Chapter 53 .Misha’s thoughts

I finished shopping for Misha's gift and returned to the mansion.

I was in a hurry to prepare the gift, but I think I bought a good one considering I was in such a hurry.

 I would have given it to her sooner if I could, but Misha is usually at work even on her birthday.

 It would not be good to go and give it to her now. So, for the time being, I started training in magic.

In the past four days, I was able to analyze all the modifications Almire had made to the normal "Frey. All that was left was to put the magic into practice and master it to perfection.

I repeatedly made mistakes until I was on the verge of fainting, and spent the time waiting for my magical power to recover to study and practice with the spear.

 Misha said I didn't have to work this hard, but I had no other choice.

In the future, I would almost surely be walking into my death.

At that time, I will be the first to die if I am not half as good as I should be.

To prevent that from happening, I had no choice but to keep doing the training I was doing now.

I will not just work hard in the shadows, but I will scrutinize the content of my efforts, put in more hours of high quality effort than others, and finally join the ranks of the powerful.

 The road ahead of me is a hellscape in which even such strong people can easily die. No room for error, no room for compromise.

'I'm sorry, Misha."

"After all, there is no other way."

 A strike with all my might. While further refining my spear skills, which had become much more skillful through tireless training, I chose the words I would say when handing over the gift.

⚪️.

"Thank you for your hard work, Misha."

'Ha, it's finally over."

When Misha came back to her room, she had a lot of luggage in her hands. From food to jewelry to small things useful in daily life, she had a lot of things. Considering today's date, those were definitely birthday presents.

 The number of gifts is the number of connections she has spun during the year she has spent in this mansion.

Even Misha's apprentice, who has the status of Schneizel's apprentice, would not have received this many gifts.

 This is Misha's potential. There are as many possibilities in her life as the number of these gifts. She could live happily away from me.

"I'll help you hold it.'

"Don't worry, I'm your servant. What do you want me to do, as a servant?"

"I think of you as one of my comrades, Misha."

    On the way there, I saw a bouquet of flowers with a love letter in it.

 Oh, I see. Misha is cute, witty, to the point, easy to be with, and dependable, so I guess this is the kind of invitation I'm looking for.

I felt like I've just come to that realization.

 Maybe I haven't looked at her properly, even though she's one of my friends. I'm not sure.

"Hmmm, is that something you're curious about?"

"Oh, yes. A little bit."

If Misha's got any bad insects coming to her, I'm going to do everything in my power to get rid of them. Specifically, I'm going to lay out certain things, and then I'm going to spank Nicolas, Schneizel, , and Almire.

I' ve usually turned them down. I like Nor much better."

'I'm glad to hear that."

I'm flattered and a little embarrassed, but, but she turned them down.

As for me, I want Misha to stay by my side as long as possible, but if she wants to be happy, it must be better for her to be with someone else than to have such a different kid exclusively.

If she stays with me, there will come a time when she will definitely go down a definite path at some point. The straight and safe path will surely break off somewhere.

 Still, Saraswathi and Lucy will be with me. They are fighters from the bottom up. They can cut through the rough path with a single swing of their swords. But Misha is different.

 Before it's too late...

" Misha, can't guarantee your safety."

------

"I'm sorry. Maybe I can't change this way of life, no matter what people say. One day, I might even put those around me in danger. If I had Misha next to me when that happens..."

'That's all right, isn't it?"

What?"

Misha, who refused to accept it as a good thing even though she spoke with a great deal of determination, said the following with a smile on her face

'But I still want to watch Nor grow up beside me. I already understand that I can't stop you from doing dangerous things. Then at least I want to make sure there' s a clean and tidy place for you to go back ."

 Maybe he was trying to say that she wanted to take care of me, but depending on how you look at it, this could be a confession.

"I'm usually just waiting for Nor's return here at the mansion. I don't think there is much danger."

"That's true, but how can I be sure?"

'You has always been a man of his word, hasn't you ?

"Yes?"

I could not follow the sudden change of subject, and a question spilled out of my mouth.

"I've been with you for over a year and a half, but ever since you first asked me for a favor, I haven't done anything in particular for you."

 Come to think of it, I doubt that.

'You are only six years old, so you can say whatever you want, whenever you want. If people around you don't approve of it, I'm the only one who will listen to you properly. That is, well, my own response that I came up with after thinking about it for the past four days. I wanted to be the only person in the world where you could be selfish, as if I a parent to you ."

"..."

"So, what do you think? Do you want me to stay?"

"Of course, I do. I would like to be with you, Misha, even if it's dangerous."

 She's my first companion, she's cute, and I can't live without her. Misha is the one who supports my life now (mainly in terms of taking care of me). If she left now, I wouldn't even be able to keep this room neat and clean.

'If that is the case, I will continue to take care of you for a long time.'

 Misha smiled as she concluded.

----

'Can I help you?"

"No, it's heavier than I thought it would be."

"My older brother told me something similar a long time ago. He said, "You'll become a mental patient if you fall in love with someone."

 Wow, that's really it. My love for her is the kind of love she has for her relatives, but if it's pure love, it's a pretty nasty thing.

 Yeah, I know. Because I can't say anything back. I can't say I don't like it after being told this much.

'Then, I'll be counting on you from now on."

"Well, thanks a lot, ."

Thus, the uneasy feeling between me and Misha may or no longer be dissolved, but we are going to be with each other in the future....

 I was just going with the flow, and it was time to give her a present!

I can't give her a present well with the way things are about to go!
