Magic Gems Gourmet - chapter 539 The gossip "How to Grow Thoughts and Sweet Ways"

That night, Chris dreamed of what had happened so far, like a horse running lamp.

—-This is more than a decade ago, the night Olivia decided to dissolve at the Grand Duke of Augusto.

Having been contacted by Olivia, Chris was in the dark of the night, taking his men out of King’s Landing.

When they boarded the boat near King’s Landing, they left the coast and boarded Princess Olivia, who had just arrived from the port town of Magna.

Dear Christina,

It was the knight of a woman who came across the pier and talked on the deck.

Kintetsu Knights have many female knights, but the reason for this is simple: if the opponent is a female royal family, it may sound bad, especially if they are not of the same sex.

“Princess’s son, what do you plan to do?”

“Of course, I’m taking you to Ishtalica.”

“… you’re a little worried.Are you sure? We all know the fact that His Majesty the Kingsguard Knight hates Round Hearts….. ”

“It’s all right, Your Majesty wants to meet with Ain, and I hear that Ain himself behaves wonderfully.Olivia said she didn’t need anything but Ain. ”

The word shook the Knights of Kintetsu into falsehood.

Well, if that’s what Olivia, who was called the Virgin, said.

Then she leaves in front of Chris and walks behind in an orderly fashion.

—-Nonetheless.

“Hah… only anxiety…”

First of all, it’s a tough business to keep from being found by people who don’t know the plan.

Particularly troubling are the warren herdsmen’s clandestine groups.Fortunately, Lili’s absence from King’s Landing, the pinnacle, was a salvation, but it did not change the task.

As long as you ride Princess Olivia, there’s no problem.

My mouth is bad, but I will be able to escape.

“I hope nothing happens to you and bring you here.”

And may a boy named Ain be a really good boy.

Chris looked up at the sky and prayed.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

It was soon after we arrived at the Harbor Town Round Heart that we learned that prayer was unnecessary.

She noticed that she looked at herself and was alert when she got off the ship.

—-Aren ‘t you afraid of me?

The sudden appearance of a super-Power Battleship far surpassed our own technology.Before that, and many knights appeared, Ain stood up to defend Olivia without fear.

Looking at it, Chris lowered his gaze in his helmet.

“… brave knight, we are not enemies.Don’t worry. ”

I couldn’t resist kneeling before him.

Perhaps there was a slight rejection in my heart of kneeling at him to draw the blood of the Round Heart.

But now she bent her knees and looked kindly at Ain, just as she did at Olivia.

“On your side?”

Chris smiled even more when he saw the neat Ain.

—-Looking at this, you really look like Olivia.

Murmuring in his heart, he tries to wipe out his hostility.

“Yes, I’m an ally. It would be rude of us to speak of an ally…At least you two aren’t enemies.–I ‘ll see you for the first time, Mr. Ain. ”

“Ah, yes… it’s nice to meet you…”

After spending an indispensable time talking with Olivia for the first time in a long time, or secretly returning to Ishtalica, Ain became Prince Wang because of the anxiety of the Kinsai Knight.

It was a busy, inexperienced and intense day for everyone.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

“Dark Straw… Dark Straw…”

“Chris, why did you suddenly start murmuring?”

One night, Chris was in an established room in the castle.

She was watching Martha clean the room, backwards from the name she had just heard.

… in one corner of the room, hugging my knees.

“Ein thought it was Katima-sama.”

“… oh, well…”

“What do you think?”

“We won’t respond.”

It was almost the same answer she gave Ain during the day.

“Just let me know. What kind of trick was it?”

“It is a technique that directly absorbs the energy of magic stones by wearing Katima’s special Mithrill nails and pointing them at the monster.”

Martha hasn’t said anything since.I couldn’t think of an answer, and I went back to cleaning with my cheeks twitching.

“Ah… I’m worried… it’s time to give Ein-sama a knight… a knight who’s upset about all this…”

Martha listens to Chris’s tweet.

“If that’s the case, my husband said he had an idea yesterday.”

“Eh, really? I thought you were thinking about it already… so what did you say?”

“In light of all the circumstances, I’m still going to ask Chris about you.”

“That’s… I’m fine, but Olivia is here.”

“So, as soon as it was officially decided to go to school, Ein told me to keep my dill close.”

“Ah… that might be good.”

Dill can protect Ain in school, and it’s okay to leave it to him after school in the morning.

