Chapter 11 (1/2)
”Yuuto-sa on here…?!”
Anri's expression strains itself to the extre in a manner that I had never seen happen to her before I' they were an inch short of stopping my heartbeat
”Why would you lay your hands on a mere human woman instead of on me…?! I'm always prepared; you should know that…!”
That's what you're upset about?! Forget the fact that I've apparently whisked away soirl and hoarded her in the castle, that's what you're up in arms about?!
I suppose it really doesn't ry about; the situation's precarious enough either way If word gets around the castle that the High King showed so, it definitely won't end well
Isn't there so I can do?! I just have to find soives me an out…!
Just then, an idea pops into ht, that's the answer!
”Listen well, Anri You appear to have co”
”A… , Sire?”
”You see, you may think that I've been overcoht her here with me, but that's far from the truth”
”T-Then why…?!”
”You should already know that I plan to eradicate humanity some day But when all is said and done, I happen to be the cautious type I'd knock on stone bridges before even atte to cross the my plans into practice, I must first fairl is nothing but a sa!”
”…”
I give myself a minute to close my eyes It should be obvious that I don't have any actual plans of eradicating humanity, but there really isn't any other excuse I can come with
How's that? Ain't it majestic?!
Very timidly, I pry my eyes open
”Of course, then it all makes sense! Yuuto-sama, you never cease to amaze!”
The first thing that reatly reverent stare
My heartbeat caled to dodge this bullet Also, while I'd been harboring a certain impression for some time now, this just cements it all the more: Anri's sort of on the… simple side
”Not realizing your true intentions has brought my rudeness to the forefront For this sin, I shall -”
”You don't have to take your own life, alright?”
”Take my own - Whaaaaat?! J-Just how did you know?!”
Please, an eleht on to you by now
”But Yuuto-sama, why did you hide the human in your own closet? It's al seen…”
Ghurk!
”…He would be wasted on aas small and narrow as a closet is much more suitable for their kind”
”Of course That is indeed the case, My Lord”
I let out another sigh of relief Really, I can never tell if Anri's a bit dim or sharper than she lets on
”But still, Yuuto-saladly done so for you There really is no need to burden yourself…”
”No, I do nothureat joys of my life Besides, you and the others s you're tasked with Just leave these matters to me”
”Understood We are all undeserving of your great consideration, Yuuto-sama”
