You look tired, Shiki-sama.

Sleepy

Oh, Komachi, you're here?

I'm always beside you, Shiki-sama.

Always.

How deplorable of me, who is always yelling at you, to be in this sorry state.

I'm sorry, Komachi.

Whoa, it's like when the one saying 'don't look at me so lewdly' is really the criminal.

The sentence is life imprisonment in my heart.

Eh? What did you say?

Nothing.

Oh?

Kyaa

By the way, Komachi

You came here because you had some business, did you not?

I didn't come here, I was here.

I can be anywhere. So I can protect Shiki-sama from the evil that is targeting her.

From the evil that resides inside me.

Oh... That sounds quite difficult.

She heard it. She understood it.

But she had to pretend like she didn't. If the girl knew, then the girl would become the evil targeting her.

She will save them. Both herself, and the girl. From that which resides inside of the girl.

And so, Shiki Eiki continued this foolish pretense and never stopped smiling.

And Komachi enjoyed it.

Kill the mind
