Chapter 363 – 32. The Kingdom of the Twin Gods
“How do you think it reminds me of my hometown?”
“Oh, you mean hometown?”
Maki Senjo was embarrassed by Han Si-woo who suddenly came.
Today’s plan is to rest on our own in the morning, then go out around noon, have lunch, and tour the island. So, I had just changed into my pajamas to get some more sleep in her room.
I felt strangely embarrassed to have him see my thin and flowy pajamas.
Why did he find himself?
As she was flustered, she was able to understand the reason when she looked at the paper Siwoo took out of her arms.
“Ah.”
“Yes. My hometown. Futashima has many similarities with Japan.”
[I came here because I have something to say. If you find it difficult to react, just pretend to listen.]
A piece of paper with something different from what is being said.
There was not just one piece of paper, and a pen was also provided.
In other words, it is a secret conversation based on wiretapping.
‘Wow, wow. Something…’
My heart is pounding because it’s like something I’ve seen in a cartoon.
But is that all it is? Is this cartoon-like situation just the cause of my heart pounding and dangerously pounding sound?
She unconsciously tried to shake her head but then stopped.
Even Maki himself doesn’t know the reason. An unidentified feeling creeping up in my chest. It held her head tightly. And then he raised her head and made her look at Siwoo’s face.
“Maki? Are you okay?”
“… Oh, oops, I’m sorry. I guess I’m still half asleep.”
“Ah, that could be true.”
Because Maki Senjo’s reaction was strange, Shiu wondered if he should stop the secret conversation.
There’s nothing good about giving a clue to Suzume if you make a mistake.
But Maki took his pen and wrote on paper.
[It’s okay. You can say it.]
‘Why does this person’s speaking style seep into his writing?’
Regardless of the question, Si-woo nodded her head slightly and continued two conversations at the same time.
“Because I came to an unfamiliar place. I changed my bed.”
[I’m sorry, but I have a favor to ask during afternoon tour time]
“Oh, it’s true. I always slept on the floor in my hometown, but I feel like the bed has already become more comfortable.”
[There’s nothing to be sorry about. You can order anything!]
“Haha. I guess it was the original bed, then.”
[Thank you. I’ll write down a few things later, so take them to Hikari.]
“So, that’s it. In my hometown… Um.”
[You can write it down right away]
Senjo Maki dragged Siu’s speech a little longer so that he could focus on writing.
It was the most appropriate help. No matter how hard he was, it was difficult to move his words and hands separately.
While she was pretending to remember her old days, Siwoo was playing with her hands quickly.
Maki glanced at what he was writing and then continued speaking.
“Hehe, I was born in Hokkaido.”
“Hokkaido? Oh, was it the northernmost point of Japan?”
“That’s right. It’s an island at the top of an archipelago, and it’s quite rural.”
She takes a break from speaking at one tempo and then starts talking about her past again.
Like many heroes from Earth, Maki Senjo also grew up without much difference.
The only difference is that she was her outcast.
Unlike now, Maki was quite shy and introverted when she was young.
That may not be the reason, but thanks to her, she was unilaterally punished.
A few people bullied her and others ignored her for several years starting from elementary school.
The person who put an end to it was a girl who transferred from Tokyo in middle school.
To Maki, who spent her free time watching cartoons and dramas because she had no friends, her transfer student was like a cartoon. She is in poor health due to an illness and is moving to her country home for treatment.
I can’t believe a transfer student like that cares about me.
In less than a month, the two became best friends.
And Senjo Maki learned a lot from her.
Most of them were the various values that still make up the human called Maki.
A representative example is the chivalry.
Unfortunately, the friend was ultimately unable to shake off her illness and closed her eyes.
A few years later, Maki Senjo was summoned to this world.
“That’s roughly the story.”
“…”
As the serious conversation suddenly started, Si-Woo stopped teasing her.
He also had a vague idea of Senjo Maki’s past.
But I didn’t know the details about her and I didn’t even know she would talk like this.
“Uh, um, I’m sorry. I started talking all of a sudden…”
Maki apologizes while looking at Siwoo’s expression.
“Oh, no, no. If you apologize like that, it makes me feel weird.”
“Ahaha.”
“I’m rather grateful.”
“Huh, four?”
“Honestly, it’s not an easy thing to say, right? Saying something like that means you trust me more than before. I’m happy both as a clan master and as a colleague.”
“…”
Siwoo placed his hand on her red short hair and stroked it.
It was easy to pet him because he was so small that it didn’t even reach his chest.
It was a skinship that seemed like a special little brother, but Maki was not in a good mood.
It was nice to pat his head, but he hated being treated like this.
“… Haengnim.”
“Yes.”
“… Uh, ah… I don’t like being treated like a child too much.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it.”
When Siwoo removed his hand, Maki felt a little disappointed.
Still, I liked the warmth I felt from his big hands.
‘Oh, no!’
Maki, who was just slightly aware of something, quickly took a pen from Siwoo and wrote something on paper.
[After doing my favor, I want to receive a reward]
“Huh?”
Siwoo looked at the sentence she had written and made a sound without realizing it.
