Novel Full Chapter 172
Chapter 172
Mmh? A rough sensation on my face, and some liquid? The smell of fish too…
“Nya, nyanooo . ”
It’s Rollo .
“Your Excelleeeeency!” (Helme)
“Master, Master!” (Viine)
“You still not up yet, Shuuya!?” (Rebecca)
“Nn, Shuuya, stop sleeping . Wake up!” (Eva)
…Everyone’s voices .
Should I open my eyes? Yes, I think so .
“Ah, Master! Did you notice us?” (Viine)
“Ooh, His Excellency opened his eyes!” (Helme)
“What a relief . ” (Rebecca)
“Nn ― you alright, Shuuya?” (Eva)
“Nya, nyaaa . ”
Everyone’s face is pale…
Being woken up by beautiful ladies and a cute cat is certainly a very nice experience .
Since I usually don’t sleep, such an opportunity might never come again…
But, on the next run, I will turn only one person a time into a bloodkin…
Let’s burn the girls’ expressions into my memory in commemoration…
Now then, time to get up . While looking at everyone,
“――I’m fine . Looks like I made you worry . ” (Shuuya)
“Jeez, I was out of my mind in worry! Once we woke up, you had collapsed and Viine had a very angry look . As she was frantically shouting “I didn’t expected something like this! I didn’t know!” while crying loudly, we got panicked as well . Even Spirit-sama looked shocked and started to emit water from her boobs…” (Rebecca)
I must have startled Viine .
Helme, for you to release water from your boobs when you lose your calm…
“…Rebecca . It was the first time for Master to collapse unconsciously . I lost my cool there . I will apologize for that . However, it’s truly wonderful that you’re safe, Master…” (Viine)
At that time Viine’s butt flopped on the ground and she burst into tears again .
With her apparently having removed her mask, the silver butterfly shining on her cheek and tear drops mixed with each other, causing the light to reflect in a mysterious way .
“Nn, don’t cry, Viine . Shuuya is in good health . ” (Eva)
Eva pats Viine’s back to comfort her while sitting on the bed with an angel-like smile .
“Y-Yes…Eva . You’re just like an older sister . I’m happy . Thank you . ” (Viine)
“Nn, I understand . Cheer up . ” (Eva)
“Eva…” (Viine)
She read her mind, huh?
Viine looked at Eva while smiling tenderly .
“Your Excellency, I was also scared…even when I entered your body, you didn’t hear me . I was frightened to death, which resulted in me leaking water . ” (Helme)
Helme’s voice is still unusually shrill and nervous .
“Everyone, I’m sorry…it’s because I expended large quantities of mana, spirit, and blood . Turning two people into bloodkin at the same time was too much of a burden, as expected . ” (Shuuya)
“It sure looks like it . ”
“Nn, next time, in turns . ” (Eva)
Eva narrows her eyes .
“Ah! True! So Eva and Rebecca, you became my bloodkin, right!?” (Shuuya)
“Nn, I became <Head Servant Leader> . I also acquired various skills which got reorganized then . However, I need a bit blood every day . ” (Eva)
Eva merrily recounts while emitting violet mana from her whole body .
“As for the blood, it’s the same as with Viine, huh? What about you, Rebecca?” (Shuuya)
“I learned <Inhalation of Odor Technique>, and also acquired the permanent skills <Blood Mana>, <Lineage of the True Ancestor>, and <Head Servant Leader> . And my skills as well as my combat occupation changed as well . ” (Rebecca)
Rebecca looks delighted, but she also seems slightly confused .
“Hoh, then tell me how they changed . ” (Shuuya)
“Oki . <Divine Protection of Fire> and <Eyes of the Blue Flame> fused into <Divine Protection of the Blue Flame> . My combat occupation changed from <Blue Flame Artist> to <Blue Flame Battle Tactician>, an occupation I’ve never heard about before . And y’know what, it became a lot easier to manipulate the blue flame at will, like this…” (Rebecca)
Rebecca holds out her right hand, forming a fist .
A blue flame with a color close to that of her eyes engulfed her small fist .
Is it close to the Magic Combat Style or Guidance Sorcery?
“Nya~ nyao . ”
Rollo is surprised by the sudden appearance of a blue flame on Rebecca’s arm .
“Isn’t that amazing?” (Rebecca)
“Nn, Rebecca, you not hot?” (Eva)
“It’s fine . ” (Rebecca)
Rebecca erases the blue flame around her fist while smiling .
