Night of the 24th day of the heavenly moon. On Christmas Eve, I was coming to a place full of demons.

I currently have a fuzzy coat in red and white and a clo in a Santa hat, not my usual black clothes, which is very cute.

The red trousers are also very poignant and I personally prefer to dress quite well.

It's just a personal opinion, but I can say that I prefer pants to skirts if I'm going to do Santa Claus cosplay.

In that regard Clo's outfit is a slightly larger coat at the top and red half pants at the bottom...... pants hidden in the coat and the beautiful feet peeking slightly seem to represent her activeness, just watching makes her happy.

Well, if that's the case, why am I being called here?

"... then kite kun. We're launching a Christmas Secret Mission!

"... yeah?

Whoa, it's been a while, but I'm starting to say things I don't understand... Christmas Secret Mission? It's long and hard to say, but I know you're going to do something.

"Hehe, this mission..."

"Oh, before that, Cro... you look great in that outfit, it's cute"

"Huh? Really? Uh, thank you."

I am almost certain that I will be swinging by the clo already, so I will give up on that quickly. And I don't know what's going to happen, so I shared my thoughts with him trying to give him a proper compliment within the moment.

Crowe listens to me and laughs happily and then coughs to get back on his mind.

"... Kohon. Well then, this mission...... the content is simple. Join me in my house and move to the cafeteria so no one will notice... so we can secure the subject and come back so no one will notice!

"... why such a hassle..."

"Hehe, I know. You have a Christmas masterpiece fight and sneak in! Let's do that!!

……

As you might expect, they've bought weird knowledge from some strange place again.

Fight the Christmas masterpiece...... is it some kind of movie? You mean sneaking in, not talking about Santa Claus or something?

Well, this is the usual extent, and I decided to solve the misunderstanding later, and now I'm going to hang out with Crowe's play.

Well, I feel strange at the point of sneaking into my own house in the first place, but it seems irrelevant to Cro, walking between walls in a wide hallway in Norinoli. Seems more fun than anything else.

"... but aren't we going to find out this soon?

"It's all right, I'm using sound proofing magic to inhibit perception and block signs... you won't know until you're pretty close."

"... but this passage... there's no place to hide when people come..."

"... ah"

He still had his thoughts ahead of him, and he didn't seem to think about that kind of one-shot game over.

Well, it's just a play in the first place, so I don't even need to think that deep...

"Yes, I'm fine. Sure, there's a room for everyone around here... but we're all getting ready for a Christmas party today..."

……

I'm sure now. This is the one where the flag builds... here definitely someone comes.

I hear a slight footsteps in the quiet hallway to affirm my predictions like that and someone else.

"Aww, dude, what am I gonna do!? Somebody's coming!?

"... as expected, or somethin '... cr? What the hell?

"Kid, it's an emergency... sorry!

That's what I told him. Cro was nearby. Door...... hands on someone's room door.

Then the key opens with the sound of chatter, and Kro pulls my hand and jumps inside that room.

"... hey, Cro?

"... what? Kite?"

"As a promise of this hand, isn't this... a pattern of people coming to this room?

"... Maasa ~"

Such an uneasy hunch can be centered again, and the footsteps stop in front of our room and we hear the sound of putting a key in the keyhole.

"Huh!? Kite!"

"Huh? Wow!?

I heard that sound. Cro moves instantly, holds me in a quick move, jumps into the closet that was nearby... why does it make things worse one after the other... not a pattern where I can't get out of here?

With that in mind, asking what was going on in the room from the closet gap with Crowe, the door opened... Ahat and Eva come in. Apparently, this is a room for two.

We must have made a pretty loud noise before we got into the closet, but they don't even know if the soundproofing magic works there.

"... hold on, where the hell did Master Chrome go?

"Aren't you at Kate's? I can't think of any other reason why Master Chrome should run away from the party."

Whoa, I hear some weird words again, huh? Anything, it seems the owner of this castle escaped the Christmas party...

"... ooh. Cro?"

"... eh"

"No, no, not... what are you doing!?

"'Cause I decided to spend Christmas with Kate... and then I told her I was throwing a big party or something... and I was getting ready..."

... I was wondering why you sneak in so everyone wouldn't notice, and it seems that this Pluto came out of the party in the first place.

