I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace
Chapter 1737: Nighttime Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑦Chapter 1737: Nighttime Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑦
To be honest, I thought Shiro-san’s request was almost unreasonable. I completely understood what she wanted, and I was also in a slightly weird tension because she had startled me earlier, so I felt it would be tough to get into a mood where my heart would start racing.
However, it seems like I’ve been underestimating Shiro-san a bit too much.
After a short wait, the door connecting to the changing room opened and Shiro-san entered, holding a towel to cover her front. Her hair, probably so that it wouldn’t get soaked in the hot water…… had its length changed and bundled up together, giving Shiro-san an atmosphere that was unlike usual, but even more prominent than that was her extraordinary beauty.
Her white hair that seems to shimmer in the setting sun, her clean golden eyes, her artistically beautiful skin…… However, unlike the atmosphere she once had when we first met, one that is too far detached from reality, there was instead this gentle air to her, a softness that accentuated Shiro-san, drawing me in even more.
To be honest, much less racing, my heart skipped a beat. I had seen her in many different ways until now, but even so, her overwhelming beauty just left me speechless.
Her appearance really was just too overwhelming, at a level that has taken hold of me in an instant, even when I knew what Shiro-san was aiming for and the atmosphere had been dampened earlier.
[How is it? Did I get your heart racing?]
[……I- It’s a bit frustrating, kinda making me feel like I’m admitting defeat…… but yes, it did. You were so charming, so beautiful that it makes me think you were the very definition of a peerless beauty, and even though I knew you were coming, my heart skipped a beat.]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTelling her that might feel slightly embarrassing, but since Shiro-san can probably read my feelings anyway, trying to deceive her wouldn’t make much sense. In that case, it’s much easier to just be straightforward with my thoughts. No, in the first place, I don’t really need to hold back with my compliments to my lover, so feeling some embarrassment is just inevitable.
After hearing my honest impression, Shiro-san lightly smiled, and after nodding happily, she spoke.
[Fufu, I see…… Kaito-san?]
[Yes?]
[Kaito-san, this beauty you’re feeling…… You have it all to yourself, you know?]
[……Ahaha, how should I say this…… That’s quite the luxurious honor.]
How should I say this…… Even if my heart didn’t race at her initial appearance, my heart ended up racing again by her line just now. In the end, it feels like everything unfolded just as Shiro-san intended.
But well, including such things, I definitely am feeling a sense of happiness in this exchange.
[And so, in the same way, I’ll also have Kaito-san all to myself during this time we’re bathing.]
[Unnn? No, I mean…… We were on a date, weren’t we? Isn’t that already like having me all to yourself? During our date and even now, Shiro-san has always been my top priority.]
[…………….]
[Shiro-san?]
[……It’s a draw then…… After all, my heart also skipped a beat.]
After saying that, the corners of Shiro-san’s lips clearly raised further, looking like she was having fun.
[Well then, while we’re at it, I’ll wash Kaito-san’s back. After that, I’ll ask you to wash my back as well.]
[It’s a staple, but it also feels like something lovers do. Is it alright to be washed first?]
[Yes. Don’t you think the one washing is more likely to bring forth happenings?]
[You still want to make happenings occur!? I mean, if you declare it now, it would be meaningless…… No, you doing it without warning is also troubling in itself……]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow troubling. While knowing in advance that Shiro-san might set something up allows me the chance to be vigilant, on the other hand, it would also make me feel uneasy, wondering when that plan of hers will come. On the other hand, not knowing anything and being caught off guard would make me startled…… How difficult.
Well, since she declared it at this time, I think she’s going to do something while washing my back.
Feeling a bit uneasy, I moved to the space for washing the body and sat down on a chair…… and right after that, with almost no hesitation at all in her movements, Shiro-san’s hands wrapped around me from behind, and Shiro-san embraced me from the back.
[Wha!? Wait, S- Shiro-san!?]
[It’s a happening.]
[No, it’s not a happening, isn’t this just you hugging me normally!?]
An unexpected play right from the start…… A completely-not-happening forceful back hug…… However, even though it isn’t a happening, its destructive power is tremendous. The warmth that is transmitted to my back and the soft feeling that is pressed against me involuntarily made my face flush.
[Well, because I wanted to hug Kaito-san, so I would say it’s 10% happening.]
[Then, that’s completely not a happening anymore, just an intentional action……]
[Maybe so.]
While seemingly agreeing to my words of astoundment, Shiro-san didn’t seem inclined to let go and had instead tightened her embrace on me. Feeling her exuding a hint of playful enthusiasm…… her cheerful mood clearly conveyed, I also didn’t feel inclined to ask to be let go. Feeling a mixture of embarrassment and comfort, I decided to maintain that state until Shiro-san was satisfied.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [A- Anyone, come here already!!! If this keeps up…… Are you alright with this!? I’ll end up turning into sugar, and there will be no one to provide commentary, you know!!!? Are you really fine with that!!!? Hurry up, you won’t know what you’re losing until it’s too late!!!]
