Chapter 53

“Viscount! You can’t go that way!”

“Huh? There’s a path here!”

“Haah… there’s even a line saying not to enter here….”

“Tsk….”

I was watching other servants work while waiting for the next noble in the hotel lobby.

Everyone just looks exhausted.

Unlike me, even those who had expected these visitors to some extent were struggling because far more people came than anticipated.

“Sigh….”

I’ve never been this busy in all my time working here.

Those who have worked longer than me must be having an even harder time.

I shed a few tears of sympathy for the servants who were working harder than me.

While working in the hotel lobby, the next batch of guest bastards arrived.

I don’t know how many have come just today.

Just this week alone, so many have come.

“Everyone from the Gashikitria family, welcome. I am Sofia, the personal servant of the young lord of Eristirol, in charge of guiding you.”

“Hmm….”

“I will now guide you to your rooms.”

I said that with a smile.

Of course, it wasn’t the natural smile I usually gave Kyle, but a forced one.

*

“Huaah….”

“Are you very tired?”

“No. I’m not that tired.”

This time I lied to Kyle.

If I told him I was fucking tired, he would probably take me off duty out of concern.

I didn’t particularly like such preferential treatment.

“I am a servant working in Eristirol after all. This much is easy.”

I said that while lifting my arms, with my blazer off.

Actually, my body wasn’t that tired.

It was just mentally exhausting guiding and managing nobles.

“That’s good then. If you’re tired, please tell me. I’ll somehow….”

See, even now.

He’s implying he’ll take me off work.

It wasn’t good to worry Kyle unnecessarily.

“I’m fine.”

“Yes.”

Anyway, today I met Kyle after a long time.

Since I went down from the castle in the morning and started working with other servants at the hotel.

After waking Kyle up and sending him off for breakfast, I went to work, so it had indeed been a while.

“Is the young master’s preparation going well?”

There’s still about a week left until the coming-of-age ceremony.

Since it’s such an important event, Kyle needed to be well-prepared.

That’s why servants, including myself, were working hard to prepare.

“Yes, it’s going well. I think my preparations will be finished in a few days.”

“Is that so? That’s good then.”

These days, I haven’t been at the castle much, and neither has Elin, so I didn’t know much.

Louise is at the castle, but….

‘There are so many guests that I just stayed in my room?’

After hearing such words, I never asked about what was happening inside the castle again.

Many elderly nobles came to the castle to meet the head of the family who returned after a long time, so it couldn’t be helped.

Since the head of the family returned after several years.

They would have a lot to talk about.

In the end, only the working servants and maids were having a hard time.

“Miss Sofia, you’ve worked hard today, so please sit here.”

“…Would that be okay?”

Kyle pointed to the side of his bed.

Actually, I wanted to sit because I was a bit tired.

Today I really stood all day.

“Yes, of course. Please sit quickly.”

-Pat pat.

“Then….”

As Kyle said, I sat on Kyle’s bed where he was sitting.

“Oh….”

It’s extremely soft.

Is this the real noble-grade bed that nobles use?

As soon as I sat down, I knew this bed was extremely expensive.

I don’t think I’ve ever used such a good bed in my life.

“Rest here for a while.”

“Is that really okay…?”

I had no intention of resting, but once I sat on this bed, I couldn’t resist.

Was I such a person with poor self-control?

“Yes, I’ll go wash up.”

“Then…. I’ll rest for just a moment.”

Kyle left his room, and I was left alone in Kyle’s room.

Actually, I thought it was too generous for a servant to rest in the master’s room like this, but I couldn’t help it.

It was extremely comfortable….

“Wow wow….”

I never imagined even once in my life that I would have such a good resting place.

I won’t sleep, so it’s not really a sleeping place, but anyway, that’s how it is.

It was really a good bed.

Kyle had been using this for years, which made me a bit envious.

It’s slightly embarrassing to have such thoughts about a boy 6 years younger than me, but I couldn’t help it.

By the way, if it’s this comfortable just sitting, what would it be like to lie down?

“…”

No matter how much the master permitted me to rest, lying down would be a bit too much, right?

But it’s so comfortable that I want to lie down once.

It was the kind of bed where I felt like all my fatigue would disappear if I lay down just once.

Should I call it the perfect balance between softness and a pleasant firmness?

