"... n"

When I opened my eyes, there was a ceiling.

The familiar view belongs to the room that is appreciated by me in Mae's neighborhood.

"Uh..."

"Mr. Alger!!

"Wow."

When I woke myself up, they called my name in a familiar voice.

It's the fox girl who sees this one to fill her eyes with tears. It was my friend, Kuzha.

"You woke up...!

Kuzha tried to jump and hug me.

Feeling their weight, I questioned them.

"Uh... how long have you been asleep?

"It's about 6 hours. But he seemed to sleep a lot deeper than usual..."

Six hours would be the usual as a nap, but he said the fallen situation only worried him about the situation.

He slept deeply without dreaming, or seemed to pass out.

"Sorry, I got you worried"

"No. I made it. I made it... good... like when I was your mother, I couldn't go wrong...!

It's a little painful to be hugged, but I didn't want to reject it.

When she was a mother, she couldn't make it to help. I have that in my heart the whole time.

After I disappeared in the dark elves, you worked so hard with Neguseau to catch up with me.

"Kuzha's here, thank you for your help."

That's how you rushed me, so I could prevent the magic of the Black Count.

Without her, I don't know what would have happened. That's how critical it was then that I was able to protect Mr. Elsie.

The past doesn't disappear. All this time, Kuzha will continue to regret her mother.

Still, today, she came to help me. I didn't have to regret it this time.

I held her back softly, feeling the warmth of the flowing again.

"Uh-huh... Guh, uh-uh..."

"Mmm..."

If you put your finger through your hair, it feels good to be fluffy.

I stroked her head, holding her to accept that she was trembling.

I don't know one thing about being friends, and still.

I just wanted to be like this for a little while now.

"... Is it time?

"Huh!?

"When I look surprised like that, it scratches me... I wasn't there earlier, was I?

Even as a matter of course, something unusual was sitting there.

It was the face I knew that rocked my golden hair and laughed. Besides, I know it in the sense of the worse.

"Mr. Elsie......!?

"Good morning, Argent"

Smiling gracefully, Mr. Elsie rocks the glass in her hand. It's not hard to imagine what the red liquid filled inside is.

Kuzha blatantly showed her teeth and intimidated Mr. Elsie, who would relax as if she were her own home.

"I'll tell you what, I wouldn't know if you did something terrible to Mr. Alger!

"Oh, you're a lovely protector, aren't you? Whatever you want, can we do something fun together with Argent?

"Mr. Elsie, please don't tell Kuzha something weird"

"Oh, what's weird... Argent, what did you imagine?

"What... what can I do for you"

I speak to Mr. Elsie as Kuzha blocks her ears so that she doesn't hear a bad word.

Smile mean as you tickle this one, and Mr. Elsie tilts the cup. As she snorted her throat and emptied the contents of the glass, she carefully wiped the red on her lips,

"Kind of -"

"- Are you all right, Mr. Alger!

The moment Mr. Elsie tried to spin his words, the door to the room opened rampantly.

Mr. Aoyagi, who comes in, breathes on his shoulders, but stretches his own twat to tie Mr. Elsie up.

"Ha... ha... I won't let that person do anything strange... hey!

"Oh, I'm not well. I could go get some slower water."

Mr. Elsie does not lose his spare time against Aoya, who looks in a hurry.

She stays smiling thinly, using her fogging skills to slip through the restraints.

Elsi made words against Aoyagi, who bites his teeth, only dazzlingly.

"Look, you brought it for Argent, didn't you?

"... I won't forgive you if you make any strange moves."

While staring at Elsie, Aoyagi gives me a glass of water.

"Ah... thank you, Aoyagi"

"No, I was just unavailable"

"You know, she was worried about getting cold water for you more than once, and getting her bed ready?

"O, don't say anything extra!

They gave it to me, so I honestly received it and drank it, and the soothing comfort went through my throat.

I don't know if I slept unconscious or fainted to sleep, but I was able to calm down just a little anyway.

After breathing in the smell of the room I was used to being in, I saw Mr. Elsie again.

"So, uh... what can I do for you?

"I'd like to talk to you, but you two should do it."

"Just kidding -"

"- Aoyagi. Do as I tell you. Uh... I can defend myself."

"But, Mr. Alger... is this man in danger?

"Because it's okay. Kuzha, too, please."

"... if anything happens, call me right away. Absolutely."

I nodded honestly at the words I was told, and the two of them even left me with an unconvincing face.

All that remained was silence, but the smell allowed me to guess that the two were right on the side. If anything, he'll be back soon.

"... talk, I think you're out of line, right?

"I don't mind, it's a matter of mood"

I'm sorry I had to push through that mood, so I'm an outrageous person. But Mr. Elsie has the power to push me through.

I guess that's why I have her in this place right now. Neither Kuzha nor Aoya could contain it.

There is no blood on this occasion right now, only because, in the end, Mr Elsie himself is unwilling to do so. So I decided I was okay, but on the contrary, I don't know what I'm going to do the moment I'm in a bad mood.

Being strongly aware that she would not turn into a dangerous being, I got out of bed and confronted her.
