'So... my head is on her lap right now. Shit...'
I didn't think much when she asked me to do this and she didn't think much when asking about it either.
She is... as pink as our Anna's heart and this look is very damn hottttttt but, I'm as red as my eyes right now.
It was just on a whim but, this sudden embarrassment is quite something.
The reason she asked me to do this was because of the sudden question that I had but, that wasn't important at the moment.
My heart was a loudspeaker right now, beating in harmony with her heartbeat.
The sound of heartbeats filled this quiet and lovely garden and I didn't even know what I should think at this moment…
Her lap was soft, warm, and wooooonderful, and her shaking hand that was lovingly caressing my head was strangely even more... good~.
Many weird thoughts were clouding my mind which shouldn't be there as an almost twelve-year-old and I knew if someone reads them, they would definitely not like it because I was practically young but... this can't be helped right now.
I knew if I can read minds, her mind especially, then the things I will get would be pretty 'colorful' but... that wasn't even the thought on my mind right now.
The situation is dangerous, we have to calm down, one of us must calm down and calm the other and I knew this person, this girl, this 'friend' of mine, won't be stopping her gooooood hand or let me stand up from her lap.
So I had to do something... I must do something! I must! I don't want to but I have to!
Even my ever-calm heart wasn't helping me right now, and neither my mind was on the right track.
We shouldn't do this. I should not.
It hasn't been some days since we met. We had just come back from our first date too.
This strange feeling I was feeling right now was soooooo good that I genuinely did not want to stand up but... oh.
Why do I have to stand up and move away from this wonderful warm lap and this gentle smooth hand?
I just have to clear this atmosphere and make things calm down right?
It should be easy when thinking with this somewhat calm mind.
First, I should calm this wildly beating bastard heart. Then say something to take her out of her wild fantasies, which will calm her heart, and she will come back to this moment.
Then this strange atmosphere that was making the two of us who had some of the strongest minds here behave , the atmosphere that 'they' were created, should also clear up, hopefully.
It was their fun, and I could confirm that they actually were here from this, just like Anna said.
The situation was strange and I only noticed it after a few moments but, this was definitely potent.
I knew their existence and Lucy was helping me right now so I was somewhat better but, Rein had no one like Lucy to wake her up on her own.
This warm fuzzy feeling, this red-pink colorful experience was definitely amazing but, those innocent ones didn't know we couldn't go much farther.
I had to stop. I still don't want to but I have to...
'The experience was nice~ and I... we, will definitely try it some other time but, not today. And I should go there and talk with them after this too.'
As Anna said, this should be their home so I could do nothing about it but, there was no need to do anything about them in the first place.
They must be here from a long time ago if I was thinking right and, they were an inseparable part of this place.
It was quite something to have them here but, well, the current situation was not right.
'Haaa... this was sweet~.'
Clearing my mind from this pink spirit influence, which was definitely strong despite being from some lowest-grade spiritual creatures. So, well, this meant there was a good bunch of them here.
After my mind was out of that nice~ fog, I looked at this innocent pink blush she had right now.
She looked cute, and her hands felt warm on my head but this blank expression was too much for us poor little kids.
"Rein? Wake up, ma'am," I said a little loudly and covered my hand with some materialized Solnova and caressed her head.
I was now caressing her head the same way as her and it didn't take even a minute after that one.
"Hmm? E-Eon? What...?" she asked as soon as she calmed down with that warm touch and looked at me on her lap.
This was strange. I knew she felt this was very very strange.
She was the one to ask me to get on her lap, she was the one that was playing with my hair for the last ten minutes and she was the one that was doing this because she wanted to do this but... she didn't know the reason.
I knew and I will tell her later but, she was back and that was enough for now.
This started because I was worried about something and the way I just grabbed her hand after she came back to reality reminded her why this all started.
She was confused about something and I knew she didn't have known the reason but she couldn't do anything about something that wasn't even present in this realm, right?
She was strong and I knew that more than well. After I teach her properly, in a few more years, she will be able to do that too.
But that wasn't important right now. I was genuinely concerned about something after watching that young black-clothed person.
Looking up at the now calm but confused Rein, in her beautiful eyes, I blinked my eyes with a different confusion of my own.
"Do... you think there's some kind of hero of this world. Not the ones people believe in. A hero like those in a novel or story.
A real hero of an actual story that is super strong or has those super strong skills, great wisdom, godly weapons, and unmatched subordinates?
What do you think the purpose of those people desiring a hero's life is if there's such a being?
What do you think would happen if this world is actually just a novel, we are some side characters, and the main characters also exist elsewhere.
Just person we just saw. Just like you, Carla, Alf, or even Anna.
If there's already you all here, then what could be the reason for an anomaly, a reincarnation… like me?"