“It might be a result of Master’s Light Demon Lucival lineage inciting the growth of various latent abilities such as your mana, spirit, and physical abilities as a high elf which you had from the beginning . I suppose it’s an occupation allowing you to fight from the distance and at the same time allowing you to go into close combat; a unique, specialized occupation similar to the secret arts of the Magic Combat Style and Guidance Sorcery . ”
Having stopped crying, Viine had returned to her usual self . She explained Rebecca’s new combat occupation in a calm manner .
“Just as with Viine, Eva’s and Rebecca’s mana manipulation skills have gone up remarkably . These chosen bloodkin possess a strength befitting for a corps commander who leads troops . ” (Helme)
Helme adds in a good mood .
“Spirit-sama, thanks~ . I can even create a blue fireball, and my fists have turned into weapons as well!” (Rebecca)
Rebecca shadow boxes with nimble movements .
I sure don’t want to experience a retort with those fists being clad in blue flames…
“What magnificent blue flame fists…but please don’t touch my skin with them, okay? I would get burned…” (Helme)
Helme looks at the blue flames while moving her long eyelashes subtly .
She’s a water spirit, thus she might be scared of the blue flames .
“O-Oki, I will be careful . ” (Rebecca)
After seeing Helme’s nervous expression, Rebecca stops unleashing punches .
“So, what about you, Eva?” (Shuuya)
“Nn, I acquired <Metal Refinement>, and the number of metals attachable to my legs increased . Also, <Thought Guidance Force> became more powerful and its effective range went up . The things I understand by touching have become more, too!” (Eva)
Eva’s expression of accomplishment is cute .
I can understand since her mind-reading ability has been enhanced as well .
“That’s great . Both of you have become stronger in various ways . That means…” (Shuuya)
At that point I take out two “Virgin Blades” from my item box .
I handed them to the girls .
“Bracelet?”
“Do I put this on?”
“Those are Virgin Blades . Tools for developing your <Blood Mana> . It’s a training that’s indispensable at the beginning . Let’s first go to the second floor . ” (Viine)
Before I can say anything, Viine simply explained in my stead .
“I will explain the details at the place with the earthenware bucket on the second floor . ” (Shuuya)
“Nn, understood . ” (Eva)
“Hmm . ” (Rebecca)
“Your Excellency, I will meditate on the first floor . Rollo-sama, let’s go . ” (Helme)
“Nyao~”
For a change, Rollo climbs on Helme’s shoulder .
There she repeatedly licked Helme’s cheek .
While smiling, Helme says,
“Rollo-sama, I will give you some special water later, okay?” (Helme)
They leave us while having such pleasant exchange .
Special water?
I questioned doubtfully, but I didn’t say anything .
I take Eva and Rebecca along, moving to the veranda on the second floor .
We head to the bathroom located in the small tower .
“I will have you learn the first stage of <Blood Mana> as vampires by using the bracelets in this place . ” (Shuuya)
“First stage…this bracelet seems to have a switch . ” (Rebecca)
“Indeed . It’s a device where blades will come out if you press the switch . That will help you to memorize the sensation of shedding blood by wounding your own body . ” (Shuuya)
It will probably be difficult for them to do it if they don’t take off their clothes . I guess I will step outside and have Viine watch them .
“Eeh…? I hate pain…” (Rebecca)
“Nn, got it . Is it better to undress?” (Eva)
“Wai-! Nude…eeeeh? I don’t want that . It’s embarrassing . ” (Rebecca)
Rebecca hates it, but Eva boldly proposes it from her side .
“I know . I will go outside . ” (Shuuya)
“Nn, wait, I’d like you to see all of me, Shuuya . I want to share this blood ritual with my special person…” (Eva)
Eva looks directly into my eyes .
I could sense a deep affection from her violet eyes .
“Roger . I will properly watch you, Eva . ” (Shuuya)
“…Wait, I’m embarrassed, but I want you to watch me as family and fellow Light Demon, Shuuya . ” (Rebecca)
Not wanting to be defeated by Eva, Rebecca strengthens her determination and tells me that with a resolved look .
Both of them are serious .
While accepting their feelings,
“…Sure . I will properly make sure of it with my own eyes . ” (Shuuya)
I nodded deeply and answered, bracing myself .
“Nn . ” (Eva)
Eva transforms her wheelchair into its Segway mode .
And then, while smiling beautifully, she took off her orchid negligee .
…Ooooh…her nude body is a piece of art .
At the peak of each of her two, white, magnificent hills grows a small, enticing, pink bud .
