“I’m grateful that you’re looking out for me, Lyra.”

Makoto said with an embarrassed smile.

Seriously… When you make an expression like that, it’s no wonder why people think you’re a girl.

“But, you don’t have to worry about me. There hasn’t been strange rumors or anything like that. Besides, even if there were some strange rumors like that, it’ll be fine if you just stayed with me forever.”

“Uhm…”

Makoto said, seemingly embarrassed while scratching his cheek with his right index finger. My heart jumped a few beats hearing his words.

Stay with him forever…? Like getting married…? He knows that I’m an assassin, and yet, for him to even think that… I couldn’t help but feel happy upon hearing those words.

“Y-You know what, nevermind. Just pretend you never heard anything. Anyway, let’s go eat.”

Unknowingly, my face was beaming with smiles. And perhaps Makoto noticed my smile too, but his face was completely red.

And so, Makoto flusteredly turned his back on me and tried to avoid the topic.

His reaction was so adorable that I couldn’t help but giggle.

I followed Makoto, who was still blushing by the way, to the dining room. There, we ate our already prepared meals.

Apparently, this was made by Makoto.

Ever since we started living together, Makoto has been preparing our meals every day.

This was also probably another reason why I thought that Makoto was actually a woman.

“Would you like to attend Akkudoi’s execution?”

Makoto suddenly asked after we finished our meals.

To be honest, I’m kind of interested in attending him, considering all the trouble he’s caused to the orphans and the church.

Plus, he’s also someone I was planning to assassinate either way.

However, there’s something more important that I need to do.

“It’s fine. It’s going to properly be taken care of, right? If that’s the case, then there’s no need to attend it. More importantly, I want to return Rachel’s soul back to her own body.”

Right. Inside of me lies Rachel’s soul. And I want her to return back to her own body.

After all, I can’t just let them break up like this. I want them to talk it out properly.

Besides that, they’re parents. For the sake of their child, I want Rachel to be there for that child, as a proper mother.

“Indeed. You don’t have to worry about Akkudoi, that will be taken care of. I’m really grateful that you’re thinking about Rachel as well. Currently, Lord Edward is a bit tied up with a few affairs, so he can’t move around as freely as he would like. So in this case, let’s look for a way to return Rachel’s soul back to her body together.”

And so, Makoto and I began to look for a way to return Rachel’s soul back to her original body.
