Chapter 206 I Fawned on Kuro to the Fullest

The 17th day of the Earth month. I came back from Rigforeshia in the early afternoon and briefly reported to Lilia-san and the other about what happened…… and that Sieg-san and I had become lovers.

Thankfully, they all congratulated me from the bottom of their hearts, especially Lilia-san, who was more delighted than the others…… Sieg-san and Lilia-san are childhood friends, so Lilia-san seems to be happy that Sieg-san’s love came to fruition.

It looks like they were going to start a blessing party at that moment, but since Sieg-san and I were probably tired, we decided to talk about that at a later date, and we went back to our rooms.

However, I guess I’m really pretty tired…… I’m especially feeling really sleepy. I haven’t got a good sleep in the three nights I’ve stayed at Rigforeshia.

I don’t know if this is because of Shiro-san’s blessings or not, but I don’t see any signs of ill health despite the fact that I should have been up all night for three nights.

It’s just that, even though my body is healthy, I still accumulated three nights’ worth of sleepiness…… I’m guessing it’s partly because I’ve loosened up when we arrive back in the mansion that I’m used to living in, but from what I feel, I feel like I’m going to collapse into the bed and fall asleep the moment I get back to my room.

With that in mind, I returned to my room and opened the door…… and unfortunately, it looked like I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep right away.

[Ahh, welcome back!]

[I’m home…… wait, Kuro? You came huh.]

[I just got here. I knew Kaito-kun came back today after all.]

[……Eh? Why?]

[Well, that’s obviously because I secretly strengthened the “Detection Magic technique” casted on the nec——- It was just a hunch!!!]

[Wait a moment there, I heard that first half……]

She just said it was Detection Magic. She definitely just said Detection Magic earlier…… Eh? Does that mean this necklace was imbued with a technique that helps her know where I am? Unnn, I had vaguely thought this necklace had such an effect but…… Where did my privacy go?

[……Kuro, do you know what privacy means?]

[Eh? Unnn, it’s that thing that disappeared from Kaito-kun after Shiro liked you, right?]

[……That’s right…]

I guess that’s how it really is huh. Before Kuro did that, I was always being watched by Shiro-san…… Unnn, I didn’t have any privacy to breach through to begin with.

Seeing me slump my shoulders in dismay after remembering that fact, Kuro-san spoke to me, looking a little flustered.

[I- It’s alright!? I make sure to respect your privacy, Kaito-kun!]

[……Detection Magic.]

[Ugghhh…… T- That’s just, you know, if some kind of disaster happened to Kaito-kun…… I make sure that I don’t hear the conversation you had with others……]

[Well…… I guess that’s better than Shiro-san huh……]

[U- Unnn! Don’t worry, if any child tries to do something bad to Kaito-kun…… I’ll beat them up!]

Arehh? I don’t know why, but why did I just have a scene in my mind that looked like a nuclear bomb went off…… It’s just my imagination, right? It must just be my imagination…… I’m afraid I can’t say it’s impossible though.

[Well, putting your privacy aside…… Kaito-kun!]

[Ehh? What?]

[Come, lie face down on the bed……]

[Eh? W- Why?]

[Come now, just go…… Alright?]

[I- I understand.]

I had no idea what Kuro’s intentions were, but she always says the craziest stuff, so even though I was somewhat confused, I slumped over on the bed as I was told.

……As I was wondering what to do from here, I heard Kuro’s voice, sounding as if she’s having fun.

[Upsy-daisy……]

[Wha!? Wait, K- Kuro!?]

With her shout, I felt a weight on my back…… no, around my waist, and I reflexively understood that Kuro had climbed on top of me.

Or rather, Kuro’s too light!? M- Moreover, she feels soft…… W- What the heck is this? What’s with this situation!?

[Just hold still…… I’ll massage you.]

[……Ehh? Massage?]

[Unnn. Kaito-kun looked like you’re quite exhausted…… So, I’ll give you a massage.]

[………………..]

As her gentle voice resounded in my ears, Kuro’s hand touched my shoulder and began to slowly rub my shoulder.

[Uwaahh, you’re really stiff.]

[I- Is that right?]

[Kaito-kun, you’re the type to hoard them on your shoulders huh…… Alright then, let’s go with the special version!]

[ ! ? ]

The moment I heard her mention this “special version”, a numbing warmth spread across my shoulders, and I wondered what this is…… It’s as if my stiff shoulders are being repeatedly shaken…… It feels inexplicably good.

This is amazing…… It’s as if a massage machine is being used to massage my shoulders…… It feels really good.

[……K- Kuro? What is this……]

[I’m rubbing your shoulders while applying a weak Recovery Magic. It will feel painful if I were to use a strong Recovery Magic after all…… so I’m slowly rubbing them……]

[Uwaahhh…… This feels…… really good.]

[Ehehe, I’m glad…… Just stay comfortable down there then. I’ll make sure to take Kaito-kun’s tiredness away.]

