Chapter 112.

“…… Yes, ma’am.”

Deacon’s stiff face lowered deeply.” Deacon, Deacon!”

Almost lying down in front of me in the appearance of the deacon, the knights opened their mouths. Probably quickly realizing the seriousness of the situation, they came panting.” Oh, you’ve misunderstood! I, we’re not that, not that…!”

The big, big guys ran over all at once, and the hallway filled up all at once. I wanted to go to Ikris’s room right away, the way was blocked, and frowned. The butler who tactfully noticed that kind of eye-roll from me panicked and blocked my way.” Aha! Back off!”

“Deacon! It’s not like that, all we said was…!”

One of the guys tried to get the butler to defend himself. But it was blocked by the deacon who was quietly shaking his head. That’s when they changed course to look back at me.

“Gong, Gong Maiden! All, I’ll explain it all. Everyone ……!”

“Fuck off.”

I blocked the front with a cold stare, goading him on.

“Because you smell disgusting and I don’t want to mix with horses.”

“Ah, Miss ……”

“Why. Are you going to publicly strangle him like the last guy at Extended Arms?” Making sure that the game’s Supreme Evil Girl was right, Penelope appeared to have something like a murderous aura.

Smirking and grinning, the large man who was distracted by your words blew a gasket and exited. The hesitant ones immediately took large steps and moved in order. Because I’m standing in the middle of the hallway.

I stared for a moment at the gift box they had messed up and nodded to the deacon. He moved softly and knocked on the door of the room where Ikris was staying.

“Hey, Ikris.”

“Nerosei, this is Deacon. I have something to say, can you open the door?”

Puff″. Deacon knocked on the door several times, but was silent. After knocking several times, the door did not open, and the butler returned to me in embarrassment.” He seems to be inside …… Should I bring a key, Miss?” After a moment of agonizing, I shook my head. Alas.

“Engen Katarth.”

But the Injun I saw in the woods in the back garden at the time, if Ikris was really right, was woefully out of place in many ways. I passed the deacon and stood in front of the closed door of the room. Then gently raised my hand to knock.

Duk-duk-duk.

“It’s me, Ikris.”

“Please open the door.”

The door showed no sign of opening, despite me going out myself. I stayed for a while and spoke again.

“…… I came because I was worried. Are you still not willing to open the door?”

If there’s no response this time either, I’m really going to go back. Because if I force open the door and go in.

Oh, there’s a chance that the goodwill will drop further.

I stood and waited for a while, and just as I was about to turn around, that was the moment.

Rustle.

A small rattle came from the thin and shoddy side of the door.

The door that seemed to never open slowly opened. Stopping at that sound and turning backward again, I saw only a span of open doorway. The curtains were probably drawn, and it was dark inside in broad daylight.

I turned again to the deacon.

“Those fellows just now, give the first brother a good lead and stop working.” “Geez, how can you be alone ……”

The deacon seemed worried and stiffened his face. That is to say, even if it is a slave with a low status, how can you let a noblewoman style live alone in a place where men are boarding.

“I won’t stay long, don’t worry.”

“Then, I’ll return as soon as I’ve finished the work I’ve been instructed to do and wait in front of the building.”

“Deacon. Tough luck.”

Nodding roughly, the butler saluted silently and hurried downstairs. I slowly reached out and opened the door after he had completely disappeared. Clipley″. Simultaneously with the sound of rusty hinges, the door opened a little more.

The curtains were probably drawn as expected, and it was dark inside. But the old curtains had holes in them everywhere, and sunlight came through them. Thanks to your blessing, no big deal to recognize around.

I stood on the door frame and rolled my eyes to confirm the interior. Only the table connecting the two beds and the table between the two beds was a narrow space with very little placement. Thanks to that, it wasn’t hard to find a place to stand.

“…… Ikris.”

I called to him softly, taking a step into the room. The comforter on the bed placed by the window bulged.

I stopped a day closer to that side. Because near the bed where he was lying, there were some flowers drying haphazardly on the table and the floor.

Probably because of those half-wilted things, the room smelled both fragrant and stale with mixed flavors. I laboriously sat on the bed, gently avoiding the flowers. Then gently placed my hand on the bulging quilt and spoke to Ikris.

“The master is here, won’t you show her your face?”

