Vol 3 Chapter 64

Chapter 64

The plot cont-ELBOWBLOCK!

Sicily woke up with the sun radiantly s.h.i.+ning through the window.

She tried to remember how she had fallen asleep the day before.

Then, she looked to her side… and found s.h.i.+n sleeping right next to her.

“Wa-? What!? s.h.i.+n!? Wa-? Why?”(Sicily)

Sicily was immediately confused as to why s.h.i.+n was sleeping by her side.

At that moment, she suddenly remembered the events that took place last night.

Last night, s.h.i.+n was unjustly criticized, and she inadvertantly got so agitated that she had cried.

After her outburst, s.h.i.+n comforted her and lulled her to sleep.

She looked at her hand that was grasping s.h.i.+n’s clothes.

Her grip on his clothes was so tight that she didn’t even release him overnight.

“Wa-wa-wa-what should I do!?”(Sicily)

She had to think of what to do in this awkward situation.

Then, she saw s.h.i.+n’s sleeping face for the first time.

The most reliable and loving man in the world who would give up his whole body and soul to protect her from harm.

That same man showed such a defenseless sleeping face by her side.

Sicily was unintentionally drawn in by s.h.i.+n’s sleeping face.

While she was admiring his cute face, s.h.i.+n eventually opened his eyes.

“Err… Uh… What? Sicily?”(s.h.i.+n)

When I opened my eyes, Sicily was staring at me lovingly from across the bed.

Why am I here… Oh right, I had to sleep here because Sicily grabbed my clothes and wouldn’t let go.

“…Good morning, Sicily.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Ah, Good morning. Err… I’m sorry… for grabbing you clothes… You couldn’t return to your room, right?”(Sicily)

Sicily was still grasping my clothes with her hand. (Kaelpie: Man his clothes must be so creased.)

…You woke up and grasped them again?

“No… I could’ve gone back if I just took off my clothes…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Oh, that’s true. Then why did you sleep next to me?”(Sicily)

“Last night… I didn’t want to leave Sicily alone…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Muuu…”(Sicily)

“You got angry for my sake and cried and cried until you fell asleep… How could I leave such a sweet girl by herself… There is no way I would do something like leaving you alone.”(s.h.i.+n)

“s.h.i.+n-kun…”(Sicily)

“Sorry, did you hate it?”(s.h.i.+n)

Despite being her fiance, maybe sharing a bed this fast is a little too indecent…

“That’s not it! That’s not it! I was a little surprised, but you slept next to me for my sake, and I could never hate you for such a trivial matter!”(Sicily)

“Sicily…”(s.h.i.+n)

Good. If she told me she hated it, I’d get depressed. (ConformChild: Lmao. Get depressed.)

“Besides… When I woke up and s.h.i.+n was next to me… I was really happy…”(Sicily)

“…Thank you.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Err… I mean…”(Sicily)

She’s so shy…

I fell silent while Sicily was embarra.s.sed. As a result, we just stared at each other quietly on the bed.

At a place like this… She was watching me with teary eyes….

Without saying anything to each other, our faces drew near… and…

“Good Morning, Sicily. Are you… awa…”(Maria)

Maria came into the room to wake up Sicily, I guess.

She was probably concerned about the kidnap

attempt from last night… Even though you’re her childhood friend, you should still knock!

We were face to face on the bed and on the verge of a kiss.

Maria witnessed a situation that I could not explain at all.

“Ah… oh… sorry…”(Maria)

Maria was standing with her mouth open in shock and gently closed the door with a bright red face.

For a moment, we couldn’t comprehend the situation. Then our gears clicked into place…

That was a Red face! A feverish face!

I understand why her face was bright red.

This isn’t good! I have to solve this misunderstanding!

“Wait, Maria! It’s not like that! We weren…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Ah! s.h.i.+n! Don’t!”(Sicily)

Sicily tried to stop me from trying to chase after Maria, but it was already too late.

I opened the door and went outside. (Kaelpie: In times like these you go through the window you idiot!)

“Wait, isn’t that Sicily’s room? Why is s.h.i.+n… Oh, right!”(Alice)

“Walford, you didn’t.”(Rin)

“Oh, Alice? Rin?”(s.h.i.+n)

Why… Everyone is here! It’s the morning and the girls are coming out of their rooms!

“Ah, Walford? Why?… Ah… Haha… uh… Was it fun?”(Alice)

“It’s not like that!”(s.h.i.+n)

Wow! I dug my own grave!

When I returned to Sicily’s room in a panic, Sicily was curled up and covered with sheets.

“Sorry…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Argh! s.h.i.+n! Aargh!”(Sicily)

s.h.i.+n slept over in Sicily’s room…

Everyone knew about it in a flash.

“It’s a misunderstanding…”(s.h.i.+n)

I desperately tried to solve the misunderstanding while taking last night’s intruders to the accommodation of the Ys Holy Country delegation.

