Chapter 178 \nOperation To Win Sheila\n「Yosh, now I’m going to send in the cold air」
「Ou!」
After I see Torr nod, I hold my hand toward Asmo's house window and cast Ice magic.
Immediately after that, cold air was released from my hand.
It becomes hot as the hot air outside is entering the house since the window is open, but then the surroundings immediately turn cold because I used the Ice magic.
In order to make the cold air enter through the gap in the window, I slightly lowered the temperature of the cold air then I strongly release it. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
After doing that, I think it probably happens after waiting around five minutes.
「……eh? Somehow it feels cool?」
From the direction of Asmo’s house, I began to hear a faint voice and someone’s footsteps as they move around.
It’s probably Sheila-san as she notices the room getting cooler due to the cold air seeping in. I feel the presence of someone who seems like Sheila-san slowly approaching us.
「Yosh, this should be enough to draw her attention. We’re withdrawing」
「Ou!」
After I stopped the Ice magic and backed away, Torr deftly closes the window.
「「…………」」
Then we stand still press our ears against the window and stop moving to listen and search for any sign or voice from the other side.
Immediately after, we can faintly hear Sheila-san’s voice who is probably inside Asmo’s house.
「Ahh! The place around the window-side is somehow cool !」
It was Sheila-san’s delighted voice.
Apparently, she clearly notices the cool temperature around the window-side.
We can hear the sound of movements quite clearly and it was undoubtedly Sheila-san.
Yosh, if she’s going to come to a window-side then it’s this one.\n
Torr and I – who were holding our breath – grinned and stand up. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Ohー, as expected from Al! To be able to produce cold air using Ice magic! My house has become so cool because of that!」
「You can’t take a peaceful nap inside a hot room after all. In the end, being able to comfortably spend your time inside a cool room is the best!」
「Being able to feel such cool air, and enjoying iced water in summer is a luxury, isn’t it! Right, Asmo!」
「Un, you’re right. It’s several times cooler here than at my place」
Then, we deliberately talk to each other in a volume where it can be heard by Sheila-san, who is probably next door.
 
It might sound somewhat forced, but the heavenly situation here should probably be relayed to her by now.
As we look toward the window and talk to each other like that, we can hear noisy footsteps coming from Asmo’s house.
「………neechan, is probably picking a stick to open the window right now」
Asmo said, and several seconds later we can hear the sound of Asmo’s house window being opened, then even Torr’s house window is also opened.
Being hit by a stick, the window on this side opened and Sheila-san’s face appeared.
「Aah! Torr’s house is so cool! It must be because of Alfried-sama’s magic, right! I also want to go there!」
Sheila-san babbled while puffing up her cheeks.
She looks cute doing that, perhaps it’s because she has a soft, gentle face.
It’s quite unusual for a girl to still look good despite puffing her cheeks like this.
「Neechan, do you want to come here?」
「Un! I mean, it’s so enviable that only that place is so cool～. I’m fine if you just let me stay in the corner, let me go over there!」
Sheila-san honestly expressed her envy when Asmo asked.
「So my neechan said, is it okay with you guys?」
「I’m fine with that. Al is also fine with that, right?」
「Sheila-san is not a stranger anyway. Of course it’s fine」
「Yay! Thank you! Well then, I’ll go over there now!」
Hearing our conversation, Sheila-san happily smiles and skillfully handled the stick to close the window on this side. Then we can hear the sound of her closing the window of her house and he footsteps moving inside the house. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com \n「Yossha! The first step is more or less clear!」
 
「Yeah」
 
◆
「Haa～, so cool. It’s like being in heaven here～」
Sheila-san – who had entered the living room – said pleasantly and closed her eyes.
She’s probably fully enjoying the pleasant cold air drifting inside the room with her whole body.
Inside a house in a summer where there are no cooler nor electric fan. No matter how good the house ventilation in the countryside is, the fact that the heat is uncomfortable doesn’t change.
It would be natural that we wanted to spend their time in a place with a comfortable temperature as a human being.
「Sheila-san, I made iced water」
「Thank you very much! Alfried-sama!」
 