His strength is by no means inferior to that of ordinary knights.He is a boy who, after graduating from school, can undoubtedly pass the Kintetsu Knight exam.

“Is Ain-san in school…”

Are you worried?

“Yeah… I’m just worried about the entrance exam.”

“Entrance exam? I’m sure there are a few schools to choose from, but perhaps Royal Kingsland?Even so, if Ain-sama’s academic ability and swordsmanship – is that so? ”

Martha noticed Chris’s concern and sighed slightly.

And they looked at each other and prayed that the upcoming exam would come to an end without incident.

—-But…

“Ah….”

Tens of minutes after dropping Ain off on the day the entrance exam for the Royal Kingsland School was held.

Chris felt the strange magical pressure drifting from the campus, at the same time he felt the fighting spirit released by the skilled adventurer, placed his hand on his forehead, looked up at the sky, and immediately crouched next to the wall of the castle gate.

“Mr. Ain… you did it…”

Silverd told me not to use the Dark Knight’s power, but the examiner must have incited me to use it.

This must be scolded.

As a guardian knight and elder.

… I thought…

“Though for the exam, I’d be angry if I was to be discredited for my time with Chris and the others.”

The harsh attitude of scolding disappeared lightly.

Hearing Ain’s words, I woosh disappeared when I saw his frustrated face.

——Your Majesty will be embarrassed…

I’m glad I didn’t have a brother.

I wouldn’t be angry if I were here, because I’d be just a sweet sister.

Chris was born aware of it and gave up talking.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Then Chris picked up Ain from school every day.

And during the excursion, I was impressed by the signs of a growing Ain and realized that everything was Warren’s plan.

I’m sure this one will be a great king.

The first prince of his childhood was also a genius, but Chris, who also found the power of a sure king in Ain, couldn’t help but look forward to his future.

Such a future king was a bit of a loose end, but I remember that Chris also enjoyed having a brother somewhere.

But those peaceful days are changed by the appearance of a great murderer.

Reports of the murderer appearing off Magna arrived a few minutes after Chris had taken Ain to school and returned to white.

The castle quickly became noisy, and Warren, who was counting on him, had a magical look all the time.

In the meantime, Chris was ready to go alone.

I’m the only one leading the assassination squad.

Lloyd should be in the castle, and we won’t find the right people to replace him.

Of course, there are a lot of knights in Ishtalica, and there are a lot of knights in key positions that put them together.

Even so, it is the other party.

The opposing monster was a sea dragon… If it had two, she knew that Chris was the best person to go, even from the point of view of combat power.

“Master Warren”

Warren hadn’t come to judge the nobles gathered in the large conference room, even though he had to make a decision as early as a minute and a second.

That looked very strange to Chris.

“I’m heading to Magna.”

“… no, I won’t.”

Not expecting to be opposed, Chris stood in his surprise seat.

“We don’t have time to worry!You know Warren!This commotion is no better than mine….! ”

“It’s not Chris who decides that.I, Warren Lark, am the judge. ”

“But…!”

Warren tried not to admit anything.

On the contrary, I suddenly started talking about another idea, but all this is obviously going to cause a lot of damage, and all this is something that Warren can’t do anywhere else.

The voices of the nobles recommending Chris increased, and the voices became uncontrollable waves for Warren.

But Warren doesn’t nod.

Without nodding thoroughly, dissatisfaction with him gradually increases among the nobles.Isn’t that trying to protect Chris, who is usually nearby?is a lump of doubt.

In fact, this is not a mistake.

Warren knew Chris’s lineage, so she decided never to send him to his death.

But at the end, Chris broke through and left the large conference room.

After seeing Olivia’s sad face, he left the castle in a hurry to avoid blunt determination.

She fought desperately on the battlefield.

But to fight desperately, after all, it was a gathering of people, and there was no room to deal with the great murderer named Ishtalica, the sea dragon.

Eventually, the war changed, and the remaining sea dragon became fierce.

Chris’s battleship was also targeted, and she was ready for the end.

—-At that time, he came.

Ain appeared as if he had been snatching his brain and stopped the sea dragon from rushing by himself.

He did it after that.

Alone, he accomplished his feat of crushing an almost intact sea dragon.

“Your Highness is safe. That’s why the vice commander…”

“No, I’m not leaving here.”

The therapist suggested that Chris take a break, but Chris stubbornly did not shake his neck vertically and did not want to let go of the Ain lying on his lap.

