I Became a Different World Gravity Wizard

46 – Intruder?

I took Chloe to my room and the maid healed my wounds. I went back to my room and fell asleep.

And the next day.

I woke up early in the morning as usual, changed my clothes and left the room.

“Put burnt items in a box next to them.”

“Yes.”

Because of the previous day’s incident, the maids were repairing the mansion even early in the morning.

“Are you awake? Rail boy.”

Just then, the maid Jerry found me and bowed to me.

Other maids also stopped what they were doing when they saw me, and bowed their heads.

“Are you going to training this morning too?”

“No. Today, I am also planning to help repair the mansion.”

“Yes?”

When I said I would help, Jerry’s eyes widened.

“It’s okay. Rail master. Yesterday, thanks to the method the young master taught us, we were able to extinguish the fire in the early stages. But how are you going to get dirt on your hands?”

“Huh.”

I laughed out loud.

It’s rather counterproductive when a guy whose face is covered with sweat from early morning says something like that.

I took the handkerchief she was carrying from her bosom and handed it to her.

“Take a break while wiping your sweat.”

As I said that, I lifted the heavy load Jerry was carrying instead.

Through the use of lightweight magic, the objects were as light as feathers.

Jerry and the maid also blushed as if they were heavy lifting things.

Look, both of them had a hard time.

“Where can I take this item?”

That’s how I helped other servants for a while.

It is said that the fire in the mansion was quickly extinguished thanks to my teaching on how to extinguish the fire, but the damage from the fire was greater than I thought.

Originally, Chloe would subdue it at once, and quickly put out the fire in the mansion.

But because I drank with me that day, I couldn’t subdue the intruder, and the suppression of the fire was also slow.

As much as that, there were a lot of burnt things and a lot of collapsed walls.

In some ways, it’s also because I drank with Chloe.

If I had leaked some information to Chloe and his servants, I would have been able to subdue them faster.

So I helped them until the end to relieve some of the guilt.

Still, thanks to my telekinesis magic and lightweight magic, the mansion’s repairs went much faster.

The repair, which should have taken several days, was completed in one day, so it must have been done quickly.

As the sun went down and the repairs to the mansion were almost finished, I asked the maid who was carrying things next to me.

“Do you know what happened to the intruder?”

“Yes. I heard that the guards subdued those who set the mansion on fire.”

“I see.”

No matter how good Gilburton was, it would have been difficult for him to run away from the guards with a tired body.

And those who break into the duke’s mansion and burn it down will surely be put to death immediately.

In a way, it was an obvious punishment, but I couldn’t help feeling bitter because there was someone I knew in it.

“You worked hard from morning to night. Rail master. Thanks to you, I was able to finish the job quickly. Thank you.”

“Yes. Everyone did a good job.”

After the repairs, I gave an appropriate answer to the servants who bowed to me and moved to the restaurant.

Usually, I would have taken a shower in the bathroom before going to the restaurant.

However, there was more work at the mansion than expected, so it was already past dinner time, so I was hungry and decided to eat before taking a shower.

At this time, Chloe must have already eaten.

With that in mind, I stepped into the restaurant.

“You came quite late. Rail.”

And contrary to my expectations, Chloe was still at the restaurant.

Have you finished your meal yet?

But Chloe’s table was still full of food, and the cutlery was clean as if she hadn’t eaten a piece of meat.

“Were you waiting?”

“Yes. It’s only natural to have dinner with your fiancé.”

“… ….”

I was taken aback by her sudden words.

But I said to the Duke standing next to me without showing off as much as I could.

“Bring me some food.”

“Yes. Young master.”

Then Duke left the room to get my food.

As Duke left the room, Chloe looked at me and smiled.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No, just looking at your face makes me smile.”

Chloe put her hands on her chin and looked at me as she continued.

“And, as you said, Rail, we have decided to reduce the amount of this tribute.”

“I see.”

I nodded lightly.

Fortunately, Chloe seems to have been moderately shocked by this incident.

With this, to some extent, the same situation as the original has returned.

That is until I heard Chloe’s words continue.

“Rail. What to do with the intruders who set fire to the mansion yesterday?”

“Why are you asking me that?”

“Rails saved my life yesterday. So this time, I’m going to do it your way.”

For a moment, I shut my mouth.

Chloe saved her life, so she said she gave me a choice. But she has no reason for Chloe to give me that choice.

