"..."
Haru gradually opened his eyes and felt very uncomfortable by the dream that he had seen in his sleep, however, the next scene made him startled.
"Oh my... you have woken up, Master?"
Haru couldn't see the face of the person who asked him that question, not because this voice was far away nor he heard this voice from his mind, he knew very well whose voice it was, however, the two melons in front of him made him unable to see the face of Minamoto.
Haru twitched his lips, and there were a lot of things that he wanted to ask, but well, the first thing that he needed to do was to hide his anaconda that wanted to break away from its cage!
Haru moved swiftly and escaped from Minamoto with a reluctant expression, but he knew that it was necessary.
When Minamoto saw Haru's reaction and expression, she was both amazed and also reluctant, but then as a mother, there was something that she needed to say.
"Master, you don't need to worry. That's a normal reaction for a man and... Mom is happy that Master has grown so big..." Minamoto said with a blush and looked away while she thought about Haru's anaconda.
'But I am not happy?!'
Haru had a headache when he thought about his servant. He wasn't sure this feeling was, but somehow he felt that he had been defeated for some reason. He felt tired somehow and sat on the edge of the bed after his anaconda had calmed down. He let out a long sigh and wasn't sure what to say for a moment.
Minamoto, who saw her son down, felt a bit distressed and caressed Haru's head.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You're my son after all and I can assure you that yours is the biggest that I have ever seen." Minamoto tried to cheer Haru up while caressing his head.
"....."
Haru was speechless and wasn't sure whether he should be happy or worried by his servant, but then quickly thought about the dream that he had seen before. He looked at Minamoto and could tell that was Minamoto's past. Somehow, he understood why this woman became crazy, but well, if Minamoto was a man, then it might not be a problem, but the problem was because she was a woman.
It didn't mean that being a woman was bad, but when a woman was too strong, it would be hard for her to have someone who would be able to find a man that was able to love her dearly since most of them would be scared of her.
However, there was one problem that made him startle, and that was when Minamoto had given him a lap pillow without him noticing it.
Haru felt that kind of dream was very dangerous since he didn't realize what had happened during his sleep and if he was attacked so suddenly...
Haru quickly shook his head and he could tell that Minamoto wasn't that kind of servant, however, it was a bit dangerous to sleep like that in the enemy camp after all. Even if he had infiltrated in this place and made Darnic believe in him, but he was sure that Darnic still doubted him.
Haru didn't feel comfortable somehow and laid on Minamoto's lap again.
"Did you not feel well, Master?" Minamoto asked. At first, she was happy when she saw her master laying on her lap, but became quite uneasy when she saw him frown.
"It's nothing."
"Was it a nightmare?"
"You know?" Haru asked.
Minamoto nodded while caressing Haru's head. "Your face seems to be in pain during your sleep. If I can enter your dream then I might slay the insect that tried to bother you during your dream!"
"...."
Haru suddenly realized why Minamoto was a Berserker-class servant at that moment. He then woke up and ignored Minamoto's reluctant expression.
"I will take a bath first then we can go out after that."
"Yes, Master."
Haru was about to enter the bathroom inside his room but stopped when he saw Minomoto was following him. He looked at Minamoto with a confused expression and asked, "What are you doing?"
"It's mom's duty to help her son!" Minamoto said with a serious expression.
"....I don't think that is necessary for you to help you to take a bath."
"No! Master, you should know that this is the enemy's camp! What if you're being attacked during your bath!" Minamoto didn't give up and quickly told him his reasoning.
Sometimes, Haru really wondered whether Minamoto was a Berserker-class servant or not since her mind was so bright at such a stupid time.
"No!"
"Please, Master! Mom is just worried about you!"
"If you're a mother, you should let your children be independent!"
"NOOOOO!!!! DON'T LEAVE ME, MASTER!!!"
Minamoto thought the word "independent" from Haru's sentence meant that he was going to leave her which made her scared and quickly hugged him in hurry.
Once again, Haru could feel a sweet and gentle smell from Minamoto which made him helpless, but then he slipped away from Minamoto.
Minamoto was surprised by Haru's speed and praised him. "As expected of my son! Your speed is better than the Four Heavenly Kings!" However, she didn't give up and wanted to enter the bathroom.
"Stop, Berserker! If you dare to take a bath with me then I will use my Command Spells on you!" Haru didn't make a joke at this moment and showed his Command Spells on Minamoto. He had a hard time controlling himself around Minamoto and if this woman entered the bath, then he might lose control!
"No way! Master, you can't use such precious Command Spells for something like this!" Minamoto quickly stopped Haru.
"Then back down! Wait for me to take a bath quietly in the room," Haru said.
"...No way..." Minamoto plopped on the ground and started to sob, thinking that her son hated her.
"....."
Haru let out a long sigh and patted Minamoto's head.
"Huh?" Minamoto looked up and felt a bit surprised when her son patted her head, but she didn't hate this feeling and even smiled stupidly.
"Listen, Berserker, I don't want you to pamper me too much. I want you to fight beside you, not be protected by you." Haru held Minamoto's hands and said, "So the first thing that I need to do is to take a bath without your help and as my servant, you need to believe in me." He felt stupid when he thought that he needed to explain his excuse to take a bath alone, however, it seemed the effect was better than he had thought.
"...Then... Then... Mom is going to believe in you, but!!"
"But?"
"Promise me that you need to be careful and..."
"And?"
"Let's take a bath together next time!" Minamoto looked at Haru with a burning gaze.
"...."
Haru didn't say anything and entered the bath, locked the door, and quickly took a bath since he had a feeling that his servant might knock the door down to join him to take a bath.
"Master? Master? Please take a bath with me!"
Haru had only woken up in the morning, but somehow he felt more tired than he had thought.
---
After taking a bath, Haru changed his clothes to his usual adventure clothes. Wearing a flannel shirt, jeans, and boots.
Minamoto didn't appear beside him and entered her astral form.
Servants can appear directly or in astral form, when they appear directly, it is during the fight and they take a lot of Magic Power from the master, however, in astral form, they won't take much of Magic Power.
In other words, the astral form on servant is similar to the power saving mode on the smartphone.
On the astral form, Minamoto kept looking at her son and felt a bit quite worried. Her son was so handsome and she was afraid that some insects might try to get close to him.
'If that happens...'
Minamoto held her katana and she was ready anytime.
Haru didn't know what Minamoto was thinking and he wanted to search for the kitchen since he wanted to eat breakfast, but then...
"Good morning."
Haru stopped his step and saw a cute girl.