Had she had a satisfactory bed on this Gracier ship, she would have, but there was nothing left of it in this ship that had thrown away her luggage thoroughly.

Though Chris had the idea of getting into a battleship, he avoided floating to the sea and forcing Ain to move while he was awake.

“… I understand. If you need anything, please call me right away.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Chris avoids his hair hanging on Ain’s cheek with his fingertips and relieves himself of the warmth of his cheek.

“I’m mad at you… Mr. Ain”

Talk to him who hasn’t woken up yet and start to cry in his eyelids.

I learned the illusion that my emotions were messy and my vision was about to get rough.

“… no. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not risk his life just to help the guards.”

Chris said that while the therapist looked at Ain’s hands, which had just been bandaged.

Those arms, with the aftermath of the battle underwater, have painful bruises and wounds.

Chris reached out to his arm, touched it, felt bad if Ain hurt, and pulled his hand in.Instead, she whispers with a gentle stroke on Ain’s cheek.

“When did you get so big?”

I remember the day I first met Ain.

Ain always seemed to have grown so differently that his face and body had changed since the day I first met him.

There was still a little bit of vigor in the face that remained like a boy.

“If you don’t get up, I won’t forgive you.”

I want to keep an eye on it.

I wanted to keep an eye on him as he grew up.

“Oh, here…”

His lips moved clearly and made a voice.

Chris desperately endures the emotions that make him want to move his body and be happy, endures tears that are about to leak from his eyes, and speaks with as gentle a voice as possible.

“Are you awake? Your foolish Crown Prince?”

and.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

After the sea dragon disturbance, Ain was ordered to make his mark on Euro after a while.

It was good in itself.

From the beginning, Chris thought that he would accompany him, and when Warren asked him to do so, he replied without putting aside “I was going to do it.”

But what was unexpected was the return.

Chris couldn’t do anything.

Suddenly Ain’s appearance suddenly changed, and she was unable to move satisfactorily, losing to the intense magical pressure she was afraid of.

As a result, Ain destroyed the White King’s Wall.

He didn’t wake up for six months as a recoil with a powerful force that didn’t fit his height.

“Lord Chris, about Ein going to Isto…”

“I’ll go with you.”

“… that’s what I was hoping to ask of you.But it’s a quick answer. I’m a little surprised. ”

In a room in the castle, Warren was surprised when he opened his eyes to Chris’s immediate answer.

“—-I will definitely protect you this time.Even if it were my life, I would definitely protect Ain. ”

Hearing a resolute face, Warren smiles softly and beards.

Then he went on to say that he trusted him.

“Recently and before, I was relieved to hear that Chris was by Ein’s side.Now, was there any change in your mind? ”

“Change of mind…?”

“Yes, I think you two had a good time before, but recently it was remarkable.”

Chris was puzzled by the answer to the question.

If you ask me, I do feel like I’ve been with Ain a lot lately.

Because you helped me during the sea dragon?

Because I couldn’t do anything to get home?

… I felt like they were all different.

Looking at Warren, she blinks over and over again.

Why am I so close to Ain-sama…?

At least I knew I wasn’t in love.In view of the difference in age and position, I also knew that it was impossible.

“—Ain is the one who can’t let go.”

Naturally, this word leaked out of my mouth.

“If you look away, you’re going somewhere.I’m a little worried that it’s going to be so far away and out of reach. ”

Warren was smiling without saying anything.

Grandpa, you look like you’re having fun.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

The next appointment has been made.The town of the Adventurer, Balt.

Ain’s schedule was gradually set, and Chris heard that Krone would accompany him this time.

Ain and Krone are getting along year after year, showing us what they’re watching.This trip will be a good stimulus for both of you.Chris thought so secretly.

“We need to make sure Balt’s okay.”

Recently, Chris spent a day in his room checking Balt’s condition on holidays and checking Ain’s escort posture.

Needless to say, Balt is a dangerous city.

Many adventurers dream, carry their feet, and fight monsters for a thousand dollars.That’s where the most powerful monsters travel, even in Ishtalica.

—-Con, Con.

After the door was knocked, Chris got up from his chair and headed towards the door.

“Martha, what’s wrong?”

“The Kintetsu Knight asked me to do it.Please check here. ”

That’s what the Knights of the Guards were given.

If Chris is the usual Chris, look at it and sign that there is no problem after a few minutes.

That said, Chris was different today.

Today she asked Martha to enter the room and glanced at the work sheet she had received and said, “Oh, no, no.”

