“Right, now that I think about it, I should clear up that misunderstanding about grabbing her leg.”
“Geld-kun… huh? Leg?”
“Yeah, yeah. That whole thing about me being a perverted leg fetishist.”
“Yeah… I was wondering why we were having this conversation here.”
Well, yeah, you’d think that… You’d expect a confession, but instead, you get a leg fetish coming-out. Makes no sense.
“That was because I wanted to make a Foot Shackle specifically for Millie.”
“…………Huh?”
“I really wanted to measure her ankle size. I forced her a little to let me measure it.”
“…………Huh?”
“I couldn’t exactly explain that, since it was to lock her up and restrain her in that room.”
“…Yeah. I get that, but…”
“Right, how did it feel when you had it on? I thought it was pretty well made.”
Come to think of it, I almost forgot the customer review. I need to find out the points for improvement by directly asking the person about their experience for the next run.
“What do you mean, how did it feel? Hmm, it was kind of squishy and gross.”
“Huh?”
“What was that thing anyway? At first, I thought it was some kind of harassment, but it wasn’t, right?”
“That was… to make it not hurt, like a cushion…”
“O-oh, I see. Yeah, it didn’t hurt, for sure.”
“…Thank you for your valuable feedback.”
Should I have stopped when I came to my senses halfway through…? But I found the Harem Party thanks to making that… It shouldn’t have been a waste.
No, I know the points for improvement now, so let’s just say everything’s fine. Next time, I’ll just use a leather belt or something to tie her up.
I feel like Millie’s looking at me with a hint of exasperation, but I’ll shut down the criticism with a resolute attitude.
“Right, what was that thing? That jewel in the back of the room.”
“I wonder. What kind of room was that, anyway?”
“Huh? Don’t you know, Geld-kun?”
“All I know is that if I lock Millie up there and have those guys rescue her, something will happen. I have no idea what happened, though.”
“…Huh? But, opening that door means the fate of the world…”
“Oh, that was just for kicks. I just wanted to say something that sounded cool.”
Oh, Millie’s glaring at me… with narrowed eyes. It’s gone beyond exasperation and turned into a reproachful gaze.
“What was that thing that disappeared at the end?”
“It ran outside really fast.”
Ah, the intensity of her narrowed eyes has increased even more.
“Geld-kun. It was tough for me after that, you know? I was wondering how it disappeared, what the fate of the world meant, and who that guy was in the end.”
“Oh, uh… well, it’s definitely true that he’s carrying some kind of fate. He’s supposed to save us from some kind of crisis that will happen in the near future.”
“That’s way too vague…”
“That’s the Oracle’s fault. It doesn’t tell me properly.”
To be exact, my memory is bad. I didn’t remember much in the first place, and it’s been years since I came here, so I don’t remember anything anymore.
“So, what you said about a role was about the Oracle.”
“Yeah, that’s right. I did what I was told for now, so my role is over.”
I was wondering why she was accepting the Oracle so naturally, but maybe it actually exists in this fantasy world. I think I managed to deceive her pretty well.
“Yeah, yeah… I see. Thank you for telling me all sorts of things, Geld-kun.”
Millie seemed to understand something and looked a little refreshed. I guess some of her questions were resolved. It feels like we’re about to wrap things up.
“I’m sure you’re curious about it from Millie’s perspective. But I’m sure you understand, don’t tell anyone else. If you tell someone, their family will be at odds with the Waslein Family.”
“I won’t tell, but… is that Waslein Family thing true?”
“If you’re curious, why don’t you come to my family’s place during summer vacation? I’ll have dozens of servants welcome you and let you indulge in extravagance.”
“No, thanks. Well, I’m going home now.”
Ah, the blissful time is over. I need to think of an excuse to bring her here again…
“Millie, it’s fine for you to go home, but are you okay walking through the Boys’ Dormitory alone?”
“Huh?… Ah, I might not like that.”
“Alright, then I’ll walk you back.”
“O-okay. Sorry?”
