Small rivalry
This story is not from Keiji POV but narrated through a third person POV
— This event occurs on the second day after Misha returned from her training.
[Hey…. Reina, I have something to confirm with you.]
Misha approached Reina first thing in the morning.
On a side note, Reina is in-charge of today cooking since Misha overworked herself on the first day she returned.
From now on, cooking and cleaning will be rotated among them.
Hence, the current location is the kitchen. Reina is frying eggs.
[Yes, Boss. What’s the matter?]
[That…. I want you to be honest, direct with me…. So I want to to know….]
However, it is also difficult to be so direct.
[This kind of thing…. Well, although there isn’t a need for me to ask…but…. This….]
[Boss? I’m sorry but what are you trying to ask? I can’t understand you.]
Misha face turned red for reasons unknown to Reina.
Misha apparently can openly express her thoughts to Keiji but was unable to do so to other people.
[Th-th…th-that. Wh-when I was out on training…. Did…. Did anything… h-happen…?]
[Anything? Boss, what do you mean by anything? It would be hard for a former bandit like myself to understand if you don’t speak clearly Boss.]
[What I am asking is, did anything happen between you and Master?!]
Misha shouted after reaching her limits.
This is the matter that is the most important to Misha.
[You see, I-I intended to return after three days of special training, but it became one week instead…. A-after not being h-home for so long…. D-during that p-period of time, did anything ha-happen between you…and Master?]
Misha’s imagination went into weird directions so she kept shaking her head while feeling afraid.
[Ahh, so that is what you are asking?]
Reina smiled warily.
[Please do not laugh at this matter…! Be-because this is the most important thing to me….]
[Boss, you’re overthinking things. I know the relationship between you and master so I won’t do anything that would get in between the two of you.]
Reina lightly tapped Misha’a shoulder.
This is Reina way of asking Misha to trust her.
[Is-is that…so…? Th-this is for good then…]
[Mmm, so Boss should flirt with master all you want– Ah!]
Reina suddenly remembered something.
[I should report this matter….]
[Wait a moment! Just why did you fall into deep thought?!]
Misha showed an uneasy expression.
[That…. Although I think it’s not a problem….But I should report this matter to you….]
[Eh…? Tell me everything in detail.]
[I went exploring the dungeon with master a short while ago. You see, this happened when we obtained the crown.]
[Ahh, regarding that time. So what happened then? -?! I-It couldn’t be?! Ki-kiss?! You didn’t do something like that…?!]
[…I, because I was tired, I rested my head on master’s shoulder. I only realized that after I woke up. This is the only thing that happened….]
[In other words, you came into body contact with Master for a long time.]
Misha’s criteria are extremely strict.
[Of course, nothing else happened other than that Boss. It seemed that master did not wake me up because he wanted me to rest properly!]
Reina face started blushing when she recall the incident.
Sleeping on someone else shoulder feels like something a lover would do.
[If nothing else happened don’t start blushing! Also, Master is my property! So you must not touch him….]
[I see… I must have been weird at that time….]
[Is there anything else…?]
Misha continued probing.
[There is nothing else.]
[We-well…well… I will allow something of that level. Or rather, Master should be the one at fault for not waking you up. Hence, this is not your fault.]
It felt that Misha casted off her gloominess.
However, Misha still did not show any happiness in her expression.
[…Thinking about the future, it would be safer if I start educating Master.]
Misha was thinking that she would never allow him to cheat.
[Ah, that’s right. There is still one more matter but it is not worth mentioning though.]
[…What is it? Well, it should be something minor from the way you speak about it.]
[I wanted to help master wash his back during bathing so I wore an apron after removing all my clothes. However, master appeared to be panicked. I already hid all the parts that should be covered so I wonder what was wrong?]
[-?! I-If you-!! If you do it on purpose, I will never forgive you!!!]
Misha swore that she will also proactively educate Reina. If not, things will become terrible.
