Early morning. The sound of birds starting the day after waking up comes differently depending on the day you hear it.
On days when I was diligent and went out earlier than usual, it gave me energy, and on days when I wanted to get up late when the sun was in the middle of the sky and wanted to be lazy, it was so annoying that I wanted to lock the window.
If so, is it the former or the latter that I hear today, right now?
Well… Actually it doesn’t matter. I’m vaguely aware that I had to wake up now, and as I sensed that someone was eagerly waiting for me, the sound of birds chirping was neither unpleasant or pleasant.
The overlapped hands were warm, and the sunlight that was supposed to hit my face was blocked. Instead, I felt that a hot gaze was directed towards me.
“Merson?”
As I slowly lifted my eyelids, I saw him through my blurred focus. He was holding my hand tightly with his own two hands and looking at me with tense, pitiful eyes.
My voice cracked. I must have called Merson’s name correctly, but I could hear it in my ears that the sound spread faintly like a murmur.
My blurred vision grew clearer, and Merson’s exceptionally handsome face was clearly visible. Merson seemed to catch his name, sprang up from the chair he had dragged to the bedside.
“Erina, are you okay?”
I’m okay, there’s nothing……
The eyelids that I had been opening at most went down halfway. Wait, yesterday…….
Merson left, and a demon returned. He said something I couldn’t understand, but I understood one thing. That he wanted to kill me.
I felt angry and helpless, and I struggled with terrible pain. No matter how wide I opened my mouth, I couldn’t breathe, and the pain was as if my jaw was going to fall out.
“I was worried about what would happen if Erina didn’t wake up.”
Merson hugged me lightly. A soft hand caressed my back.
Yes. When my body was about to be engulfed with death, you…….
“Did you save me?”
I could feel Merson’s head shaking over my shoulder.
“I just accepted Erina.”
It was you who held me in your arms and cared for me tenderly.
“Then, who saved me?”
“It’s Erina.”
I got out of Merson’s arms and faced him.
“What are you talking about?”
Oh, maybe when I fell into the depths of consciousness, my second self appeared and used a tremendous power that I did not know to defeat the demon?
“I felt Erina’s anger. Your will to live. It’s also very intense. And I soon found out about it. How did Erina feel when you faced the situation?”
What is he saying now? So, the demon noticed that I was cursing at him with my eyes and ran away in fear?
My expression distorted grotesquely, unable to understand Merson’s exact meaning. Merson grinned and brought his forehead to mine.
“Erina won. It will never happen again. In the future.”
“How do you know that?”
“Because he ran away crying.”
“All of a sudden?”
“Yes, all of a sudden.”
As he spoke, he kissed me briefly. His sharp, straight nostrils rubbed the side of my nose. It felt like the courtship of an animal.
“Are you sure? Last night will never happen again.”
He said it with conviction. Like talking about something very natural, like ‘sugar is sweet,’ or ‘the sky is blue.’.
“So. You can stop being nervous now.”
Nervous? Who?
My hands, exposed outside the blanket, were shaking like an aspen tree. Upon realizing one thing, hundreds flock to me. It wasn’t just the hand. My shoulders, my teeth, and everything in my body was trembling, unable to forget the horrors of yesterday.
This was not my will, and I could not control it with my mind.
I looked at Merson in bewilderment. His eyes seemed to look all right, kind and warm.
When I saw it, my heart felt like it was melting away. Tears welled up in my eyes as a result of it, and it looked like something was about to come out of my throat.
“It’s okay, Erina. Really. Trust me.”
He kissed my eye. Before the tears formed, he sucked them in with his lips, preventing them from flowing over my cheeks. As the comforting words and kisses continued, I was resting my forehead comfortably on his shoulder.
“Thank you.”
For being by my side at times like this
It felt like my mind was clearing as I was quietly able to smell his body scent. It instills a strange sense of confidence that I can do anything reckless.
Just being by his side feels so reassuring and fills the empty space in my heart, so thinking that I might not have been able to see him forever… huh?
“Wait…….”
Jab! I slammed him on the shoulder enough to make a noise and pushed Merson away. Why does my hand feel more tingly? I couldn’t stand my pride being hurt.
As if Merson knew my intentions, he smiled brightly. What are you smiling at?!
“Why are you here?”
“Because it’s our house.”
Do I have to say it twice?
“You have to go to the Demon King’s castle! Why are you here?”
“I don’t have to go.”
Merson climbed onto the bed and hugged me around the waist. As he lowered his head to kiss me, I covered my mouth with my hand and pushed him away.
“Who said it?!”
“I don’t have to go anymore.”
“That is your wish!”
“That is my wish, but it was also true.”
Merson kept trying to kiss me for a chance, so I eventually got out of bed. Kissing is not the problem now!
“Tell me the truth.”
“Erina, after going to the Demon King’s Castle, do you think I will be able to come back here on my own?”
“No, not at all!”
You are the one who whines for energy even if you use a little bit of magic, how can you defeat the demons?