When I didn’t hear a response, I became worried. I gently wave my hand placed on the quilt.

“Are you uncomfortable somewhere?”

“Ikris?”

Ikris was covered in the quilt from the beginning to the end and didn’t move a muscle. Couldn’t say a word, and wasn’t he so sick alone that he didn’t even attend training?” In a flash of inspiration, I jumped up from my seat.

“I’m going back, I’ll call a doctor for you right away, just wait a moment …….”

It was time to leave the room in a hurry. Felt a faint hand against the corner of my coat. I stopped in my tracks. Looking again at the bed, the arm that reached out between the quilts clutched the end of the skirt.

“Miss …… don’t.”

“Just to the side, master.”

A voice that suppressed something came through the quilts.

Had he ever said anything so weak?

Dumbfounded, I looked at the arm pressed against the hem of my skirt, and I immediately and obediently sat on the bed again. It wasn’t a doctor, but I didn’t know if I’d lose my favor by sticking to the hem of my skirt.

I reached up and scratched, not on the quilt this time, but on the backs of the hands of the others who were grabbing me. This was to confirm whether or not there was a fever.

Is the favorability of < System >[Ikris] confirmed?

[8 Million Gold / Fame 200]

Grabbing the hand, the white square window immediately floats in mid-air. I wanted to confirm the favorability, but since I couldn’t even see the dashboard because it was blocked by the quilt, I just turned it off.

Luckily, isn’t it like a cold that feels warm under the palm of your hand.

“…… Why are you still training? Doing that would worry me.”

I let out a crisp voice. Fortunately, this time, an immediate response was received.

“…… Are you really worried about me?” But not a positive response.” Like an obligation, you’re not really trying to coax me, are you?”

As soon as the day dawned, my eyes widened. Searching for something to say for now, I gently stroked the back of his hand and said.

“I wouldn’t have come here myself if you weren’t worried, Ikris.”

“…… that day.”

“You didn’t come to me right away even when you looked at me.”

Sure enough, I wasn’t wrong to watch that day. In my defense, I opened my mouth and carefully considered what had touched Ikris’ heartstrings.

“Something came up and I couldn’t come right away.”

“Are you here to see me?”

Saying those words as if he knew the reason for his unhappiness.

“It’s rare that I came to see you because you’re in a bad mood because you’re with the crown prince.” Anyway, I’m in the middle of a relationship simulation game right now, raising the favorability of me. The last time I saw it was “86%”, which has made Ikris somewhat enamored with me.

“It’s caring ……”

The new epiphany surprised me a bit. In my haste to increase my favorability, I hadn’t considered his rational opinion of me in depth.

“So the dark red color means kite?”

Thinking of the color of Ikris’s dashboard ba, I cocked my head, remembered that the gap was too long, and rushed to say.

“If I had known, I would have left it all behind and should have been here a month ago.”

As expected, a rather gracious and kind voice appeared. For now he must be released.

“I’m annoyed because I can’t leave the gift box in the room.” But Ikris grunted an inexplicable sound.” …… Hmm?”

I asked confused, quickly seeing what he was talking about. The gift I gave you that was placed outside. Packed with multiple bulky winter clothes, the box is also large. Therefore, it cannot be placed in a small room.” My master’s gift I love it, and I’m happy to receive it.”

“I would like to say thank you ……”

Ikris’s words were somewhat confused. He mumbled something as if he had said something, and slowly gathered up the overturned quilt.

In the faint light of the old, newly leaked curtains, a face as beautiful and white as a wax statue was revealed. At the same time, his hand, hidden in the quilt, suddenly reached out to me.

“…… This is all I can give my master.”

… hair dyed brown and sagging with half-wilted flowers. They were woven in a circular shape with the form of a reporter’s period corolla.” Ah ……”

I just remembered what the flower looked like. It was the white wildflower I’d seen with Ikris in the glass greenhouse on the day it had rained furtively a few days ago.

I raised my eyes again and looked at Ikris’s face that was fully exposed. In that moment, all accidents stopped. I couldn’t believe I was looking now, frozen open. It wasn’t because Ikris wanted to give me a shabby flower house or a gift.

“…… Who’s that guy?”

“What did you get, smiling like that?”

I noticed that the corners of his eyes were a little moist.
