I really did think the novel was a wonderful one, but the l-lewder parts embarrassed me and made it a bit difficult for me to read
「Your lunch today is a Muroo Beef Steak, a Potato Potage, and a saladfor you as dessert once you’ve finished」
I e table upon which one of the ed my meal and sat myself down in the seat closest to the sill Sori had been working to take care ofher job well

「Please excuse us, as ill now be leaving you to your business Do let theyou happen to need」
Sori left the roo the exact same statement she always did
I took the teddy bear toaround with it and stroking its fur to satisfaction before finally doing with it as I had all the others and turning it into one of my room’s decorations
