"That's good. Nothing. They're lovers."

"Well, yes..."

Even though I know there's no one else but us, I look around at the spacious room.

What a place to hang out with Carol if my people see me......

……

If they see you...... what do you think?

Second, that kind of thought turns my head. Would that cause any inconvenience if, for example, Carol and I were found dating around Iris?

Isn't it amazing at best and enough to take time to explain afterwards?

This is only a reckoning, but Iris shouldn't change anything, even if he tells me I love Carol as a lover.

Rather, I'm even willing to bless you. That's no different in Rosé or Saluena. Because they're good guys.

Laplice, for some reason, feels like we've been getting along lately. At the end of the day, I don't feel like celebrating (...) or (...) or (...).

"... didn't you like it?

When I was thinking about that in pain of a hangover, I turned off my smile until then and Carol said it with a Kyoton face.

"Hmm? Oh, no... not like that..."

"... if you don't like it, I won't do it anymore"

Carol looking straight at me with serious eyes.

This guy's eyes shine golden as he receives the light from the side that shoots in through the window.

The same beauty that I first saw in the woods that day, ten years ago, lives there unchanged.

"... there's no way you don't like it, is there?

I put my hands on Carol's head, between my ears and my ears. It's usually an ear standing pinned, but now it's falling to the left or right.

As much as a tail, this guy's emotions appear in his ears. I am depressed at times like this... or often feel anxious.

"Really?"

"Oh, it's true. Have I ever lied to you?

"Every winter, I hug you to the Atashi, but in summer, you won't even come near me, will you? Even though I said it wasn't to get warm."

……

"In a month's time, we'll be lovers and have our first summer, but will Mr. Toslin hug Mr. Carroll as often (Hindu) as he does in winter?

"... well... you've decided to hug me..."

"... well, I'm not expecting it. Atashi, I'm a mess after the heat."

Carol said that quietly and placed the empty basin on the side chest. He then pinched his soft tail between his crotches and circled his body like a pillow.

"So I think you should hold him while you're at it"

So, Pitto...... and leaning against me. Carol's cheeks are a little red, I'm sure it's not her fault.

"Hey, Carol."

As I turned my hand over Carol's shoulder and held her, the golden eyes that were lying down turned up.

"What?"

A lingering look that is more obnoxious than the Eilees. I pulled my face closer, as if I could be sucked into those eyes.

And I tried to overlay my own that on my light peach lips.

"Hey-hey!!

"Buha!?

But it overlaps a little... that's when Carol pinched a pillow between them.

"Hey... what the hell!!

Though that would have been totally the time for a kiss. I suppressed my hard punched nose and protested in tears.

"You said it was still lunch, right? Toslin doesn't have any maneuvers."

"Ha? Ha!? What are you talking about!! You're gonna want everyone to do that when you come over here blushing and leaning on your body!

"I haven't turned my face red, have I?

"You are! Look in the mirror. Yo!

"I didn't ~. Hey, it's dangerous. If you stick with Toslin, there will be a crisis of chastity even during the day. We need to be careful."

Word is on the back, Carol jumped out of bed, currently bright red in her face in a progressive form.

"Hey, where are you going?"

I'll be right back.

Carol is right, approaching the pochette placed on the couch, would it be a piece of paper from inside (a note?) was removed.

"Yes, this"

And when I came back with it, I sat next to him again and handed it to him.

"What is this?

"Don't you see? It's a letter."

"No, I know about that, but from who?

"From Atashi"

"... what?

I said sarah very naturally, but Carol shouldn't be able to read and write letters. I wonder if he even gave me a proxy around Eilees for a moment.

Hmm? Iris? With that said...... until recently you and Iris were doing something alone, did you get this written?

"I'm telling you, it's not a proxy or anything, is it? Atashi thought about the text, and Atashi wrote it himself."

But Carol denied it ahead of time, as if reading my thoughts like that.

"What, you? But you..."

"Iris taught me. And then Saluena gave me a little study to look at."

"... seriously?

"Seriously. So I'm sorry if there's something hard to read. But I wrote as beautifully as I could."

Good at it, Carol is laughing at Nico. Meanwhile, I... remain flashy.

"What... why the letter..."

Undecorative notes. But white enough to wake up. That can be seen at a glance using superior paper. I was hesitant to cut the seal, and I just stared with the letter in my hand.

"If anything happens to Atashi, don't let Toslin forget about Atashi..."

"... if..."

"I've never crossed without it, but I'm Atashi at Sorletta Ritta, because I'm dying. So... how much I like what Atashi thinks of Toslin... I wrote it down. Because if I die, I won't be able to tell you anymore. As a word, I wanted to leave it behind."

……

"And the day we first met, we were almost there, weren't we? So with that, I want to do something. And thanks for the pendant."

I was losing my word. It's not even an edge...... and it was all the way out to my throat, but when I heard what Carol said, it disappeared at some point.

"... Since when?

Instead, those words were leaking.

"I wonder if it's around the time I left Sorletta Ritta. Because Iris was bored, he taught me to read and write in exchange for a condition that I would teach him how much free time he could do on the carriage. How are you? Surprised?