 \nWhen I place the newly created iced water on the table, Sheila-san came to our side happily and sit on the chair.
Then she picked up the cup made from Earth magic and drank it in one go.
「Puhaa! So good!」
Even if there’s the greatly desired iced water in front of her, she doesn’t make a coarse sound like us after drinking and I can feel something like feminine qualities about her. And even though she also said the same lines as us, she doesn’t seem like an old man at all.
Is this the so-called women’s femininity? I can tell that Eleonora-neesan has a low level of femininity since she doing a 「Kuhaa!」 instead of the 「Puhaa」.
「Do you want some more?」
「Yes! Thank you very much!」
Sheila-san held out the cup happily when I asked her. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com\nVisit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
 
And after I pour water into the cup with Water magic, Sheila-san drinks it slowly and in sips this time.She drinks the water as if to enjoy it, then exhales.
After that, she warmly smiles and says,
「Being able to drink iced water in summer with such a cool temperature is really a luxury, isn’t it」
「That’s right isn’t itー」
「Such luxury made me feels like I’m a young daughter of a noble house」
「Ice magic tools are valuable after all and not a lot of nobles possess them, so I guess it might feel like you’re living a luxurious life than low-rank nobles」
「Really!? So, I’m enjoying a more luxurious life than low-rank nobles right now. Alfried-sama is amazing being able to make such luxurious life in practice using magic～」
「That’s because magic exists to enrich your life after allー」
Talking with Sheila-san calms me down somehow.
There are no biting words used, and she doesn’t come up with something crazy in our conversation. She doesn’t drag me forcibly to train with her, and I’m sure that she probably wouldn’t start using violence even when she got angry.
My life might become more peaceful if I have someone with such a calm disposition like Sheila-san as my sister.
「Aah, the table is nice and cool～」
「It’s trueー. This perfect coolness feels good」
You can feel the pleasant coolness when you put your cheek on the table.
The coolness that doesn’t feel too cold is the best. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「……what’s with these two, they strangely began to settle down」
「They look like herbivores basking in the sun, aren’t they」
Tor and Asmo – who also placed their cheeks on the table – said those kinds of things.
Perhaps it’s because they strongly pressed their cheeks on the table since both of them also wanted to enjoy the coolness, but their face look terrible to look at. Please don’t look this way.
Since the scene in front of me is so terrible, I ask Sheila-san beside me while looking at her lovely face.
「Sheila-san, is the cold air good enough for you? Is it too cool?」
「It’s fine. It’s just the right temperature」
\nThat’s good then. Our plan to win her over will be ruined if she caught a cold after all.
「Alfried-sama is, really gentle and thoughtful, aren’t you. I can see now why Eleonora-sama would unconsciously behave like a spoiled child with you～」
As I was thinking that sort of thing, Sheila-san suddenly said something unexpected.
「……Eleonora-neesan depends on me? That was just her being willful in regards to me, isn’t she?」
「I’ve been hanging out and practicing with Eleonora-sama for a long time, but I’ve never seen her behaving like what you’ve been saying, Alfried-sama. I’m sure that it’s because if it's about Alfried-sama, that must be like, her real feeling of wanting to depend on you」
「……that’s because she thought that I’m lower in standing compared to Eleonora-neesan, isn’t it?」
Like, she thought that I will forgive anything she asked. No matter what I did later, she will just beat me at it. That’s because Eleonora-neesan is confident she can do that, right?
「Wroong. When one look at Alfried-sama and Eleonora-sama being together, they will understand that it is not so」
Sheila-san gently denies my doubt.
Hmーm, I wonder? I really don’t understand Eleonora-neesan.
Though it’s strange that I know exactly what her dislikes are, or what action she will take if I give her something.
「Conversely, the relationship between Ema and Torr is closer to what Alfried-sama is worried about――」
「That’s not the case! I won’t accept that my position is the lowest!」
Torr shouted as he hit the table as if he was trying to interrupt Sheila-san.
「But, it’s the truth」
「It’s not!」
Torr immediately denied Asmo’s muttered remark.
 Oh well, it’s not like I completely understand that feeling of wanting to deny such a thing. However, you will understand it after several years and it will be accepted as a matter of course.
It was just like me in my previous life. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Ahh, but this was supposed to be a secret. Alfried-sama, please forget about it」
Then Sheila-san said as if she suddenly remember it.
Is this person okay, I wonder?
Although we have to persuade her and make her keep mum, this makes rather me anxious……..
