Chapter 10.5 – Secret Story – Assembling Party Part 4 Side B
Translator: Eros| PREVIOUS | CC TOC | NEXT |
Ash will enter the bath before father Ricardo so the order will be me and Suu-san, mother Remilia with Elena-san and Stella, Ash, then dad will be the last.
In the undressing room, Suu-san who always have braid hairdo for her usual hairstyle casually take off the spherical jewel hair pin that holds down her hair. With the thing holding it up gone, her silky black straight hair can only obey to gravity and fall down. Hiroto never saw Suu-san with this kind of hairstyle before so when he sees it for the first time, he was fascinated by it for quite a while.
And Suu-san herself, while keeping having her usual expressionless face, starts to take off her own clothes starting from her apron and then continued to the black one-piece she wears underneath it. When the clothes that wrap her back laid bare, a tight corset can be seen from underneath which she take off too without any hesitation. How she manages to wear it without being noticed from the outside is a mystery but that’s not the important thing now. The important thing now is that after the corset fastener belt got loosened and naked skin exposed from under it, Suu-san’s breast that usually only half of it upper part was exposed, got completely exposed in front of his eyes now. And she does it without any hesitation as usual. My mind is conflicted between seeing it or not, and in the end just staring at the blank space ahead.
“Young master, are you embarrassed?”
“A…… N-no. Suu-san, seems to wear such a difficult clothes to wear so I wonder won’t it be troublesome…… ”
“I wear this everyday so I got used with it. And the feeling of freedom that I feel when taking it off is quite addicting”
Suu-san grabs a towel and cover her breast and waist part then she starts undressing me. When I got completely stark naked, I kinda want to say ‘please be gentle, it’s my first’, but seeing her usual calm and composed manner made me hesitated to say it.
Suu-san then wash my body carefully, and in the end pour warm water on me. When I look back at her, a rare happening occurred. Suu-san is smiling.
“Suu-san, you are smiling…… Is some happy thing happened? ”
“Ah forgive me young master. Looking at you remind me of my younger brother. He is still an infant just like you. I also take care of him in bath like this. But when I try to wash his hair, he will always flail around and won’t sit still. He is older than young master but compared to young master, he is still a spoiled little kid and always give trouble to others”
“Is that so…… Suu-san… can I wash your back?”
“Oh my…… having young master do such thing is unacceptable”
“Because today is the last day so… I want to give my appreciation… Because Suu-san always listens to my wish…… and always help a lot around the house. Even mom felt thankful because Suu-san is here helping her. That’s why……”
Suu-san hesitated for a moment but hearing my explanation, she gives me a smile. And with that, she grabs the towel that wraps her body and exposes her naked body in front of my eyes.
Purun~. With such a licentious sound effects, those twin mountain that is as white as snow appear before my eyes. Two striking vivid pink colored tips are reflected inside my eyes ---- Is it because she starts to feel cold while washing me? Because those two parts of her seems to get harder than usual in my eyes.
“Well then…… I will take on your favor young master”
“Y-Yeah…… if it felt ticklish say it to me okay”
I wring a wet towel and use it to scrub Suu-san’s body. I scrub her back carefully as to not harm Suu-san’s white delicate skin. Even if my hand reach now is still short, if Suu-san is sitting down then I won’t have any problem reaching her whole back.
The bath chair is just a simple wooden plank with chair legs added to it. Now the problem is, what will happen if someone sits their butt on that wooden plank? …… Well I have checked it with my eyes once when I wash mother’s back. When plump things sit on that wooden plank, it will change it shape to adapt to the flat wooden plank with a gyuu sound effects. When I saw such phenomenon, it made me think that maybe I focus too much on women breast that I fail to recognize other important things.
“Nnn…… Young master, it is a little bit ticklish”
“A! I-I’m sorry…… I will be more careful. Let me finish washing your back Suu-san”
She seems to be weak in her waist area for her to reacts like that even when I wash her normally. She doesn’t usually give such expression so my heart beating a little bit faster seeing it.