White thighs with a great volume that are plump and soft-looking, and a tight waist .
Oops, I got aroused .
So that’s why Rollo likes them so much .
I want to be allowed to place my head on those thighs .
“When nude…boobs, big…”
Rebecca compares her chest with Eva’s voluptuous twin hills…and becomes depressed .
“Shuuya…I want you to put me in the bathtub . ” (Eva)
Eva’s voice trembles a bit .
But to me it sounded like a small, clear bell .
“Okay…” (Shuuya)
I closely embrace Eva while feeling her big breasts pressing against me, carry her in my arms, and make her sit down inside the bathtub after lowering her slowly .
I want to keep staring at those pretty boobs, but I will endure for now .
I separate from the bathtub while standing up .
“…How enviable . ” (Viine)
Viine whispers under her breath .
Being carried in my arms?
“Well then, next it’s your turn, Rebecca . ” (Shuuya)
“F-For h-her to have h-had such v-v-volume…” (Rebecca)
She says with her blue eyes trembling .
The hidden big boobs of Eva, were apparently quite heavy, err, shocking .
“Rebecca, you want to stop?” (Shuuya)
“…No, I will do it! I’m only doing something like this…because it’s you, Shuuya . ” (Rebecca)
Rebecca adopts a pose of dauntingly raising her slender index finger .
And she donned an expression which revealed her fiery emotions hidden in her heart .
She glares intensely at me while lacking any hatred in her blue eyes .
Then she took off her cute, white silk pajamas .
Acting uneasy, she hides her chest with one hand, and her nether region with the other .
“…” (Shuuya)
“Jeez! Shuuya, you lecher! Don’t stare at me so much!” (Rebecca)
While focusing to keep up a serious face,
“I’m sorry, but I can’t help it . Well then, should I carry you over in my arms as well, Rebecca?” (Shuuya)
I take one step towards the lovable Rebecca .
“N-No――” (Rebecca)
She stops hiding her body with her hands, and raises her hands clad in blue flames .
“If you hate it…” (Shuuya)
“…No, well…” (Rebecca)
Rebecca’s face becomes bright red and she shakes her head .
And then, while lowering her arms and casting her eyes down as if having resigned herself, she quietly mumbles “…Please . ”
“Got it――” (Shuuya)
I hug the nude Rebecca, and then carry her in my arms .
Because of her small build, she’s light .
“Kyaa…Shuu…ya . ” (Rebecca)
Rebecca’s face reddens even further .
Her eyes become moist .
Somehow this is really awkward…
There are only few steps until the bathtub, but…
I carry Rebecca there
“I will lower you now . ” (Shuuya)
“Oki…” (Rebecca)
I get away from the bathtub after supporting Rebecca .
Eva grasps Rebecca’s hand inside the bathtub and nods .
“It’s time . Both of you press the switch on your bracelet . It will hurt at first, but keep at it . ” (Shuuya)
“…Here I go!” (Rebecca)
“Nn . ” (Eva)
Both pressed the switch, and the shedding of blood started .
◇◇◇◇
A few hours passed…since the start of the ceremony .
Neither of them has grasped the sensation yet .
It’s taking them longer than Viine .
The blood ritual that made use of the Virgin Blades lasted until night .
Finally,
“――I did it . <Blood Path – First Gate>, manipulating blood, wow . My combat occupation changed to <Violet Steel Blood Warrior> . ” (Eva)
Eva explained while looking as if in trance .
While emitting violet mana from her whole body, she sucked up the blood that had accumulated at her feet .
As she does, the violet color changes its hue as if being blended with blood .
“Ah, me too . I acquired <Blood Path – First Gate> . My combat occupation also changed into <Blue Flame Blood Warrior>…” (Rebecca)
Next Rebecca acquired the skill, too .
With the blood that accumulated in the bathtub being absorbed by both of them, it vanished in the blink of an eye .
“Congratulations, you two . This completes the first stage . ” (Shuuya)
“Nn, thanks . ” (Eva)
“Thanks . It was embarrassing, but I’m happy that you watched me, Shuuya . ” (Rebecca)
Both girls’ bodies were stained in blood, but now there’s no trace of any blood left on them anymore .
With this both fully became my kin .
What joyous event . Viine, who watched together with me until the end, also smiles as she congratulates them .
Next up is the matter with the mirrors, I guess . But, that’s no big deal by now .
But, before speaking about that…
I take off my clothes .
“…You two, you’ve made your resolve, right?” (Shuuya)
“Nn . ” (Eva)
“…Yes . ” (Rebecca)
Eva smiles like an angel .
