Chapter 6:
Love Beyond The Closet Door
Week has passed since I undergone the training. I scream in pain every single day and every day feel like I'm rolling around in hell name Physical education.
Even when I'm too severe injured, she just forcefully shoved red potion into my mouth, all my injuries are healed but there always pain accompanied with it as pair.
I can clearly feel my body become stronger rapidly though, and aside from agony of training itself, weird look from other servants there is no others issue.
I just hope today is rest day since she ordered me to be her guide toward my original world.
Won't normally people who workout required rest day for muscle to grow? Well that step was skipped due red potion extreme increase regenerate speed of my body, it won't heal cut off arm, but if it just hole or beating it can easily you as long you don't die from shock due pain.
Even if my body can hold on, my mind barely holding itself together, I really need some break.
Otherwise, I don't think my mind will remain sane.

*Knock Knock
Sound of barrier and lock disabled from inside then shortly after voice came out.
“You can enter”
I immediately open the door and quickly closed it behind me, with sound of barrier and lock being reapplied, walk briskly toward her then knee in front of her ladyship.
“I have come as per your order, Lady Alicia.”
Alicia, checking her gear and sword after she finish her inspection on her gauntlet, she finally turn her head to speak.
“Is there anything of note on otherside I need to care about?”
I who look at her who prepared herself with light armor on her and sword on her waist. I can't help but feel my sweat drop from my forehead increased slowly.
“My apologies miss for step out of line, but… you clearly dressed too excessively and will likely mistaken as cosplayer or police force will come to try detain you with all those armor and weapon you wearing.”
“Cosplayer? Ah the one you said pretending to be others and wearing cloth similar to one they admired?
And Police force is no different from private military force of lord who being no use and only exercise force only for their own convenience?”
Umm, there several wrong understanding she had but they're not exactly wrong either.
“If you refer to not attract attention then you do not need to worry about.”
‘Distortion’
After said that Lady Alicia cast the spell, right afterward all her gear disappeared from my view and I can only see that she only wear white shirt and black pant.
Amazed by such sight before me, And at same time, know that she most likely only hide their appearance but plan to keep them on her, chill run down back of my spine.
‘Ah…this if there anyone who try to recklessly approach her she definitely will crush them without hesitation at all.’
after just 1 week of training underher, I can tell that while Lady Alicia is type that might look like cool elegant and beautiful when she stay still and speaking, but while most of her action and thought are rational yet very hard core pursue of efficiency even if it mean resort to physical solution without shred of hesitation.
She also very paranoid due assassin attempts and other servants who unlikely to serve her for real, mocking gaze or talk behind her back like every time she went outside of her fortress (her room).
At first I was shocked to see death body around mansion regularly and was assigned to dispose of them as butler-in training, I didn't puke, collapse or anything though that saving grace I guess?
And the culprit who killed countless of those assassin is none other than Lady Alicia in front of me.
‘Um, my condolence to those in future who try to aim for her, she likely will try eliminating them like pest, but i pledge to serve her, so I have no reason to stop her from get rid of them at all’
Lady Alicia who packing her spare sword and various others stuff into her small dimension space handbag finally finished prepared her weapons.
“I'm done with preparation, The dimension passage should be stabilized by now, but as precaution Yuuma you will go through it first then if it safe I will follow after you.”
“Umm, would it be safe milady?”
“If it's don't then you will be torn apart and die.”
‘Yeah, I expected this but she really being blunt about it.’
I get up from position she taught me of how I should knee like knight to prepare for sudden assault (knee on one leg, one hand on chest and other is on hips near place you put weapon on and not in inefficiently seiza that designed to paralysis your leg.
I close the distance to closet far faster than my past self last week ability, it's to point that I think I actually on lv of active athletes or even slightly above them.
Gulp down nervously, I opened the closet door, and can see dimension beyond the crack in space inside lead toward my room, it's feel weird that despite several months passed by here, it look like only few hrs or days passed by on otherside.
Make up my mind, I jump into cracked in space.
