52 Episode 52 "Extra Part 3" Rita'S Wishes And "Summoning Slave" (Part 2) ".Txt
'You know what, ...... Cecil. Raphilia, too, listen.
I'm so embarrassed, my heart stops beating.
Still in as calm a voice as possible, Rita tells Cecil and Raphilia.
''There's no way Nagi would use 'Slave Summoning (Summoning Slave)' all the way to the same house.
That's not necessarily true, Mr. Rita.
But Cecil is not convinced.
Shaking her shoulders and stamping her feet, she looks like she's going to run to Nagi at any moment. If Nagi were to call for me──I'm sure he wouldn't be in the mood for it.
I can understand it very well. Because I'm the same person I was just a moment ago.
"There's a possibility that it could be an urgent matter, or perhaps an experiment in skill, or something like that.
'If it was an urgent matter, you'd call me by voice. If it's a skill experiment, it's Nagi and she'll tell you ahead of time.
But then why do you think so much about Nagi-sama?
Cecil nodded his head curiously. An innocent face.
'If I look at the clothes, I'm wondering if Nagi-sama would say they look good on me. Looking at the ring, I hope it matches Nagi-sama's. When I look at the leftover ham from the morning, I see that Nagi-sama likes the meat of a dengara-don wild boar...
──────!
Rita's face turned bright red. What's that line that seemed to be going through someone's head just now? I'm embarrassed ...... that I was thinking about such an embarrassing thing!
I want to roll over with my head in my hands right now.
Rita understands the cause of Cecil's symptoms. I can totally understand what's going on. But I'm too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Rafilia watches the exchange between Rita and Cecil with her elf ears twitching. I want to be a little bit cooler in front of my slave's junior, Rafilia. Besides, it's hard for the two of them to be worried about 'slave summoning' forever.
''Ce, didn't Cecil-chan and Rafilia listen to Nagi? Didn't you tell me exactly what the effect of 'Slave Summoning (Sammoning Slave) LV1' is?
"Summoning Slaves, Level 1.
You can summon any slave (Dorui) to your master.
The summoned slave knows his master's exact coordinates and will come to him "no matter what the situation". Therefore, be careful how you use it.
Also, a summoned slave cannot leave his master's side for a while.
The number of times it can be used is limited to once a day.
─ ─. There can only be one slave that can be summoned! It's not possible for Cecil and Raphilia to react at the same time! Yeah?
What? Yeah, yeah!
At Rita's words, Cecil and Raphilia's eyes widen.
Thank goodness ...... it looks like we managed to fool them.
''Totally, Cecil-chan and Rafilia are both getting ahead of themselves.
Rita sighed, huffing and puffing with her big chest.
'I'm sorry.' 'I'm sorry.'
You may have a misconception about that if you're a slave outside, though. You're not going to be able to use your skills to summon people from the same house. The slaves on the outside might have that kind of misunderstanding. If you're a slave outside, right?
Why do you keep repeating yourself?
'Well, you know, that ............ yes! Aine, what do you think? Hey, Aine!
'If you're Aine, you went to get your laundry ready earlier, right?
That's terrible, Aine!
Come to think of it, before I knew it, my back was light.
Sweat trickled down Rita's forehead as the two slave companions stared at her curiously.
''But as expected of Rita-san. She understands Nagi-sama very well.
Well, yeah.
I'm embarrassed. I would have rushed to Nagi's side. If it weren't for Rita-san, I would have been in a lot of trouble.
It's nothing to worry about, right?
Heh, I love that about you, Rita-san.
─ ─ Wah-uh-uh-uh .............
Rita almost fell to her knees unconsciously at Cecil's gaze that passed straight up.
Why did I look so vain? I should have rushed into Nagi's room with him. ......
With his golden tail hanging down, Rita looked upstairs.
Rafilia, too, has been at the bottom of the stairs for a while now, still in a sitting pose.
Cecil is comparing those two.
''Then, Rita-san. Could you ask Nagi-sama to use 'Slave Summoning LV1'?
He bowed his head, bowing to Rita.
