Chapter 192 I Flipped a Switch (2/2)
Her silver eyes that shed some tears stared at me, and after a few moments of silence, she spoke.
[……Kaito-sama, I will remember this favor….. for the rest of my life. Even if you don’t think of yourself as such, for me, I still think that you’re our saviour.]
[E- Errr, I feel that you’re kind of making it sound very impressive……]
[No, I may be hesitating on which words to say to express my gratitude, but I can unhesitatingly say that my thoughts about you come from my heart. I love you second in the world. I will put you second only to Kuromu-sama.]
[………………..]
What the heck is this, I’m kind of feeling a chill similar to how I felt when I first met Isis-san…… I don’t really know why, but did I flip some sort of switch from Ein-san?
Her expression still held the same coolness as usual, but her eyes kind of looks like it’s filled with an absurd amount of passion in it……
[……Simple it may be, I’ve finished telling you how I feel at this moment.]
[Errr, ah, yes. I- I understand?]

[……If there’s something troubling you, you can always call for me. If there’s someone troubling you…… I will immediately erase them.]
[……Y- Y- Y- Yes!]
She started saying some absurdly disturbing stuff!? I don’t know if what she’s saying is just a joke or not but…… I’m afraid of thinking that Ein-san is really going to mercilessly erase someone with just my words.
W- Well, it’s not like I have any enemies, so maybe, i- it should be alright, I guess?
Removing her grip on my clothes and giving me a deep, respectful bow, Ein-san looked at me again.
[……Kaito-sama, I’ve heard that you like ripple pie, is that true?]
[Eh? Ah, yes.]
[Well then, meager it may be, please receive these……]
[Eh? Wha!? Wait, E- Ein-san!?]
Right after I nodded, Ein-san took a box out of nowhere that looks like a cake box……. or rather, she’s just giving me a mountain of them!?

[……U- Ummm, I’ll just ask just in case…… but these are?]
[Ripple pies. It might be presumptuous of me, but I thought of offering these as my gratitude.]
[……Errr, how many of these are there?]
[Approximately around “1000”.]
[A thousand!?]
A thousand ripple pies!? Didn’t you prepare way too much!? Eh? The heck is this? It kind of looks like a wall of boxes already though…… Seriously?
[If you need more, I can always make them for you.]
[A- Ahhh, errr, yes. Thank you.]
W- Well, I have my magic box, so they won’t get moldy…… but even if I eat a ripple pie once a day, that would mean these are more than 3 years worth of ripple pies…… Ein-san, are you not aware of the word “moderation”?
[U- Ummm, Ein-san…… Do you know what moderation means?]

[But of course. Compromise, moderation…… It’s an indulgence that I, as a maid, must eliminate.]
[……Okay.]
This woman is totally hopeless!!! In a different way from Shiro-san, I also can’t talk to this person at all!!!
As the dumbfounded me silently put away the ripple pie into my magic box, Ein-san politely thanked me before leaving.
Yep, I feel like I’m caught up in something once again.
[Well~~ As expected of Kaito-san, I never expected that you would also catch Ein-san into your basket……]
[Hey, Alice…… Ein-san, she was just joking, right?]
[No, not at all. Ein-san basically doesn’t bend on anything that she decides for herself. If she’s saying she’s going to prioritize Kaito-san as second in the world, that’s really what she’s going to do…… In a way, you can say she’s a certain type of yandere, you catch my drift? If she sees someone as Kaito-san’s enemy, without any hesitation or compassion, she will erase them immediately.]
[The heck is that, that’s scary.]
Hearing Alice’s words, who appeared as if it’s something natural, I felt the same chill run down my back again as before…… Well, I’m really starting to feel like something outrageous just happened.

Dear Mom, Dad——– Ein-san has come to give her thanks regarding Kuro, but there was something around the second half of what she said that sounds disturbing. Yep, how should I say this—— I probably flipped a switch.
And thus, next chapter, Sieg’s arc starts…… The theme is “A trip for two”!
