Kuro no Maou

I woke up to the sound of rain grains slamming windows hard. Blurry eyes open and it's dark, and only the sound of a blowing windstorm and rattling windows echoes inside the room.

Heavy rain at night.

It seems as if it reflected my mind as it was, and maybe I'm still in my dreams.

Dark, unconscious, desperate darkness. Heavy rains in Ischia don't keep falling in me.

It's supposed to be clear. The rain was up and the brilliant seven-colored rainbow was supposed to bless me.

"... Chrono-kun"

The time for the two of us is over. No, it didn't even really start.

Because Krono-kun had a partner from the beginning. There was a girl I liked a lot more than me.

But he's like a demon.

"Knock it off! Ugh..."

I feel nauseous just remembering. Just the look of innocence. Poor, evil smile of that fairy.

I get it, I get it. That kid wants everything about Chrono-kun. Conquer the body, dominate the mind, monopolize existence itself. I won't let anyone touch me, I won't let one finger touch me. Stay away, don't talk, don't stare - you're my thing.

I'm sure I understood such a distorted will in a flash without having to go through it telepathically -

"Chi, no! I'm not, I'm not, I'm, uh, thinking about Chrono-kun the most, so, so..."

So I was supposed to be Krono-kun's best. I had to be.

But the reality is different, Krono-kun cuddles with that kid and that witch... without looking at me...

"Lie, lie, it's all a lie...... no, no, this is so different, no, never, don't want to admit it!

Yes, Chrono-kun needs me. More than anyone else, you need me, and I have to be nearest, beside him.

"I'm being fooled, Krono-kun is being fooled, by the devil's child, I'm just being fooled..."

Yes, yes, Chrono-kun is just being deceived and nothing is wrong. I know that Chrono-kun is very honest and very sweet.

What comes to mind in the back of my brain is the look of Chrono-kun, who always worked so hard. And a grieving emotion crying over the death of a fellow man, glimpsed in memory.

Yes, he is someone who can push forward on his own and never blame anyone and take responsibility for himself.

So they follow me in. Without realizing it's a cunning demon trap.

"Wow, I have to help Krono-kun..."

I'm the only one who can help. If I don't do it, prove the devil. Come on, now, Chrono-kun.

"Ugh... ah..."

But that's where my head and body get stiff. I can't move, I can't move. Limit just to wake your upper body. I can't even get out of bed.

I come to see Krono-kun. The moment you think that, you think of it.

"Oh, I knew you two were the best"

I hold the two of you, and I see him whispering gently.

"Oh, uhh... uhh..."

No, no! I don't want to see it, I don't want to see that place anymore. I can't watch. If Chrono-kun ever sees you being nice to a girl in front of me again...

"No, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't show me that!

Makes me crazy. My mind goes crazy, my heart breaks.

But what really scares me is...

"... like that girl, don't be"

I'm afraid Chrono-kun will tell me to face to face.

"I... but I like it"

If it is so clearly affirmed, it will be over. I'm sure, I'm done.

"Oh, oh... no... Chrono, don't throw it away, don't throw me away, I'm sorry, I'm sorry -"

I'm afraid of being rejected, and I can't see Chrono-kun. I can't have the courage to go see him. Acceptable, not confident.

That's why I can't move. I can't get out of this soft prison (bed) for long.

"I'm sorry...... but I want to see you, Chrono-kun..."

I want to see you. I want to see you right now. I want to see that face, I want to hear your voice. Hold hands gently, smile softly, and chat without other love. Mine, stay with me.

I solicit thoughts. No, this emotion is not mild to be 'thoughts'. This must be, yes - desire.

"I want to see you... I want to see you Chrono..."

A loud thunderbolt echoed as it extinguished the words of nature and desire leaked from his mouth.

The lightning plugged in just before illuminates the dark room for a moment only. That's when I saw my face in the unclosed window of the curtain, and I was zoomed.

Lightning plugging in again. Again, it was the ghost face that showed up before me.

More cloudy blue eyes floating in the bloody eyeball. Beneath the eyes is edged in a dark neighborhood, as added galloping with ink. Despair and fatigue, lack of sleep and cravings, and overloading of the mind and body showed more than enough of that awful sight of sight alone.

The long, glossy dark hair, which I was secretly proud of, is also completely faded, flying in a direction that has no rush and sleeping habits. Skin that was white from the beginning also lost more blood and blue-white, creepy color like a seriously ill person.

The habit, haha and I say in a rough breath, "I want to see you Chrono-kun".

"... disgusting"

Disgusting, creepy. What an ugly woman is here.

