Chapter 249: 249
16th Day of the Wind month . Half a month has already passed in the Wind month, and the incoming month, the Light month, is about to come .
Well, to be honest, it was partly because the past few months have been unusually dense, and I even thought of “Eh? Six months haven’t even passed yet!?”……
I think I have felt lots of changes in me come in less than 5 months . I’m not only looking forward to the future now, but recently, I felt like I’ve also been able to adapt to the common sense of this world recently .
As expected, that would most probably be because I’ve already settled my emotions…… and that I’ve made a clear decision about what I’m going to do in the future, and I guess you can say that I’ve broken through an emotional barrier .
Well, I’ve certainly gone through a lot of changes since I came to this world, but it isn’t just me, as the people around me have changed a lot too .
But well, there are things that don’t change even if I try to change them……
[……Hahhh……]
It’s midnight and the date is about to change . I let out a sigh as I stood in front of one of the rooms .
There was a faint light leaking out from underneath the door in front of my gaze, proving that someone was in this room .
If this was someone’s private room, I would have thought that they were just staying up late but…… The door that is currently in front of me is the door to the office…… In short, a room where you do work .

And the fact that this room has been in use for the longest time in the mansion is, needless to say, a well-known fact…… Well, it might be obvious already, but the one inside is Lilia-san .
Seriously…… Isn’t she working a little too hard? The other day, when we went on a trip together, we talked about how the both of us shouldn’t push ourselves too hard…… Only a few days passed and she’s already like this .
I don’t know if I should say that it’s just like Lilia-san or not, but seriously, I think her personality of being too serious is a problem .
Letting out a sigh in front of the door again, I walked away from the place and started walking in the “opposite direction of my room” .
A little after the date changed to the 17th day of the Wind month, I knocked on the door of Lilia-san’s office .
[……Yes? Come in . ]
[Excuse me . ]
[Eh? Kaito-san?]
Probably because she didn’t expect that there would be someone knocking on the door this late, a voice filled with curiosity called out from behind the door .
After receiving Lilia-san’s permission to enter, I opened the door and walked in . It seems that Lilia-san didn’t think it was me, as her eyes opened wide and a surprised expression appeared on her face .

[……What’s the matter? You’re up at this hour . ]
[No, that’s more of my line here……]
[A- Ahaha……]
Muttering in response to Lilia-san, who curiously tilted her head as she turned her reproaching eyes at me, Lilia-san wryly smiles with the expression of a child whose prank has been discovered .
While letting out a sigh looking at such a Lilia-san, I take out the things I’ve prepared in the dining room earlier from my magic box .
[……Here’s something to refresh yourself . Please take a break for a moment . ]
[Eh? T- Thank you . ]
[Sieg-san has taught me a few things but…… please pardon me if it tastes comparably crude . ]
I’ve brought tea and cookies…… Well, I made the tea, but the cookies are bought from the bakery . It’s impossible for me to bake cookies in a short time, so I prepared the ones I have in my magic box .
Lilia-san seems to be a bit apologetic as she looks at the tea and cookies I’ve prepared, and obediently following what I said, she stops processing her paperwork and took a break .

By the way, I’ve prepared a warm cup of tea and cookies for her…… It’s because I wanted to make her feel sleepy and get rested already but…… Well, I’m not really certain if she would feel sleepy after she fills up her belly, so I could only hope that it happens .
[……It’s very warm and delicious . Thank you . ]
[That’s good to hear…… By the way, Lilia-san?]
[Yes?]
Looking at Lilia-san, who was smiling with relief after drinking tea, I decided to cut to the chase .
[If I remember correctly…… We talked about how the both of us will refrain from pushing ourselves too hard, right?]
[Ahh . errr…… This is, ummm……]
[Lilia-san, please don’t look away . ]
[N- No, I have some business that I really need to deal with as soon as possible……]
Hearing my words, Lilia-san, who clearly looked flustered turned away her gaze…… That gesture of hers looks very cute, but now, there’s an oni appearing within my heart as I continue speaking .

[Heehhh…… . That must be quite the urgent business huh?]
[Y- Yes, that’s right . Well, so, you just happened to see me when……]
[Lunamaria-san told me that most of the work that Lilia-san is doing today is “work that Lilia-san didn’t originally have to do” though……]
