Before a month, Yuan who was injured in the war with Roland Kingdom came back to the castle at last. He lost his muscles as expected, but he carried the same dignified presence that made me astonished.
āOh, Yuan. You are safe above all. When I heard the state of your injuries, I thought you collapsed so I had the forest searched but you were not found. How were you able to return?ā
āA G.o.ddess&h.e.l.lip;ā
āG.o.ddess?ā
āA G.o.ddess saved me. A beautiful G.o.ddess living in the forest.ā
Yuan proclaimed as if spellbound, and I became concerned whether he became crazy. Yuan is a straight-laced person so he practically never says anything untrue. And a G.o.ddess, he said? Itās enough that only that idiot becomes weird.
āThen that is a relief. Dinner is ready. Father will also be joining us. Prepare yourself.ā
āYes!ā
I turned back to my own room after saying that, with a bowing Yuan behind me.
And when we were chatting about national politics during dinner like always, I noticed that Yuan barely touched his food.
āWhatās wrong, Yuan? You barely touched your food. Itās your favorite steak.ā
āIāve been eating meals mainly consisting vegetables for a while, so I became somewhat surprised.ā
I said so and Yuan reached the steak, but he did not eat everything in the end.
Father and Carl did not look like they are worried but this is strange. I visited Yuanās room with a liquor at hand.
However, Yuan was not there. When I asked his retainer where Yuan went, he said that Yuan went somewhere on a horse.
This late at night!?
After suffering injuries, Yuanās head really became strange. I held my forehead and returned to my own room.
[Aine]
Dodododo~
I heard the sound of a horse shaking the ground at midnight. But Iām sleepy. I
couldnāt get up from the bed and just turned over and slept.
āBrother&h.e.l.lip;ā
Thereās a voice from the sky, huh~ just as I thought that, I felt my forehead get wet. I opened my eyes slightly, wondering what was that.
Isnāt this my little brother Yuan who just left last night!?
āYu-yuan! I thought you went back to the castle.ā
āI wanted to meet Aine -niisama . Ah, Niisama, itās the smell of Niisama &h.e.l.lip;ā
He said so and buried his face on my nape, sniffing my scent.
It was ticklish so I pushed aside Yuanās face by force and move my body to get up.
āYuan, what happened?ā
āWasnāt it Brother who said that I can come anytime? During dinner, I almost cried recalling Brotherās handmade dishes. Any other dishes not made by Brother tastes like sand.ā
Donāt speak ill of the castleās dishes that much!
As expected of the kingdomās people. Although Iām glad that my simple cooking is being praised.
Yuan invaded the futon without minding me. I thought his att.i.tude improved a lot recently, but it seems unlikely for him to think of me as a big brother.
Besides, heās trying to sleep while hugging me. Iām not a body pillow, you know?!
āAh, Brother. I canāt live without Elder Brother anymore.ā
āYuan, itās ticklish.ā
āBrother, brother.ā
What does Yuan think my nape is?
Isnāt he sniffing my smell too much since a while ago!? Do I stink?
Itās troublesome so I pretended not to notice and slept.
Like I said, Iām not a body pillo~~~~w!!
Well, whatever, I thought and proceeded to sleep. I dislike quarreling for each and everything!
[Yuan]
Brother was breathing deeply in his sleep.
I told you itās tediousĀ if I return to the castle! WithĀ that, I understood that heās leading a calm life, andĀ that place is a filthy world painted with authority.
I moved Brother closer to my chest. To think even his sleeping face is lovely&h.e.l.lip;
I couldnāt bear it and kissed Brother all over his face. His soft skin is irresistible.
From the start, Iām a person who do not care about gender. I only slept with the women Leichel -niisama sometimes hire for me. I do not get easily erect so women have to do it compulsorily.
And yet, Iām already like this just by being with Aine -niisama . It seems like Iāve become odd somehow.
I placed a kiss on his lips in the end, embraced Aine -niisama tightly once again and closed my eyes.
1. The words I translated as brother/elder brother is aniue. Should I retain is like niisama, too? Hmm, hmmm~
