Meanwhile, as Seiji and Hisashi had their conversation, Kaede had been hugging Seiji all this time.
Seiji indicated to her that it was probably time to let go of him. However, she still hugged him tightly and quietly without saying a word.
āYou scared her so much,ā Hisashi told him. āSeeing you shatter like that, we were under the impression that something terrible happened to you. She⦠worked her hardest to rush back as quickly as possible.ā
To be honest, he almost wanted to say āas if she was insaneā instead.
He had definitely witnessed for the first time just how much power a woman could explode with when she was worried about the person she loved⦠Even as her older brother, Hisashi was somewhat scared by his sister in such a condition.
It was because of Kaede going on a rampage that the remainder of the return process went unexpectedly smoothly.
Should he make a comment like āEven hell cannot stop a maiden in love?ā
āI apologize for worrying both of you.ā Seiji was apologetic about this.
āIām fine. However, she was truly worried to the point of almost breaking. Do a good job consoling her.ā Hisashi glanced over at Kaede before he left the dojo.
He called some Juumonji Group mafia underlings over to carry Zankita away and to clean up the scene.
Seiji was thinking about how to console Kaede when she slowly let go of her embrace.
After she let go, she pulled on Seijiās hand instead and silently led him out of the dojo to a private area.
āTell me the truth. How are you right now?ā she asked him.
āIām really quite fine. I already healed myself using magic.ā
āAre you really alright?ā
āOf course. Does it look like to you that Iām not alright?ā Seiji smiled.
Something flashed in Kaedeās eyes as she observed him.
āHow about you? Are you feeling alright?ā Seiji asked.
āIām alright⦠I feel basically the same as Brother Hisashi.ā
āThatās good, then. As long as thereās anything wrong with your body at all, let me know immediately.ā
Kaede blinked upon hearing this.
āNo matter what it is, youāll help me out, right?ā
Then let me tell you the honest truth, Iām not feeling that good right now⦠my heart is aching.ā
āI was so scared for you that my heart aches even now. Itās such a terrible feeling, and I want you to do something about it for me right now!ā Kaede said in a serious manner.
Seiji was rendered speechless.
It was fine to do something for her. However, the problem was just how to do something for her regarding this issue.
āWhat would you like for me to do for you, Sensei?ā
āI would like for you to sleep together with me, my dear student Seiji.ā
āThis test is far too difficult! I give up.ā
āItās not difficult at all. You sleep together with Reo-chan every night.ā
āErā¦ā Seiji received an unexpected cannon attack from this.
āYou definitely have the ability to pass this test. Youāre forbidden from giving up!ā Kaede looked directly at him.
āThis⦠Reo is only a child, and Sensei, youāreā¦ā
āItās just sleeping together. Age is meaningless!ā
āNo, age is important as wellā¦ā
āIn this test that Iām giving you, itās meaningless!ā
āThatās such an unreasonable testā¦ā
āStop resisting with your pitiful excuses, my dear student Seiji!ā
āI donāt think Iām making excusesā¦ā
The teacher-student roleplay continued for a while with Kaede attacking and Seiji defending.
Finally, Seiji agreed to lie down together with Kaede for a while on a bed. He felt that it still wasnāt alright to really sleep together with her.
Although Kaede wasnāt completely satisfied with this result, she was still happy because she considered it as making progress with Seiji.
She took Seiji back to her own bedroom in the Juumonji residence.
It was a clean and wide room with elegant and beautiful decorations. Kaede had a large bed with light pink blanketsā¦
Seiji couldnāt help but feel nervous upon seeing her bed despite the fact that it was only a promise to lie in bed together.
It would truly be a test for him to lie together with such a great beauty in her bed, especially since he knew that she was completely willing to have sex with him!
Seiji would never have accepted this request under normal conditions. However, he was currently injured, and Kaede had just returned from hell. She was fatigued both physically and mentally, so he figured that things wouldnāt develop to become anything R-18.
