Shien believes that he’ll be able to find a lot of things that he needs there.
After the discussion, Shien and Airi got ready to head home.
However…
“… Why are you hugging me?”
After seeing her feet which had suddenly let the ground and the sensation from her back, Airi fell silent for a moment before asking darkly.
Shien who picked Airi up just enjoyed the sensation of the soft loli in his arms while speaking as if it’s only natural.
“You won’t let me feast my eyes, so I’m just going to have to use my hands then.”
That kind of reasoning really is shameless.
Airi doesn’t want to bit him anymore. Instead, she’s getting ready to move to pinching.
Shien, perhaps having noticed that, hurriedly explained.
“You did agree before that I’m allowed to keep hugging you.”
Those words made Airi at a loss for how to react.
“Sigh…”
Airi could only sigh again for the who knows how many time.
And as he watched Airi who didn’t object no matter despite her irritation, Shien grinned in satisfaction and headed back toward the direction of the Latrard home with an adorable demon loli in his arms.
…
Not long after, Shien and Airi both arrived back at the Latrard home.
Only then did Airi finally struggled a bit, leaped out of Shien’s embrace, and refused to let him grab her again.
Shien was a bit regretful. It’s because the sensation of having her in his arms really was great.
However, he knows well that, given how Airi is, she definitely won’t want him to pick her up or hug her in front of other people. Thus, Shien didn’t insist, and just headed on in with Airi
What greeted him was much like the previous time though. Vivian and the others were actually all there. Only, they seemed to be discussing something unlike the previous time when they were just chatting about nothing.
“You’re back?” Vivian immediately waved to Shien when she noticed him, “You’re just in time, come over for a bit.”
“What is it?” Shien was rather curious, so he headed on over and asked, “Are you discussing something?”
“Yes.” Vivian nodded, “We’re discussing what to do next.”
Shien understood now.
Much like Balon, Leon, and Alrith, now that the audience is over and the transport quest that came about due to the Old Demon Faction has been completed, Vivian’s party also need to plan out their own next moves.
“Sir Balon and Mr. Leon have already prepared themselves to set out. They’ll be heading out tomorrow and returning back to Lamdrion tomorrow. Alrith will be doing just as he mentioned before. He’s planning to stay in the Capital with his own party. Thus, it’s just us who haven’t made a decision yet.” Vivian spoke, “I’m currently asking what everyone’s thoughts on this matter are.”
Just as Vivian finished with her explanation, the silent Diere looked toward Shien from where she was at the side.
“Vivian already told us. You’re going to be staying for the time being, right?”
Diere so questioned Shien.
“That’s right.” Shien didn’t bother hiding it at all and just spoke directly, “I have a month’s right to consult the underground magic library after all. Even if I’m leaving, that will probably have to wait until at least next month.”
The moment he said that though, two hands were immediately raised in a hesitant manner.
“I-is it really just because of that?” Lumia stammered.
“… Is Mr. Shien really not staying because of her highness the princess?”
Melika was also hesitant. She only finally spoke up in the end with a complicated tone.
“…”
Shien had no words.
