After turning the chatter around, we all went back to our rooms today because we were already tired.

And I was just practicing because I got a centipede bra flowing.

I can paste this crystal anywhere I want, so I'm going to use it around the shoulder of the armor.

Now there is only one object that can be manipulated, and the speed at which it flies is a little faster than walking.

It's not very good yet, but it's unlikely to be used in action.

But you can change the shape freely and make it look like a needle or a wall, so you can use it for attacks and defenses.

I guess it depends on my efforts in the future.

"Phew, I'm pretty tired..."

After practicing for a while, I decided to take a break.

Don't get more tired of imagining and moving in your head than you thought.

Plus, I'm getting a little hungry.

I want to eat something light, and select a snack from my phone to materialize it.

I haven't had a lot of sweets before, so sometimes I want sweets too.

The stuff that came out was brown long, thin square bread.

I had already split into ten slices, so I just took a slice and ate it.

"Whoa!?

It looks plain, but when I try it, it tastes sweet and moist and kind of liquor-like.

I also smelled the scent and it smelled sweet and good.

... Is this a guy named Brandy Cake?

I don't like alcohol that much, but it's pretty tasty.

But as far as I'm concerned, I'd rather not be a little more alcoholic...

"Well, a little more practice... hmm?

I tried to practice again after eating a slice, but I heard a knock on the door between Concon and my room.

Who is it? Estelle comes to my room a lot, but I'm tired today and I think I'm already asleep...

It's open.

It's not locked, so I say you can come in.

Then the door opened and the knocked person showed up.

Please excuse me.

"What, Knoll?"

I came to the room with a knoll in my pyjamas on my eye mask.

How many times have you been in my room like this?

"That's unusual. I can't believe you came to my room. Do you want to sit here for now?

"Thank you, it is"

With only one chair, I decided to sit Knoll down and I would sit in bed.

"So, what can I do for you?

"Uh, it is..."

Knoll joins his index fingers on both hands, shyly mojimoji.

What are you so embarrassed to come all of a sudden?

... Oh, maybe that one.

"Is that it, you're here to do me a favor when I'm in Compgacha? You want some food, too?

"Chi, it's not! It's rude of you to say that!

Apparently not.

I thought you were going to say that you want to eat as much food as you like because you are so hungry.

Speaking of which, no one's said that wish yet.

Maybe I haven't forgotten, and I'm freaking out when it's coming.

"Then what the hell is it?

"That's right...... thank you for today, it is!

You made up your mind. You stopped moping, and Knoll turned to me.

And I bow my head deeply, thanking you.

What, what? Did I do something you'd be thanked for?

"... about what?

"Lord Okura, you helped me today when I was caught by Rigasmanus, didn't you? So I wanted to thank you..."

Knoll is off his face this time, mojimoji again.

What, were you still dragging about today?

Totally, I don't know how many times I have to thank Knoll and the others for taking the time to thank me.

"Did you still care? I didn't have to come all the way out here to thank you."

"So, but it is... well, I was so glad that you prevented me from falling and the Smythe attack was about to hit... and then I was crushed."

He wears or releases his index finger and tries to look illuminated while dyeing his cheeks.

I can't believe I'm protecting Knoll, I've never had one before.

She may have been impressed with today because she is somewhat on the side of protecting others.

... Well, I think it's ruined because he was bouncing off and crushing Knoll.

"Knoll always helps me. I'm sorry I didn't have to help you then."

"... Osakura-kun, you've really changed"

Knoll has helped me so far.

So I don't just want to be protected in the future, I want to be able to help each other.

The difference with Knoll is still intense, so we need to work harder.

"I'm glad to see the growth of Lord Okura, but it's getting less and less dependable, and I'm a little lonely..."

Knoll looks a little sad, lowering his voice and whining.

Hmm, that doesn't sound like it. If it's not Knoll, who's as cheerful as he always is, something's going to go wrong.

"Whoa, what? You want to be counted on? Then gather the demon stones..."

"Ah! It's not! People are serious because of you, but I hope you're not kidding me!

"Ha, sorry. But don't be so smug. I'm counting on Knoll, and I'm counting on him."

When I hung up to gather demon stones, I stood up and screamed with great speed.

The vibe just blew up and I laughed unexpectedly.

Uh, I knew Knoll had to be like this.

I can't believe I didn't count on you. That's not true at all.

With her, we can fight with confidence.

"Look, I'm here because of you, and you still want to eat this?

"This is... what is it?

"It's brandy cake. It may not be enough compared to a parfait or anything, but it's delicious."

Looks like we're back to our usual tension, so I finally offered Knoll the brandecake we were eating earlier.

He may be a little strong on alcohol, but he won't even get drunk if he runs out of a few.

"Oh, it feels kind of strange, but unlike the usual sweetness, it's delicious!

"Well, that's good"

Knoll, who had a slice in his hand, mouthed it pakly.

Apparently it fits my mouth and I can eat with Bakubaku in no time.

Hmm, you feel good as usual. You're full of food.

Knoll took another slice and finished the meal instantly.

And yet another ni slice, three slices and disappearing into my mouth.

"Oh, hey? You ate too much, didn't you? Are you okay?"

"Uh, hey, what is it?

I was so stunned by the amount of food I ate, but I called out to see if it would suck to see a knoll that I could eat in silence.

I've already eaten four slices, and I'm entering the fifth.

No matter how weird it is, I might get drunk if I ate it all at once.

I worried about that, but Nole's voice in reply was tense and kind of loose.

Oh, maybe this is too late.

"It's fuzzy and feels good ~"

"And for now, stop eating anymore!

"Ah! Why are you taking it -!

"Whoa, hey, don't push it!