Rebecca widens her blue eyes to the limit, staring at my nude body .
The time to steal their sacred virginity has come .
I slowly approach the two girls .
I start by pushily kissing Eva, as if tearing down her angelic smile .
Then I separate my mouth from hers with spit hanging in-between, just to next hug the small body of Rebecca, obviously lifting her up in order to steal her small lips .
I don’t know whether Rollo would have been shocked, but after that it turned into a passionate liaison with both of them until the early morning hours .
◇◇◇◇
Morning .
Eva, Rebecca and Viine sleep in my bedroom while looking miserable .
It’s not like I did it with all three of them at the same time, but I certainly had sufficient sex with each of them individually…
I messed up Eva, I messed up Rebecca as well, and after them, Viine, who had endured while watching ferociously, was attacked by me…
It’s not that I can finally think clearly after stilling my sexual urges, but I head to the veranda on the second floor .
I pass through the arched exit leading out of the room with the wooden floor and the fireplace, arriving on the veranda .
Just like the other day, I sit down on the chair and drink my usual morning coffee, err no, my morning black sweet water . Meanwhile I looked at the courtyard which was illuminated by the morning sun .
Once again I can see Helme watering one of the two big trees growing in the corner of the courtyard .
Once our eyes met, she flew up to the veranda where I’m comfortably resting while emitting a sheet of water spray .
“――Your Excellency, good morning . ” (Helme)
“Mornin’ . Helme, you’re always watering those trees, aren’t you?” (Shuuya)
“Yes . I’m sharing a bit of my mana with them . The tree spirits are delighted, too . ” (Helme)
I can’t see anything like those bonchhichi child spirits, but it seems as if she can .
“I see . Helme, you want to have a sip of this, too?” (Shuuya)
I try offering her the pitcher with black sweet water .
“Yes . ” (Helme)
“Here you go . ” (Shuuya)
She gulps it down her throat while causing her bluish black, leafy skin to make waves .
“Delicious! Despite being sweet, it gives me a refreshing feeling . ” (Helme)
“Right? Feel free to drink up all of it . ” (Shuuya)
“Okay!” (Helme)
She’s a spirit, but seeing as the blue fruits of the Millenium Plant are alright, she likes sweet stuff, I guess .
She happily downed all the black sweet water .
“Hey, guild master! You’re living here, right?” (Benett)
“Shuuyaaaa, you become our guild master, didn’t yooou~? Where are yooou~?”
Oh? I hear familiar female voices from the courtyard .
“Helme, I will go greet them . ” (Shuuya)
“Okay . ” (Helme)
I jump down from the veranda .
Using <Magic Hand guided by Thought> as foothold, I got down to the courtyard in exhilaration .
“Eh? You came flying?” (Benett)
“Shuuya! Long time no see!” (Veronika)
It’s Benett and Veronika, members of 【Remains of the Moon】 .
“Yo, Benett . Veronika, you too . Going by your appearance, you seem to be doing fine . ” (Shuuya)
“Yeah . I heard that you defeated Mad Knight ― thanks . Light-based attacks are my weak point after all . …But, rather than that, you’ve become our guild master while I was asleep! I was startled after hearing about it from Mel!” (Veronika)
Veronika holds the edges of her gothic dress and bows cutely, and then twirls around on the spot .
Benett watched her silently .
“Well, I just went with the flow . From now on I will have you follow my orders as well . ” (Shuuya)
“Aww, how cool…hasn’t your deep, pure male scent somehow become stronger and more intense than before? You totally made my heart throb really hard with nothing but those words just now――” (Veronika)
She approached me with a playful mood, but I evade her splendidly with an unpolished, showy half turn .
“――Jeez, stupid guild master, if a sweet girl tries to hug you, you should open your arms widely and welcome her, don’t you think? Humph . ” (Veronika)
“Veronika, I will shower you with my blood, if you get too cocky . ” (Shuuya)
“Ugh, that look…I sensed it once again…” (Veronika)
This one is a lost case…
Probably because my darkness attribute grew quite a bit, Veronika has become madly in love with me .
“…Verocchi, don’t put the guild master on the spot . But, for this girl to be this crazy about him…” (Benett)
Benett squints due to Veronika’s weird actions while having a strange look .
“But, listen, Shuuya has become our comrade, no? She mentioned it many times before, didn’t she? That Shuuya will become our comrade if I do my best to improve the bone puppets . ” (Veronika)
“…Yeah, I remember that quite well . You were promised by Mel, right?” (Benett)
“Yeah! Mel kept her promise . ” (Veronika)
She made such a promise?
