I would go visit Ein-san and Jutia-san to promote the launch of our tea brand and to bring them some samples, so I went to Ein-sanās place first.
Prior to the visit, I sent out a hummingbird to inquire whether it would be alright to come and meet without revealing the details. Surprisingly, a swift āno problemā response came back, almost as if Ein-san had already guessed the reason for my visit.
[Welcome, Kaito-sama. I have been waiting.]
Upon arriving at Kuroās castle, the fact that Ein-san appeared with a beaming smile immediately suggests she fully understands my purpose here. Seeing the usually composed Ein-san with such a beaming smileā¦ā¦ This is just a guess, but after being taken away by Kuro by her last charge, she was definitely sternly warned and was never able to come to my house.
However, considering the amount of information she gathered about our new tea leaves in that short period, she probably knows about our new sugar cubes as well, so she must have been really looking forward to it.
[Come, Kaito-sama. Letās not stand around and chat hereā¦ā¦ Iāll show you to my room.]
[Yes. How should I say thisā¦ā¦ You seem to be really happy.]
[Iām ashamed to say this, but Iām aware I had been hasty. No, Iām not yet convinced that Kaito-samaās errand is what Iām expecting, but I still think that being the case is highly likelyā¦ā¦]
[Yeah, youāre all fine with that. Iāve probably brought exactly what Ein-san would want.]
[I see! That makes me very thrilled!]
Seeing Ein-san acting more innocent than usual, I couldnāt help but smile wryly and followed Ein-san as she guided me to her room. As usual, itās a simple room with few belongings, but I felt that the furniture had changed a bit since the last time I came.
[Arehh? These table and chairs are different from the ones I saw before.]
[Yes, I basically donāt use my private room, so I only had the bare minimum, but I did change some of the furniture to accommodate Kaito-sama when you come to visit.]
[I seeā¦ā¦ Ahh, letās cut to the chase. Here are the new tea leaves and sugar cubes. Also, these are notes about the tea leaves that Nebula wrote.]
[T- This isā¦ā¦ Fumuā¦ā¦ I see, by minimizing the changes in taste due to extraction time and quantity, even those lacking in technique can brew a delicious cup of teaā¦ā¦ Not only that, but by combining it with the tea leaves from before, one can significantly diversify the flavorā¦ā¦ I see! The high stability of these new tea leaves allows for bold adjustments without ruining the taste, making it possible to harmonize flavors. Itās wonderful! Iām always impressed by Nebula-samaās ideas. The expansiveness of the flavors is incredibly vast, and it can be altered in various ways depending on the skills of the brewerā¦ā¦]
After receiving the tea leaves and notes from me, Ain-san immediately started examining the notes with intense concentration, muttering to herself. After a while, a sparkle appeared in her eyes.
[Kaito-sama, please take a seat and wait. I will immediately go and brew you a pot of tea with these tea leaves.]
[Ah, yes. Iām looking forward to it.]
Soon after, Ein-san served me a cup of tea, which was as excellent as alwaysā¦ā¦ but I felt that it tasted so different from the tea I myself brewed and drank.
[These sugar cubes are fantastic too. Iāve never seen sugar of such good quality before.]
[Iām glad you liked it. And so, about our new brandā¦ā¦ Weāve named it āNiftyā, and it would be great if you could help us promote it.]
[Yes, please leave it to me. These tea leaves and sugar cubes are something that all maids should know about. I will make sure to convey about this to themā¦ā¦ Ummā¦ā¦ I know this is greedy of me to askā¦ā¦ but if you could sell them to me on a regular basis, just like we did beforeā¦ā¦]
[Ahh, about thatā¦ā¦ I thought Ein-san would definitely want it, so I got permission from Nebula and Anima to bring this here.]
When she saw what I took out of the magic box as I said those words, Ein-sanās eyes widened.
[Yes, the raw materialsā source, the tea tree and sugarcane. Unlike the tea leaves before, it seems that these can be easily cultivated. With this, I thought we could ask someone like Raz-san to secure as much as you needā¦ā¦ Ahh, as I mentioned earlier, Iāve obtained permission from Nebula and Anima. As long as you ensure not to sell them, thereās no issue with using those for personal purposesā¦ā¦]
[Kaito-samaā¦ā¦ My apologies, but could I ask you to stand up for a moment?]
Upon hearing my words about giving her tea trees and sugar cane as a present, Ein-san looked overcome with emotion, and then, for some reason, she asked me to stand up.
Confused about her intentions, I stood up, and out of nowhere, Ein-san approached me and suddenly hugged me tightly.
[Kaito-samaās thoughtfulness makes me very happy. Please excuse my impropriety, I couldnāt think of anything better to express my joyā¦ā¦ Itās a drawback that with my physique, this feels more of a hug even though I intended to embrace you closeā¦ā¦ but Kaito-sama, if itās not too uncomfortable, Iād be happy if youād allow me some time while weāre like thisā¦ā¦]
[Ahh, errr, itās not uncomfortableā¦ā¦ or rather, it feels comfortable butā¦ā¦ Errrā¦ā¦]
[I see. Then, until Kaito-sama is satisfiedā¦ā¦]
With those words, Ein-san, whose tension is at its peak, tightened her grip a bit more and hugged me even closer.
While my thoughts havenāt quite caught up with the situation, what I understand for the time being is that it feels soft, smells nice and just as I inadvertently blurted out earlier, itās undeniably comfortable.
If there was one problemā¦ā¦ Ein-san has completely left the decision of when to end to me, so Iām not quite sure when to bring this to a close.
Serious-senpai: [Eh? I thought this would lead to a more gag-like development, but all of a suddenā¦ā¦ It feels like Iāve been hit with a sugar caneā¦ā¦]
? ? ?: [Well, I wonder what kind of feeling that isā¦ā¦]
