Chapter 124
――Monyu .
I received the impact of that sensation .
What was that?
A certain sense of a warm touch that seemed almost addictive .
A dreamlike softness like if a marshmallow had body heat .
But even so there’s a flexibility that responds excellently when touched .
Thi, this is irresistible……!
Munyu munyu――gotsun!
「――Oww!」
I came to, after taking an impact that made me feel like stars were scattering from my forehead .
「……Huh? Just where is this……? On that note why have you fixedly turned your eyes to me from such a close up distance oneechan? Those eyes are already the most attractive . 」
「Carefree arren’t you . 」
「Ihyaiihyaii」
For some reason my cheeks are going, guni~~ while being pulled .
Her brown short cut hair that mysteriously calms my heart, shines in sunlight .
Is it, morning……?
「More importantly, if you’re okay start by giving Eclair a look okay . 」
Being urged on I look to the bed beside me and, having layed down the Eclair with a sickly appearance as if this is her dying moment is releasing ragged breaths .
Her two side up hair is scattered on the white sheets as if from exhaustion .
Eclair hid her face with her arm with an appearance that said she found the refreshing morning to be irritating .
「Eclair!」
「……Aah, you’re awake Alice . 」
My gaze met with Eclair’s as she tilted her face slightly――
「――Ah!?」
This side also went pale, due to the traces of blood on her cheeks that were visible through the gaps in those arms .
I can feel magic power, from Eclair’s tightly shut right eye!
My conscious awoke in a single burst .
「So, sorr――muguguu . 」
Eclair sealed my mouth when I jumped up and came close, like it was bothersome .
「……Since it’s fine . It’s fine if you don’t apologize . More importantly hurry up and reseal this okay……since this side hasn’t slept since yesterday……」
My chest hurt as her words stabbed in .
That the meaning of entrusting the seal on Eclair’s demon eye, is this sort of thing……
Not just releasing the seal but, the matter of properly resealing it in the end is also my responsibility .
「So――muguguguuu!」
「Ahーhai hai, I don’t know what you want to say while making a pure red face but, it’s fine already so hurry up and reseal this . Since with that done Eclair, will sleep a little……」
Troublesome person aren’t youー, Eclair-san complained as such while coughing out her breath .
……I suppose that’s right, I have to hurry now!
「……Understood!」
Pushing Eclair’s hand out of the way, my face approaches her right eye .
Somehow a vermilion unrelated to her right eye entered Eclair’s face .
Seeing that I ended up in a strange mood over here as well but……
「……I’ll apply a pain pain fly away charm . 」
「That……is something done with children right . 」
「It’s something done with precious people . 」
「……This exchange, haven’t we had it before?」
「Have we?」
We smiled faintly together .
I touched my lips to, the eyelids of the Eclair who closed her sulky seeming eyes as such .
Hot……
Holding the intent to reseal it, and after that while truly praying, pain pain fly away .
My left arm’s Sylv・Faeria shined and, the crimson magic power from Eclair’s right eye dispersed .
Momentarily, Eclair sunk into her bed as if releasing the power from her shoulders .
「Eclair!?」
「It seems she’s asleep okay . She was at her limit so, let her be at ease okay . 」
Shion-san put her hand on my shoulder so I nodded reluctantly .
I checked so as to be careful and, her adorable sleeping breath tickled my ear .
Eclair……I’m truly grateful .
I have to give her lots of thanks when she wakes up .
There’s a bucket with water and a towel on the side table so, I wring that and give Eclair’s right cheek a light rubbing .
After that I try putting the towel on her forehead .
It’d be good if she became a little more at ease though .
On that note……her demon eye sealing necklace is set on the base of her neck isn’t it .
「I wonder why, it didn’t reseal with this……?」
Well, I’m saying something with a phrasing like I’m shifting the blame even though I’m the failure here but that is……since it was an emergency?
「That’s because the demon girl’s demon eye matured and, it became too much for an item of that level to contend with . Kua……」
「Till . 」
Canceling her magic of blue ice, Till made a large yawn .
One more magic power that was enveloping Eclair, dispersed .
「Eh, did Till possibly look after Eclair’s demon eye?」
Through the night?
「She wouldn’t have held out for one night had it been neglected, wiping the ass for her idiot disciple is a teacher’s responsibility you know . I suppose that’s still how it is for now . 」
「Uu……I owe you one Till . 」
In one way or another she takes care of people without regard for loss and gain doesn’t she……while acting like a contrarian .
「There’s also a reason, in that Est entrusted the seal to you . 」
That’s so isn’t it .
