Chapter 11
Leaves danced in the air as the large wolf’s powerful legs beat the ground .
I zoned out the cold winter air grazing my skin, and focused my attention on the wolf’s muscle movements .
―― Now!
The wolf made a steep right turn .
But I, who was riding on top of it, wasn’t blown off by the switch in momentum .
Me and the wolf had become one as we navigated through the dense forest at breakneck speeds .
Which is when it happened,
With a loud crash, a boulder had landed in front of us, blocking our path .
Dodging―― wasn’t an option .
The wolf didn’t slow down in the least, and slammed head first into the boulder .
―― And right before that .
I erased the mass from both myself and the wolf .
With that, the force from the impact equaled a total of zero, and the wolf came to a point blank stop just as its forehead touched the boulder .
The time between the large obstruction landing and me invoking my Art――
Was around 0 . 5 seconds .
“Wrong . You should’ve moved around it by changing your inertia . ”
And as the two of us were going back, my great Master Rakel met us on the way to swiftly admonish me .
“… Uh, Master, can I just say something?”
“Yes?”
“My reaction time is now 3 times faster than when I first started this training so, is it not possible to ask for a little praise?”
“You want me to praise you?”
“Just a little . ”
“Who’s a good boy . ”
“I’m not a dog!”
I shook away the hand that was ruffling up my hair .
I felt pitiful that it was actually making me kind of happy .
Together with Rakel, we went back to the open field within the forest .
The same field where Filly and I had once found Rakel .
A lot of our training was being done inside the forest, so this place had become a sort of base for us .
“Ah, welcome back you two~”
Filly, who was sitting on a tree stump, turned and waved to us .
A collection of hares were gathered in front of her .
I counted 30, at a glance . And they weren’t simply gathered randomly .
This army of hares were acting like, well, an army, forming crisp marching columns and walking in unison .
“Attennn~~~~tionnn!!”
On Filly’s order, they all stopped at attention .
Marching hares gave me a really fantasy image, but these ones looked much more trained than festive .
Rakel observed this for a moment, and then nodded approvingly .
“You’ve gotten a lot better at commanding them, Filly . Good . ”
“Hehe~! Sure have~!”
“Ayyy! You’re praising her just fine!”
“Well . Filly is cute . ”
“Fufu~! I’m so cute~ ♪”
“Jack, you need to be more cute . ”
“Jacky’s not cute~ ♪”
UN! FAIR! I’ll tell your employer (Dad) on you, just you wait!
Once they were done teasing me, Rakel, now more serious, said,
“Alright, jokes aside… the two of you have grown well . Especially you, Jack . You’re not the snot-nosed brat who put too much pride in his inborn talents anymore . ”
Really? That’s what you thought of me?
“Ah, that’s right… Jack . I have something to give you . A present . ”
“A present?”
“Yes . It’s something that’s sure to help you get stronger . ”
Stronger…
“I’ll have it for you, I think, tomorrow . You’ll like it . ”
“Eh~ sounds great~!”
Filly looked like she was more excited than me who was receiving it . Well alright, she’s always this hyper .
So a present that’ll help me get stronger huh…
Hot damn, I was really getting stoked too . That Rakel, such a tease .
“Alright, looks like we’re done for today . ”
Rakel announced, casually as always, and the three of us returned to the manor .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
2 men sat in the parlor .
Jack’s father, Caram Lieber, and Filly’s father, Cherno Posford .
“… Is it those Crimson Cats again?”
“It is… this makes the 3rd time just this month . They even got one of my own caravans . ”
The two men had on expressions they wouldn’t dare show in front of their children .
“Lord Lieber, this is becoming an urgent matter . We mustn’t let them do as they please . ”
“I know . By my name as lord of Daimcrüd, I will swear to put a stop to their banditry . ”
His tone was calm, but Caram’s demeanor had returned to that of his days as an active Spirit Master .
His eyes, that of a man who wouldn’t show mercy to his prey .
The 2 men stood .
It was around the time their children would return from the day’s training .
As Caram opened the door leading out, he saw that their children had returned .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
Dad came out of the parlor and stopped once he noticed that we’d returned .
“Oh, back already? Is their training over for today?”
“Yes . Well, since it’s gotten chilly as of late . ”
Rakel answered him . Then she continued, “Excuse me, but…
“… I seemed to hear something about the Crimson Cats?”