After realizing my mistake later, I brought up a different topic.
“Ah. Then. It might not feel like home so much.”
“It’s a bit like that. The overall atmosphere seems similar, but it’s a lot different than you think.”
“That’s… It’s unfortunate, but it’s also fortunate.”
“Why is that so?”
“Hmm. Isn’t Maki going to naturalize because of homesickness?”
“… Even if you’re not homesick, it’s never going to happen.”
“…”
“…”
The room became quiet for a moment.
Maki pointed to her writing with her pen and urged her to answer.
He had an angry expression on his face, as if he was trying to exploit me for free.
Of course Siwoo had no intention of doing that.
I was just embarrassed because it was the first time Maki had so blatantly asked for compensation.
Siwoo, who hesitated a little, nodded his head.
“Ah…!”
“Why?”
“Oh, no, I just remembered something I forgot.”
“I forgot… Hehe, I understand. You forgot about Hikari?”
“Yes, four? Ugh, that’s right…”
“Please come back later when I’m sightseeing. Still, I’m a party member, so I need to take good care of myself.”
“That’s right! Hikari has a good personality and taught me how to fight in detail.”
“Haha, then you should do better.”
After that, the two continued talking a little more.
Even though the written conversation ended long ago.
Although he had already written down everything she had to say to him, Siwoo somehow wanted to talk more with Maki. And the same goes for Maki. The smile did not end on the face of the girl warrior with short red hair.
“… Something like that happened.”
“… What is that?”
Hikari couldn’t close her mouth.
Doesn’t her heart tingle just by hearing these words?
There is no direct expression to each other, but the atmosphere is unusual no matter who hears it.
What particularly surprised Hikari was Maki’s behavior.
“Were you… Aware? No, did you realize it now?”
“…? What do you mean?”
“…”
Maki Senjo tilts her head with a face that says she really doesn’t know.
Hikari sighed.
‘Of course.’
It seems like it was just a coincidence.
Senjo Maki is an idiot who is only an adult but has little experience in the world and is still immature in human relationships. Maki’s party colleagues all know the reason because they have heard of her past.
‘He’s small and not that big yet… ‘
Hikari’s eyes instantly fell on Maki’s chest.
He’s only about 150 cm tall, but he’s hiding the biggest chunk of fat in the party.
‘… Hmm. Still, it was still less big!’
“Sister.”
“Oh, sorry. I said the saint gave me something.”
Hikari received a piece of paper with Siu’s note written on it.
If it had been anywhere else, there would have been no benefit in mentioning this, but here it didn’t matter.
Hikari’s family is one of the top five prestigious families on Fox Island.
In particular, it had the highest status among human families.
No matter how Suzume is, it is not easy to monitor a prestigious family like this, and it is a dangerous task that could lead to political backlash if you are not careful. There was even a magic barrier, so the room boasted the most defensive walls among the mansion grounds.
“This is…”
“Sister.”
When her Maki called out to her again, Hikari nodded with a stern look on her face.
“Okay. My mission is very important. I will do my best.”
“It seems like he likes that gentleman.”
“… Huh?… Huh?… What?!”
Hikari was astonished.
I never thought I would have realized my true love.
“You might be surprised, but I’m serious.”
“Oh, no, I was noticing it…”
“Eh.”
Haha!! You’re so obvious. I’m sure everyone at our party knows.”
“Well, did you do that?”
Maki scratched her cheek in embarrassment.
She thought it was a huge confession, but I didn’t think she already knew.
But it’s strange.
She thought she had only recently started to like him, but it was obvious. Still, what can I do? In the end, it’s true that he likes it. What’s important now is not trivial facts like when you first started liking it.
“So, I decided to receive a prize if I did this job well.”
“… Wow. You really… You go crazy as soon as you realize it.”
“I can’t help it. There are too many women around me!”
“That’s right.”
All attractive beauties.
Maki Senjo is also cute, but she can’t be called a pretty girl.
Still, it has plenty of differentiated charm.
For example, great breasts that don’t match a small body.
“Good. My job has become more important. I will really do my best.”
“Yes? No, that’s not it. I’m going to pick it up later…”
“What?”
“Well, the purpose of this case was to deliver a note to my sister…”
“…”
Hikari was at a loss for words.
It seems that my party leader was more of a meat eater than I thought.
“No, so… Well, I’ll ask you to fuck me with a dick as a reward?”
“Hi! How can I say that? I just said that, the key, the kiss…”
“Hmm. It’s definitely difficult to suddenly make progress.”
Above all, it is unclear what Han Si-woo thinks of Maki Senjo.
Sometimes, when I saw them playing around, they often looked like same-sex brothers despite their innocent appearance.
“Okay. Even though I’m still a virgin, I’ll give you my own advice.”
“Boo, please, sister!”
“Yes!”
Hikari smiled brightly as she saw her cute little sister clasping her hands together.
The work her saint asked her to do was important, as it depended on the future of her country, but it was also very important to her. This is how she helps her lovely younger brother Maki achieve his first love.
“Okay. Then, for now…”