Her waist curves draw a perfect china vase. Is it because she wears corset everyday that her waist becomes this perfectly shaped? Added to the perfectly shaped hips, she also has this plump meaty butt. If this was earth, she is definitely a high quality super model material. Is there any job similar to that in Eternal Magia I wonder?
When I handed the washing towel to her, she starts washing her own breast herself. I hesitated to keep watching at her so I just start stare off at the ceiling to kill time ---- and suddenly.
“…… Young master, there is one thing that I wish to tell”
“E? …….”
After saying it, Suu-san keeps her silence for quite awhile. She just silently continues washing herself. When she finished washing herself, I draw the hot water with a bucket to wash her off from her shoulder. And with that, Suu-san turns her head to look straight at me. Her eyes gives off a feeling of sincerity like never before.
“The truth is…… I, I am actually not just a simple maid. But it is true that I came from the guild”
“D-does that mean…… that Suu-san had been deceiving my mother this entire time…… that can’t be like that right? I don’t think Suu-san is such a bad people like that”
“Hearing that from young master made my heart at ease. But in truth, besides my duty as a maid, I also have other purposes for coming to this house…… And I can’t easily declares whether that purposes would become a good thing for Madam and also for you, young master Hiroto”
“…… If it was for me, as long as you don’t mean to bring harm to my family, then I am alright with it”
It was only for just a short time but I have seen how she usually works. She is so dedicated with her work as a maid even if it was not her main purpose for coming here. She deserves my mother trust because of her diligence in work.
But at the same time, I also got curious with her. She wears a piece of equipment that negated my [charisma] just like the mask that no name-san wears. If she is just the usual maid, why would she wear such a high spec equipment? It was something that had bothering me for quite a while.
(Ah, that’s right…… the same thing also happened to Filianes-san. And the reason is because she had to unequip her equipment when entering the bath……!)
This is maybe the last chance. With that in mind, Hiroto is no longer hesitates. Suu-san’s status that had always been a mystery is now accessible! Without any further ado, he immediately operates the menu to display her status ---- and then.
(Agent…… So maid is a fake job that is used as a mask to infiltrate our house and Agent is the true job…… And this Enforcer skill… isn’t it just make her look more like an assassin for goodness sake! ……)
50 points for Knife Mastery ---- that is not a number that can be achieved by just half assed effort. Knife had a short attack range and the damage is also small. Using it at the early stages is quite troublesome but people say that when Bladestorm is acquired, the difference is just like seeing a whole new world! When this skill is used, it will attack any enemy inside its attack range randomly ranging from 7 to 12 attacks in total each time. If used carefully, you can have a chance to attack 1 enemy up to 12 times in one go! That powerful skill has both the roman (novelty?) and high usability making it a popular choice among the player.
With this as example, it made me think that maybe the more difficult to raise the skill at the early stage means that the skill will evolve radically from a useless skill into a godlike skill. It was also applicable to my negotiation skill. Raising it to level 79 was a real suffering and it only gives a few and not so useful skills but once it reach level 80, the once useless skill turned the table extremely and become godlike.
I suddenly started to think deeply about the principle of learning skill but remembering my situation now, this is definitely not the time for such thought. The important thing now is that the fact that one with such-hard-to-raise-at-early-stage skill has come to my house. ---- And equipped with such skill, what intention does she have toward my family? The only thing that I can imagine from the skill is… assassination. If that’s the case… mom and dad are in danger!
But I know she don’t have that kind of dangerous intention toward my family. She must have her own reason for it. If her purpose is really for assassination then she should have already started her act at the moment she managed to infiltrate the house. But she didn’t do anything and keep on working as a maid diligently until today and will return to the guild tomorrow.
“…… I am actually works as an observer for the guild. My job mainly is to monitor the adventurers who are registered with the guild to check whether they do any conduct that would break the kingdom’s law or the guild’s rule and to deliver punishment to those who do such things. But our job is not limited to that only. Aside from that, ‘we’ also have one other important duty. Do you understand my explanation this far?”
“Yes. But why did Suu-san who has such kind of work becomes a maid like this? ......”