"Phew, ugh... I can't see you, you don't..."

I just came to that obvious conclusion, and I can't stop crying about why.

A second thunderbolt shook my tympanic membrane as I felt a large grain of tears fall zero out of my dirty eyes.

The sound of gobbling as it echoes from the bottom of the stomach rings violently to stimulate a person's instinctive fear. But such a roar won't even shake my emotions, which are now bright white in my head.

Still, the third time lightning flashed shortly afterwards, it deflected my attention reflexively. I don't want to see myself ugly. I don't want to think about how unworthy I am of Krono-kun.

That's how I desperately turned away. At the end of my gaze, I saw.

Window shadow on the floor. That there was indeed a shadow in it.

"- Who!?

I looked back at the window with instantly rising fear and anxiety. Someone will be sticking around, to that window.

"Ah... erm, good evening, Nell?

"Uh... Chrono, huh?

Oh, I must be dreaming, dreaming.

I can only see how a man standing by the window on the third floor of this women's dorm, struck by heavy rain, kept thinking about him for a long, long time.

Chrono-kun came to see me. There can't be such a convenient reality.

"... this is Chrono, and now we're going to start infiltrating the girls' dorm dedicated to executive candidates"

Overlooking a large building on three floors that soars across the darkness at night, I accidentally crush that. Is the mood like a secret agent with a special assignment or a lingerie drool with a kinky libido?

Nasty tension engulfs my whole body. I don't know if it's cold sweat or fat sweat, but I feel oddly snug. This must be because of the heavy rain that started falling in the evening. That's the thing, let's keep it.

"I guess this is really good...... Will"

It is not a glimmer of anxiety, but it is nevertheless the only means by which Colle will go to visit you, while at the same time it is the operation of the revival of Nell that Will proposes with absolute confidence.

In the afternoon, after shopping for a certain purpose and gathering less harvested information at Sparda Adventurers Guild headquarters, he sat alone on the bench in the school and secretly opened an envelope entrusted to him by Will.

The note that was in there said, in summary, that this was largely the case.

"If Chrono visits you, he'll definitely be fine, so sneak into the girls' dorm. But don't go! Look on the back for more ways to break in, sir!

It is a wack that On the back there was also detailed information on the scope of surveillance, patrol routes, time, frequency, the entry and exit of female students, including really detailed methods of intrusion. Will, how the hell did you look into this... No, I can't think deep right now.

"All right, there's no sign. If you're going, now."

A steel fence stretched out in front of me, three meters tall or something? This is the fence surrounding the women's dorm grounds, and this place just hits the back. If you get over here and run through the backyard, which is a little garden, you arrive at the beautiful white painted Sparda architectural girls' dorm.

The first gate, the iron fence, is the height that I could jump vertically over, but it makes a lot of noise with stepping in and landing. The means available are limited to one at a time.

"Shadow Tentacle (Anchor Hand)"

Speaking of which, it's been a long time since you've used this without sheep. Where I hold that sentiment, I pass on the tentacles caught on the heavenly side to successfully land in the backyard without sound.

Check left and right with just a glance, then start crossing the garden quickly. Jump across the flower beds so that you don't trample across beautifully mowed plants and all the flowers that receive rain by the grace of heaven.

Arrive safely to the white exterior walls of the dorm. If you match the schematic of the girls' dorm that was in the set in the envelope, this should be just below Nell's room.

It is at a time when much has passed since the sun went down and dinner will be over. The windows are closed with curtains, but only Nell's room remains open. Instead of curtains, they also say it's unlocked.

This trick is really simple. Will himself went out today to pay his last visit, and that's how he set it up.

Technically, Celia came up to Nell's room with a treat from Will.

Even the second prince of Sparda on the boulder doesn't make it that easy to step into a men's forbidden women's dorm. But it is also true that Will is close to Nell and childhood taming. As much as sending a sympathetic item, it is natural.

Well, no one would think this was going to be a trap to get a guy into... No, really, I seriously wouldn't be arranging a nomination from Avalon if I found this out.

"I've come this far, you can't turn back anymore... sorry, Lily, Fiona"

I'm sorry for the two of you worrying about the risk of getting close to the royal family, but I can't leave Nell alone like this, either, as a friend. If they assure me that if I go to visit, I will be fine, even if there is some risk, I will not shudder to execute it, or I will already do it.

All right, let's go, shadow tentacles!

In the mood, he communicates the tentacles that have been extended to the roof and begins to climb the wall. Please don't let anyone find you, and wholeheartedly pray for a wall climb of death in the spiritual sense.

