“There’s really nothing to worry about though?”
“But why aren’t you even letting me look out the window?”
“It’s because…”
Mercy trailed off. I glanced sideways at her, then soon sighed. Right now, I’m just here in the bedroom with Mercy while waiting for Albert’s signal.
I know he’s strong, but there’s just no way he could take on that many people alone. Sure, he might not get hurt badly, but he certainly might get injured here and there. And I felt guilty about this because the coup started at an earlier date because of me.
“Prince, please let me go out with you so that I can help you.”
After breakfast inside the tower with Mercy, this was what I told Albert. While staying inside the tower for the remaining time, I started studying magic very diligently for this reason.
“No. Just stay inside.”
But Albert was adamant.
“It’ll be better for you to stay here.”
I wanted to help him, but it was also important to heed his words.
“Yeah, and I also want to look around the tower a little.”
Mercy had chimed in and further added that there’s so much here for her to see. It’s clear that Mercy, who perked up like that as though she’d been waiting to speak, was following Albert’s orders. In any case, it was difficult to insist on going out after I heard what Mercy said.
Above all, I knew that I could just be a burden to him, so I couldn’t force him to let me go outside. To be honest, this was my biggest concern.
Because I knew my place very well.
In the end, I couldn’t stop Albert from going out all by himself.
“It’s thanks to you that I’ve become this strong.”
Sighing deeply as he looked into my eyes, Albert said this in a way that was rather encouraging. He said that it’s thanks to me that he was able to come this far as a mage.
Of course, I didn’t believe a word of it.
“O-Oh. Wait a second.”
Mercy was looking out the window to see the state of things outside, then she was suddenly on the move.
“There’s something I have to do. Don’t ever open the curtains!”
Mercy urgently left while saying she had to do something. While watching her retreating figure, I patted Blanc’s head.
“Blanc, we’re leaving the tower for real this time.”
“…When we go out, I gotta study mooore…”
Blanc replied quite seriously. In response, I nodded. That’s right, I have to study, too.
“Still though, this time, I can cook whatever I want and we can eat whatever we wish. We can buy desserts and clothes, meet people and talk to them and return to being a member of society.”
“Rosé, you look excited…”
“…How can I not be excited about this?”
Right. I’m very, very excited.
I feel relieved just thinking about how we can finally go out after this long confinement is over. No matter how much I liked staying in, it’s difficult to be a homebody by force. It’s essential to maintain the freedom to go out whenever I want.
…But before that, there’s work to be done.
I recalled what Albert told me.
“Rosé, you have an important role this time.”
Holding my hand tightly, Albert spoke with a tender expression.
“I have to go after Rosteratu. In the meantime, you have to deal with the people left behind.”
I needed to present myself as his faithful maid who’s become a supporter of this rebellion. For that, I had to make those people surrender.
Instead of Mercy, I was tasked to do this. It’s important for me to appear as though I’m making a contribution to the coup. During the celebrations later, my actions would reduce the gossip and noise that would surely come about.
I could read his thoughts on this. And rather than revealing that we had a transactional contract, this was better. I couldn’t go against this plan because it’s much better for the sake of Albert’s dignity and status.
“I will make those people kneel before you.”
As I thought of Albert, who whispered this in a low voice, my brows furrowed.
…How on earth could I possibly handle that many people? It’s still difficult for me to even memorize magic circles. And I’ve never really wielded magic before.
It feels like I’ve become a new employee again! And it’s terrible! Clutching my hair as I agonized over this, I gasped when I felt a sudden pang.
“Ugh…”
It felt like the same headache that Albert had treated not long ago. While wrapping both hands over my head, I crouched down.
“A-Are you okaayy? Rosé? Rosé?”
From beside me, Blanc tried to look at my condition.
What’s this? But Albert healed me already. There’s no reason for this headache to come back.
Was it a normal headache? Was this only from fatigue?
Then, Mercy grabbed my shoulder.
“You must’ve waited a long time! You can come out now.”
The moment I heard Mercy’s cheerful voice, the headache disappeared. Blanc was still looking at me with wide, worried eyes, so I comforted him.
“I’m fine, Blanc. Let’s get ready to go out.”
I fetched my luggage at the kitchen, then I stood in front of the door with Mercy.
“Ah, it’s better to put on your cloak now.”
Mercy advised me before we went out. We weren’t even in the northern region where Liam’s fortress was, so I wondered why it was necessary, but…
“I guess I really do need it.”
I realized what she meant the moment we stepped outside.
I stared in amazement at the frozen people around us. Connected one after another, it looked as if they’d become one huge lump of a statue.
Mercy clapped once.
“Now then, it’s time for you to use magic to knock those people out. Just leave a few witnesses here.”
“…All these people? Me?”
“Yes.”
…Mercy nodded as though it was obvious. And I was left speechless.
Do I look like I’m some kind of magic prodigy to you?