“… uh… it was like this last week… this week…”

Martha inadvertently opens her mouth when she sees a strange thought.

“What’s going on?It’s unusual for Chris. ”

“Well… lately, I haven’t been doing much work for the Kintetsu side… but that’s not true!?I’m at Ain-sama’s side and I’m doing the work I have to do! ”

Martha remembered when she heard the reply.

Speaking of which, Chris hasn’t been doing much with the Kintetsu Knight lately.Especially since Ain went into a six-month coma.

“As a result of focusing too much on Ain-san, have you slightly forgotten how to work in Kinsai?”

“Ugh……”

“I see. It looks like a picture star.”

“But!”

“I know. The work you have to do is well done.However, I used to have my face in a nearby packing place on holidays, so I guess it took me a few minutes to find out what happened. ”

Recent holidays have often been confirmed in the case of Balt, but in fact, it has not changed much before.

When I went to the Ist, I was working around the Ist and thinking about an escape route for when something happened.

Still further back, she was beside Ain and Olivia.

“For me, don’t worry too much.Ain is much more mature than those of his age… and unlike when he’s with Katima-sama, he’s usually calm. ”

“… I know.”

But I wanted to see it right next door.

But a few days later, Ain hears words she didn’t expect, and for a while, she becomes impatient as if she can’t find a purpose.

—-A few days after Martha came to the room, Chris was in his room the same way.

“What should I do…”

I was wondering what I was going to do for the new holiday.

Previously, I used to end up working as a Kintetsu Knight, leaving town and putting my face on a knight’s jam, but I didn’t feel like doing it.

“Wow, my guard… is that a child I don’t need?”

“… if I could protect you, that’s all I could do.”

I remember the words I murmured a little before I dropped Ain off.

“Sisters who can’t leave their brother… must be like this…”

I suppose one of my men had such a Kintetsu Knight.

I’ve heard that one of his men has a young brother who is already in love with him.

My brother dropped me off in the morning, and the first thing I heard when I got home was my brother’s voice.Furthermore, he said he would definitely go shopping with his brother on holidays, but he decided to go to a school in Magna one day.

Then, my subordinates used all their time off to calm down.

Normally, the position of Kintetsu Knight is the most elite of the knights and can only be a capable man.

That said, Chris almost reprimanded me for feeling so restless.

This was before Ain arrived, but now I know how my men feel.

“I’m sure my subordinates…”

I was a subordinate who told me to quit the Kintetsu Knight for a while, but my brother said, “Oneechan, who is a Kintetsu Knight, is cool.”

Chris was trying to help himself recover, but it seemed very difficult.

—-I like the usual dashing Chris.

Ain, for example, was confident that he could recover in an instant.

In my heart, when I had the delusion to be told in his words, I was feeling better, so I’m sure.But at the same time, what were you thinking, I fell to the floor with my head in agony.

“Stupid… if you’re not having a weird delusion…”

Afterwards, I strolled around the castle to suppress my clumsiness.

It was only a few decades later that Olivia, who was watching, told Martha to be quiet.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

There was a lot going on in Baltic.

It was inevitable to her now that Chris wanted to be by her side.

But something happened that didn’t matter.

“Withdraw one punishment from the past.”

I want to protect Ain.

The sight of Chris, who said he didn’t want to leave behind, was Ain fighting King Silver.

But Ain, you can’t put him back in Marshal, can you?After all, Chris is the Marshal….. ”

“Yes, so I dismissed Chris from the marshal.As my mother’s personal escort, I will regain my seat as commander of the Knights of the Guards. ”

Chris, who was listening beside him, noticed here.

And why Ain said he would use all of his rewards.And that’s why I decided to go out of my way to fight Silverado.

At the same time, my chest became hot.

And when I saw Ain thinking like my brother, I realized that his back was really getting bigger sometime.

Don’t simply say dismiss the marshal!I was surprised to hear that I would return Lloyd to the Marshal, but what more foolish things to say!?

It’s no wonder Silverado is so intense.

When Lloyd was dismissed during the sea dragon disturbance, it was quite impossible.

But even if Ain had to be stopped and punished for the fact that he was in danger, in view of the circumstances at the time, it was the only way to punish the Graciers.

That’s why Lloyd is no longer a knight, but a Silverado private soldier.

Instead, Chris was promoted to Marshal.

But Ain was talking boldly about overturning them all.

