CH 24

After completing the request: ......

We returned to the city and reported to the guild.

After that, we had dinner at the inn and went back to our room.

We're sleeping and waking up in the same room.

Rain told me that there were no other rooms available.

At first, I thought it would be a shame to be with a guy like Rain, let alone Kanade.

But now I'm not so sure. It's partly because I've gotten used to Rain through spending time with him. ......

It's not only that, but I've come to trust Rain.

"......"

I rolled over in my sleep.

Rain was asleep on the floor.

There was a problem of not enough beds to sleep

Then Rain gave up his bed to me and slept on the floor.

It was as if I had kicked him out.

And yet, Rain didn't seem to mind.

You can complain more about it at ......

"...... You're such a softie."

I thought back to the daytime.

A painful mistake.

A mistake made by being careless.

It was because of this that Rain was injured.

I am the strongest species.

It is said that I am the most powerful of them all, the dragon race.

Tania the Red Dragon.

That's me.

I am much stronger, much smarter, and much more powerful than humans.

That's why I have a lot of pride.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that they look down on others, but they don't doubt that they are the strongest race.

I, too, had never doubted that the dragon race was the strongest in the world until now.

I also thought that humans, although powerful to some extent, were no match for them.

But then I realized that humans were no match for ......

I was protected by Rain.

I'll be honest with you, it was frustrating.

I was feeling useless

I thought that I would be able to protect you, but not the other way around.

But in fact, Rain protected me.

The situation was reversed.

The face of the strongest species is completely ruined.

But ......

I don't care about the pride of the dragon tribe. ......

I was terrified when I saw Rain bleeding.

It's my fault.

It's my fault.

It's my fault.

If Rain dies like this,......?

When I thought about it, a chill that I've never felt before hit my whole body.

This was not the time to be thinking about regret.

Fortunately, Rain's injuries were healed by magic.

There are no lingering effects.

But ...... the fact that I made a mistake will not disappear.

I'm not sure what to do.

It's a wedge that bites into my heart.

The one who broke the spell was ...... Rain.

It's not that I blame myself for making a mistake,.......

When I worried about him, he somehow thanked me for it .......

He smiled and said he was glad I wasn't hurt.

It was a very warm smile.

When I saw Rain's smile, all my worries, fears, and other dark emotions disappeared. ......

My heart was filled with peace.

"...... Really, Rain is a mysterious person.

At first, I was only curious about the strange man who was working with the cat spirit tribe.

The reason why I decided to go with Rain was because it seemed more interesting.

As I went along, I became attracted to Rain's personality.

I began to feel at ease with Rain's kindness.

We've only known each other for a short time. ......

Even so, I liked Rain enough to be willing to put my trust in him.

And then there was the incident in the daytime that put a damper on things.

He saved my life.

He was worried about me.

He smiled at me with a warm face.

From the point of view of other people, this may seem like an insignificant thing.

But to me, it was a shocking event that turned my world upside down.

How could a mere human being save me? ......

And that he would sacrifice himself to protect me. ......

My sense of value was suddenly shattered, and my view of human beings changed.

No, not really.

To be precise, I changed my mind about "Rain", not people.

At first, he was just an interesting person.

Along the way, he was upgraded to a desirable person.

And now, ......

And now he's ......, a very important person who helped me.

"...... Rain ......"

I say my master's name softly.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.

I wonder why ......

It's a strange feeling.

It's a strange feeling that makes my chest feel warm and fuzzy.

"I've never felt anything like this before. ......

A feeling I can't put into words yet.

It grew inside of me ......

It was growing in me little by little.

"I'm not sure what ...... I'm thinking.　　It's as if I'm ...... thinking about Rain.

I can't get Rain's smile out of my mind.

I can't forget it.

It's burned deep into my mind.

My cheeks naturally turn red.

"It's not possible, it's not possible!

I shake my head.

Rain is a good person.

I like her personality very much.

I think he deserves to be my master, and I've come to trust him as an important person.

But that's all.

There's nothing more to it than that. ......

"Yes, I do. ...... I don't think anything of it. It's nothing ...... more than that."

While saying this, I somehow tried to imagine what would happen in future.

"......"

My face became even redder.

"It's not possible for ...... me to be so easily ...... fragile, and I'm not!　　This is not the case!　　It's not that I'm not interested, but I'm a little curious. ...... But that's it. It's not possible.

The more you deny yourself like that, the more frazzled you become.

My mind is in turmoil.

I feel restless.

My body is hot.

My heart is hot.

"Oh, God."

I pulled the futon over my head.

At times like this, you just have to fall asleep!

I pushed all my thoughts out of my head.

When I had emptied my head like that, I closed my eyes tightly.

But ......

I thought it would be a good idea to spend more time with him, so I mumbled to myself.

"...... Good night, Rain."
