Her eyes turned to X’s, her lips puckered up, and she fell backwards in her chair.

She abandoned her meal and ran from the dining hall screaming something.

An umeboshi full of the history and techniques of the Amakusa Church was nothing like commercial ones.

Once breakfast was over, it was back to battling the washing machine.

“Owner’s manual – check. A screwdriver and other tools – check. The warranty card just in case… Eh? The support center is in Japan? That means it’ll be at the international rate!”

Kanzaki was right at the line between being determined to finish and deciding to give up as she trudged along a hallway in the women’s dorm.

That was when one of the doors along the hallway suddenly opened.

Sherry Cromwell came out looking sleep deprived and scratching her disheveled hair. Her blonde hair looked like a lion’s mane and her light brown skin made her look wild. The sun had already risen high into the sky, but she was still wearing a black negligee.

She was holding a chisel and hammer for sculpting in her hands.

“…Oh, Kanzaki. Is there any breakfast left?”

“I see you got so absorbed in sculpting that you forgot what time it was again. There’s no breakfast left, but Orsola’s in charge of the food, so if you clasp your hands and beg I’m sure she’ll make you something.”

As she spoke, Kanzaki looked over Sherry’s shoulders and into her room.

Sherry had rented out two rooms in the dorm. One to sleep in and one to work in. There were plenty of people that rented out multiple rooms to help manage their spiritual items, but renting a room for something that was no more than a hobby was quite rare.

Sherry’s room was labeled as the “Sculpture Room”, but there were no sculptures in it. There were only piles of the shattered pieces of former sculptures in the four corners of the room.

Except for a statue of a small boy in the center of the room.

It was a life-size marble statue with “Ellis” carved into its pedestal.

“That one was a failure, too.” Sherry muttered when she saw where Kanzaki was looking. “Even though it’s a failure I can’t bear looking at, I just can’t bring myself to destroy it.”

Sherry was almost speaking to herself and Kanzaki only knew that Ellis was the name of the golem Sherry used. Because of this, Kanzaki asked a simple question.

“So that isn’t the name of the spell you use?”

“…When I was naming it, that was all that came to mind.” Sherry responded sulkily. “I was creating a puppet to protect me and when I got to the stage where I had to give it a name, his was the one that came to mind first. I’m aware it makes it look like I’m clinging on to regret.”

Sherry chucked the sculpting tools she was holding into the room, locked the door, and headed for the dining hall without saying another word. Kanzaki didn’t know the details, but Sherry’s back looked somehow smaller than usual.