She didn’t answer my question and just silently stands up. And with a stream like smooth movement she takes off the towel that wraps up her waist. Her movement is so natural that even I can’t predict that. With a naked body suddenly appears before me, my head stops functioning for a while. Suu-san then lift up me, who are still dazed by the sudden happening, and enter the tub together with me in her arms. It seems that she is worried that I would catch cold if we keep on talking like that.
In the tub, Suu-san hugs me up from behind. In both my shoulders, two soft something are touching it but the owner of that two something seems to not minding of it at all ---- With only 20 points in Maternity skill to have a great pair like this, it seems that those are naturally big to begin with that it even surpass the buff given by the skill.
“Maid is the outside appearance that I use to cover my real occupation. The one who work as the observer for the guild, ‘agent’, have to experience many kinds of other occupation in order to fulfill their duty smoothly”
“…… Then Suu-san only act as a maid, is that right?“
“…… It was my intention before. But in this house, there is an unpredictable happening occurred. And that unpredictable happening is you, young master”
“Eh? Me?”
If I try to move my body, the sensation that I feel in my back become even more vivid so I stay still without trying to turn around to look at Suu-san’s expression. But even without looking at her expression, I can feel it from the way she says ‘unpredictable happening’ that she doesn’t mean anything bad with it.
“Because young master was going out with Monika-san today, I also got the chance to go outside for a while. Before I continue I want young master to forgive me for I have witnessed the full story of everything that was happened today”
“Eh……Suu-san was observing us all day today……?”
“Yes. When I witnessed young master went to the forest with girls that is far older than young master, I unexpectedly feel worried about it, but that worry end up as only a needless anxiety. When the monsters show up, I was lost whether I should come out from hiding to help young master fight the monsters or not. But young master was not only command young master’s party perfectly to bring down the monster but also help the other party from their plight. I can’t even grasp the situation and dumbfounded for quite a while seeing that situation and only understand one thing clearly, that young master is an axe user. In my eyes, young master skill is still being the one used by the axe not the other way around but the fact that young master managed to defeat a monster won’t change”
Suu-san talks about the facts that she saw today with an indifferent tone. She don’t scold me for fighting against a monster, in fact, her opinion about me seems to be rising because of it.
“I also start training since childhood but the first time I subjugated a monster is when I was five. In comparison, young master was able to do so even when young master is still one years old…… Even adding to the fact that young master is the son of the kingdom greatest axe knight Ricardo-sama, young master’s growth is abnormally fast……”
“S-so you must think that I was weird right…… I’m sorry, but that is because……”
“Young master must have some kind of secret behind this right? The secret behind how young master manage to grow both in body and mind abnormally fast like this. But I won’t delve in further with young master’s secret. I just hope that young master can keep on growing in the good direction like this and manage to master that power. If young master manage to master that power, no matter what troubles that might come after this, young master will surely be able to overcome them all. This is what I wish to believe”
Suu-san suddenly talks about something unexpected. [Troubles that might come after this]… I can only feel bad premonition from this word ---- and then I finally understand the reason why Suu-san comes to our house.
There is a high probability that she knows father is the guardian of the devil sword. And it was from a source that is different from Filianes-san it seems. She must be dispatched here to check out the condition here.
But that is still a probability. I think it is already alright to ask such question to Suu-san so I directly ask her what her purposes were.
“Suu-san, did you come here to check on my father? Or maybe to check on mother?”
“Both…… is the most that I can say. Young master might already know about this but Remilia-sama is a noble that was born from a high leveled noble bloodline. There are no sign of struggle between madam and the main family but even still, she is still concerned about the safeties of young master’s and master Ricardo’s. For things related to that, I think madam will tell young master directly about it in the near future”
“So I won’t know anything for now right?......”
“Yes. Did young master wanted to meet young master’s grandfather and grandmother?”
