Chapter 22

「… Darn… Miria is there…」

When I peeked through the peep window at the side of the secret passage’s exit, I saw panicking Miria aimlessly wandering in my bedroom. I was certain she would look for me around the premises, I was totally wrong.

「N~… I can’t go over just like this, let’s go to the library…」

Judging such, I changed my direction without a hesitation. I began walking.

The secret passage naturally didn’t lead only to Cristea’s room. There are a few entrances including bedroom of her parents, office, and library.

Only the exit leading outside has been enhanced against enemy trespassers and the passage is unusable without precise directions, but…

Cristea who thoroughly checked the secret passage advances without losing her way.

The first time she checked, she lost her way and ended up overhearing the lovers’ talk of her parents in their bedroom, so she won’t get lost anymore.

…

「That’s why, perhaps… is what we thought, so Miria and I split up」

Although Miria was panicking in my bedroom, Shin didn’t know where would I come out from, so he pretending to be asleep so I would let my guard down. Gununu, this strategist…

「Other servants don’t know about this, so don’t worry about it」

Oh, thank you very much, that will help! As expected of Shin!

「I will naturally report to Master though」

Ah, that’s not a thing to be grateful about, rather, it’s no thank you! Stupid, stupid~!

And so, I was scolded by my parents once again. Eh, this development stinks of deja vu again? I’m fine already! I’m full of this development, okay~!?!?
