Chapter 53
Chapter 53
Shingen watched Riru breathing soundly beside him . For him, who never had the chance to look closely, this is something new .
There is a scar on her cheek .
He never noticed before . She didn’t even bother to hide it, but Shingen never thought that there was a scar on Riru’s face . For girls, their face can be considered their life so most of them get awfully depressed if their face merely got scratched . And yet she’s so bright everyday . Too bright even .
Riru didn’t seem to have any qualm about exposing the scar . For warriors, it’s like a testimony that they have survived a lot of battles . It’s like a medal or something . Back in Shingen’s hometown, there is a saying: “Having a scar is honorable” . So it seems that there is a same concept here in Ardesil .
It seemed to be an old scar, judging from how faded and barely visible it is now . This girl went through a lot of hardships, Shingen thought to himself .
Both Mina and Riru reminded Shingen of his time living in the slums . He neither lived in poverty nor in wealth . Basically an ordinary life in an ordinary family so he can’t imagine what hardship the two had gone through .
Shingen gently stroked the scar whilst staring at the sleeping Riru . She had dark skin, slightly sticky due to sweat, but still soft and moist . No different from any ordinary girl . Shingen thought that she’s pretty cute like that .
Shingen smiled as he continued to look gently .
[Nn~nn……]
Riru suddenly moved, causing Shingen to quickly withdraw his hand .
[E, eh… . what am I doing… . . ? Why do I see this mass of masculinity as something cute… . ]
Ashamed of what he did just now, Shingen blushed . Thinking about again, he was alone with a girl sleeping on his room――――――Shingen eyes swam in agitation . His heart palpitated and beat violently, he could hear it .
[Nnn… . . Shingen~]
Riru called him in a low voice .
[Wha, what?]
[… . . gimme]
Shingen couldn’t hear what she said, so he leaned down and had his face closer to Riru . Her mouth moved ever so slightly .
[… . . sake]
[You still want to drink… . . ? I’ll just give her water… . . let me fetch some right now . ]
Shingen sat back up with a shaky expression . When he tried to stand up to get some water, a thin hand slipped out from under the blanket and grabbed Shingen by his trousers’ back pocket . He stumbled forward, pulling Riru’s arm along . Riru finally woke up due to the sudden pain .
She raised her body up . Standing on all four, she then rubbed her sleepy eyes .
[That hurts… . What are you doing… . ?]
[Shut up . Drunkard . ]
[Ne? Is this sake?]
[No . You’ve had enough . ]
[Muー]
Riru pursed her lips . An adjutant and also the core member of the White Wolf Knights is now reduced to a terrible drunkard .
Riru raised her upper body to a sitting position . The blanket which was covering her fell from her shoulders . Shingen sighed looking at her slackened face .
When Shingen glanced at her casually, he noticed a glorious scenery in front of him . Riru was sitting there only in her black bra and panties . Illuminated by the sunlight coming in from the window, her thighs bring out the air of an adult .
Shingen hastily turned away and, with a shocked voice, pointed to Riru .
[Wha, whaaa!? Underwear!?]
Riru who finally realized her own clothing condition laughed at the embarrassed Shingen .
[Ehehehe… . . that’s right… . . Should I… . . take off my top?]
[Stoppp!]
[Auu… . ]
She fiddled on the strap of her bra . Afterward, much to the clueless Shingen, Riru actually came close to him . It only served to make him restless .
[O, oi, come on now! Don’t come any closer! A lot of things are wrong here!]
[And why is that~]
[You are drunk! So you probably don’t realize what are you doing, right?! You’ll be embarrassed to death once you are sober!]
[Fufufu… . it’s fine . This is nothing to me . ]
Shingen was overwhelmed by Riru’s breathing . It felt like one could get drunk just from inhaling her breath . He nearly collapsed . His vision seemed distorted for a short while .
Shingen is actually weak to liquor . Even a single sip is enough to make his face red .
Fearing that Shingen may collapse at any time, Riru jumped in to catch him . But it seemed that she wasn’t really up for that task . She lost balance when Shingen’s face fell directly on her soft twin hills . And so both of them got pushed down to the bed .
She had straddled Shingen with both of her hands pressing his hands against the bed . He was restrained . Riru laughed giddily at Shingen, looking down with a drunken face .
Her gaze turned hot .
(―――――――Eh, what is this……?)
He started thinking about what he’s going to do . Unable to decide on anything, his body froze . The girl didn’t say anything and simply gazed, but she seemed like she has something to say .
[Wha, what is it? What do you want to say…?]
[Give~me~sake~]
Shingen, while feeling relieved upon hearing that, muttered .
[… . ha . What the… . sake?]
He was amazed . He simply couldn’t understand why she still want to have more despite being this drunk . She was steaming with sweat but it wasn’t smelly . Perhaps the smell of alcohol was too strong, but Shingen felt like the fragrance of liquor permeated out of her body . He could smell the scent of alcohol mixed with faint sweet fragrance of fruits .
Shingen looked up and away from her to distract himself . Suddenly, Riru lifted her eyebrows . Her eyes as if she was looking at a distant place .
[… . Leader Maruto]
[Huh?]
[… . Leader, I’ve fallen in love with you . For a very long time, since that moment… . ]
Having lived as if she’d die tomorrow, only Maruto who saw her differently among the crowds of people who despised her as if she’s filth . He grasped Riru’s hand without hesitation . That in itself was impossible for Riru to forget . Riru then pledged everything she had for Maruto who continued to look at her the same way he did that day . Of course, with all her mind and body…
There was only Maruto’s face in Riru’s eyes . The difference in hair color doesn’t matter . Under her intoxication, with her face burning hot, she told him her feelings .
[… . . I… . until the end… . . I want to become your strength . A sword and shield for you, leader… . ]
Whilst saying so, her face gradually closing in to Shingen’s face . Her lips approached his . Shingen shook his body to resist .
[Wa, wait a minute! I’m not Maruto! Wait, calm down]
However, she ignored Shingen’s words .
When their lips nearly touched, the door unexpectedly swung open . Riru stopped moving . That accident actually saved Shingen but――――――it’s impossible for the door to open by itself .
In other words, someone was visiting Shingen’s room . At that point, Shingen felt his blood boiling and his heart palpitated . The visitor shouldn’t have any idea about Riru being in his room .
[Shingen, how long do you want to sleep? Do you want to make this Ortashia mad?]
When he heard that voice, Shingen turned pale . It means that a brutal general with one eye is coming towards them .
Ortashia’s eye widened upon seeing the condition of the man and woman in front of her . In her vision, there is Shingen laying there on the bed with Riru straddling him . She glanced at both Shingen and Riru alternately .
Her stare became ruthless .
A shiver ran through his spine . On the eve of battle, he actually dared to fool around with a girl . Shingen felt like he’ll die thanks to this misunderstanding .
Whether or not she’s aware of the situation, Riru actually waved and greeted at the visitor .
[Ah~ Your Highness… . . good morning-]
Ortashia gave a bitter smile, seemingly in deep thought .
[A, apparently, I was in the way… . ahaha… . ]
She surprisingly didn’t get mad and looked upset instead as she left the room .
[… . it’s over . . ]
