Chapter 51 (Holy-Day and Visitors)
(TLN : It is a "HOLY" day... in that world...)
I wake up from a faint fragrant tickling my nostril.
"...Nn..."
"Ara, finally you wake up aren't you ?"
"... Good morning..."
For some reason, I returned her greeting.
There's a unique peace and calm atmosphere inside this room.
Morning light began leaking out from the curtain with cream color.
".............."
Ah, I see.
Yesterday I stay in the sacred ruin assembly hall medical room, didn't I ?
"Wait... Headmistress ? what are you doing here ?"
"Good morning, Kurohiko."
The headmistress sat down on the chair by the bedside quietly.
By the way, her foot didn't reach the floor.
Her attire is the same usual gothic lolita.
"Huh ? Mia-san too ?"
Next to Makina-san, wearing an apron dress, a girl with animal earsー Mia-san is there.
When I looked around, other than me, there are only the two of them.
Wait a moment ?
Where did that elderly person go ?
<TLN : Finally we know that old doctor is a male... *sigh*>
"Good morning, Kurohiko-sama."
Maybe because this is medical room, Mia-san said her greeting while lowering her voice.
"Yes... good morning."
There's a table with caster across the bed.
Silver bowl cover lined up on the top of it.
"It's breakfast..."
While smiling Mia-san opened the silver bowl cover.
*Gii*, Makina-san dragged the chair and come a little bit closer.
"It's fine to talk while eating..."
While holding a cup with honey milk on her hand, Makina-san looking at the desk inside the medical room.
"I've asked the doctor who used this desk previously to leave... when we'd come here, he's still sleeping, though..."
That grandpa... did he sleep all this time ?
"So then..."
Makina-san folded her arm which gives an arrogant feeling.
.............................
However, I did not feel any dignity because her foot did not reach the floor.
Well, let's not thinking about it...
"It seems like you've been gone through a lot ne~..."
Nn ?
Is that mean,
"It seems like Kyurie-san had explained to you isn't she ?"
"Indeed. I've heard almost all the things which I want to know. first, I'm glad that you're alright..."
"I'm sorry caused you worry."
"If you want to say that, please say that to Mia... right, Mia ?"
"Ah... w-well... emm... that is..."
Mia-san face flushed red and then she hung her head in shame.
Her awkward smile trembled a little...
"Last night it was quite the sight you know ? she stormed the headmistress room then went 『Kurohiko-sama is ! Kurohiko-sama is !』~, it was quite hectic you know ?"
"Au... I'm really sorry... Last night, I was lost control and..."
"Well, at the time I too already heard the matters about you from Kyurie Velstein, thus we decide if we should see you first thing first. then, when we about to head toward this medical room. and then that happen, nee ?"
Makina-san looked up at Mia-san looking for agreement...
Mia-san lowered her eyebrows as if in trouble.
"Kyurie-sama had stood in front of the room when we've arrived. 『I would like for Kurohiko get some rest for today』 is what she said... I'm really ashamed..."
*petan* Mia-san ears fall flat as if in despondent.
"When I think about Kurohiko-sama, my action last night is quite rash. I'm very sorry and I'm reflecting..."
*Pekori* Mia-san lowers her head.
"That's not true... I'm really happy for you to think of me to such extent."
I smiled wryly while hiding my embarrassment.
To have someone worrying about you to this extent is something to be happy about...
However, despite I'd vow to not make her worry to this extent, to cause her worry like this I should be the one who reflect on one's action.
.......................
Wait,
"Headmistress?"
"Yes, say aaan"
Potato ? the things on the fork approaching me slowly.
"What are you doing, I wonder ?"
"As a reward for returning safely, I will reward you by feeding you like this. you must be hungry right ? hora~, be thankful and open your mouth."
A small potato entered my mouth...
"Nn ? This potato... somehow it has a sweet fragrant."
"ーーtsu"
The headmistress' face blushed quickly.
And then she pouts to hide it...
"T-This is an apple... I was the one who cut it..."
"I-Is that so... if that the case then, that was rude of me..."
"..............."
"...................."
"... Want to eat more ?"
"... Itadakimasu."
*Pokuri*
.........................
Un, the taste is good.
"Fuun, this is enough... you should eat the rest by yourself."
She snorts shyly then put the fork down while being embarrassed.
I directed my line of sight toward the breakfast then looked up at Mia-san.
"Well then, may I eat ?"
"Yes, please eat it ! ah... are you able to eat it yourself ? if you desire so, I can feed you, but..."
"I-It's alright ! I can eat by myself."
The thought did cross my mind but I will endure it here...
If I were to make Mia-san do something like that when I can eat it by myself, I feel a little shy due to her good intention.
That's being the case, to abate my hunger, I immediately set my hand on the dish.
And then,
"Fuu... thanks for the meal..."
"As usual, you can eat well ne~... aren't this makes Mia-san who make them feel it was worth it ?"
"Yes, I feel happy when I see Kurohiko-sama eat my dish !"
"Did you see that ? aren't you glad ?"
Thank you, I lowered my head.
"I'll take it as a praise..."
Makina-san then looked at the clock.
"Since I've heard the matters to a certain degree from lady Kyurie, I didn't come here to hear the same thing... let's end it here for now... Mia, please tidy this up..."
"Understood..."
Mia-san then took the table with caster away.
Then she stopped,
"Ah right, Kurohiko-sama..."
"Yes ?"
After hesitating for a little bit, Mia-san began talking.
"I'm happy for it, but you don't have to be considerate to me. in other words, you don't have to tell me when you're going to go back home."
"But..."
"It's alright... I do it because I like it, when Kurohiko-sama did not come back home, I can use the dinner for breakfast, besides I also go back home with a fixed time... of course, if you have something you want, please do ask me without reserve alright ?"
"Emm..."
"Ahahaha... Kurohiko-sama is very kind after all. if I don't say it like this, you might get tired because of being worried about me."
"That kind of thing isー"
"Kurohiko-sama."
"Y-Yes..."
"Kyurie-sama is a great lady isn't it ?"
<TLN : Somehow I feel like a cheating man... from this...honestly...>
After saying that Mia-san smile gently then she pushes the table with caster away and left.
"She's a nice girl isn't she... that Mia..."
While looking at Mia-san, Makina-san said such words.
I agree with her.
"Indeed, she really does..."
The headmistress then stood up.
"Well, now it's my turn to say the things that I want to say by coming here... since it is certain that this year sacred ruin is different compared to the previous year, I would like for you to be careful a little, that's about it. and also, don't make me worryー nn... well, this time, I'll let it off..."
Makina-san then smiled as if saying it can't be helped.
"Right, if you don't want to make me worry, then remember this well. you may do things as you want. sometimes doing something unreasonable is also necessary. howeverー don't you dare to die? do you understand ?"
Toward her words, I nodded powerfully.
"Yes, I promise."
"Nn, good answer. alright then, it's time for me to leave now."
"Emm, Makina-san."
"Nn ?"
"Is it alright to attend lesson halfway ?"
"What are you saying ? today is 『holy day』 isn't it ?"
"Holy day ?"
"That's why the lesson is on break. it is a day where students can go to the town, or go dive the sacred ruin, basically the day you can use the time any way you want. ... you don't know it ?"
Basically, from the explanation, in this word, a week consist of seven days.
Then, a day equal to the previous world Sundayー is called 『holy day』.
