he masters didn’t care about the well-being of the slaves.

“My honourable Master…”

I glanced away from Meia’s still weeping gaze.

“Why would you wash your horse here? Are you…?”

The words that were about to go out were clarified.

This was similar to when a kind teacher would ask for the student’s reasoning to soothe the student who just had an accident.

“I was very wrong and I apologize, my lord!”

Meia shouted, lying face down.

“No, No, I’m not trying to scold you.
I’m asking why.”

I stuttered in panic and motioned for her to get up.

Meia, who noticed, slowly got up and answered my question.

“That horse is Kurz, whom I look after in the stable, and while I was bringing water to wash him, he escaped into the garden.
I was surprised and chased him, but the water came out because Kurz accidentally touched the magic stone with his foot.
I should have stopped him, but seeing him running around made me happy……”

“Hmmmm..”

Due to Meia’s personality, I didn’t think that she would’ve done that according to her own will.

‘It’s kind of cute.’

There was an innocent young horse who failed to grasp the situation.

It’s eyes seemed to be wide open, as if begging Nineina not to scold Meia.

In modern times, this was nothing to be angry about.

A girl running around with a horse whilst splattering water.

That was all.

But not here.

The slave dared to play tricks using their master’s magic stone.

That is the reality here.

‘How do you use this card?’

Nineina fixed the corners of her lips that were loosening softly and made up a cold voice.

“That’s no excuse, you should’ve taken good care of the horse.
That’s your job.”

“I will accept any punishment sweetly.”

“It doesn’t make any money.”

“Please give me any harsh punishment.” 

When I laid the groundwork, Meia hardened her face and said that.

The hardened eyes weren’t bad.

‘This would be useful.’

That’s the first impression I’d have to put to the test.

I’m worried.
I’ve never punished anyone before.

“She should be punished, but I don’t know what kind of punishment I should give…..”

“What?”

Meia heard me talking to myself again and asked.

I raised my chin and spoke as arrogantly as I could.

“I’m still thinking about it, I want to think about it for as long as possible, because I want to inflict a very heavy punishment.”

“Ah…”

Although it was too pretentious, Maya nodded her head with a serious face.

“I’ll think about it for a day or so.
Come to my room at this hour tomorrow.”

“Yes, Master……”

Meia’s shoulders drooped.

Meia and I are the same age, but Meia is more affectionate.

On the surface, she looks like a little boy, so she is quite cute.

“Get out of here.”

I almost laughed, but I sent Meia off without displaying it.

‘It’s not a one-time decision.’

For the time being, I was thinking of keeping Meia by my side whilst watching her too.
How can I use the female heroine?

‘Of course, at the same time I’m alive, but…….’

Maybe it was a fleeting worry.
It’s no use if I die.

“I want to be alone.”

I let the people go away.

If this was going to be a short-term life, I thought I should enjoy this sunshine as much as I could while I was in the garden.

Sitting idly in bed and being here was the same, but I was quite happy to see the sky.

I saw a huge oak tree full of green leaves.

The sunlit leaves shone white and regained a fresh green color.

This oak tree must have lived for at least a few hundred years.

Compared to trees, the human lifespan is short.

I wanted to have at least as much as the average lifespan of a human, much less than a tree.

“How long can I live?”

“It’ll be five months at the very most.”

I got a reply back to what I said casually. Or I got a casual reply back to what I said.

You asked, so I’ll tell you.
Even if I’m a poor person with a short lifespan.

(QC/N: first sentence = what she thought Cassian was thinking when he replied.)

That man is probably the only person who can say that without hesitation.

“Five months…”

I liked him, who doesn’t show a single sign of sympathy, so I smiled brightly.

That calm look made me happy.

“Why…?”

“What?”

I was in a good mood so my legs bounced happily.
