103 CHAPTER VI MONITORING (2/2)

”That's ......... let me think about it for a minute. Not right away.

I'm just saying, don't do it. Well, that makes things easier, doesn't it?

Okay. So, how do I do that?

”Look for his weaknesses. Even the most perfect of people have things they don't want you to do.

Well, there is, but ....... I've done more than enough of that measure, okay?

”Okay, okay.

Then it's all yours. And please don't go behind my back.　'Gotts?'

Oh, so this is Gotts?

Just by looking at what we've seen so far, I can see why the maids don't like him.

Yes, of course.

”Because killing you would be so easy, right?　You're going to have to think hard about that area, okay?'

I'm not going to make it when I'm doubting my man.

''Yes, sir!

'I see. ....... Can you send the information on these men to the Red Golem?

I asked the question and got a ”yes” sign.

Okay, send it in.

As soon as I gave the order to the monitor, I sent a telepathic message to the Red Golem.

”This is an order to every Red Golem in the castle. When you find the man I just sent you, take him into custody and lock him up. And report him to me as soon as you find him.

Okay, that's one or two less enemies. All right, let's move on. You got any more footage?

Yes, and then 20 minutes ago.

And the image that began to flow was blurred and my vision was blurred.

”Ah~~. The bath feels good.

The place looks like a bath.

And in there are Sherry, Lena, and Belle.

That's true. After all, Leo did just remodel it.

”Right. You have one of these at Leo's house, right?　Is Bell in there every day?'

Apparently, the three of us are soaking it up in good company .

This is the one ...... that needs to be turned off, right? .......

But the monitor brought it out, so ...... it's no use, right?

Yeah, I think I have some information I need.

Well, it's not possible. I'm a maid, sir. I don't get to use the bathroom very often.

”Seldom?　Does that mean you've been in it before?

''Yes, sir. Once a month, there's a certain day when the servants are free to go in, and since they can't all go in, they go in in turn.'

”Right. ....... Leo is a cheapskate. You should have let him use it every day.'

Yes, I'm sorry to be so stingy.

No, Master Leo says I can use it whenever I want. But he apologizes for that, so we'll have to do it once a month.

''That's right . Hah~ And even so, I'm glad to think that I'll be able to take this bath every day for the next two months.''

”'Yes. You're gonna be here for the next two months? I hope that's nothing.

'Yes. What are we supposed to do?　Honestly, our presence makes it hard for Leo-kun to focus on his lord's work, and ....... Perhaps Leo-kun is still doing something to protect us alone.''

I'm really sorry. I'm looking in the bathroom.

”Well, ......, what can I do to help?

That's easy.

When they were troubled, Belle quipped.

''Huh?''

'It's best that Cheryl and Leena help ease Leo's fatigue. Master Leo is a spoiled child. He can't help but feel lonely when he's not with you.　And even without the two of you, Leo-sama is still going to have a lot of trouble in the future, right?　Then isn't it our duty to get Leo-sama, who is working hard for the next two months, to spoil us?''

”Yeah, yeah, ......

”It's a classic: ......

They seemed to be overwhelmed by Belle's words .

I felt like I lost to Belle after hearing her words at ....... You know Leo better than I do.'

”Yes, sir. You've been watching Leo for far too long.

''I don't think that's true either . I think Leo-sama hides his weaknesses from the two of you because he really likes you both. I just want to be my cool self in front of the two of you.

I didn't mean to do that. .......

Are you trying to be cool ...... me?

'Oh, yeah, ...... I'm starting to feel like an idiot for being so jealous of Belle.

It's true.

”Oh, no!　Don't worry about it.

”Mm-hm. Really, I'm so stupid. Really, I'm sorry for ever.

With that, Shelly bowed to Belle.

”Oh, please lift your head. I'm the one who's sorry for the misunderstanding.

Bell, too, bowed her head in a hurry.

''That's not true. It was just my own fault and I was angry. Besides, hearing Belle's words, I think I understand why Leo likes Belle so much.

''That's right. Come to think of it, how did Belle become Leo-kun's personal maid?''

'Well, ...... when I heard that the Forster family was looking for a new maid, I applied for the job and was instantly hired by the head maid who expected Leo-sama to like beastmen.

”Leo likes beastmen?

Also, a word that could be misunderstood: .......

Hey, just because the ears and tail bother me, doesn't mean I like all the beastly girls, right?

''Yes, it seems that the Forster family has had a soft spot for beastly women since the days of the heroes. In particular, they thought that Reo-sama, who has the same personality as the brave man, would definitely like her.

'Oh, right: ...... I wonder if I should have these ears or a tail?'

Then Shelly began to touch Belle's tail and ears.

She's cute. It's true that you want to keep her close to you.

Leena, along with Shelly, started touching Belle.

'Hey!　Both of you!　I'm tickled!'

Yeah, let's just turn it off.

So I reached for the monitor and ...... grabbed my shoulder as hard as I could.

I turned around and saw ...... the three of them standing there after their baths.

Oh, by the way, I remember ...... this was a recording.

”Leo-sama, we're glad you're worried about us, but ...... no peeking, okay?

Belle couldn't have been more smiling, but her ...... eyes weren't smiling at all .

''Ha, yes ......''

Then Bell's sermon began.

Bell's sermon was so frightening that the two of us who were watching behind him were slowly drifting apart.
