episode_0073

Sarah looked at me blankly and blinked. It’s a face that seems to ask how did you know.

That blank-looking face was so funny that I tilted my head to the side and crossed my legs.

“Why did you think I didn’t know? You think I’m quite a fool?”

Sera could not reply and quietly lowered her head. Do you have no intention of answering, or do you not know what to answer?

Well, honestly, it doesn’t matter either way. Even if it were me, I would have kept my mouth shut if I were in that situation.

No matter what I say, there is no answer. That kind of situation. He chuckled and covered his mouth with a fan.

“Sera. I really liked it when you were my maid.”

He closed his eyes and spoke and acted as if he was sincerely reminiscing about the past.

“Even though I couldn’t work, it was nice to at least have people looking at me. It’s only now that I wonder what it would have been like if I had left it at the mansion even if you didn’t like it.”

I deliberately brought him here because there was a possibility that he would be influenced by my younger brother if I left him alone… … .

Whether I should have enrolled her in an academy, brought her in as a maid, or placed her in a mansion, I would have rather destroyed her completely from the beginning when I saw that she was influenced by others in the end.

“Of course, I am at fault too. When you entered the academy, I was the one who asked you to be a friend instead of a maid.”

I shook my head and said.

“So I really tried to stay as ‘friends’. I was a little sad when you started distancing yourself from me after meeting Ceria, but I didn’t touch you because we were friends, not master/slave.”

He folded the fan with a click and placed it on his lips.

“But you tried to lean on me whenever you were in a disadvantageous situation. Instead of treating me like a friend, you treated me like an ‘object’ that you could use whenever you needed it. Do you know how unpleasant that is?”

“Well, I… … .”

Sarah stopped talking and lowered her head. okay. I guess I have nothing to say. Because even if you think about it, I’m right.

The truth is, I only approach you when things are difficult.

“Ha.”

When I opened my eyes with a sigh, I saw Sarah slumped in place, as if she could no longer stand. It seemed so pitiful that he was trembling so pitifully like a newborn lamb.

Of course, that was just my impression.

“Sera. Even if you think about it, don’t you think that your actions are truly arbitrary and selfish?”

Sarah was shocked and trembled greatly.

“When she was my maid, she made such a fuss, saying she didn’t want to be away from me, and as soon as she made a new friend, she became the last one.”

If you call Sera, Seria comes with it, so there are some things I didn’t sing, but that’s okay.

“Have arbitrarily high expectations, be arbitrarily jealous, arbitrarily disappointed when things don’t seem to work out, and even go to someone else.”

I erased my smile and looked at Sarah with an expressionless face.

“Everyone turned their backs on you, so now you’re trying to lean on me again? Be shameless.”

Sarah, who had been holding back tears and gritting her teeth with her face distorted, lowered her head.

“Is life at the academy difficult?”

Sarah nods slowly.

“Did your new friend push you away?”

Sarah placed both hands on her knees and clenched her fists.

“Are you scared of being alone?”

Sarah, who was shaking, began to cry bitterly.

“Do you want to lean on someone?”

“Yes… … !”

“Hehehe, it’s fun. I never thought I would say that right away without even knowing I was embarrassed.”

After saying that, he got down from the desk. It fell to the floor with a thud and activated a silence curse in the room.

I walked lightly and squatted down in front of Sarah.

“Raise your head.”

Sarah trembled at my words and raised her head.

When Sarah raised her head again, her face was marred by tears. His face was a mess of fear, confusion, regret, and very little hope.

His eyes were shaking so violently that he couldn’t look straight at me, and his complexion was so pale that if it weren’t for the subtle vitality that heated his cheeks, he looked no different from a corpse that had drowned after drinking too much water.

The sight of him frowning and biting his lip. It looked like the face of a person who had a cliff right behind him and could no longer retreat.

“Oh my, your face is a mess.”

He didn’t hand me a handkerchief or wipe away my tears. Just make eye contact and smile sweetly.

“Do you have anything to say to me?”

“Sorry… … . do… … .”

The crying voice was sweet. The tears falling on the floor seemed to have a sweet scent, like nectar.

“I’m not saying this because I particularly want to hear your apology.”

“Woo, wow… … .”

Sarah wanted to cry, but because it was in front of me, she seemed to be holding back.

Is it because he wants to show his good side somehow?

It’s funny. Your image is already that of a usable traitor, nothing more, nothing less. He chuckled and smiled again.

“Sera, do you remember that? Every time you cried, I hugged you and comforted you.”

When I said that, Sarah interpreted my words in a positive light and stretched out her hand towards me.