“No. If mother let me see them then I want to meet them. But I also think there is a need for me to meet them for the present time”
“…… Young master really is kind. But I must warn young master to not make madam worry too much about young master’s safety. I know it was out of place for me to say it, please forgive me young master”
I don’t even consider that out of place even more so, after talking frankly to her like this, I kinda feel guilty for even doubting her for a second there. Even if she is in truth the observer sent by the guild, that fact is irrelevant to the fact how much she really cares to my family from the depth of her heart.
When I did those ridiculous things, she should be thinking of stopping me right? But against her who can’t say stop to my recklessness, I become spoiled by it and want to ask her to help me an even more ridiculous thing to do.
That expression on Jester and Hugo’s face when they asked no name-san for a drink together… that expression is up to no good. Realizing that and still doing nothing to it made my heart feel restless. I definitely can’t sleep well tonight if I just let it pass.
“Um…… Suu-san”
“…… Is there anything that young master would request from me? I somehow able to guess from young master voice”
“Err…… I’m sorry”
“No, there is no need for young master to feel sorry. Is there something wrong young master? Please don’t feel too restricted in front of me and just tell me your request young master”
She was in fact an agent but now, she is a completely dedicated faithful maid. Pro really is great, but it might be only because men are a living being that is weak in front of a maid, anyway she really manages to catch my heart completely with that.
“Yes. One of those people even pulled young master into deserted place and was trying to seduce young master right? I can’t decide whether I should go out from my hiding to try stopping that girl or not. But thankfully because Wendy-san sudden appearance, I decided to stay”
“I-I’m sorry, Hilmelda-san don’t have any ill intention so I think it’s alright. At first she seems to be difficult to approach but she is actually a pretty good girl you know?”
“…… Young master is being deceived. That kind of girl only excels at deceiving men in order to fulfill their own egoistical wish. To think that she looks at young master, who are still only one years old, with those lustful eyes…… I definitely can’t forgive her. As expected I need to give her a bit punishment as the representation of madam Remilia……”
“Wa! N-No! I don’t mean that! Suu-san that is not the problem……”
Seems like she doesn’t think highly of Hilmelda-san, no maybe it was even a feeling of hate? Suu-san’s voice sounds a bit scarier than usual. In panic, I reflexively turn around my head to see her straight in the eyes. Realizing her true feeling seeping out, she gave out a small ‘ah!’ and regains her usual cool.
“…… I beg your pardon young master, I’m sorry for being impertinent. She is already a splendid friend of young master now right? It’s not like I approve her of being one thought……”
“Err-right…… Hilmelda-san is my friend but I’m more concerned to the other one that called no name-san. She planned to have a drinking celebration with the member of the party she associated with. But those people doesn’t seems to be good people so I was worried”
“Ah…… so it really is about Jester and Hugo right? Those two bad conducts really is causing many troubles. There are even complains coming to the guild because of those two. Their modus operandi was usually to become parasite to any female adventurer who is quite skilled, and even resort to forceful method to keep that relationship. There are many female adventurers who can no longer leave Mizelle because of them. The latest news I heard about them is that they had joined a new party in the capital city and working earnestly there”
(Forcefully become parasite? ...... Seems like my intuition hit home. Those guys have already been dirtbags from a long time before……!)
I can feel my heart suddenly beats even faster than usual. From hearing the word ‘forceful method’ I already can’t keep my cool any longer. Even if they are weaklings with low level and weak skills, they are indeed a guy. If they successfully get no name-san and Hilmelda-san drunk then their chastity is at danger……!
“In my personal opinion, this is the kind of story that I don’t want young master to hear but, having a girl that have reached adulthood as a party member also indirectly means that the other party member have to protect that girl from any harm. And that rules even apply to young master even though young master is still an infant like this. I hope young master will always keep this indirect rule in heart”
“Yes. I understand. Even though I small, I am also a member of the party. It has no relation whatsoever with one’s age. If I just close my eyes and think that problem is not my problem then we can never be true friend ever……”
“You really are blessed with good colleagues, young master. Wendy-san is a diligent girl, she should grow up into a great knight in the future. Monica-san archery skill is also quite high. I feel that young master will depend on her a lot from now on”
Even when Suu-san only praises my party member, I feel happy for it as if I was the one who receive the praise.
