As the endless darkness in his vision retreated to both sides, Alain could clearly see a single point of light appear in the blackness below his feet. He pulled the two girls in his left and right hands into his embrace, preparing for impact. Taking advantage of this final intermission, he re-gripped the greatsword slung behind his back. Alain assessed his physical and ntal state.
Physically, most of the corrosive effects from entering the monster's black water had been blocked by Safety Protection, yet a continuous stinging pain remained. And the target of this stinging pain was not just his skin, but also his spirit. Right now, Alain was in so much pain he felt like sleeping.
"Alain." His bro clearly sensed sothing, casting a worried gaze his way. Little Mita also anxiously clutched his collar.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine when we get there." Deeply exhaling, he took a fierce whiff of Millie's fragrance. Alain felt slightly more spirited.
A few seconds later, the darkness completely receded, and light enveloped the three of them. The rapid descent gradually slowed. Until, like a feather touching water, they landed lightly in a room. Alain vigilantly scanned his surroundings, his grip on the two tightening.
Looking around the room, it appeared very empty compared to a typical Mita's room. The furniture, however, was all there: a sofa, a vase, and a life-sized puppet placed in the corner. The puppet seed to have originally been brown as its main color, but its body's surface showed a hint of moldy black spots. Judging by its height, it should be about the sa as Mita.
His gaze shifted to the side. At the other end of the puppet seed to be a model of a Mita room. There, it would occasionally emit characters that Alain couldn't quite understand: [Hey. Big guy, look here.]
"....." Let's ignore it for now.
At the sa mont, the number on Alain's ring changed: the version number changed from 1.3B to 1.15.
"Looks like we've reached our destination." He breathed a sigh of relief; for now, there should be no danger.
It wasn't until the three of them stepped onto solid ground that Alain let go of the two.
"Where is this?" Millie straightened her hat and gloves, curiously looking around. And Miluo, having just escaped her cage, seed interested in everything outside of 1.3B. Finally, both of their gazes landed on the puppet in the corner.
"Er. For so reason, that thing looks a bit familiar." The hatted girl comnted, a drop of cold sweat inexplicably rolling down her forehead. I feel... a chill down my back.
"Sister Millie, have you seen it before?" The girl tugged at her sleeve, receiving a not-so-certain reply from the latter. "I haven't... I think? I just feel like there's so connection."
"I see." Little Mita thought she should ask that question. She first glanced at Alain and found him at another door, doing sothing unknown. Good! Alain isn't paying attention over here for now.
Thus, her eyes sparkling, she focused on Millie's face.
"Er? What's wrong all of a sudden?" The hatted girl was still puzzled. Her next words made her suspect this Little Mita was Alain in disguise.
"Sister Millie, you should kiss Alain often, right?"
"???" How did you co to that conclusion? Millie thought. She and Alain were purely good bros. Kissing and such, they had never done it. In fact, until now, they had only held hands. She was about to deny it when Miluo spoke first.
"Sorry. Asking this kind of question so suddenly must be very abrupt, right? It's because I always see Sister Millie as very mature and independent. Like a big sister. If you don't want to answer, then forget it!"
"..." M-Mature? Independent? Big sister?! Millie muttered these three rarely heard words in her heart. She never thought these words could actually be used on her—Millie?! Th-This is just like. my reliable best friend!
"Hmph hmph. You saw through . There's no helping it, maybe this is just my essence. It just slipped out accidentally." Millie was a bit embarrassed, but felt very comfortable. Let's just admit it for now, and let my future self bear the consequences! Heh! I'm a genius!
Wait, what was the question Miluo asked at the beginning?
"Then, can Sister Millie teach the techniques for kissing Alain?" The girl took out a small notebook and a pen from sowhere, ready to listen studiously to Millie's upcoming teachings.
"?" Kissing? Kissing, kissing refers to. that thing Alain and Crazy Mita did before?
Millie couldn't help but feel panicked. How would she know how to do that?! She was originally a Mita who didn't even have a player, guarding her boudoir alone. She had only t Alain a few days ago. Even with contact, it had only developed to holding hands at most. In fact, not long ago, she was even considered "uncompetitive" by Crazy Mita. Thinking of this, Millie's heart was shrouded in clouds.
The hatted girl's gaze focused on the serious girl's face. Could it be. Miluo is deliberately mocking her? Speaking of kissing, she still has her first kiss, but Miluo had even stuck out her tongue before. Thinking this way, her experience in this area was even less than a little girl's. Crazy Mita seed to have realized this point, handing herself over to Alain, and turning her vigilance towards Miluo. A single Miluo is more competitive than her? Millie, considering this, couldn't help but feel crestfallen.
"Um. Sister Millie?" Little Mita's words from the side pulled her back from her thoughts.
"Ah, ah! That thing, kissing. Of course I know how!" What am I saying?! Facing Miluo's increasingly sparkling eyes, the hatted girl's lips trembled.
"J-Just a re kiss or whatever. I've kissed countless tis!" Stop talking, stop talking! Stop it already!
"Hah. Little Alain, he loses every ti!" N-No more.
Millie looked at the girl's sparkling starry eyes; that "never kissed before" was completely unspeakable.
Alain, on the side, heard his na being called and turned to look at her.
"What's wrong, bro? Have you realized my fragrance?"
"Ha, hahaha! Of course! You're so fragrant!"
"?" Alain's puzzled gaze seed to say, "Have you been possessed by Prankster Mita again?"
"Alright Alain! You first, you go play on the side for a while, I need to talk to Miluo for a bit!"
"...So strange."
After sending Alain away, Millie breathed a sigh of relief. For her to say those embarrassing things in front of Alain, the person involved, was still.
"Sister Millie, can you tell ?"
"!" Seeing the girl's puzzled gaze look over again, Millie could only brace herself.
"Of-Of course!"
