you seem a little tired."

Somehow, I wanted to tell Noel.

But the way you say you're tired, there may be a narrative.

She was beautiful, gentle and graceful everywhere.

That is the "Master Ardina" itself, a rare witch, rumored by everyone in the city.

But the act of secretly inviting me, a civilian, into a private room and talking about myself with great pleasure, in itself, could not help but remind her that it was “fatigue” or “loneliness” that cast a shadow on her mind. Isn't that all Aldina hungers for in simple contact with people?

"I'm sure you want friends who can easily talk to the public."

"You stay down."

"I know that."

Hopefully, I'll continue to meet with Master Ardina from time to time and be the person to talk to. Of course, that's an impossible story. The closer I get to her, the more dangerous my body and her position become.

"... I intend to understand Master Ardina's solitude. But even if I do, it's not an easy question. That will have experience with you. We just have to take the time to get used to living in the royal palace one by one."

To Noel's words, I nodded.

Well, Noel knows. I have a good look at Ardina.

"More than that, I've told you many times, it's about you"

Ugh, back to that story again?

Noel instantly caught his eye when he noticed a tedious color floating in my face.

"Hi, you don't seem to be in enough crisis. I'm not what I'm supposed to be. I hate trouble, and if it's enough to stick my neck in, I'll let it go. But when I look at your swallowing, I can't look and pretend not to look. By and large, what are you going to do when your own life is at stake?

"No, I feel like I'm in danger..."

"If I had, I wouldn't be flustered into a cleric's quarters or anything like that"

It's not even a gurgling sound.

"In the past, my hard work was still somewhat easier because I was right next to you. But not now. I can't be on your side at that moment when you're blurring and stepping into danger. So extra..."

"It's okay!"

I raised my voice to block Noel.

"It may be dangerous from Noel's point of view, but I'll make it right. I learned a lot about today. So you can stand around better tomorrow. Don't worry about Noel."

"Hulka"

Noel called my name to praise.

But I didn't turn around and on the contrary sped up my legs going down the hallway.

It's already coming back near the entrance to the settlement.

I began to see you and the other priests.

I ran away.

If it's a novel from Noel, I can listen to as much as I want.

But no kind words. That shouldn't be.

I can't explain it well, but I shouldn't.
