Chapter 368 - I'll Continue Writing After I Get Home
After I finished explaining the situation to Lilia-san and Dr. Vier about Eden-san to some extent, there was a considerably heavy silence.
A little while later, Lilia-san spoke in a grave tone.
[…..In short…… This Eden-sama is the God of Kaito-san’s world that you had told me about before…… and that God likes Kaito-san…… That’s why she helped you for this matter……]
[Y- Yes, well, something like that.]
I don’t think Eden-san’s affection is on the level of liking me…… Well, let’s just let this matter remain unclear.
Well, you know…… As expected, I couldn’t just say “The God of my world is a Yandere” or anything like that, right…… Right?
[……I thought that since I had met most of the powerful beings in this world…… that would be the end of it…… And now, you even went and asked the assistance of a God from another world…… No more…… You aren’t even trying to restrain yourself at all.]
Lillia exhaustedly muttered.
[……My apologies.]
I deeply bowed to Lilia once again. Thereupon, Dr. Vier, who had been silently listening to me up to that point, spoke to me, looking somewhat convinced.
[Miyama-kun, in other words, is it correct to say that…… she is someone like the God of Creation-sama of our world?]
[Y- Yes, probably.]
[I see…… No wonder I was feeling so helpless before her. I thought that I was a pretty strong person but…… the tops of worlds really are different.]
Dr. Vier was surprised by Eden-san’s identity, but she nodded her head, looking like she understood why she had been overpowered.
[……Dr. Vier.]
[Unnn?]
[…….Do you have any…… good stomach medicine?]
[Unnn. I think we should get you to try to stop relying on medication first. What you’re feeling is something psychological, so a change in pace would probably be good. I think it would be good for you to take a walk under the morning sun.]
[……What am I supposed to do?]
[Hmmm. Lilia-chan is a very serious person, so you probably already have a lot on your plate. I can’t say much because I’m the one who caused the problem this time but…… I think it’s best if you don’t stress out about things too much.]
Somehow, doesn’t it seem like they’ve started some sort of counseling!? No, I’m really sorry, Lilia-san……
[It’ll be easier if you voice your complaints and worries to others. How about you talk about it to someone like Lu-chan?]
Unnn. Dr. Vier certainly made a sound argument but…… I think that her choice of person is a complete mistake.
However, I can’t really say “I’m here to listen to all of your complaints.” to her. After all, I’m the cause of her worries……
[Ahh, that’s right! Why don‘t you go on a “date with Miyama-kun” for a change of pace?]
[Ehh!? A d- d- d- date……?]
[Unnn. You two are lovers, right?]
[T- That certainly is t- t- t- true but……]
Hearing Dr. Vier’s unexpected suggestion, Lilia-san’s earlier depression disappeared and with her face turned bright red, her gaze swam about as she spoke.
[H- However…… a date…… a date is…… If I were to regard Kaito-san’s circumstances…… and go on a date with him…… the date would turn into a date…… and if we were to go on a date…… W- Wouldn’t it be difficult?]
[I’m sorry, I have no idea what you’re talking about! Could you calm down for a bit……]
[Y- Yes……]
[Do you not want to go on a date with Miyama-kun, Lilia-chan?]
[T- That’s not it! That isn’t the case! Rather, I’ve been wan…… I- It’s nothing!]
I felt like the conversation was going in a weird direction, but a date with Lilia-san would always be welcome.
We hadn’t had a chance to go out alone together since that trip we had before, so I think it would be nice to wander around the city.
[……If it’s okay with Lilia-san, why don’t we go shopping together tomorrow?]
[K- K- K- Kaito-san!? I- I- I- Is that a d- date?]
[Yes. The Six Kings Festival is near too, so I think it would be a good idea to get some new clothes.]
[Auu…… auuu……]
[Lilia-san? If it’s not convenient for you, we can always do it another day, you know?]
[N- No! I- It’s awright!]
……She bit her tongue. She just strongly bit down on her tongue. Each of her reactions were just too cute.
As I happily looked at Lilia-san, who accepted my date invitation with a bright red face, Dr. Vier clapped her hands.
[Ahh, that’s right! I’ve got something good for you.]
[Something good?]
[Unnn. This was something given to me too…… It’s a ticket for a play. Errr, it should be here somewhere…… Found it! Here you go.]
[Eh? Errr, can I really have it?]
[Of course. I’m really glad for the thought they had when they gave it to me, but it isn’t really convenient for me to go there myself…… I think it’s going to expire in about 10 days, so you should go check it out soon.]
[……Thank you.]
[You’re welcome…… Well, I only have one ticket, so you’ll have to buy another for the other person…… I heard they’re playing something pretty popular.]
A play huh…… I knew that there were things in this world, but I have never been to one, even in my world.
Gratefully accepting Dr. Vier’s kindness, I confirmed if Lilia-san would like to go there, to which she nodded her head several times with a cute blush.
Thereupon, Dr. Vier announced that she was going back to her clinic. After thanking and apologizing to us once again, she left.
I also left the office after having a short discussion with Lilia-san about our plans for tomorrow’s date.
After dinner and a bath, I went back to my room and was writing in my diary, thinking about the day. This was when Kuro appeared, just as usual.
[Kaito-kun! I’m here~~]
[Welcome.]
[Hey, Kaito-kun. This might be sudden…… but how about we go on a “date”?]
[Ehh? Date? Right now?]
Kuro appeared in my room, and with her usual bright smile, she requested something out of the ordinary.
It was currently 9:00 pm…… Early enough to go to bed, but it’s late enough to wander around outside.
[Unnn…… I’d like to go to a place with Kaito-kun. Is it no good?]
[Not really, it’s alright with me…… Hold on, I’ll get my jacket.]
[Unnn!]
When I agreed to her date invitation, Kuro nodded with a sincerely happy smile on her face.
Dear Mom, Dad———– It had only been a few hours ago that I promised to go on a date with Lilia-san, and Kuro has now asked me on a date. I’ve been trying to write all the things that happened today in my diary but…… It looks like I’ll have more things to write———– I’ll continue writing after I get home.
Q: Serious-senpai: [You said that the date would be at the Six Kings Festival! That’s a false start! A foul!]
A: It’s because there’s not enough sweetness.