But rather than that, the important thing now is saving no name-san. Suu-san also seems to understand that. She immediately hugs me and lift me up from the bath tub.
“I also worried about those two girls. If Jester and Hugo really meant to create more problem again then the order to punish them should comes out immediately. Those guys had already committed serious rule violation today. The first one is that they escaped from battle deserting their party member leaving them in danger. And if they really mean any harm to their party member for the sake of their own self gain then their license as adventurer would be revoked and will receive punishment in accordingly to their crimes”
“Yes…… If nothing happened then it would be for the best but... Suu-san, will you help me?”
When he ask Suu-san about it, She only gives back a light smile. She seems so humanlike with that smile. That expression might be a faulty one as she IS a human but the smile she displays now is a smile that naturally comes out normally from any girl her age. The kind of smile that rarely shown from her expressionless face.
“Then I will ask to master and madam to have a bit night walk together with young master. Is there any problem with that young master?”
“No. Definitely not! Then with it settled let's hurry and go out before the night becomes too late Suzanne-san!”
“…… From where did you know about my name? Well it doesn’t really matter but please keep calling me with the name ’Suu’. Because I don’t even tell madam about the name ‘Suzanne’ so just to keep it safe”
“A…… I-I’m sorry. Seems like I reflexively said the wrong thing… aha… ha ha ha……”
“Young master really is someone who can’t be make light of. Young master really made me started to wanting to observe young master growth from somewhere up close which I can’t. But as I am attached to the adventurer guild of Junegan kingdom, there are definitely chances for us to meet again somewhere in the future. Well, there is also a chance that when young master grow up, he might already forgot me by that time”
I think that the chances of me forgetting about her are close to zero. Once she leaves the house, I don’t know when we'll meet again but ---- if I were to meet again with her, I will definitely remember. If you ask why then it was because I perfectly remember about the person who gives me skill just as much as remembering the person from whom I failed to receive skill from. IYKWIM.
In the undressing room, Suu-san who always have braid hairdo for her usual hairstyle casually take off the spherical jewel hair pin that holds down her hair. With the thing holding it up gone, her silky black straight hair can only obey to gravity and fall down. Hiroto never saw Suu-san with this kind of hairstyle before so when he sees it for the first time, he was fascinated by it for quite a while.

Suu-san then lift up me, who are still dazed by the sudden happening, and enter the tub together with me in her arms. It seems that she is worried that I would catch cold if we keep on talking like that.
In the tub, Suu-san hugs me up from behind. In both my shoulders, two soft something are touching it but the owner of that two something seems to not minding of it at all ---- With only 20 points in Maternity skill to have a great pair like this, it seems that those are naturally big to begin with that it even surpass the buff given by the skill.
“Maid is the outside appearance that I use to cover my real occupation. The one who work as the observer for the guild, ‘agent’, have to experience many kinds of other occupation in order to fulfill their duty smoothly”
“…… Then Suu-san only act as a maid, is that right?“
“…… It was my intention before. But in this house, there is an unpredictable happening occurred. And that unpredictable happening is you, young master”
“Eh? Me?”
If I try to move my body, the sensation that I feel in my back become even more vivid so I stay still without trying to turn around to look at Suu-san’s expression. But even without looking at her expression, I can feel it from the way she says ‘unpredictable happening’ that she doesn’t mean anything bad with it.
“Because young master was going out with Monika-san today, I also got the chance to go outside for a while. Before I continue I want young master to forgive me for I have witnessed the full story of everything that was happened today”
“Eh……Suu-san was observing us all day today……?”
“Yes. When I witnessed young master went to the forest with girls that is far older than young master, I unexpectedly feel worried about it, but that worry end up as only a needless anxiety. When the monsters show up, I was lost whether I should come out from hiding to help young master fight the monsters or not. But young master was not only command young master’s party perfectly to bring down the monster but also help the other party from their plight. I can’t even grasp the situation and dumbfounded for quite a while seeing that situation and only understand one thing clearly, that young master is an axe user. In my eyes, young master skill is still being the one used by the axe not the other way around but the fact that young master managed to defeat a monster won’t change”
Suu-san talks about the facts that she saw today with an indifferent tone. She don’t scold me for fighting against a monster, in fact, her opinion about me seems to be rising because of it.