“I’ve heard a lot of conversations with Count Sage in support of that…A lot of fraud has been found.It’s indirect, but you can also get that reward, right?

“Ah, I’ll give it to you! But Ain!Things so lightly…. ”

Ain, who didn’t take a step, was usually like another person.

There’s no such thing as a boy.

There was a hero of the Sea Dragon crusade, crossing more than two corners with Silverado, who was said to be the famous one.

If Lloyd returns as a knight, it is the Marshal who will be able to maximize his power.Besides, Chris is not the right character or ability for the Marshal.Somewhat suitable for guards. ”

Everyone will be unfit!This kind of HR…. ”

“It’s not emotional.I want you to do something for “Ishtalica”, even if there is a slightly stronger part.It’s just that I’m all about it. ”

Chris changed his perception, ashamed of himself, who used to think Ain was like his brother.

I’m not a brother, I’m not a boy.

He is undoubtedly a man, and he is also a hero.

“… you? Why don’t you just leave it like this?”

When Larua finally opened her mouth,

There are some things I have to do.But it makes sense.Ain-kun, no… Prince Wang. I’ll get back to you tomorrow morning.So what do you think?

I told Silverado to admit it, and I made it.

Ain nodded after that.

Okay, I look forward to hearing from you in the morning…. Chris ”

“Heh…? Ha, ha!”

I’m leaving. Let’s go.

Chris merely responded honestly to his strength.

Looking at the back that was advancing in front of me, I thought it was a more reliable back than before.Soon, he’ll be about the same height as tall Chris.

After leaving the King’s bedroom, the intensity of the song will eventually subside.

I think I went to get Chris’s identity.

It’s not that light…! Everything that Ain-sama gave me is an important reward…! ”

That’s fine. I didn’t have any particular use for it, and I think I should have left it behind if I could use it this way. ”

She could hardly see the smile.

And…

“Christina Vernstein, I will relieve you of your duties as Marshal, and will escort Prince Ain and Second Princess Olivia.In addition, my duties as the commander of the Kintetsu Knight Corps continue…

The next morning, Warren asked under her and told her of her resignation.

Chris couldn’t stop her cheeks from getting loose.

Warren in front of me was ashamed to realize it, but he told me to go from Warren to Ayn immediately, and he took a light step to get under him.

“… from today onwards, I became Ein’s personal escort.It’s Christina Vernstein, thank you very much!

Chris has never felt more delighted to name himself this day.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

A little more time has passed since then.

The problem right now is that Ain has been acting a little strange lately.

He seems somewhat depressed or worried.Chris was frustrated with his helplessness when he only said, “It’s okay.”

Even though I was able to become a private escort, I was self-loathing as to whether I was weak.

“It must be a vessel…”

I thought you finally told me, and Chris couldn’t keep up with the understanding.

All I know is that Ain is suffering from royal troubles, and I don’t know why he was suddenly driven by such troubles.

Asking Lloyd, who went to Balt with Ain, said he still didn’t know.

When I asked Krone, she said she didn’t know because it was sudden.

—-But Chris gets a hint from someone.

“I don’t know much about Grandma, but she’s been in trouble since she went to the royal cemetery with you.”

I don’t like my grandmother or Belia.

I got information from Belia, the current queen of Lalarua’s exclusive service.

The trigger was when Chris was worried about Ain.Belia came to the salon in the castle where Chris was troubled, brewed warm tea and left without hearing anything.

“Bellia-san….?”

Why? Is it true?

I had a lot to ask, but Bellia left before I asked for any of this.The rest of Chris was neat, but in a few moments he took the tea to his mouth and calmed his mind.

I enjoyed the waiter’s tea for a long time, saying that Martha couldn’t win even if she stood up.

After swallowing again, Chris said, “Yes…”

Unless this is the thread of the solution.But I came up with something I could do, and I couldn’t think of anything I wouldn’t do.

Chris had an old ritual on his head that came to mind.

It was supposed to be an engagement ceremony.

But Chris decided to use it to show his loyalty.I thought it would be okay because there were never many people who knew what it meant.

–That’s right, I’ve become the exclusive owner of Ein.

It didn’t stop when I remembered it.

She carried her feet along with Ain during the gaze, and performed the ritual showing the magic stone.

Is your chest beating from tension or from another emotion?

At that time, Chris had no idea, but he had no regrets about performing the ritual.

“─ ─ Er, what happened suddenly?”

She was satisfied because Ain tilted her head.

Anything, Ain wasn’t worried, he was just thinking.