“Hum, Rakel-san, you know of them?”
“Rumors in other towns, yes . ”
“I see . Well, it seems they’ve moved into my territory as of late . Please do be careful when you head out . ”
“I appreciate the concern . ”
Rakel and Dad had ended their conversation but I still didn’t have a clue as to what they were talking about .
I think they were speaking in a serious tone inside the parlor, so was that it?
“Um… the Crimson Cats? I don’t follow . ”
I asked curiously, but Dad was hesitating to answer .
“Right, well…”
“It’s the name of an infamous band of thieves . ”
Rakel answered in Dad’s place .
Dad looked at her with an expression of surprise,
“… Is it not too early for them? I wouldn’t want to scare these two with talks of bandits . ”
“Not at all, the two of them have grown plenty strong enough to defend themselves should the need arise… I believe it would be safer for them if they knew of current news . ”
“Alright . That seems reasonable . ”
Now with Dad’s approval, Rakel once again turned to Filly and me to explain,
“The Crimson Cats are a band of thieves who’ve been causing trouble in many parts of the kingdom these past few years . They allegedly have around 30 members and their activities range from common highway robbery to kidnapping, they do all kinds of things . The majority of their number are large and strong men, but… as for their chief, she’s a powerful Spirit Master with a bounty that’s grown so high, you could live 10 years in luxury on it . ”
“Uh huh… . ” I mused .
So the boss is a Spirit Master, and a she…
“Listen you two,” Rakel warned, “you are not to go outside after sunset under any circumstances, but practice caution even when it’s day time . If anything happens, your first job is to report to us adults . Got it?”
“Got it . ”
“Crystal clear~!”
Seeing me and Filly answer so straightly, Dad and Mr . Posford smiled wryly to each other .
“Couldn’t have said it better myself . ” Mr . Posford said,
“Indeed . Rakel-san has become quite the guardian for them . ” Dad agreed .
“Ah! … erm, my apologies . ”
Rakel awkwardly apologized, maybe thinking she overstepped her bounds .
I say awkward, but her expression was mostly stoic as always .
“No, it’s quite alright . We always seem to be busy with work after all . It’s good to have someone like you watching over them . ”
“Indeed it is . I myself felt a heavy load off my shoulders once the girl became your student . It’s great! Ho ho ho!”
“That’s how it is . I’d appreciate it if you keep watching over our kids as you do . ”
“… I am grateful for your words . ”
Dad nodded at her sincerity, and then he came and got on one knee in front of Filly and me .
“So there you have it . Since it’s gotten so dangerous on the roads, and it’s almost after dark already, Philene-chan, what say you and your father stay over for the night?”
“Eh! Can we, we can stay over!?”
Filly looked at her own father for confirmation, who gave her a gentle affirmative nod .
“Yippee~! Sleepover~!”
“Woah!?”
Filly expressed her happiness with her whole body and leapt at me in a hug .
I used 【Veiled Wings of Freedom】 on reflex and caught her .
“What should we do first~! Hey Jacky, do you know any games?”
“The first thing you should do is get off of me . ”
“Eh~ don’ wanna~”
“And stop rubbing your face on me!”
So clingy…!
“You two need a bath first . ”
Rakel declared as she unstuck Filly from my body .
“You’re dirty from training . However you want to play, do it after the bath . ”
“Ah, you’re right! Let’s go right away, the three of us~!”
“Ha?”
What’s this chick on about?
“Uh no, I’m not――”
“Sure . ”
“Sure!?”
Hey Master, how come you’re just saying ‘sure’?
“Um, listen… Master? I’m not sure if, as a man, I should…”
“Say that once you’re a hundred and fifty years older . ”
“Damn you elves and your sense of time!”
It was thus (somewhat forcefully) decided that the 3 of us would enter the bath together .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
I took off my clothes at godspeed before the two of them even entered the changing room, and was first to enter the bathroom .
There was just something really awkward about getting undressed with 2 girls in the same room, and I wouldn’t have any of it .
Plus, those two should also have the decency to cover up with a towel before entering, so in this way, I was preventing the most casualties .
Yeah, sure, call me a loser, I don’t care .
Including my past life, I possessed a total of 30 years worth of memories . And in that time, my practical experience with women was absolutely n… n… n… not exactly zero, but that doesn’t count anymore .
