On the night of the day I had challenged the Intermediate dungeon for the first time in reality.

A lone well endowed girl came to visit my room. She examines his room while fidgeting for a while, evident that the girl's mood was anything but calm.

No one was there in the room beside the one girl and boy. I wondered what kind of meaning I should assume from her who had come to visit a boy's room alone so late...

As if that wasn't enough, the girl was dressed in an attire far different from what I had usually seen her in. I was stunned, for she was donning pink pajamas on her well endowed body. By no means an attire to be worn when visiting a boy's room at night.

No, maybe formal attire should be the right choice for this occasion? So I thought who couldn't arrive at a conclusion for the question. It was just so profound for me. 一Gulp.

I was sorting out the daily information gathering while relaxing when someone knocked on the door and when I opened it, the visitor was the girl in her current attire.

I was surprised since we hadn't any prior appointment to meet out later or anything.

But of course, whatever the reason was, I couldn't have just asked her there when she was in that attire and so I invited her inside and that's how the current situation comes by.

What kind of business could it possibly be? Oh wait, the girl has already told me the reason first thing in the beginning. But there's also a possibility that it might just be the sound reason¹ to visit his room. 一Gulp.

Night is the time young people's hormones are at their peak, and it is a lone girl visiting a boy's room at night time, what's more in pajamas. Even if there is another reason, just that point alone was enough to expand the fantasies of mine.

一However, the reality is cruel.

"Please teach me how to patch up with Lana-sama."

Apparently that's really the sole purpose of the girl's visit, and I was almost about to say "Go back" but held myself back.

"Ester, Is it fun to play with a boy's feelings?"

"Hmm??"

"No, nothing."

Aren't the Master and Squire too lacking in common sense?

Nothing was as I had imagined. She had come simply for consultation.

※ The targeted audience of the game <Dungeon Activity> is age group B (12 years or above).

Fuu. Calm down, calm down.

Ester tilts her head in puzzlement, still completely unaware of current situation. As expected of Lana's attendant. So innocent.

Ester's status is Lana's attendant and even in normal times, she walks one step behind our pace. So she doesn't stand out, but she's also a beautiful girl. Not only beautiful, she also boasts a well-developed figure that clearly exceeds all the other girls in guild <Eden>. She also reigns supreme in terms of offensive power.

Her human armour², that was normally hidden behind her dress armour, was now dynamically pushing out pajamas. A sight that really makes it hard to see where to look.

It's impossible to not have any expectations when such a girl in pajamas has come to visit my room late at night. Though it seems I was mistaken after all.

Well, not like I hate when someone relies on me so I decided to listen to her without turning her away.

"So, you and Lana are still fighting?"

"No-No-No! It's not as absurd as fighting! It's just there's a bit of dissatisfaction piled up, all Lana-sama keep repeating is "hmm~ hmm~" whenever I tried to talk with Lana-sama."

It seems like Lana was so angry that she has turned into a cow, and when I used the word fight, Ester denied that with all her might.

Nevertheless, Lana is still depressed and completely mad at Ester this time.

"But it isn't bad to be scolded as ‘hmm’ and is quite refreshing."

"S, so is this settled? Then the consultation is over."

"Ah, no. I apologise. I'm very much at loss. I have come to ask if you can teach me any method with which I can make Lana-sama talk to me like usual!"

Some kind of sleepy remarks popped out in the between but it seems Ester is truly in a pinch.

Recently, All I have made Ester do is to work like a coachman for the last few days and I'm heavily indebted to her for her work.

I want to help her if she's in trouble.

It was just that she doesn't look very dissatisfied and even... slightly happy? Is she truly in trouble?

Oh well.

"As far as I can tell after hearing your story, Lana is just depressed. So I think you will be able to solve your problem if you can somehow raise her tension."

"Oh, I was right to visit you, Zephyr-dono. That's really amazing insight."

I don't dislike praise. Rather, she can praise me more.

"The problem is what to do to lift her depressed mood."

"In that case, to fish out something that Lana-sama adores."

"Heh, so Ester is good at baiting."

"No, that was just a figure of speech. I hope you can forget it."

For now, we decided to raise the fallen favorability point. And so, the option we that we comes upon is present.

"Speaking of which, what does Lana like?"

"Well, actually, Lana-sama likes cute things."

I know.

It's already a well-known fact, even if it seems like it sounds "surprising".

"And love stories in general. Lana-sama absolutely need something to read everyday."

"Heh, everyday? I didn't know that."

I had once overheard that she likes reading love stories, but I'm first time hearing that she reads them everyday.

Now that I think about it, I don't know what Lana and other girls usually do in their free time. Let's try asking this next time.

"Then, how about presenting her a romance novel? You should know what type of trend she likes, right?"

"That's, of course, as it is the etiquette of guard. However Lana-sama has quite a good amount of stockpiles already. I am worried that it would just be another copy in her collection"

"Ah~, I see. Let's look for something else then."

I don't know what is etiquette of a guard but Ester apparently knows the type she likes. Except the stockpile³ books she has.

I don't think she will even glance at the present because she already has to patch their relationship, it's better to discard it and think about something else.

By the way, the ‘stockpiling’ word here is referring to the books Lana has collected but have yet to read.

"Then, let's give her something cute. If I'm right, Sierra should have brought a lot of plushies for Lulu, how about you ask her?"

"Ah, that's right. It's a nice idea. I will go right away"

"Ok, but be careful. I mean, don't let other boys see your current appearance~."

First and second floor in the aristocratic dormitory is reserved for boys and third and fourth for girls. We're in the same dormitory so we can visit each other but it's not favorable for boys to sneak into the floor of the girls room at this time.

That's why, I can only help her up to this point. The rest, I warned her not to carelessly lest other boys see her in pajamas.

Albeit, it doesn't seem like she understands the meaning very well.

"?? Okay?. I'm glad that I decided to visit Zephyr-dono to consult."

"D, Don't mind it. See you later."

"Yes. See you again, in the classroom."

Ester left after saying that.

Haa~, I wonder what was even the current consultation about? I raised my tension for nothing.

The main cause was Ester's attire. Ah, but I'm glad she can resolve the problem. 一Sigh

This is the later story.

As we had discussed, Ester visited Sierra's room to ask for the plushies and presented them to Lana. Thus reconciling their friendship safely.

Good for you, Ester.

T/N : 1 - Mc here means this might just be reason on surface but real meaning is something different wink if someone didn't get the point.

2 - Human armor, just another way to describe her body. Probably to match the word "dress armor".
