The next day, dawn had just broken.
Durandal slowly opened her beautiful blue eyes and was the first to discover that "Rita," who had also been sleeping beside her, was gone. Then, the very next moment... she felt an extreme discomfort from Rita.
When Rita felt uncomfortable, she shared that feeling with Durandal as well.
"Rita, what's wrong?"
Durandal found Rita beneath the bed, seemingly unable to understand why Rita had slept there.
"What do you think..."
Rita climbed to her feet and stared speechlessly at the other herself with her wine-red eyes. Durandal had kicked her out of bed several times in the middle of the night. If not for how much she cared about Lady Durandal... she would have lost her temper long ago.
Did she think a maid would never get angry?
That was right! The esteemed Lady Durandal, Schicksal's strongest Valkyrie, not only buried her head in her pillow when asleep, but also liked kicking off the blankets—and kicking anyone beside her out of bed along with them.
Rita had slept beside Durandal and been kicked out of bed four times in a single night!
And that wasn't even the worst part. The worst part was... Lady Durandal sometimes drooled in her sleep.
"S-Sorry! It's a habit my body can't control."
The two were the same person, so of course Durandal knew everything Rita knew. It was just that Durandal had slept far too deeply last night. Even when Rita was kicked out of bed, she had not woken up.
Because it did not hurt at all...
"If apologies were any use, what would we need the police for?!"
Rita suddenly seemed to think of something and began "acting" with a serious expression.
"What do you want?"
Since they were both herself, Durandal naturally played along.