Right, it’s like Valentine’s Day chocolates . If receiving them from family doesn’t count, then thatdoesn’t either .
… I ended up remembering something awful again .
I sunk my head further into the hot water .
“Wow~! The bathroom’s so big~!”
“Filly, watch your feet, you’ll slip . ”
“Awah!?”
I heard the sound of Filly falling, and musing on how hopeless she was, I turned around to look at the newcomers .
It was at that moment,
That my heart seemed to completely explode .
Rakel, with her footsteps echoing through the bathroom, was walking towards Filly who’d slipped and fallen .
The elf wasn’t covered up with a towel .
It was open as could be .
She wasn’t even trying to hide anything .
Rakel usually wore really baggy clothes, so it was hard to make out her body line .
The only time I did get a feel for it, literally, was when she collapsed on top of me back when we first met…
Oh no .
Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no .
Were all elf girls like this?
Supple legs on a tight ass, framed within generously curving hips which led up to a petite waist .
If I was an adult, I bet they’d cup snugly in my hands .
No, what do you mean, ‘snugly’ . My head almost couldn’t take it no more .
And despite that, I hadn’t even gone up the other half of Rakel’s body .
My eyes were almost caught by the delicate little navel on her slim belly, but then, my peripheral vision had already caught sight of the area right above .
To the two, very large, milkers .
Calming my heart that was now pounding almost painfully, I slowly dragged my eyes further up――
Two round, perfectly shaped mountains each had, on their summits, a flower, pink in color, and perked up in all its glory .
A――A――A――A――A――!!
Calm, down . Calm the fuck down boy .
In manga, you often saw the protagonist burst into profound nose bleeding at such a scene but I,
“Ain’t there another place the blood’s gonna rush first (lol)?”
But I had that dirty gag pass through my mind . Then again, I was only 7 years old now, so the other area won’t react, so I might just end up exploding from the nose and passing out like that .
But that’d be such a shame―― SHAMEFUL thing to do as a man!
I simply had to look away . Yes, simply . But I couldn’t . I simply couldn’t convince my eyes to stop staring at Rakel’s chest .
… F-fuck that’s hot .
Like Jesus H . Christ, that’s hot .
How the hell do you get tits that big with a waist that tiny?
I mean, I could stand under there in the rain and be completely dry .
I was genuinely thankful that I was still 7 years old .
If I was ten years older, I definitely wouldn’t be able to resist it .
I’d try to assault her .
Then, she’d just easily turn the table on me, and game over .
No well, if I was that old, I wouldn’t go into the bath with her in the first place .
“…? What’s wrong, Jack?”
Rakel started coming closer to me, perhaps thinking it strange how utterly dazed I probably looked .
Her breasts jiggled every time she took a step .
Oh no oh no so big jiggly fun looks soft oh no oh no .
Wait, hold up, don’t get any closer, please!!
I turned my back to her, and dove into the wide bath .
“Hey, no diving . ”
Rakel sat down at the stools after giving me a light warning .
Looks like she planned on washing up first .
… I see, so she’s the type that starts with her arms .
I’d never seen how girls wash themselves, but how was she going to do those huge breasts anyway… ?
Holy! She raised them up!
Oh, so that’s how you do it, I see, I see .
That sure filled my intellectual curiosity! Yup, sure did!
“… Hm?”
Wait .
Waaait .
… I feel, a little weird, down there .
I just said, the other area won’t react, so I might just end up exploding from the nose, yes?
And in reality, I hadn’t had any reaction from it so far… So I simply figured that it doesn’t do that at such a young age .
I quickly took a peek below, beyond the water .
… Eh…?
I, was wrong?
So boys got this sort of sexual reaction this young?
I looked back on my grade school days in my previous life, but no such memories stood out .
Oh right, there was that one time I got into the bath with my childhood friend――
“Jacky, is something the matter?”
“――!? !? !?”
Filly was standing right in front of me .
I hid my crotch with my hands on reflex .
Filly, all around flat as a board, looked down and tilted her head .
“Does your groin hurt?”
“N-nope! I’m totally fine…!”
Cool down . Cool down like ice .
Right now, Filly was in front of me, so my view of Rakel had been obstructed .
What stood before me was the body of a 7 year old who mostly couldn’t be told apart from 7 year olds of the opposite sex .
