“So?” (Azaline)

After finished explaining and reporting to the Galhala King, the Galhala Queen, and the prime minister, Allomere, Druid Oz, and the three girls went to Druid Oz’s huge mansion to rest. When they first arrived, Azaline, Geeta, and Corvus are surprised because of the sight of the mansion.

The magic beasts that are Druid Oz’s familiars are guarding the mansion, and when they approach the mansion’s door, a mountain gorilla wearing a butler uniform welcomed them. Inside the mansion, a small girl is playing with lots of magic beast cubs, but since Charnia is cute, Azaline and Geeta get along with her rather quickly.

And after sorting out the rooms and taking some rest, they’re all having dinner.

“Hm? Is there something wrong, Azaline?” (Druid Oz)

“This is your home, right, Ren?” (Azaline)

“Yes, it is, though?” (Druid Oz)

“Then what is that girl doing here!?” Asked Azaline as she points her index finger towards Claria.

“Well…” The answer that Druid Oz had prepared inside his mind beforehand suddenly disappeared.

(Shit! What should I answer, what should I answer…) (Druid Oz)

“I’m his fiance, so we live together. I’m here to protect him and to service him. As the princess of the kingdom, I need to make sure he’s happy and satisfied with his stay, after all,” Replied Claria as she calmly continues to eat the food that got prepared by Gor the mountain gorilla butler.

Hearing Claria’s reply, Azaline couldn’t help but misunderstand some of her words and got flustered.

“S-s-s-service!? H-He don’t need such a thing from you!! And he’s more powerful than anyone in this world!! He won’t need protection either!! And this mansion has enough protections since all of these powerful magic beasts are here!! And fiances aren’t supposed to live together with each other, to begin with!!” (Azaline)

“Isn’t it fine? We’re going to live together after we’re married, after all. Why are you so bothered by it?” (Claria)

“T-That’s… Because the both of us are his fiances as well!! Right, Geeta!?” (Azaline)

“Zzzzzzz” (Geeta)

“””S-she’s fast asleep…”””

Geeta is already sleeping as most of the foods on the dishes in front of her had already gone into her stomach, and now, she’s sleeping soundly from eating Gor’s delicious food.

(She’s more carefree than before, isn’t she…?) (Druid Oz)

“If the two of you are Ren’s fiance as well, then why it looks like there is so much distance between you?” (Claria)

After returning together with Druid Oz to the kingdom, Claria realized that Azaline and Geeta are keeping their distance from Druid Oz, and Druid Oz is keeping his distance from them as well. As if there is an invisible line between them, no one seems to be taking a step forward to cross it.

Azaline’s and Geeta’s feelings for Druid Oz are true, while Claria didn’t know whose feelings are stronger, but she believes that both of them do love Druid Oz. But even so, she doesn’t understand why is such an invisible line is drawn between the three of them.

The feelings of jealousy and fear of her ‘Ren’ loved other women and forgetting her is a feeling that Claria already admits in her heart. But even so, she knows that a person like him won’t be able to get tied down just by one woman, and she’s not bothered by him having more wives in the future as long he could still have time with her.

But somehow, looking at the scene before her, she couldn’t help but get annoyed and worked because of it.

“Answer me, why is there so much distance between you?” (Claria)

“T-That is…” Azaline seems like she couldn’t answer the question.

“He’s always trying his best in protecting everyone, and despite of that-” (Claria)

“Claria,” Druid Oz unexpectedly cut Claria’s words.

“E-Eh? Yes?” (Claria)

“I’m grateful for your feelings, but this problem is my fault. And, could you please let me have some talk with Azaline?” Asked Druid Oz with a gentle smile.

“…..Fine,” Claria stands up and leaves the dining room to went to her room.

“Ren…” Azaline muttered Druid Oz’s name.

“Y-” Druid Oz was about to reply but when he saw her face, his voice stopped.

Looking at Azaline’s face, Druid Oz immediately stand up and went to her side. While Geeta continues to sleep, the smart Gor lifts Charnia that also slept after imitating Geeta’s way of eating up, and went to Charnia’s room to lie Charnia on the bed.

“Forgive me, I guess I’m too late,” Druid Oz apologized as he patted Azaline that have tears pouring from her eyes.

“Yes, you are!” Azaline shouted in reply as she jumped to Druid Oz’s bosom and punched his chest.

“It’s all my fault, it’s my fault. I’m too scared, and I don’t want to lose anything. Forgive me, for acting like I’m going to disappear, for making all of you worried,” Druid Oz apologized as he caresses Azaline’s hair gently.

“No… We… I’m at fault too… Even though I know you’re in such pain, I got too scared and make a distance between us as well…” (Azaline)

“It’s fine. It all happened because I made such a blunder, after all,” said Druid Oz as he continues to caress Azaline’s hair.

Suddenly, Azaline hugs Druid Oz even stronger.

“Azaline?” (Druid Oz)

“Promise me,” (Azaline)

“Promise you what?” (Druid Oz)

“Promise me that you won’t disappear. Promise me that you will live together with me and the others. Promise me that you will make all of us happy forever, promise me,” said Azaline as she’s still at Druid Oz’s bosom.

Azaline realized that Druid Oz stopped caressing her hair for a moment after she asked that promise, but not long after, he continues caressing her hair with the same gentle touch. But-

“I will,” (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz’s tone is firm and resolute as if he’s trying to reassure Azaline that he will definitely fulfill the promise. Azaline felt that her heart got enveloped in warmth for a moment. But after a while, she started to get uneasy.

Druid Oz’s tone is indeed firm and resolute but at the same time-

(It felt like a prayer) (Claria)

Just like when someone promised to return from a battlefield where lots of people will die. Just like when a father promised his children that everything will be okay and that he will handle everything. That there’s no need to worry since he’ll be the one who carries all of the burdens.

“It’s fine. I’ll fulfill my promise, no matter what is the cost,” Added Druid Oz as if he sensed the sudden uneasiness inside Azaline’s heart.

“Nn,” Azaline slightly nods as the uneasiness in her heart started to fade away.

The hug continues for a while, for about 5 minutes or more. After Druid Oz felt that Azaline had regained her composure, Druid Oz lifts her up and put her back on the chair.

“I got hungry again after all of that, I guess I’ll finish what remains,” said Druid Oz as he continues the dinner and eats the remaining food on top of the dining table.

“True…” Azaline answered as she felt quite hungry as well after crying that much.

They continue to eat for a while, and after finished, as if Gor could sense that they have finished dining, Gor suddenly appeared to clean up.

“He really is a butler, huh… Gor, isn’t it? You’re so dependable!” Praised Azaline.

Responding to Azaline’s praise, Gor gives her a graceful bow and continues to clean up the dining table.

“Just how did you train him to be like this, Ren?” (Azaline)

“Hm… I don’t really sure… I never really taught him anything about being a butler, he just imitates me when I clean up, cook, and do other stuff. But one thing is for sure, he’s hard-working and loves to learn, though. So I doubt there might be other mountain gorillas like him,” said Druid Oz as shrugged.

“I see… What a stroke of great luck to have such a familiar…” Muttered Claria as she shifted her head towards Corvus that is lying unconsciously on the floor after eating several plates of fish dishes.

(I wonder if Corvus could do any housework…) (Azaline)

“Well, I guess that’s it for tonight. Let’s have some rest. I’ll lead you to your room, and put this sleeping beauty on her bed along the way,” said Druid Oz as he lifts up Geeta’s body in a princess carry.

“True, I’m getting sleepy as well. I guess I’ll go have some sleep,” (Azaline)
