As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

click...

The general who returned to the Mezas mansion opened his bedroom door and saw Ying still sitting on the bed, without even changing his clothes.

"Have you been waiting for me?"

She paused and then asked somewhat differently.

"good."

Ying saw that she didn't look happy when she came back, and just nodded as usual.

"Why don't you sleep?"

After closing the door, she put on her slippers and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at each other.

"...I can't sleep. I always feel that there is something missing around me. What is missing?"

Shadow looked at her pointedly.

"You~"

The general smiled helplessly when he heard this and reached out to touch Ying's face.

"What happened?"

Ying let her touch her without any resistance, and then asked like this.

"Huh...it's a long story——"

The general sighed and then took off his dress again, put on the nightgown with suspenders and climbed onto the bed. Under Ying's arms, he shrank back into the bed with the two of them, and then told the other party about the previous events. go through.

"I see...it's been quite a twist."

After hearing this, Ying sighed, hugged his daughter... and stared at the curtains covering the window opposite.

"Originally, I wanted to chase him directly, but the opponent seemed to have evaporated and disappeared. His footsteps were disrupted by those monsters, and he was nowhere to be found."

In Ying's arms, she let her forehead rest lightly on his chest and narrowed her sleepy eyes.

"...You've done a great job."

Shadow pressed his lips to the top of her head.

"Why didn't you come with me just now?"

The general remembered something about his blind spot, so he narrowed his eyes speechlessly and looked up at the other party.

“The residence needs to be guarded and not an empty nest.”

Ying spoke with reason.

"Hmm~?"

She didn't answer and looked at him.

"Ahem...I, I took off my clothes then."

Ying explained somewhat guiltily.

"So what?"

she asked again.

"...Don't like to move."

In the end, the other party revealed the root cause.

"……call."

She breathed out a sigh of relief and said no more.

"You dislike me again... It's okay to be lazy for a while after you've worked so hard."

Ying slightly puffed up his face and complained about her grievance.

"How long is this 'a while'?"

Feeling the people around her rubbing her face constantly, she felt a hint of pampering in her heart, and then asked with a teasing tone.

"Sigh... You see, I am getting older, my body is becoming less flexible, my eyes are dim, my waist is sore, and my back is aching. You don't even feel sorry for me, and you still let me do this and that."

The other person seemed to be snoring more and more, and the hand holding her gradually tightened, burying her in his arms and leaning against her face while closing his eyes and talking muffledly.

Of course she would not show this appearance in front of others. At this moment, she was the shadow of a mother acting coquettishly towards her precious daughter, not the shadow of the God of Thunder.

"...Okay, okay, don't hug me anymore, don't stretch me to the waist."

She pretended to be disgusted and wanted to get out of the other person's arms, but Ying clung to him like a cat.

"Oh~ it's too much~ I'm like this and you still dislike me."

Shadow complained and hugged her again.

"Isn't your back hurting?"

She asked with a smile after stopping her movements.

"It won't hurt anymore if I hold you, and my eyes won't be blurry anymore."

Ying also showed a doting smile, closed his eyes and covered the two of them with a quilt.

Kacha~

The warm lights that filled the room were extinguished, and the darkness of night enveloped the mother and daughter who were embracing each other.

Re0~ Time travels back and forth, only you are by my side: Chapter 25 Why does this curse keep jumping around again and again?

knock knock!

Early the next morning, a rapid knock on the door echoed in the bedroom where the general was sleeping.

"..."

The purple-haired woman who was huddled in the quilt frowned slightly unhappily, and then covered her face with the quilt again.

(Sir General?!)

There was Ram's voice outside the door. It was a little dull and blurry because it was isolated by the door, but it could be heard from the tone that it was very urgent.

knock knock!

There was another knock on the door.

(General, haven’t you gotten up yet? What should I do? Ram is rude!)

Click!

Ram apologized first and then opened the door and walked in. He walked into the room and quickly ran to the woman's bedside and stretched out his hand to shake the sleeping woman.

"General, please wake up!"

Although it was rude to do so, she still mustered up the courage to take action. After all, the situation was urgent.

"Hmm~!"

As Ram shook gently without exerting any force, the general gradually woke up from his sleep, and opened his confused purple eyes to look at the blurry red figure in front of his face at this moment.

"General, are you awake?"

Ram smiled hopefully when he saw this.

"... Ram?"

she asked confusedly.

"Yes, I am Ram."

The opponent nodded.

"What are you doing? You suddenly broke into my room..."

He asked as he stood up from the bed and hung the clumsy nightgown on his shoulders again.

"That...isn't good, Rem—"

"She's awake?"

the general asked blankly.

"...No, on the contrary, she, her condition has worsened!"

Ram shook his head a little anxiously.

"Is the condition... getting worse?"

She was really taken aback for a moment.

impossible?Yesterday, she had clearly used her dreams to remove those black substances, so why did they get worse?Why?

"I don't know either. Lady Beatrice is conducting a comprehensive inspection, but judging from the other party's expression, there is something... not good."

Ram lowered his face when he said this, and his tone gradually started to tremble.

"...Phew, come with me."

Sighing slightly, she stroked her forehead with her fingertips to ease the sleepiness of just waking up. Then she put on the plush slippers by the bed with her bare feet. She didn't even change her clothes and just wore this skirt that only reached the middle of her thighs. She put on her nightgown and planned to leave the room with Ram, but in the process she thought of something and looked at the bed where she was originally.

【I am here. 】

The next second, as if knowing her thoughts, the shadow told her in her mind.

'When did you get up? '

she asked.

[Just now, I heard a knock on the door. 】

'It's so fast. '

While walking quickly with Ram, he laughed and teased in his heart.

[I’m all used to it. 】

Ying very helplessly answered, is it easy to sleep with her daughter?It's easy in the castle tower, they sleep together almost every day, but in this other world, you need to be extra careful to avoid exposing your secret.

After a few minutes--

"Um--"
