As Theo dozed, he felt his consciousness awakening.
He noticed something warm wrapped around his body. Something warm and soft.
It felt much nicer and comfortable than when he was taking a bath.
The area around his head felt particularly soft. Whatever it was, it seemed to shape itself perfectly to wrap around his head, and he felt like he wanted to stay there forever.
This wonderful place also smelled very nice.
He could hug whatever it was that was wrapped around him.
Theo put his arms and legs around it, and it felt very comfortable.
(I want to keep sleeping wrapped in this forever…)
He thought, but he was the kind of person that never went back to sleep once he woke up.
Theo also awakened quicker than most people, and he started to realize what was in front of him.
(Oh, this is…! Helvi…!)
The first thing he saw was skin.
His head was buried between Helvi’s breasts.
Obviously, what his arms and legs were wrapped around was Helvi’s body.
Up until relatively recently, his face would instantly turn red and he would jump out of the bed in a panic in such a situation, but he was more or less used to it by this point.
Since they did it practically every night, waking up to a naked Helvi was not unusual.
His face was turning red, but he was not about to kick the covers away or anything.
Since Helvi was naked, the cold would wake her up if he did so.
He calmed himself, and pulled his head away from Helvi.
What he saw in front of him was a beautiful face.
He could not see Helvi’s almost transparent red eyes, but her long eyelashes quietly shook with every breath.
(I can’t believe someone this beautiful is my wife…)
A thought would cross Theo’s mind once in a while.
Was he dreaming that whole time?
That day… The day he found a summoning spell, and summoned Helvi.
He thought he was too happy ever since that day, like everything that followed it was a dream.
That beautiful woman… Who was actually a devil, was married to someone like him. Someone with no attractive qualities. Theo often thought about this.
Dreams usually did not last that long, and he did understand it was not actually a dream, but still found himself thinking about it sometimes.
If this was a dream, Theo wished to never go back to reality.
He could not imagine a world without Helvi anymore. If he did wake up and found Helvi was not there, he would probably lose his mind.
As he thought about this, he unconsciously started caressing Helvi’s face with his right hand. It felt soft and warm.
There was no way this was a dream.
As he touched her cheek, Helvi started moving slightly and opened her eyes.
“Good morning Helvi.”
“Good morning Theo.”
Theo and the person he thought was the most beautiful in the world smiled while being so close to each other, their noses touched.
He could not imagine being happier.
“How about we make breakfast together?”
“Hn? The inn will make it for us if we ask.”
“I just feel like making breakfast with you today… No?”
“…There is no way I will refuse if you ask like that. With pleasure.”
They said while still in bed.
It was going to be yet another peaceful day for them…
“Then let’s… Eh!?”
“Hn? What is it?”
“H-Helvi! What are you wearing…!?”
“Eh? Ah…!?”
As Theo sat up, he rolled half their cover, and saw Helvi’s provocative underwear.
It was his first time seeing her wear something like that. It was a little transparent, and very alluring…
“W-wait! Don’t look, Theo!”
“Ah, s-sorry!”
Theo was frozen with shock, but Helvi covered his eyes with her hand.
It was the best way to block his vision, since they were so close.
“I-I will show you tonight… So do not look.”
“…! Y-yes, understood.”
“…Alright. I’m sorry for covering your eyes.”
When Helvi moved her hand, she was already wearing her usual outfit.
As always, she put it on using magic.
“L-let’s just make breakfast.”
“A-alright.”
Neither could focus on what they were doing, but since they were used to it, they got through it without injury or failure.
The day that was supposed to start peacefully actually began with panic.
