Kuro no Maou

"-But you look better than I thought, that's good."

"Ugh... yes..."

On the bed, for some reason Nell answers shyly leaning down.

Dozens of minutes after the rain hit me, I managed to get invited safely into Nell's room, wiped my wet body with a towel, and cut off a difficult topic like "How are you feeling?" first.

Most of all, based on Nell's rush to prepare, I was sure he wasn't so debilitated that he couldn't get out of bed.

Still, if she actually faces it and says, "It's okay," with a flamboyant smile from herself, the peace of mind is different.

"You don't look so pale."

"Ha... Oh, don't look too..."

Is it still embarrassing to be stared at in the face that can lie ill, covering my face with both hands so as to block my gaze, while at the same time the white wings also run to cover my bass and upper body. What a lovely iron wall defense.

"Yes, eat this if you like."

That's how I want to take it out of the shadows is a small handheld paper bag with a smiling woman logo on it. This is Will's special treat.

"Oh, could that be a 'Sweet Smile' pudding!?

"Oh, 'cause I heard you liked that."

Though "read" to be exact. That letter really showed off Will's intelligence.

"Yes, I love this! Thank you, Chrono-kun!

Nell smiles with a full face, and nay, even slightly tears appear in the floating eyes of his thin neighborhood, a great joy. No, if you'd be happy to get this far, it would have been worth the effort to buy it.

It was also surprising that pudding was normally sold as a namesake for runes, but it was also surprising to see the length of a row of female customers lined up in such confectionery stores as its' Sweet Smile '.

He is a black nightmare madman (Nightmare Berserker) crossing such a queue of young maidens. No, really, I struggled. Mentally.

The most surprising thing was the superb price of one thousand and five hundred clans for a small cup size though. The boulder only has a store in the upper compartment, pricing is also upper class.

"Um, can I eat... okay?

Of course, go ahead. Answer quickly, but on a good note, I think that the sugar content is very ok at night like this. Well, let's just say it's no problem.

"Right, I'll make you some tea, too. Does Chrono-kun have a favorite brand or something?

"No, no, don't push it."

Do you have an extraordinary passion for making your favorite pudding delicious, Nico, smile and stop Nell from trying to sneak out of bed?

When you come to pay your respects, moving the sick to entertain themselves is the end of the line.

At the end of the day, I don't know anything about tea brands in other worlds. I'm only prepared to make anything delicious.

"No, because I'm really fine. You're not bad anywhere, and you can go on a quest right now."

The way she smiled so gently, there was nothing I could do about it, it belonged to Nell I knew. Sure, his complexion is slightly blue-white, but a sign of energy, vitality and jerking off like when he made up his mind to head from the infirmary of the Great Arena (Grand Coliseum) to the ancient castle of Ischia for rescue.

In short, it's unlikely to be stopped.

"Oh, me, the food hasn't improved much yet, but the tea can be made properly and deliciously!

I guess tea is something like royal aristocracy's preference. The basics make the squire do it, but it is not uncommon for a master to behave himself if he is a reciprocal opponent, such as when he talks to a foreign nobleman, when a close friend visits him, etc. Something like one of the courtesies and techniques required for interaction in the upper class.

If you're the princess Nell, you must be taught quite harshly.

"Okay, then we'll have a treat."

I don't have any particular requests, so I'll take care of them all. If you're in good health, you'll still be fine.

That's how you wait a few minutes looking inside a beautifully tidy room or talking to Nell and Pompous about preparing your tea.

"Enjoy, please"

A tea set was prepared on a small round table set up in front of me.

The candied tea, which emits an elegant aroma along with hot air, is also called black tea in this world. I don't know if the tea leaves and the method are the same, but the flavors and aromas look the same, along with options such as milk, lemon and sugar.

Cute floral pots and cups with matching designs poured with tea, the saucer that underlies them. Sugars and muddlers are arranged in sets beside each other.

Quite handy. It seems true that Charlotte and Saphir often have tea parties with their female members.

A noble girl to the royal family, but this way pulling a cushion to the floor and sitting around the table makes me think it's all like a schoolgirl. Well, if you think there's that Saphir in that face, it's slightly complicated.

He has a strong image of an experimental sanskrit with an evil grin, pulled to the workshop of a corpse psychic (Necromancie) surrounded by a sanskrit. I can wonder at the certainty that it is not a hassle, although it is a truly discretionary imagination.

"Thank you, I'll have it"

She stares at the scene where I drink tea with great sparkling eyes. It's just a little awkward, but she tries to look calm. Don't be too disappointed, I'll take a sip softly.

"... delicious"

"Good, fit your mouth"

Nell says smudged with a soft smile so that his heartfelt joy can soak up.

It did taste flattering and delicious, but I don't know why, it made me a little, no, pretty excited right now.

