Chapter 33 - Interrogation

After all the mess was over Tatsuya had to prepare the food once again as the food prepared by Himari was ruined during the fight between Miyuki and Kuroka. They all had dinner after that and Kuroka left and promised to visit him from time to time.

The next day after waking up Tatsuya did his morning workout and then took a bath. After taking a bath Tatsuya decided to check on his two 'guests' and went towards the guest room. He knocked on the door and said, "I am coming in" and entered the room. Inside the room he saw two girls one blonde and the other having purple coloured hair lying on the bed.

Kuisha turned her head and looked at him and said, "you have no manners or what, you entered the room even before I gave you the permission, what would you do if I was changing my clothes?"

Tatsuya looked at her with an neutral expression and said, "first, this is my house so I can go anywhere I want. Second, all your limbs are literally broken how the hell would you be able to change your clothes."

Kuisha who heard her reasoning blushed in embarrasment and looked away. Tatsuya didn't give it much thought and said, "anyway since you have woken up, I would like to ask you some questions and I hope you cooperate." Kuisha looked at him seriously and said, "okay ask whatever you want and I will try my best to tell you what you want to know but like I said before I am not going to tell you anything way too personal." The atmosphere was turning very serious but was broken when a growl was heard from Kuisha's stomach. Tatsuya looked at her gave a mocking smile. When she saw the smile her blush deepened and she said, "it's not like that it's just that I have not eaten anything since yesterday."

Tatsuya chuckled a bit and said, "you don't have to be embarrassed about it. Wait for a bit I will go and get us some breakfast it's nearly time for that."

Tatsuya went out of the room leaving behind a blushing Kuisha who looked at the door for a while and then turned away.

Tatsuya came back after a while with some sandwiches and then pulled a chair and sat beside Kuisha. He took a sandwich from the plate and moved his hand towards Kuisha's mouth.

Kuisha looked at the sandwich for a while hesitating. Tatsuya noticed it and took a bite from it and ate it and said, "there's nothing mixed in it so you don't have to worry about it. Now say aah." and gave a small smile.

Kuisha wanted to refute him but knew that her hands were broken and she could not eat by herself. She gritted her teeth but still took a bite and immediately got taken aback by the taste. Seeing her pleasant expression Tatsuya smiled unconsciously as it always made him happy when others eat his food with a pleasant expression.

Kuisha looked at the smiling Tatsuya and was mesmerized by him. She kept staring him for a while but regained her consciousness when Tatsuya touched her mouth with a sandwich. She unconsciously took a bite and ate it. After eating for a while she suddenly remembered that she had an indirect kiss with him and immediately blushed. She wanted to complain about it but when she noticed that Tatsuya wasn't even a slightest bit affected by it she stopped and didn't said anything.

Tatsuya noticed the change in her and used his telepathy to know what she was thinking. When Tatsuya heard her thoughts he sighed and then bowed his head and said, "I am sorry for making you uncomfortable." and then began eating a sandwich himself.

Kuisha who heard his apology smiled and thought, "He isn't that bad' She then came out of her thoughts and said, "so what do you want to ask me."

Tatsuya stopped eating and made a serious expression and said, "I already know your name and that you are a devil. What I want to know is whether you are a stray or not and why you got involved with those people in the first place and who is the one beside you?"

Kuisha also adopted a serious expression and said, "no I am not a stray devil and I got involved with them while completing a mission for my master."

"What mission and who is your master?" asked Tatsuya. Kuisha hesitated for a bit and said, "I am the queen of Siraorg Bael, you know about the devil piece system right?" Tatsuya just nodded to her question.

Kuisha also nodded and said, "You see someone close to my master is suffering from a similar disease like the girl besides me and he asked me to check whether the doctors had made some progress about her condition, so I went to check on her and then-"

"And then you saw her being kidnapped and decided on your own to save her without even knowing how much strong your opponent is. I don't know whether to praise your bravery or ridicule you for your foolishness." interrupted Tatsuya.

When Kuisha heard him she became angry and wanted to argue but was again interrupted by Tatsuya who said, "You didn't even consider anything before considering your actions at all, how would your king would have felt if he came to know that you got harmed because of the mission he sent you on huh, do you know how your friends and family would have responded to it." Tatsuya raised his voice a bit making Kuisha taken aback by shock.

She felt sad and discouraged about her actions and was very depressed but suddenly she felt something on top of her head. She looked up and saw Tatsuya patting her head. She observed him for a while and asked, "what are you doing?" "Patting your head" "No I am asking you why are you doing it."

Tatsuya sighed and said, "during all these years I have learned that patting someone's head affectionately is the best way to make them feel better when they are depressed." Tatsuya looked back at her and said, "if you hate it I will stop." Kuisha didn't say anything and Tatsuya smiled and said, "Though you were reckless I guess you do deserve some praise for saving that girl."

Kuisha became confused and said, "I didn't saved her you were the one who saved us." Tatsuya smiled at her and said, "but if it weren't for you delaying them they would have arrived in the town while I was working and I would have ignored them and she would be sold to those magicians."

Kuisha who was disheartened just a moment ago smiled and said, "you know what you are not as bad as I thought you were."

Tatsuya didn't said anything and kept on patting her head silently but suddenly the room got chilled and then both of them heard a voice, "onii-sama you are flirting behind my back."