''If this continues, you all won't feel comfortable. I think it would be better to have Nagi-sama use the skill once and understand 'this is what summoning is all about'. Then you'll know if you're really being summoned or if you're just curious about Nagi-sama because you like her.
I see.
Rita nodded. As expected of Cecil-chan. Nagi's 'soul assassin'
That's for sure. If it's like this, Rita will wonder if she's been called. I'm not sure if I've been called or not..." She's been wagging her tail unconsciously since a while ago.
I'm not comfortable with this hovering around like this.
Maybe it's better to ask Nagi to take a look at it and clear it up.
But why me?
That's because Rita-san has been most helpful to Nagi-sama!
with a snap
Cecil's pretty hand points to Rita's chest.
Behind her, Raphilia is nodding in a doggie pose.
''Rita-san is a professional in close combat. She is always at Nagi-sama's side, protecting her at all times. Because of her fighting ability, even Nagi-sama can do her job at ease!
You saved me, too. That bravery that kicked off the black armor is seared into my eyes!
'That's not all! Even the Black Winged False Demon Race was beaten up in no time at all!
'It's amazing! The very 'Golden Beast splits the darkness, and his fist avenges evil. Its eyes burn with righteousness of will, and its figure is the very fruit of beauty. In the arms of the white porcelain, like a goddess, is the soul of love and loyalty to its master. Oh, Rita Melpheus, the beautiful beast. I bless the good fortune of the man who has won your heart.
All right, I'm going to Nagi's.
Rita cradled her head in her face.
It was a mental attack.
It was critical.
It hurt to see Cecil clapping and Raphilia with her big chest. Because they're both completely serious about their praise.
''Awwww! I'm going in! Both of you wait here.
Okay. - Okay.
If you think about it, Nagi is going to be visiting Iris-Hapheumea now, so it's time to get ready. Since it's Nagi, I don't think she's forgotten about it, but there's a chance she's tired and sleeping. If that's the case, it's best for Rita, who has the 'presence of mind' skill, to go check on him. Even through the door, she can at least check if Nagi is awake or not.
Muffling the sound of her footsteps with the supple movements characteristic of a beastman, Rita walks up the stairs.
Nagi's room is at the far end of the second floor, the sunniest room in the house.
Rita listens and proceeds to listen. She can't hear Nagi's voice or any noise.
Every time she took a step forward, she felt uneasy. Is Nagi not feeling well? I wondered if she had fallen ill on the long journey.
Rita's master is a hard worker. Even yesterday, when I thought about it, I spent all day working on elder slime measures during the day and stayed up late to 'rebuild' to save Rafilia at night.........................my face turned red. Is there an order to that kind of thing in Nagi? I've just had my own done, so I'm not sure if it's a long time coming. I'm not going to be able to "Engage" with Nagi until then .......
It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
There is no noise. What are they doing? I wonder if he's sleeping.
I'm sorry master, but we're all worried about you, so ...... that's the excuse, and Rita activates her 'presence detection' skill.
And finally, she noticed what was happening in the room.
'...... Nagi, are you sleeping?'
Gently, Rita knocked on the door.
There was no answer.
It was almost time to go to Iris' house. 'Apointo and Mento?' I heard that he took the first one, so I can't let him be late.
I knocked a little harder once more. There's still no answer.
But ...... the door opens instead. What, why? Nagi, you didn't close the door properly!
The sea breeze flows out of the room.
The door opens by itself in front of Rita, who is staring, "What am I going to do?
I could see the inside of the room. The curtains are swinging by the window. Rita's master is next to it, on the bed. He's lying down with his arms and legs stretched out - asleep.
"Nagi...... master..." "Nagi..." "Master..." "It's time to get up.
Rita whispered in a voice so loud that even she couldn't hear herself.
Because Nagi, you look so comfortable sleeping.
Maybe she was in the middle of getting dressed. Her upper body was in her underwear, with only her pants on tightly. She's in a wide open position, so her right arm is sticking out of the bed. He is breathing peacefully. I guess I'm tired after all.
"Did you ...... master ............ call me ...... with a 'slave summons' ......?
Muttering, Rita slowly walked into the room.
Because Nagi's lips seemed to move.
Because she couldn't let her master's reply go unheard.
