45 Run Away and Hide
I was made to change into a pure white dress with a lot of lace, they even had me put on a waist-length black wig.
Haru and Sati praise me with cute, pretty, and beautiful every time while I"m feeling dejected. I even had makeup, and I"ve completely been made into a beautiful lady no matter what angle I look at.
[Rei-niisama, how wonderful…]
Haru becomes enthusiastic about me being such a pretty girl.
You probably thought ‘Don"t say that yourself", right? I really am perfectly made up almost like a princess from somewhere, I tell you. Sati"s make up skills are dangerous.
[If the material is good then it can look pretty even with just a bit of makeup~, I"m sure even Ragna will be happy once he sees the current you, Rei-kun.]
Sati Eroica nodded in satisfaction.
[Sati-anesama, I also want to match(outfits) with Rei-niisama!]
[That"s a great idea! Let"s also get you changed, Haru Ahanna!]
The two women started choosing a dress while ignoring me. Just please do what you want already.
After picking a few choices, Sati lined me up with Haru and checked the balance.
Checking my whole body at the same time, Sati let out a dissatisfied voice as she observed from the side.
[H~m, if you"re going to be this cute once we"re done, as I thought you"ll want to have some b.r.e.a.s.t.s, should we also make your underwear a girl"s?]
That single sentence made me lose all my strength.
It really is true that one can find an immense strength in the scene of a fire, I was able to open that d.a.m.ned heavy door by myself.
I took a step over the spread of dresses that the two of them made, I managed to run away thanks to their delayed start, but I who was able to successfully escape got lost.
While thinking of the long dress" hem as a bother as I wander aimlessly, I turn my feet towards the faint voices I hear. Are these voices Aleph"s and Mikhail"s?
When I peeked through the tiny gap of the door, the two were quietly cleaning the room.
Speaking of Aleph, he sure is strangely good at using the broom even though he"s a former prince. Well because he also has long experience of being an adventurer, I guess he should be able to do house ch.o.r.es of that level.
It seems they both use the sword as their main weapon so it looked like they were excitedly talking about swordsmans.h.i.+p.
Even though Dragonians normally fight close combat using their fists, Ragna being able to use a sword was because Mikhail taught him, I see.
As I was eavesdropping, Aleph suddenly looked this way. I hurriedly evacuated.
No matter how much of a beautiful woman I have become, I really don"t want to be seen by others. Let"s quickly play as Hal"s little sister and get changed.
I must return to Sati"s room, it"s probably this way, I think…
My instinct was a miss, the place where the direction of the wind was blowing lead outside.
I ended up going out. What the heck should I do, Ragna and his little brother will surely end up seeing me if I stay here.
I tried to go back, but because it seemed like Aleph came after me and his calling voice is quite close, I made a U-turn. As I tried to conceal myself in any way possible, I hid in the nearby bushes.
Suddenly, a rumble shook in the quiet plateau. It was the sound of a giant deer that was dropped from the sky.
[This is my prey! I managed to get my hands on a pretty big akas.h.i.+na deer, I might just be able to win against Ragnani with this!]
The little brother Lloyd appeared after it. It looks like the owner of the dropped item is this guy. That scared me, lower it a bit more gently, won"t you?
Aleph came outside after hearing the tremor. This is bad, close, too close, it feels like he"s gonna notice me if he turns this way.
I curled my crouching body into a small ball.
Without noticing me, Aleph gave the deer Lloyd brought a simple look.
[It"s an amazing prey, it must have been hard to carry it up to here.]
[Riight~!? It was extremely heavy! You can also eat this later.]
[Is that so, thank you.]
Lloyd laughed with disheveled face. Ciel probably heard the uproar and came out.
[It"s kind of lively, what"s with this deer?]
[I caught it! Isn"t it huge!?]
The entrance was completely blocked by Ciel who came out.
You guys, don"t stand there,I"m begging you! Isn"t it fine if you go and look at the prey(up close), then I will take that opportunity to stealthily go back to the den!
Without my granting my wish, even Ragna came flying back in the end.
As I am in the shadows, the sunlight is blocking me.
Or should I say, what"s that, it"s three times larger than Ragna. A lizard? Is that a lizard?
Ragna who was carrying a giant reptile with s.h.i.+ny gold scale on his shoulders leisurely descended to the ground.
Although the akas.h.i.+na deer is amazingly big enough to press Ragna on his back, it"s still no match for the golden lizard.
Ciel saw through the lizard"s state while in shock.
[Isn"t this the Redworth Dragon? It is the most violent amongst the dragon species living in the Habartalt mountain range, I also heard that it"s hard to hunt it even with an rank adventurers" party. Although it"s body is an extraordinary delicacy, it is a legendary ingredient that rarely appears in the market.]
[I have also just tasted this once during an occasion. I never thought that a day will come that I will be able to see it in its entirety.] (TN: It"s still whole.)
[Hahhahhah. Oh Lloyd,it looks like it"s my win today as well.]
[Da, G.o.dd.a.m.n ITーーーー!!!]
Ragna"s sonorous laughing voice and Lloyd"s lamentation echoed throughout the mountain range.
