Chapter 14 – Russ (2)
“Chi, wake up. Have breakfast.”
A voice that can be heard even in sleep.
After taking a break that felt like a nap, I opened my eyes.
Doesn’t look like he slept long.
But the world outside was definitely brighter than before.
“… Russ?”
“Get up soon. Now we should have a good time.”
Russ was squatting by the bed, watching me.
How long did you wait for me while I was taking a break?
I am very sorry that I slept alone after making an appointment with my friend.
Looking at the situation, it looks like they prepared it until morning.
I got up.
One arm went numb for no reason.
When I stood up, she got up and went to get some food.
“… Russ even did something like this. Sorry.”
“No. Our leader looks tired, but this is enough.”
She says playfully.
… I am slightly moved.
Meanwhile, she brought food.
“It’s nothing special… But eat a lot and be alert.”
It was soup.
As if she were nursing her, she even put a spoon in her and brought her to bed.
“Thank you.”
He took it as it was, glanced at her, scooped a spoonful, and put it in his mouth.
It tasted even better because I fell asleep without eating dinner.
I told her with a slight smile.
“It is delicious.”
“Really?”
Russ laughs with delight.
After enjoying my reaction for a moment, she rose again and brought her own.
She also put a spoonful into her mouth and nodded.
“It turned out delicious.”
I nodded as I continued to gorge on the soup.
I was eating like that for a long time, filling my hungry stomach, when she suddenly asked.
“That… Didn’t Mr. Lily cook breakfast the other day…?”
“Yes?”
“…Compared to what Lily did for you, what tastes better?”
She glanced at me with her head buried in the bowl.
I think Bien also asked this.
He made me a sandwich and asked me which of Lily noona’s food was delicious.
Is it a characteristic of women?
Should your food taste better than other people’s food?
But at that time, Bien’s sandwiches were as delicious as Lily’s noona’s food,
There is no reason to do less to Russ.
Of course, Lily’s food tastes better, but Russ waited for me while I slept and even prepared food.
“… I think this tastes better. It’s a secret from Lily.”
The eyes looking over the bowl widened.
She put her head into the bowl with a look of delight and continued to scoop up the soup.
-Dalgrakdalgrak
In an instant, my soup ran out.
“Would you like more?”
“Uh… Will you please?”
I was still hungry.
She gets up and brings more.
Having just brought more soup, she handed over the bowl and asked again.
“Oh, by the way, what did you do when you met Lily a few days ago?”
“Ah then… ?”
I did many things throughout the day, but only one or two are memorable.
“Uh… I went shopping.”
“What shopping?”
She took the soup she gave her and put it in her mouth.
Russ sits down again and finishes her soup.
“My sister bought me clothes. He said he wanted to see my boyfriend’s look, but since I didn’t have any clothes, my sister made it for me.”
Widely.
Russ’s actions stop for a moment.
Then again, she spontaneously scoops up her soup.
“Why do you want to see that all of a sudden? Do you like it?”
Russ’ words remind him of an argument he had with Lily’s sister.
Lily said she resolutely said she didn’t like me.
“Ahaha… What nonsense. Not that. I just want you to do well when you have a lover.”
Russ nodded her head.
“Okay? Can you show me now?”
“Ah. Take some expensive clothes with you. They say it takes quite a while to make. I don’t have any clothes yet.”
“Are these custom-made clothes?”
“Yes. Can I get it in a few days?”
“Then you haven’t seen Lily yet either.”
Hmm… I tried on the lame example outfits, but of course Lily noona hasn’t seen the exclusive clothes that fit my size yet.
“Right?”
Then she continues to eat her soup and asks in passing.
“Can you show me the clothes first?”
“What, those clothes?”
Why? It would be annoying if I set the order of things like this.
“No, it doesn’t matter. Why? Maybe I should show you first if Lily asks.”
“I was curious too. What to wear when you have a lover. Also, shouldn’t you get a confirmation from me and organize it a bit before showing it to Lily-noona?”
Shall we show it to Arus first, fix her problem and then show it to Lily?
Good idea. I think Lily noona who bought the clothes will be more satisfied.
“I know. That’s good Okay then, when the clothes arrive, I’ll show you first.”
“Hehe. Yes.”
As she grinned and was about to eat more of her soup, she called me again.
“Oh, Chis. Then let’s go shopping today.”
After. Today is also a start.
Work and the first one. Shopping
“Shopping? What should I buy?”
“I have. If Lily bought you something, I’ll buy you something too.”
I waved my hand.
“Ah, what is that? Done.”
“No. This is a gift for you who have been through a lot. You are the leader.”
I hesitated at the word “You must have suffered.”
Okay. It’s been hard lately.
It would be nice to receive a little reward.
“… I really won’t say no three times?”
She laughs
“I will buy it. Let’s go shopping.”
****
Where she led me, everything sparkled.
Jewels and trinkets that sparkled in various colors.
It was a jewelry store.
I didn’t expect this.
“Uh… Russ? It seems a little overdone here.”
Huh? Puzzled, Russ turned to me.
Then she burst into laughter.
