9. Don’t lie down – 01

“Did I do well? Right? Master, did I do well? Praise me, praise!”

After everything was over and she returned to her long-lost home, she was not her original form – in fact, her appearance as a princess was her original appearance – but Yurika, who maintained her appearance as a princess, jumped into my arms while running wildly. Hugged

“I did everything the master told me to do! That… In front of the Grand Duchess, she certainly imitated the princess, and in fact, even though her heart was nervous, she continued to pretend to be relaxed! Well done!”

She’s not a dog at home, Yurika keeps trying to dock into my arms today.

If Jammin was Mode Yuri, she would have kicked her out of the head without any hesitation, but today, for some reason, she feels reluctant to lay her hand on such Yurika.

… In particular, since it was just after her previous encounter with Yurika, she was even more inclined to use her hands.

“… Let’s ask one thing first. What the hell do you mean I’m in a relationship with you? What the hell were you talking about in front of the Grand Duchess?”

If you are going to act and deceive the Grand Duchess, I thought that it was first to set up a setting related to the world view before that, so I made use of my experience of scribbling various things on the Jakka Note during the stormy period to set up various settings related to the organization Ouroboros. Had prepared

For example, Ouroboros works in the dark and serves the light… It’s illegal, but it’s an organization that pursues justice, or Ouroboros is a bizarre secret society made up of 12 ‘apostles’ with Princess Yurika as its leader, or something like this.

To be honest, these are the kind of settings that you might be knocking on the blanket 10 years from now, but these seemingly meaningless settings are the way to increase the detail of the acting in real life, so I took Sei’s help to make this happen. I had several settings like that.

Of course, a lot of effort was put into composing a natural setting related to Eurica del Cartesia, the hidden princess of the empire, the most important protagonist of this play.

And I had Yurika and Cirilla perfectly familiarize themselves with the setting in their heads.

However, no matter how much I thought about it, there was no memory in my head of making such a romance-like setting that the mercenary named ‘Ran’ was actually a secret concubine favored by the imperial princess.

“The owner is not my mistress, but is in a romantic relationship with me. No, strictly speaking, Princess Yurika and Knight Ran are in a romantic relationship.”

“… So, to put it simply, the setting that you and I are in a relationship was something you put in at will?”

“Yes.”

I stared at Yurika with an absurd look at Yurika, who was answering that question while stretching her chest.

So, to put it simply, it can be concluded that the present Yurika was a coward who brought a secondary setting that was completely unrelated to the original work and had no basis and insisted that mine was right in front of the original author.

“No, why the hell did you put such a useless setting in? Do you think it makes sense for the last princess of the empire to meet eyes with a mercenary with no roots who doesn’t know where she came from?”

“But I didn’t like it when the knights of the YoRHa family made noise to my master, saying that they were lowly mercenaries. In fact, except for Her Highness the Grand Duchess, there is not a single person there who has a higher status than the Master.”

Yurika pouting her lips wondering what she didn’t like, I scratched her head in amazement.

“Then why did you kiss me earlier? He said that you and I were lovers anyway, and that we had already talked a lot in front of the Grand Duchess.”

“But if the two of us are really lovers, do you think that kind of skinship is normal? Also, thinking about changing my position, if you’re like my master, I even act like that in front of others, so don’t you think my words give you more credibility?”

She looked up to the sky and said that she had no shame whatsoever. Yurika’s words were perfectly logical and flawless. Yes, of course. Because walking around kissing each other in a public place is impossible without mutual love.

‘Then why did he talk so well? When I first saw it, I don’t think it was this kind of character… ‘

My heart is complicated when I look at the little girl who normally would have kept her mouth shut after babbling about it, but now she’s covering it all up and talking back to me.

But she definitely didn’t do anything wrong, and I couldn’t just punch her in the head with a question-and-answer dance like before.

“No… No matter how it is, what do you do if you hit a ball like that… You never know how things will turn out later… “

If all the plans I made fit perfectly without a single error, the empire might fall and her princess, Yurika, might become the new empress in its place.

But now, Yurika is talking about something in front of the Grand Duchess, so if things go even a little strangely, I will suddenly have an embarrassing situation in which I will have either the Imperial Princess or the Grand Duchess as my concubine.

“I don’t know what the future holds. I’m not really interested in a position like the princess anyway. I will continue to live as the master’s maid.”

While saying that, Yurika snuggled into my arms.

Come to think of it, she is also a very strange person. Do you still think of flirting with me even though I’ve been banging my head like that?

If I had been in Yurika’s position, I think she would have been treated to such an extent that she might have staged a coup d’état.

On the other hand, there was one person who didn’t like the sight of Yurika clinging to my chest like a baby kangaroo, breathing Lamaze.

Slap!

“Evil! Sick!”

From noble mtl dot com

“What are you doing! Get off now! What are the two of you doing to each other now! That kind of thing only happens between lovers… !”

I don’t know why, but Cirilla bruises her Yurika with an angry face that dyes her own face red.

“Um… But the master and I are actually lovers, right? Her Highness, the Grand Duchess, also kindly accepted that we were lovers.”

“That’s just an arrangement between the princess Yurika and the mercenary Ran!”

“So the princess Yurika and the knight Ran are actually me and my master!”

While Cirilla and Yurika were screaming at each other, Sei, who had been standing quietly behind me until now, quietly approached me and sighed quietly.

“… The wound still hasn’t completely healed. It looks like it will be very disastrous.”

Say said that while carefully looking at the scars left after I was beaten like a dog by Illivatus.