Damned Mel, it’s quite possible that she came asking for my help…in order to pull me in .
That vixen…even though she obediently bowed her head in front of me, she fuckin’ laughed behind my back, eh…? What a cunning, sarcastic woman .
But, no matter how often I think about it, she’s interesting . No wonder that she’s formerly been the guild master of a dark guild .
She’s a woman with an ulterior motive, but she’s also a quick-witted woman who manipulates me .
She’s quite useful…if she wants, it might be just fine to talk with her about becoming one of my chosen bloodkin, as <Head Servant Leader> or <Servant Leader> .
“…Guild master? You’re smirking . Did you catch Veronika’s disease?” (Benett)
“I’m fine . Rather than that, Benett, you having come here means that you already collected the information, right?” (Shuuya)
Hearing my words, Benett moves her square chin up and down .
“Yeah . I gathered the information on Pax Raghredoah right away . ” (Benett)
Benett is really superior as spy .
I suppose I can turn her into my bloodkin as well, if she’s up to it .
“…Let me hear it . ” (Shuuya)
“Sure . I was also startled, but it was the name of the leader of 【Cradle of DeathDead Cradle】 which has that much of a momentum going that they’re becoming a danger for the six top clans . ” (Benett)
“Dead Cradle, huh?” (Shuuya)
Does it also mean that he’s growing bugs in a cradle?
“…So, his nick is Pax the Black Lightning . His main weapons are a magic spear and a magic sword . It looks like no one has seen his face since he’s wearing a black skull . He’s an eerie, tall man . He secludes himself in the labyrinth for long periods, and he’s famous for killing slaves by using them as shields each time . Since his slaves increase and decrease, the number of his party members is unknown . There are also rumors that he keeps up relations to the dark guilds 【Black Glove】 and 【Nose of the Large Bird】 behind the scenes . It seems that he has reached the sixth floor in the labyrinth . ” (Benett)
A black skull, spear, sword, eh? I guess it’s possible that I will have to face a fellow lancer .
Besides, if he has reached the sixth floor on top of having relations with dark guilds, he must be a fairly strong adventurer . I guess he’s good at interpersonal combat, too .
It seems to be no surprise that he has been chosen by an evil god .
“…If he dives into the labyrinth for long periods, you didn’t find his home or such, did you?” (Shuuya)
“Fufun, I will be troubled if you underestimate my abilities . The target’s mansion is in the eastern part of Pelneet, on the lower right of the Second Ring Road, at the edge of the Warehouse District . It’s a considerably big house with a light brown roof . There’s a brothel with a red roof next to it . ” (Benett)
Oh, wow! If I know where he lives, it will be easy .
“Great work, Benett . ” (Shuuya)
“…I just did my work . All for the sake of the bow which Mel promised me . ” (Benett)
“By the way, if Bene-ane averts her face with her nostrils expanding, it’s proof of her being embarrassed and happy, guild master . ” (Veronika)
Veronika told me .
“Verocchi, don’t prattle about unnecessary stuff!” (Benett)
“Fufu~” (Veronika)
“Thanks, Veronika . Given that Benett is often spiky, such information is a big help . ” (Shuuya)
“See, Bene-ane, guild master answered with a smile . ” (Veronika)
“Ah, y-yeah, guild master ― don’t stare so much at my face!” (Benett)
Once I paid particular attention to her hook nose, Benett averted her face, seemingly ashamed .
Just as Veronika said, her nostrils are slightly inflated .
Somehow she looks cute .
To be honest, her face is plain, but that might be adorable in its own way…
“…What a cute nose . ” (Shuuya)
“Wai-! Are you talking about me here!?” (Benett)
“Aaaaah~ Bene-ane is getting praised first…” (Veronika)
Benett widens her eyes and her face becomes crimson red .
On the other hand, Veronika pouts in anger with her cheeks swelling up .
“Indeed . Don’t be so surprised, Benett . ” (Shuuya)
“…For me, for me to get praised…” (Benett)
Benett timidly fidgets with her fingers, averting her eyes to the side while occasionally glancing at me .
“Veronika, there’s no need for you to be so sulky either . Your small face is pretty, too . ” (Shuuya)
“Mmh! More, more, praise me, praise me more~~~, guild masteeeer~” (Veronika)
As if pouncing on me…Veronika clung to my arm .
