As soon as I returned home, I climbed over the wall. I mean, the seperate building wall. It was already time for Captain Jullius to return home, and maybe it was because of the piled up stress from the banquet, but I missed him so bad. If I look at Captainās face and rub his head a bit, I think Iāll certainly feel better.\n\nWhen I thought about it, my heart became impatient, and I climbed over the wall without turning back. As soon as I alighted from the carriage, I came running over and, even though my dress was cumbersome, it wasnāt to the point where I couldnāt at least climb over one wall. After crossing over the girlish garden, walking onto the terrace, then jerking the glass door open, almost immediately, the door connecting the living room and the bathroom opened.\n\nāRoel?ā\n\nBeyond the bathroom door, Captain Jullius tilted his head and looked at me. It looked like he had just bathed and was getting dressed when he sensed somebodyās presence and came out. His wet black hair stuck to his forehead and nape, and the white shirt, which hadnāt yet been buttoned, was only loosely worn. Even the shirt was getting wet in some places due to drops of water falling from his hair. He was wearing his pants properly, though.\n\nWhen I saw that sloppy figure, suddenly the content of the painting book that I read before flashed through my mind. There was also a beauty who was loosely dressed and had her breasts entirely exposed. Of course, Captain Jullius didnāt wear something like a thin negligee with shoulder straps, so his bare skin could only be seen through the gap in the middle of the shirt, but still.\n\nāJullius.ā\n\nAnyway, because he was in that kind of state, I felt a strong urge that I had to do something about it. But what should I do? As I was thinking about just what I should do with that man, Captain approached me while roughly drying up his hair with a dry towel.\n\nāIs the banquet over?ā\n\nāAh, yes. It wasnāt that fun.ā\n\nThe weather was hot rather than cold, but it was still nighttime, so I closed the glass door first. If youāre hit by the wind when youāre still wet, you might catch a cold. Even if Captain is strong, you never know what will happen.\n\nāI couldnāt even eat properly. I went together with Sieg so it goes without saying.ā\n\nāI have cookies. Do you want some?ā\n\nāYes.ā\n\nDespite barely eating dinner, I didnāt really have much appetite, but I nodded anyway before flopping down onto the sofa. Captain Jullius put the towel that was used to dry his hair around his neck then opened the cabinet and took out a glass jar. Inside the glass jar, which was as big as a childās head, were cookies baked with mixed dried fruits, covered with plenty of powdered sugar. Now that I saw it, I could feel my appetite growing.\n\nCaptain sat beside me while holding the cookie jar. I was staring at him as he used his hand to twist open the jar lid and put in his long fingers to pick up a cookie. Then, a small, round bite-sized cookie was offered to me.\n\nāHereāā\n\nI swiftly chomped down on the cookie, even grazing his fingers that were holding onto the cookie. His thumb which was holding the bottom managed to slip away, but his index finger was captured by my teeth and stiffened along with the person. Captain Jullius blinked his wide-open pale gray eyes and asked carefully.\n\nāā¦ Do you also want to eat my fingers?ā\n\nIāve told you before that I donāt eat people. But, to reply to him, I have to open my mouth. I was thinking about what to do, but if itās Captain, even if I were to say that I really wanted to eat his fingers, he would just submissively offer them, so I opened my mouth. His finger slipped away through the gap between my lips, leaving only a cookie that was slightly melted by my saliva.\n\nāI have no intention of eating you. Snacks are more delicious than human meat.ā\n\nThough I have never tried eating it, Iām sure of it.\n\nāBut you bit me, so I asked, just in case.ā\n\nāJust because I bite you doesnāt mean Iām eating you up. I didnāt even leave a tooth mark.ā\n
If I were planning to eat you for real, I would have bitten you very hard, to the point where your bones were exposed. Human teeth are unexpectedly strong, enough to bite off at least one finger. This time, I personally took out another cookie and ate it. I could taste the sweetness that was left in my mouth with my tongue, and I looked at the captain. Okay, then nowā¦\n\nāCan I touch your chest?ā\n\nIn the novel, the man touched the womanās breasts, but it should be okay to do the opposite. At my words, Captain Jullius became more embarrassed than before and stiffened again. He looks like a shocked rabbit. I mean, he doesnāt need to be cuter because heās cute even when he stays still.\n\nāThā¦.atā¦.ā\n\nāOthers seem to do something like that.