Whether it's due to a hot spring or another cause, sit in a stripper's bench with a lit body and exhale deeply.

The air through the gap in my yukata slowly cools my hot body, which is kind of comfortable.

But, well, really... it was a long and painful fight. I don't know how many times I've tried to give up... but I've accomplished it. I got over it.

Not Alice, but the bath is going to be traumatic. Why do I have an edge on happenings in the bath...... I miss thinking there's no luck sketching when I just came to this world.

Blurring with that in mind, a bottle of milk was offered in front of me.

"Mr. Kite, how about cold milk?

"... thanks. What about the Clos?

"Oh, it's like 'fireworks' for everything, and I moved to say I'd be ready first. I'm in charge of picking up Mr. Kite."

"... well... oh, yummy"

"I knew it would be good for a bath."

Apparently, Crowe and Isis are getting tense about the fact that we're all staying, so they headed out to get fireworks ready.

Alice, who picked me up, is wearing her usual mask on her yukata, which makes her look somewhat unbalanced.

Alice took the same milk as mine out of nowhere and sat right next to me instead of picking her up.

"... pu ha ~. Well, the young kite looks tired, let's take a breath before we go"

"Right. I do feel like taking a breather."

Sometimes I guess it means taking a bath, but somehow it's a shimmer, or calm air flows.

Alice drank milk without saying anything more, and after a while, she groaned potpourrily.

"... Mr. Kite. There's one thing I don't know, can I ask you something?

"Yeah? It's unusual that Alice doesn't understand something."

"Then there's something I don't even know. Deep down in people's minds... you can't peek unless you want to peek."

"If you want to, you can peek..."

"haha"

"... so?

"Oh, no, it's not a big deal."

After a forethought, Alice turns her gaze toward me and slowly spins her words.

"... Mr. Kate, why 'put up' with it?

"To? What?

"No, well, it's about that kind of act. Mr. Crowe and I told ourselves we wanted you to wait for a while, and I know that Mr. Isis is pure, so it's hard to step back in. I'm not even your lover."

"... yeah"

"... even with regard to the Duke of Lilia, that's understandable because it's that personality... what about Mr. Sieg?

I can understand what Alice wants to hear. I wonder why I haven't had a physical relationship with anyone yet.

"No, well, there's going to be some mind prep for Mr. Kite on that, and I'm not going to complain or anything... simply, I wonder why."

"... why,..."

"Well, it's not even about hiding it, I say... but I also know that Mr. Kite sometimes sneaks up on himself to handle it. Yeah, of course, if that's the case, we're moving to an invisible position."

"... Really, I don't know... Where's my privacy..."

It was originally the subject of reddish things, and I might have held my head... but the serious atmosphere of Alice right now doesn't make me do that.

Alice doesn't want to make fun of me at all, it's just a question of pure interest.

"... well, so, right. I'm sorry to put it this way, Mr. Sieg, but aren't you just right on condition? If you personally ask for it, Mr. Kite will accept it, and at his age 38... he hasn't made you virgin in tens of thousands of years like me."

"... mmm"

"I live under one roof and have a lot of conversations with pet care and stuff. Unlike Mr. Crowe and Mr. Isis, the Elves also have proper libido stemming from the preservation of their species."

……

Well, if you do say so, Mr. Sieg, you may say that the conditions are perfectly in place. In fact, Mr. Sieg feels like a sweet older woman, and even in that sense, he's a lover I could have wasted.

Still, is that why you haven't got your hands on it...

"... oh, no, not if it's hard to answer..."

"Alice knows, doesn't she? After I went back to my old world, I thought I'd come back to my old world."

"Yeah, I heard directly from Mr. Kite."

"... yeah. The purpose of going home is simple. I want to say goodbye to the people I took care of in the original world. That's all... but that's really important to me. For the first time in my life, I think I can say," I'm going to live in this world. "

"... he's a jerk. Until that's over... do you feel?

"... oh"

... Sorry, Alice. I just lied.

No, lying may be different... my uncle or aunt who took me and raised me is an irreplaceable benefactor to me.

I mean it when I say that I want to have a proper separation in my heart before I have a deeper relationship with the Cros.

But there's a part of me that I haven't spoken to intentionally. The most anxiety element I have right now...

I haven't told anyone yet. Words previously spoken by Mr. Shiro during his visit to the divine world. Mr. Ciro likened himself to being 'Las Bosses' in one of my stories. And when you give me one last trial... I told you to try and beat yourself, that's what I said.

There was only one part of me that felt uncomfortable, in the words of Mr. Shiro back then.

Mr. Shiro said if I couldn't get past the trials, the only option I could choose was to stay or go back, just like the rest of the world......

Regarding that, it wouldn't be a lie...... but 'is that really all'?

I think the last test, from the statement that you should try to win, could be a battle between me and Mr. Shiro.

All I ask is for you to come back to this world once you get back to the original world... an act that has no past precedent.

If that's what you call a battle... what's 'what I lose' if I lose?

Too much thought, maybe it is. No, rather, Mr. Shiro would most likely really simply impose a trial and not ask me for consideration.

But I'm really curious. At that time, Shiro told me, "Show me my worth," and the challenging look... and the phrase, "If you want a lot, be prepared for it"...

If I hadn't reached the standard of value that Mr. Shiro sought, what would Mr. Shiro do with me then?

I don't know, and from what I've heard, I'm sure Mr. Shiro won't answer.

Well, it's really possible that I think too much...

"Well, the clos shouldn't get tired of waiting, shall we move?"

"... right"

Right now, I'm not going to tell anyone about this yet. It's just an intuition, but I think the test Mr. Shiro is giving me... 'Nanica I have to get over it myself'...

When I got up from my bench and tried to start walking alongside Alice, Alice pulled my sleeve.

"... Alice?

"Mr. Kate, look, I'm gonna wait till you have the courage. Didn't I tell you..."

"Yeah."

"Me, look, I'm making the virgin persuade... it's still going to take a little while, isn't it? But I think..." By the time Mr. Kite gets back into this world, he'll have the courage. "

……

"... so, uh... when Mr. Kate says a firm goodbye in the original world and returns here... then, please take me there." A Romantic Seaside Cottage "... that's a promise, right?

"... oh, I promise"

Dear Mother, Father - as they often say, I seem to be a bad liar. So I'm sure... Alice is aware. Neither that I'm hiding anything, nor that Sole is the easy part... after I guessed it, she told me she was waiting. I don't know, yeah - I fell back in love.
