Chapter 533 The Professionals

After returning to Adelheit with teleportation magic, I headed for Nell’s mansion. My glass heart is desperately seeking for Chinatsu’s consultation, but I’m hesitating to meet Goddess Chinatsu because of my selfish pride. Kuh, that damn Agalia gave me outrageous harassment at the very end…!

「Well, there’s no point in complaining about it…. Ah, I’m back!」

「Welcome home, Danna-sama.」

「Gobubuubu, gobuu.」

When I opened the front door of the mansion, I was greeted by Gobuo and an unfamiliar long-haired beautiful maid at the entrance. Haru returned earlier, so I knew that Gobuo was here, but who the hell is this girl? The maid has a strong presence, so there’s no way I will forget about her if I happen to see her. Also, she has a tail and horns, and her hair is silver.

「…… I’m home. Err, you’re Odile, right? The one who always walks behind Gobuo while in the mansion.」

「Ah, yes. You can tell, huh? I tried my best to behave well, just like Gobuo-san taught me.」

What is she talking about? Far from it, I couldn’t recognize her at a glance. Her bangs, which were too long and hid her face, were swept to the side, and her hair was tied up with a barrette, so she looked completely different from before. Her gesture as a servant was almost the same as that of a professional. Is she really one of the Irygal Sisters?

「Well, I was so surprised to see that you have changed in just a few days.」

「Really? I did it! I’m one step closer to becoming a woman worthy of Gobuo-san!」

「Gobu gobu…」

Odile is pleased, and her true nature comes out. Seeing her like that, Gobuo shakes his head as if saying that she still has a long way to go. Ah, I know this one. It’s more like a master-disciple relationship. Well, it’s said that love can change a woman, and I think she’s changing in a good direction.

「Hmm? Aren’t you sisters supposed to be looking after the girls’ training? Are you taking a break now?」

「Ah, no, Ursula-neesama is concentrating on training them now. The three of them are now level 9, so she said that we, who are at the same level, wouldn’t be enough.」

「Oh, that’s really reassuring.」

*Mutter* (I think she just feels better doing combat training, where she can use all her strength, rather than doing servant work, where we have to adjust our power properly…. How envious….)」

「……? Did you say something?」

「Gobu?」

「Ah, no, it’s nothing!」

Let me correct my words, her personality doesn’t change that much. Actually, I could hear the contents of the muttering envy voice, but I don’t think it’s necessary to point it out.

「By the way, Danna-sama, should I call your wife? I think she’s at the headquarters of the knight order right now.」

「No, I don’t want to interrupt her work, so you don’t have to do that. Do your best to follow the path of a maid under Gobuo.」

「Yes, of course! Let’s go, Gobuo-san! The cleaning is waiting for us!」

「Gobubu~」

I see off the two while waving my hand. Well then, Nell isn’t here, so I guess I will go there. Thus, I went through the door of the mansion again and headed outside. My destination was my house, which was set up in the corner of the mansion’s garden.

「It feels like it’s been a long time since I’ve been here. Well, Haru has been cleaning the house regularly, so it’s clean enough that there’s not a speck of dust on it. Hmm, where did I put it? Was it in my private room?」

*Click*. I open the door of my room.

Supi~, suyasuya~

「………」

*Click*. Close the door of my room.

How strange, I felt like I saw Lilyvia sleeping on my bed.

Since she returned to Adelheit with Haru and the others, I thought that she was training together with them since she has leveled up….

It’s true that I once let Lily use my bed as a reward for something. But that’s only for that one time. The contract is completely expired now, and Lily shouldn’t have the right to use it anymore. Yeah, I must have seen it wrong. No matter how useless Lilyvia is, there is no way she would be enjoying someone else’s bed at a time like this.

*Click*. I entered my room again.

Supipipi~, I’ll be in bliss for another 10 hours~」

「What the hell are you doing?」

「OW OWW OWWWW!」

I grind Lilyvia’s temples with my fists. Since I am not powerful enough, I increase the power of my fists by manipulating gravity. Take this!

「Hauu…. It hurts….」

「Good morning. It’s a refreshing awakening, isn’t it?」

「T-That’s right. What a refreshing awakening to be woken up by Goshujin-sama…. I felt like I was going to ascend to heaven….」

「That’s good. So, what are you doing here?」

「E-Err….」

Lily averted her gaze. She’s clearly shaken.

「You’re Touko’s master, so I thought you were training with the girls, you know?」

「I-It would have been nice if I could have helped Touko-chan, but Goshujin-sama will be the opponent in the next trial, right? As someone who respects and loves you very much, I was very worried about what to do. Yes, I was very worried!」

「I see. And then?」

「Yes, that was a very painful time. I was forced to make a painful decision, so I decided to do this! Onee-sama was looking after Touko-chan, so I thought that I should take Goshujin-sama’s side! …… That’s why, I was saving my energy like this for your sake. Ehehe.」

While throwing out her chest, Lilyvia made a proud expression as if she has just made a good excuse. Good grief…. But well, if that’s the case, I will have her cooperate with me.

「I see. You really care about me, huh? I’m proud of you.」

「Fufu, that’s right!」

「Then, you will help me make the magic items I’m planning to make, right?」

「Yes, that’s right. Please praise me mor――fueh?」

「I’m sure you’ve seen the techniques of a high-ranking craftsman before, right? Even if you haven’t, you can just watch and learn from me. With your 『Acting』 skill, you should be able to imitate it and help me right away. Let’s do our best, Lilyvia. Don’t worry, I assure you that you can become a professional with your acting!」

「Eh, wait, eh? A-Are you serious? Could it be that it’s going to take a lot of time…?」

「Yeah, of course. You can use up all the energy you have saved up by sleeping here. I won’t let you sleep tonight. Be prepared.」

「I wish you had said that line in a more moody and lovely scene!」

Thus, Lilyvia and I worked hard to make magic items in the basement workshop.

――――The 87th day of training is over.
