When Arashi returned home, Joan of Arc hadn't returned with the imp yet, which saved him the trouble of explaining where he was going. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info took advantage of their return, Lan who was in a rare and good mood began to take the initiative to prepare dinner.

Although Arashi has never been very interested in Joan of Arc's cooking, in fact, even his own level is just that. In Lugnica's days, he only made a few dinners, and was robbed of his job by Ronnie, who couldn't stand it. When Alex also moved into the house, he took care of all the housework by himself.

Suddenly thinking of these two stupid disciples, it made Lan remember those lost friends when he was busy with green. Counting that they have been away from that world for more than ten days, I hope they will continue to exercise according to the methods they have taught.

When the distance becomes an existence that can never be shortened, the emotion called longing will become subtly softened by the action of this additive. The kitchen is located directly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the distance of the living room, and the stratus clouds that spread out like fish scales under the clear blue sky disappear above the window frame with a slight movement.

In the quiet room, everything seems quiet except for the sound of gas cooking. I don't know when it began, but Arashi became particularly enjoyable with this atmosphere. In a silent environment, even the tired heart becomes comfortable.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Joan of Arc led Kirizakura back home after a day of playing, and the little ghost with a little sweat stain on his forehead was much more cheerful than he had returned from the museum a few days ago.

Sakura, who was in a much better mood, deliberately walked up to Arashi and said, "I've worried you these days, Ernie sauce, I'm sorry." ”

"Oh, don't overthink it, I'm not worried about you. Arashi waved her hand casually, her eyes always falling on the food in front of her.

"Hey, hey. Joan of Arc, who let out a teasing laugh, pushed the whirring Sakura to the side of the bathroom, "Come, sister will help you take a bath." I'll leave it to you for dinner today, Arashi-sama. ”

"Yes. Arashi nodded at Joan of Arc, because of that unexpected discussion, the blonde girl also gained some trust from Arashi. Although nothing can be seen for the time being, the communication between the two is increasing in a visible form.

The bathroom space is not large, or this apartment for rent does not consider the life problem of two people taking a bath together. Fortunately, Sakura's size is still small, and even with Joan of Arc, she doesn't feel crowded.

"Did you have fun with Shirou in the park today?"

"Yes. Sakura, who didn't seem to be in the mood to chat, just silently lowered her head and let Joan of Arc fiddle with her body.

After both of them had washed their bodies, they soaked in the warm pool water together, and the white mist rising from the pool obscured their bodies in the limited space. Sakura stretched out her fingers to play with the water, and suddenly said to Joan of Arc, who was hugging her from behind, "Sister, does Ernie-chan hate me?"

"Why do you say that?" Holding the petite Sakura in her arms with both hands, Joan of Arc stretched out her finger to point at the girl's eyebrows like a big sister, revealing a friendly and gentle smile, "I think Arashi-sama likes you very much." ”

"Really? I love Ernie too. The little facial features stretched out like clouds, and then realized something, and Sakura glanced at Joan of Arc with embarrassed eyes, "Sakura likes Joan of Arc very much, too." ”

"Got it. Pampering Sakura's cheek with her hand, Joan of Arc smiled and looked at the existence that looked like her sister, "Why does Sakura think that Arashi-sama doesn't like you?"

"Because Ernie doesn't seem to like to talk to me very much. ”

"No, I think Arashi-sama is very gentle with Sakura. ”

Hearing this, Kirizakura just blinked silently, at this age, she didn't really understand what gentleness was. In response to Sakura's question, Joan of Arc just smiled and asked her, "Do you feel comfortable around Arashi-sama?"

"Well, staying by Ernie-chan's side will make you feel at ease, even if he doesn't talk to Sakura all the time, Sakura feels the same way. To this question, Sakura nodded without hesitation.

"That's Lan-sama's gentleness to you. Joan of Arc smiled and banged her head on Sakura Makiri's forehead, who seemed to understand.

"Hehe, sister, why do you keep calling Ernie sauce an adult? ”

"It's a secret. ”

"That Sakura told her sister a secret, whether the two of us exchanged well. Before Joan of Arc could agree, the impatient Sakura had already opened her mouth and said, "Sister, I'm not Ernie Chan's own sister." ”

"And then?" Although she had already guessed this fact, Joan of Arc, who did not move, smiled and made a surprised expression.

"Ernie Sauce fell from the sky like a hero one night, and he wasn't as small as he is now, he was taller than his sister that night! I watched Ernie Sauce get smaller and smaller......

"Really...... What happened to you guys in the end......"

Arashi, who had made dinner early, finally couldn't help but stand up and walk to the bathroom door after patiently watching TV in the living room for a long time, and reached out and knocked on the door.

"You two, you can come out for dinner......" Before he could finish his sentence, two exclamations came from the bathroom. But after a brief moment of panic, Joan of Arc's answer came through the door.

"Got it, Arashi-sama. ”

Although he had the heart to tell the other party that he couldn't see anything when he was standing outside the door, Lan, who didn't need to be nervous at all, finally just shook his head helplessly and walked to the table. Sometimes living with two women can be a bit of a hassle.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

No matter what happens in this world, the bright moonlight will not deviate in the slightest because of people's moods, the night in the forest is as quiet as ever, but the traces of yesterday's battle can still be faintly seen.

The girl who walked alone around the darkness, guiding the glowing orb to light her path, walked all the way to the abandoned grave. Silver-white light poured over her robe, setting off the beauty of the girl like a fairy in the moon.

"Red Lotus, what are you doing again?" Emilia asked curiously, looking at the canines in the distance, who were busy surrounding the entrance of the cave.

"I'm going to blow it up. Red Lotus stretched out her hand and pointed to the cemetery, which was no longer inhabited. The reason why this can be confirmed is that it and the girl have run into it no longer know how many times, and the lights that should have been lit and the small door that stopped in the depths of the dark room have all disappeared.

In response to the canine's angry words, Emilia folded her hands behind her back with her head bowed and smiled, and her slightly raised left foot supported her body after landing on her toes, and her light movements like dancing made her take a step forward.

"Are you in a better mood?" Feeling the change in Emilia at this moment, thinking of the girl's excitement when Arashi had just left, Red Lotus looked at the half-elf who looked up at the moonlight with some surprise.

"I had a dream when I was napping today. Crushing the purple eyes of the moonlight, exuding a different kind of tenderness while gazing at the night, Emilia, who finally stopped, said softly and slowly continued: "I dreamed that Arashi was in a world that I had never seen before, and then told me not to be afraid, he will definitely come back. ”

"So I just need to stand here, I don't have to go too far, I don't have to wait long, he will definitely come back to this world. ”

"Of course he's coming back. Red Lotus took it for granted, dropped the button in her hand, and walked to Emilia's side, "Hmph, that idiot can't do anything without me." ”
