Chapter 1474 – Transformation of the Devotion Monster – Part 3
After resting in the rest room, just as Illness had expected, Kaito enjoyed bathing once more in several baths, before he returned to his room.
Kaito wanted to have a few drinks for the evening, so after Illness finished dressing, she went to his room with wine and snacks.
[Thank you. Aoi-chan and Hina-chan were with me at the afterparty, so I refrained from drinking alcohol…… but I want to have some drink before going to bed.]
At the Flying Board Competition’s afterparty, together with Kaito were the underage Aoi-chan and Hina-chan, so he could be considered as the group’s oldest. Due to Shallow Vernal’s blessing, he never gets drunk, but he refrains from getting tipsy.
Relaxed and still feeling the excitement and joy of the victory, Kaito felt the desire to have a small drinking party, so he asked Illness to prepare it for him.
[Illness-san is on your day off today, right? In that case, how about joining me for drinking?]
[Well theeeen, please don’t mind me taking you up for your woooord and joining you for a driiiiink.]
After receiving Kaito’s invitation to drink wine with him, Illness poured wine into Kaito’s glass, then poured some into her own glass and after lightly toasting with Kaito, she started to drink.
Thereupon, as if a sudden thought came to his mind while enjoying his alcohol and snacks, Kaito suddenly asked Illness.
[Speaking of which, is there anything you want to do or to have, Illness-san?]
[Oyaaaaa?]
[Ahh, well, I don’t think we’ve talked about that matter that much…… I don’t mean to force you to answer if you don’t want though.]
Kaito’s words made Illness unusually think for a bit. After all, if she were to be asked what she wants to do, it is to see Kaito being happy and to do her best to serve Kaito, which could already be said to have come true already.
As for what she wants to have, Illness basically has no worldly desires. With the large amount of salary she’s receiving as one of Phantasmal King’s Executives, her salary as a maid at Lilia’s mansion and her salary from Kaito are almost untouched.
[What I want huuuuuh. Thinking about it agaaaaain, that’s rather difficult to answeeeer. I’m sorry for answer a question with a questiooooon, but if it’s Kaito-samaaaa, what would you waaaaaant?]
[Me? Let’s see…… Speaking of what I want to do, I want to play games for the first time in a long time. I got heated up with my game talk with Aoi-chan earlier after all. If it’s something I want to have…… I guess I wanna eat that cheese on Illness-san’s plate?]
[Kuhihi, you do know that answeeeeer is a bit too unfair, riiiiiight? Here you gooooo.]
[Thank you…… No, well, you see, I feel like if I were to irresponsibly say “I want this”, it would suddenly appear in front of me……]
[Thaaaaat certainly seems likelyyyyy.]
In fact, if Kaito had clearly desired something, there’s a high possibility that Shallow Vernal, who had always been reading his mind, would make a move. Knowing this herself, Illness only chuckled.

Then, after hearing Kaito’s response, Illness seemed to think once more before speaking.
[I can’t say it’s something I want to dooooo, but I do feel like going on an excursiooooon.]
[An excursion? Like, a trip?]
[That’s riiiiiight. When Milady is not heeeeere, I would often stay behind to take care of the househooooold. Seeing everyone go out for the Sacred Tree Festival and the Six Kings Festivaaaaal, I’m also feeling some enviousneeee……]
[…….Illness-san?]
Hearing Illness stopping halfway through her words and becoming silent, Kaito curiously tilted his head. Thereupon, Illness smiled and lightly shook his head.
[……This way of saying it is cowardly, isn’t iiiiiit? Even though I actually have a wiiiiish, saying it in a roundabout waaaaay, expecting others to perceive iiiiiiit…… is despicableeeee.]
[U- Unnn?]
[Kaito-samaaaa, there’s nothing in particular that I waaaaant, but I thought of what I want to doooooo.]
[What is it?]
Looking straight into the eyes of the inquiring Kaito, Illness muttered, the look on her face filled with heartfelt love.
[……I’d like to go on an excursion with Kaito-samaaaa. If it’s possibleeeee, I’d like to spend a few days with youuuu.]
[……With me?]
[Yeeeees. Will you grant me my wish somedaaaay?]
It was a very rare situation, even from Kaito’s point of view, for Illness to clearly state her own wishes. Naturally, there was no way Kaito could reject such a straightforward request, and he nodded his head with a firm expression on his face.
[I understand. By all means, let’s go. Let’s discuss the details of where to go and other such details once again later.]
[……Thank youuuuu…… It makes me very happyyyyyy.]
Perhaps feeling really happy that Kaito had agreed, a happy smile appeared on Illness’ lips.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [It’s over…… It doesn’t seem like they’d go out somewhere right away, but it is decided that Kaito would be going on an overnight trip with Illness, right? Of course, just the two of them…… Isn’t this completely that? Illness Route flag has been raised…… It’s over.]