Since it looked troublesome to dodge her, I let her hug my arm closely .
“Huh? The one over there is?” (Veronika)
Veronika apparently spotted Helme behind me .
“Good morning . I’m Helme, a Water Spirit of Everlasting Darkness . I’m His Excellency’s eternal manservant, His water, His darkness, His butt love, His――” (Helme)
“――Helme, you can stop your introduction around there . ” (Shuuya)
I interrupted her since it looked as if it would become a long introduction .
At the moment she heard Helme’s words, the elf Benett went down on her knees and bowed her head .
The vampire Veronika is surprised, retreating several steps .
“Your Excellency, your greatness…” (Helme)
“It’s enough . ” (Shuuya)
“Yes…” (Helme)
“Guild master…is that person really a spirit?” (Benett)
Lifting her face, Benett asked .
“I guess it can’t be helped――” (Helme)
Helme transforms into her liquid state in an instant .
She moves in a spiral as if flying into the sky .
Then she changed into a slime while releasing sprays of water .
She keeps creeping across the stone-paved courtyard with wet sounds .
And then she returns back into her human shape in a flash .
While embracing me, she turns her face with its beautiful blue and bluish black leaves at Veronika and Benett .
“Yes, I understand! ――Please forgive me, oh Spirit-sama!” (Benett)
“…Spirit-sama . ” (Veronika)
Benett shifts into dogeza .
Veronika genuflects, too .
“It’s all fine as long as you understand . ” (Helme)
The smiling Helme moves quickly while making sure to launch sprays of water, returning into the main building .
“…Guild master, it’s the first time in my life that I saw a spirit…guild master, just who…” (Benett)
Benett’s face is completely frozen .
“I’m surprised as well . She’s no familiar . Neither a magic tool . For you to employ a spirit, and moreover one with a complete awareness of herself…I have lived for a long time, but I have never seen one . I wonder what kind of contract spell you have to put together for something like that to be possible . It should require an absurd amount of mana, force of will…surpassing logic and the threshold with crest magic and ancient magic . It’s a truly unknown world, going beyond the levels of gods . I can faintly sense the same smell from Spirit-sama as I can from you, Shuuya . Did you employ her with a completely different method…?” (Veronika)
Veronika has lived for close to 300 years, hence she apparently knows quite a bit about magic .
“You guys know that I’m not normal, right? I’m a being on the dark side that likes blood . I like light as well, though…” (Shuuya)
“…I don’t understand complicated stuff . But I will pledge my allegiance to just you, guild master…” (Benett)
Benett talks while apparently considering how to express herself in her own way .
“…I will also pledge my allegiance to you, Shuuya . I want you to protect me…even the main Valmask family…if it’s you…” (Veronika)
Even Veronika, who had cheerfully fooled around so much, lifted her face and then bowed her head again .
The Valmask family, eh?
I guess they will sooner or later realize that I’m expanding my influence as Lucival, won’t they?
I think the Vampire God Lugnado has noticed as well .
I talked about it with Mel, but well, I don’t think that my opponents are idiots either . The probability for them to come picking a fight might actually be low .
“…I’m happy about your loyalty . Stay at ease . And, the guards, who you ordered to follow my friends, aren’t needed any longer . Tell Mel that the girls will live together with me in this mansion . Also, can you talk with her about permanently stationing a contact person here, seeing as there will be situations where I will need to get in contact with you guys?” (Shuuya)
“Leave it to me! I will speak to Mel . ” (Benett)
Benett nodded vigorously .
“Since I want to stay at your side, Shuuya, I will…” (Veronika)
“Verocchi, Mel won’t allow that, you know? Besides, there are still things you have to do, right?” (Benett)
“Uuuh, if it’s about the Horned Bone Puppets, I have already made three of them…” (Veronika)
“I don’t know anything about that . You gotta talk with Mel . ” (Benett)
“Humph! I will have a proper chat with Mel and get permission…” (Veronika)
Veronika starts grumbling to herself .
“Well then, I’m going back . ” (Benett)
“Sure . ” (Shuuya)
“Ah, wait, Shuuya――” (Veronika)
Veronika spread her arms in order to make her small body as big as possible, and clung to me once more . Since it couldn’t be helped, I allowed her to hold onto my legs .
“Fu fu, sankyuu――” (Veronika)
She made a vampire-like, high jump, and kissed me on the cheek .
After she landed while rotating, Veronika turns on her heels with her face bright red, and chases after Benett .
Haha, what cute face .
Now then, I think it’s a good time to wake up everyone .
