chapter 189
189. Tailing (5)
“You’ve gathered a lot.”
Zeke said while pressing Soyi’s shoulder, who buried his face in the pillow.
Because it was wearing a thin slip, the feeling of touching it was almost the same as bare skin.
“… … Shut up! Today, for some reason, it hurts more than usual… … !”
“Even if it hurts, bear with it. It’s because I changed to a new training. Was it worth the daytime training?”
“Huh… … . It was very difficult… … . I don’t have time to catch my breath… … .”
On the night after training, Zeke’s massage to loosen the knotted muscles has become a ritual.
Of course, as Zeke, I also spend time with the students I teach,
It wasn’t bad to hear about the training and life in the academy.
“… … Well?”
Suddenly, a familiar energy was captured outside the mansion.
The owner of the aura is a fucking saint.
She was snooping in front of the house.
“I thought maybe one day it would be like this, but… … . Impatient is still… … .”
“Ha ha—. Yes? Instructor, why are you like that?”
When Lily’s sudden visit stopped her hands for a moment, Soyi raised her face.
“No, nothing. continue.”
Zeke shook his head and moved his hand again.
Kwok-
Kwok-
“Haagh! I really can’t live without this… … .”
“Is it cool?”
“Yes, really… … . It hurts, but it’s so cool. And it’s warm… … . Like mom and sister… … .”
“Well? It seems that your mother and older sister are also very united. … .”
“Oh, no, no! that’s fine I’ll learn later! Because I want to learn and do it myself… … . Alas!”
Surprised by Zeke’s words, Soi replied.
Even now, there are only a few people waiting for a massage, but there is no way to increase it here!
“Okay, so let’s do that.”
“Yeah… … .”
Let’s spend about 30 minutes like that and relax your body carefully.
Soyi was already asleep, as if her mind had melted along with her body’s fatigue.
“It happens like this every time.”
Zeke picked up Soyi and left the room.
Then, as always in the hallway, Iriel, Yuri, Serena, and even a newly added swear word.
He sat in a chair and waited for his turn.
Zeke glanced at Lily and twitched his eyebrows.
“It’s Lily.”
“… … .”
For some reason, Lily can’t make eye contact and averts her eyes slightly.
“You’ve been coming since the first day of training, you’re very strict.”
“… … Who cares too much!”
“Then let’s go back.”
“… … .”
Then Lily closed her mouth tightly, opened her eyes upward, and just glared at Zeke.
In fact, the previous misunderstanding has already been cleared.
‘A filthy bastard.’
It wasn’t a short time of 30 minutes, while Serena and Iriel were talking to each other while Zeke and Soyi were in one room.
In addition, Lily had already experienced Zeke’s massage during Dave’s days on the continent.
There couldn’t have been any muscle soreness or fatigue from working with him in all directions to save the world for 10 long years.
I already knew to the full extent of how addictive the massage was.
In a situation where you might be able to wake up tomorrow morning with this body that is still throbbing, Zeke’s massage is really like an oasis in the desert where you were struggling with thirst!
Lily just stares at her but doesn’t answer.
Zeke nodded as if he couldn’t help it.
“Yeah, what. Then wait quietly. Instead, the fourth turn is the last turn for the next three months or so. To be honest, if you take turns with other students, those who have been trained before you will feel very unfair.”
‘… … A cowardly bastard.’
Lily’s lips pouted forward.
“As expected, Zeke! That’s it!”
On the other hand, Iriel’s angry expression brightened at Zeke’s words and shouted in a happy voice.
In fact, the fact that Lily came in was the same as having another turn, so I was getting annoyed inside.
And as if Serena and Yuri were thinking the same thing, their faces brightened noticeably.
“hehehehe, Zeke, now it’s my turn ♪ Is Soy asleep again? Then quickly hand it over and let’s go in.”
Feeling better, Iriel even hummed while crossing Zeke’s arms and said.

Meanwhile, Karen has a fallen Rosnante in front of her.
She raised her eyebrows and scratched her head.
Rosnante, who was suddenly trying to show something, was told that he was misunderstood, and he coughed up blood from his mouth and passed out.
“… … Ugh, this is very embarrassing. If it was in the North, we could just bury it without anyone knowing… … . Well, no one has seen it, so how about that?”
But these islands are not northern.
It was impossible to dispose of this corpse, or Rosnante, in the northern way.
Since then, the second prince of the Empire.
If someone saw him lying on the street, vomiting blood, the next day the imperial palace knights would go all out and search the surroundings like teeth.
I had no intention of revealing my identity in front of the empire.
“Fortunately, it seems that he is still alive… … .”
However, Karen couldn’t figure out where the councilor lives in the unfamiliar land of the empire.