Hey, Jack, my boy . You’re not a lolicon now, are you?
As if . It won’t show even a hint of reaction no matter how long I look at this new horizon .
Now, concentrate on this .
Drag that blood back into the body right now .
Take it Easy! Heck, it’s even easier than getting the groceries for Mommy .
“… Phew~…”
I’m calm now .
Cheers to a job well done!!
“Filly, come over here . I’ll wash your head . ”
“Yay~! Please and thanks~!”
“I’ll do you next, Jack . Come closer . ”
“… !? !?”
… Fine then .
Looks like the party’s just getting started…
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
Scrub scrub scrub scrub scrub .
“Any itchy places?”
“… None . ”
Scrub scrub scrub scrub scrub .
“Am I doing it too strongly?”
“… It’s fine . ”
Scrub scrub scrub scrub scrub .
“… You’re not saying much today . ”
“I’m totally not I’m always like this I’m don’t talk that much anyway aren’t you getting the wrong impression because Filly’s such a chatterbox?”
“Okay…?”
My eyes… were firmly closed .
The only thing I could see… was darkness abound .
I had done this so as to not get soap in my eyes… For that is the only reason .
I… at this moment in time, faintly felt that I… was stepping into the seldom trodden path to enlightenment .
May Buddha guide my soul .
“… …”
“…?”
I could feel a presence in front of me .
Miss Rakel was obviously still behind me… so thinking logically, it could only be Miss Philene .
I sensed that she was looking intently at something .
“… … Hmm?”
She voiced, sounding as if she was deep in thought .
But about what?
“Mm… OK . I’m touching this . poke poke . ”
#% &’ (& )( )= =) () (& &$ $% $! !! !! !? ?? ?? ??
Okay, enlightenment over .
Of course it is . She just poked me there of all places .
No man can take that and remain calm . Not even Buddha .
I wanted to run away right now, but Rakel was still scrubbing my head so I couldn’t .
I also couldn’t open my eyes and thus, was unable to accurately drive Filly away .
“Ooo~ . It’s kinda soft~”
“Aye, no, stop, you…!”
“pokey-poke… huh? It’s getting ha――”
――hardly anything wrong, NOPE!!
You think I’ll let myself react with a little girl touching me over there? Fat chance!!
“Stop it, Filly . I’m busy here . ”
Wait, I can just cover up by myself, and I wouldn’t need to drive off her hand .
But by the time I thought of that simple solution, Rakel had already gotten rid of the problem .
“Question, Master~”
“What is it?”
“This, what’s this thing?”
… My eyes, were still closed, but I could just tell what was going on .
Filly, I know you’re pointing at my nethers .
“Huh, what do you me… ah…”
Rakel froze up in the middle of her line .
… Oh?
“This, is… um…”
“Yes~?”
My Master Rakel, who could casually explain anything and everything, was at an impasse .
She’d even stopped scrubbing my head .
Oh…? Ohoho?
“Come on, Master~! What is this~!? I don’t have one of these, see~? And~… ah, you don’t have one either, Master~! We’re the same!”
“R-right… that’s… ok, g-give me a moment . ”
A large splash, and I realized that I’d been rinsed with a bucket .
And while I was rubbing my eyes, Rakel spoke from behind,
“… Jack . ”
“Let me guess, you want me to explain… ”
“You can, can’t you? You should know about it . ”
“I do indeed have the knowledge, yes . ”
I was a noble, and the stuff about leaving an heir was included in homework .
Well, in my case in particular, I didn’t actually need someone to teach me .
“Can’t do it . ”
“What… why…?”
“Our Dads left educating us to you, right? So please, my Master, fulfill your duty and educate us~”
“Ugh…”
I grinned uncontrollably .
She was in a bind now . My Master Rakel . My Ultimate Spartan Master, Rakel was in a bind .
The mere thought was so incredibly funny I couldn’t bear it .
“Please explain it for us precisely like you always do, alright? Its name, function and purpose, all the details if you will . There’s nothing vulgar about it, after all . ”
“… … Don’t be so, mean . ”
“Huh? I don’t think I’m being mean to you in particular~?”
“… … … . . . Fine . ”
Hm?
Fine?
“You asked for it, so I’ll explain . And since you’re here, you’ll be our live model, Jack . ”
Huh?
Model?
