137. Spring Outing (5)

“I can’t even see that elf…… Temptation.”

“… ….”

I was speechless.

What is seduction? Isn’t it seduction to entice the opposite s*x with one’s own charm?

But if you look at Sione now….

It seemed that there was a gap between the word temptation I knew and the temptation Shione recognized.

“hahahaha… ….”

Laughter empty. The sound of laughter that leaked out was irresistible.

How on earth can it be tempting to unbutton the two buttons on the front island and steal the cookie someone else was trying to eat?

I’m pretending not to know so that Shione won’t be embarrassed, but…. Shione, as if she were a rodent herself, kept a cookie in her soft cheek.

Thanks to that, I can feel it with my palm touching her cheek.

In this situation, even if I lick my fingers covered in cookie crumbs, I can only see myself as a cookie-crazy insectivore.

Did Shione, who spent a long time alone in the corner of her room, learn this ridiculous seduction method?

I’d rather have an alluring look for temptation… I gently stroked Shione’s cheek, who showed me a little closer to Baekchimi.

“Ummm… ….”

Shione’s expression relaxed for a moment, as if she hadn’t known that she would be tempted into it all at once.

Instead of her alluring side to seduce others, Sione’s side that is close to being a fool stands out even more.

She understood the situation in a daze for a moment. Soon after, the beautiful Milky Way is contained within her wall.

In her eyes, what kind of future she was drawing, there was a lot of suppressed expectations.

“Shione.”

“Ugh, huh?”

Stroking her cheek.

Pinch!

With my thumb and forefinger, I pinched Shione’s soft cheek.

A small question looms above expectations.

“What is temptation?”

“Oooooh… !”

I tugged at the flesh of her cheeks.

“Lee, Ray! I want to play… !”

Oops, my boss is telling me to let go. How could a servant disobey?

My hand moved away from her cheek, and Shione stroked my cheek and glared at me.

A puppy with its tail lowered, embarrassed by the sudden mischief, expresses a small resentment towards me.

“Ooh… Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“I really want to ask. What kind of temptation is this all of a sudden?”

“That… Like I said before, after seeing that elf, I got a little nervous…….”

“Um… ….”

Friel Arielt’s smile on me seems to have stimulated Shione’s jealousy and obsession.

The last time Friel and Sione met for the first time, they clung to me. When we ran into each other this time, he said he would rather seduce me and took my cookie and ate it. At this point, I wonder if Shione will do something even after the next contact.

But that’s it.

I had one more question for her to ask her.

“And where did you learn this seduction?”

How the hell did my master learn this very lax method of seduction?

When I asked that question, Shione secretly avoided my gaze and started scratching her cheek.

“That… ….”

After hesitating for a while, Shione timidly pointed her finger at the bookshelf in the room.

“… I saw it in a fiction book.”

“Ah… ….”

In fact, there were a lot of novels on Shione’s bookshelf besides a botanical dictionary.

It seems that she tried to recreate the seduction scene in her novel by overlaying it on her.

“Obviously, if the men were like this, the female protagonists would have passed on.”

Oh, f*ck. Oh God.

“… Are the male characters like that? Just grabbing her hand, putting it on your cheek, and licking her finger?”

Flinch!

When Shione explained what she had done to me, she blushed widely as if she was quite ashamed of what she had just done.

She looked at me and finally nodded her head with her little sigh.

“Yes, of course. How could a woman do such a gross thing?”

“Ah… ….”

Oh my god. It’s written that men do such gross things.

I never imagined that the novels on the bookshelf would have been so frightening.

… I realized that the pen is mightier than the sword.

As I was shuddering at the gap between the s*xes, Shione’s words from earlier caught me.

“And Shione… If a woman did it, she did something gross.”

Flinch.

There was a ripple in Sione’s pupils.

“Are you okay?”

“… It’s okay, it’s okay.”

Shione bowed her head.

Her face was hidden by her drooping hair.

She wriggled her toes for a while. Shione, who had been staring at the ground for a while, lifted her head slightly and looked up at me.

“Because I’m Lay’s older brother’s sister… ….”

“… ….”

“It’s not strange for a younger sister to act cute to her older brother… Yo. This…… ?”

I stroked Shione’s hair and eventually she burst into laughter.

I couldn’t help it. What if the situation is pretty funny.

Then, as if my laughter had been an insult to Shione, her entire face turned completely red.

“Ugh… Why are you laughing… !”

She couldn’t answer because she was laughing.

“My brother said he came from a world where men and women were reversed… ! I liked it so much that I undid two buttons…… !”

