45 [38] Crisis of the Kingdom of Humanion ①.txt (2/2)

She is Baird-sama's contracted spirit.... I'm not sure if it's a good idea. She has a great presence.''

Well, it's nice to meet you too.

...?

While Lieselotte is impressed and Cunaria returns the bow, Vilm looks at Sandra and feels uncomfortable.

''Huh!''

Virum was watching Sandra as it was, but when his eyes met hers as she slowly raised her head, his body jerked and he looked away as if he was scared of something.

(This spirit... For being under contract with Beirut, her reaction to people is strange. Don't tell me you're afraid of people?)

While spirits have different personalities, it's safe to say that it's impossible for him to be so fearful of the person who is the object of his contract.

There is a possibility that she is opening her heart only to her contractor (Bailudo), but in spite of that, she does not try to approach him herself.

'Oh, I'm sorry. She's very shy...

Hey....

”Doggone it!

The moment Vilm, who finally felt it was strange, was about to call out to Bailudo, who had an expression on his face that said, ”It can't be helped,” a sound like something exploded above resounded in the castle.

「「「「! 」」」」

Reflexively, Vilm and the others turned their eyes in the direction of the explosion.

After a few seconds of silence, Beirut interrupted as if he had noticed something.

''This direction is........it can't be the King's Chamber? Knight Commander Liselotte! I'll be on my way!

Ha, ha!

Lieselotte came to her senses in a panic at the sound of his voice.

''Virum-san and Cunaria-san, too...''

Virum turns away to interrupt Bailudo's words, as if to say, ”I'll go with you.

”I'm sorry, but I'll be coming over later. I can't see Meldina. I'll give priority to her safety.

”...Oh, I see. Okay.

I couldn't see him clearly as Bailudo started towards the King's Chamber at the same time as the words of approval, but I wonder if it was my imagination that for a moment I felt a hateful expression reside on his face.

'Lieselotte,'

Vilm calls out to Lieselotte, who is about to run after Bailudo, with her back turned to him.

''Virum-dono?''

....be careful. I'll be on my way as soon as I find Meldina.

'Yes, thank you!'

Lieselotte wondered at being stopped, but when she realized it was an encouragement to her, she smiled a bit happily and ran off.

'Come on, Cunaria, let's go.'

Yes, sir!

Virum's expression as he runs to the opposite side of the street from Lieselotte and the others seems to contain some anger.

(Master...?)

When Cunaria saw Virum like that, she felt uncomfortable, but began to run after him to find Meldina.