Anyway, I really wanted to lie down just once.

“Since Kyle told me to rest….”

Maybe lying down briefly is also allowed…?

In the first place, how would Kyle know if I lie down here?

How would he know I lay down?

It’s not like there’s CCTV in the room.

“…”

I slowly pulled back the blanket and sat slightly on the inside of the bed.

For now.

I moved slowly in case Kyle might return.

So I could get up immediately if Kyle came in.

“…”

For now, there was no sign of Kyle returning.

I slowly lay down and moved further inside the bed.

The feeling of the soft bed on my buttocks and waist.

I wondered if Kyle or the head steward would tell me where they bought the bed if I asked.

“….”

So I lay on the bed!

And secretly from Kyle, on Kyle’s bed!

“Phew…. Phew….”

I don’t know why my heart is pounding so much.

It’s just lying on a bed.

Is it because it’s Kyle’s bed?

A servant lying on the master’s bed is something that shouldn’t be done.

I think my heart might be pounding slightly for that reason.

-Thump thump…

“….”

There was a nice scent from Kyle’s bed.

The scent that occasionally came from Kyle.

“…It’s nice.”

It wasn’t a bad scent.

I’m not sure if it’s Kyle’s smell or just perfume.

But anyway, it was nice.

“Hmmmm….”

By the way, lying like this naturally relieved my fatigue and made me sleepy.

It felt like I would fall asleep if I stayed like this.

I shouldn’t stay still….

Lying secretly from Kyle…….

“Z…z….z….”

“…”

When I returned after washing, Miss Sofia was sleeping with a pleasant smile on my bed.

I certainly thought she would be resting, but I had no idea she would be sleeping like this.

She was sleeping with her shoes off.

I knew she always slept with her shoes off, even when going back and forth to the capital.

In the first place, Miss Sofia had told me to take off my shoes before getting on the bed from before.

I know that much.

That most people take off their shoes before lying on the bed, except for a few areas in the east.

“Sigh.”

She must have been pretending to be strong in front of me even though she was tired.

She’s always been like that.

The kind of person who feels burdened by my concerns.

“Nyam…. yum….”

I watched Miss Sofia sleeping.

Seeing her sleeping well made me feel proud somehow.

Of course, it’s not a bed I bought, but still, it was nice to see Miss Sofia sleeping well in my bed.

It was a much better sight than seeing a beautiful person struggling because of work.

I was a bit worried because she absolutely refused to step away from her hotel duties, even though there are many people who could handle the hotel work, not just Miss Sofia.

Because suddenly many people came due to my coming-of-age ceremony.

Although not many people usually visit our domain, a lot came, perhaps with the intention of making a good impression on me.

“Hmm….”

By the way, where should I sleep tonight?

I didn’t think Miss Sofia, who had fallen asleep from fatigue, would wake up within 30 minutes.

She would probably sleep like this until tomorrow morning.

“Maybe I’ll just sleep beside her.”

The bed itself is large enough to be called a three-person bed, and I also wanted to sleep next to Miss Sofia.

Sleeping next to her shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Already, the time I spend with Miss Sofia has decreased these days, so I think there’s no problem with lying on the same bed.

In the first place, Miss Sofia probably thought it was fine to sleep in the same bed with me, which is why she’s sleeping in my bed.

No matter how tired, she wouldn’t sleep in just any man’s bed.

-Slide….

I slowly got into the spot next to Miss Sofia.

Fortunately, she wasn’t occupying the center, so there was no risk of falling off.

I had slept with Miss Sofia before.

When we went to the capital, we stayed at the same inn.

But back then, there were always two beds.

“Phew….”

This time, we lay on the same bed.

This wasn’t the first time I had been this close to Miss Sofia.

Before, she had stuck close to me while saying she was fixing the clothes I was wearing.

But this time, the situation was a bit more stimulating.

Next to me was Miss Sofia lying comfortably.

Her large breasts were pressed down by gravity, but they still emphasized their lewdness.

Seeing her chest, I remembered the times I had to wash Miss Sofia until recently.

It was really hard then.

I had to mentally prepare every time I entered the bath.

And even after entering, I had to constantly try not to get erect.

But now it should be fine, right?

We’re both going to sleep anyway.

It might be a bit difficult to sleep, though.
