The sky is white. Yukari, who was tired and asleep sleeping, comes up with the morning sun.

"Drink," I said, and handed him a potion of recovery. Intuitively, it's like an energy drink. He managed to stay up all night. I failed last night ...

"... I was sorry."

I bowed to Yukari. I was in danger. It's my carelessness.

“…………”

Yukari stares silently at you. He hesitated for a while and opened his mouth.

"I was sorry." "What is your attitude?" "Yes. Actually." "Oh, I know. Brainwashing." Brainwashing with "The skill of the Duke of Lucia"

Yukari was surprised at my words with round eyes. The area around his eyes is red and swollen.

"... Why are you ..."

He says something about whether his emotions have not been arranged yet. Although he was brainwashed, he had always thought of himself as his parent's enemy. You may still be on guard.

"Slow, let's talk while walking," I took apples and bananas out of my inventory, handed them, and got up. Yukari picked it up and walked slightly behind me.

Walk while eating. Walk after eating. I just walk.

Then, about a two-hour walk, Yukari began to talk about it.

"I've been assassinated as a pawn of the Duke of Lucia Aisin." "Pion?" "Yes. Lucia picked up an orphan and gave her no name. I raised it as a piece. "" ... I see. "

There is an objection, but let's keep silent for now.

"Perhaps I was brainwashed. I was happy. I was glad I was a Lucia-like assassin. "I see." "I was foolishly misunderstood. No, it was cruel brainwashing, and my real despair was after my brainwashing was over."

Yukari's voice trembles.

"I wasn't loved by Lucia ... I was always being deceived. I was relying on false love. I didn't have a good master or a kind mother ..."

Is it frustrating, sad, or? Yukari keeps talking while shedding tears in her eyes.

"Let me tell you that I was silent ... No, I was" silent "by brainwashing." "Is that the reason for the execution of the Duke of Lucia?" "Yes. Lucia was guilty of rebellion. He was executed, but it was a red lie, a tactic of opposition. The enemy was the first Queen of White Castal ... I remember that. "" Why do you know? "" I'm a shadow. It's a role that gets dirty, and it's no wonder you don't know ... but, "Hmm?" "It's probably convenient for Lucia that I was brainwashed and kept this information from being revealed to the new master. It's bad information. "

Yukari has a worried face. Until now, the caretaker did not love himself. From there, doubts sprung up and finally revealed me the information. Still, they have remorse. I guess he felt so deep in his brainwashing.

“…………”

I had one good idea.

Earn her credibility by using "something" that she had been thinking about once brainwashing was solved. It's a deal. Don't recall Silvia's time.

I don't know if she will take it. That's why, to increase certainty, let's start by telling my "considerations". A little tricky consideration that only those who know Mevion as a game can do.

"Can you hear my thoughts?"

I ask Yukari in the eyes. Yukari nodded after a little silence.

"Yukari's thoughts are right, but Lucia Aisin – she sure loved Yukari." "No way ... I guess ... I was brainwashed?" "What if that brainwashing was to protect Yukari?" "... No, it's impossible. Why didn't I get a name and I was raised as an assassin?" "I didn't give you a name To protect you, you didn't leak information because you brainwashed it, so the image of "a poor slave who was forcibly assassinated by the Duke's brainwashing." "It's not an image. I actually spent the days of the hard and assassin's assassination." "But were you happy? It's brainwashing "

"Ask me, well-brainwashing magic, only once per person."

Restrictions on Mevion's Brainwashing Magic. It will be the same in this world. That's why I felt uncomfortable here and realized this possibility.

"... Eh ...?" "In your case, one of your brainwashing alerts me, that's why you actually thought you were happy in the shadows." "Well, uh ..."

I can't believe it. Yukari's expression was really easy to understand.

In this view, half are real and half are "sweet baits." A sweet sweet bun that she just wants to believe and wants to eat.

Yukari is worried. That's why no, but maybe ... I'm worried, and I gradually want to believe. How happy if this were the case.

And look around. I put the “something” that I had prepared into the place of “trading”.

"Yukari. Would you like to jailbreak?"

* * *

I confided everything. I have not trusted him yet. But there was no way but clinging to him.

Surprisingly, he listened silently. When I finished talking, he gave his thoughts.

……Unbelievable. The honest point is just one word. But what he says is true ... I may be able to boast one day that my dearness was not wrong in my days. It was such a gentle interpretation.

"Do you want to jailbreak?"

He says. With a generous expression.

"Jailbreak?" "Oh, I thought I'd do it if my brainwashing went away ... but well, what's a so-called" loophole "."

I hear words that I don't hear very well, and my anxiety and suspicion grow.

"In a nutshell, you're illegally not a slave. You're no longer an 'attackable'."

I can't do it.

"I can see the Morris firm, but that's okay. There's something more important."

More important than turning the Great Shokai into an enemy?

"Trust me. I want you to be my blacksmith."

………….

Ridiculous. Usually the priority should be reversed.

And I can't help but say what I can't do.

"It's a boring joke."

Jailbreak ... That would release me from slavery without formal release of slavery magic. Impossible. That is impossible. Otherwise, the business of slaves cannot be established.

"So, if you could jailbreak, would you believe me?"

He grinned and grinned.

"... Oh, no problem. Let's believe it."

I returned so. Try it if you can do it.

"Oh, then poke my head to my chest."

"…………Yes?"

I do not understand the meaning.

"Head to my chest. Do it seriously." "No, you shouldn't be able to contract ...." "I can do that.

He spreads his arms and waits for me.

Why so confident? Where does that allowance come from?

...... Why am I approaching him?

"Would you like to go?" "Oh. Don and Koi."

I can't do it.

I thought so, but closed my eyes tightly and plunged into his chest.

"Guff!"

He moans.

Dossu-and. My head hits his chest and the pain spreads.

…………did it. It's done.

It was not a lie. This is an unmistakable “attack”. Why ...?

"Successful"

Looking up at his face, he said so with a smile and gently turned his hand on my back.

"………………I"

I.

Perhaps you made a very big mistake.

Hasn't he ever lied once?

I'm aware of something.

Various scenes pass through my head at high speed.

Tokun, Tokun, and so on. Slightly early, I hear his beating.

Oh, he's the same person as me. I felt so. My heart beats faster and faster.

And I found. His "piece of credit".

When helped by a bandit, his hands unraveling and trembling.

I was scared. Fighting a lot of bandits and killing a lot. I can't be scared.

With me. After the first job, the tremor stopped.

...... No way. No way!

Is he really number one in the world?

Why did you leave them in the dungeon for training? Did you stay with me for escort? Random transfer is not a lie. 255km is not a lie. The seven-day distance to Peho is also true.

Did you keep fighting patiently to solve my brainwashing? Even if I stay asleep to protect me? He did not attack me. I can't attack me in the first place.

Did you misunderstand me? Was it my mistake?

Thieves helped me. He listened to me. He gave me hopeful considerations that I did not notice.

He freed me from slaves. Just believe it and just say it.

All, all, he wants to raise me as a blacksmith ...?

He for me?

So far for me, just for me ...!

"Are you believing?"

In his words, my heart jumps.

“…………”

I nodded in his chest, wiping tears, and said,

"Okay, but I'm going to believe ... my master."

A quirky man who aims to be number one in the world.

Maybe if he ...