“I also start training since childhood but the first time I subjugated a monster is when I was five. In comparison, young master was able to do so even when young master is still one years old…… Even adding to the fact that young master is the son of the kingdom greatest axe knight Ricardo-sama, young master’s growth is abnormally fast……”
“S-so you must think that I was weird right…… I’m sorry, but that is because……”
“Young master must have some kind of secret behind this right? The secret behind how young master manage to grow both in body and mind abnormally fast like this. But I won’t delve in further with young master’s secret. I just hope that young master can keep on growing in the good direction like this and manage to master that power. If young master manage to master that power, no matter what troubles that might come after this, young master will surely be able to overcome them all. This is what I wish to believe”
Suu-san suddenly talks about something unexpected. [Troubles that might come after this]… I can only feel bad premonition from this word ---- and then I finally understand the reason why Suu-san comes to our house.
There is a high probability that she knows father is the guardian of the devil sword. And it was from a source that is different from Filianes-san it seems. She must be dispatched here to check out the condition here.
But that is still a probability. I think it is already alright to ask such question to Suu-san so I directly ask her what her purposes were.
“Suu-san, did you come here to check on my father? Or maybe to check on mother?”
“Both…… is the most that I can say. Young master might already know about this but Remilia-sama is a noble that was born from a high leveled noble bloodline. There are no sign of struggle between madam and the main family but even still, she is still concerned about the safeties of young master’s and master Ricardo’s. For things related to that, I think madam will tell young master directly about it in the near future”
“So I won’t know anything for now right?......”
“Yes. Did young master wanted to meet young master’s grandfather and grandmother?”
“No. If mother let me see them then I want to meet them. But I also think there is a need for me to meet them for the present time”
“…… Young master really is kind. But I must warn young master to not make madam worry too much about young master’s safety. I know it was out of place for me to say it, please forgive me young master”
I don’t even consider that out of place even more so, after talking frankly to her like this, I kinda feel guilty for even doubting her for a second there. Even if she is in truth the observer sent by the guild, that fact is irrelevant to the fact how much she really cares to my family from the depth of her heart.
When I did those ridiculous things, she should be thinking of stopping me right? But against her who can’t say stop to my recklessness, I become spoiled by it and want to ask her to help me an even more ridiculous thing to do.
That expression on Jester and Hugo’s face when they asked no name-san for a drink together… that expression is up to no good. Realizing that and still doing nothing to it made my heart feel restless. I definitely can’t sleep well tonight if I just let it pass.
“Um…… Suu-san”
“…… Is there anything that young master would request from me? I somehow able to guess from young master voice”
“Err…… I’m sorry”
“No, there is no need for young master to feel sorry. Is there something wrong young master? Please don’t feel too restricted in front of me and just tell me your request young master”
She was in fact an agent but now, she is a completely dedicated faithful maid. Pro really is great, but it might be only because men are a living being that is weak in front of a maid, anyway she really manages to catch my heart completely with that.
“Yes. One of those people even pulled young master into deserted place and was trying to seduce young master right? I can’t decide whether I should go out from my hiding to try stopping that girl or not. But thankfully because Wendy-san sudden appearance, I decided to stay”
“I-I’m sorry, Hilmelda-san don’t have any ill intention so I think it’s alright. At first she seems to be difficult to approach but she is actually a pretty good girl you know?”
“…… Young master is being deceived. That kind of girl only excels at deceiving men in order to fulfill their own egoistical wish. To think that she looks at young master, who are still only one years old, with those lustful eyes…… I definitely can’t forgive her. As expected I need to give her a bit punishment as the representation of madam Remilia……”
“Wa! N-No! I don’t mean that! Suu-san that is not the problem……”
Seems like she doesn’t think highly of Hilmelda-san, no maybe it was even a feeling of hate? Suu-san’s voice sounds a bit scarier than usual. In panic, I reflexively turn around my head to see her straight in the eyes. Realizing her true feeling seeping out, she gave out a small ‘ah!’ and regains her usual cool.
