Chapter 124

As if she had already been told the story in the bath, Cheryl naturally came to the room where Asilie was staying.

Sure enough, Sheryl’s pickled radish, her passive soaring high in the sky, was drooping. I try to show off as much as possible and act moderately, but it’s already been 2 years since I’ve been with him.

“There were some results... don’t do it.”

And that goes for him too. While talking while watching me approaching with strides, he immediately grasps the situation and cuts it off. But there’s no way.

“Oh hey, look at this. The eyebrows that were always soaring up proudly are drooping again and becoming sullen.”

“Don’t be sullen. Don’t do it.”

“You’d better fool the ghost.”

She put her hand between her armpits and lifted her shoulder, forcibly evolving Cheryl into Long Cat Cheryl. Even though he is exercising and has strong muscles, it is strangely light, so I can easily lift it up to my chest without using magic.

It would be unimaginable to other users, but in the first place, my origin was Ragnis’ benefactor and Sir Ekaf’s guest.

Even if she voluntarily maintains her life as a butler, that fact does not change, and Cheryl tends to adjust her behavior accordingly. I don’t know if it’s because he’s a kid who knows how to thoroughly play a concept, even changing his tone of voice depending on the situation in the first place.

Anyway, outside of the butler job, it is said that the relationship is no different from an ordinary friend of the same age.

She told her not to say it, but when she brought it up, Cheryl, who didn’t show any refusal as usual, said while shaking her from side to side vigorously.

“You just have to be good at what you learned at the academy. There’s no shame in lacking what you haven’t learned.”

“Aren’t you having any success?”

“I was. But I was very lucky.”

The fact that the guards at the temporary detention center were idiots, the fact that Duke Lesrom invited her, and even the fact that she met Sicmel were all luck, and the fact that she had a completely new relationship called the Shadow Foot. If I hadn’t immediately snooped around the kiosk, pretending to be seen in spy movies, to identify my pursuer, I wouldn’t have met Zicmel, and if I hadn’t spent time there, I wouldn’t have overlapped with Shadow’s Feet.

“Today I saw the virtues of actions that I could have done because I wasn’t a noble, and the seeds I planted four years ago bore fruit in an unexpected way. So, don’t fret over making insignificant comparisons.”

“...Do you have no impatience?”

The question she asked was a bit strange, as she showed no resistance in her long cat Cheryl state.

“About this time? Not really?”

Since it was a little disorganized, it was difficult to interpret it all at once, so when I answered appropriately, an unexpected answer followed.

“Then, in situations other than this? For example, in the process of achieving your goal.”

hmm. As a Cheryl language master, I had no problem understanding that Cheryl was feeling impatience in this situation.

But why did you compare that to my impatience about my goal? Are you trying to say that impatience is inevitable because this job is so important to you?

“A bit of a sudden question, but not at all.”

“Can someone else kill faster than you?”

“attack?”

It was a very unfamiliar story because it was something I hadn’t mentioned in case it hurt Asilie.

“They attacked in an instant and annihilated the slave guild. It seemed like they were moving not alone, but in units, but they were driven in the middle of the night, so I don’t even know who they were. There are no traces of them all running away, and all that remains are corpses and thieves who have just been digging through the ruins of the corps.”

The way she brought up memories that could never be called good and talked about them calmly while smiling lightly was like an elf.

“But since I met Eldy without being in a worse situation, it doesn’t matter anymore.”

hmm. I’m just ashamed

Even though we’ve been together for years, we talked about things we didn’t dare to say, and while we took a break, the sun gradually went down, but neither the shadow’s feet nor Lord Ekaf came.

In the end, the sun had completely set, and it was not too much to wait endlessly while looking at the evening city.

“Ah, that’s great. Eldmia? Do you have guests?”

“Are you pooling?”

“Yes. I heard you’d be very happy if you knew you were here?”

Shadow Foot’s judgment was correct. I ran down quickly, forgetting even the hunger I was beginning to feel. As I hurriedly reached the front door, I found a shadowy foot that passed the time by tap-dancing barefoot, not paying attention to the guards standing in front of me.

While dancing passionately while humming a song, the shadow feet that found me spread both arms to the left and right, stopped the dance and shouted cheerfully.

“Euhaha! I’m back, nobleman!”

He is the owner of a really crazy high tension. Just looking at it makes me feel better.

“You worked hard, Shadow’s feet. Aren’t you hungry? How about having a meal?”

Of course, the Ogatorfs aren’t my house, and I can’t invite them inside, but that’s part of the problem if I go out and eat. I want to treat you to a meal while I’m with you.

However, the shadow foot raised its index finger and shook it from side to side along with its head, expressing its intention of refusal.

“Ah. Ah. Ah! You’re not going to get beaten, nobleman. If you’re treated to a meal, it’s no different than getting paid more than a fairy tale. Even if everyone says let’s pay, if the nobleman makes up his mind and runs, can’t I win? I will!”

oh my god. Judging by the way he speaks with a smirk, he seems to regard the act of pushing and pulling with goodwill as just a fun joke. Seeing how stubborn he was, it seemed like there was no other way than what Asilie had told me, so I decided to give up cleanly.

“Haha. Okay. Let’s give up this time.”

“Okay, good! Then, let’s start with the main topic. Actually, it’s not too far away. The reason it took so long was because they went around aimlessly, thinking about tailing whether they had brains or not. Of course, it was useless. I even wanted to punch him in the back of the head. If those guys had even bent down to tie their shoelaces, they would have tried it right away!”

Shadow’s foot spat out words like a rapid-fire cannon and handed me a piece of paper that it had pulled out in its bosom.

“It’s a map! I’d like to guide you myself, but I have to be careful with this kind of thing! If other ordinary people who saw me see us together, they might come back and bite their tails!”

I couldn’t help applauding his elaborateness that I had never imagined.

amazing! Shadow Feet!