If she doesn’t know that I know someone among the intruders.

I don’t know how she knew, but Chloe seems to have noticed that I had a connection with one of the intruders.

And that meant that I could be punished along with them if I did something wrong.

That’s why I have to answer carefully.

If they say they don’t want to be punished, they’ll be sure that I’m related.

It was natural to tell anyone to punish them, but for some reason I couldn’t give that obvious answer.

“I hope you don’t punish them.”

I looked at Chloe.

And when she asked me why, she quickly racked her brains over how to answer.

“Yes. Okay.”

But contrary to my expectations, she didn’t ask me why.

“Don’t ask why.”

“If Rail says so, there must be a reason.”

Chloe said she was trying to get a debt from me, but in another sense it was like she created a debt from me.

So I told her honestly how grateful I was for her.

“Thank you. Chloe.”

Perhaps he didn’t expect me to say thank you, Chloe’s eyes twitched slightly.

“I have prepared a meal for the young master.”

After a while, the Mays came into the restaurant with food.

Food was placed in front of me, and I took up the cutlery, feeling awkward at the unfamiliar thank you.

But I didn’t eat even though there was a luxurious dinner in front of me.

For some reason, the foods were eels, oysters, and garlic, all of which were said to be good for men’s bodies.

“Don’t you eat?”

“No. Let me eat it.”

At Chloe’s prompting question, I nodded and ate the food.

The ingredients were all suspicious, but the taste was excellent, so I ate all the food without leaving anything behind.

After such a satisfying dinner, I went straight to the shower after sweating profusely from repairing the mansion all day.

Instead of simply washing my body in the shower, I put bath powder in the bathtub and soaked myself in it.

“Ha ha.”

I can feel that the hot water relieves my tiredness all at once.

The fragrant rose scent of the bath powder calms the mind.

As I was soaking in the bathtub, I suddenly remembered Euler’s words to return to the mansion by tomorrow.

Come to think of it, today was the last night I stayed at Chloe’s mansion.

On the first day, I wanted to go back to the mansion right away, but fortunately time passed quickly because a lot happened in that short time.

But why did Euler tell them to come home by tomorrow?

With such miscellaneous thoughts, I left the bathroom, changed into the clothes Duke prepared for me as usual, and moved to my room.

Perhaps it was because he had been taking a long bath, the time was approaching midnight before he knew it.

Before I went to bed, I locked all the doors in the room.

The habit of locking the door is a habit I picked up when I was almost assassinated in the mansion.

No matter how safe the mansion is, you never know when an enemy might invade.

And for some reason, I felt like I had to lock the lock today.

I locked all the doors and sprawled out on the bed.

Perhaps it was a duke’s bed, the soft cushion feeling was so cozy that it surpassed modern technology.

Of course, it could be that I feel that way because I’ve only ever used a cheap bed in a gosiwon.

Thanks to the various artifacts that help you sleep, your eyes slowly begin to close.

“… ….”

But for some reason I couldn’t sleep, only my eyes were closed.

My heart starts beating faster than usual.

Even though it’s winter, for some reason, my body is so hot that sweat drips down my forehead.

Anyway, the food I ate last night seems to be the problem.

In the end, I had no choice but to get out of bed and practice my magic to increase my mana.

And that was the time when he used his psychokinesis magic to pull things around him.

Clap.

The sound of unlocking the door was heard.

And the door slowly begins to open.

It’s an intruder.

As expected, even if it’s the duke’s mansion, you shouldn’t be vigilant.

Kikiiik.

With the sound of the door opening, the image of the intruder caught my eye.

I quickly lightened my body with lightweight magic and charged at the intruder.

Then, with one hand, he subdued the intruder’s arms and hit the wall with one hand as if threatening.

Perfect.

There will be no more perfect suppression than this.

I could see the intruder’s body trembling slightly as if he didn’t know that he would be overpowered by me.

The intruder was shorter than me, so I lowered my head slightly to see the intruder’s face.

“…… !”

And when I checked the intruder’s face, I was taken aback.

“Why did you come into my room? Chloe Krafdon.”

Because the intruder who sneaked into my room was Chloe Craefden, the daughter of the owner of the mansion.

And in her hand, which was subdued by her hand, was a small pillow.

Kloel met my eyes and said with a slightly reddened smile.

“Is it strange for a married couple to sleep in the same room?”
