CH 10

Walking with Satis was one of the best moments of Set’s life.

He walked with her through the bright streets and the gentle flow of time.

It was a sight that they could never have experienced in their position as a soldier or a General.

Satis and Set would remember the scene before their eyes for their entire life.

They could feel their hearts becoming peaceful in the conflict-free space that existed at this very moment.

“It’s beautiful. I’ve never had a walk like this before.”

“Oh, it really is …….”

There were various expressions on the faces of the people who passed by.

Some were tired from their work and were staggering back home, while others were adventurers who were drunk and on the upswing, trying to get to the next store on the ladder.

Their lives were blended into the light of the city, providing the bustle of the city even more depth.

The strong aroma of liquor and food that wafted through the air from time to time, the heat generated by the people, and the unique and powerful rhythms and swinging music that could be heard from place to place.

All of these things formed a single world.

In the midst of all this, Satis shone brightly as she walked next to Set.

Her figure looked more glamorous as she walked, her skin gently shimmering in the city light.

Even her revealing outfit made the evening stroll seem less like a small stroll and more like an intimate moment between a man and a woman.

Set endured the first time he felt this way, but walked as if protecting her from her surroundings.

It was like a fairy tale, so much so that one would think they were dreaming.

(Is this …… normal …… life?)

After walking for a while, they returned to the inn.

Set felt a bit sorry to leave, but the day was coming to an end.

Once I go to sleep, tomorrow will come.

Set felt a little frustrated because he wanted to experience the atmosphere of the night a little more, but he was still tired and needed to rest.

Satis must be tired too.

“……Well, now, let’s get some rest,” he thought as he entered the room, but there was only one bed.

Satis had done the check-in for him, so he had not been told what kind of room he would be getting.

“I’m sorry, this was the only room available.”

On the dirty whitewashed walls hung paintings that someone must have painted.

On the floor was a simple carpet with a table on it.

It was not a luxurious room, but it was more than enough for Set.

“I’ll sleep on the floor, you can use the bed.”

Set said as if it were a matter of course, but Satis dismissed the idea.

“No, I won’t allow you to sleep on the floor even though we’ve managed to get a room.”

“No matter what you think about it, you should use this place? Do you want to sleep on your floor?”

“That’s not what it means.……Isn’t it fine if two people use it?”

Set was silent.

For a moment, Set didn’t know what this woman in front of him was talking about.

“Use it?….. Hmm?”

“No, so… I want you to get into bed with me and sleep?”

“Eh?”

“Huh? Are you shy? Ahaha, you’re cute!”

“No, it’s…that…you’re okay with that?”

“Hmm? If it’s with you, it should be okay, right?”

Satis laughed teasingly.

He had never been involved with women in his life, and now he was being asked out by this beautiful woman.

He had no idea how to deal with such a woman, let alone the fact that his interpersonal relationships with women were somewhat questionable.

“Oh, no…? Were you thinking of something bad?”

“Eh, no! No, no, this is…….”

“No touching, okay?”

With that said, she used spatial magic to open a hole that looked like an entrance, and tried to enter it.

She was going to change into a sleeping outfit.

In the meantime, Set removed all of his equipment and lightened his body weight.

Then he sat on the edge of the bed, his head in his hands, red.

(Th- this, I’ve never been in a situation like this before! Even adults didn’t tell me!)

In the meantime, Satis came out yawning.

She was wearing a black top and bottom outfit, but as usual, it was very revealing.

The top was a tube top that covered her ample bosom, and the bottom was a pair of loose-fitting shorts.

Her hair was tied back and her glasses were tucked away.

The appearance of Satis, whom Set had never seen before, made him freeze.

(Sleeping in this situation while enduring …… Satis in this outfit? No, you can’t, can you?)

The sense of resignation in Set’s heart told him that he would not be able to sleep tonight.

Perhaps because it was too exciting, Set stopped thinking about it.

“Oh, my. Don’t you have something to say, like, ‘That looks good on you?’”

“…..What do grownups do in a situation like this?

“I can’t understand what you are saying?”

She sat back-to-back with Set on the bed while saying jokingly.

“…You’re not looking at me.”

“Don’t tease me…”

“I said no touching, but I didn’t say no looking, did I?”

Seeing Set blushing and becoming weak, Satis smiled softly.

Set on the other hand was completely taken by the cue.

He recognized once again the formidableness of the woman he had once opposed.

“Now it’s time for me to go to bed.”

“No, I don’t think I can sleep.”

“Don’t worry, you’ll have a good night’s sleep tonight.”

Set couldn’t believe it, but he decided to lie down for the time being.

In a supine position, he opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling.

If he saw Satis beside him, he would certainly not be able to sleep anymore.

Just as he was preparing himself to stay motionless until morning, he smelled a soft and pleasant aroma.

He thought it was the smell of flowers or something, but it made him feel very relaxed.

The tension in his body began to leave his body, and a vague feeling of drowsiness began to overtake Set.

He did not know what was going on.

But he could not think about it.

Then, Satis, who was lying down next to Set, brushed his cheek with her left hand.

Then she whispered to Set in a sweet and gentle tone, “I told you, didn’t I?”

“……Oh, this …… is…”

“It’s a little magic. Now, just relax. It’s okay, there’s nothing here to hurt you. You can rest now. …… be a good boy.”

“Oh, ………”

Set couldn’t see her face because he was always looking up.

Even if he wanted to see it, his body wouldn’t move.

Enveloped in her warmth and this scent, Set fell into a comfortable sleep.

Set’s sleeping breath echoed quietly in the dimness.

As moonlight poured into the room through the window and curtains, Satis continued to stroke Set’s head as he slept.

“……Totally, he’s such a troublesome child.”

It was a smile that resembled sympathy.

Her new expression that she would never have been able to show when she was in the Demon King’s Army.

Her heart was once broken by the terrible violence she suffered.

She met Set and came to this point, and new feelings sprouted.

Satis, who had never loved anyone, was the only one who allowed herself to turn to him.

With a smile on her face, Satis closed her eyelids and fell asleep.

The town that was once so bustling was now enveloped in silence.

The moonlight and the darkness were equally restful.

Until the next morning arrives, they would be able to enjoy that rest. ……