“Y-you’re… you’re kidding me you’re kidding me you’re kidding me!!”
“What’s wrong? There’s nothing vulgar about it, right? ”
“Ah… gh, aaah…!!”
Fuck you me form the past…!
“Hey you two! What’s with all the whispering? Don’t leave me out, you hear!”
Filly yelled in a pout .
Grrrrg . No going back now . If that’s how you want it――
“―― Alright fine . Alright fine alright fine alright FINE!!”
I stood straight up and―― cast aside the towel on my waist!
“There! Now explain it to your heart’s content!!”
I said in absolute spite as I stood brazenly in front of both Filly and Rakel .
I could feel both their gazes focus in one particular location .
And in a flash――
“Ah… ah…!”
―― Rakel’s face dyed scarlet as if she was boiling over .
As if she’d become a young girl, now both in appearance and age .
… so… cute…
“Wha~!?”
And in another flash, Filly raised a voice of surprise .
“What’s this thingy!”
And without hesitation, her hand leapt .
… I will leave whatever happened afterwards to your imagination .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
That storm of an event now past, the three of us were all currently in the bath proper .
… I felt tired . I was supposed to relax here .
“This is the worst…”
Rakel said, languidly resting her head back on an edge of the wide tub .
Her stretched posture caused her breasts to float, bobbing up and down in the water .
Damn that’s a good view…
No no no . If I look too long, I’ll have another incident .
“I can’t believe my own students had to see me like that…”
“… I never imagined you’d be so, shy, on the subject, Master . ”
“I’ve never been, intimate, so… And I thought I’d be fine seeing a child’s…”
O-oh, I see… so she hadn’t been intimate yet… I see, I see…
Rakel raised her face and looked at me crisply .
“… What’s with that face . ”
“Nooothing…”
“Cheeky brat . I know you’ve been looking at my breasts . ”
“Oghhbhh!?”
Sh… she knows…
Rakel faintly raised the corners of her lips, and gave me a somewhat triumphant look .
“What? You want a feel?”
“Eh…”
“If you do it though, I’m making tomorrow’s training menu 5 times tougher . ”
Five, 5 times… 5 whole times huh ~ ~ ~ !!
Seeing me seriously considering the offer, Rakel couldn’t help but chuckle imperiously .
“Oh, then you can touch my breasts, here!”
A splash of water rose up to reveal Filly . She’d jumped up from under water .
She offered to me her washboard of a chest .
I smiled sardonically and asked,
“And you’ll want one of my deserts after dinner, is that it?”
“Nope~! I’ll especially let you touch for free, Jacky!”
“Will you now? Then, don’t mind if I do,”
I went and got a feel .
“Kyauh! That tickles~!”
Yup, it’s all ribs I tell ya .
Then again, it was fun seeing Filly be tickled, so I grabbed her as she tried to get away and continued vigorously tickling her sides .
“Ohoho . You feel goood there, missy~?”
“Oh no! Jacky you perv~! Kyahahahaha!”
Hmmm .
I kind of felt like a real 7 year old .
And seeing the two of us scuffle with each other, Rakel let out a sweet smile .
“It’s… nice . Being friends like that . ”
“Hm?”
“The two of you will grow up together, you’ll walk the path of life shoulder to shoulder . I think that’s… very nice . ”
Was it like that?
At this moment in time, I didn’t really feel the value of such a thing .
Then, Rakel suddenly stood up .
What was she,
“Now, let me join you two~”
She came and took Filly and me in a big hug .
“Kyah!”
“Buffbfmoffmff!!”
So smooth so soft so warm so abababababababa .
I think I passed out for an instant there, but after that, the three of us played around a while longer before exiting the bath .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
“Jacky and Master and me, we’ll sleep together today!”
Filly strongly declared after dinner, so that’s what will end up happening I guess .
The maids were now leaving the room since they were done setting the bed for us .
“Those three are always so close, are they not?”
“Sure are! They’re practically siblings . ”
“But I do wonder if it’s Rakel-sama or Philene-sama that Jack-sama will settle for in the end . ”
“Philene-sama, duh! Rakel-sama’s older than him . ”
“Oh you fool . Rakel-sama is an elf, so give a few years and Jack-sama will look just dashing at her side . ”
“Hey, whoever he marries, we’ll get to see a beautiful bride and groom, no doubt about that!”