But then why did you come back to where you escaped once?

"Hey, Cro? I didn't ask you for details, but what are you trying to pick up?

"... new baby castella, forgot to bring it..."

"... no, that's all right now, isn't it?

"Yeah, 'cause it's the' fried chicken flavor 'I made for today, right?

"Yeah, let's not go get it"

"... Huh?

I don't care what you think... and it's about chrome, so you're holding it for nothing, and there's real fried chicken meat inside, right? Yeah, I'll never eat it.

If we get out of here after Ahat and Eva are gone...

"Eh, already, kind of ahat, suddenly..."

"No, look, I've been busy lately and I've been busy...

"" Huh!?!?

Hey, look, how far do I care if a promise occurs? Too much tempering already...

Hearing the glossy voice I heard, I looked out of the closet gap reflectively...... I saw Ahat and Eva hugging each other and kissing each other perfectly.

"Aww, dude, what am I gonna do!?

"... this, doesn't it taste bad? Obviously this atmosphere, no more..."

"Or, Kite, don't look!

"Huh!? Hey, Cro!? If it moves in such a narrow place, whoops!?

Ahat and Eva who feel like they are kissing each other and boosting the mood...... Moving to hold my eyes as Crowe panicked the moment I thought it was unsavory to watch it like this.

But this place was in a narrow closet, and until earlier it was quite physically tight... so the clo moved, so our bodies snuggled in as if slipping into a gap with a sultry... a soft feeling touched my hand.

"Hih!? Or, kite!?

"Oh, uh, this is the..."

... I currently have an adorable Santa cosplay girlfriend in front of me, and my hand touches her chest.

It's dim and doesn't look clear, but Crowe dyes her cheeks red and she's so cute she can't help it.

... this is that one. Isn't it something called a meal? Yes, no, look, I can't leave until the Ahats are gone anyway...

"Uh-huh, kay, kite kun... uh-huh..."

"... Cro"

"No, you can't... uhh... this is not the place..."

"Sorry, I may not be able to stand it..."

"Yeah!? Ahhh..."

Whenever a hand touching his chest moves slightly, Crowe makes a colorful voice, and this situation is accompanied by a fever that paralyzes his head.

This could really suck...... I can't stop. Hold it down somehow...

"... or be nice... right?

"Huh!?

I wonder why they're chasing us there!? I can't do this anymore... I can't stop...

"Ahat ku! Eva! WHERE ~!! I need a little help ~!"

Just at that time, I hear Mr. Raz, and me and Cro, of course, Ahat and Eva move their bodies in a vicious manner.

Apparently, he wants you to help him get ready for the party, so he's here to get Ahat and Eva.

Ahat and Eva get acquainted in a hurry, leaving the room in reply to Mr. Raz, and at that time me and Kro quickly escape the room and escape outside the castle as well.

"Ahhh, something's happened..."

"Speaking of the original, I also feel it's Kro's fault..."

"Uh-oh, I can't deny it."

Having managed to get out of the castle, Crowe and I exchange words with each other in bitter laughter as we walk through a city stained with Christmas mood.

I wasn't in the mood to go back to the castle to pick up the baby castella again, and Crowe seems to want to be with me rather than at a party, so we decided to keep walking the city.

"... well, shall we do it on a date?

"Yeah!"

With that said, he grips happily at the hand I offered him, and Crowe walks closer to me perfectly.

No, I'm really in a hurry to be with Cro, or I'm always fresh and bored with all sorts of things. But this is also very happy and fun again.

"... Oh yeah! Kite."

"Yeah?"

Feeling the happiness of being with Clo, Fukuro raised his voice like he had come up with something, and then he stretched his back and slapped me in the ear while dyeing his cheeks a little bit.

"... the... the rest of the earlier... after the date..."

"... Oh, yeah"

"Then let's go!!

"Huh? Hey, Cro, don't pull too much..."

Sweet lover walking with a bright smile like the sun, pulling my hand, like a blindfold.

Realizing the happiness of having Christmas together in this way, and at the same time, feeling anticipation for the future ahead, I slowly continued to walk with Cro through the city of Christmas.

"... by the way, Cro. The situation just now... wouldn't it have been easier to get out with metastatic magic?

"... ah"
