thing else you need, don’t hesitate to ask me.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

Reika stared intently at Agnes as she ate her salad.

 

“What are you looking at?”

 

“What’s the problem?”

 

“Hmm?”

 

“It’s written on your face.
You have worries.”

 

Agnes didn’t expect she would ask her this because whenever Reika opens her mouth, she always brags about herself.
Agnes hesitated for a while and soon shook her head.

 

“…it’s not a big deal.”

 

“So, what’s not that big of a deal?”

 

“I don’t think it’s something we can talk about here.”

 

Agnes looked around her and said softly.
Then Reika swung her own finger around her hand to her left and right.

 

“Now, you can say it now.
The conversation between the two of us will not go outside.”

 

“…….”

 

“Tell me quickly.
Is it because you’re worried that I won’t stay? Ha, it’s because of my popularity.”

 

“Well.
There is a spy in the castle, but I have no idea who it is.”

 

At least Reika isn’t a spy.
Agnes confided her troubles inside.

“Spy? Like the rat I caught back then?”

 

“No.
It was an assassin back then.
I think he’s been in the castle for a very long time.
That’s why I don’t know anymore.”

 

“What? Was it just that kind of problem?”

 

Reika, who was still listening, leaned back as if she had lost interest.
Agnes was furious.

 

“Do you know how important this is? I don’t know who to trust, so I can’t do anything or say anything.”

 

“Oh, my.
I see.
Okay.  You can trust me.
Whew.
What should I do?”

 

“Catch it? Do you have any spy-finding magic?”

 

This time, Agnes leaned forward to Reika.
Reika smiled confidently as she always does.

 

“Do you know how many spies are trying to steal mana stones from the magic tower? It’s my daily routine to catch a rat every day.”

 

“… Can you really catch it?”

 

“Yes.
Because I can do it.”

 

“Archmage.
You are the only one I can trust in this castle.”

 

It’s not yet clear if Reika can really catch the spy, but for the first time, she felt reassured.
Then the Archmage twitched her lips and bragged about herself for a long time.
Agnes listened quietly to that time and responded.

It was a long day.

 

After she explained the situation in detail to Reika, the time to sleep quickly passed.
Agnes changed her clothes to go to bed, but the bedroom was too dark as the lights were off.

 

“Ney.
Turn on the light.
I can’t see.”

 

However, there was no reply from the surrounding area to the extent that it felt chilly.

 

“Ney?”

 

“Help me out.
Agnes.”

 

“Why don’t you change the way you pop out a bit? Eugene.”

 

Now she’s not surprised that he’s popping out like this.
Agnes sighed and turned on the light herself.

 

“What’s going on this time?”

 

“I need your blood.”

 

Eugene’s figure hidden in the dark was revealed.

 

Eugene held out his hand.
It was so imposing that Agnes almost inadvertently held out her hand.

 

“Is it to unlock the seal?”

 

“Well, somehow.”

 

He approached carelessly and snatched her arm.
Agnes frowned at the forceful grip.

“How much do you need?”

 

“Hmm? 5 minutes?”

 

“Five minutes? No way!”

 

Eugene’s fangs digging deeply into her forearms felt intense.
At the same time, blood began to drip through them.

 

“Oh! It hurts.”

 

“Hold it in for five minutes.”

 

Eugene said with his blood-stained lips.

 

“What is this?”

 

“I’ll give you something you want in return.
Think about it in five minutes.”

 

He continued to suck her blood and drank it, leaving only those words.
At first, she felt only the pain of biting the flesh.

 

Then she was just annoyed and angry towards Eugene.
She hoped time would go by quickly whenever this person comes.

 

About three minutes later, she slowly remembered what she wanted.

 

‘Should I ask Eugene to find a spy?’

Four minutes have passed, and only one of her many wishes remained in her head, and the rest are gone

 

“Ugh.
I think I’ll live a little.”

 

At exactly five minutes, Eugene opened her mouth.
Unlike the first time, his face is flushed.
Agnes, on the other hand, was in a mess.
She had to take a deep breath several times because she felt nauseous and dizzy.

 

“Did you drink well?”

 

“Hmmm.
If I had known this would happen, I should have drunk it sooner.”

 

“What about my wish?”

 

“Oh, tell me.
I can listen to it as much as the blood you gave me.”

 

She hesitated for a moment and opened her mouth.

 

“….
I miss Laslo.”

 

It doesn’t matter if it’s a dream.

 

She’s sick and tired of seeing the barracks through the bird.
It would be good to see him in a dream smiling and moving.

 

“Is that all? There’s nothing I can’t do.
Tell me when you want to come back.”

 

“Hmm? It’s just a dream, so I just need to wake up…”

 

At that moment, her feet went numb.
The light of the sphere and Eugene’s face disappeared at the same time.
And when she opened her eyes again, she couldn’t believe what she saw.

 

“Agnes?”

 

Laslo was in front of her.
