Chapter 1618: A Reward for Lilia ?
<Author’s Notes>
I don’t have much time, so today’s chapter is a bit short.
After embracing Lilia-san for a while, we took a break and went back to looking at models. Though I say that, this place has a collection of dragons from several worlds, so as expected, there were so many that it didn’t seem like we would finish looking at them all no matter how many we looked at.
In the first place, each model has its own explanatory sign, and Lilia-san was looking at them very intently, so we’d obviously take a long time. it would be impossible for us to go through all of them, at least not with the time we have today.
However, it seems that all of the dragons from one planet are gathered in one storage room, so many of them look similar to each other. While Lilia-san may have wanted to take her time looking at them, she arranged things in a way where we visit several storage rooms one after another, taking my feelings into consideration.
As we were leaving a storage room and heading to the next one, I suddenly thought of something and asked her about it.
[......Arehh? It just occurred to me, but how does weather work in this world?]
[Ahh, it seems that I can control that too. For example, if I operate it like this......]
[Ohh, it turned night.]
This world has been daytime all the time, and when I asked her about it, Lilia-san operated her terminal and switched the world to nighttime. The night sky is full of stars, and it’s quite beautiful.
If she can control even the weather at will, when it comes to this world, she really is just like a God.
[The starry sky is amazing. It’s overwhelming.]
[Yes, I just tried testing that out myself...... but it sure is amazing. You don’t usually see such a beautiful starry sky.]
[Since we’re at it, how about we look at the stars for a little while?]
[That sounds like a good idea. Let’s do that...... I’ll just make a hill over here......]
[Ohh, that kinda feels like you have creation power.]
[Fufu, it does feel like a World Creation power. Well, I’m just operating stuff on this terminal though...... In any case, since I’m able to do all this, let’s watch the night-time stars on top of a grassy hill.]
Agreeing with the words Lilia-san with a chuckle, we moved up the hill together. The atmosphere feels quite nice, feeling good with us sitting side by side, gazing at the star.
[It’s beautiful, and the peacefulness feels nice.]
[Yes, it’s probably the best setting for star gazing...... W- With this kind of mood......]
[Unnn?]
[Ah, no...... Errr, a- ahh, look over there, Kaito-san! The stars around that area are amazing!]
Eeehhh...... L- Lilia-san...... You’re someone who can’t tell lies as usual. I mean, it really feels like she’s trying to somehow get me to face that direction.
I don’t really know what she’s trying to do, but for the time being, I decided to just go along with it and turned my gaze in the direction Lilia-san was pointing.
[......Errr, that direction?]
[T- That’s right. A little higher up......] n0velusB.c0m
[Higher up...... Fumu. That should be———-]
[Chu.]
[——–Eh?]
Feeling a soft sensation unexpectedly on my cheek, I turned around in surprise. Even though I did notice that Lilia-san was up to something, I never expected she was planning on kissing me.
While I was surprised that the extremely shy Lilia-san would actually do such a thing, Lilia-san spoke with her face blushing red, sweating profusely.
[U- U- U- Unpreparedness is a person’s greatest enemy, y- y- you know......]
[Let’s calm down, Lilia-san. You don’t look composed at all. You seem like you’re about to faint any moment now...... Take a deep breath......]
From Lilia-san’s perspective, she probably intended to say that with plenty of composure as the older one between us, but her face clearly conveys how extremely flustered she is.
In any case, I found myself struggling to calm down Lilia-san for a while.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Guaaaahhhh...... T- This is...... This thing’s still going on......?]
