The thing Souma was thinking about was clearly very different from what was happening now.
It was the residence of Astrea where she sat at the dining table while Astrea took off all her clothes and left only her underwear. He took the apron hanging on the wall and tied it to his body.
"Oi, you're scaring me."
"Sorry, sorry, I just wanted to bring you here. The thing you saw was just acting but I make sure other than that the rest is genuine."
Souma sighed softly, he was grateful that he was not beaten up right now.
"I'll make you some food and tonight you're staying here, because there's one room let's sleep together."
"If you say that, I don't mind."
Souma knows better who the person in front of him is, he is not someone who is carried away by emotions such as lust or so on, he is a woman who is difficult to understand but when you know him you will understand who he is.
"You didn't rebuke me even I took off my clothes."
"This is your home so you're free to do whatever you like, more than that?"
"I'll talk about it after we eat."
Souma agreed to that, he received a lot of processed food and from there he knew that every dish placed on the table was high-end food.
"Please eat it."
"Your attitude really scares me."
The more feminine Astrea, the more Souma will feel something terrible behind him, so let's finish this food quickly and get to the point, he thought to himself.
Astrea continued.
"A few days ago there was a terrible plague in every city, I was asked to investigate it secretly and I thought I wanted to invite you to join me."
"Hurriedly? What does it mean you're going undercover or something."
Astrea nodded.
"It is possible that some nobles were involved in it, the four kingdoms that tried to attack us from the outside did not succeed because we had the support of the moon magician and they tried to destroy us from the inside, I'm sure those nobles have been bribed with power and land ownership when they rule our kingdom."
"If I'm involved to that extent then there's a chance I'll have to fight, can you just ask someone else."
Astrea shook her head.
"There is no one to trust other than Souma, let's just say this can also help everyone and also the Celestrial princess, instead of you liking her."
"I don't remember ever saying that."
"But I felt that, in the fight you saw him a few times to make sure he wasn't, you think if you lose then the princess will return to the palace and the place there is much better for her so she will not be targeted by the wings of freedom or the pillars of the evil god, don't underestimate the guild connection."
"No, I know you got this information from the Undine, a couple of times she came back in a distended stomach so I knew someone was feeding her."
"You think of it as a wild cat."
"What can I do, I will help you as much as I can."
"I'm grateful for that."
In the evening Souma just stared at the ceiling of the room with a troubled face while Astrea slept beside him and made him a bolster pillow. He tried to escape but it was all in vain until in the end he could only sigh slowly while closing his eyes and say without getting a reply.
"Good night Astrea, as usual your strength is really not a normal thing."
Souma was convinced that Astrea had the divine protection of the goddess close to him, which was why Souma could not fight against her.
