Chapter 2425: Spreading Aftermath
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
When I returned home from Archlesia Empire, it was already around the time the sun was about to set. Shopping and going to the cafe with Marie-san had been so much fun that quite a bit of time had passed.
Since Marie-san is younger than me and about the same age as Aoi-chan and Hina-chan, I cant help wanting to buy her things or look after her.
Even though shes a noble lady, she isnt noble-like in a bad way; she feels surprisingly down-to-earth, so personally, shes very easy to get along with.
Well, in any case, I had fun, and she seemed happy, so that was good. According to Akane-san, various troubles were drawn to her because of the Ritch Baronys territory matters, even though that wasnt my intention, so it seems this outing was a good distraction for her, which really was a relief.
She mentioned admiring pretty clothes and such too, so maybe Marie-san actually likes shopping a lot. She doesnt have the financial leeway to visit the high-class shopping district often, but since her situation must be difficult, maybe next time I can take her there again as a little break.
[Welcome home, Kaito-san.]
[Sieg-san? Good evening. Just finished work?]
[Yes, today I was on duty until evening, so I just got off. And I happened to see you coming home]
[I see I was thinking of taking Bell for a short walk before dinner, would you like to come with us?]
It seemed Sieg-san had finished work at just the right time, so since wed crossed paths, I invited him to come along on Bells walk.
Bell is quite prideful, but shes fond of Sieg-san, who takes good care of her, and doesnt mind letting Sieg-san ride on her back, so going for a walk together wouldnt be a problem.
Well, I got home later than expected today, so it wont be a long walk, just something light
[That sounds nice. But in that case, how about we go after dinner?]
[After dinner?]
[Yes. Apparently, todays a night when you can see a meteor shower. If we head a little farther out to the hill southwest of the capital, we should get a beautiful view. If youre willing, would you like to go see it together?]
[That sounds great. It seems fun, and Bell would enjoy a long trip too.]
According to Shiro-san, there is no such thing as outer space in this world, and the stars and moon in the night sky exist as part of a kind of world system.
Still, its not the exact same sky every night, there are periodic meteor showers, solar eclipses, and lunar eclipses, so the night sky doesnt feel any different from the one in the world I came from.
[Since its a special occasion, shall we bring some alcohol? Drinking a little while watching the stars sounds nice.]
[Indeed. In that case, I still have some ripple wine, the same one we drank together when Kaito-san visited my family home in Rigforeshia, so lets bring that.]
[Im looking forward to it. Ill go explain things to Bell real quick. Time-wise, right after dinner should be fine?]
[Yes. If we head out about 30 minutes after dinner, it should be just the right timing when we reach the hill.]
An unexpectedly fun plan had suddenly been added to my evening. After having a quick chat with Sieg-san, I explained things to Bell and then returned to my room.
Since Id be heading out again soon, I didnt bother changing into loungewear, staying as I was should be fine. There wasnt anything extra I needed to bring either; most things were already inside the Magic Box.
As I was thinking that, a section of my rooms wall suddenly slid open revealing a staircase of some sort, and Alice climbed up from it.
[Kaito-san, if youre going to see the meteor shower, Ive got something good for you.]
[Before that, I want to know where those stairs Ive never seen before lead.]
[Well, somewhere. Anyway, more importantly, here!]
[I really should ask Canalis-san to do a thorough sweep someday So, what is hm? Wine?]
I accepted what Alice handed me despite my exasperation. It was a bottle of wine that looked rather expensive. Is she telling me to take it with me and drink it with Sieg-san while we watch the meteor shower? But why wine, all of a sudden?
[Well, I was planning to drink it myself but the situation isnt really one I can just sit back and enjoy, so please drink it with Sieg-san.]
[U- Unn? Well, I mean, I appreciate the wine, but did something happen?]
[Hmm, rather than something happened, its more like somethings about to happen well, dont worry about it. If you start getting involved in weird ways, theres a chance even more things will pop up, so just dont worry about it.]
[Wait, that sounds almost like youre saying its basically my fault]
[Well, its fine. This Subject K is an easy one for me, just some light information control. So dont think about it and enjoy your date with Sieg-san~~]
Saying that, Alice vanished. H- Hmmm Im curious, obviously, but if Alice says its fine, then I guess Im better off not worrying about it.
Stomachache Devil : [Carelessness, a lack of caution tell me, is that really something that applies only to the Stomachache Warriors?]
Serious-senpai : [W- What are you?]
gar Devil : [You, Serious-senpai. Are you acting like some detached observer, thinking you can just relax and have a good time? Arent you letting your guard down a bit too much?]
Serious-senpai : [Eh? M- Me?]
Devil : [Your turn has come thats what this means. The sweet dream is over no, perhaps the sweet dream is only just beginning]
Serious-senpai : [Y- Your name is changing!]
Su Devil : [Cant understand? Or is it that you dont want to understand? Or perhaps]
Serious-senpai : [A- Ahh n- no way]
Sugar Devil: [Dont tell me youre still holding onto the fantasy sweeter than honeyed toast Its a stomachache chapter so Ill be fine? ]
Serious-senpai : [Gyaaaa!? It appeared!?]
