Lazy Dungeon Master Chapter 569: Bridegroom Training The Confession

Chapter 569: Bridegroom Training The Confession

After being rejected by Wataru and then confessed to, Nerune and he officially became a couple.
Additionally, they managed to throw Leona for a loop.
"That girl did well! She definitely deserves a reward."
"I never expected Nerune to be the one confessing."
"I didn't ask her to go that far, but it seems Nerune had her plans after all."
Watching the two of them holding hands in front of the [Legendary Tree], Rokuko nodded with a satisfied look.
"Well, shall we go and celebrate?"
"Yes, let's!"
They began walking towards Wataru and the others. Leona, who had been talking with Nerune, grumbled but looked somewhat pleased. Wataru probably noticed them approaching, as he waved when they got closer, all the while holding Nerune's hand.
"Hey, congrats, Wataru. But seriously, proposing out of the blue? It's no wonder you got turned down. You need to take things step by step."
"Uh, thanks… Yes, you're right. I got ahead of myself."
"Really. If you were as close as me and Kehma, it might be different. But when you propose, you need to think about what's best for Nerune. Did you even consider her feelings?"
"Did I… cause a scene?"
Wataru hunched forward slightly in embarrassment.
"Why did you even bring up a house, Wataru?"
"Well, I thought proposing with a house would be the norm in this world."
"So, the person you fell for—dooes she have the typical tastes of this world?"
"I… made a mistake. No, she doesn't. I'm sorry, Nerune."
"Make sure it's a proposal to my liking next time~, okay~?"
Nerune teased, poking him.
Yeah, they seemed closer now. This is what a couple's intimacy should feel like…!
"But you know, maybe that was a good example, right Kehma? Unreasonable confessions might be turned down, but reasonable ones might get accepted."
"Yeah. There's also the possibility of the confession coming from the woman…"
"Oh? You promised to confess and then kiss me, right Kehma? That's a bit problematic. Kehma, please increase our success rate. I'm good with a proposal."
Pushing past Wataru and the others, Rokuko stood in front of the [Legendary Tree].
… She wants it now!?
"I thought we agreed on doing it after a date…"
"What are you talking about? We had a date today, didn't we?"
"Huh? … What!?"
Unintentionally glancing over at Wataru, he just nodded in agreement.
"I was watching too, but you two were on a boat, and you even had a lap pillow session. Isn't that a date?"
"Moreover~, you also ate a sandwich handmade by Rokuko-sama~."
"That's undoubtedly a date. In fact, I'm envious. I want to taste something homemade by Nerune too…"
"If you want, maybe I'll plant some tomatoes next time."
"You'd start the homemade process from there!?"
Was she really fine with peeping date? Is that even a thing?
"So, what will you do, Kehma?"
"Well, uh, Wataru and Leona are watching…"
"Wataru and Nerune confessed knowing that we were watching, right?"
"Well, that's true, but still!!"
Glancing at Leona, she was indeed grinning ear to ear.
I knew you were that kind of person, Leona.
"Give me a break. I won't tease you anymore…!"
"In that case, can we at least hide somewhere we won't be seen?"
"Yeah! Let's secretly watch Papa's confession, 'kay Leona-san!?"
"Geh, Soto-chan!? I thought I'd escaped! Ah, ah—hold up, don't pull on my clothes—"
Soto suddenly appeared and dragged Leona away just as quickly. What was Soto up to?
I'm not sure what to do about her… It's quite a headache.
… But seeing the situation, maybe Soto could be able to keep Leona in check.
"Then we should hide too. Shall we go, Nerune?"
"H-Huh?"
"Good luck~, Rokuko-sama~."
"Thanks, Nerune."
With that, Wataru and Nerune also hid among the bushes.
… Leaving Rokuko and me alone. Ignoring the also four people hiding in the bushes.
The sun was setting, and it was just about night time. The sky had started to transition from red to a navy starlit expanse.
Looking around, the [Legendary Tree] was illuminated by magical lights.
This atmosphere was perfect.
"Kehma… Whenever you're ready."
Rokuko smiled, pressing a finger to her lips.
She teasingly licked her lips, beckoning me.
… Alright, let's muster some courage.
"Um… I'm not good with words or anything, but—"
"Mm-hmm?"
"… I love you. Will you marry me and be my wife?"
"… Huh?"
Rokuko tilted her head.
"We're already married, aren't we? Can't we go higher?"
"Eh?"
"Don't give me that 'eh'. We've even exchanged rings, and we have a daughter. Isn't it a bit late for that?"
"… I mean, is there something higher than being a married couple in this world? I wouldn't know."
"If there isn't, then let's create one in Beddhism."
What would it be? Super-Marriage or something?
"I want to—you know, kiss Kehma! That kind of relationship!"
"… Isn't that what married couples do?"
"Then why haven't I been kissed by Kehma?"
Eh… why, indeed?
"Wait, was I the only one who thought we were a married couple…?"
"Ah, well… Maybe?"
"We have a daughter! You're such a wimp, Kehma! Even worse than Wataru!"
Hey, Wataru's listening over there, you know?
"Haa… well, if that's the case, it's fine. We'll kiss and stuff when we're officially married, right?"
"Y-Yeah? Sure. Haku-san gave us her approval already anyway."
"Right. So, from now on, we're a couple… okay?"
… She was definitely, without a doubt, closing the distance between us.
"… Hmm."
Rokuko lifts her chin slightly, gazing up at me.
"… Can I kiss you?"
"Mm."
With her eyes melting in anticipation, Rokuko nodded slowly.
Her eyes gently closed as I took hold of her shoulders.
…
S-So soft…
The moment that thought crossed my mind, I suddenly felt a slippery sensation thrusting into me from Rokuko's mouth and I instinctively pulled back.
"!? R-Rokuko? Why the sudden tongue action?!"
"Huh? It's allowed from now on, right? It's only natural."
"Wait a minute! I wasn't prepared! And we're being watched—watched by Wataru and everyone!!"
"You talk too much. Do you have any idea how much I've held back?"
She gave a carnivorous smirk.
Eek!
After that, I managed to escape saying [Let's at least go home first!] and teleported us back to the village chief's residence.
