The 29th day of the Wind month. As soon as I woke up in the morning, I told Lilia-san and the others what happened yesterday and apologized.
Of course, I was very embarrassed, but when I told her that I didn’t like bell peppers, how should I say this…… she was looking at with warm eyes…… making feel like burying my head into a hole.
Moreover, I can’t stop people from talking about it, and it quickly spread throughout the house…… By mid-afternoon, it was already a known fact in the mansion that I hated bell peppers.
The woman who works as the head chef was looking at like her child and asked “I know what food you don’t like, but do you have a food you like?”. I’ve learned that badly faking sothing can lead to bad things, so I honestly answered…… That I like burger steaks……
After hearing that, the head chef chuckled for a mont and then, said we were going to have burger steaks for dinner tonight, which made even more embarrassed.
I don’t know if it’s because of our age difference or if the head chef thinks of like a son, but I feel like she was thinking about an enjoyable mory.
I an, by saying that my favorite food is burger steaks and how I dislike bell peppers…… Does that an I have a child’s sense of taste? It’s kind of sad that I can’t deny it.
Incidentally, the ones who reacted kindly were Sieg-san and Lilia-san. Neither of them brought up my tastes, and just smiled at , saying that they were glad that I wasn’t sick.
However, there obviously are others who are amused…… Unnn, it goes without saying. It’s that useless maid.
[……Oya? If it isn’t the Bell pepper-hating Miyama-sama.]
[…………….]
Lunamaria-san looked really cheerful, as if she was a fish swimming in the waters, and she was like this when we just happened to pass each in the hallway.
The expression on her face as she looked at with a grin feels as if she holds the power of gods in her hands, looking outrageously annoying…… but I know that she would have more fun when she sees that I’m annoyed.
So, I decided to try a slightly different approach as a way to fight back.
[……Speaking of which, I just overheard this from sowhere…… but I heard sothing about Lunamaria-san not being good with bugs……]
[……W- Why are you……]
And apparently, it worked better than I thought it would, as the smile on Lunamaria-san’s lips disappeared and she looked shaken.
[No, it’s not like I have anything I’m trying to say anything by ntioning that but……]
[……M- Miyama-sama, c- can we talk about sothing unrelated to that?]
[Eh? Yes.]
[No, you see, I think it’s inevitable that we all have things we dislike and things we’re not good at. I think that’s an inevitable part of our personality and I don’t think it’s sothing that we should be ashad of.]
[……I see, I guess you’re right.]
I was tempted to tell her to rember the expression she just had and the words she spoke just now, but I held back and waited for what Lunamaria-san would say next.
Probably because I thought it would be more beneficial for .
[Therefore, it would be unbecoming of a human being to show it off as a shortcoming…… S- So, how about the both of us put it that way?]
[……You really hate bugs that much huh……]
[So much that I hope those creatures perish from this world.]
[……I- I see.]
In other words, Lunamaria-san was suggesting that …… From now on, Lunamaria-san will not make fun of my dislike of bell peppers. In return, she’s suggesting that I also not make fun of Lunamaria-san’s dislike of bugs…… just like so kind of truce agreent.
It seems that she hates bugs more than I thought…… Perhaps, Lunamaria-san was afraid that I’ll get angry and catch so bugs.
[I understand what you’re saying. We wouldn’t interfere with each other about these matters…… How about it?]
[I have no objection to it.]
Anyway, I’m also feeling embarrassed about being teased for my childish tastes, so I’ll take Lunamaria-san’s suggestion.
And thus, this is how a strange sense of solidarity is created between and Lunamaria-san……
Other than Lunamaria-san, it seems that there was also soone else who seed to enjoy hearing about my dislike of bell peppers.
[Fufu, Kaito-senpai also had quite the childish side of you huh…… It’s kind of cute.]
[Ugghhh…… H- Hina-chan? That’s not a complint, you know?]
Hina-chan happily said that while we’re in the middle of our run, sothing we do sotis, and she seems to be having fun since this morning.
However, I don’t feel like she’s teasing like Lunamaria-san, but rather, she’s genuinely having fun, knowing an unexpected side of .
But please rember this, telling a man that he’s cute isn’t a complim…… No, it may be a complint to so guys out there, but it’s not a complint to .
