Subaru: The reason why they're on our side is that well, I Natsuki Subaru am the new Sin Archbishop of Sloth...
As Subaru said this the hallway went silent for a moment. There were a couple of Cultists that waited for Subaru to leave the Library but seeing him talking to Beatrice they all stayed silent and let the two have their chat.
Beatrice stared at Subaru with a look of confusion,
Beatrice: What did you say, I suppose? Did I mishear something?
Subaru: No, I hate to say it, but I am the new Sin Archbishop of Sloth.
Beatrice's confusion turned into a mix of sadness and hatred, could her contractor really be a part of the witch cult, the same cult that caused puck to die!? Tears fell from her eyes then she shouted,
Beatrice: What do you mean, Betty thought you wanted to get revenge on the cult! Why would you join it? I wonder if you have gone insane!?
Subaru walked toward her and knelt down and while wiping the tears off her cheeks he spoke.
Subaru: Of course I want revenge, I want those scumbags dead more than anyone else, however
Subaru took a deep breath before Continuing
Subaru: If I tried to fight the entire witch cult myself I would have most likely died, my original plan was to use the witch cult grunts to help me kill the Sin Archbishops, though after seeing how loyal they are to me just because I am an Archbishop it made me doubt they would kill the other Sin Archbishops, they probably have the same amount of loyalty for the other Bishops-
Subaru said this while looking up and Scratching his head, Beatrice was still staring at him, after a moment of silence Beatrice spoke.
Beatrice: If that was your plan then what role does Betty play, I suppose?
Subaru: Well Beako, Originally I wasn't expecting you to be alive. I thought the witch cult killed you like everyone else so you really didn't have a role to play.
Beatrice looked at him, Betty never had a role to play, she felt angry- Her face clearly showed she was mad.
Beatrice: If I never had a role then doesn't that mean you lied when you said you needed me had you made that up to make me form a contract with you!?
Subaru: Nope, everything I said was complete truth.
Beatrice's glare reached Subaru, but instead of worry or fright, he only had a sincere smile on his face.
Subaru: The second I saw you my plan completely changed, I had no doubt that you could help me with my new plan. The new plan is simple: get Beako's help and blast all of those bishops right to hell!
Subaru said the plan energetically as if it couldn't fail, as Beatrice listened to him mean glares slowly turned into a smile and a smug one at that.
Beatrice: Then Betty shall help you in this plan and Betty will play her part perfectly, in fact!
Subaru: Ha, glad to hear it!
Subaru got up and grabbed Beatrice's hand.
The cultists that waited for Subaru and Beatrice to finish talking to each other looked at one another before one of them bowed and then started speaking, the cultists that decided to talk were wearing a Maid.
Random Cultist: If you have finished your chat then we would like to tell you that we've made some more food for you to consume since you never told us if we should stop.
The cultist spoke clearly, not making any small talk as if they were delivering a war report.
Subaru: Well I am kinda hungry, hmm, and uh make a meal every day at this time.
Random Cultist: Understood, the food has been placed in the diner hall.
Subaru and Beatrice walked towards the diner hall together all the while making small talk, after a little while Beatrice said
Beatrice: Subaru, may I ask you a question, I suppose?
Subaru: Of course!
Beatrice paused before saying,
Beatrice: Why did you make the witch cultist wear maid and butler outfits? Do you have some kind of fetish, I suppose, if you do I will accept it but I will not support it, In fact!
Subaru's face went bright red,
Subaru: No, of course not! I made them dress like that so they wouldn't look as menacing, if someone saw them dress like how they were before it would immediately initiate a flight or flight response.
Subaru explained trying to fix the misunderstanding, both of them looked at each other before laughing just as they finished laughing they arrived at the dining hall.
Subaru sat down where Roswaal would have sat if he was here.
Subaru: Hey get a chair and place it next to me so Beako can si- Eh?
Beatrice's face was red,
Beatrice: Betty would like to sit on your lap, I suppose!
Subaru: So cute.
Beatrice: Nghh~!
Beatrice sat on Subaru's lap, Subaru wrapped his hands around Beatrice's waist to prevent her from falling, After a few minutes, a Cultist in a servant outfit came and placed plates of meat on the table the cultist bowed before quickly leaving the room.
Subaru and Beatrice started eating the food given, and the two of them fed each other like a father feeding his child the sight was enough to make one smile.
Beatrice: The witch cultists are very weird, I suppose
Beatrice said this as they finished their meal,
Subaru: Isn't that to be expected?
Beatrice: Well of course but, you said you hated them and you would end their lives yet they didn't even bat an eye how strange I think you should find some more trustworthy allies later, in fact.
Subaru shrugged before saying,
Subaru: Eh I guess you're right about them being weird, sadly, for the time being, we're gonna have to rely on them, without them we wouldn't have enough Manpower to maintain the mansion, however finding allies isn't a bad idea!
Subaru yawned
Subaru: Well I wanna sleep, but I'm afraid we might get attacked when we're asleep
Beatrice: Then why don't you tell those cultists to guard the mansion, I suppose?
Subaru: Great idea!
Subaru clapped his hands and after a few seconds a witch cultist appeared, normally this would shock Subaru but he had already seen them seemingly teleport multiple times.
Subaru: Guard the mansion while I sleep, oh and make a couple of test dummies, I wanna see what Beako can do tomorrow.
The witch cultist bowed before leaving.
Beatrice: If you're going to bed then I guess I'll follow, and tomorrow I'll show you just how strong I am, I suppose!
Subaru and Beatrice both walked to Subaru's bedroom, he thought she was just making sure he actually went into his room but that thought quickly vanished when Beatrice followed him into his room.
Subaru: Uh, Beatrice? This is my room-
Beatrice: Betty knows that, in fact.
Subaru: Wait-
Beatrice: Betty thinks we should sleep in the same room, I suppose.
Subaru: Well I don't mind but there's only one bed?
Beatrice: Then we'll share it, I suppose.
Subaru: Heh, this reminds me of the classic scene where the child has a nightmare and they sleep in their parent's room.
Beatrice: Don't compare me to a child, I suppose!
Subaru: Alright whatever.
And so Beatrice lay next to Subaru and they both fell asleep fairly quickly.