Having admired the first king, he said that he had nothing pessimistic about his future, only because of an event.

Knowing that he was quick, Chris dyed his cheeks bright red.

But immediately, loudly in your heart.

—-But it’s okay! I have no regrets that I gave the Magic Stone to Ain!So the process doesn’t matter!Results are all that matters!

I’m not making excuses to anyone, I’m hiding my shyness.

In this way, Ain told me to be the person to talk to.

He had the same smile as before, and when he saw it, Chris said, “Good,” and followed him.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Ain, who left King’s Landing on official business, hasn’t returned.

And Silverado didn’t tell us why.

But Chris knows.

Silverd whispered secretly, “What are you going to do now…”

That means Ain has a clear goal and he’s moving towards it.

“… Mr. Ain, where the hell are you doing this?”

I wondered what he was doing without me.

I knew I didn’t need my own escort.

Yeah, maybe something happened.

It’s unusual not to come back so long.

Then I have to go.

Chris was unknown and decided to act to investigate his whereabouts.

─ ─ Welcome home! ─ ─

Really ─ ─? Your body…!?

Previously sitting by her room window, she stood up to hear the knights outside the window.

Maybe Ain is back.

She could not be present or gone, but as soon as she walked through the mirror in the room, she barely reached out to her forehair.

You don’t have to worry about this.

I thought so, but I didn’t stop worrying about my appearance.

Ain-sama! Welcome home…

Rushing out of the room in a hurry, Chris ran in the direction of the signs of Ain.There was a tired Dill there, so I thought Ain was definitely back.

But Ain didn’t show up.

Instead, there was beauty very similar to Ain.

—-Whoever it is, it’s like Ain-sama (,,,,,,,) a daunting person.

At this time, Chris didn’t realize that he was thinking about Ayn’s principality.Because it was unconscious.

Hi, Chris.

The voice approached Chris’s feet naturally and beautifully.

If this happens, it’s already unattended.

“This is what happened, isn’t it strange?”

“Ah, no, it’s getting even more daunting… and I think it’s nice…But I was really worried about Ein. ”

As a result, I asked him to close his distance from Ain and sharpen his nose near him.

Otherwise, I wasn’t sure if it was really Ain.

“Really… you really were Ain-sama!?”

After I finished, I looked at Chris with a face that Ain couldn’t help it.

Having noticed that, Chris smiled bitterly at his behavior.

Soon, the bitter smile was dyed bright red.

Yes, it is.

Because Ain is taller than she used to be, and the sight I saw earlier seemed to confirm love between lovers.

It’s just an adult way of thinking, so I don’t know if I’m too old to look at it from the side.

This made me feel even more ashamed of my boldness earlier.

Chris is then forced to act differently by Ein being forcibly taken to Silverado.

At that time, I intercepted Martha who brought hair fasteners for Ain.

It suited me.

“… what is it?”

“Earlier, Ein and Chris were there.They said it was like a young couple, and it was nice between us and the waiters. ”

“Forget it!”

“I have to stop it. But don’t worry.However, Ain-sama was an adult, and there was really no discomfort when her body grew up like that. ”

“Wow! Wow!I don’t know! I don’t know any common language! ”

“… it seems to be a good old romantic story that the opposite sex that I thought existed like my brother is growing rapidly.”

Martha left the last word behind.

Chris, who was left behind, breathed roughly, leaving behind while dyeing his neck red.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Since then, I’ve been visiting the village of Elves and many other things.

There was also a war with Heim, and some dissatisfaction with Ein’s behavior, but Chris still fought desperately for Ain and for Ishtalica.

Chris risked his life after the Heim War.

To help Ain, he fought for his life to resurrect Archer.

I began to remember the loneliness around here, when the distance between Ain and Krone narrowed, and as a man and a woman, it became a different relationship.

But Chris still wanted to be by Ain’s side.

I’m happy to be around, and I don’t want to disturb you two.

I just miss you a little.

It was around this time that I realized my clear love, and I didn’t have the courage to take a step because I had never shown such feelings before.

But…

“Ohh, ooh… I’m sorry!I didn’t mean to! But, but….! ”

The cause was an accident.

But the lips did touch each other.

When they followed after the dragon believers, and went to Ist.

Ain and Chris were only for a moment, but they crossed lips and took root.

Ain has no conscious symptoms.

But Chris did.

“This… vine…?”

When I took off my clothes and looked in the mirror to bathe in the inn room at night.

