Chapter 1604: Nebula’s New Creation ⑤
After visiting Jutia-san, I finally went to visit Ein-san. It seems that the Opinion Exchange Meeting she had with the World Maid Association had already ended, and when I visited Kuro’s castle, she pleasantly welcomed me.
[Welcome, Kaito-sama.]
[Hello, I’m sorry for the sudden visit today.]
[No, Kaito-sama is always welcome here. It’s just, my apologies. Kuromu-sama is currently away at the moment, attending a regular meeting for her trading companies.]
[Ahh, no, this time, I didn’t come here for Kuro, but for you, Ein-san.]
It seems that Ein-san thought I came to visit Kuro. Indeed, after inquiring about her situation once, I simply said “Do your best over there” without stating the purpose of my inquiry before visiting them again. That being the case, it’s not surprising that Ein-san thought my business was for someone else, not for her.
The reason why I didn’t tell her my business when I first asked her via hummingbird was because I didn’t really want to get involved in whatever mysterious rituals the Maid World is doing……
[Kaito-sama wanted to see me?]
[Yes, actually, Nebula has cultivated new tea leaves and I’m shari———-] n0𝐯𝑒𝑙𝑢𝕊𝗯.𝗰0𝓂
[Thank you very much!!!]
[———–Wait, Ein-san!?]
I hadn’t fully conveyed all of my intentions yet, but before I knew it, Ein-san instantly appeared before me. She held my hands with both of hers, looking at me with sparkling eyes.
She’s just like Jutia-san…… No, her intensity felt even greater than hers. Moreover, she’s so close…… close enough that if I move a little bit, we would end up kissing.
[……Well then, why don’t we go further and have a kiss? Kaito-sama is the one I love second in the world, but as someone of the opposite sex, you are the one I love the most, so I’m completely fine with it, you know?]
[Hahh!? Wait, E- Ein-san!?? W- W- W- What are you suddenly……]
[……Fufu, please excuse me. I found myself wanting to tease Kaito-sama a little bit.]
Ein-san said, a mischievous smile on her lips…… Ein-san may appear cool, but she does have a reasonably playful side like this, so she occasionally engages in teasing words or actions like this.
It was the same when we were taking a mixed bath during the Six Kings Festival, but the fact that I couldn’t tell how serious she was being is somewhat bewitching.
As I was thinking this, Ein-san pulled her face away from mine, lightly stroking her lips with her finger. Due to her previous statement though, my gaze naturally shifts towards her lips.
[……By the way, Kaito-sama. Out of simple curiosity, I have a question……]
[Yes?]
[If one kisses while time is stopped, would those count in the number of kisses one does? Or perhaps, do kisses not count if the other party isn’t aware of it?]
[……Eh? W- Why are you asking…… Eh? D- Don’t tell me……]
[I wonder, what do you think? Fufufu.]
As I watched Ein-san giggle with a playful smile on her lips after saying that, I felt like my cheeks became warmer than they were just a moment ago.

Serious-senpai : [Fuaaahhh———–!?]
? ? ? : [Ah, she got blown away by the unexpected surprise attack.]
