Chapter 72 \n<h1>Chapter 72: In the Aides’ Room (2)</h1>\nYulena’s POV
I let out a breath of relief when I heard Matilda begin to breathe calmly in her sleep in the bottom bunk.
Lately, Matilda has been looking somewhat distressed.
This tendency has been observed for about six months since we had become aides and began to practice with Wilhelm.
More often than not, when I thought she was watching my movements and behavior, she would drop her gaze to her own palms and make a dark face.\nBut even when I asked her about it, she wouldn’t confide in me.
In the year since we started working together as aides, I have benefited a lot from Matilda’s leadership and her attention to detail.
That was why I was so worried about Matilda’s problems.
…No, it’s not just Matilda.
In fact, the same can be said for Johann and Wilhelm.\nJohann has a strong personality and doesn’t like to show weakness when he is with us.
Even when Wilhelm knocks him down during training, he stands up silently.
However, there are times when he looks along blankly with a sad expression
And then there’s Wilhelm.
He has barely even lived twice as long as we have, yet due to the influence of the Virgil family, he is very knowledgeable about magic materials, and is a strong swordsman.
\n…I have spent the past year in close proximity to Alice-sama, and I have learned that she truly cares and looks out for us.
She understands our situations and has a brilliant mind to think of how to handle them.
So…
Matilda, Johann and Wilhelm.
I’m sure it will all be okay.
With that in mind, I pulled the covers back up and went to sleep.