I can hear you, you know . You maids need to do your gossip where we can’t year you .
Well, I wasn’t going to bother complaining . I was used to this .
It’s a hobby all the maids seemed to partake in .
Filly landed on the bed with a large puff .
“Soft pillows~♪ Jacky, Master, get over here~!”
“That’s not the energy of someone who’s going to bed…”
I also got on the bed with a thin smile .
Rakel followed me, and we settled on the bed in a row .
Rakel, being the tallest, was in the middle .
“I’m turning it off . ”
I was closest to the lamp so I turned it off .
It became dark .
Only the faint light coming from the window illuminated the room .
“Fufu~♪ Master~, you’re so warm~♪”
I was, well, at least trying to be reserved and had positioned myself separated from Rakel, but Filly, in contrast, was hugging her tight .
They really were… like mother and daughter .
Something panged inside my head .
In the back of my eyes, memories, a scene .
I was young .
It was a time when I was actually 7 years old .
Me, my mother―― and my sister . A memory of the three of us sleeping together .
I was suddenly recalling the warm feeling from back then .
“… Master . ”
I suddenly felt my reserve fade .
My voice was trembling .
“Can I, come, a little… closer?”
I got extremely embarrassed right as I said that, and couldn’t look Rakel in the face .
But somehow… I felt like she was happy hearing that .
“… Mn . Sure . ”
I shuffled my body closer, and wrapped my arms around Rakel’s slim figure .
… Warm .
Soothing…
I buried my face in her and took in that sweet smell .
I somehow felt like I just did something very perverted, but I wasn’t getting aroused at all . It was the opposite, the act had calmed me down .
This warmth, this fragrance, I wanted more of it . Much more .
I brushed my arms around her to get into a more comfortable embrace, when,
“Anh~”
Rakel moaned, softly .
That definitely sounded like a moan .
I was momentarily surprised by the action, but quickly realized that I’d caused this .
I’d somehow ended up grabbing on to Rakel’s breasts .
Maybe because I felt that they were easy to hold on to .
I carefully lifted my gaze up to fine her staring pointedly at me .
“… … … … … . . Rascal . ”
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t thinking about what kind of reaction she’d make if I gave her another squeeze, but her look told me that doing that would be very unwise .
Then, Rakel lightly laughed and while I was still frozen in place, she hugged me in turn .
And she whispered, softly into my ear .
“There, it’s going to be 5 times the training tomorrow for you . ”
“Aakh!!”
H-have mercy…
“Leaving me out again~!”
Filly, who was on Rakel’s other side, climbed over her, and squished in between us .
“So, what were you talking about?”
“Jack here touched my breasts . ”
“Wow~ Jacky’s such a pervert~”
“It was an accident… please believe me…”
I’m ashamed of the actions I’ve done, I swear .
“Careful now Filly, Jack is a boy too, who knows what he’ll do . ”
“Eh~? I’m totally~ fine if it’s with Jacky~”
“That so, Filly, do you love Jack?”
“I do! I love love Jacky!”
“Oh, and what about him do you love so much?”
“Hm~, let me think~ Oh, he shares sweets with me, right~? And then, he also goes walking with me, isn’t that nice? I also love it when we race super fast~”
“I have a feeling a lot of those can apply to a pet dog…” I commented .
Well, with how she’s always popping out everywhere, she was more like a cat really .
“Oh, and, and… … he’s really really nice, just to me . ”
My heart skipped .
In that voice, in only that line… I felt this sort of, heat .
Rakel smiled and looked towards me now .
“That’s true, isn’t it . Jack is always very sweet to you . ”
“He sure is, isn’t he~?”
“I am…? I don’t think I’m that nice…”
I mean, I’m always getting dragged around by her .
“Okay then, Filly, here’s a big one . When you get older, do you want to be Jack’s bride?”
Dear Master, you’re really something, giving it to her straight like that with me right here .
You need to realize that you can’t just but kids on the spot like this!
“Oh… erm… huh…?”
Surprisingly, Filly was contemplating the matter .
She took quick glances at me as she pondered .
It was dark… and I couldn’t make it out completely ――
―― But she was, blushing…?
Filly was?
Being shy?
For a little while more, Filly kept humming in thought .
And when she was done,
“… … … … … … … yes . ”
She answered .
With a small, tiny little voice .
