At the time when we return to the party hall, we can’t find Tre and Aura here.

“…… Ha………”

But I still not losing my hope yet.

Perhaps, they get tired after dancing, then they decide to walking around inside the castle like us.

“…… Heal…………. Heal……”

I search the two of them and repeating applying recovery magic to myself several times.

……I know that the possibility they are here is low.

Because, the maid in this hall, keep unpleasantly looking at me.

Maybe the meaning of that gaze is…….

However, I had no choice except to bet on such a wish.

“………… Heal…… Hah………”

I can hear my footsteps, there’s no one in the corridor.

“Heeaaal!!”

And then, the impatience is taking over me, there’s only a sound from my yelling, echoing inside the long corridor --.


“……”

For how long have I been running?

After I running around the castle while applying recovery magic, finally, I came back to the party hall.

“……”

I walking with shaking feet, and approach a man in the hall.

“…… What happened here......?” 

In the end I need ask someone, I know that I should asking the people from the beginning.

“Eh, ah, actually, someone have been kidnapped……”

As I thought…….

I clicking my tongue reflexively, my anger is driving me mad. But I should endure it and listen until the end.

“If I remember correctly, I think it was a girl with read hair and the girl with light brown hair……. Anyone can’t stop it because it’s too sudden……”

……It’s regrettable, the only thing matching is just the hair color.

“…… ah, if I remember correctly they talking about something like smell, eh I wonder if that is correct……?”

That, perhaps about Lily’s scent. 

Since along the way they sleep together yesterday, both of them should have Lily’s scent on them.

“…… Thank you”

Inside of myself, there’s a big emotion begin to rise up, and I know what it is.

“Oh, there you are”

“……?”

Suddenly, there’s a sound coming from behind me.

When I turn around, there is King Ethique standing there.

“Ha, King-sama!?”

The noble who was talking with me before, suddenly lower his head, and I’m not an exception now.

“…… what’s wrong……?”

“Ah, just now there’s a demon familiar come and kidnap some people, did you already know? ”

“Ah, I know”

A demon familiar, this is the first time I hear about this but, that’s not important now.

“…… you hate it……?”

And then, Ethique look directly into my eyes.

Most likely, it’s because my face become serious.

Ethique move his eyes to not see my face.

But, I understand. I completely understand.

The word that Ethique will say next.

But I don’t want to hear that.

“…… master, it’s your companion”

........................
..................
............
......

After that, I don’t remember what he say.

When I notice it, I was lying on the bed, and grasp the futon thightly.

“…… Aah”

I feel that my eyes become wet.

And my voice become hoarse, and my throat feels weird.

“…… He…al”

I chanting healing healing magic to heal my voice that become hoarse.

“……Haa……”

Most likely I have troubled Ethique here.

I feel bad about it…….

However, I can’t continue like this.

I wake up from the futon and approach the door to leave this room.

“Nest-, are you wake up-?”

Exactly at that time, there’s Lily came in with the meal, open the door and enter into the room.

“Ah, you wake up Nest-!”

“A, ah……”

I don’t understand what I hear from Ethique before, I don’t even understand what we talk before.

“I make this for Nest, do you want to eat?” (Tn: ugh I can’t make it cuter. Actually, the raw is more cuter. Sorry about that.)

Lily urge me to come back to the bed, and I abide it.

“Fuh- fuh-”

Lily blow the food that she carry.

“Okay, aan”

And then, I try to eat it just like that.

“A, Aan”

…… ah, it’s delicious. As I thought, everything that Lily make is delicious.

“Eh this is wrooong!!”

What am i doing?

I should try to confirm about the information right now, Aura and Tre has been kidnaped you know!?

I don’t have a spare time to do this right now!!!

There mus be something I could do right now!

And that is—

“Ah, Lily”

“Hmm, what-?”

She get surprised because I’m suddenly yelling, then she reply with a little confusion.

“Lily you are--”

I heard this before.

But at that time various troubled occurred, so I can’t hear it in the end.

“—demon, right?”

This time, it’s different from before, it’s not “are you a demon?”, there’s a lot of possibility this is true, finally I will hear the truth from Lily