“Well, it can’t be helped. Originally, it was an enemy I could not defeat at my level. You should consider it fortunate that it ended with a scar like this.”

Sei bit his lips hard at those words, and then carefully opened his mouth toward me.

“… If you don’t mind, can I take a closer look at the wound? I think maybe I can help.”

“… You? I’m fine but… Were you good at healing wounds?”

“Yes. My sisters and I were originally angels in charge of healing and medicine in the celestial world. As that is originally my specialty, even if I use a very small amount of divinity, I will be able to see some progress in my master’s treatment.”

“Healing and medicine?”

Say’s words made me wonder about something.

“Say. As an angel, wasn’t the area of your jurisdiction the birth of life and the annunciation?”

“From ancient times, the birth of life is not the living person itself. From the point of view of reincarnation, the end of death is in contact with life.”

Wow.

As Sei carefully caresses my back, she heals my body as her warm energy spreads from her hand.

They said they were angels in charge of healing and medicine, but weren’t they empty words? I definitely feel like I’m in much better shape than before.

While I was feeling Sei’s healing process, I was shedding admiration instead of admiration, but Sei quietly sighed behind her.

“You were overdoing it. In fact, considering the fact that the injuries sustained by the master were not caused by Illivatus, but by the recoil caused by the techniques master used, it is all the more so.”

“… I know. So, from now on, I will try to restrain myself.”

No matter how hard it is, if your body gets bruised like this every time you fight, by the time you see the ending, you won’t be able to completely rule out the fact that you’ll be a terminally ill patient.

No matter how much the trend these days is a time-limited hero with some restrictions, wouldn’t it be easy to laugh if I became such a fool?

“No, I’m not talking about that kind of thing. Today, the owner gave me advice that he was literally overdoing it. I think the powers Master used, in fact, were the ones with some restrictions.”

Say’s words are quiet but seem to penetrate the core at the same time. And I couldn’t help but smile and answer her question.

“Right. Most of the things I showed you today are actually things that can’t be used in normal conditions. But how did you know that? It seems that even Ilibatus himself, who was fighting me, did not realize that.”

“No matter how much I think about it, the power that Master showed me… Because it wasn’t something that a fleeting creature like a human could get in just two months. No matter how much you are taught by a master, even if you can secure a training time that is superior to others, even if you have a transcendent talent that encompasses everything… In the end, I just decided that it was impossible.”

Say is right. Previously, he had shown himself fighting on an equal footing with Illivatus, but that was only an intentional production.

No, to be more precise, the last two months… If you include one hour of training in the white world, you’ve been ‘preparing’ to hunt him for almost two years.

‘By the way, Master. Roughly how long does it take to learn that the line is the line?’

– Okay. Enough 10 years to take off the foundation? It’s actually not easy to read the other person’s signs. It’s not an easy skill to learn, especially for someone like you who doesn’t have any talent for swords.

‘Yes? I only have 3 years left to live? Then why are you saying I should only suck one finger and then rummage?’

– Don’t mess around. Actually, I’m teaching you because you’re whining, because if it’s the same as before, it’s a skill that’s far from your level. So, I will teach you in an expedient way, not the standard way.

‘Shortcut?’

– It would be impossible even if you die to figure out the opponent’s presence in just a few months… The only way to predict the behavior of demons is to feel the movements of demons and based on them.

Yes. In fact, the line of lines that I have learned is not a proper ability to detect signs like that of the Thunder Emperor, but a deformed technology developed only for the purpose of predicting the movements of demons and predicting their actions.

Furthermore, compared to the line of the line that the Thunder Emperor used, its performance was extremely deteriorated, so it was only at the level of being able to grasp the opponent’s movement with a rough sense, rather than perfectly predicting it.

In the case of

Thunder Island, it was even worse, and its ability to cause extensive spatial dismemberment in the world itself was impeccable, but it was a fatally flawed technique that caused the body to be chewed up once used.

In fact, after using the island of brain, his body was shattered and he collapsed on the spot and couldn’t move until Cirilla rescued him?

Summarizing, the reason why I was able to exchange swords with Ilibatus on an equal footing for a moment would be the sad conclusion that he was a demon, and crucially, because he was careless.

If he was a human, not a demon, he would have died at his hands before he even split the sword properly.

‘Of course, Cirilla’s case is never like that.’

I still get goosebumps when I think of the Heavenly Demon God that Cirilla used in front of Illivatus at the last moment.

I can proudly say that the best thing I did after entering this game was making Cirilla my pet, so there’s nothing more to say.

“Um… That’s what I mean. I have something to discuss with you.”

“What do you mean?”

“Oh, nothing special, actually… “

I was about to ask a question, “Cirilla’s strength seems to be far beyond my expectations. Do you know anything about this?”

“I’ve known the young master for a lot longer than you! So, Yuri, I have a much deeper relationship with the master than you!”

“What are you doing if you only know each other for a long time! Cirilla-sister has nothing to do with Master!”

… Were they still arguing over that? Really annoying, really.

“Oh, no relationship? Do, Bocchannim and I even took a bath together when we were very young!”

“When you were very young? So that’s when I wasn’t even born? Cirilla, you are older than me.”

“For me, age is not important. What really matters is the heart! Mind!”

“Mind? So what about the chest? hehehe… Even if you compare with your heart, I’m much more… “

There was some composure in Yurika’s smiling smile, and at the same time, despair crept into Cirilla’s face.

“Hey, master. What was it that you wanted to say to me… ?”

“… No. Nothing.”

Seeing how they play like that, it seems that there is no need to worry about Cirilla.
