Chapter 21 (2/2)
「Bath.」
I quickly pa.s.sed the side of Proudia which seemed to say something obscene.
Neither of them will defy me.
Sainos, Sedeia, and Sunny acted without an order but they did not rebelled against me.
However, something in my heart doesn't settle down.
The uneasiness like seeing the omen of collapse and it has spread on the depths of my chest.
As I was silently moving through the castle, everyone was quietly following me from behind.
I wonder whether I was a man who could normally talk about killing someone.
I wonder if the dilemma arises because my subordinate acted frantically.
This feeling of uneasiness must be greatly related to uneasiness of oneself.
I wonder if yesterday’s dinner was a trigger. Half of all the guild members gathered together in the dining room.
In the nearest seat, Eleanor sat down and looked at me who is eating with anxiety.
「Eleanor.」
「Ye, yes, master?」
Eleanor replied in a hurry when I called her name.
「Eleanor, if I were to order, how far can you follow? Can you say yes no matter how much unreasonable my demand is?」
When I asked her words that word that can't easily be digested, Eleanor straightened her back and turned her body to me.
「Of course, whatever the challenge, I'll accomplish it. If you ask the destruction of the world, it will perish. If you ask me to present my heart right now, I'll immediately take it out. Rather, such a question saddens me. I am in accordance with Ren Ren-sama, who is the creator of my life.」
Eleanor said so in a m.u.f.fled voice.
Her expression, not even a fragment of lie can be found.
「That’s right … I’m sorry.」
When I lower my head seriously, Eleanor wags her head.
「No master. I am happier here than living in a heavenly paradise just by staying with my master. So, please ask anything. Eleanor will grant all the wishes of master. Of course, the others feel the same.」
Eleanor said so and turned her face around. I was also tempted and turned my eyes to the surroundings, everyone in the dining room unexpectedly was watching me.
「…I see. It's a blessing.」
When I said that, Eleanor stood up and raised a gla.s.s.
「A toast to swear fidelity to master.」
When Eleanor said those words, everyone raised a gla.s.s at once.
And the cheers roar.
Each and everyone of the characters I created whom I lavish great care and raised.
I remember all their name, race, job, skills, equipment, and fighting style.
If I won't believe them, who will?
Seeing everyone’s smile, I felt my anxiety fade away.
But in the words that came from Eleanor’s lips, I felt something was caught in my heart.
What have been caught?
After all, I never remembered it during the meal.
After taking a bath, Eleanor walked along the hallway and followed to the bedroom as usual.
However, today's scenery was different from usual.
It was because there were figures next to the door before the going to the bedroom.
Sainos, Sedeia, and Sunny.
「My lord! I'm truly sorry for today!」
Sainos lowered his heads, the other two also lowered their heads.
「Ah, it’s fine, don't worry about it. You acted that way thinking of me. Well, take a rest and prepare for tomorrow.」
When I said so as I pa.s.sed by, I felt a sign of something terrible behind me.
「You guys… What the h.e.l.l is this…?」
It was not the level of DOS, but it felt like Eleanor's voice echoes from nethermost h.e.l.l from behind.
***TN: ドス(DOS) - Disk Operating System. Probably because the author considered DOS as something that is lower than h.e.l.l? I don't know in what aspect though.***
I opened the door to the bedroom to shake off the fear and fled into my suite room.
Eleanor-san, you’re so scary.
AN: At this rate, it is impossible to build a country.
I have received a lot of such messages.
I might have changed the t.i.tle to one month?
At that time, everyone, please throw stones together.
I'll avoid them with effort!
