Speaking of Zanoba.
The other day, he finally managed to complete the Red Dragon figure.
There's differences from the Red Dragon I saw, but since the angle it's framed at is cool, I decided it was a good gift.
The amount of time it took was considerable, but Julie was delighted.
She's a child that doesn't laugh all that much, but after holding her up and showing her it from below she let out, "oh...!" a voice of admiration.
"Master! Grand Master! Thank you very much!"
Julie said that somewhat awkwardly, but she lowered her head in a graceful gesture.
"Humu, from here on out work hard okay."
Zanoba nodded exaggeratedly.
Truly greatly.
Julie as well nodded happily again.
"Yes!"
In any case, Julie's human language has improved considerably.
Rather than saying my method of teaching is good, it might be because Ginger is correcting her way of speaking at every point.
After all, it seems if you quickly revise the words at every time you make a mistake, you'll quickly learn it.
"That's great isn't it, Julie. Make sure you treat it preciously."
"Ginger-sama as well, thank you very much."
Ginger is always on standby at the edge of the room, she brings out drinks for Zanoba and corresponds with visitors.
If I remember correctly, she's renting an apartment room nearby the school.
There's a single room next door to Zanoba's that is intended for escorts, but she refused it saying it was too awe-inspiring to stay in a room next to Zanoba-sama.
Rather than a knight, it's more like a commuting wife.
Otherwise, maybe the feeling of a fanatic worshiper.
It kind of feels like if she was told to die she'd gladly cut open her stomach.
"What is it?"
"I was just wondering why Ginger-san swore loyalty to Zanoba."
I just suddenly decided to ask and Ginger nodded like, great of you to ask.
"I was asked personally by Zanoba-sama's mother to look after Zanoba-sama. Since that time, I made an oath. That I would serve Zanoba-sama with all of my effort."
"Oh, that sure is a beautiful story isn't it..and then?"
"That's all there is to it though?"
With just that, you continue to follow through on that oath even when you're looked at with terrible eyes huh.
No, I guess that itself could be what it means to remain loyal to an oath.
I guess that means if it's a loyalty that will waver even a bit, you're better off just throwing it away from the start.
No, wait.
Come to think of it, I think I read about something like that in an old manga.
Something like feudalistic society is composed of a portion of sadistic people and countless masochistic people.
I wonder if Ginger is a maso. [14]
After thinking about it like that, I think I understood it a bit.
Although, I guess it's not that juicy of a story.