“Oh, I can’t buy expensive ones either. Don’t worry.”
“… Okay?”
A little less stress on the mind.
After all, jewelry stores don’t always have expensive items.
…Am I right? You must have been there to know.
“Ah… But I’m a little worried. I don’t wear jewelry very well.”
“Still, I bought it for you, so you should wear it even if it’s annoying.”
“No, that’s fine. I’m not worried about being annoying, but I’m afraid I’ll lose it because I’m not used to it.”
Suddenly, the atmosphere suddenly changes, and Russ speaks coldly.
“…But will I get angry if I lose it?”
Goosebumps sprang up.
“That… Then. I will try.”
Annoyances are added to my daily routine.
Russ, who smiled again and changed her mood to ease, approached her shopkeeper.
The shop owner asks.
“What are you here for?”
“I want to buy a friendship ring. Could you show me something that isn’t too expensive?”
“A friendship ring?”
Oh You came to buy a friendship ring.
I even bought you a necklace.
Russ and I haven’t been together for long.
There was no objection to wearing a friendship ring.
The shop owner looks at us alternately.
“There is no specific friendship ring… The ring is the same anyway. It depends on how you give it meaning.”
“Yes. Hehe. I know.”
The shopkeeper nods to Russ’ answer.
“The cheap silver rings are over there, so take a look.”
And he pointed to one side with her finger.
With her permission, Russ dragged me along and went in that direction.
There were rings of various shapes.
From thick to thin. From those made with a little esoteric shape to simple ones.
Russ’ eyes twinkled.
“Wow… Everything is pretty.”
Russ looked excited.
“Chis, choose quickly.”
“But this is how you live.”
It was my first time at a jewelry store, so everything was unfamiliar.
I just stood still as Russ talked to the shopkeeper.
“Couldn’t you just come and see it? Do I have to ask?”
“Yes. It’s good to get permission. If you look at it, all the precious metals come out, right?”
As she said, all her precious metals were made available to her if she stretched out her hand.
“Of course, all precious metals are enchanted, so if you try to steal it, you’ll get in trouble, but the shopkeeper is uncomfortable, so I’m telling you what I want.”
“I see.”
“That’s all right, now take your pick.”
“Do I choose?”
“Then~. It’s a gift, but the person concerned has to choose.”
She glanced at her.
“But it’s a friendship ring. Neither will you.”
“Of course!”
“Is it okay if I choose?”
“I like that you like me.”
At her words, I nodded and looked through the rings.
And after looking around a few times, she picked up the ring that kept blinding her eyes.
It was a thin ring. Just a round ring with nothing engraved in a simple shape.
The light was muddy and it didn’t look like silver.
It was the cheapest looking ring, a bit cheap.
“.. Uh.. That?”
Contrary to what he said earlier, Russ was disappointed with my choice.
I will have to wear it in the future, but I am disappointed.
Still, she didn’t want to burden her.
Besides, as the shop owner said earlier, I thought it was important to give such a ring a meaning.
“Yes.”
“I don’t think it’s even a silver ring… ? You can buy the more expensive one.”
“I like this. Let’s do this”
She looked at me and nodded her head reluctantly.
“… Okay.”
****
Time passed and night fell.
There were new rings on the thumb of my left hand and on the index finger of Russ’ left.
After buying the ring, I had a bit of a tight schedule.
Over lunch, Russ asked what she had been doing with Vienne this time, and said,
She told me everything from going to the orphanage to staying up all night.
Russ let her go for a walk to see if she drew inspiration from it, and she snorted.
Until nightfall, she wandered around and looked at the pretty places here and there.
After walking nonstop all day, it seemed that my tired body was coming back.
I remember Russ taking care of me in the morning so I could rest.
She asked if she could stay up all night just in case next time.
Then, I couldn’t handle her reaction, so I backed out again.
I made up my mind.
Take out the bullhorn as well, get rid of both of the wish tickets now, and the wish tickets from now on
I thought that I should never give it, or that I should give it only when I really can’t help it.
Russ, who had been refusing my request, said she had something she wanted to do by staying up all night.
Besides, she said that since she had already made the arrangements, she had to do it today.
“Russ. Now is the time to talk.”
There is a big difference between being told what to do and not doing it.
It’s as if you’re telling me to keep walking forward without telling you where to go
Power tends to drain a little faster.
That’s why I wanted to know what her goal was, so I kept begging her.
She still doesn’t talk.
“Will you let me know when I get to your house? In fact, I prepared everything while you sleep.”
I didn’t know what it was, but it seemed like I was expecting it. He was smiling.
Okay. Well now that it’s all over
We had already arrived in front of my accommodation.
I greeted the innkeeper and went up to my room.
What the hell did I prepare while I was sleeping?
-Kikkik
-Tick
I open the door to the room and turn on the magic light.
My messy room, it was the same.
“Russ, tell me now.”
Looking back at her, she runs to her magic food box, just as she is with her smile.
She opens her box and she pulls out a large bottle.
…Alcohol?
“It’s Chis. Let’s have a drink after a long time It’s all night tonight.”
