Morning, Marie unsteadily stood up from the bed .

    She woke up from my arm pillow, collected the clothes that were scattered, and wore them .

    「ーー!!」

    She let out a voice when she was wearing them .

    It was somewhat a painful voice .

    She took a glance towards me . I felt that she would turn to me so I closed my eyes .

    「He didn’t wake up……thank goodness」

    “I woke up”, well, I’m not so insensitive that I would say something like that .

    I felt that Marie wants to do something .

    I don’t know what she wants to do, but I’m thinking of letting her do whatever it is .

    Marie walked, and went out of the room .

    And feeling that, I heightened my hearing, and searched for Marie’s presence .

    “Before Kakeru-san wakes up……I need to make breakfast”

    After whispering something like that, I started to hear sounds coming from the kitchen .

    The sound of the knife, the sound of the utensils, the sound of processing the ingredients .

    It looks like just like she whispered, Marie was making breakfast .

    I raised my body, and sat with crossed feet on the bed .

    Hearing what Marie is doing, I let her do as she likes to .

    After a while, a pleasant smell reached inside the room as well .

    It’s probably something warm, soup’s smell .

    I started to look forward to it .

    And there, Eleanor talked to me .

    『What a nice girl』

    「Yeah」

    『Unlike as usual, you failed as well』

    「You’re talking about yesterday huh . Well, yeah」

    『I thought that you would do it more intensely . Just like with all the women you had until now . Why didn’t you do so?』

    「I just felt like it . I said that “I’ll be gentle” after all」

    『Look how caring you are』

    「Do you want me to be kind to you too?」

    『From you?』

    「Yeah」

    『How disgusting』

    Eleanor said with a happy voice .

    「You don’t want to be treated gently?」

    『Isn’t it too late for that . I’ll doubt your sanity first』

    「That’s harsh」

    『Remember what you had done to me up until now . It’s all your fault』

    「Hmph」

    That might be true .

    Well, even so, I’m not planning on changing on how I use and treat Eleanor .

    She’s a Demon Sword, the only Demon Sword in the world that could take all that I have .

    A girl like this doesn’t need what they call “kindness” .

    『I do not wish for it after all』

    「Didn’t I told you don’t read my mind」

    And while we’re chatting like that, I started to hear voices from outside the room .

    “Good morning . Ara, Marie, what happened to you?”

    “Good morning, Onee-chan . I’m making breakfast for Kakeru-san . ”

    “Breakfast……ah!”

    Fiona held her breath .

    “I see . Kakeru-san did it with you huh . ”

    「Un?」

    I felt something wrong with Fiona’s words .

    What is Marie making? What is it that Fiona could tell with just one look .

    “Shh! Onee-shan, your voice is too loud . ”

    “Ah! Sorry, sorry . ”

    A scolding little sister and apologizing big sister .

    The two of them lowers their voiceーーwell, I could still hear all of it with my 777x hearing though .

    “But, congratulations, Marie . ”

    “Thanks, Onee-chan . Onee-chan is still, not yet?”

    “I……un . ”

    “Why? Don’t you like Kakeru-san?”

    “It’s not that, I like Kakeru-san, but……”

    Fiona paused her words .

    But, what?

    After a moment of silence, they continued .

    “I’m not suitable with Kakeru-san, and there’s no reason to do it after all . ”

    “That’s the same with me you know . A hero like Kakeru-san, in reality, it should’ve been hard for us to just talk to him . ”

    “But still, Marie, you had your life saved, so you have the reason to ‘give something back’ . I, I don’t have something like that . ”

    What, she was holding back because of that, huh .

    “……ne?, Onee-chan, I have a good idea . ”

    “A good idea?”

    Marie lowers her voice once again .

    She lowers it that Fiona couldn’t hear her if she didn’t whisper it to her ears .

    “You should just hold the Demon Sword . ”

    “The Demon Sword? Are you talking about Eleanor?”

    “Un, if you do that, I think that Kakeru-san would save you, right?”

    No, no, isn’t that too much .

    “There’s thatーー!!”

    She let out a loud voice . Loud enough that it could be heard with normal hearing .

    Fiona lowers her voice in a hurry .

    “There was that huh . Good job, Marie . ”

    “But, Onee-chan . I’ll just say this . That, it’s su?per painful you okay . ”

    “How painful is it?”

    “E?to……like getting hit in the stomach while being strangled while all of your limbs turning in a weird direction, and getting burned, all of that at the same time . ”

    Isn’t that too much!

    『Well, that’s about it』

    I flicked Eleanor who said that so calmly with a finger .

    “I see……un, Marie at that time looked very painful after all . ”

    “Un . ”

    “I got it . Then, I’ll try to do it tonight . I’ll search for a chance and touch Eleanor-san . ”

    “Un, do your best, Onee-chan . ”

    The sisters encouraged each other, and the sound of making food continued .

    How should I say this……un, how should I say this .

    『She wants to be yours that much that she’s willing to go that far, huh . What a good girl』

    「Yeah」

    I didn’t feel bad at all with Fiona’s feelings .

    Receiving such a tragic but brave resolution, I wanted to do something with all what I have instead .

    I thought of making her a great first experience that would be a great memory with all that I have .
