"Mr. Berne, what happened just now?　I don't know. There was a noise. It was ......

It's nothing. Thank you for your concern.

Oh, no!　The maid - no!　It's only natural for a human being!

　After Aria and Licht had left.
　After Aria and Licht had left, Bern invited Anna to his room to calm his agitated mind.

　He didn't know why, but he felt at ease when Anna was near him.
　Anna is a normal human being, so she probably doesn't have any special abilities.

　But.
　But even though I thought so in my head, I found myself calming down.

Anna, come a little closer.

"Yes.

　In fact, I want to tell you what just happened right now.
　I really want to tell you what just happened right now. It's such a great growth to be able to connect with the Demon Lord.

　The only thing that frustrated me was the feeling that I had to keep it to myself.

I'm not sure what to make of this, but I'm sure you'll be happy to hear it.

"...... Yeah?　Do you understand?

Yes. Yes, it makes me very happy.

　Bern fluidly sat Anna down next to him.
　The king-sized bed made a small sound with the weight of two people.

"Anna. What do you think of this country?

"Latota?　Well, ...... I think it's a great country!　There are a lot of people here, the adventurers are strong, and most importantly, Master Berne is the ruler!

"Thank you, ......, that's good.

"Heh heh.

　Anna, who is very good at taking advantage of Bern's moods, easily slipped into Bern's bosom.
　As she stroked Anna's head in this way, her mind was enveloped in a strange awareness.

　Since she had become the queen, there was no one she could talk to like a friend like Anna.

　Although she interacts with people, her days are filled with work, which is not enjoyable at all.
　Anna appeared at a time when I was feeling a different kind of loneliness.

　Although she did not excel in her abilities as a maid, she was promoted to the Queen's favorite by her abilities in areas that cannot be described in words.
　This is also her talent, I suppose.

　It can be said that she is the only one whom Bern, the vixen, has forgiven.

"Oh, ......, Anna's hair is all messed up. Can I borrow your comb?

What?　I don't think you can do that to me, Bern-sama.

Don't be shy. It's my fault.

　Anna thought about it for a moment and then, as if she had given up, handed over the comb she was carrying.
　She decided that it would be impolite to refuse at this point.

　Bern carefully arranged Anna's shoulder-length hair.
　Each time she inserted the comb, an indescribable feeling of comfort ran through Anna's head.
　If she had a tail, she would have kept wagging it.

"Hey, Anna. What do you think of ...... me, not Latta country?

"......?　Mr. Berne is a man who cares about us. I have the utmost respect for him in this world!

　Anna told Bern what she was thinking honestly.
　Everything she says is her heart, and there is not a single lie in it.
　This aura, which is completely different from that of other humans, attracts Anna to the point where she can be called a fanatic.

"If I become a demon, will Anna still follow me?

I would definitely follow you!

Whoa!

Yikes.

　There...
　Two girls who forgot their titles of queen and maid.
