A Brief Moment

Sponsored Content

 

After Eclat pulled off the terrifying feat of being acknowledged by Sieg and Elise in an instant, going with that flow, I carry on to introduce Caro and also talk about Priscilla, who stayed behind at the Royal Capital.

Although the two of them were slightly taken aback, they said, ‘well, let us meet her next time’, and forgave me.

When that’s over, Sieg ended up returning to the fortress once again.
We ought to go as well, but Sieg said to relax for today at least, so we decided to leave first thing tomorrow morning.

And currently

“Lei-sama! I am going to wash your back for you!”

, my back is being washed by Chrona.
The location is of course the bathhouse in the mansion.
It seems they didn’t really use the bath because it’s currently in the midst of a war, but since it’ll take no time at all if I do it with Magic, I decided to have everybody go in.

It’s because this bathhouse is spacious, so it takes time to fill up the water, and it’s effortful to heat it as well.
I just have to go ‘splash’ with Water Magic and ‘poof’ with Fire Magic and it’s done.

I thought of having the ladies go in first, but Elise and Chloe

“Lei filled it up, so it’s fine for Lei to go in first.
Besides, you have to pay attention to her”

“Lei-sama, she will be in your care”

The two of them grin and say something like that to me.
Chloe usually doesn’t really say such things to me, if she says something like that then that means, I think and turn around, and Chrona, who looks upwards at me fixedly, was there.

“In that case, Chrona.
Will you wash my back for me?”

When I say that, she burst into a smile and ran off saying, ‘I will go and prepare!’.
Alexia and the others were saying, ‘we’ll yield him to you for today’ as well.

Perhaps it’s their first time seeing Chrona like this, the maids around looked astounded though.

And then, now.
Chrona is washing my back for me while humming joyfully.
I had expected it, but she’s wrapped in a towel.

I go into the bath and such with Alexia and the others, so I’ve gotten slightly used to women’s bare skin.
I’d have refused no matter what if it was last time though.
As I’m thinking of such things and smiling awkwardly

“Lei-sama.
Thank you for the ring.
When it was sent to me, I was so happy that I ended up crying”

Chrona tells me about it bashfully.
I’m happy as well if she was so happy that she cried.

“I actually wanted to give it to you personally though……ah, that’s right.
Chrona, stick your hand that’s wearing the ring out”

I turn around and say to Chrona, who rinsed my back with water.
Chrona sticks her left hand out at me even as she’s tilting her head.

When I remove the ring from her left hand, Chrona makes a terribly sad look for some reason.
So much so that she’s about to burst into tears.
I see that and smile awkwardly.
Even though it’s not like I’m actually trying to take it away from her.

“Chrona.
Don’t make such a sad look.
It’s not like I’m actually trying to take it away from you.
It’s because I didn’t convey it to Chrona properly”

The location is slightly odd, but while going down on one knee in the bathroom and looking up at Chrona

“Chrona.
I love you.
I want you to spend your life with me from here on out”

And then I wear the ring on her left ring finger once again.
Tears gushed from the eyes of Chrona, who was looking fixedly at that.
These, these are tears of joy, right? I’m going to panic if they aren’t though.

“Gu, gusuu, Le, Lei-sama! I love Lei-sama too! I adore you! I want to spend my life with Lei-sama from here on out as well!”

Thank goodness.
They’re tears of joy.
I pull the hand of the bawling Chrona and enter the bath.
I sit cross-legged and make Chrona sit above my crossed-leg.

Chrona, who was bawling, was surprised that she’s sitting on top of me and stopped crying, but this time around, she starts panicking, saying, ‘I cannot sit!’.
However, over there, I forcefully make her sit in a way that she’s hugging her knees.
It’s the so-called physical education sitting¹.
Furthermore, I’m the one hugging them.

Perhaps Chrona is feeling nervous, both her tail and ears are erected.
That’s why to ease her nervousness, by Chrona’s ear

“I’ll be in your care from now on as well.
My beloved Chrona”

I whisper to her, and Chrona’s face is very quickly turning beet red; it then became so red that it feels like it’ll make a ‘poof’ sound.
While patting the head of such a lovely Chrona, I soak in the bathtub relaxingly.

It’s just that, because Chrona’s face was beet red even after that, and we got out of the bath, Alexia and the others, who saw that, interrogated me on exactly what I did I though.

Even though I didn’t do anything in particular…….

◇◇◇

Around the time Lei and Chrona are in the bath

Awawa, I, I wonder how it ended up like this.
Why, why am I being surrounded by everybody?

“This child is Filia-chan huh.
How adorable”

My head is being patted while being told that by the masked woman, Caroline-oneesama.
I only came to thank everybody for coming to help us though.

“She sure is adorable huh.
It’s a different cuteness from Aerith huh”

“Hey, what does that mean, Alexia”

“Nn? It means Aerith has a beautiful feeling, but Filia-chan has a cute and endearing atmosphere”

Everybody is talking joyfully.
All of Onii-sama‘s fiancees look like they get along exceptionally well huh.
Aerith-oneesama and Alexia-oneesama are joking with each other joyfully.

Over there

“It was a great bath.
Wasn’t it, Chrona”

“Ye, yeshh”

Onii-sama and Chro……Chrona? came out from the bath.
I wonder what is wrong with Chrona.
Her face is beet red.
Furthermore, Alexia-oneesama and the others, who noticed it right away, surround Onii-sama.
And then

“Hey, Lei.
What did you do in the bathhouse?”

“You didn’t get turned on in the bathhouse, did you?!”

“Wa, wait a minute, Alexia.
I didn’t do anything in particular! She’s still ten years old, you know! Furthermore, Ferris, a joke like that isn’t needed now!”

“No use arguing!”

“Guheh! Ae, Aerith, you’re strangling me! Caro too, stop plainly pinching me! Ouch! Eclat too, don’t bite!”

While screaming like that, Onii-sama was brought off somewhere by Alexia-oneesama and the others.
I suppose to Onii-sama‘s room.
Chrona is also following behind them unsteadily.

As I am watching that sight

“Looks like they are having fun huh”

somebody talked to me from behind.
I turned around and over there

was if I am not wrong

“Tigris-sama”

Tigris・Lambert-sama, who came to help us with Onii-sama.

“Haha.
‘Sama’ is unnecessary for the current me”

He says to me while laughing.
If I am not wrong, they were saying that he is currently Onii-sama‘s slave.
But, since Onii-sama was saying that it is a temporary thing

“No, this sits better with me.
Leaving that aside, polite speech does not suit Tigris-sama either, you know?”

I giggle, and Tigris-sama is also scratching his head in a manner that is going, ‘I give up’.
But, leaving that aside, there is something that I find strange.

I thought so too when I talked to Caroline-oneesama just now, but Caroline-oneesama and Tigris-sama have a similar vibe as Onii-sama.

I wonder what this warm feeling is? As I am looking fixedly at Tigris-sama in such a manner

“Filia-sama?”

Hah! It was too much of a mysterious sensation, so I ended up looking fixedly at Tigris-sama’s face.
As I am looking downwards from the overwhelming embarrassment, my head was pat gently.

“Fufu, some people will misunderstand if they are looked at by an adorable individual like Filia-sama, so watch out, alright”

Tigris-sama said, and he left the room as well. Mumu.
The way Tigris-sama just said it, it is like he is saying that he is not included amongst those who will misunderstand.
It is not like I was thinking of making him misunderstand in particular, but it is somewhat a mixed feeling.

Furthermore, I did not manage to ask about Tigris-sama and the others’ mysterious sensation.
During this war, they were saying that it will take some time after it is over for it to settle down, so I shall try to ask again.