I told him to stop it already, and I'll take up the cake he's eating.

Then Knoll jumped at me after the cake he had taken up standing up.

Raising his hand on top so that he can't take it, Knoll pushes his body against me with a ghoul and tries to reach out and take it.

Because we were doing that, we couldn't stand it and fell into the back bed for both of us.

"Huh, it feels good ~"

"Hey! Hey, back off!

There was a glimpse of Knoll burying his face in my belly.

It's like when the cyclops were there before.

I've already switched my interest from cake because I'm drunk, and I'm sloppily half-opening my mouth with a voice that looks good on me.

One hand stays raised above, so I try to pull the knoll off with the empty hand, but I don't make it slight.

"Mm-hmm, why do you hate it like that? Do you hate me?

"You didn't say you hated me! Look, look, I'm dropping the cake, and you can't move like this, can you?

Is that what you were unhappy with, swelling your cheeks and now you're pumping and angry?

Damn, how did this happen? You still shouldn't have seen it sweet that you wouldn't get drunk...... I was licking Knoll's appetite.

I didn't expect to eat so many so soon......

"Ogura has always treated me badly. Even I want to be nice..."

"Nothing like that...... I don't... wonder?

With his mouth full of things he wouldn't normally say, he reinforced the power of his arm that seemed to knoll if he wasn't going to leave at all.

I can't believe you thought that.

It does seem that there are rare instances of terrible treatment...... yeah, you do.

Knoll kind of feels like a boyfriend, so I follow him.

"Is it because you can't see your face after all! That's right! Then I'll take it for you!

"I didn't say anything!?

To my vague reply, Knoll thrives on his own.

Curled up to the point where there was no gap to interrupt, she threw off her own eyesmask as it gained momentum.

"This is it! What do you think, Okura-san?

And before my eyes, a man appeared in the knoll that I had seen for a very long time.

I took my breath away at her staring at me with her moist eyes and her exhilarating red face.

"Hey, say. What do you think?"

"What, no, who?

"Knoll."

Turn away and when I keep my mouth shut, I just gouged my clothes off, telling you to stay calm.

That... that's crazy? Was Knoll in this tone when he was bare?

I remember being polite like Sisha......

No way. Is this the original knoll?

It's the third time I've seen it myself, but maybe it's this way when I talk to Estelle and the others face to face?

Unexpectedly, when I heard who I was, I gradually came up to the top of my body with a faint reply.

"Hey, don't climb up!

"'Cause you're out of your face. I need you to take a good look."

Don't come climbing in one hand or I'll push your shoulder back, but there's no stopping at all.

It's impossible for me to beat a Knoll opponent by force because he's totally losing by his vegan stats.

In the end, the resistance was vain, and Knoll proceeded to my chest.

"Eh heh, I got you! Look, Osakura-san, how's it going?

"Gu, ha, go away..."

He grabbed the deviant face with both hands and was pulled glitchy in the front.

Because of that, I'm supposed to see Knoll's face directly in front of me, and my heart jumps.

Damn... you think I'm thrilled with knoll opponents?

I won't admit it, I won't admit it, that's not true! I admit it's cute, but come on!

"Mmm, he said something to me... okay... is that it? Right in front of me..."

Nico and I smiled and waited for my reply, Knoll suddenly flaunted his head and let go of his hand and fell to the side.

Looks like you got drunk all around.

"... Huh, thank God"

Ha, it was dangerous.

I don't mean to bother you with that, but it's bad for your heart to keep looking straight at that one.

"Ugh, uhh... hey..."

"Totally... sleeping in a good mood."

Poking a sleeping knoll cheek in return, he frowns and looks like he's having trouble sleeping.

I can't believe this is happening because I let you eat the cake.

And at the end of the day, I went to bed... well, thanks to that, I was saved.

I put my eye mask back on my sleeping knoll and decided to lift it up and transport it to my room.

You can't keep letting him sleep in my bed like this, and if he finds out around Sisha, he'll definitely make fun of you.

And I opened the door to the room to carry it in a hurry...

"Oh, brother."

"Whoa!? E, Estelle, what's going on?

"No, I just wanted to talk to your brother for a second. Than that...... Knoll, what's wrong?

In front of my room, Estelle stood smiling.

At not too much time, my heart jumps in a different way than just now.

Estelle...... I thought you were asleep.

"Ah, oh. If I let him eat something crazy, he'd get drunk with the booze in it. I slept with him, so I brought him to his room."

"Heh, yeah. You do sound like you're sleeping well."

He looks the same as usual and is convinced to see Knoll.

I'm scared they're gonna mistake me for doing something to get a drunk sleeping girl out of her room.

"So, what are you doing with me?

"It's not important. Wouldn't it be better if we brought Knoll to his room faster than that?

"Right. I hope so..."

I was freaked out if they would say anything, but Estelle told me to back off and carry him fast for a while.

I wonder what the business is, but don't you need to worry that it's not important?

I walked out of the white hallway to get to the unbuilt part of my house where Knoll's room was.

"Estelle, you came to my room by chance, didn't you?

"... yeah, of course. It's a coincidence."

But I was just wondering if it was a coincidence, so I asked Estelle.

After a moment of silence, she replies that it is a coincidence.

"Right, it's a coincidence, haha"

"Yeah, I am. It's a coincidence, hehe."

No, I'm glad it was a coincidence.

I don't like your brother-in-law, I wondered what I would do if he told me.

"Estelle's not feeling well either, so get some sleep."

"I'm gonna get some sleep after this. Good night, brother."

When I tell Estelle to sleep, in a gentle voice she rests and replies.

I felt my gaze on my back while I followed the hallway where only my own footsteps echoed.
