1536 - Extra Chapter: Isis Episode ~ ~ Future ? ~ ~
[……Unnn…… Shalltear…… knows a lot of things that we don’t know…… She taught us many things…… like how she taught Ein about maids…… and taught Kuromueina about baby castellas…… She taught us many things.]
Somehow, I just heard multiple things that I couldn’t ignore. If what Isis-san says is true, it means that Alice was the one who created that Maid Fanatic and summoned the Baby Castella Demon.
……No, but well, I guess it’s not as if Alice had any malicious intent. As expected, she wouldn’t have told them about those if she had known in advance about their feelings for maids and baby castellas that were so deep that it could be described as madness. After all, when it comes to maids and baby castellas, Alice herself is also their victim……
[I see, Alice came from another world tens of thousands of years before the Hero Summoning took place…… In this world, being the first person from another world, it’s only natural that she would possess various knowledge that others are unfamiliar with.]
[……Unnn…… Shalltear’s stories…… are interesting…… and hearing about the onsen…… I was fascinated by the idea…… of taking a bath together…… so I asked her to make me one.]
Come to think of it, the fact that there are various items in this world that resemble those from my previous world might be attributed not only to the Hero actors but also to Alice. It seems that the world Alice once lived in is quite similar to my world……. Well, the world around the time Alice was transported from was rather futuristic, almost like a sci-fi world. There were apparently items that combined magic and machinery called magitech, so of course there are differences but……
[Do you also go in with your subordinates?]
[……When we have some free time…… but…… it seems like they were being considerate…… so I can relax with Kaito.]
[I see, I appreciate that. Thanks to that, I can now be carefree with Isis-san.]
[……Unnn…… Being alone with Kaito…… also makes me happy.]
Saying that, Isis-san leans against my shoulder. As the both of us were taking a bath, it naturally meant that we’re completely naked, so my heart couldn’t help fluttering when I felt the touch of Isis-san’s bare skin.
I can’t help but avert my eyes, turning my gaze at an angle a little. No, seriously, even though I’m somewhat used to taking a bath with others, I still get nervous.
Isis-san is also considerably defenseless around me……. Well, rather than being defenseless, I guess she just trusts me wholeheartedly……
[……Ahh, b- by the way, it would already be quite late when we got out of the bath, wouldn’t it? We ended up having a good chat with everyone after dinner, and it became a reasonably late hour.]
[……Unnn…… There’s still some time…… but I think it’s already a good time to go to bed…… Humans tend…… to go to bed around 10 at night…… right?]
[Hmmm, it depends on the individual to some extent. I tend to sleep between 10 pm, just like Isis-san said, and midnight. I don’t really stay awake until the day changes.]
For Isis-san, sleep is more of a preference, and she doesn’t need to sleep. Therefore, she relies to some extent on books and other sources of knowledge about Humans’ sleep.
However, this does not mean that the information she got is wrong, and she was actually accurate to some extent. In fact, in my case, I usually go to bed around that time and wake up between 6 to 8 in the morning.
[……I see…… Hey, Kaito…… It might be…… a bit selfish of me…… but can I say something?]
[Eh? Ah, yes. It’s totally fine.]
[……Errr…… I’ve had a room for Kaito prepared…… but if Kaito is alright with it…… I want you to stay in my room……. I want to stay with Kaito…… for the whole day today.]
[……Isis-san. Yes, I understand. Come to think of it, the first time I came to Isis-san’s castle, I stayed in Isis-san’s room, right?]
Isis-san’s castle is large, so there are multiple rooms, and they had properly prepared a room for me to stay in. However, Isis-san’s request is that she wants to be with me more.
Since there was no reason for me to refuse, I returned a reassuring smile and gave my consent to the seemingly lonely Isis-san. In response, Isis-san brightened up and flashed a radiant smile.
[……Unnn!]
As I watched Isis-san nod happily, how should I say this…… I somehow felt a little ticklish and warm. Overwhelmed by a surge of affection, I gently placed my hand on Isis-san’s shoulders and pulled her closely, embracing her lightly.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : […… A- Aaahhh…… I- I have a bad feeling about this…… Hyiiiihh……]
