My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

peratingly condescending words, but I had a bad premonition, so I shut my mouth.

I didn’t know why, but I felt like I shouldn’t oppose this girl.

I followed after her and left the room.

Although there were places in the building that were slightly collapsed, its cleanliness was maintained.

「Where are the others?」

Not seeing my friends, I felt anxious and raised my voice.

Although I felt a presence on the lower floor, I did not know if they were my friends.

The young girl snorted.

「You are the only one who slept for two days.
Idiot.
The others are downstairs preparing to eat.
You too will be helping out starting tomorrow.」

I did not know why, I had to follow her orders, but following up on my hunch just now, I nodded without retorting.

Rather, I had slept for two days?

That’s why my stomach was also empty.

「Oh! You’ve woken up, Satou!」

「Tsukasa-kun, good morning–!」

TN: ohayou means good morning, but it can be used as a greeting, so no matter the time of day, it will still be used.

「It took you long enough.」

Seeing that I had been brought here by the young girl, Waki-kun, Asahina-kun, and Ueno-san stopped their meal preparations and their faces brightened.

「Tsukasa-kun?」

「Ah, good morning.」

「Morning–!」

「Good morning.
Is your body alright?」

Subsequently, Hosoyama-san, Tsuda-kun, Nanase-kun, and Zeal-san came out from the neighboring room.

It seems that except for me, everyone was alright.

「Let’s end the joy fest there, and hurry up with the preparations.」

Everyone shuddered at the young girl’s loud rebuke, and running off in all directions, everyone began the meal preparations.

Just what did the young girl do to them.

Rather, who was she?

Obviously, the interior didn’t match the exterior….

「Hosoyama-san, is there anything I can help with?」

I called out to Hosoyama-san who was the one closest to me, taking out the tableware from the cupboard.

Hosoyama-san shook in surprise, and then she shook her head. 

How should I say this, her movements were stiff.

「I, It’s fine! Satou-kun should be the one who should rest.
At least, tomorrow, you’ll definitely need to rest.」

I could only nod when told this by the cleric Hosoyama-san.

Certainly, I was still a bit sore, so let’s carry something light so as to not put a burden on my body.

「Now then, I ought to explain to you what will happen from now on.」

Bread, soup, and salad were fine, but the dinner was in no way normal, considering the place.

After eating, the girl clapped her hand and said this.

There were so many places where I could retort. 

Just where did she get the bread and the vegetables, and who was she.

「…excuse me, but would it not be better to introduce yourself to them first?」

Zeal-san stated this after he raised his hand.

Then, did that mean that no one, with the exception of Zeal-san, knew who she was.

「That’s right.
I didn’t know what to call you by the entire time.」

「Certainly.
We came here because Satou had been kidnapped by the robot.
…while we were still confused, we were told something like ‘you won’t eat if you don’t work’ and were assigned to clean up this place.」

Ueno-san and Waki-kun complained.

I see, it seems that they had already been abused by her free-spiritedness. 

Or rather, it was amazing that you spent two days with someone you didn’t know until I woke up.

「I see.
Come to think of it, I had yet to introduce myself.
My name is Noa.
I am the mother of Kurou, the blacksmith that you’re acquainted with.」

We froze at the bomb that was dropped without hesitation. 

「Even if you’re going to the demon territory, while you are here, I will work you extremely hard so that you’ll be useful.
Nice to meet you.」

Seeing the broad grin on that face, Zeal-san was the only one whose face turned pale.