“…… I beg your pardon young master, I’m sorry for being impertinent. She is already a splendid friend of young master now right? It’s not like I approve her of being one thought……”
“Err-right…… Hilmelda-san is my friend but I’m more concerned to the other one that called no name-san. She planned to have a drinking celebration with the member of the party she associated with. But those people doesn’t seems to be good people so I was worried”
“Ah…… so it really is about Jester and Hugo right? Those two bad conducts really is causing many troubles. There are even complains coming to the guild because of those two. Their modus operandi was usually to become parasite to any female adventurer who is quite skilled, and even resort to forceful method to keep that relationship. There are many female adventurers who can no longer leave Mizelle because of them. The latest news I heard about them is that they had joined a new party in the capital city and working earnestly there”
(Forcefully become parasite? ...... Seems like my intuition hit home. Those guys have already been dirtbags from a long time before……!)
I can feel my heart suddenly beats even faster than usual. From hearing the word ‘forceful method’ I already can’t keep my cool any longer. Even if they are weaklings with low level and weak skills, they are indeed a guy. If they successfully get no name-san and Hilmelda-san drunk then their chastity is at danger……!
“In my personal opinion, this is the kind of story that I don’t want young master to hear but, having a girl that have reached adulthood as a party member also indirectly means that the other party member have to protect that girl from any harm. And that rules even apply to young master even though young master is still an infant like this. I hope young master will always keep this indirect rule in heart”
“Yes. I understand. Even though I small, I am also a member of the party. It has no relation whatsoever with one’s age. If I just close my eyes and think that problem is not my problem then we can never be true friend ever……”
“You really are blessed with good colleagues, young master. Wendy-san is a diligent girl, she should grow up into a great knight in the future. Monica-san archery skill is also quite high. I feel that young master will depend on her a lot from now on”
Even when Suu-san only praises my party member, I feel happy for it as if I was the one who receive the praise.
But rather than that, the important thing now is saving no name-san. Suu-san also seems to understand that. She immediately hugs me and lift me up from the bath tub.
“I also worried about those two girls. If Jester and Hugo really meant to create more problem again then the order to punish them should comes out immediately. Those guys had already committed serious rule violation today. The first one is that they escaped from battle deserting their party member leaving them in danger. And if they really mean any harm to their party member for the sake of their own self gain then their license as adventurer would be revoked and will receive punishment in accordingly to their crimes”
“Yes…… If nothing happened then it would be for the best but... Suu-san, will you help me?”
When he ask Suu-san about it, She only gives back a light smile. She seems so humanlike with that smile. That expression might be a faulty one as she IS a human but the smile she displays now is a smile that naturally comes out normally from any girl her age. The kind of smile that rarely shown from her expressionless face.
“Then I will ask to master and madam to have a bit night walk together with young master. Is there any problem with that young master?”
“No. Definitely not! Then with it settled let's hurry and go out before the night becomes too late Suzanne-san!”
“…… From where did you know about my name? Well it doesn’t really matter but please keep calling me with the name ’Suu’. Because I don’t even tell madam about the name ‘Suzanne’ so just to keep it safe”
“A…… I-I’m sorry. Seems like I reflexively said the wrong thing… aha… ha ha ha……”
“Young master really is someone who can’t be make light of. Young master really made me started to wanting to observe young master growth from somewhere up close which I can’t. But as I am attached to the adventurer guild of Junegan kingdom, there are definitely chances for us to meet again somewhere in the future. Well, there is also a chance that when young master grow up, he might already forgot me by that time”
I think that the chances of me forgetting about her are close to zero. Once she leaves the house, I don’t know when we'll meet again but ---- if I were to meet again with her, I will definitely remember. If you ask why then it was because I perfectly remember about the person who gives me skill just as much as remembering the person from whom I failed to receive skill from. IYKWIM.