[Ahaha, sorry. However, when a guy who seems like he can do everything, seeing how they can’t do sothing or are weak against sothing, it’s great since they make him look more approachable.]
[H- Hmmm. I- Is that so?]
[Ahh, but I feel like there are more things that Kaito-senpai can’t do though. You’re sotis unreliable.]
[Gafhuuaa!? H- Hina-chan…… That’s quite harsh of you……]
Hina-chan’s words, which she happily told , did super effective damage to my tiny pride. I feel like it even dealt a critical hit on ……
Maybe this is proof that we’ve grown closer to each other, but I feel like my two kouhais have been quite unlenient of lately…… It seems that it was impossible for to have the position of being a reliable senpai.
As I was thinking that, Hina-chan shook her hands, looking slightly flustered, and continued speaking.
[Ah, it’s not like I’m making fun of senpai or anything like that, okay? Rather, it’s just because I’m rather familiar with senpai and I, ummm, like you quite a bit.]
[……Eh?]
[……It’s true that there are a lot of things that Kaito-senpai can’t do, but just as much…… No. You have much, muuuucch, more good things about you. You’re gentle and warm, and it was really fun being with you…… Plus, when it matters, you look really cool…… That’s why I think that you’re a wonderful person.]
[……T- Thanks.]
Hina-chan’s cheeks were as red as apples when she told that, and the bashful smile on her lips was very bright.
[E- Excuse !? I- I ended up saying sothing strange! Co on, let’s get pumped up and run!]
[Ehh? Ah, wait!? Too fast!?]
[Hey, co on, Kaito-senpai~~ You’ll be left behind, you know~~]
[W- Wait…… As expected, running that fast is……]
Seeing Hina-chan happily speeding up, I hurriedly followed her, astonished at her speed which is probably even faster than my full sprint.
U- Unnn. She’s that fast even without Body Enhancing Magic…… I guess I really can’t beco a reliable senpai. Well, you could say that it is like …… I guess?
It was the 30th Day of the Wind month. It was on this morning of the last day of the Wind month when that incident occurred.
As I languidly waited for the delicious breakfast to be brought to , the door of the dining hall opened with a bang before my breakfast arrived.
[Kai-chan! It’s !!!]
[……Oh, good morning. Fate-san.]
The one who opened and appeared at the door was the problem child of the God Realm…… It was Fate-san, Alice’s twin who was just as no-good as her, and she would irregularly co here after “skipping work”.
Fate-san always appears out of the blue, and I guess she has also co to visit today because she skipped work.
When I returned her greeting with that in mind, Fate-san said sothing unexpected with a cute smile on her face.
[Unnn, good morning. Kai-chan…… This might be abrupt, but for now, co to the “Hydra Kingdom” with !!!]
[……Huh? No, what are you suddenly……]
[Thank you! I knew Kai-chan would willingly agree with !]
[Ehh? No, no!? I still haven’t…… Wait, why are you grabbing my arm!? Also, what’s with that magic circle!?]
[Then, let’s go~~]
[Whaa!?]
Fate-san didn’t care about any of my responses…… No, it feels as if she was converting what I said into sothing outrageously convenient for her, and grabbing my hand, she invoked a magic circle…… an unmistakably Teleportation magic circle…… and my body was engulfed in light.
Dear Mom, Dad——— The day after I confessed my dislike for Bell Peppers, Fate-san ca to visit without notice, forcibly bringing to Hydra Kingdom. I have no idea why this is happening or what’s going to happen from now on but…… Could you at least——– listen when soone is speaking!?
After watching the montary event of Kaito being taken away, Lilia and the others began eating breakfast that had been brought to them as if nothing particularly happened.
[……Haahhh…… It’s happening again huh……]
[Well, it’s Kaito-san after all.]
[It’s Kaito-senpai after all.]
[It’s because it’s Miyama-sama……]
Looking at Lilia-san, who lets out a huge sigh while saring jam on a bread, Aoi, Hina and Lunamaria mutter as if to say that it’s the sa as usual.
Hearing their words, Lilia’s shoulders slumped down before lightly waving her hand to give instructions.
[……Please bring my stomach pills.]
[My Lady, I don’t think drinking stomach pills before sothing happens would do anything……]
[It’s fine…… In the end, he would probably go back after befriending the king over there…… In the end, I would probably feel really troubled again……]
[……It’s frightening how I can’t deny what you said at all.]