When I traced my lips in a strangless figure and remembered the feeling of touching lips, vines appeared from my fingertips.

Chris quickly understood the reason.

The roots and the cause.

And I’m sorry I shed tears.

But at the same time, I didn’t want to give up.

I came back to thinking that I wanted to stand next to Ain.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

“I-I ‘ve stopped putting up with it.I talked to Krone the other day. ”

When he went to the elves before the Heim War began, Chris, who remembered the reward of the match he had exchanged along the way, decided to use it to confess.

“Dear Ein, I, Christina, admire you.”

The contents of the match are swords.

There is no chance of winning a normal battle.

Because the target is Ain.

“I love it! I’ve always loved it so much that I wanted to give my life!”

I had no time to breathe.

“I may have been making you squeeze a lot!I thought it was nice since I was rescued by a sea dragon, and I got sad when I left it in an investigation with Balt, and when I came back, I used all my rewards to put me aside… I can’t help it! ”

But Ain was upset.

I never thought I’d be confessed all of a sudden in a betting battle that didn’t last long before I was confessed.

In the end, Chris won the battle with his hands, but Chris didn’t regret it.

I was desperate before I made my first confession.

—-I ‘ve decided not to give up anymore.

This was a declaration of war.

To accomplish your first love by ex-elf.

To turn Ain around…

Ein and Krone’s engagement was officially announced.

I was glad to see both of them, and at the same time, I strongly hoped that I would.

Not so long after that, they had the opportunity to arm themselves outside.

It was hidden behind busy days, but it certainly was.

On that day, when the king’s city was covered in darker clouds, Ain took Chris on official business in the castle town.

The business was completed after the evening, when the azure sun sank across the horizon.

… suddenly it began to rain.

I thought I heard the sound of rain from afar, and the part of the castle where they lived began to rain.

Ain has always liked walking lately, and there is no carriage.

If they had waited, the carriage would have come home, but after that, they had a job to do at the castle.So I don’t have time to wait long.

When I started thinking about going home wet in the rain, the Kintetsu Knight who was accompanying me approached and said to Ain, who was resting under the building.

“If you don’t mind, please use your umbrella while you wait for the carriage.”

That’s what Ain handed me an umbrella.

He turned his gaze between the retreating Kintetsu Knight and the umbrella.

“… you know…”

“Yes? What’s the matter?”

“If you like, just Chris can use it.”

“No, or vice versa.”

“I don’t care.”

“I care!If only Ain-sama could get wet in the rain, I’d go home wet with her! ”

As such, you can’t use an umbrella by yourself.

And they had no intention of waiting for the carriage, so they had umbrellas, but they turned into castles wet in the rain.

In that case, Ain mouthes his thoughts.

“Then we’ll have to use this umbrella alone.”

This is definitely better than getting wet.

“… together?”

Chris listened carefully.I understood the situation with plenty of time and a few dozen seconds.

“Um! That’s what I mean with you… with you!?”

Ain, who didn’t know what it meant, spread his umbrella and said two of them would be inside.

“I don’t think it’s noticeable because it’s raining, so I want you to put up with it only today.”

“… it’s getting closer.”

“I know.”

“… don’t you want to come near me?”

Anxiously told, Ain sighed deeply and stroked her head a little violently.

Instead of showing anxiety about her hair disturbance, she was gladly sharpening her lips.

In that case, Ain took a step forward with his umbrella spread out.

“Here, let’s go home.”

Ah, Ain-sama!

With Ain forcibly pulling his arm, Chris slipped his body into the umbrella.

She persists in defying the momentum.

No, I put my body on Ain’s arm without defying him, and I put my arms together.

Her chest was pressed against Ain’s arm over her shirt, delivering the sound of an early bell to Ain in heat and warmth.

“There are other people around.”

“That’s not the problem!Are you sure?! Even if I reopen it and connect my hands! ”

Fine.

“— Ah, that…?”

Well, that’s what I’m going to say today.

Having gone by himself, Chris silenced without saying anything.

The force is applied to grasp Ain’s arm, bringing the body closer to nature.

“If you’re told later that you’re lying or that you can’t do it, I’m confident you’ll be infidel for decades.”

All I could do was calm down the beat that was too fast.

Even so, the bell must have been early, but the tension after that was pleasant and relaxed as the heart rushed them.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Chris, who was dreaming about what had happened before, woke up and looked up at a different ceiling.