Oh, calm down, I never wanted to be praised by the man of my heart, but I was rewarded for my hard work, and Nell doesn't have healthy feelings about a maiden in love like that. I'm just saying I'm happy as a friend, I have no other intentions.

But it is the horrible thing about Nell that when he is given this too innocent look, he is seriously going to get it wrong.

"By the way, why do you even have my share of pudding?

As a distraction, I try to change the subject. Even if not, I was curious when the pudding with the 'Sweet Smile' logo prepared next to the tea came into view, as a matter of course.

There's only one pudding I bought. No, I never cheated, it was simply sold out with it.

"That was in the fridge (cooler) at some point. I think someone came to see me and brought it to me."

"Can I eat it?

"Yes, it's better if we eat together, because it's delicious"

Damn, I'm shallow and disgusted that I would naturally think of singling out pudding that costs as much as a thousand and five hundred clans. Nell is a merciful princess after all. By contrast, I am a slightly impoverished little citizen even when I become a Rank 5 Adventurer.

"Oh, my share of eating was brought to me by Chrono-kun."

To Nell, who laughs like a kid with Couscous, I couldn't think of the right words to give back. In the meantime, let me apologize in my heart to anyone who thinks Nell has bought me a pudding. Sorry, I'll take this expensive pudding.

"Well, I'll have it"

"Yes, me too, I'll have it"

The boulders were only expensive and the pudding was delicious. It's not what I handcrafted based on a recipe I can't remember. I guess the Earl of the Red Wing, Seiichi Akaba, told him how to make pudding, and then went through his own evolution in the rune. At least it was a pudding I had never tasted in Japan.

Stinging about that, a tall looking spoon carved with the white feather relief I use got the bottom of the cup. I don't have any more. I thought the content was small.

If you look, the spoon of red lightning relief Nell has in his hands was similarly shrugging the cup void.

"Shh, sorry, I was a little hungry..."

I was eating quite a bit of guts. I finished eating at the same rate as I did, and you gave me an excuse not to even ask me if I was ashamed as a maiden, with Mojimoji and some really nasty tricks. Damn, Nell looks cute about 30% more than usual...... heartbreak.

That's how I enjoyed my evening snack time with Nell. Like that time we spent together every day before we went to the ancient castle of Ischia, the story plays with nature.

I wonder if Nell was bored and extra spending all his time in bed, and he talked a lot from her all the time.

Childhood memorabilia, the first time I met Will, the emotions that gave me protection, the failures in my first quest. Or other non-loving topics such as my favorite desserts or my favorite restaurants, good subjects, bad classes, etc.

In that, I remind myself of something important.

"- Speaking of which, I forgot to thank you"

"Thank you, sir?

Nell asks, naturally making the trick only allowed to the beautiful girl that she leans her little neck. Is it also natural that there is no verse that comes to mind, because it has been greatly misaligned from the timing to be said?

"It was thanks to Nell that I was able to save Ischia. Thanks for your help."

"Oh, no... I just... did what I deserved, so..."

Now, rather than this, Nell gives me the surprise look that I didn't expect to be thanked for this. Indeed, it could have been a natural course of action in view of her gentle heart and her high strength.

Still, I wanted to tell you properly.

"No, the amulet Nell gave me, if it hadn't been for The White Wings of Heart Guard (Aria Guardfeather), I would have been parasitized (parasitic) by Slowsgill"

Speaking of which, does Nell know about a parasitic monster named Throwsgill who was manipulating Griedgore?

In the meantime, I explained lightly and thereby forcefully how dangerous I was, overlapping and thanking you.

"Thank you so much. Nell is a benefactor of life. If I was alone, I couldn't save anyone. No, because the Curse Gladiator Games (Curse Carnival) didn't end well in the first place. If Nell hadn't helped me, I couldn't have done anything..."

"Hehe... Ugh, that's okay, Chrono-kun. You don't have to try to do anything perfectly on your own."

Nell told me that the real goddess smiled with such a gentle smile.

No, it's not just words. Nell, who rides himself out over a small table, takes my hand and gently wraps it around with both hands. It is a real Virgin position, reaching out to troubled lambs.

"My people depend on each other, don't they? So you can rely more, Chrono-kun. I want to help you, too, Chrono-kun."

I'm Lily and Fiona, and now Nell thinks he's a sincerely trustworthy companion... but I wonder if that means he's carrying too much on his own.

Sweetness and reliance are separate things. I mean, I know that. But maybe that line draw is terribly vague.

"If you say so, you'll be saved."

"Me too, Krono-kun told me that... I was saved"

Nell's hands, holding my hand, get just a little tight. A delicate white finger intertwines warmly. Is it just me being impure that makes me a little thrilled?

No, if Nell's bright blue eyes could stare at him this way, there wouldn't be an unconscious man or anything. I'm not bad. Not bad... but patience will be necessary.

