Shinji,
who slept more leisurely than usual with Renka, woke up later than Alvin and
the others. As they were flirting in bed for a while, there was a knock on the
door of their room.
「Um,
Renka-san... it's time for breakfast」
With a
modest knock, they hear Shuro's voice, and Renka hurriedly replies.
「O-okay!
I'll get ready right away!」
「Yes...
I'll be waiting」
Renka
breathes a sigh of relief as Shuro's presence disappears at the door. She knew
that if Shuro, a pure girl, saw her in her current state, she would surely be
embarrassed. And if the other person was embarrassed, she would feel
embarrassed too.
「Oh
well... I guess I'll get up...」
Shinji
crawled out of bed, despite the feeling of sadness. As if to hide from his
gaze, Renka puts on her underwear and her clothes in the sheets, then opens her
mouth.
「I
know you're off today, but you have something to do, right?」
「Yeah.
I'm sorry but I have to work as an Apostle」
It
made Shinji chuckle. He hadn't seen Hayate and Shizuku in a while, partly
because he was busy preparing for the Wolf family.
「Then
it can't be helped...」
While
following the disappointed Renka, Shinji had breakfast with her.
◇ ◇ ◇
After
breakfast with Renka, Shinji leaves the Wolf house and moves to his home.
There, Marie, Sylphy, and Flair were already sitting around the table as if
they were familiar with someone else's house, enjoying tea time. One of the
seats was empty, and Shinji sat down there.
「Good
morning. Marie, Sylphy, Flair.」
「Good
morning〜♪」
「Good
morning」
「Good
morning! Shinji!」
All
three replied cheerfully to Shinji's greeting as he took his seat. He had often
summoned Flair, so he had seen her often, but Marie and Sylphy had mainly
exchanged thoughts, so it had been a long time since they had seen each other
in person.
「Well,
let's hear the report」
It
would be foolish to make unnecessary small talk with these girls who are
spirits. As long as they have magic power, these spirits will not fall ill and
will give priority to the work given to them by the Goddess. Listening to them
carefully will please the spirits who serve the Goddess.
「Things
are going well for the most part~. Shizuku, Hayate, and Eve are living in
harmony on the outside~」
Sylphy
nodded in affirmation of Marie's words. Flair, who had nothing to do with the
report, left her seat and went to the mini-kitchen to prepare Shinji's drink.
「Maybe
it's the effects of being with Eve, but Hayate and Shizuku haven't been
comforting each other lately. Hayate's heart was broken, but now that she's
fallen in love with a man, she doesn't seem to want Shizuku as much」
「Maybe
it's because Shizuku feels guilty too~, but she hasn't been comforting either
Hayate or Eve~. She used to be all over Hayate~, but now that Eve's in the same
inn, she's not so much~」
「Well,
Shizuku seems to have an unclear attitude. She's probably afraid of breaking up
with Hayate by saying goodbye to her...」
It's
not that Shizuku dislikes Hayate. It's just that she's grown to love her future
partner （Eve） more and more,
and Shinji thinks that her feelings for her have grown so strong that she can't
help herself. TinnyTL

In
fact, Shizuku had moved on to Eve, and she was afraid that if she didn't tell
Hayate about it, they might end up fighting. She also didn't dream that Hayate
wanted to break up with her.
On the
other hand, Hayate also heard about Shizuku's obsession from Shinji, so it
never occurred to her to take action. She continues to wait and hope that
Shinji's separation plan will succeed.
The
stalemate was due to the fact that Hayate and Shizuku were not ready to take
the first step.
「Maybe
it's time to give them a push...」
Shinji
muttered, and a teacup filled with tea was placed in front of him. Shinji
stands next to Flair and lightly raises his hand to show his appreciation.
Flair nods in satisfaction and returns to her seat.
「Hayate's
intentions haven't changed, have they?」
「Yes.
She's been practicing her magic but with Heliotrope being so busy at the
moment, she's barely had time for it. Hayate is more active when she's working
in the store」
Sylphy
smiled at Shinji's question. If Hayate chose not to fight as an apostle, Sylphy
had no reason to continue being Hayate's personal spirit. Moreover, Goddess
wouldn't keep attaching high-ranking spirits to an apostle who doesn't fight.
Watching
over the apostles is a proper job, but Sylphy wants to contribute to the
Goddess by working with the apostles to fight strong monsters, like Flair.
「Shizuku
is good too, right?」
「Yes~♪
Her magic is steadily improving~♪. I don't think she has any complaints about
fighting with Eve as an apostle~♪」
As
Marie watched Shizuku continue to practice her magic, she began to think that
she could help her again. Even if it wasn't for the sake of the Goddess, but
for herself and her partner (Eve),
if they could hunt monsters, grow, and eventually be able to do the Goddess'
work, Marie could proudly say that she was contributing to the Goddess. TinnyTL
At
last, Marie and Sylphy were overjoyed to be able to serve the Goddess.
「Marie,
Sylphy. It's still too early to talk to Shizuku and Hayate...」
「I
don't think they're going to fail after all the work they've put into this~noja」
Flair
gives Shinji a half-hearted look. Marie and Sylphy nodded in agreement with
Flair's words, but Shinji kept smiling. In truth, Shinji doesn't think his plan
will fail either, but he doesn't want to let his guard down.
「We
can't be happy until we get the results, right? I'll call Shizuku and Hayate
this evening. I'll meet with them. Marie and Sylphy, can you tell them
respectively? If they can't make it, we'll do it the next day」
「Okay」
「Okay〜♪」
The
two girls nodded in agreement to Shinji's request. Then, Shinji gave them words
of appreciation. It was thanks to Marie and Sylphy's diligent monitoring that
things had gone so smoothly.
「Marie,
Sylphy. Thanks to you two, I'll be able to give a good report to the Goddess.
Thank you」
His
words of appreciation pierced their hearts and filled them with an unparalleled
joy. Sylphy's cheeks almost slackened, but she put on a dignified expression as
if to say that it was natural. -тіпУтլ
「It's
my duty.
Marie,
on the other hand, had a big smile on her face.
「You're
welcome〜♪ If you're grateful I'd like to do that again〜♪」
「Marie?!」
Flair,
who was drinking a cup of tea, almost blew up when Sylphy was startled by
Marie's nonchalant desire for sex.
「Bufo!?
Marie, what are you talkinggggg!」
「Kya〜♪!」
Marie
ran away from Flair, who stood up with her teacup in her hand. Shinji could
only hold his head with one hand as the air started to get messy.
「Huh...」
It was
no wonder that Shinji couldn't help but let out a sigh.
