Chapter Eighty-Seven: Reason Evaporates!
"It hurts, it hurts! It's too much~! masterγ β
Stroking the head that had been knocked by Firena again, Astolford had tears in the corners of his eyes, and he pretended to be pitiful, and his mouth kept screaming like a complaint.
"You've also given me a little bit of consciousness as a heroic spirit! What do you mean not to touch a girl's skin, it makes me look like a pervert. β
Retracting the dagger, Firena said to Ah Fu with some shyness and anger. In order to beat Ah Fu just now, Firena jumped up completely with physical strength despite the height gap between herself and her. Fortunately, Ah Fu didn't dodge, otherwise with her weak chicken attributes, it would be whimsical to be able to hit him as a heroic spirit.
"But his skin is really delicate, I don't know how to take care of it, but it's better than mine."
Since crossing into a woman, in order to better disguise herself, Firena has deliberately forced herself to imitate various living habits of women for a period of time. This led to the moment she touched Astolfo's skin, and the first emotion that came out of her mind was why Afu's skin was better than herself.
"Hey, hey, I think you seem to have something bothering you just now. So, master, I'm also your Servant, if you have any troubles, you must tell me~ If you hold it in your heart, you'll get sick! β
Seeing that Firena's emotions came out of the trough, Astolfo was not pretending to be aggrieved. Instead, he stood in front of his master and leaned down, smiling at Firena's face, a pair of little tiger teeth were exposed, which made Ah Fu even more cute.
Listening to Astolford's words, Firena was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Ah Fu's smiling face, and was surprised by her behavior. She didn't expect that Ah Fu, who was confused after the evaporation of reason, would be able to retain such carefulness.
"Hmph, nosy!"
Twisting her head aside, Firena said to Ah Fu quite arrogantly, and her action immediately caused the servants standing around to laugh. But in such a situation, Ah Fu, who couldn't figure out the reason, looked confused, and several huge question marks almost didn't hang directly on her face.
"Puff~!"
Catching a glimpse of Astorfo's confused expression from the corner of her eye, Firena couldn't hold back her emotions anymore and burst out laughing.
And seeing that his master smiled, Ah Fu didn't bother to think about the reason why she was angry just now. After sweeping away the confused emotions on his face, he also smirked with Firena.
Blowing away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingertips, Firena then rubbed her somewhat stiff face with a smile, and said to Astolfo:
"Thank you, Astolfo! Let's get along well in the future, I believe in this otherworld, but there are many wonderful things waiting for us to explore! β
"Absolutely, Master! As long as the master likes, be your sword. I, Astolfo, will definitely give it my all! Please rely on me as much as you like, hehehe! β
Feeling the trust of his master, Astolfo stood up, patted his chest, and said with a proud face.
"Well, I will."
Nodding, Firena looked at Ah Fu, who was quite proud, and a stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. For a servant like Ah Fu who has a very different mind and a very unusual demeanor, it is very difficult to control him.
After all, Astolfo doesn't have any hopes for the Holy Grail, and his motivation is largely determined by whether he likes the master or not. However, according to the current situation, Firena can be regarded as having initially established a relationship of trust with him.
"Now, master, master. It seems to be very lively outside, as if something is happening! Let's go, let's go and see what's going on. β
As if he heard a trace of noise outside, Ah Fu, who had just come to the other world and was full of curiosity, directly took Firena's hand and encouraged her to go out to join in the fun.
And after a frolic with Ah Fu, Firena also lost her original sleepiness, and after losing Tina's human pillow, she may not be able to sleep in broad daylight. So he nodded at Ah Fu and agreed to his opinion.
"I'm sorry, master. I wanted to study the contents of this booklet, so I ......"
"It's okay, I'm just going around this ark, and with Dilumudo, I believe there will be no danger. Feel free to study what is recorded there! β
"Hi Master. I won't let you down. β
As for the Directorate's thoughts, Firena picked up some of them from the other servants on the roadside. For the general secretary who wants to become stronger, Firena is of course happy. After all, a servant who knows how to pursue progress is much better than a Shakespeare who only knows how to paddle and shout 666 and always asks tricky questions.
However, the efforts of the general secretary also aroused Firena's desire to brush up on copies. After all, before leaving the forest, she didn't know the upper limit of her level, which would also limit the strength of the servants. And now, after encountering one bizarre incident after another, Firena deeply realizes that the strength of herself and her servants is far from enough.
"Looks like I'm going to find some time to brush up on the dungeon!"
Looking at her level, Firena made up her mind that after solving the magic array in her heart, she would find a time to brush up on all the copies that were suitable in the desert. It just so happens that now that there is Ah Fu's phantom horse, it shouldn't be a problem to hurry.
However, to Firena's surprise, as the largest desert in the Nanya Continent, the number of copies that can be displayed on the map is very small, and it can even be said that it is less than one-tenth of the Endless Forest. If it had been before, Firena would not have thought deeply. But since she learned about the hidden copy, no matter how she looked, she felt that this desert had a huge secret.
"Master, what are you thinking, hurry up! If you go out later, you may miss out on something good! β
"Hey, hey, don't drag me, I can walk by myself!"
Astolfo, who couldn't wait to go out to meet the world, saw that her master fell into deep thought, and interrupted her thinking without saying anything. He then dragged Firena out of the room. When the other servants saw this, they all looked at each other and smiled, and followed.
"Come and meet the hero who saved us, Miss Karen!"
"Thank you Miss Karene for killing that demon and saving us, thank you so much!"
"Miss Karen, she is simply a saint in the world."
ββ¦β¦β
When Firena was dragged to the observation deck on the ark by Ah Fu again, she was immediately discovered by the person in charge of the ark who was directing the aftermath there. With a shout from him, the crew members who worked there left what they were doing and ran to Firena's side to thank her for saving her life.
"Huh? Master: Is your name Karen? How do I remember it's called Filipino...... Woooooo β
Before Astolfo could finish speaking, Firena, who was standing beside him, immediately noticed that something was wrong. Fortunately, Dilumudo, who was standing behind Ah Fu, also sensed that the situation was wrong, and before he could finish speaking, he covered Ah Fu's mouth and dragged him to the back who was struggling.
Damn reason evaporates!
Seeing Astolfo being dragged behind her, Firena breathed a sigh of relief. But seeing the group of puzzled crew members in front of her, Firena once again secretly cursed in her heart for the rational evaporation skills of the people of Afu.