I was deeply troubled about what to do with Rosnante.
Then Karen um, nodded.
“I don’t know if it’s too complicated. It’s most convenient to ask the princess about these things.”
Karen put Rosnante on her back and pursued Lily.
And, of course, it was Serena Joheiden’s mansion with Zeke Kleiman.
“… … Yes? You entered here… … ? Write, then it’s a bit awkward… … .”
Zeke’s threatening not to come at night from next time was still vivid in Karen’s mind.
Zeke was an unofficial trainer whom Karen respected and looked up to, but that was it, and scary was scary.
At that time, I didn’t say anything, but that day when I was misunderstood as an attacker.
Karen, who didn’t blink even when a blue blade flashed in front of her eyes, realized what fear was for the first time.
Goosebumps covered the whole body and the trembling body as if it had become a herbivore in front of a beast.
The moment I met him, I had the illusion that he was already dead.

My body trembled at the thought of going to visit at this time and making Zeke Kleiman feel bad.
“Ugh, that doesn’t work. never can Write, then… … . Eh, it would be better to leave it as a gift.”
Shaking her head, Karen gently set Rosnante (not yet a corpse) on the floor and grabbed the stone.
And then threw it to the side of the dozing guard!
Whee ae ae ae liquid—!
The stone flew with a sharp noise and hit the pillar on the side of the guard.
Quaang!
“Why, what kind of guy are you!!!”
The guard, who had been dozing off leaning against the window, was startled by the loud sound that came from next to his ear and looked around.
And what caught his eye was Rosnante lying on the floor.
“… … What is that… … ? dead body… … ?”
* * *
Rosnante managed to open his eyes after a long time.
“… … Ugh, Mo, the body… … .”
As soon as I woke up, I felt terrible pain.
Feeling like being stabbed with a needle running through your body.
It was the same pain as when Zeke first carved a filter.
“… … Whoops. Ah, it hurts. Oh right! Princess Lily!!”
Rosnante, thinking for a moment about how he had become like this, jumped to his feet.
He shook his head to wake up his hazy mind and searched for memories from a moment ago.
Apparently, he shared swords with the assailant who was chasing Lily.
He was a strong opponent that could not be defeated with a decorative sword.
Because of that, he eventually decided to use mana.
‘By the way, the assailant… … . You said you were Princess Lily’s maid… … . Ha, what kind of maid is that? So, that means Lily wasn’t dangerous… … .’
When the situation was sorted out, a sense of relief came along with the feeling of collapse.
“By the way, where the hell is this place… … ?”
Rosnante realized that he was lying on the bed.
He turned his head in all directions, scanning the darkness.
Then, a momentary thought came to Rosnante’s head.
The person who moved himself here is definitely her place of work.
‘Sir, no way, this is Princess Lily’s mansion then… … !’
Since he did not know his own home, it was clear that he had no choice but to move to Princess Lily’s house.
Rosnante swallowed and opened his mouth.
“… … Princess Lily’s maid, isn’t there?”
However, no answer came back and only silence remained.
“… … Umm, it’s not right to visit in the middle of the night. It will be even more embarrassing if I see you tomorrow morning… … .”
Really, it was just a dark rationalization that if you were lucky you might see Lily in her nightgown in the middle of the night.
Rosnante stood up and came out into the hallway.
A hallway where nothing can be seen in the dark.
that buck
that buck
Rosnante walked through the darkness, examining his surroundings.
In the meantime, a small sound came from somewhere.
-Huh. ugh ugh-
‘Well? this… … , what are you talking about?’
At first glance, it sounded like a woman crying.
It felt eerie, but Rosnante moved in the direction of the sound.
And in the distance, I could see light leaking through the slightly open crack in the door.
“Haaa—. lower jaw-. Ugh-.”
‘Is it the sound of Princess Lily crying… … ?’
And the closer the room got, the clearer the woman’s cries became.
‘… … No, this sound… … . It doesn’t sound like that.’
I knew I couldn’t go on like this, but
It was so clear that he would regret it if he got close,
Rosnante’s steps continued to move forward.
“Oh, it hurts! it hurts! Zeke! Live, kill! There, it’s just that it’s a sensitive area! I can’t squeeze it! Mandible! Boo, it breaks!”
“Really, I didn’t even exercise at all… … . You haven’t changed in the past or now. It’s a world where there’s not much mana right now.”
“What do you think of the human body!!! hahahaha!”
What Rosnante caught his eye was Lily lying on the bed with only a thin slip on.
And it was Zeke Kleiman, who was overlapping on top of it.
Rosnante’s eyes, which contained that scene, shook mercilessly.
