Chapter 98 - Today Another Maid Has Been Added

Creeeeak─!!!

The rocking chair makes a strange sound as it creaks. The woman sitting on such a chair seems unbothered, enjoying her amusement.

Though I said amusement grandly, it's actually nothing special. How much could there be to enjoy in such a damp and dark space.

There's only one thing at most.

Zzzzt─!!

A mouse writhes in the air. It's quite fun to watch it flailing around, moving this way and that centered on its floating tail.

The woman resting her chin on one hand blankly watched the mouse's struggle.

"Why do they want to live so badly."

As if responding to those words the mouse moved frantically. Whether its tail is cut or not, it moves its body desperately to get down from the air.

The woman found this act itself contemptible. Why cling to life so much when you'll die anyway...
