“So, why is everyone in this room?”
Kent said as soon as he returned to his room. The plan was to return to their respective rooms and spend the time until dinner, but for some reason, everyone had gathered in Kent’s room.
“Even though this room is spacious, it feels cramped with this many people. Hahaha.”
Rachel settled down next to Kent, who was sitting on the bed.
“It’s only for a short while, so I don’t think you need to worry too much about it?”
“That’s right. I think we’ll be called soon.”
Caro and Marie, sitting next to each other, said this, with Caro sitting on the opposite side from Rachel, who was next to Kent.
“That’s right. It’s just a short time until dinner, so… I can only drink water though. Ehehe.”
Al, hugging Kent from behind, said.
“Well, you know. Isn’t it good to get together once in a while?”
Elnet, pacing around the room restlessly, said. They were supposed to be acting separately, but it seemed she had already returned to the mansion before Kent and the others arrived.
“Since everyone is here together… um… how should I put it? Ah, yes, since my younger siblings are also coming to this room, I have to keep an eye on them.”
While Bry, Antoni, and Till, the three younger siblings, were jumping and playing on Kent’s bed, Patty said from her chair without showing any signs of caution.
“Speaking of which, we’re one short?”
Kent noticed that one of the four younger siblings was missing. He found her easily when he looked for her. She was sitting on the floor in a corner of the room, talking with Catherine about something.
“This is the water magic formula… and then this… with this, water… can be made.”
“Oh. I see. Then, what happens in this case?”
“That’s…”
Hanako was doodling on a piece of paper spread on the floor. Catherine was watching with great interest.
“We’ve kept you waiting. The meal is ready.”
A little time passed, and a servant came to announce that the meal was ready.
“We will guide you, please come this way.”
Led by the servant, Kent and the others moved to the room where dinner was prepared.
“Uwah. I’ve never seen such a luxurious meal before.”
As soon as they entered the room, Catherine exclaimed in surprise. A large table was laden with numerous dishes.
“Whoa. Can we eat all of this?”
Bry, Patty’s brother, was so excited that he looked like he wanted to eat immediately.
“There are many rules for aristocratic meals, aren’t there? I don’t understand any of them.”
“If it were a formal meal, there would be table manners and rules, but it wouldn’t be delicious. So, you can eat as you normally do.”
When Patty said this anxiously, Caro reassured her.
“Certainly, if it were a meal following table manners, it would be served sequentially from the appetizers, and not all dishes would be laid out from the beginning like this. You are quite thoughtful, aren’t you?”
“Elnet, I’ve been a commoner at times, so I understand those things. Since everyone might be worried, I’ve decided that my father, who is very strict about manners, will eat alone during your stay.”
Caro replied to the impressed Elnet. Although she said something quite harsh casually, Kent decided to let it slide. As Caro had said, the Baron did not show his face, and Kent and the others enjoyed the magnificent meal together in their usual lively manner.
Afterward, Kent took a bath and returned to his room.
“The bath was amazing again tonight…”
Just like yesterday, he was washed all over by the same members as yesterday.
Knock knock.
“Come in.”
“Master, I’m here!”
The door to the room was knocked on, and Al entered.
“I’ll be your partner tonight. Come on, hurry and take off your clothes.”
“Wait, since when did we become such a couple? Hey, don’t pull my clothes off!”
Al, who was already naked, pulled at Kent’s clothes, trying to undress him.
“Am I not attractive?”
“Huh?”
Al, who had suddenly become quiet, said. Kent was surprised by the sudden change.
“Just kidding. Here I go!”
“Uwah!”
Kent, whose clothes had been taken off without him realizing it, was pushed onto the bed by Al.
“It’s been a while since we slept together like this.”
“Now that you mention it, it probably has been.”
“Well then, first… mwah!”
“Mmmph!”
Al sealed Kent’s mouth with his own.
(Ah, what? My body feels like it’s losing strength…)
Kent fell asleep.
“You haven’t been able to sleep well lately, have you? Please rest well today. But I also need to replenish my magic power, so I’ll borrow your body for a little while. Mmm, ah, it’s overflowing alreadyyyyyyyyyy…”
Al absorbed magic power from Kent’s body, replenishing what he needed.
“Master. Thank you for the meal. Good night. Ah, I have to put this out…”
Al extinguished the lamp used for room lighting and snuggled back into the bed where Kent was sleeping.
“Kent-sama, it’s morning. Huh?!!”
“Uwah! What’s wrong?”
The next morning, Kent was woken up by Clara’s loud shout. He had slept soundly and woke up feeling very refreshed. Al, who had a faint smell of grass, was still breathing softly next to him.
“I can’t believe you’re even touching such a small child, Kent-sama.”
“We just slept together, I didn’t do anything!”
Kent desperately defended himself when Clara said that.
“Master, I looooove you.”
“Are you still saying that even in this situation?”
Al, who had woken up, hugged Kent as if to show off. Of course, both of them were naked. Clara said, looking even more excited.
“I heard a loud noise, did something happen?”
Hearing the loud noise, Caro rushed to Kent’s room.
“Well…”
Clara explained to Caro.
“Ah, that. It happens often, so you don’t need to worry about it. And when you’re tired, sleeping with this child is very comforting.”
“Hyaaa!”
Caro lifted Al and brought him in front of Clara.
“Please smell him.”
“Huh? It’s strange. It smells like the earth, or nature? It’s a very calming scent.”
After Clara smelled Al’s scent, Caro thanked Al and put him back next to Kent.
“How was it? Sleeping while holding him for a night really gets rid of fatigue. I’ve experienced it myself several times!”
“Waaah, can I borrow him for a night too?”
“Absolutely not.”
“Haaaw!”
Clara, intrigued by Caro’s words, asked Al, but was immediately and definitively refused.