Carol gave a bright grin as she leaned her neck, peeking at her characteristic dog teeth, like a child when the prank succeeded.

"... and you've decided... You're the letter? There's no way you can understand that..."

The note is swollen all the time. The contents are supposed to be just paper, but very heavy. How many sheets the hell are you packing...

"Oh, don't read it now, okay? Read it when Atashi is gone. 'Cause otherwise I'd be embarrassed."

"... yeah..."

I just nodded. I couldn't say anything else, I just shook my head vertically.

My eyeballs got hot, and the back of my nose twinkled...

"Is that it? Are you crying a little Toslin? I'm glad Carol wrote me an autograph..."

"... yeah..."

"Cry..."

"Yeah......"

I didn't even imagine Carol was trying to give me this in return.

I was unhappy with Carol letting me go and getting along with Iris and Saluena. I'll give it to you, I treat Carol like a child, and I even try to get it on hand.

With such pity in sight of me, the joy brings me from next to next when I think Carol wrote this letter by sewing between busy moments. At the same time, my heart fills with sorrow.

"Thank you, Carol..."

"... ugh. I want to thank you because you're Atashi. He picked me up about Atashi, and put me aside all the time, thanks."

Carol took out a thirsty handkerchief and wiped my tears. But when they do, the tears become more and more impetuous and spill with polarity.

"It also says in that letter... I love you. Atashi, I want to stay with Toslin forever."

"Me too...... I love you. Even me, with you..."

Oh, I knew I was... stupid. It's this time of year, and I can see why Carol mentioned that.

On the thirty-fifth floor underground, Carol suddenly started talking about the house. That's when I remember the adventurer kicking his ass at home.

Without even thinking about how heavy a word that meant to Carol and how courageous it took.

"Hey, Carol?

I ignored the crisp tears, wiped or not, and laughed at Carol.

"Hey, what?

"We have one big goal."

"Yeah. I'll take all the treasures in the world... right"

"That's right. I've set a goal in a state of jerk at a time when I was always in trouble for money, but I'm going to try to get this for real."

"Seriously?

"Oh, maybe a year ago we couldn't even get one of them all on the contrary... but now we are adventurers of the red ranks. Some of us can be trusted. I don't mean to be too proud, but I don't think there's anything I can't do."

"Hmm? Isn't that okay? Atashi and the others aren't really pinned on Auschnell or whatever the seal is like, and that kind of fucking bumpy? Perhaps the goals are better suited."

That's what Carol said using difficult words. Is this also the effect of being able to read and write?

"But what do we do after we collect the treasure? You want to go home?

"Right. You can go home, you don't have to go home. Anyway, I'm not the eldest son, and I can't use magic, so I'm not particularly expected to succeed you."

I stroke the letter Carol gave me with my finger. It conveys an expensive paper-specific, moist feel.

"So what do you do? Are you interested in the country based on the treasures you've collected?

"Country... well, that's fine, but first you're home"

"... to? Home?"

"It's okay here, it's okay anywhere. Build a big house where you can live."

"Home..."

"And live there, relax"

"... with Toslin, with you?

"Oh, together"

I'll put the letter on my lap and flush a room of silver hair on Carol's face, behind me.

"Well, that's... Um..."

I turned my hair flowing hand straight behind Carol. And I tried to wrap it in my palm and grabbed my head behind me.

"That's what you mean...?

"... that kind of thing?

That's what I ask back, attracting Carol. Slowly bring your lips closer as you peek into your eyes to eat in at the same time.

"Also, no more... you don't have to tell me, you know?

Carol's eyes swim as her face and face approach. My lips trembled, and my hands... stretched out to my neck and face.

"No, I don't know."

"Hey..."

More lips, Carol pushes my face back. But that was only the first moment.

"Hey... you look like Saluena, Toslin right now, huh?

"Yeah, right"

Now we're so close that each other's exhales are on our faces. But Carol doesn't try to push me back like she did earlier with her fingers on my cheek.

"So?"

That's what I hear on top of each other and encourage answers......

"... does that mean that you and Atashi will... marry..."

Carol stayed out of sight, turning bright red to her face rather than her ears, and said so in a fine voice.

……

As I watched such a nasty Carol, I was getting less restrained and finally kissing her.

"Ah..."

I forgot all about the fact that it was still daylight or that the door to the room wasn't locked, and I was kissing Carol.

"Yes, I am."

I answered that briefly and kissed again. At first, as in stumble, but a few more times...... long. Make sure Carol's lips feel.

"Toslin......"

Carol called my name in tears.

When I grabbed Carol's hand, I scratched my chest.

"Carol......"

- Quiet indoors. The only thing that reaches your ears is each other's exhalation and the names that each other speaks of.

I overlapped my lips, as if to reclaim the time I had wasted. Watching how it goes is the goddess Ilua painted on the ceiling.

"I love you."

"Yeah... and Atashi, I love you. Love it, Toslin......"

We exchanged our thoughts again before the goddess and swore it.

Nothing day.

This day was supposed to end as a day of nothing.

But this day... is now a new special day for us.