“Why? It’s nothing bad. You are both adults and fiancees no less. It’s only natural.”(Tony)

“I know but that’s not it!”(s.h.i.+n)

“I also think there’s nothing wrong with it but… I would like it if you considered the time and place…”(August)

“That’s why I didn’t do it this time!”(s.h.i.+n) (Nyx: “This time”, he says)

It’s nothing unusual for fiancés and there is also the magic tool, so it’s a wonder we didn’t already do it by now.

But I’m not insane enough to do something like that in the lodging where everybody is staying at and during such an important meeting!

“Even if it was unusual,, whatever you did was alright.”(August)

It’s useless… Because of the awareness of our close relations.h.i.+p and because it’s an accepted practice.

Is it… Already too late to disprove it?

“Haha, you’ve finally done it. How do you feel, s.h.i.+n? Does it seem like the world is different?”(Tony)

“That’s right. I felt like that after my first time.”(Mark)

“Different… I can’t say anything changed because nothing happened… Wait… Mark… You…”(s.h.i.+n)

“Ah, d.a.m.n it!”(Mark)

I wanted to believe in him after all but after the previous lack of sleep…

“s.h.i.+n, come with me. Claude as well.”(August)

“Oh? Right.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Yes!”(Sicily)

I didn’t have the chance to interrogate Mark.

Everytime I tried to find out, someone interrupted me. Why do they keep getting in my way?

Sicily came from the girls’ circle.

When she lined up beside me… She Glared at me with a red face and puffed up cheeks.

Wow… So cute…

“You have been barraged by questions from everyone because of s.h.i.+n right?”(August)

“I’m sorry…”(s.h.i.+n)

“I wanted to keep it a secret… Only between the two us…”(Sicily)

“Huh? Ah… Sorry…”(s.h.i.+n)

“…Grr.”(Sicily)

So that’s it… It was supposed to be a secret between the two of us… That wouldn’t be bad… However we were seen by Maria…

“Hey, we’re going to meet the delegation now so don’t flirt.”(August)

“Ahem.”(s.h.i.+n)

“We’re Sorry! We’re sorry!”(Ex-Corpse 3)

That’s right. What these guys said about Sicily last night…

When I remembered, I got angry again.

“I am the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Earlshyde, Augusto von Earlshyde, I have some business with the people of Holy Country Ys, please call someone other than the representative.”(August)

“Your Highness Augusto? Why are you here?”(Swedish Jim)

“I already said that I have some business with Ys. Call in someone who holds a high position in the church however not the representative of the talks.”(August)

“I understand, certainly”(Swedish Jim)

In response to Gus’ order, the Swedes Kingdom guard stationed at the entrance went to call an official of the Holy Country Ys.

Before long, a kind looking middle aged man with the appearance of a child appeared. (Kaelpie: We boku no pico now bois.)

“Your Highness Prince Augusto, what urgent business could you have to come so early in the morning?”(Shota Priest)

He didn’t talk in a calm tone, but one that found fault in an early morning visit without a previous arrangement. (Kaelpie: I mean, can you blame him?)

“First of all, I would like you to take a look at these people.”(August)

Then, he shows him the intruders from last night.

Naturally, the previously mentioned intruder were tied up.

“!? You guys!?”(Shota Priest)

“Bishop…”(Ex-Corpse 2)

“There seems to be no doubt they are people from Holy Country Ys, correct?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Certainly that is the case… However what is this kind of treatment? What could they have done? They are devout followers. Are you aware that depending on your answer, this might turn into a scandal?”(Shota Bishop) (Kaelpie: WHY DOES NOTHING IN THIS NOVEL HAVE A NAME?)

I guess this person is unrelated to it all, but… This stupid way of speaking… Feels really sickening.

“You would make a problem out of it? That’s fine.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Wh-what?”(Shota Bishop)

“Are you aware there is a girl called a saint among the people of Earlshyde?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Of course I’m aware. She ventures out into the battlefield, defeating demons and protecting the people. If anyone is injured she heals them without expecting compensation. She is a woman that embodies the teachings of the Church of Creation.”(Shota Bishop)

That’s quite a grand rumor. Well, it’s not wrong though.

Sicily had a bright red face after hearing that evaluation.

Although I understand… it’s quite embarra.s.sing when people admire you…

“Despite that, they have trespa.s.sed into the lodging of Earlshyde Kingdom and were trying to abduct that very saint.”(s.h.i.+n)

“What! Surely you’re mistaken!?”(Shota Bishop)

“They were caught during the act. We obtained confessions, and there is no doubt.”(s.h.i.+n)

“Why… Why… Why such terrible things…”(Shota Bishop)

“By the way, do you think that will cause a controversy? Trying to kidnap an important person of another country during a meeting where the fate of the world is being decided… What sort of a scandal would that cause?”(s.h.i.+n)
