“…ter, Master!!”
When Isshi’s vision became clear, Premier’s face having a worried expression was seen.
While his consciousness was gone, a little bit of time probably flow by.
But he was convinced that it wasn’t a dream and that he actually met with the Evil God Adeki.
(I’d been hit by such a frightening aura)
Even if he tried to say that it was an ordinary dream, it was too unbelievable.
“N, yeah, I’m okay. I seem to have been a little light headed.”
When he says so, the worried Premier breaths a large sigh of relief.
Isshi felt deeply moved while watching her.
The Evil God said that the homunculi were things he made.
If that’s the case, for I who am affected by the Evil God, that means they are not irrelevant existences.
(Therefore, do you want to protect them. Even if you turn countries and this world to into your enemies . . .)
However, the Evil God said that he only encourages growth in the end, and did not have any influence toward altering his personality.
Indeed, with the Evil God’s feeling towards them as their creator, there might be some aspects that affected him.
(But, I do sympathize with their unjust circumstances, and it is true that I intend to fight. Even now my feelings, and the Evil God’s feeling are mixed and can’t be distinguished. Then, it might not be wrong according to this current feelings.)
Isshi, that had felt perplexed after coming to this strange world and was confused about what he shall do, came together and put an end to the issue.
“Master, em what happened? To stare at me so intently. It’s a little embarrassing.”
Premier said as she blushed and turn her face down.
He hesitated for an instant, while looking at her, whether he should tell her the truth that was told by the Evil God or not.
However, he thought that this was probably a secret that he alone should carry to the grave, so he immediately told her something else.
“Sorry. That reminds me, that I haven’t properly thanked Premier yet. As always, thank you.”
When he said so and stroke her head, she become even redder than before.
“Hoo, it is still possible to feel embarrassed even as a Princess. All of us in front of Yakata-sama, still need to keep appearances (katana) as such.” \?\ this one might be wrong.
Said Arge to tease.
“Princess?”
“Ooh, that’s right”, she said, nodding.
“Premier is the girl who is first in number. She is a special existence regarding us Homunculi, nojayo. Because of that gift.”
“A, ah, No! That’s a secret.”
Premier in panic blocks Arge’s mouth while casting her eyes down.
Her face becoming more and more red like a boiled octopus.
“Yareyare, seems like you’re close with each other.”
While Isshi expresses such a remark, he begin to think about the next action.
And after thinking a little he declared to everyone.
“Alright, then at once, let’s go back to the fort. But, there may be a second, or third attack that comes from bandits because this place is too exposed. It is necessary for us to take measure before that happens.”
The surrounding girls tighten their loosened expression and nod at his words.
And Premier as their representative became stern by Isshi’s voice and asked.
“Then, finally we start it?”
To her question, he gave a big nod.
“That’s right, let’s get started. First move is to march toward Jirumu the nearest town from our territory.”
When he declared so, a red star in the sky, twinkled mysteriously.
