Chapter 261: 261
The 28th Day of the Wind month . On that day, I was in despair .
I had expected that this day might come, but it seems that today really is the day .
Yes, it happened while I was eating dinner at Lilia-san’s mansion .
Putting the fork down on the plate I was about to eat, I quietly shook my head .
[……Kaito-senpai? What’s the matter?]
[A- Ahhh, no, it’s just that I don’t have any appetite……]
[Are you alright, Kaito-san? You look kind of pale……]
[Ah, no, I’m fine . ]
Hina-chan and Aoi-chan, who were sitting near me, called out to me with concern, but I couldn’t hide the discomfort that was crawling through my body as I tried my best to reply with a smile .
It seems that she has felt my discomfort, as Lilia-san hurriedly rushed over to me . This was my biggest miscalculation though .

[Kaito-san!? Are you alright!? Are you not feeling well……]
[Ah, no……]
[I was being careless . No matter how much the blessings keep us from getting sick, your body could still weaken from something like fatigue…… Luna!? Get a doctor right away!]
[Eh? Ah, you’re mistaken!?]
Arehh? This is bad, I felt like the situation had turned serious . No, no, you’re worrying too much, Lilia-san…… . Isn’t it a bit too much even though I just said that I don’t have any appetite!?
Or rather, w- what should I do…… This flow of conversation…… How the heck did this happen?
[My Lady, unfortunately, finding one at this time of day is difficult, and I don’t think Miyama-sama’s situation isn’t that serious…… Why don’t we just let him take a night’s rest for the time being and look at his situation again tomorrow?]
[T- That’s right! I- I think that’s a good idea too . ]
Just for this day, I want to give Lunamaria-san my thumbs up . That’s a great follow up…… With this, Lilia-san would also……
[That’s no good! If we do that, what will you do if Kaito-san “dies”!?]

[I’m not going to die, you know?! Eh? Do I really look that bad!?]
It seems that it wasn’t effective to the worrywart Lilia-san, as she wasn’t easily convinced, and for some unknown reason, me, the person who Lilia-san is supposed to be worried about, is soothing her along with Lunamaria-san .
Thereupon, somehow, we somehow managed to convince Lilia-san that I will be getting one good night’s rest…… and if I didn’t feel better, it was decided that we would call for a doctor tomorrow .
Laid down on the bed in my room with a wet towel on my forehead, I began thinking .
How did I get into this mess? I- I can’t say it, I can’t tell them now that I’m “not really sick or anything like that”……
No, in the first place, did I ever tell them that I was feeling sick!? Just because I said that I don’t have any appetite, you’re treating me like a sick person!? Seriously, how the heck did this happen……
As I was thinking about this, the door to the room that had been quiet was vigorously opened .
[Kaito-kun!? A- Are you alright!? I heard you were sick, so I rushed over!]
[……Where did you even hear that from……]
[From Shalltear…… Ahh, that’s right! I brought you some fruits! Can you eat?]

[Eh? T- Than—– wait, that’s a lot! What’s with that amount!?]
Kuro bursts into the room, looking very flustered, and reaching into her black coat…… She pulls out a large amount of fruit enough to fill half the room .
Then, turning her back to the pile of fruits, Kuro comes closer to me, who is lying on the bed, with a look of concern on her face . ]
[Are you alright? Does it hurt anywhere? Should I change your towel?]
[Ahh, no, I’m really okay……]
[R- Really? That’s good……]
Hearing me say that I’m fine, Kuro patted her chest in relief . She then prepared a small chair and sat down beside the bed .
[However, for you to suddenly get sick…… I guess you were really accumulating quite the fatigue huh? You need to get some rest . ]
[……Ah, no, you see…… K- Kuro……]
[Unnn?]

[A- Actually…… I’m not really sick……]
[… . . Eh?]
I was already at the end of my conscience . The fact that the other party is Kuro may have had an influence on it, as I couldn’t hide it any longer and slowly began to explain the real situation .
[……E- Errr…… To sum everything up…… Kaito-kun doesn’t want to eat “a food you disliked”, so you said that you don’t have any appetite, and because of that, everyone misunderstood?]
[……Yes…… That’s right . ]
I’m so embarrassed right now that I want to disappear…… Yes, in the end, the cause for all this ruckus is just because of this .
In fact…… I think it’s pathetic since I feel like a young child, but I hate “bell peppers” .
Unnn, I’m just really weak with them . Maybe it’s because I have strong memories of hating it as a child, but I can’t help but reject that .
I was originally apprehensive about it . In this world, there are ingredients with different names than the ones in my world, such as ripple fruit .
So, I had been on the lookout, wondering if there might be bell peppers in this world somewhere, but I hadn’t encountered them even after quite a few days of living in this world, so I somehow let down my guard .

Then, unbeknownst to me, there was a bell pepper in today’s dinner that I brought in my mouth…… and recognized them by the taste I hated spreading in my mouth .
Thinking about it now, I could have just honestly told them that I really hated that food, but in front of my two junior girls and my own girlfriend, I was too embarrassed to mention that I didn’t like bell peppers, and my puny pride got in the way .
……My bad, Aoi-chan, Hina-chan…… I was looking pale simply because I hated the taste of bell peppers .
……I’m sorry, Lilia-san…… I said that I didn’t have any appetite, but I actually just didn’t want to eat bell peppers .
[H- Hmmm . Lilia-chan being hasty in making decisions may be a problem but…… Kaito-kun, you also need to apologize for worrying about her . ]
[……Unnn . ]
[Well, I’m really glad you’re okay, Kaito-kun . ]
