“I’m in trouble. . .”

I sat down on the sofa in my room and let out a sigh.

The people in the room are Hurst-san, Ryleigh-kun, and Thruster-san.

Shizuku-chan wanted to be alone, so I sent her to the tower room.

Since then, I think I was able to calm down by calling out to Shizuku-chan, who was apologizing over and over again.

I tried to ask Shizuku-chan why she was apologizing, but she wouldn’t tell me.

. . . . When this happens, I am a little lost as to what to do.

If you’re embarrassed to bring it up, there’s a way to get it out.

Talk to me and feel at ease.

Then you can trust me that it’s okay to talk to me.

But this time it’s different.

It’s not that Shizuku-chan doesn’t trust me.

I think I’ve made up my mind.

. . . .She won’t tell me.

She wants to keep it a secret.

So what I can do it. . .

“It’s quite difficult. . .”

I’m sure Shizuku-chan doesn’t want to talk to me.

That’s why I can’t force myself to ask. . .

“You failed.”

Seeing me like that, Thruster-san, who was standing by the door, snorted.

“Not everyone will be saved by your method.”

Serves you right brown rat! It’s like that.

I’m talking about the whole atmosphere.

“Well, that’s true, isn’t it?”

I nodded at that statement.

Thruster-san is harsh towards me, but he doesn’t make off-topic remarks, so I think what he’s saying makes sense.

Yes. So that’s fine.

But now, the members. . .

I’m in the north pole right now. Extremely cold.

Cold air is coming from behind the sofa.

And not only that, but the air I felt from Ryleigh-kun, who was sitting next to me, was amazing.

“Niisan?”

“What? My baby rabbit. . . !”

Didn’t you notice Ryleigh-kun like that? ‘Niisan?’ Thruster-san’s face collapsed at once.

He’s sloppy and breathing heavily. He looks sick.

Then, Ryleigh-kun pointed to the floor with his right index finger. . .

“Crawl down and ask for forgiveness.”

Oh, garbage. The way you look at trash. . . !

“I hurt your dignity. I apologize.”

And he apologized in 2 seconds.

This time, he is crawling on the floor instead of kneeling. He is lying face down on the floor.

What is this? Scary.

“Shina-san, you can step on his back strongly.”

As I pulled back from the bottom of my heart, Ryleigh-kun looked up at me with twinkling eyes that were the color of young leaves.

Then he urged me to go ahead.

No, I’m not going to be a queen.

Never.

So, when I didn’t move, Hurst-san quietly handed me something. . .

“Shina-sama, please use this.”

No, this is a sword.

A sword that Hurst-san always wears on his waist.

A thick and heavy one. . .!

“Hurst-san, what do you mean by using this?”

“Yes. I thought you could give him a thrust on the back.”

Not good.

The escort knight asks for a stop.

My room is about to be turned into a horrific scene again.

And the culprit this time is me. Probably because I feel bad.

Scary.

“No, it’s fine.”

With my heart empty, I push the sword back at Hurst-san.

See, I still haven’t figured out how to slaughter with a single blow, yeah.

“If Shina-san won’t do it, I’ll do it.”

Ryleigh-kun said that cheerfully and stepped on Thruster-san’s back.

Of course Thruster-san is delighted.

My heart left.

“. . . I don’t think so.”

As I was doing that, Zezgard-san, who was by the window, whispered.

Those golden eyes were looking at me with the usual grumpy look. . .

“I don’t think you made a mistake. I don’t think anything you did or said was wrong.”

Zezgard-san said that and suddenly moved his gaze outside the window.

“Shizuku in the royal palace was even more expressionless. . . She never cried like that. That’s in a bad way. Now, that’s why. . . I’m just glad that she can cry. . .”

In the second half, he mumbled too much, so it’s a little hard to hear.

But those words definitely reached me. . .

“No way! I’m monitoring you! It’s not like that!!”

At the end, he raised his voice as usual.

In response to Zezgard-san’s words, I try to remember Shizuku-chan’s appearance.

Shizuku-chan extended her hand to me and said, ‘Help me.’

Shizuku-chan laughed at me, saying that the polar bear nabeyaki udon was delicious.

‘Am I your little sister?’ Shizuku-chan looked up anxiously.

And then, Shizuku-chan apologized, ‘I’m sorry.’

It’s because her heart is moved. . .

“That’s right. I wondered if Shizuku-sama in the royal palace had any emotions. As far as I can see, when she’s with you, she has a lot of emotions.”

Thruster-san calmly conveyed the situation even though he was on his knees.

I don’t know about Shizuku-chan’s condition in the royal palace, but if Zezgard-san and Thruster-san who were with her say so, then it must be so.

“. . . That’s right. I still have a long way to go.”

Because we finally met.

“I wonder Shizuku-chan is still afraid of her skills. So I think it’s better to prioritize getting used to this world for now.”

I have become familiar with this world by using my skill.

That’s why I thought it would be good for Shizuku-chan if she could use her skills.

But Shizuku-chan might not have come to terms with her situation yet.

“I don’t know what will happen to the barrier, but I may be saying this because I don’t understand the situation. . .”

Shizuku-chan seemed to be able to use her skills after eating the tamagoyaki.

That’s why I think it’s better to encourage her and persuade her to use her skills.

If Shizuku-chan can use her skills, the barrier that seems like it will break will be restored and this country will be safe. Shizuku-chan has also established her status as a saint, and she may be able to do well.

But. . .

“. . . I don’t want Shizuku-chan’s anxiety to remain as it is.”

Being summoned to another world without permission, Shizuku-chan is crying. . .

That’s too much.

“I want to cherish Shizuku-chan.”

When I said that, Hurst-san who was behind the sofa moved in front of me.

Then, he pushed away Thruster-san, who was crawling on his knees, and gently knelt down.

“Follow Shina-sama’s heart.”

Soft light blue eyes stare at me.

They accept my selfishness.

“If it’s true about the magic beasts, it should be dealt with by the people of this country. They involved Shina-sama and the Saint-sama. If the barrier is broken, it’s not the Saint-sama’s fault, much less Shina-sama’s fault.”

“Yeah. You don’t have to worry about it at all, Shina-san! If the barrier breaks, I’ll burn everything! The forest and the magic beasts!”

“That’s right. All you have to do is slaughter everything.”

Hurst-san continued with Ryleigh-kun.

He reassures me that the two of us will be fine.

That’s why I only need to think about Shizuku-chan. . .

“Well then, I want to do something fun.”

It’s like the tears that were cried stopped today.

“I want to see more of Shizuku-chan’s smile.”

. . . Such a wonderful thing.

Is there anything? And I looked at Hurst-san’s light blue eyes.

Then his eyes became soft and narrowed.

“Then I have an idea.”

What Hurst-san suggested.

That is. . .

“Let’s make a hot spring.”

. . .Hot spring!?
