บท 214: Chapter 214: Four? Four? FOUR!?

"Master...?" Maria looked at Victor's face in concern while she didn't even seem affected by the man's smile.

"Hmm?" Victor lifted his gaze and looked at Maria:

"... What are you doing?" he asked in a neutral tone.

"Master looked like he was in pain… So I hugged him to ease his pain!" She spoke with a determined face. It was a face that didn't show that she had ulterior motives.

"..." Victor narrowed his eyes slightly.

"..." Maria stared at Victor with a twinkle in her eye, and it was as if she was looking at an 'idol', precisely speaking, a 'god.'

An uncomfortable silence fell over the place.

"...I see." Then, in an attempt to break out of this uncomfortable silence, he lifts his face and leans back on his ice throne.

"Master, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, My Maid."

Maria's ears twitched a little when she heard 'My Maid':

"...Oh, that's good!" She looked very happy for some reason.
