I woke up with a loud commotion outside.

It was close to dark.

I blinked my eyes and looked around.

Even though it is a tightly closed space, the cool wind blew softly.

My eyes naturally headed to the magical item, that was on the top.

That looked like the item that makes the surrounding area so fascinating.

There was still a wet towel on my forehead.

I slowly lifted up my weak body.

There is no Lexion.

I became sullen at the fact that he was not around, though quickly regained my energy.

If Lexion had been dispatched to the scene of the disaster unlike the original, he would have been searching the scene.

He was not so content that only one survivor stayed with him because they were sick and weak.

It was dark inside the barracks.

The lamp around the bed was dimly illuminating its shape.

The light, which was burning as close as little that it could fade, soon lost its strength and fell.

Then, total darkness came.

It was dark, but I am not afraid.

Fear of the dark is the value of Tiarozety because it wasn’t me.

I got up from the bed with a rustle.

I could hear my stomach growling.

I am very hungry as if I had starved myself for three days.

I looked around to see if there was anything to eat, and then someone entered the barrack.

The woman stood with a fresh bowl of water and oil to light the lamp.

After a while, she talked to me in surprise.

“You’re up, aren’t you?”

“……Daisy!”

I called her name out of joy.

She was a maid who stayed with me before I got back.

Whenever I was hated by retainers for being Tiarozety. She was also a thankful person who secretly helped others.

At that time, Tiarozety was a thorn in the eyes of Sparrow castle retainers.

It is natural as their noble duke was embroiled in a dirty scandal and even was hated by the imperial family because of me.

“Huh? Why do you know my name?”

Daisy tilted her head with a perplexed face.

Calling her name out of joy, I quickly shook my head.

“I mistook you for someone else…”

Currently, I and Daisy met for the first time.

There is no way for me to know her name, I, who had been asleep all along.

“That’s amazing. My name is Daisy.”

Daisy came to the side, answering back without any doubt.

I went back to bed and sat down.

When Daisy filled the oil of the central lantern, the inside of the barracks became brighter again.

It’s bright enough to recognize each other’s faces.
