Chapter 127
CHAPTER 127 – CONFESSION
I let Iris sleep in that place .
She collapsed through exhaustion, but she doesn’t have any injuriesーーI an, I won’t let her have any, and she is breathing fine as well .
I thought that she would recover after resting for a while .
「Lent your strength, Eleanor」
『Yareyare, huh』
『Hikari will help too』
Eleanor who seed to say it can’t be helped, and Hikari who really want to help .
I placed my hand on the hilts of the mother and daughter Demon Swords while they’re in their sheathes .
With a strong and clear image, I released an aura .
It’s an aura that is a little different to up until now .
That aura is darker than black, and even more terrifying . An aura that reminisces everything sinister and disastrous .
I raised that auraーーspread it around, avoiding only Iris who is lying down .
It’s a silent ssage .
It’s a threat that says I shall make those who approach, experience sothing more terrifying than death .
Though it is alright to just kill the monsters when they appear .
If I get serious, I can chop those Akephaloses into two with their shields without even making a sound .
I can do it, but there is still a certain chance that I might fail .
Like the possibility that I might make a sound, or the possibility of making a shockwave .
To be sure that I can let Iris rest, I thought that the best way is to make a threat .
It beca silent .
That silence was like that of midnight when even the trees and grasses sleep .
And after watching Iris for a while, she woke up .
「……Kakeru?」
「You woke up?」
「……」
Iris saw the aura that I am releasing .
「……thank you」
The wise her understood its aning from the circumstances .
「Don’t mind it . Have you rested well?」
「Yeah . I’ve recovered pretty much」
「Good then」
I retracted the aura .
The surroundings returned to normal, and started to make cave-like sounds .
Suddenly, I noticed that Iris is staring at .
She is staring straight at with teary, hot eyes .
「What happened?」
「I am……a useless woman」
「What is it suddenly?」
「I fought with the Akephalos . It felt good . I was able to fight for Kakeru’s sake, and even that, with all of my strength……I fought only for Kakeru . That felt very fulfillingーーand really good」
「Isn’t that great?」
I also know about the excitent and heightened feelings from a fight .
I also know about the pleasure of embracing woman after thatーーbut that is a different topic .
That’s why, I said that, butーーIris slowly shook her head .
「It tasted like sweet honeyーーthat, is addictive . I thought that once I’ve tasted that, I won’t get satisfied by anything else . I thought I would throw away everything, my country, my status, everything . I thought that, I wanted to throw away everything else, and fight only for you . As a simple woman, and only yours……that’s, what I thought」
Iris made a desperate face, one that might cry anyti .
「Elder sister is amazing Even though she beca Kakeru’s woman, she’s able to preserve herself, and was able to act as one of Teresia’s Twin Flowers . She’s an amazing person, that I cannot beat at all」
Finally, tears started to drop from her eyes .
「But compared to that……I’m a useless woman」
『She looks very conflicted . A princess and a simple woman, as a public person and as she is in private . She’s too serious』
That’s what makes Iris lovely .
I stared at Iris and said .
「You’re saying it difficultly, but in short, you want to be my woman, right?」
「That is……that’s true」
Iris made a troubled face .
She had a face saying that it’s not wrong, but she can’t nod honestly .
『You summarized it too much』
“Kukuku”, I heard a pleasant laugh in the back of my head .
「What, was I wrong?」
「You’re not, but……」
「Then, isn’t it fine?」
「But……I do not befit Kakeru if I’m like that」
「Ha?」
「There are so many good won around Kakeru . Won who are not inferior compared elder sister . But compared to them, soone like ーーmugu!」
I stopped Iris’s wordsーーwith a kiss .
I made her close that mouth of hers that says so many things with my lips, and stopped her saying anything more .
At first, she was surprised and resisted .
However, I embraced her tightly so that she cannot escape .
I stole her lips for almost a minuteーーand to punish this obstinate person, I gave her plenty of kisses .
I then said to Iris after releasing her .
「Iris」
「W-What?」
「I’m the one who decides whether or not you are befitting of . It’s my decision whether or not you are going to be my woman . Got it?」
「Ah……un」
「And adding to that, if you think that you do not befit , rely on 」
「Eh?」
「Tell how you will suit . I’ll grant that」
「I can’t ask sothing like thatーー」
「I’ll do sothing about it」
I stopped her words halfway .
Iris’s expression changed so much it was interesting .
She got surprised, flushed her cheeks, and cald down .
「Kakeru’s words are amazing . They’re strong and reliably, it’s as if, they can solve anything」
「It’s not ‘as if’ . I’ll solve anything, I will」
「That’s true . If it’s Kakeru, he can do anything」
Iris let out a smile .
It’s not a negative smile that one shows when they give up or self-deprecate .
It’s a positive, calm, and strong smile that really look good on her .
「There was sothing wrong with , sorry」
「Hmm?」
「Thinking about it carefully, I didn’t need to worry about it so much . Fighting only for Kakeru and leading the masses as one of Teresia’s Twin Flowers without forgetting my status . I only need to do both」
『The idiot infected her huh, she’s slightly contradictingーーow!』
I stopped the unnecessary retort with a flick of a finger .
Sothing like contradictions or being idiotic, that doesn’t matter .
There is only one thing important .
That is, Iris looks better as a woman compared to the Iris before .
That’s all .
「Iris」
「Yes」
「I want to take you」
「I also want to be taken by Kakeru」
「Imdiately」
「Imdiately」
「Let’s go destroy Qushifos」
「Yeah!」
Iris strongly nodded .
She’s an unbelievably, good woman .
