Volume 8 Intermission 7 (1/2)

Intermission: SeraThere are unfamiliar h I've been warned about this, a my relative

I was kidnapped andI blocked my throat and tried to vomit it out many times, but they forced me to s some kind of medicine, and I lost consciousness then

The next ti, and the face of headthis place is familiar, since it's the sanctuary of Tenion temple here

I tried asking the details of the incident, but since the headis already over There is already no one that will har my body to head miko-sa

◇

I had a dreaht

A drea a silverwith the tone of voice I've never heard before is certainlyyour arms that much If this wasn't a dream, I would have jumped off the top of a tower

Ah, I' naked

I'ony of embarrassment inside my dream

◇

There has never been a day where I cannot wait to wake up from sleep like this day

It's too much even for a dream

It can't be helped if I get depressed Let's renew my mood and work hard

First, it's theduty!

”Ah Sera You've been instructed by head ic for 4-5 days Please help with the food distribution for a while”

”Yes, chief miko-sama”

Taking out the wind out of my sail all of a sudden

It's really regrettable

◇

Mou! It's terrible today

There are always people co the food distribution, but just howto disturb us until they're satisfied It see the tournament, but this year, due to the des of Liberty] spreading preposterous ru their excessive anxiety with violence

The aunty ere helping with the distribution got hurt when she ashi+ng her face I can heal her bodily injuries, but I cannot do that to the wounded heart I can only calm her down at most

If a lizardkin woirl called Arisa didn't help to subdue the quarrel, the food distribution ht have been canceled today Since there are a lot of children who depend their life from this food distribution, I didn't want to cancel it

”Thank you, we're saved”

”It's nothing, even master would surely tell us to help people in trouble”

Master?

I asked that girl called Lulu out of curiosity, turned out the girls are slaves of a honorary noble Aren't they looking too neat for slaves?

I wasn't only surprised by their neat appearances, but the apparent lack of degenerate iirls who look so cheerful and free from worry are slaves

As I was distributing the food, I listened about their irl called Lulu It's as if he's her lover--no, it's as if she's talking about her unrequited love, that kind of pure love For sohtly, yes, only very slightly envious

I wonder that's why?

When I on, it didn't feel like the first time

”Um, we've met somewhere haven't we?”

I involuntarily said such thing, I add another words in a hurry to varnish over it

”No, this is the first time we've met Sersama”

”Is it so I wonder”

But, it feels strange when it's denied Are we really not acquainted?

I feel like I've seen him somewhere

I can't remember

”Sersa for the food”

Err, did I perhaps keep staring at chevalier-sama's face?

It's e at a man in public, she'll scold me No, that person will surely teases me happily

It seem chevalier-sa with the works of the aunties who are co on air

”You're pretty good despite being a noble If you don't succeed your house, how about working in our shop?　I'll let hter becomes your bride”

”N, no, you can't”

Even though the aunty was just playing around like always, I was surprised at my own reflexive reaction When s, I start laughing

I hter fill my heart

This is the first time my heart is excited like this

Even though he helped even until the clean-up, since I was surprised with the sudden arrival of Rin-anesama, I wasn't able to say thank you

I wonder if he thought of irl?

◇

The second tiratulate Tisrad-oniisa

However, I wonder what is this irritated feeling

I wonder why issurrounded by younger girls

”It's been a while, Satou-sama”

I don't knowchevalier-sairls around chevalier-saather at me, is this person perhaps popular?

That can't be it right?

I unintentionally thought of a rude thing, but I understood the reason after I ate the snacks that he had h the castle's head chef is excellent, I feel that this snack is incomparable

I feel happy with every bite

It's such feeling

When I see chevalier-sa froer Maybe I should invite him to a dance?

”You're quite popular aren't you, Satou-sama”
