4-36: Peace Continues Yet (3/6)

4-36: Peace Continues Yet (3/6)

Youko was about to ask if her master was going to delay just to avoid that situation, but Shinichi suddenly started talking about what hed done today- what hed done as Masquerade, what hed shown the world, as well as his objectives and thoughts.

Huh Uh Ugh Urgh

The more Shinichi talked, the glummer Youkos face became, and before long, she was the one perplexed.

It was true that with the situation as it was, he indeed had to act as Masquerade, but the one who brought about this situation was none other than him.

You really do like to blow things out of proportion, dont you, Master? I let you out of my sight one moment, and in the next moment, were in a bigger mess. Its the same story every time.

R-Really?

Although he did have a habit of getting themselves involved in one trouble after another, he didnt particularly notice anything about the scale.

Yes! Every single time! That was the case last time too. I let you off my sight one moment, and in the next moment were being attacked by a human trafficking organization.

Before I knew it, we were embroiled in the war of the organizations behind the trafficking, only for it to be revealed that a domestic issue of a great noble was actually the reason for the incident.

Meanwhile, a conspiracy that could shake the entire country was brewing in the shadows, and the army of another nation was invading because theyd predicted the country to fall into chaos.

And then just when you thought it couldnt get any worse, it turned out that the Evil God Cult were working in the shadows to take advantage of the invasion, so the Rimoa Church also dove into that hodgepodge of a mess.

It was only after eeeeeeverything that you somehow managed to fix the situation.

Oh, that did happen, didnt it?

Shinichi said as though such things happened commonly, causing Youkos headache to get worse.

What made it even worse was that everything she said happened on the same day.

Just one day for an absurdly long chain of unfortunate events to latch itself onto her master.

Of course, it was thanks to that that she understood what it was that made her master so charming, but hearing that her master had found trouble again wasnt something she could just brush aside, and she found herself narrowing her eyes.

Sigh, whatever Its not like youd listen anyway No wonder your body is a mess.

Youko said in a somewhat rebuking tone as she glared at her master.

But her master was a formidable person, so he indifferently said.

Its true that I got hurt, but I healed myself properly.

See? Shinichi said as he opened his shirt to show her that his arms and stomach were unwounded.

But Youko just narrowed her eyes more and laughed expressionlessly.

Ahahaha Master? Surely you dont mean to call that mess properly healed, right? Even I would get mad, you know Do you mind?

Uu.

Though she didnt break decorum and continued to speak with civility, there was a genuine pressure about her that didnt appear even during her fight with Gamma.

Were he a normal human, he would have long started trembling and been unable to muster a reply, but Shinichi just rolled his eyes and feigned ignorance Before he eventually broke and waved the white flag, that is.

Im sorry. Please heal me.

Sigh Leave it to me, Master!

Youko found it ridiculous that she had to threaten her master this much just to get him to confess.

But regardless, nothing made her happier than to be able to do something for her master.

As the hair on her tails extended, she covered her body with clothes of her own making.

You wont complain as long as I put on something, right? She seemed to say with that brazen pose of hers, but when her master saw what she was wearing, he couldnt help but drop his jaw.

What is that?

I know its not that well-made, but I figured this outfit(a nurse outfit) would be best since Im treating you.

The way Youko looked as she smiled sweetly at him was indeed that of a nurse.

The trademark nurse cap was there, and there was a one piece nurse uniform too.

Master?

Youko was too focused on the treatment to look away, so she called out to him when he didnt answer.

Ahh, Ill explain it later. I need to confirm it with you too.

Shinichi panicked a little at that, and hurriedly spoke to fool her.

When he talked about his actions earlier, he hadnt mentioned the golden-haired man in detail.

I understand There, Ive done what I can. But please be careful. Healing magic isnt my specialty.

Shed mostly healed all the wounds that she could find with her senses, but given her reckless master, she wanted to heal the other damages too.

After all, the damage incurred when wounded was not limited to just physical damage.

There came difficulties and fatigue too, but that was not something that she could heal with her magic.

A quick healing as thorough as that was still too difficult for her at her skill level.

Of course, hers was already at a level that made it doubtful if there even 10 others like her.

Youre bad at healing magic too.

To be more precise, Im bad at everything. Im just getting by with my Skill. Well, dont worry. The rest will heal up on their own. If youre that worried, why not try out a skill?

Shinichi said to try and ease her worries.

But Youko just quietly objected with her eyes, and then suddenly pulled him down.

Hey.

That irritated voice sounded from her thighs.

At this distance, Shinichi naturally wasnt a match for her speed when she was serious.

Before he knew it, hed been so easily placed above her thighs.

It felt good, so he didnt hate it, but he looked unhappily at her in protest of how roughly he got there.

Fu fu, isnt it fine? Its a rare opportunity, so Id like to be with you a little while longer in this form.

Youko wasnt the slightest bit guilty as she brushed his hair.

To her nothing could be more enjoyable than this moment.

Perhaps to her, this was something like social grooming.

That was a form of communication between animals, after all.

Seeing her like that, Shinichi couldnt complain either, but He wasnt really the type to just be on the receiving end.

In that case, give me one of your tails too.

Huh? Hyaan!?

Shinichi caught one of those three tails happily swaying at the edge of his vision and forcibly hugged it.

As Youko let out an adorable scream, Shinichi buried his face into her tail and enjoyed her warmth.

With softness and texture beyond even that of cashmere, Shinichi happily enjoyed that fluffy tail.

Y-You cant do that all of the sudden, Master! Im sensitive there, ahn!? No, d-dont, wow, ah, there, hmm E-Enough already, Master!

With her tail skillfully caressed, Youko found herself moaning, so she blamed her master while blushing, almost as though her earlier provocation were a lie.

Youko herself didnt mind taking the lead to provoke her master, but she was still new at this, so whenever her master touched her, she would quickly turn into a blushing mess.

Hmph, you wanted to seduce me with your meagre skills? Youre 10 years too early, girl.

As her master laughed triumphantly, she puffed her cheeks up like a child.

Her face may have already been that of an adult, but that took nothing away from how adorable she looked.