Drruck!

Shione jumps up from her chair and the dodo approaches me with a quick gait.

Then she tuk tuk, and starts hitting me with her weak fist.

“… An older brother who was not tempted is strange! Oppa, he said he likes me!”

“I don’t like it. To the point where you can’t even compare to a dwarf like an elf.”

“Yeah, of course oppa likes me more than an elf like that—”

Shione, who was spitting out her anger very quickly, stopped and started staring at me.

“Ugh… ….”

“But—”

I poke Shione’s cheek like that.

“I don’t think it would be hard to like the cookies in your mouth.”

It was the cheek on which the cookie that Shione had taken from me was stored.

“Ah.”

Only then did Shione realize her mistake.

I gave her a small smile and said in her mischievous tone.

“Shione-nim, you seem to be quite far from the word temptation, right?”

“Ray, you… !”

Shione’s expression was contorted like that of a child about to burst into tears.

It seems that he was not ashamed of himself when he recalled my teasing.

Shione finally spoke the word after a long time.

“Get out!!”

I spoke to her at the table in front of me. She said after taking the empty plate or teacup on it.

“Then I’ll bring you some more cookies and tea.”

Well, if you come back, your anger will be relieved.

If things don’t go well, if you stroke her head until it’s on fire, it’ll calm down somehow, well.

After returning to the room, time passed quickly.

It was quite noisy outside once in the middle, and I wondered if it was because the dwarves who were planning to come in the evening entered the Count’s residence.

It’s a bit late today, so I’ll talk about something important tomorrow….

Well, Ainel Cianella will handle the story with Friel Arielt.

She told her about the shadyness of her ears before. She should be able to deal with elves while being wary of them to some extent.

If you have any problems—

“Ray… Can we sleep in my room tonight?”

It was that Shione was sending me a request that she didn’t usually do, as if she wasn’t tired of playing seduction yet.

“… What else do you mean by that?”

“Oh, no, I don’t mean much… I just want to be with you a little longer…….”

“Um. Do you still care about that elf?”

“… Yeah, I just keep thinking about it.”

You are very worried.

Despite the many times I’ve explained why I can’t be possessed by an elf, Sione didn’t let down her wariness of her Friel easily.

Earlier in the day, when she went to see off Friel. Even when she asked what the conversation was about, she just consistently said it was nothing special. Doesn’t say anything It’s so frustrating, so frustrating.

“And—”

Shione starts staring at me with expectant eyes.

“I think I can have good dreams if you stay by my side.”

Well, being by your side is no big deal.

“I will at least hold your hand until you fall asleep. How is it?”

Shione nodded her head.

Then, Shione went on the bed and inside the blanket. I placed a chair with a backrest next to the bed and sat down comfortably.

“Goodnight, Ray.”

After saying that, Shione skillfully kissed my forehead, then closed her eyes while holding my right hand tightly.

A night with the lights off. Only the soft light of the moon shining through the window calmly illuminates the room.

Quick…….

Shione’s breathing has stabilized.

Well, this should have been enough sleep.

Now that was the moment I got up from my seat to go back and rest.

Kwak.

I felt stronger than I thought in Shione’s grip, which was holding my hand.

“…… ?”

Shione, who had her eyes closed, was staring at me clearly.

In the darkness of her blue eyes, it was shining bright like that of a wild beast that had caught its prey.

“Not yet.”

“… ….”

“Sit down.”

10 Minutes have passed.

“I haven’t slept yet.”

30 Minutes.

“Sit down.”

45 Minutes.

“Not yet.”

“Wait.”

“Ray.”

Why is this author, who usually sleeps well in an instant, doing this?

Maybe it’s because I’ve been walking around all day today, and I have a lot to think about after meeting with the elves.

I’m pretty tired too.

“Shione, can’t this be called temptation?”

“… ….”

Her closed eyelids moved.

“Brother… Beauty is sleeping next to her. Shouldn’t we kiss at least once… Yo. This…… ?”

Beauty and what.

Quietly, a deep sigh creeps up.

Shione lifts her eyelids and looks at me, and she puts on a puzzled expression.

“Le, Ray…… ?”

… To kill?

* *

Friel Arielt quietly looked out the window at Cianella’s housekeeper in the room assigned to him.

Late at night, the moon rose from the spot where the sun had stayed, shining a soft light on the world.

“Heung-“

She looked up at the moon and snorted.

“… Damn demons. Your bond with the spirit has weakened again.”

The demon’s demonic powers reached the Daesilim’s clan before they knew it.