I see. Yesterday I stayed in a detached house in Strom…

“Er… yesterday…”

Instead of jumping into the sea with Ain, Chris let him jump into the sea by hugging Ain, and enjoyed their time for a while before returning to the Mansion.

That’s right, they were dressed, and they both got wet in the sea, so they avoided going back from the front.Of course, it was embarrassing.

So he went back to the Mansion behind closed doors, looked nasty, and went back to everyone.

“I feel a little lonely… because I had such a dream…”

I’ve never felt this way since I woke up in the morning.

I became anxious and wondered if it had been a dream until yesterday.

But I immediately saw the star crystal at hand and stroked my chest down.

“I want to see you right now…..”

When she wore her shirt on Negrije, she slightly stepped towards the door.Open it gently and make sure there is no one in the hallway.

Fortunately, nobody was there until dawn.

He then knocked at Ain’s room with his fast feet.

The answer was immediately “Yes?When he returned, Chris stepped into Ain’s room.

When I get inside, I don’t see Ain.

I think it was the bedroom with the bed, and Chris walked straight to it.

Ain was there as expected.While he was sitting in bed and changing his clothes, he wore his pants, but the shirt he wore on top was still fastening the button.

Chris saw it and was driven by uncontrollable sweet feelings.

It was Chris.

Chris was somewhat dissatisfied, wondering who else he thought he was.

But not all the sweet feelings disappear.

Instead, only your dissatisfaction quickly disappears and you head towards Ain, who is lowering his hips on the bed.

“… I’m sorry, I want to sweeten it.”

Chris said so and hugged Ain as he sat down.

He rubs his face sweetly against his chest plate, puts a lot of effort into his back turned arm, and leaves his whole body to rub against each other.

Ain had never been sweet before, but she accepted Chris without stopping and gently stroked her back head.

“What’s wrong, suddenly?”

“I wanted to sweeten it.I have no problem with that. ”

“I see… it’s easy to understand”

Sweet Chris rubbed his body so that Ain’s body, which was on the way to holding his shirt, was gradually exposed.Also, even Chris wore only one Negrije under his shirt, and he didn’t hold the button firmly, so it was stuck.

White feet peeking from the hem of the shirt and shadows of hills peeking from the chest.

Unlike elf costumes, they are inflammatory and breathtaking.

Unconscious of her condition, she approached her face to provoke Ain and interacted once, twice and three times to pinch his lips.

Sometimes I turn my face against the light, but I immediately lose the feeling I want to sweeten and stare at each other, and then I pinch my lips again.

But that time will come to an end.

I surprised Chris by saying that Ain remembered “oh.”

“What’s wrong…?”

“… I’m sorry, maybe we should just stay away for a while.”

“—-I don’t want to… I don’t want to leave yet…”

But this time you should have listened to Ain.

As soon as there were two of them, Ain said,It was Chris. “That’s why I said it was better for Ain to leave…

“Ah, oh…?”

“Uh-oh!?”

The door to Ain’s room was open, and even more so, the door to the bedroom was also open.

By the way, it was Martha who came.Martha left King’s Landing before the sun rose, and came under Ain not even a few decades later.

Martha was away from Ain once she was asked to work.

That’s why she carried her legs here without knocking.

And Chris is stiff.It’s like it’s frozen.

“This is, uh…”

Martha was unusually confused.

Chris was sweet to Ain on the bed, so it would have been a lie not to be confused.

But Martha looked at Chris’s arm and guessed.

That’s the rumored “hidden treasure of the deep sea”, and I don’t know what happened yesterday anymore.

After all, Martha said nothing more.

Lastly, I lowered my head before leaving this room.

“… it looks like I’m still dreaming.”

“It’s real.”

“… it’s strange. Even though it’s in my dreams, Ain-sama’s feelings are very clear.”

That’s because it’s real.

Chris began to tap Ain’s chest plate weakly.Shake your head to the left and right and shake your glossy hair overhead on the bed.

“Okay, let’s take it.”

She buried her face on Ain’s chest plate and said her neck was bright red.

“But I have an excuse too.”

“Er… what do you mean?”

It makes no sense to make an excuse to Ain, but she talks about it to do something about this embarrassment.

“—-there’s nothing you can do about wanting to sweeten someone you like…!”

When Chris finished, he raised his face and he had a lot of tears in his jewel-like eyes.

She sharpened her lips and insisted that there was nothing she could do. She was desperate to reopen them and lay her lips on Ain again.
