Guided by Roze-san, we arrived at a place that didnât seem like the inside of a dungeon. Within the wide space, I can see what looks like a tower.
This reminds me of the room I stayed in at the Six Kings FestivalâŠâŠ That suite room that was expanded with Space-Time Magic that it even had blue skies and grasslands. Perhaps, this means that this place had also been expanded by Space-Time Magic.
[This place is huge. Moreover, that towerâŠâŠ How should I say thisâŠâŠ t looks rather ancient, doesnât it? No, itâs not like I think this place would collapse anytime soon, but the exterior looks kinda old.]
(That, you see, is the house where Kuromu-sama used to live~~)
[Eh? Is that so?]
(Unnn. Thatâs the house she used to live in when she lived in the Central Demon Realm~~. Roze wasnât born at that time yet, but Roze heard she lived there with the Six Kings-sama.)
Indeed, I knew that Kuro once lived with the Six Kings. However, I was surprised to see the house from those days still standing tall like this.
Although itâs a large tower, let alone Magnawell-san, itâs of a size that even Megiddo-son would have difficulty living in. Perhaps, what had been preserved here wasnât the whole house, but just a part of it.
(And so, and so, itâs Rozeâs home now~~)
[Youâre the one managing this place, Roze-san?]
(Unnn, unnn. But, but, there are so many rooms, most of which arenât being used. Thatâs why, the other rooms are just being preserved with State Preservation Magic~~)
[You have been entrusted with the house filled with Kuro and the othersâ memories huh. Roze-san must be very trustworthy then.]
(Ehehe, you think so? Hearing you say that makes Roze happy. Roze likes Kaito-kun, you give Roze compliments.)
Roze-san, bouncing up and down on my shoulder, is very cute. While being soothed by her cuteness, I entered the tower under Roze-sanâs guidance.
Thereupon, I arrived at a room that looked like a large reception room. There were mannequin-like dolls lined up along the wall, and the atmosphere somehow feels eerie.
(Kaito-kun is Human after all, so I prepared the hospitality of a Human home. Roze knows it, you know? Human dwellings have walls that are lined with Maid-sans, right?)
[âŠâŠHuman homes, well, royal castles were certainly like that. In other words, those things lined up over there are maids huh.]
(Unnn. Since theyâre maids, Roze made sure theyâre quite strong. They all have the power of a Baron-rank.)
[Now thatâs quite amazing.]
(Ehehe, Roze is good at making Magic Dolls and Golems. I also make use of them for dungeon management.)
I see, those things lined up really were meant to be maids huhâŠâŠ To be honest, they look like mannequins without faces or clothes, so theyâre a little creepy, but Iâm not going to complain when I think about how hard Roze-san worked to prepare them for me.
But still, to make such Magic Dolls with the strength of a Peerage HolderâŠâŠ I guess thatâs to be expected from a candidate for Duke-rank, she must be very powerful even without the Six King Golems.
[Roze-san is really amazing then.]
(I got another compliment! Kaito-kun is a great guy! Youâre so kind! Iâm really happy!)
[AhahaâŠâŠ ahh, speaking of which, I brought some souvenirs for Roze-san. Do you like cake or pudding?]
(Pudding!? Cake!? Roze loves both! Roze especially loves pudding. Theyâre so sweet and smooth and Roze is really happy when Roze eats it!)
Following the advice that bringing them something sweet would make them happy, I bought her some cakes and puddings from a pastry store in Symphonia Kingdom, and it seems that bringing her these was correct.
From how excited she looked, it seemed like pudding was her favorite food, and Roze-san was bouncing around, as if to express her joy.
[Why donât we eat them then?]
(Unnn! Ahh, Iâll have them prepare us some tea. Wait for me~~)
As soon as Roze-san said that, a maid (temp) standing by the wall started to move and brewed a cup of tea for me. Meanwhile, in front of Roze-san was a drink in a paper carton with a straw stuck in it.
While looking at them, I took out a pudding from my magic box and placed it in front of Roze-san, to which Roze-sanâs body happily jiggled.
(Pudding~~ Pudding~~! Pudding is the taste of happiness~~!)
[Errr, it does come with a spoon, but I wonder if thatâs too big?]
(Donât worry~~ Roze is good at eating after all.)
As she said this, a translucent tentacle extended from Roze-sanâs body and received the spoon from me. Thereupon, dexterously moving the spoon, Roze-san scooped up the pudding and plunged it straight into her jelly-like body. Ahh, I see, since Roze-san doesnât have a mouth, when she eats, she puts the food directly into her body like thatâŠâŠ
The pudding that entered Roze-sanâs body disappeared in an instant, and Roze-sanâs body happily shook again.
(Delicious! Itâs so delicious! Kaito-kun, thank you. Iâm very happy with the souvenir.)
[Iâm glad you were pleased.]
(Roze too prepared some sweets, so Iâll have them bring them here~~)
As I foresaw at first, Roze-san is extremely cute, and just talking to them like this soothes me. Just like that, basking in the relaxed and comfortable atmosphere around us, I enjoyed tea with Roze-san for a while.
