I’m Not Good at Offensive Magic, but I’ll Do My Best With Support Magic! - CH 18

「Hmm~ …… It’s hot」

And for some reason, I can’t move my body.

I slowly opened my heavy eyelids and saw Shea-san’s face very close to mine.

When I felt like I couldn’t move, it seemed that Shea-san was holding me.

「Fue?」

Shea-san was sound asleep, sighing in her sleep. She’s so sound asleep that she doesn’t even notice I’m awake.

Why is this happening to me? I think back to last night.

Mumumu, I’m starting to vaguely remember that.

It’s a fragmented memory, but I’m starting to get a feel for the situation.

「This way, it’s cooler」

I seemed to have a high body temperature and was rummaging around for a cool spot on the futon. It’s not that I’m a bad sleeper, you know?

After a while, it started to get warm again, so I moved to another place.

Repeat, several times……

「Funya! ?」

I fell off the bed.

「Yuan… ?」

The sound of the fall seemed to have woken Shea-san up.

「I’m fine. I just fell out of the bed」

「…… Un」

Shea-san gets up from the bed and walks over to me who is lying on the floor.

I’m embarrassed that I fell out of the bed.

「It’s okay. I’ve experienced it myself. If this is Yuan’s first time using a bed, I don’t blame you」

Then she picked me up and put me back on the bed.

You’re very kind, Shea-san.

But for some reason, Shea-san also climbed into my bed.

「Shea-san?」

「If we do this, you won’t fall anymore」

Shea lies down next to me, hugging my body.

「Shea-san, it’s hot!」

「I’ll be fine」

Shea-san’s body is also nice and warm. Could it be that Beastmen have a higher body temperature?

Ah… but the smell of Shea-san makes me feel safe.

Shea-san fell asleep immediately.

I was hot too, but it didn’t matter, I was so comfortable that I fell asleep again.

「Un, I remember now」

As I looked at her sleeping face, I remembered what had happened last night and tried to get out of bed, but she was too strong for me to escape.

「I don’t have a choice……」

Good night.

After observing her sleeping face for a while, I decided to go back to sleep.

It’s great to sleep twice in the morning.

「Hmm~ … ?」

「Are you awake?」

When I opened my eyes, my eyes met with Shea’s, and she looked a little disappointed. Did she want to sleep a little longer?

「Good morning…」

「Morning」

But still, we are close, as we were sleeping together. It was dark and I was sleepy, so I didn’t mind at the time, but now that I think about it, it’s quite embarrassing.

「Yuan, your sleeping face was cute」

「Mu… You can’t look at my sleeping face」

I saw her’s too, so we’re even. I’ll keep it to myself, though.

「Hmm─── !」

I pulled myself up out of bed and stretched.

I woke up a little sleepy.

In addition, I’ll flick my tail and twitch my ears and do some exercises. I’ll also hide them in my robe, because they make me feel cramped.

Even if it turns out that I’m a pure Beastman, I don’t think I can explain that to people and expect them to understand me, so I can’t afford to not hide it.

At least, I have to be patient until I cross the border.

「Cleaning Magic Clean Wash!」

Since there is no water in the room, I would really like to wash my face, but I will have to settle with magic.

I took off my clothes and put on a robe over my underwear. When I was ready to go outside at any moment, there was a knock at my room.

「Yes」

「Good morning. Breakfast is ready, would you like it?」

Apparently, Taki-san had prepared breakfast for us.

「Yes, I’ll eat」

「Understood. I’ll be right with you. Please wait」

I like the service.

Taki-san brought us breakfast, which consisted of bread, corn soup, and milk.

「And, if you don’t mind, you can have some of this, too」

Apparently, they added the service that I mentioned yesterday.

「This is a cherry, a fruit with a refreshing sweet and sour taste. It can be eaten with the skin on, so please enjoy it as is!」

「Thank you very much」

「No, no, it’s my pleasure. Take your time」

She left me a basket full of them, but I don’t think I could eat them all. But it was nice to know that Taki-san put so much thought and care into it.

「Yuan, eat」

「Yes, I know!」

「I’m hungry」

I think I ate quite a bit yesterday, but Shea-san seems to be much hungrier. To be honest, fruit is enough for me.

「Shea-san, you can eat mine, too」

「Un, but you have to eat well, too. An adventurer should eat when they can」

「Yes, it’s fine」

I think there was quite a bit of bread, but I only took one and let Shea-san eat the rest.

It was amazing to see them disappear one after another. It was a wonderful morning.

At the same time, I was given a lot of fruit.

「In the morning, this is just fine with me」

It’s sweet and sour, but not overpowering, so I can’t stop eating it.

Sometimes it’s a little hard to eat bread or something in the morning, so it seems just right. Maybe it’s because I didn’t eat breakfast to save money.

However, even though I ate enough to satisfy me, I couldn’t finish the cherries. It’s a waste of money, so I’ll put them away. I’m going to have this for breakfast for a while, is that okay?

I will try to get confirmation from Taki-san later.

「I’m full」

「Un. I’m full in my own way」

It seems that Shea-san can still eat. Where is it packed in her thin body? Maybe there is storage in her stomach.

「Are you going shopping after this?」

「I want to go to the guild first. Then we can go shopping… no?」

「… No, you can」

Apparently, Shea-san wants to register the party name first. It doesn’t matter to me which one is first, because neither is something to escape from.

By no means was I defeated by Shea-san’s 「No?」, okay?

「Room key, please」

「Understood. Please take care」

「Yes, and about the fruit, can I have the extra? I’ll pay you separately」

「No, it’s service, so don’t worry about it. It’s just that this is the season, and there are actually quite a few of them」

Apparently, I can have them.

I thanked Taki-san and we headed for the guild.

Author-san

Thank you for reading.

I’m personally not a fan of explanations.

It’s very formal.

We’ll be heading out on an adventure in a little while, so until then, please enjoy Yuan and Shea’s friendship.
