Chapter 377

Yan Tie awoke in silence.

The city outside the window was still in a bluish darkness, but she didn’t care at all, changed her clothes in the dark, and started turning on the lights in the house one by one. After lighting a fire in the fireplace and the fireplace on the first floor and putting magic stones in the back to light up the still dark living room, they quietly prepare breakfast in silence where not even the sound of insects can be heard.

After the day she accepted Eldmia’s permission and worked as a housekeeper, she was put in a situation where she could not see Eldmia, who could be called the client, but she did not idle for a single day. It had already been a month since they cleaned up every day, checked the condition of the food, and gathered information that might be useful to Eldmia.

He could have thought that Eldmia was dead and left, or that he had no reason to do his duty because he was not there, but Thie didn’t.

From the circumstances, it was clear that the orcs had flown to the west through the gate, so Eldmia would return alive. It was a feeling unique to those who serve dreams. Although it was not something that could be reassured by mentioning it directly to Asilie.

Tea, who prepared the morning table with soft foods, starting with preparing the ingredients, went upstairs feeling the rising morning sun. Then, she raised her voice to wake Asillie, who was sleeping with Laika in her arms.

“Asilie-nim. It’s morning.”

Even though she didn’t say it out loud, Asillie’s ears reacted and twitched. It was a sight that Eldmia would have been openly surprised to see, but Thie was well aware that it was not such a simple situation.

Asilie was just unable to sleep deeply. Ever since the day Eldmia disappeared.

“...good morning.”

“Yes, good morning. Eldmia-sama might arrive today.”

It wasn’t just empty words to cheer up Asilier, it was actually a story that someone from the aristocratic house came and told the other day. It is said that they headed for Millean, where the gate is located, from Irmidiz, so considering the speed of information transmission and other things, it would be enough to arrive today or tomorrow.

Knowing that, Ashley slowly rose from the bed with a slightly stronger reaction than usual.

However, Laika only opened her eyes slightly and looked around, then went back to bed and went to sleep. At least for the first few weeks, it was Leica that was moving and looking out the window, but now it seems that even that is getting out of hand, there are many things that do not move in bed. Asilie stroked Laika’s hair once, then came down to the dining room with Thiet and slowly began to eat the food she had prepared.

No matter how much I believed that I would be safe, anxiety was an unavoidable emotion. It’s because there is only life attached to it, and there could be serious injuries in one or two places. Even so, the reason Asilie maintains her normal activities and mental state is because she doesn’t want Eldmia, who has returned intact, to have a hard time seeing her devastated appearance.

However, it was not easy to maintain such a state for a month, so Asilie’s face grew tired day by day. And Thieh’s recent focus has been on collecting information that can relieve Asillie’s anxiety.

It was then. Suddenly, Laika jumped up and jumped out of bed.

“Leica?”

“bruise!”

Even if I couldn’t understand the language, I couldn’t understand what it meant for Laika, who had been living in silence for a month, to show such an appearance. Before Asilie could react properly, Laika ran out of the room.

And throwing away even the bow that was strapped on her shoulder, she belatedly ran towards Ashley.

Running out of the door with a heavy heart, what appeared in front of her was Laika, who was unable to run down the stairs because of her short legs, and was staggering backwards, step by step. Laughter burst out at the unexpected surprise scene, but Asilie, who was not at ease enough to grab Leica and run down, quickly passed by him.

“I’m sorry, Leica!”

“Kkiing...!”

Laika looked at Asilie, who was running down the stairs, with resentful eyes, then closed her eyes tightly and made a big decision.

Then he turned his body sideways and rolled down. It was a little dizzy, but it wasn’t too painful and the speed was fast, so Leica was very satisfied.

It was a rare sight that no one else would have been able to stop admiring, but Asilie, who could have been the only witness, ran down to the first floor and opened the door abruptly, ignoring the sound of crackling from behind. Then, the cold air, which I had not felt properly since I had been at home for a while, hit me with the wind. I thought it was an illusion, but Asillie smelled the scent of the world tree in the wind.

A feeling of nostalgia welled up, but it didn’t matter too much now. It was important that Eldmia’s startled appearance, which had just entered the yard, was not an illusion or an illusion.

Eldmia was pretty clear except for her expression of surprise. Not only was it so clean that it was hard to believe that he had been out for almost a month, but he was holding a large two-handed ax in one hand that he couldn’t tell where he got it from.

Not only that, she was wearing an earring she had never seen before. Eldmia didn’t have a hobby of decorating herself with accessories, so it must have been a magic tool she got from somewhere.

If someone I didn’t know saw it, it looked like they were going on an adventure with determination. From Asilie’s point of view, who remembered the last time she disappeared without proper preparation, it was nerve-wracking, but...

“...Have you been?”

At the one word that Eldmia spat while laughing awkwardly, Asilie couldn’t help but laugh.