Actually, he was correct to think so.
The two of them finally realized just how tired they were after they got into Kaedeās bed together.
Kaede hugged Seiji and enjoyed his warmth and the sensation of contact. She gradually fell asleep as she closed her eyes, enjoying the feelings of safety and bliss in her heart.
Seiji who was also fatigued and injured soon found himself overtaken by drowsiness.
A soft bed with a warm and a beautiful lady right next to him⦠he supposed that heaven was supposed to be such a place of warmth and softness as well. Just closing his eyes made him feel like he wanted to sink into this feeling forever.
Really falling asleep here would be fine⦠right?
āI canāt⦠if I really fall asleepā¦ā
Seiji forced himself to remain awake and slowly got out of bed after he confirmed that Kaede was fast asleep. He covered her with her blanket and left her room.
āCanāt you just sleep together with her for one night?ā
Hisashi adjusted his eyeglasses after meeting with Seiji again and learning the situation from him.
āIād really like to do so as a man. However, I canāt do so because Iām a person of integrity!ā Seiji acted all proper.
āWhat about the honest truth?ā
āā¦I think that itāll become quite troublesome for me if I sleep with your sister like this, in more ways than oneā¦ā
Hisashi nodded in begrudging acceptance after staring at Seiji for a while.
āAlthough I can somewhat understand where youāre coming from, Iād still like to say that handsome guys should just go explode.ā
āIāve already āexplodedā once in hell.ā Seiji extended his palms and shrugged.
Hisashi was rendered speechless.
āEven exploding can increase a girlās favorability rating towards you? Such an excellent winner in life you are. As expected of my king.ā The otakuĀ mafia son chuckled after remaining silent for a few seconds.
Hisashi then revealed a much more relaxed expression than earlier after he finished laughing.
āNo words are sufficient to express my gratitude for Milordās assistance today. All I can do is swear my loyalty and pay you back however I can.ā
āVery good. Iām looking forward to it, my First Knight.ā
Michirou was currently hospitalized, and Zankita was going to be hospitalized now as well. Hisashi was the only one who could take on the heavy responsibility of running the Juumonji Group now. Things were likely to become quite busy and difficult for him during this time.
Seiji was unable to help Hisashi with any of this, so the best Seiji could do was crack a few jokes so that he would be able to relax.
Hisashi understood Seijiās intentions and remembered it in his heart.
To be honest, Hisashi really didnāt want to take over the role of being the Juumonji Groupās leader. However, this heavy responsibility was now upon him.
Still, this wasnāt something permanent. Once his older brother Zankita and father Michirou recovered, Hisashi would be able to have fun simply being an otaku again. Compared to his family business, he was far more interested in working under his ākingā on the dating sim.
āAs long as you need my service, I shall forever be your First Knight, Seiji,ā Hisashi thought that to himself.
Kaede who was quietly sleeping in her bedroom had a faint black aura appear around her. Intricate and complex runes slowly started appearing on her face.
Perhaps she sensed something unconsciously, as she turned around in her sleep.
The dark aura slowly gathered behind her back, gradually forming into a gigantic dark figureā¦
The next morning, Seiji who was fast asleep in a guest room at the Juumonji residence was woken up by his cell phone ringing.
He dazedly grabbed his cell phone, intending to turn off the alarm. However, he then realized that it wasnāt his alarm, but his ringtone instead!
He hurriedly rubbed his eyes in an attempt to wake himself up before he accepted the call.
However, Seiji woke up completely after hearing the content of the call. He immediately got out of bed and changed his clothes. He then left the guest room and hurried over to Kaedeās bedroom.
When Seiji arrived and entered, he paused in astonishment at the scene before him.
Her snow-white skin and elegant figure⦠well, he had seen her beautiful body once before during the board game that he played in his apartment before the Winter Snow Festival.
However, there was something else there that definitely wasnāt before!
Seiji was astonished at what was on the blonde beautyās backā¦