I concluded that I was a little crappy any more and tried to flirt with my hands subtly, but the intent seemed to be completely untransmitted. Nell's hands keep gently restraining my right hand.

"Chrono-kun......"

Because of my mind, I slipped away from Nell's gaze, which seemed slightly hot and moist, to escape, at that time.

"- Princess Nell?

A warrior runs into the voice of a girl who was heard with a knock called Conn. The warm air is instantly foggy, wrapped up in the room until now. The hand I shook also broke away at this moment.

Who. No, whoever it is, not good. It's not good.

I guess Nell understands the situation, too, ha. Open your eyes and look stunned. Perhaps I look the same surprise.

'Cause you will. I'm not supposed to be in this girls' dorm, much less in a princess's room where I can lie sick.

It's not good to be witnessed tentacle-climbing trying to break into the room from now on, but it's worse to actually be seen inside the room. Arrest of the current offender. The department won't even hear the excuse.

"Looks like you're off...... you're coming in, right?

If you're on holiday, don't come in! and scream in my heart, but that can't even make her across the door give up breaking in.

Damn, if this happens, I'm gonna break through the window, but I'm gonna run away - when I get up quick.

"Chrono-kun, hide over here!

Nell shows off his trick of screaming in a whisper. The hiding place she shows is the bed.

Yes, Nell is wearing a futon in bed, and he's begging me to hide myself here.

Ko, this... I feel like it's going to be more irrevocable to find it in the same bed than just to find it in the room.

If you just find it, execute it, if you find it in bed, it's going to be an execution after being tortured.

But breaking through the window and fleeing is also a problem, and it's never the best idea. At the end of the day, I don't see any other place I could possibly hide. Damn, if I were Lily Size, I could hide in that closet!

Even while I'm thinking about it like that, the sound of a girl trying to get into the room for some reason starts chattering and unlocking. Shit, I don't have time to worry anymore.

"Chrono-kun, come on!

"Come on!"

Never, I jumped into bed, not in the window. With a glimmer of hope that you won't find anything.

"Wow... Wow, ah... Krono-kun..."

"Sorry, Nell, just a little, just be patient"

When I dived into the futon, I felt like I was embracing nature. Of course, I won't give you my head. I won't let it out, but my face is hitting Nell's chest because of it. No, it's not easy to hit, you can call it oppression.

Twin hills pushing up pure white negligee hugely envelop my face. Softness, warmth, smell, and just a little breathlessness. The heartbeat that was hitting the early bell in this emergency starts carving the beat even faster.

I don't want to leave, but I want to leave. I can't stay away from you more than I did. Nell holds me firmly in his chest and won't let me go. I'm going crazy.

"Excuse me, sir."

She finally stepped into the room, approaching the extremes of tension and the collapse of reason. I kill my breath desperately, erase the signs, and just wholeheartedly pray that this threat leaves. Oh, something, don't remember when Sariel was chasing me when I was escaping the lab...

"Well, the lights are on! Besides, the tea stays the same... the last tourist is a very rude person."

Perhaps she is a student living in the same girls' dorm, taking care of Nell, who is in a quiet state. It must be time to go to bed in the dorm, to see how things are going at the end.

But when I saw what was going on in the room, I heard a voice that seemed obviously grumpy, and I remembered, the owner of this voice must be a girl like Helen, who had plucked me with a prebuilt lynch called Duel.

I see, Princess Nell, if she is the SS captain and the child of some great nobleman, there is no shortage to bake the care of the princess. Instead, I would go from that worship and do what I want myself.

Most of all, it is now tormented by its loyalty. I've sporadically frightened you in the arena unintentionally, but damn it, Helen, you're really taking a chance to kill me right now...

"... get out"

"Princess Nell!? Are you awake?"

Nell starts an add-on act to get through this predicament. The grumpy, or on the contrary even hateful, voice made me feel thrilled in a bad way, even though I knew it was.

"Come on, come on."

"also, sorry...... excuse me......"

More than the beloved Lord, following a heartfelt rejection, Helen left open words of sad apology and dispersed.

I've never been so calm in my mind when I heard the door close, the sound of being locked again.

Dozens of seconds after the silence came to the room that way.

"... Nell, are you okay now?

"Ugh... Chrono-kun, Chrono-kun..."

Come on now, you better get away. I called out thinking it would be okay to get out of bed, but Nell's restraint won't loosen up. Am I too nervous, confused?

"Hey, let go of me already -"

"Phew!

"Oh, relax, Nell, it's okay, it's okay now."

I gently took off my embrace and, unfortunately, what an unclean thought, I took it off the bed, nagging Nell, who looked strangely excited.

It finally makes me feel alive. At the same time, away from Nell's charmingly past body, he recognises the embarrassment of an extraordinary situation to the last minute.