ā\n\nFondling your partnerās breasts. Ah, needless to say, Captain is a man, so I canāt fondle him. Actually, if Iām going to follow what was inside the romance book for men, first of all, Captain Jullius has to become a wicked lord and have a mistressā¦ No, this isnāt the point. Well, of course I donāt have to follow all the settings. I wonder if itāll work if we just do something similar. I didnāt read what I was supposed to do after touching his chest, so to start, Iāll just touch his chest today.\n\nāYouāreā¦ doing it? But, as far as I knowā¦..ā\n\nāAs far as you know?ā\n\nāā¦ā¦ā\n\nThe captain seemed to be sorting through his memory, but in the end he couldnāt continue his words. Anyhow, it didnāt seem like he recalled anything. Then again, I also donāt know much about such a thing, but I think Captain Jullius knows even less. I know to some extent that men like womenās breasts and butts.\n\nāOr do you want to touch my breasts?ā\n\nAnyway, donāt you just have to touch it? According to the book, this was right. Captain Jullius shook his head hurriedly at my suggestion.\n\nāNo, after all weāre stillā¦..ā\n\nāEveryone does it, though? They donāt even have to be their betrothed; they can even just touch the person theyāve fallen in love with.ā\n\nThatās what the painting book said. Meanwhile, based on my experience reading a womenās novel, the beauty is obviously the female lead, and later, sheāll fall in love with the male lead. In other words, it means that we might fall in love if we start by touching othersā chests.\n\nāSo choose whose chest should be touched.ā\n\nAt my urging, he didnāt know what to do, so he stammeringly opened his mouth.\n\nāThatā¦. m, mineā¦..?ā\n\nAll right, I got his consent.\n\n\n\n\n\nTo be honest, things like a manās chest, Iāve seen a lot of them. Because on hot summer days, there would be about two holy knights on the training ground who took off their shirts and rested in the shade. Even if it wasnāt summer, sometimes there were some guys who completely exposed their upper body without hesitation, if they felt like they were sweating a lot when training. In fact, Iāve seen a manās chest much more than a womanās breasts. Regarding a womanās breasts, Iād only ever seen my own, and I only saw them briefly when I was taking a bath. Thatās why, I have more experience in seeing a manās chest, in terms of the length of time and how many times Iāve seen it.\n\nSo, Iām used to it. Iāve seen it a lot! Thereās nothing new! Iāve even touched it before! Well, to be more accurate, it was more of a punch, but anyway, I did touch it with my hand.\n\nIn other words, Captain Julliusās chest isnāt a big deal. Itās even my second time, so itās really not a big deal.\n\nāā¦ Ahem.ā\n\nI felt like I was getting a bit nervous. Captain being nervous seemed to be affecting me somehow. At first glance, it looked like he wasnāt shy but scared, because he couldnāt bring himself to keep looking this way, and he turned his head slightly to the left and lowered his eyes. Wellā¦ how should I put it, itās as if I have become a perverted old man who is sexually harassing an innocent maiden. Though in reality Iām younger than him. I mean, Iām in a much younger body now! If you look at me, Iām the innocent maiden. If someone who doesnāt know the real story were to see this, would they think that the strongest leader of a knight squad is being sexually harassed by an innocent noble lady? Needless to say, since I got his consent to do this, my current act is absolutely not sexual harassment. This skinship is done by mutual consent.\n\nI put my knee on Captain Julliusās lap like the last time I kissed him. But unlike before, I feel that the lavish dressā skirt is cumbersome. I think my chest and everything else are going to be buried in lace. So I just lower my leg again and sit sideways on Captainās lap.\n\nWhen I sat on his lap, his pale gray eyes secretly glanced down this way, but then he averted his eyes again.\n\nāLook here.ā\n\nWhy do you keep averting your eyes?\n\nāRight now.ā\n\nOnly after I spoke in a commanding tone, did his head, which was tilted to the side, turn to face me. If you have an anxious look like that, it looks like Iām doing something I shouldnāt do. I wonder just how much more do I have to do to make you become accustomed to this kind of thing so that you can take a little more initiative. I think Iāve been treating him well in my own wayā¦ havenāt I? So, I gave him a morning kiss and he also just gave me a kiss; then I accepted his morning kiss and I also just kissed him again. Anyway, up until now, weāve been doing morning kisses regularly. I did my best. We kissed a lot, but it looks like we lack affability. I nudged the edge of the slightly opened white shirt using the tip of my index finger and spoke in a gentle voice.\n\nāIf you donāt like it, itās okay to refuse it anytime.ā
