When I had received Jill’s invitation to come to his mansion, what I became aware of was the possibility that I was conscious of Jill. iZeOjx

But, that didn’t mean I would immediately agree to go out with him. In the first place, I couldn’t imagine it.

The thing was, my fundamental distrust towards people wouldn’t disappear that easily.

Jill kept touching me very naturally without changing his face one bit. Helping me eat while I was injured and so on, even when our lips were almost within touching distance he still remained leisurely. It made me doubt whether he truly liked me or not.

Although I was stumped by it, it was also true that I didn’t feel uncomfortable with Jill because of this. fazg6H

If I sensed sexual desire from Jill, then I wouldn’t be here.

If, like other people, there was a dark desire growing stronger under the surface of his confession, I probably couldn’t stay beside him, nor would I want to.

It was while carrying such worries that I went to check on my house discontentedly, and found it in a terrible state.

The herb field that the Spirits was carefully raising and protecting had been trampled, and my house was also a ruined wreckage.

As Jill said, it was in such a state that I could probably live in it somehow. But, I wouldn’t feel secure here.

But I couldn’t keep sighing over it either. After all, I had to evacuate the important herbs and boiled medicine from the dilapidated house. nx1Qaq

Except, in practice it was actually Jill that moved around, and I was only giving out instructions from behind. Jill had lent me a hand without saying a word of complaint.

Whilst doing that, suddenly the outside of the house became noisy. When I checked it out, I was stunned.

Because I saw Bel, who had gone on a long journey to get some important documents and herbs, bawling while falling off his horse.

He had come home two days earlier than expected. I thought there had been some sort of accident, but apparently he had heard about the demon on his way home and rushed to come back. X16hpm

Bel darted towards me with a limp, and wailed into my chest.

With a tear-ridden voice and a terribly frightened appearance, Bel clung to me.

“During the ride back, I kept wondering if Lilius might die, I was so scared……!”

“……Bel,” jWyJue

“Thinking that Lilius might be gone….. No way, I don’t want that. I don’t want to be alone anymore.”

It was a heartbroken call. Like trying to escape a nightmare, Bel shouted out his real thoughts. At his words, no words came out of my mouth.

I couldn’t say neither “Sorry,” nor, “It’s all fine.”

Because the reason Bel was this scared was I, who had planted this fear and insecurity in him. 0oq4Mm

Bel continued crying until he fainted. At the weary figure sleeping inside my arms, regret filled my heart.

One day, Bel had started calling me “Master”. Looking at his haggard face, I was startled.

Aah, so that was it.

That thing Jill had once said to me, I realised now that this was what he meant. vFmdi6

Since the day I met him, Bel had always smiled as he kept sticking to my side.

Perhaps where I couldn’t see, he had been crying to himself.

The thought of losing everything all in one night. The fear that someone new you met would easily end up dead. Crying over the ephemerality of the human world.

Bel probably had been carrying it all by himself. iIFdBU

Perhaps when he was by my side with a smile, he was pretending to be obtuse to the pain.

How terrible of a situation had he been in, I wonder.

Those words from Jill, I understood it now. And I couldn’t find anything to say to it.

I had not been cherishing the people by my side. Because I didn’t want to trust others, because I didn’t want to be hurt one-sidedly after believing and getting betrayed—I pretended to not notice. 16gVW9

Once I realised my error, the deep regret was etched in my heart.
