Chapter 1111
An unexpected experience
“M-Mr. Takumi. How is it?”
“Uh, yes. Very soft and comfortable.”
“So-soft…!”
Currently, I was on my bed and resting my head against Claire’s lap.
Apparently, Ms. Jane had given her some advice, which she promptly put into action.
Not only that, but Ms. Lyra and the other servants smiled warmly at us and then left the room.
“…”
“…”
Both Claire and I were embarrassed by the situation, and we averted each other’s gaze and stayed silent.Now that I thought about it, this did not seem like a good way to cool down when one had a fever.
“We-well, I suppose it is nearly time for you to sleep!”
“Ye-yes… Indeed.”
Claire could not stand it any longer, and so it came to an end.
How long had that been? I could not tell.
But it really was soft and warm…
“Ah…!”
“Claire? What is…”
“Ah, my legs…”
“Oh, right. Yeah. That can happen.”
Just as she was about to get off of the bed, she let out a little yelp.
She had been sitting awkwardly, and with my head on her lap, so it was no surprise that her legs would fall asleep.
“Sister Claire. Does it hurt?”
“Li-Liza… St-stop…!”
“Liza, it’s best if you don’t touch her right now.”
“Really? Okay!”
“Wuff.”
Liza had suddenly become curious, and reached out and touched Claire’s foot. And as I felt bad, I had to ask her to stop.
Leo let out a sigh…
But Claire recovered a few minutes later, and was able to leave. After that, Ms. Lyra entered the room.
Apparently, she meant to stay the night, just in case my condition changed suddenly.
“Please sleep peacefully. You too, Lady Liza and Leo.”
“Yes!”
“Wuff.”
Liza and Leo didn’t mind that Ms. Lyra was there at all. And as Leo wrapped herself around Liza on the floor, Ms. Lyra placed a blanket over them so they could sleep. RАΝοΒΕS
“Thank you, Ms. Lyra. I’m sorry for all the trouble.”
“Not at all. Please leave everything to me. I shall take good care of you.”
Perhaps it was because of the fever, but it was strangely comforting having Liza, Leo and Ms. Lyra nearby. And like that, I allowed the sleep to take over me…
One week passed after that. And as we were going to Ractos, we gathered in the entrance hall after breakfast.
My fever was mostly gone the morning after. And while I was forbidden from using Weed Cultivation or training, I recovered without any issues.
“It’s finally time.”
“Yes. Though, I am worried if they’ll actually come with me…”
“Hohoho. You have, Leo, the Gift and a lot of interesting ideas. There is nothing to worry about.”
“Yes. And we will help you.”
“Thank you, Sebastian and Alfred.”
They both nodded encouragingly.
Today, we would be meeting with the people who I was going to hire to come and work for me in Range village.
Well, there were some people who lived far away and could not make it. But we would be meeting them some other time.
By now, the house in Range village was nearly finished, and so Mr. Haines and Ms. Isabelle were already starting to send the things I purchased.
“Liza. Ms. Delia will be coming today. So you should play with her.”
“Sister Delia! Yes!”
“Wuff-wuff.”
Liza was happy to hear it. Even Leo was wagging her tail with excitement.
Apparently, Mr. Peter and Mr. Kanat were also coming… I was not going to hire the later, but he wanted to talk to me…