"Oh, um... Chrono-kun, I..."

Nell with a brilliantly bright red stained face with tension and shame. It was so embarrassing to me right now that I couldn't look directly at it. Even if I don't like it, it makes me aware.

My face is hot myself, but I say it with a deviant gaze.

"Thank you, Nell. You managed to mislead me."

"Yes...... yes, right"

To be honest, this really helped. Because I was the first to abandon that choice because of the preconceived notion that there was no way I'd find you two hiding in bed.

"I didn't know Nell's wings would help in this way"

Yes, the secret that deceived Helen is in her wings. The trick is simple and lucid. When Nell sleeps down, naturally those big wings come up. Even if it is folded, it can naturally create quite an area and volume, and a space that shelters about one human being if you move it a little.

By pushing up the futon subtly with his wings, he was trying to make it uncomfortable for me to lurk.

"I'm glad to help you, Chrono-kun."

At the edge of his sight, he captures Nell mozzling with both hands covering his face with just Ka. Am I still unable to think very normally due to nervousness, an atmosphere that doesn't make me excited and cold?

But now that I've survived the crisis, I think. When I dived into bed, I thought if I let my body sink into shadow space (shadowgate), I wouldn't have had to hit such a bump. Yes, like when I was lurking in that apple crate on a ship bound for Pandora continent.

Totally a later festival, but things still worked out safely, so let's just let it go.

"I'm sorry, I've been staying for a long time. It's dangerous to have me here, and I'm leaving now."

"Ah... well, right... ok"

To Nell, who speaks visibly discouraged, then I guess I'll just say a little more, what I'd like to say, but no matter how much anything goes through that crisis, there's no way I can offer that.

"Nell looks fine, and at that rate, he's going to be able to get back to school soon"

"... ah! is, yes, yes, right! It's okay, me, because I can go back to school fine tomorrow!

"Well, that's good. Now we can meet again anytime, whether it's lunch break or after school."

"Yes, I... Chrono-kun and I will always be together, it is..."

Poe, there's another twisted emotion springing up on Nell, who turns a much hotter gaze. No, I can't help but be anxious that if I don't disperse as soon as possible, I'll do something.

I remember when I made up my mind to head to the window and again to jump into the darkness on a thunderous night.

"Yes, Nell, next time, why don't you teach me some magic?

I was reminded of the results of the cover-up experiment the other day.

He said that using "Demon King of Steel (Overgear)" and "Demon King of Thunder (Overaccelerator)" required an accurate understanding of the "Defense Enhancement (Protec Boost)" and "Concentration Enhancement (Conces Boost)" rituals, respectively.

Based on Arm Strength (Forth Boost), the Demon King of Fire (Overdrive), with a clear surgical image, had stable activation and effect times and less recoil than the two.

The immediate special training of the Demon King (Mia) made the second and third protection possible even without a surgical image, but only with a bump production, sensory activation.

However, if it is too volatile and draining by then, I remain greatly anxious to use it in action. Well, if you're going to deal with the apostle, you're going to lose it.

I need to find my next blessing, and I need to train to use my mastered blessings.

Well, that's what people (Nell) ask for, which is a pitiful story.

"Yes, of course! Ah... but Mr. Krono's party members have more... witches, right?

The pleasant reply turns, and Nell clouds his expression visibly.

Well, certainly from the side, I can't deny the slightly naughty feeling of teaching without magically good members. She is a carefree princess at all and everywhere.

"No, I really have to be Nell"

"What... I... I'm the only one special, what is it?

"Oh, I can only ask Nell. No one else can do that."

Yes, I can be taught modern magic (model) correctly, in addition to being good at teaching, I can teach direct mental instruction by telepathy, leave Nell alone and there's nothing else.

If I take that great personal class anymore, I'm very unwilling to listen to Fiona's indecipherable sensibility class. Lily, who can only use unique magic (extras), is out of the question.

"Yes, yes! Thanks Chrono-kun, me, I'll do my best!

If you want to thank me, it's mine. But as a mottled nell for the sake of the world, he's happy to take it on even if it helps me. I guess I'm sincerely happy because my back wings are busily moving with my patties.

"Thanks, I'll see you tomorrow, off"

"Yes, good night, Chrono-kun"

That's how I left Nell's room. Quickly leave the girls' dorm, just like it was when it came.

On my way back to the dorm with the heavy rain again, I noticed.

"Speaking of which, Nell was normally fine, why have you stayed asleep until now..."

I don't care if I don't come to see you, if that's how it goes, I'll have been going to school fine tomorrow. Like Will said, it didn't feel like I was coming up with something mentally.

The Ischia battle was hard, and did the boulder Nell want to take a little cheat break and dazzle?

"Well, I don't care if you're well"

In conclusion, I went back to the dorm in a good mood where one of my anxieties was resolved.
