10 Episode 10 Woke up




 We know we can create them.
 The problem is with the word sleep deprivation.

 Come to think of it, I've heard of it.
 I've heard that some magic tools have special abilities--skills attached to them.
 It is said that adventurers can enhance their physical abilities by wearing such magical tools and accessories.

 Perhaps this sleep deprivation is one of those things.
 There are also cursed accessories, and unknowingly wearing them is said to be detrimental to you.

 But there was supposed to be no way to know the effects of these things.
 I can apparently see it.

 If this is why Fira couldn't sleep, it makes sense.
 But in that case, sleeping in another bed should have no effect.

 Maybe there is some other reason.
 Anyway, for now, I'm going to start rebuilding this bed.

 Once we destroy it, we'll retrieve the bed.
 Then I'll rebuild it in my brain.

 Once the S-rated bed was finished, I re-installed it in its original position.
 In addition, I rebuilt the bedding and pillows until they were S-ranked.

 The reason is that the bedding and pillows had a sleep-disturbing effect on them.
 The bedding and pillows had no sleep-disturbing effects.

 It seems that rebuilding them will eliminate the bad skills.
 That should be no problem.

 The work is done, so I head out of the room.
 There was Feela, who was shaking her head in the hallway.
 Next to her, the butler was looking at her with concern.

...Are you done?
Yeah, well. For now, I've made some minor adjustments. Try to sleep once tonight.
Really? You can sleep?
I don't know... but I think he's changing in a lot of ways.
All right!

 Fira heads to her room.
 For now, I follow her inside with her.
 That's when she crawls under the covers.

'What is this........! It's so soft! And the bed is also........so soft that it wraps around your body.......

 Fira's eyelids close.

'Oh, thank you. Blacksmith you're amazing....

 That's good. I'll be able to sleep no problem.

 I didn't want to disturb him, so I left the room with the butler.
 When I went out into the corridor, the butler looked at me with a surprised look.

''........I didn't think that things would change like this in a moment.
Can I ask you a few questions?
Excuse me?
Did Miss Fira sleep in any other beds?
Yes, she did. I tried a couple of new beds, and a couple of beds in other rooms, but they didn't work after a day or two. But after a day or two it was no good, and Miss Fira was under a lot of stress from changing beds every day, so...
So... how long hasn't Miss Feela been out of bed?
A month or so.
''.......I see. If the other bed that Miss Fira slept in is still available, can I have a look at it?
Sure. But what does that tell you?
Well, I'll get some information for you.

 The butler tilted his head.
 It seems that that bed is not the only cause of the problem.
 Then we have to think about other possibilities as well.

 For example, is someone putting that curse on Feela in order to keep her from sleeping?
 I walked down the corridor with the butler and went around to each room.

 The beds that the butler introduced me to were all equipped with sleep disturbance.
 However, the ranks were sparse.

 The bed I was looking at right now had a Sleep Disturbance F rank.
 It's the bed that Fira used a week ago.
 ...I'm beginning to see some of the rules.

 Anything that had been used for a long time after Feela slept had lost its rank.
 On the contrary, everything that was close to Feela's sleep had a high rank.

 In other words, the cause could be Feela?

''Has anything changed in the past month for Miss Feara?
"....changed in the last month? Well... although I didn't notice anything strange about it, as far as I was concerned.
Yeah?

 Then I can't think of anything else to do.
 Together with the butler, he returned to Feela's room.
 Silently, the butler slowly opened the door and found Feela sleeping soundly.

'....Oh, she's asleep!
''But probably only for today.
What, do you know what happened?
Every bed that Miss Feela slept in, I got a bad feeling about it.
Do you mean to tell me that I am cursed?
Yeah, I guess so.
Or rather, can you understand that, Master Relius?
I've only been around for a short while.

 As you can see, we shouldn't say that we can see clearly.
 The butler looked at me in surprise.

''....I see. Surely that would make sense as to why you couldn't sleep anymore.''
'Yes. So if anything has changed in the past month, it could be because of that.
''Ummm ... what do you think? Maybe we'll have to ask Miss Fira directly.
Okay. Okay, I see. Well, I guess we'll see you tomorrow.
'Yes, sir. Master Lelius, I've prepared dinner and will take you to the dining room.
Oh, yes.

 A nobleman's meal.
 It's probably very different from what I usually eat.
 Especially me, I have a poor taste, so I'm not sure if it's good for my mouth.

 After dinner, I was led to the guest room.
 ........guest room, you know.
 It's one size larger than the room I usually use.

 The furniture that has been arranged is all luxurious.
 As expected of an aristocrat.
 I'm going to look at the furniture in the room.

 I can only build furniture that has been destroyed once.
 The more pieces of furniture I can make, the better.

 I steadily repeated the process of destroying and fabricating one piece of furniture at a time.
 When I was done, I went to sleep.

Hey, honey. Wake up.

 My body shook.
 Slowly, I opened my eyes and there was Feela.
 Dressed in simple clothes, the lines of her body were clearly visible even in the darkness.

 Her anxious expression was adorable.
 

''I can't sleep again.

 I see.
 I sat up, brushing off the delusions that had come to mind.