I didn’t think deeply on why she went out of her way to entrust the seal to me but, it was this sort of thing .
That it became unable to keep up with a simple item, the demon eye really is frightening .
I trusted what came after to Eclair while betting on a sudden reversal but, I caused trouble for her didn’t I……
「Kufu, you’ve reached a certain level of actual ability but, the aspect where your guard is soft still isn’t there yet . If you’re aiming to be my successor, don’t let your feet be swept out from under you . Whoever it may be . 」
「I’ll engrave that in my gut……」
「However――」
And so her disinterested seeming contrarian eyes turned to Eclair and, Till smiled a little .
「That there are people you can unconditionally rely on before thinking about it in your head, that sort of thing is pleasant . 」
And, sleep .
Having said what she had to say, Till withdrew into the inner room .
……Shit .
She’s too large for how small she is .
「Till, I’ll do my best! Thank you very much!」
I saw just her hand waving loosely, from the other side of the door .
◇■◇■◇
I’m going on a walk together in the forest .
This is of course, the elf village in the Forest of Ash .
One night ended and, the sun’s rays leaked through the leaves into the village surrounded by massive trees .
That warmth was sufficient to wipe away last night’s disquiet .
In the magic sealing forest to the east, I was always nervous due to thinking that wild animals or monsters could come out at any time but, as it could be said that this is within the village it’s protected by a special barrier .
The scenery also changes when the sense of security is different .
The sparkling glow of the sun’s rays became a kaleidescope and gives entertainment to the eye so, hou, it’s enough to leak a sigh in admiration .
「……If the black person next to me with a stern face weren’t here . 」
My sigh of admiration, turned into a sigh of lament .
I acted poorly so a guard was attached when I went out on a walk you see……
I can’t take a walk on my own .
Well there’s no way I can leave this guy as Eclair’s bodyguard so, that means Shion-san and kurozukume have their roles alloted though .
Eclair is cute so it makes you want to do a prank on her when she sleeps so, it can’t be helped can it .
Since I become like that .
「If you become as strong as your shishou and have no gaps, I won’t go out of my way to follow you around . 」
「U……since that’s the difference in our years . 」
I sharpen my lips and resist .
「I think it’s a difference in personality though?」
「……」
Attentiveness has, aspects displayed more by personality than age doesn’t it, now that it’s been pointed out .
I’ll stop thinking since it would reach a conclusion of the sort that I won’t become the strongest if I accept that .
Positive thinking is itself the nourishment of growth .
「Oi . 」
「Hai?」
He was giving me a glare like he was about to kill me so, I try tilting my head a little and look up at him .
My long hair flowed tickling my neck so I went「Fuwaaa!?」a little .
……Did it show on my face?
Looking at me as such, he made a face 3 times sterner than usual and his eyes wander without settling down .
However I’ve had all this time with this guy’s fearsome aspects so, it’s not scary iss it .
「……Aah, no . I’m sure you’ve heard this a lot but, is your body alright?」
「Mo~~! Haven’t I already thoroughly explained this with oneechan! There’s nothing wrong! Besides which it seems that I also had Till look at me so, it’s alright . 」
Persistent aren’t they~~, and this guy with them!
「I see……well, in that case it’s fine . 」
「……Maa, I do have a place I’m concerned with though . 」
Such that it wouldn’t reach the ears, I tried murmuring so as to recall my memories .
To make a secret confession, yesterday night was incredible……
No no, it’s not the case that Carmel did something to me okay?
It was the drug okay?
But though my memory is vague how should I say this, that is……the sensation from tasting a girl’s divine mystery?
It was already that you know, you could call it the satisfaction that becomes possible when the man returns?
Girls are, incredible……
「I think you wouldn’t understand but . 」
「……What are you nodding about with enlightened eyes, it weirdly gets on my nerves . 」
Kurozukume drew his eyelids together .
Being angry uses energy so, this guy’s also incredible with how he’s always angry isn’t he .
「By the way, even though we’re going to greet the village head, why is it necessary to go to the ruins?」
「Apparently this elf village head uses the ruin’s deepest area as his residence and has settled there . Because of that . 」
Right, we’re presently heading toward the ruins that seem to conceal something .
It seems that various conversations advanced while I was passed out yesterday but, I still haven’t heard the detailed parts .
In any case it seems Carmel has been confined in the village’s prison and, she’s lost real power .
It seems that Eclair dealt with her so, the thing Shion-san talked about while smiling regarding the results was『It’s pitiable to leave the traces of burns on a girl’s bare skin . 』and, she gave a heal after Carmel passed out .
