Not too much time passed after Kyoya and Xaya disappeared from the second floor, yet their eyes had seen many powerful adventurers and facilities, which were their lodging in the Grooma Kingdom.
Of course, to have their own place in such a kingdom, the adventurers either had to be in the strong party or be influential enough to get one for themselves. This time, Kyoya and Xaya were in the former.
A powerful party that has taken the residency in this special place.
If not Kyoya's vulnerable state, then maybe he would be allowed to go around with his wife. Though it also wouldn't be really wise considering that his Xaya had enough charm to mesmerize anyone.
For now, the husband settled himself in one of Rosa's rooms. Her house was two flat with rather lonely vibes. It was because of the lack of furniture except for the necessary ones. The sight of the empty corridor was still deeply etched in Kyoya's mind.
And now, his room just had the bed, one desk, and opened windows to allow the fresh air to take care of the dust. It could be seen through the sunrays how it dances around. However, as Kyoya's eyes went forward, Rosa's presence entered his sight. She was close to the window, enjoying the breeze that was caressing her blonde hair.
Not even once she let the husband go alone in this place. What was even more impressive was that Rosa didn't falter despite Xaya's eyes always enveloping her body!
Her blue eyes met with the husband's eyes then.
"Do you feel a little worse? I have called one of the known healers already. Just withstand it."
"It's-"
"The husband won't lose against mere poison! No need for you to worry, filth."
"I am not speaking with you."
"You are now. Don't look at my husband!"
There weren't any filthy vibes coming off from Rosa; even her eyes looking at Kyoya was clear and beautiful as usual. Despite knowing this, Xaya just couldn't allow her to come closer and stood vigilant with more threatening eyes than ever before.
However, Xaya couldn't tell that Rosa had been aiming at her just now. It was so obvious that a yandere wife would go at her that Rosa even spoke with a little softer voice. This all ended up with Xaya raising her voice.
The reason for Rosa taunting her was inexplicable. She herself would usually just mind her business, but the secret was that she had been listening to most of the conversations between the couple on her mission.
There were times where Rosa simply couldn't because of her sword sinking in other's flesh or due to the couple's house ability. It was hard to listen when both of them were inside! Regardless of that, Rosa felt like she should help the husband a little with this yandere wife.
He has been doing his best to change her, and the progress could be seen with naked eyes. However, most of the time, this progress became insignificant due to the appearance of others.
With Josef, it has changed a little. A yandere wife shared the meal with him and somehow accepted him, but he was still filth in name, and it was just a dinner. But what about women? That's where things change way too much.
Even if Xiaoxiao spent some time with Xaya, the orange-haired lady was focused on the adventure and helping others. With the small event that happened between them, Xaya became closer to Xiaoxiao, but this all became negligent when she went on her own adventure.
"You seem like a nanny, not a wife."
"Hah? What did you say, filth?!"
"Didn't you hear? I said, you seem like a nanny. If you don't get it, then check the dictionary."
"Bitch! I will seriously kill you!"
Just the appearance of another woman caused Xaya to go all mad. Back then, Rosa said 'the husband' simply because Xaya has been calling him like that for the most of the time. In her secret spies, Rosa also ended up calling Kyoya like that mostly. It was just a mistake, a blunder said without any deep emotions behind it.
And yet, yandere wife was ready to kill her and separate the husband from the rest of the world. It was so stupid, so pitiful.
However, the husband has been doing his best to teach the wife common sense.
Rosa has seen many of this, so she was ready to help him in his stay here. But more than that, Xaya's yandere strength was really irresistible. It taunted Rosa back then when Xaya rushed after Miss Chloe… If not the poison sealing her concept, Rosa would willingly fight against Xaya to just try her strength.
Right now, it was impossible, though.
"Do you want to kill me?"
"Filth!"
"Then you can try later. For now, we have to take care of Kyoya."
"..."
Her husband could clearly feel the anger of yandere wife. She was shaking so much, her clenched fists letting out sounds of her torment. This stopped when the doors opened, and the man with doctor-like clothes entered inside.
"Hello, hello."
"Hello… Just do your job and leave."
"Hehe! Miss Rosa is so cold to me as usual! What a pity! I would like to see your smile at least once!"
"..."
The healer swung his arm, forcing his white robe to go around like some cape. He then casually strode to Kyoya's side. A small chair appeared out of nowhere, then with a loud thud, the man crossed his legs.
"Let's see, let's see… It was poison from Trute Household, right? Ayayaya~~ I have to use a rather costly one to get rid of theirs!"
His name was Frane, the believer of one goddess whose healing abilities were related to the flowers. However, he didn't really take out any flowers or medicine made of those, but a small plate.
On this plate, there was a jelly-like liquid that was being squashed by the man's item.
'I am supposed to eat this?'
The jelly was in black and looked disgusting.
No one would really eat such things willingly! Kyoya's eyes even turned to his wife to see whether she saw some anomaly within those. Her eyes were dilated slightly without any signs of threat. This meant that there was nothing wrong with this black jelly liquid…
"Here."
"T-thank you?"
"No need, no need! Haha!"