But she had answered ――
Determinedly .
“… Got it . Then I’m sure you’ll work hard so you can be a great wife, won’t you?”
“Yes!”
“You too Jack, work extra hard and be a good husband for her . ”
“Y-yes . ”
… Wait what?
Did I just promise to get married?
“Ehehe~ ♪”
Filly laughed bashfully, like she’d been tickled somewhere .
… oh, alright .
Seeing my innocent childhood friend’s smile, I decided to think that this was fine .
◆ ◆◆― ――― ――― ◆◆ ◆―― ――― ―― ◆◆ ◆
I was beginning to doze off .
I was on the border of reality and dreamland when a tiny voice pulled me back to the former side .
“(Hey Jacky, Jacky~)”
“Ng…?”
When I opened my eyes, Filly was right in my face with her own .
Remembering the subject from earlier, my heart beat faster .
“You’re, too close…!”
“(Shhh . )”
Filly put her index finger on her lips, and then used it to point at Rakel .
My Master’s ample bosom was rising and falling . She looked to be asleep .
So you’re telling me not to wake her?
Is what I figured she was hinting at . Filly then slid under the sheets .
I felt a tug on my nightclothes .
Me too?
I was guessing she wanted to tell me something in secret, so under the sheets was better than out in the open .
I also slid inside the sheets .
It was of course pitch black in here .
With the collective body heat from me, Rakel and Filly, it was really warm too .
But now, with Filly being this close to me, I felt her warmth most of all .
I could hear her breathing in the darkness .
I felt her slowly repeating moist, warm breaths on my cheeks .
Filly’s breaths .
Once my eyes were adjusted to the dark, I could faintly make out the outline of her face .
“(Quietly . )”
Filly whispered in her quietest whisper .
Her breath hit my skin every time she spoke .
“(W-what is it? Did you want to talk?)”
I said, trying not to reveal my agitation .
Hey, where’s your cool guy now, huh?
Didn’t you say you ain’t no lolicon?
Was it maybe the natural sort of reaction for my 7 year old body?
“(Erm, yeah, that . )”
Every time Filly moved her lips, I felt as if they’d touch my own, and half my focus was fixed in that direction .
“(Master said she had a present for you, right?)”
“(Uh, ohh . She did, yeah . )”
“(So I was kinda thinking about that, and I got an idea… why don’t we~ get her something too?)”
“(Like, a present?)”
“(Yes . )”
So she was thinking about that . Huh .
Pretty surprising when all she did was swipe away other people’s treats and desserts .
“(Not a bad idea, actually . Master will be happy too . )”
“(Great! Then let’s pick one out together, on the next off day maybe?)”
“(Sure, let’s . )”
“(It’s a promise!)”
She put out her pinky finger, and I wrapped my own around hers .
And with a light shake, we let go .
And that ended our little rendezvous…
“(… Umm, also,)”
Right as I was feeling a pang of regret over having to go back out, Filly continued the conversation .
“(We… said it right…?)”
“(S-said what?)”
“(That I’ll become a good wife . And that, you’ll become a good husband . )”
“(We, did . )”
I nodded awkwardly while Filly looked away abashed .
“(Um, and, I, so I heard about this from Mother, right… … )”
―― That moment .
I, at first, failed to realize just what had happened .
In the darkness where I could only make out an outline, Filly’s face closed in to mine and――――
We kissed .
―――― That is what had happened .
Something, something very soft had just touched my lips .
“(Ehe . Ehehe . )”
Her face now at the original position, Filly giggled as if to gloss over the fact that that just happened .
“(A husband and wife have to do this… she said . )”
“(So they have to… huh . )”
“(Y-yes . They uh… have to . )”
I wasn’t thinking .
Before I’d realized, I’d gotten close, and touched our lips on my own .
To Filly, who was blinking with her long eyelashes in surprise, I said,
“(Have to do it… right?)”
“(R-right . )”
Another kiss .
From Filly this time .
“(Since we, have to… so . )”
“(We… do . )”
We,
Had to, after all .
Under the darkness of the bedsheets .
Enveloped within the heat of 3 bodies .
Inside the space where our breaths collided .
And right beside Rakel, whom we were careful not to wake――
―― We kissed . We kissed and kissed . Many, many times .
That was my,
Jack Lieber’s, first kiss .