“Don’t worry about it. If we were in the opposite situation, I’d be the one asking you to walk me back.”
I got the established fact that Millie came out of my room and walked through the Boys’ Dormitory with me in the ideal form of helping Millie.
I left the room with her, thanking Claire from the previous run, who is now gone, in my heart for hammering the concept of established facts into me.
My room is located in a relatively secluded area, so the distance to walk is longer, which makes it easier for people to notice. And the more people who witness it, the more the established fact will be strengthened.
Unfortunately, I’ll be going on a journey with the Harem Bastard in the future, but until then, I’ll be treated as my woman, at least in the eyes of others, regardless of the actual situation. This is my cool plan to keep the countless bad bugs swarming around Millie as far away as possible.
“Oh, right. Geld-kun, you got angry because my acting was bad, right?”
“…Because it was terrible.”
I walk side by side with Millie through the Boys’ Dormitory, especially slowly. The glares I’m getting would normally make me feel unpleasant, but I’ll forgive them today.
“It wasn’t bad! It’s Geld-kun’s fault for suddenly telling me to do that. Besides, Geld-kun’s acting is bad too.”
“…What did you say? That’s unacceptable.”
It’s not just people looking at us, it’s becoming a bit of a commotion. Millie doesn’t seem to care at all, but is this kind of thing a daily occurrence for her?
“Your acting as a bad guy was good, but when you were getting hit, like ‘Gwaah’ or ‘Ghuhaah,’ you were just reading the lines.”
“When I was getting hit… Oh, I had a lot of things to think about, like dropping the key or flying towards the kitchen.”
I managed to get out of the Boys’ Dormitory safely. It was reckless to bring such a mysterious, sexy, pure, and beautiful girl into the Boys’ Dormitory, where monkeys in the middle of puberty live. If there’s another chance, I’ll go to the Girls’ Dormitory.
“Ah, so dropping the key was also on purpose.”
“Of course. You don’t usually drop a key at such a convenient time.”
I managed to escape from the monkey’s nest, but it’s already dark, and there’s a possibility that wild monkeys are lurking in the darkness. I’ll walk her to the Girls’ Dormitory.
“But… hehe… guhaah… hehehe.”
“Huh? Huh? Hey, hey, Millie-san. You’re not laughing at my desperate and great acting, are you?”
“B-but. You looked so evil, but why was the last part so… hehehe, ahahahaha.”
T-this girl…! It would be one thing if she was barely holding it in, but she’s finally laughing out loud…!
“Ah, ah, ah. I’m so shocked by being laughed at that my lost memories are about to be recovered… I see someone crying like a child…”
“Geld-kun! That’s, that’s enough! It’s Geld-kun’s fault! Forget it again!”
“Ah, there you are! Millie, your curfew is… Oh, it’s the pervert again! What are you doing to Millie… Huh?”
Ugh, that blonde twintail is here again, trying to disturb my rendezvous with Millie. But right now, it looks like Millie is grabbing my clothes and shaking me violently, rather than me doing anything to Millie. She can’t hide her confusion at the unexpected sight.
“Ah, Melissa-chan. Your curfew isn’t yet, right?”
“That’s true, but… where have you been with this pervert until this hour?”
“I was in Geld-kun’s room. And now, he’s walking me back…”
“R-room!? Hah, you pervert! Did you force Millie again…”
“Stop it, Melissa-chan! It’s not like that! I went to his room today.”
“Millie!? You went to his room yourself…? What were you two doing there…?”
“Huh?… Well, it’s a secret?”
“Millie!?”
Melissa is worrying about Millie while cursing at me in a frenzy. But even from my perspective, who is being cursed at, Melissa’s claims seem natural, so I don’t feel like arguing. Going to the room of someone who did that kind of thing to you just three days ago is insane. From Melissa’s point of view, who doesn’t know the circumstances, she must think that Millie has gone crazy or is being tricked.
Anyway, it’s going to be a hassle if I get involved, so I’ll go back to the monkey mountain.