She licked her lips
****
It is today. One step forward today.
I thought about it.
Starchis looks tough so we can finish this all up.
It is to go ahead of other years and make a fait accompli.
A chance to solve my ever-rising desire and become a lover with him.
Trying to make it now.
Judging from Starchis’ expression, it would be difficult to accept the right to wish any more in the future.
It means that you don’t know when the opportunity to spend the night together will come again.
So that’s it now.
If you succeed, you can tell Mr. Vienne and Lily not to come any closer, and that way you can give Stachis some leeway.
If I become his lover his, I will never make it difficult for him.
Of course, if you ask me if I don’t like the Starchis Treaty, it doesn’t.
Paragraph 1, do not become Starchis’s lover.
And item 4, not secretly coveting his lips or genitals his, is caught.
However, paragraph 1 is just a façade.
Everyone who signed the treaty would break it if they got the chance, so I decided not to worry about that.
Paragraph 4 is a promise not to covet his private parts his, but what if it’s not me who is coveting?
There’s no saying that you shouldn’t be greedy.
If he wants to be in contact with his private parts rather than me, which one of the other two can refuse?
Never.
So if you tell them, ‘Starchis wanted me first’, they won’t have anything to say.
I’ll probably tremble in anger.
I was already looking forward to it.
The important thing in this plan is that I don’t attack him first.
If I get him drunk and I eat him, and that stresses him out and Starchis starts avoiding me, it’s all over.
You will be estranged from Starch, and you will be pinned down by the other two for breaking the pact.
But if he eats me first… Drunk or whatever, the initiative falls to me.
Starchis, who has a strong sense of responsibility, will have no choice but to become a lover with me.
So to sum it up, it’s him, not me, who shakes your waist when you’re in a relationship.
It was perfect.
I looked at him with slightly dizzy eyes as I repeated the plan in my head.
I had already fed him so much that his eyes were open.
It’s been a long time since the drinking party continued.
I ate a lot to feed him, but I was holding on tight because I couldn’t miss the opportunity of a lifetime.
Also, he was getting drunk more easily than I thought.
I never thought it would help that he was tired.
For the first time, he thanked Mr. Bien and Lily for making him tired in his heart his.
You’re getting a hard punishment for him.
Stachis murmured.
“Hmm… Russ…? Will you… Drink more…? I’m tough-“
“-Jam…!”
Instead of answering, I handed him a glass with my tongue hanging out.
He looks at me for a moment and drinks his glass his.
“Big..”
It was a strong drink.
Because he used to ask for the strongest drink when he was buying alcohol.
It was as requested.
“Russ…? I no longer-“
“-Sssss!”
He takes the cup he holds out to his mouth and drinks it.
He was now opening his mouth again with his eyes closed.
His thirst his seemed dry.
It was notable that he was not sober.
It is now.
“Chis yum… I’ll get you some water… “
Naturally, taking advantage of the situation where he seems thirsty.
I, too, pretended to be drunk and stumbled to my feet.
-Tabaktabak
And as I passed him to draw water, I fell on him pretending it was a mistake.
“Ah..!”
The posture of being successfully brought into his bosom was created.
“Uh… Russ…? It’s okay? You must have drunk a lot… “
His tongue-tied voice his is so cute that I can barely contain myself from laughing.
“… Shall we just eat and sleep…? Did you write the wish ticket…?”
He asks, but instead of answering, I look up at him with the most relaxed eyes.
“…”
“…”
And he closed his eyes and said nothing.
It was something I had planned, but my heart was beating.
My blushing face will be covered by my already blushing face.
Don’t be ashamed of your facial expression.
Just don’t avoid your eyes.
For my goals, I tried to ignore the signals my body was giving me.
As I looked up at him, a reaction came.
For a long time, we looked at each other so awkwardly without saying a word
He was ashamed and averted his eyes.
Thump thump
He is ashamed of me.
I almost pounced on him at that moment, but I barely endured even that.
Let out a big sigh.
So that my breath can touch his face his.
He flinches as the breath touches him.
Still not moving any more.
I was impatient and helped out with a word.
“Is it Chis… ?”
Then, to make her look cute, she raised her fist and slightly covered her mouth.
And it didn’t take long to realize it was a mistake.
Chis’ eyes saw the ring on my hand.
Then he spoke to me like someone who had just woken up.
“Ah. Gee… Sorry. I was drunk and my reaction was delayed for a while.”
Then he picked me up and pushed me out of his arms.
I felt like my heart was pounding and falling when the target I thought I had caught was slipped out of my grasp.
Why did I make such a mistake… I felt resentful of myself for raising my left hand.
But I couldn’t back down from here. This was just the first chance.
Feed more, and the opportunity will come.
So to him
Feed,
Feed,
Fed
I continued to eat after him.
It seemed like I would lose my memory at this rate.
Just when he thought it was time to dash again, Starchis dropped his glass.
-Clink!!
Then he fell forward and fell from his chair, banging his head on the table.
Bang. Dump.
The noise was so loud that I forgot to act and got up to approach him.
“Is it Chis?”
He was fast asleep with a hump on his head.
