“Now this is a bliss…” (Claria)

As the orders of the Galhala Queen and the Galhala Queen, Druid Oz and Claria take a day’s rest and relax at the mansion. They’re now resting and enjoying their time together, sitting at the couch that Druid Oz put on the balcony of the mansion while gazing at the capital city from the balcony.

Looking at how the citizens and the children of the kingdom are still walking around the capital leisurely with big smiles on their faces made them satisfied. It means that they have succeeded in protecting the kingdom.

The couch is a couch made by Druid Oz, since the frame is made from the woods of Druid Oz’s summoned tree, Druid Oz easily made the couch just by commanding the woods to bend itself. Druid Oz made a big couch that has its backrest adjustable. The cushions are made from lake lamb’s wools, making it very comfortable to sit at.

And since the wood of the couch’s frame is still alive, Druid Oz made use of the dull branches to give the couch the ability to provide massage. With her head resting on Druid Oz’s shoulder, Claria is enjoying the bliss of the massage, Druid Oz’s shoulder, and the warmth of his hand.

(I’m melting~ I’m melting~ It would be even more blissful if…) (Claria)

Even though this rest day would be a great opportunity for her to get closer to Druid Oz, her little sister won’t let her monopolize Druid Oz alone.

“Hehe~ Hehe~ Roasted fish…” (Charnia)

With her head on top of Druid Oz’s lap, Charnia is in the middle of dreaming she’s eating a delicious roasted unknown fish that Gor or Druid Oz made. Looking at how her little sister is sleeping with such a blissful face, Claria could only let out a small sigh.

Not to mention that the magic beast cubs are all sleeping while cuddling with each other in their surroundings.

(I guess this is already more than enough, huh…) (Claria)

“Claria,” Druid Oz called Claria with a gentle voice.

“Hm?” (Claria)

“Promise me one thing,” (Druid Oz)

“Promise you?” (Claria)

“Yes. I need you to remember. I’m just a clone. And the other clones are not different from me since we share the same soul. So if I disappear, you should ask for protection from my other clones,” (Druid Oz)

“W-What are you saying?” Asked Claria as she is somehow anxious because of Druid Oz’s sudden words.

Hearing Claria’s response, Druid Oz made a small smile for a while before staring at the distance with a grim face that made Claria felt anxious as well.

“Nothing. It’s just that… I’ve been getting a bad feeling lately… A magician’s hunch, this might be the first time I’m hoping it would be wrong…” (Druid Oz)

*******************************

The day of their rest went very fast. After relaxing on the couch for about two or three hours, they do some other fun activities together with the magic beast cubs, making them even closer.

At night, Charnia nags her mother to sleep at Druid Oz’s mansion as well. After getting her permission, she joyfully reports it to Claria as she is able to have a sleepover.

(How did it come to this…) (Druid Oz)

Currently, Druid Oz’s arms are being used as living pillows by both Charnia and Claria.

(In this situation, I wonder should I be happy or not…) (Druid Oz)

Being able to get close with the two princesses of the Galhala Kingdom to the point that both of them wanted to sleep together with him is something that probably no one could accomplish. But the hellish argument between the two princesses before they finally agree for the three of them to sleep together made Druid Oz felt too fatigued that he couldn’t even feel he’s a lucky guy for being in this kind of situation.

Even though Claria had become quite bolder lately, she’s still not as bold as Charnia that clings to Druid Oz and nagging him to let her sleep in his room. After arguing for about fifteen minutes, they finally agreed for the three of them to sleep in the same room.

And here they are, sleeping as they use Druid Oz’s arms as their living pillows.

(And this girl… Even though she had slept quite a long time in the afternoon… She really is a heavy sleeper, isn’t she…?) (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz let out a small sigh as he decided to sleep, but of course, even though he’s spending the day resting, he’s still monitoring his summoned insects that are still surveying the parameter. He monitors all of the groups, the group that is searching for the fragment of the demon emperor’s seal, the group that is standing idly circling the Galhala kingdom, and the group that is watching over the Griftania empire’s capital that is now had become the demonic base.

Before sleeping, Druid Oz thought of sending another group of his summoned insects to infiltrate the Griftania empire’s imperial castle, but as he’s monitoring them, something bothered him.

(I-I can’t focus…) (Druid Oz)

The nice fragrant emitted from Claria that is using his right hand as her pillow entered his nostrils. Druid found the fragrant pleasant, but at the same time, it’s awaking something bad inside him.

(Self-control… Self-control… Self-control…) (Druid Oz)

“Ren, you’re awake…?” Claria suddenly called out Druid Oz.

(S-She’s awake!?!? T-That surprised me…) (Druid Oz)

“Y-Yes, I’m awake…” (Druid Oz)

“You can’t sleep too…?” Asked Claria. Her voice is somewhat smaller than before.

“Y-Yes, It seems so… You too?” (Druid Oz)

“I see… Me too…” Answered Claria with a smaller voice.

(She can’t sleep…? Even though she had been just fine all this time, I guess she’s just trying to distract herself from the upcoming danger, huh…) (Druid Oz)

“Is there something bothering you?” (Druid Oz)

“Nn…” (Claria)

Unlike the usual brave and dependable general princess, Claria looked small and timid. The facade she usually uses crumbled as Druid Oz could see the clear anxiety on her eyes.

In reflex, Druid Oz draws his right hand that Claria uses as her pillow and draws Claria closer, letting her head rest at his chest.

“E-Eh?” Claria exclaimed in surprise at Druid Oz’s surprising action.

“Will you tell me what’s bothering you?” Asked Druid Oz as he embraces Claria’s body with his right hand, giving her a sense of security.

(What the hell am I doing…) (Druid Oz)

“I guess what mother said to me is right,” Claria mutters to herself with a tiny voice.

“Hm?” (Druid Oz)

“N-Nothing!” (Claria)

(Mother?) (Druid Oz)

“It’s just that…” Claria reaches Druid Oz’s shirt and grips it.

“Claria?” (Druid Oz)

“I have been getting scary dreams lately…” (Claria)

“Scary dreams?” (Druid Oz)

“Yes… I keep on getting long dreams of a terrifying war. You getting killed. And even though the kingdom, my mother, my father, Charnia, and grandpa survived safely. At the end of the dream, I couldn’t find you,” Claria grips Druid Oz’s shirt even tighter as if she’s making sure he won’t go anywhere.

Hearing it, Druid Oz chuckled.

“What are you saying, silly. I’m here, Aren’t I?” said Druid Oz as he embraces her even tighter.

“I’m here. Well, even though this is just a clone, I ensure you that even if this body disappears, the soul will still remember you. My other clone will rush here to accompany and protect you and your kingdom. So you don’t need to feel anxious about anything,” (Druid Oz)

“Nothing bad will happened to us,” (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz’s words felt convincing as it destroys all of the doubts and anxiety inside Claria’s heart.

But not Druid Oz’s.

To Claria, his words are a guarantee. But for Druid Oz.

It’s nothing more than a prayer.

***************************

Their rest day was quickly over. At the morning, they have their breakfast together with Gor and Druid Oz’s other familiars. After finished breakfast, Charnia returns to the royal palace to continue her princess training, Claria continues her duty of supervising the soldiers and there is also the royal meeting that she needs to attend as the supreme general of the kingdom as well.

While for Druid Oz, he once again refuses the invitation of attending the kingdom’s royal meeting. Since he believes that the meeting will still go smoothly with the presence of the Galhala Queen, the prime minister, and Claria.

This time, he wouldn’t just stay idle inside the capital, monitoring his familiars and his summoned insects.

This time, he’ll go on his own feet.
