『There is only one possibility left now. Have you cleaned up properly?』
[I was in a hurry to return to the capital back then…]
[Fumu fumu, so this is Fate’s room.]
[We should not! Eris-sama, let us leave.]
[But we’ve just entered. Shouldn’t we look around for a bit? Don’t you think so too, Mimir?]
[Yes, as a maid working for this castle, it should be my top priority.]
[If you insist on leaving, then maybe Roxy should just wait outside.]
[Why only me! That is not going to happen!]
When I grabbed the door handle,
[Just admit it, Roxy also wants to take a look at Fate’s room, right?]
[That is…]
[Eeee~, then tell me why did you keep taking glances at the surroundings since we entered this room?]
[Wha!?]
[I couldn’t enter…]
『Don’t be such a dimwit. Just get inside already. Being so cowardly, and you still consider yourself the wielder of this Me!?』
[Shu, shut up.]
『Can you just man up already?』
[I know.]
When I finally opened the door, the girls who had been talking to each other earlier suddenly turned their gaze towards me at once.
[Arara… The room owner has finally appeared.]
[Fate-sama, is there something wrong?]
[Something wrong, you ask? This is my room.]
[Is that the case? I didn’t know]
[How shameless.]
[Fai, did you… hear what we talked about earlier?]
[…..yeah.]
[Uuuu…..]
[Eavesdropping is not good.]
[Are you really one to talk?]
[What do you even mean?]
[You are in my room, you know?]
[I don’t see any problem with that.]
[This is a pretty comfy bed. I’ll really get a good sleep tonight.]
[You… don’t tell me.]
[Ahaha, would you look at that! Fate’s troubled expression really is fun to see. Don’t you agree, Mimir?]
[Indeed it is.]
Mimir repeatedly nodded. What a nice teamwork! I guess the two really got along well during our trip to Hauzen.
[Please spare me.]
[What’s wrong? You suddenly become pale]
[Arara, that’s not good. I better take care of Fate-sama properly tonight.]
[It’s because of you people! Now get out of my room already!]
[ [ Eeee ] ]
[Fate, found you! I wanna play too!]
[My rooooom!!]
[Ahaha…. Look at the bright side, it’s more airy now. I’m off to the guest room then]
[…..I’ll go find broom and dustpan.]
[Snow, you can’t just break the door like that. Before this too, you also broke through the bathhouse’s wall.]
[Ah! I forgot… sorry]
This careless fellow! I wanted to pat her head, but if I did, the castle would end up full of holes. It would be a major crisis if the newly renovated castle collapsed so quickly.
This little girl tends to forget other things when she’s already focused on something. At first I thought it’s related to her amnesia. But having stayed with her all the time, I came to realize that it’s just the way she is.
For instance, even if she remembered not to break the door this time, she’ll forget it some other time. And because she’s an Area E already, her childlike appearance was very deceptive.
I suddenly felt a very strong tug on my arm, as Snow called out to me.
[Hey hey, I want to explore the castle!]
[I need to talk with Seto shortly, can we do it later?]
[I want now! Now, now!]
Fuuu~, even if I insisted on talking with Seto now, having Snow continuing to act like this would only hinder us. I should just take her for a small walk around the castle now. She’ll fall asleep on her own when she feels tired.
[Okay, okay]
[Yay! Come on!]
[Kyaah!!]
[Fai, do not surprise me like that]
[Then, Roxy, what are you doing there?]
[Tha, that is…]
I talked to Roxy. But when I looked at her in the face, she turned away from me.
[I was just curious about what Eris-sama and Mimir are doing. Then I heard a loud crash… it would be weird if I didn’t come to check.]
[Indeed it is.]
[Until then, I think I’ll have to rest in the guest room.]
[If so, there is one free bed in my room, is it not convenient?]
[Do you really want me to sleep in the same room as yours?]
[Why of course! Eris-sama and Mimir are too dangerous if left alone! And did you forget about that?]
[Nn? About what?]
[Studying. I once said that I would teach you personally. There are various things that we had to postpone due to all the travelling. So I will make sure that we catch up in no time.]
[Castle exploring!]
[Right. What about you, Roxy?]
[There is no helping it, I guess. However, I will start teaching you at night, so you better be prepared.]
[…..I understand, teach.]
[Good!]