He’s really self-indulgent to the end. He asks me to hug him because he did something good, and when I accept him, he crawls up without even knowing the subject.

He grinned and swatted away Sera’s hand with a fan.

“But, that doesn’t work anymore, right? She’s not my maid anymore.”

“Ah… … .”

With a short sigh, the life disappeared from Sarah’s eyes.

I could no longer find any hope in the eyes I met.

His eyes were full of regret for the ignorant actions he had committed and the fear of being abandoned and alone.

“You may have been thinking of remaining as my maid, but you left my side on your own feet. I’ll take this.”

He reached out his hand and began to slowly remove the curse from Sarah’s neck.

Sarah began to glow as she felt the feel of the choker around her neck slowly dissipate.

“Ah, ahhh… … ! no… … !! I hate it!! Lady, lady!! no!! Please!!”

Sarah cried and clung to my leg. Please, please don’t do that. Please give me one more chance.

He said he was wrong. I will do anything, so please give me just one more chance.

“Opportunity… … .Opportunity. That’s a good thing. By the way, Sarah.”

With a crackling sound of leather being torn, half of the curse was torn, and the removed curse slowly dispersed like smoke.

He said with a grin as he saw the curse remaining on Sarah’s neck begin to wriggle unsteadily.

“How many chances do you think I’ve given you so far?”

Tuk.

And the brooch attached to the choker fell to the ground.

Damn it――

The jewel on the brooch cracked.

“Well, if you wear a choker similar to that one around your neck… … . I’ll give you one more chance.”

It may be impossible, though.

.

.

.

I was kicked out.

I was kicked out of the young lady’s room.

“Hmm… … .”

That fact came to me so horribly and vividly that I ran out of the dormitory and ran away to find a place where no one was around.

“Wow!?”

After running like that for a while, I tripped over my own leg and fell.

I didn’t feel any shame about tripping over my own feet or the pain I felt when I fell.

‘Don’t you think that’s too selfish?’

What the young lady said was right. Everything, everything was my fault. What should I do now? What should I do from now on?

Even if I stayed at the academy, I would be ignored by everyone. Ceria also pushed me away. Even the lady pushed me away. Now, what can I do?

Are you going back to your hometown? no. My father is going to kill me. They say I’m useless and they’ll kick me out. You’re going to leave me like a lady. No, she’s not bad. Because I did something wrong.

Everything I’ve tried to do on my own so far has ended up being a mess and nothing. Everything I did was unnecessary. I can’t do anything alone.

If I’m left alone like this. What will become of me? I’m not even Ceria’s friend. I can’t go back to the mansion. Not even the lady’s maid. I can’t even live properly at the academy.

“Ah… … .”

It felt like someone was strangling me, no. I felt like my neck was being strangled by a large bug with many legs.

“Ahh… … !”

It feels like a bug is crawling up my throat and entering my mouth. I scratched my neck with both hands as a terribly unpleasant sensation spread from my neck to my entire body.

What I felt at my fingertips was not a bug, but the feel of smooth skin. However, no matter how much I scratched, the unpleasant feeling that bugs were crawling around my neck would not go away.

“Ugh… … . Ugh… … !!”

My throat was sore. It hurt. But even more than that, a tickling and unpleasant sensation tormented me. Even though I scratched, scratched, and scratched again, the sensation only became clearer.

The bug that was wrapped around my neck gradually climbed up my face and entered my ear. And then.

square–

It started making noise. The sound was so bizarre and painful that I jumped up without realizing it.

“Augh!!!”

Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch

Even if I covered my ears, the sound did not go away. why? Because I betrayed you? no. I had no intention of betraying you. I, I just.

Crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch

As I continued to think, the sound in my ears grew louder and more numerous. I felt like my head was full of bugs.

“Stop!! That’s it!!”

‘Are you regretting it now?’

“Aaaaa――!!”

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry

My throat is itchy. My ears hurt. Why, why do I have to hurt like this? okay. That’s right I was wrong. It was my fault. It’s my fault that Ceria hates me. It’s true that I was wrong. It’s my fault that you stay away from me.

I was wrong when I received the choker and now I walked away from the young lady and approached Seria. If I hadn’t said anything, if my subjectivity hadn’t been crunchy, I would have done as the young lady said. Why did I do that then? It didn’t have to hurt like gold. But why do you regret it now when you know full well that it was wrong?

When I tear my head out, I crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, even when I think about it, nothing comes to mind. I don’t want to think, crunch, crunch, crunch. It’s painful. Even if I open my mouth, there’s no benefit to what comes out. I did something wrong. I’m sorry, lady. I’m sorry, Seria. I wish I had done a little better, but I regret it now.

