“Oh, Epsilon . Haven’t seen you for a long time . ”
Hearing her master who turned his head to her, Epsilon raised her head in a trance .
“Your wound has been cured . ”
Master used his warm magic to heal the wound on Epsilon’s chest .
“Thank you very much . ”
As her wounds were healed, pain gradually disappeared . It was a healing technique that didn’t waste any magic . Epsilon was always impressed whenever she saw it .
Although it took time to recover physical strength and blood, Epsilon finally breathed a sigh of relief as she looked down at her recovered chest .
Just then, Epsilon noticed .
“— Ah . ”
The amount of slime padded on her chest was reduced .
When Epsilon was seriously hurt, Slime was somewhat reduced . There’s not enough time for her to replenish it, and in that case, her flat chest was exposed .
Master must have noticed it when he treated her wounds .
Epsilon broke down in a cold sweat .
“Ah, emm… Ah, well . ”
What to do now?
Epsilon racked her brain to figure it out, but nothing came to mind .
“Ah! Did you sneak into here to do some investigations?”
Master looked down at her, asking .
There’s her chance!
“Yes, that’s right! I had to disguise myself in order to spy on the cult!”
“I see . You also had your hair cut . ”
“Ah . ”
That’s right, her hair was cut from the fight with Mordred, but that fact is irrelevant . Actually, she had to thank Mordred for giving her a way out of this situation .
“Yes, yes! Disguise!”
“Oh, Epsilon did a really good job . ”
“No, no . You flattered me!!”
She was safe now!
And more importantly, she was praised by her master .
“There’s always a light at the end of a dark tunnel” – it must refer to the current situation .
Epsilon stood up with a confident smile as always .
“Thank you very much, Shadow-sama . ”
Then she saluted gracefully .
“You must have noticed that I was in danger and came to save me . I’m really grateful for master’s deep insight and amazing magic . ”
“Emm? Well, that’s right . Epsilon, you look very tired . ”
“Yes, it really was a dangerous task . Thanks to Shadow-sama, I survived . I will go back and report to Alphsama right now—”
“—Wait . ”
“Eh?”
“Are you going to report to Alpha right now?”
“Yes, I’m going to do that . ”
“Well, hold off on reporting to her for now . Until the embers died… Well, Epsilon, go with me for the time being . ”
“With, with, with Shadow-sama!?”
Epsilon’s face turned beet red .
She didn’t expect that master, who noticed the danger and came to help her, considered her as a partner .
Master liked to act alone, and even Alpha had rarely fought along with master recently .
Epsilon’s heart beat faster with excessive surprises .
“Please, please, please let me go with you! I will work hard!!”
“Please take care of me too . ”
“Then, what should we do?”
“Keep a high degree of flexibility and act according to changing circumstances . ”
“Yes, sir!”
In other words, master wouldn’t explain his plan at this stage .
Master could always accurately predict the future and make a detailed plan . The plan naturally contains a huge amount of information, impossible for ordinary people to understand .
He banned Epsilon from reporting to Alpha, designated Epsilon to be his partner, and came here — there were underlying reasons for all of these .
Epsilon stared at master with great respect .
“Well, Shadow-sama . I just observed a huge amount of magic outside . Do you know why?”
Thinking the magic also had something with master’s plan, Epsilon asked .
Her master kept silent for a while and stared at Epsilon, as if thinking about whether he should tell her the truth or not .
“Yeah, well then let me explain it . ”
Epsilon held her breath and listened .
I might be able to grasp on a small part of the plan . Master must be thinking about why I asked that .
“The magic was released by me . ”
“As expected… but why?”
“In order to imitate [Black Rose] . ”
“— What!?”
[Black Rose] was the core of this civil war .
Epsilon understood it instantly .
She did touch the tip of the iceberg .
She had not yet known the whole plan .
However, if Epsilon’s prediction was right – what a distant future her master had foreseen .
Epsilon was so excited that her heart felt numb .
“Well, that’s it . There’s not much to my story . ”
“I will support you with all my heart . ”
Epsilon clenched her trembling hand, and her eyes, as clear as spring water, were filled with burning emotions .
