The Reincarnated Extra

Extra-sama’s Deductions (Useless)

* * *

The day after the roofing board incident.

The rain that started the previous night is still pattering heavily on the roof of the mansion.

Since Sara can’t go out and play in this weather, she’s a little grumpy.

Well, after what happened yesterday, they wouldn’t let her go outside even if it was sunny.

So, what am I doing right now?

I’m watching over Sara as she studies.

Normally at this time in the morning, I would be going around the mansion cleaning with the Maid-senpai. But considering what happened yesterday, the Baron has secretly instructed me to stay near Sara as her guard.

In other words, regarding the culprit who dropped the roofing board yesterday, the Baron is also considering the possibility that it was someone within the household.

Otherwise, there would be no need to assign a guard within the mansion, which is supposed to prevent outsiders from intruding thanks to the barrier.

The forced smile he showed last night may have been concealing his anguish at having to suspect someone from within.

“…Now then, Sara, let’s review what we learned yesterday. Which territory boasts our country’s largest output of magic ore from the famous Zakhzakh Mine?”

“Um, er…the Marmooke Margrave’s territory…?”

“…No, it’s the Deswaar Duchy. You see, the Deswaar Duchy’s eldest daughter, Lady Ijiwaar, is about the same age as you…she may become your classmate. If you were to meet her and say ‘I don’t know anything about the Duchy!’, that would be rude, wouldn’t it? You need to memorize these things.”

Sara is currently struggling with her geography lessons under the tutelage of the lady of the house.

…It seems she has only been told that yesterday’s roofing board incident was just an accident.

The Baron must have made that decision to avoid worrying her.

However, with that energetic baroness…

Today the rain provides an excuse, but it won’t be possible to keep restraining her from going outside forever.

Probably in a few days, she’ll reach her limit of patience and run wild.

Specifically, she’ll sneak out to play without the adults noticing.

She’s an idiot, after all.

…Extra-sama, why do you sound so excited?