My throat was itchy, so I scratched it. I felt like there was a bug crawling inside my head, so I put my head on the ground. The crunching sound won’t go away. It’s still crawling in my ear. A bug with many legs is crawling in my ear. This happened because I betrayed my wife. This is happening, it’s all my fault

Scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch, scratch.

Then suddenly.

Tuk――

As something fell on the dirt floor, all sounds stopped. A terrible feeling, a terrible pain that felt like my brain was being squeezed. It disappeared like a lie.

All I could hear was my breathing and my pounding heart.

Then, again.

Tap――

There was a sound.

When I looked down, I saw a hand stained bright red. The area under my chin felt strangely warm. It was as warm as if I had poured warm water on my body before washing.

I felt my neck and it tingled, no. I felt a hot pain. But pleasure. No, greater joy. Enlightenment came. I guess the young lady was saying that it’s okay to not be sick anymore.

The choker the lady gave me was red. The choker the lady gave me was red. The choker the lady gave me was red. The choker the lady gave me was red.

“Hehe. found. The lady said she would accept it back if I brought a new choker.”

You were this close.

The corners of his mouth rose strangely. It definitely hurt, but it didn’t hurt. It was stinging and itchy. And it felt good.

I ripped out his neck with my fingernails. There was a handle on the neck, making it easy to open. It was uncomfortable to get my hands wet because the water came out, but it would be okay if I wiped it off later.

I ripped it and ripped it again. Soon, I felt a warm feeling of pleasure all around my neck. I created a fire in the palm of my hand. This was because it was inconvenient for water to keep leaking out.

I lost, lost again, and lost again. Because the neck was thin, it was able to stop water from leaking out quickly. But instead, I lost my voice. Was the sound burning? There is also a saying that it sounds like a burning sound, so the sound is burning.

“――”

I laughed out of joy, but all that came out of my mouth was the sound of air escaping. When I looked up at the sky, there were stars. It’s time for you to go for a walk. If you go see the lady now, you will be able to see her.

He let out a happy air from his mouth and looked around to find the young lady. But the young lady could not come to visit. Oh, it’s so late that everyone has gone to bed. Then, let’s go to the lady’s room.

Standing in front of the young lady’s room, I checked the condition of her clothes before knocking on the door. It was a mess. It looked terrible, covered in dirt and blood. The lady will hate you if you look like this.

I immediately went back to my room, changed into clean new clothes, and checked my outfit one more time in the mirror.

Clean school uniform skirt, blouse, and coat. It’s neat. Red choker. good. I got everything. Another happy sigh escaped.

I came out of the room, straightened my back, lifted my chin slightly, and walked confidently. With a little smile too. It’s exactly what I learned from the head maid back then. As expected, I haven’t forgotten it yet. I am fully qualified to become your maid.

I arrived at the door smiling brightly, checked my clothes once more, and quietly knocked on the door twice.

smart–

.

.

.

I closed the book when I heard a knock on the door.

“Who is it at this time?”

“I’ll go out.”

Hermel lay back on the bed with a sour expression on his face, and I quietly stood in front of the door.

As I stood in front of the door, there was a light fishy, earthy, and slightly burnt smell.

Ssam juice――Ssam juice――

And I could quietly hear the sound of wind being squeezed out, as if my lungs were being forcibly squeezed out.

Hermel tried to jump out of bed, probably because he smelled it, but I quietly walked over and put him to sleep.

“Hehe.”

I couldn’t help but laugh.

I lightly approached and opened the door, and there I was.

Ssam juice――Ssam juice――

Even though the skin on her neck was torn and her muscles were exposed, Sarah was still standing there smiling.

Sarah smiled slightly, like when she first saw me, and bowed slightly, holding both ends of her skirt.

The sight of him smiling and behaving despite being seriously injured was not normal for anyone to see, and the sight of him smiling with a lifeless face was even creepy and grotesque.

“Puhuhuh… … .”

“?”

The sight was so funny that I started laughing without realizing it, and Sarah gently opened her eyes and tilted her head.

“Ah, it’s nothing. I said I’d give you another chance if I brought you a new choker, but I didn’t expect you to come back in just a few hours.”

Sarah must have been quite happy with what I said, so she lifted her chin to show me her neck in more detail, and I could see her muscles twitching as she moved.

“That’s a cool choker.”

Sarah smiled brightly at those words.

It was the most bizarre, completely ruined smile of a human being.