I’m not sure if I can call it a blissful moment, but it seems that I’ve been storing up more fatigue than I thought I had….. and receiving Kuro’s massage feels like heaven.

Moreover, was it because of her love? I can feel that she really cares about me from every single touch, making me feel helplessly happy.

It’s probably because it’s Kuro, she understands exactly how I feel with my Sympathy Magic, and she’s able to change her emotions that she transmitted to heal not only my body, but my heart as well.

[……But Kuro…… Why did you know that I’m tired……]

[I would know…… It’s about my beloved Kaito-kun after all.]

[……I see.]

Ahh, this feels addictive…… It feels absurdly good, and her gentle voice makes me feel warm, as if she’s directly embracing my heart.

Feeling Kuro’s gentleness and overflowing affection, I surrendered my body to her massage, feeling inexpressible happiness.

Had about 30 minutes passed? After Kuro’s massage, I felt as if a weight had been lifted off my body, and I was happy to say that I was feeling light around my body and I’m in great shape.

Then, I sat up as Kuro moved from on top of me, and thanked her.

[Thanks, Kuro. It feels really great.]

[Really? That’s great…… But, it’s not over yet though?]

[……Eh?]

[Teiii!]

[Uwaahhhh!?]

Hearing my words, Kuro brightly smiles, and telling me it’s not over yet, she pulled my hand towards her.

I’ve already said this many times before, but there’s no way I can compete with Kuro’s strength. Kuro easily pulled me towards her body, and rested my head on her soft lap.

[……I still have lots of stuff to heal from Kaito-kun.]

[……Kuro, errr, ummm……]

Feeling very thankful, Kuro’s lap pillow is really comfortable like always.

As I’m thinking that if I’m not careful, I might immediately fall asleep, I feel embarrassed, lightly scratching my cheek while my head is laid down on her lap.

Then, with a smile so cute that I feel like she’s taking my breath away, Kuro smiles and gently pats my head.

[……It’s okay. Kaito-kun.]

[Eh? It’s okay… What do you mean?]

[I’m making sure that right now, not only Shalltear, but Shiro-san also couldn’t see into this room so…… It’s really just me and Kaito-kun right now here.]

[……………..]

I’m not surprised she can do something like this. Kuro is the same level of existence as Shiro-san, so it’s no surprise that she can set up a barrier that can only be seen through by Shiro-san if she seriously tried to peek inside.

I don’t think Shiro-san would try to forcibly peek either if Kuro had set up such a barrier…… So, I think it’s an undeniable fact that it’s just the two of us now.

However, I immediately didn’t understand what she meant by those words, so I tilted my head, but Kuro continued speaking with a smile on her face.

[I think the Kaito-kun who is always doing his best is really cool…… However, we all get tired.]

[……U- Unnn. That’s true……]

[Because Kaito-kun is trying to be reserved from the people around you, you would always try to look like you aren’t that tired…… However, right now…… It’s just the two of us, so you can fawn on me.]

[ ! ? ]

Saying this, Kuro gently holds my head and holds it in her embrace.

It feels warm…… The small, but I could definitely feel the bulges touching my face, softly wrapping me with her warmth.

[If you get tired, I’ll take it all in…… That’s why, if it’s just the two of us, you can fawn on me…… Alright?]

[……Errr, i- is that alright?]

[Of course…… Ah, but in return, I’m going to fawn on Kaito-san to the fullest, okay?]

[Ahaha…… Unnn. Thanks…… Then, I’ll take you up on your words……]

Hearing her gentle and happy words, I gently reach out and hug Kuro’s little body.

I wonder what is this? Perhaps, I’ve been accumulating it without realizing…… but when I hold her in my arms and feel Kuro on my chest, I feel so happy. I really want to do this forever.

Just as I felt this happiness, I moved my face a little, and meeting eyes with Kuro’s beautiful golden eyes, as if they were drawn to each other, we put our lips on each others.

[……Kaito-kun, today…… I will always be here with you. So you can fawn on me a lot, okay?]

[……Unnn.]

[Let’s do lots of hugs and kisses, okay? I’m…… yours after all, Kaito-kun.]

[……Kuro.]

I feel too happy…… Saying those words once more, feeling the overflowing happiness from Kuro’s affection from the words she said as if it was obvious, I hugged Kuro’s body even tighter.

Dear Mom, Dad——- How should I say this… Whenever I’m with Kuro, I really feel at peace. Was it because of her very gentle affection? As if I’m being wrapped by her tenderness, I received her sweet, charming love…… I’m embarrassed to say it, but on that day——- I fawned on Kuro to the fullest.

I also want to be pampered to the point of bewitchment by a comprehending little girl……

Serious-senpai: [……Didn’t you say…… that Kuromueina’s arc is over!!!?]

Serious-senpai: [Ahh…… Aaahhhh…… Uwwaaaahhhhhhhh……]