It's the worst weather with Zugarn and flashy thunder on top of the dust and sand, but it's not bitter to climb about the height of the third floor. It doesn't matter if the dressed apprentice robe is lumpily absorbing the rain grains that can be tapped and getting heavier. No, really, the only thing I'm worried about is the presence of witnesses...

That's how I finally reach Nell's room and the window with my unpleasant thrill. I peek softly as I support my whole body with just one left arm holding my tentacles.

I see, there is certainly no curtain on this window. The planting is ready.

But is Nell asleep or is there no light in the room? Um, it's not sneaky to wake up a beating where you're off.

If so, do we have to execute Will's direct plan 2? In short, it is an operation called giving gifts for you softly on the pillow with sympathy and a letter of encouragement.

All right, let's go with this - thunder flashed then. Pretty close, pretty light emitting.

And I had eyes.

It was the blue-white-faced girl who created the neighborhood under her eyes that emerged inside the room illuminated only for a moment.

The daring jumping princess of sleeping habits turned her eyes round like she was so surprised, she was looking at me.

I don't know what to say at times like this. What should I look like?

"Ah... erm, good evening, Nell?

In the end, with a half-way bitter laugh, all I could say was what was easy.

"Uh... Chrono, huh?

Unbelievable, nell with a grim look all the time. Well, if a man shows up out the window in the middle of the night, don't freak out, think commonsense.

No, when it comes to common sense, that's why my actions now are horribly insane.

Wow, consciousness has seriously increased my anxiety. Could it have been me, could it have been Will...

"Oh, oh, I'm here to pay you a visit... something seems annoying, and you should go home -"

"Wait!

Nell's cry blocks the pitiful exit dialogue I told you about being heckled in the earthen pit.

What surprised me was not only the size of her voice, but also her behavior.

Bassa! Bwah! Sta! Such three phonetic sounds were successive aggressive reactions.

The first bassa, is the sound of Nell sitting in bed spreading his back feathers all at once.

The second bwa was the sound of the blanket flying into the corner of the room by the expansion of the feathers.

And when I realized, Nell was standing right in front of me with Sta. It is a tremendous travel speed.

"Wait, please... dream or fantasy, from before me, don't be gone..."

Through the glass window, her squeaky gaze was pointed - I felt like it.

What I see in my eyes is my own face with a slightly dumb look. Behind my back, because the lightning flashed again. The natural flash, which happened quite close, reflected the windowsill like a mirror.

That's why you see my face. I'm sure Nell's looking at his face, too.

Thus, the glass, which returns to transparency after another moment, again reflected the face of the princess, who is several dozen centimeters away.

At the same time I heard a beat late and I noticed that Nell's face was completely different earlier.

I thought he looked a lot more gloomy, but now Nell blushes with embarrassment. What was so shocking, puckering your mouth like a goldfish - reacting as if you noticed a hell of a lot of your own lapse.

"Right, no! I knew it wouldn't work! I can't right now. - No. - Don't look. - Don't look at me with such a terrible face. - Hi-no!

I thought you covered your face with your right hand, Sa. Za. At the next moment, the curtain was pulled with your left hand and shut out. That's how Nell turned me down.

Mission failed. This is Chrono, mission failed, Colonel Will.

That's how I said it, like I gave up.

"Sorry, I knew I was leaving."

"Wait, Chrono-kun! Please, just a moment! Five minutes - no, one minute, no, thirty seconds is fine, so just a moment, please, sincerely!

Since the order of the words you ask for is subtly strange, don't try to push Nell to panic, but yeah, well, for now, wait, it would be OK to accept my sympathy.

"Ooh. You don't have to be in such a hurry. Just calm down and do whatever you have to do."

"Wah, ah, ah - wash your face - what shall we do - toilet - where did we put it - what shall we do in ten seconds -"

From her temporal voice, which sounds intermittent from behind closed windows, I can't believe that she hasn't arrived at my words. What the hell is making her so anxious?

But, well, Nell is a wack of a girl of his age, and I guess he's got a lot to prepare for when it comes to giving someone else a room. Besides, you shouldn't want to look particularly heterosexual, like being a sleepwalking boss with a wake-up call or a defenseless bedtime outfit (negligee). Girls are so familiar that they can't compare to bastards. There's nothing I can say about a man being too concerned.

Anyway, I'm going to wait until Nell invites me "go ahead". In a super suspicious state of being grabbed by tentacles on the third floor of the ground.

Nell, could you put it up quick... because if someone finds me now, I'm gonna die socially for sure...
