Oh, Shishou... Mu~u!" [8]
When I arrived at Zanoba's place, he frowned as soon as he saw Rinia.
"... Oh, long time no see."
"Ou, Zanoba, sorry for not contacting you after I returned nya."
Zanoba was dripping cold sweat, while looking around his room.
"Excuse me, I’m tidying my room a bit, please wait a minute."
And, after glancing around, one doll after another was boxed up and put away.
Hurriedly.
From the important dolls, to the fragile looking dolls.
Inside, Julie was coloring a Ruijerd doll,
In the middle of her works, she began to imitate Zanoba and cleaned up the desk and what's around it.
"Hm~, now it’s fine. Well then, let’s start the talk."
Zanoba is, pointing to the table a little ways away from the workplace.
Julie left the desk immediately and she was walking with [totetote] sounds following Zanoba's command.
"Julie, continue the works."
"Yes, master."
Then me, Rinia, and Zanoba sat down.
However, the still restless Zanoba, is calling Ginger[9] in the corner of the room.
"Ginger."
"Yes!"
Zanoba only called her, but she understood that and stood between the table and the workplace.
As if protecting the workplace.
"So, Shishou..."
Then, after he is satisfied, Zanoba faced towards me.
"Is there some important matter today?"
While Zanoba warily glanced towards Rinia, he asked me.
He is extremely vigilant.
He didn’t said that aloud,
But perhaps, leaving Rinia in this place is a rude request.
I feel bad.
"No, only some trivial matter."
"Hmm?"
With this, there is no way I can ask Zanoba to let Rinia assist in his research.
As expected, no, more that what I expected, their affinity is the worst.
This must have been caused by the incident where Rinia broke Zanoba's doll.
Bullying causes one's spirits to break.
Though it’s not like that in Aisha's case, she has simply reached her limit of patience when her cup was broken.
Though Zanoba looks nonchalant on the surface... But, he will definitely show an unpleasant face if I asked him to have Rinia assist here.
“By the way Shishou, why did you come with Rinia? Although I overheard the talk that somehow she became a maid in your house...."
"Well, various things happened, and now I’m looking for a job for her. "
"Ah, so, so, It’s like that."
Zanoba's eyes swam right and left.
Possibly, it’s seems he has some kind of work in his mind, but it looks like he's still disagreeable to working with Rinia.
Don’t worry.
I won't leave her here.
Even so, such as her misdeed in the past it’s looks like it still hasn't been resolved.
"Well, that's it. Let’s talk about research now."
"Oh, that’s right!"
From what I gathered, Zanoba didn't want anything to do with Rinia.
Yeah, following that he began to talk happily about the Magic Armor as usual.