With a quickening heartbeat and suppressed breathing, she advances to the side of the bed and kneels beside Nagi.
I listen. I can hear Nagi's breathing in her sleep.
I breathe. I can smell Nagi's scent.
I look up and see my master's sleeping face right there. Our breath is close enough to touch.
Flapping.
The curtains are shaking.
Flapping.
Rita's tail is wagging.
I don't know what to do. I can't move.
Sitting next to Nagi, Rita can't move, as if she's entranced.
"...... That's not fair, Nagi.
It doesn't make any difference whether you use "Slave Summoning LV1" or not. Before I know it, Rita comes next to Nagi.
Right next to her, the profile of her master.
The warmth of Rita's most important person, resting next to her.
It seeps deep into her chest and makes Rita feel so happy she wants to cry.
What should I do? What should I do? I feel like I'm going to burst.
If I don't do something, I feel like I'm going to burst.
What should I do ...... what should I do ...... what should I do?
"...... master.
I noticed that Rita was holding Nagi's right hand with both hands in offering.
You see, only my right arm is sticking out of the bed.
What if I leave it like this and it goes numb and I can't hold the sword when I wake up?
Also, Aine told me to get some practice at .........
Engage your soul.
So...
lightly
Rita pressed Nagi's right hand against her own chest.
A thump, deep in the air. A gentle heat fills Rita's chest. It's a little different than when she has her skills 'rebuilt'. It's natural. Very natural. He's connected to Nagi like it's natural, and like it's natural, Nagi is at Rita's side.
Of course, ...... it feels good, but ...... that's it.
'I'm sorry, Master. I'll take the spanking, just let me practice a little bit of it...
You don't have to think about your vows.
They come from the deepest part of your heart on their own.
'Rita-Melpheus swears. Rita Melpheus vows to form an eternal and immortal bond with Souma-Nagi. They will live together for as long as they live - even after their lives are exhausted, forever. In the next life and the one after that.
I don't know if you can hear me - you can't hear me, can you?
Master.
The person who gave me a precious place to be a halfway decent beast.
I swear that I will always stay close to you and protect this person. And if it is allowed, God - let me be with this person as a soul mate - "Soul Engagement" ............
Cutting off the words, Rita stared at her chest.
............ Nothing is happening.
Huh.
Good.
Because Nagi is sleeping. You can't do this kind of thing alone. I'm not the only one who wants to hear Nagi's vows. It's not fair that I'm the only one who's this nervous!
...... Okay, end of practice.
Gently, Rita put Nagi's hand back on the bed.
The sun was still a bit low. There should still be a little time to visit Iris-Hafeumea.
In a little while, we should all come and wake Nagi up.
And if possible, let's have them use 'Slave Summoning LV1'. I want to learn what it feels like to be summoned, after all. Perhaps we will be able to connect with Nagi more deeply.
With that in mind, Rita stands up.
I'm going to leave the room like this and go downstairs - then I'll tell Cecil and Rafilia that their master is sleeping, and then we'll all help Aine with the laundry. It's a nice day today, so the laundry should dry up nicely. Preferably before the sun is directly overhead.
One last time, Rita looked at Nagi's sleeping face and smiled.
'...... Good night, Master.'
Then, when she was leaving the room, Rita...
His excellent sense of smell led him to notice Nagi's underwear (above) on the floor.
────!
Rita's body stiffened.
Nagi's underwear, on the floor, spread out. The shape of Nagi's underwear was still there, undressed.
The shape of Nagi's chest plate, the shape of her arms, and so on, are still intact enough to be imagined. But above all, Rita was tempted by the scent of Nagi, which she could definitely feel.
Of course, I could feel it, even just now. But this is different.
It's portable (・・・・・・・).
You can always be with your master's scent. What a nice...
What do you think you're doing? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no!
Rita's eyes widened the moment she mouthed the words.
Why is she already hugging Nagi's underwear (above)?
─ I didn't notice.
When did she pick it up? I can't believe you're putting your lightning-quick athleticism to work here.
But you can't. No, no, no, no.
We have to let this go now. A slave stealing the master's underwear and making off with it- Oh, no. It won't be forever. I'll pay you back... I'll pay you back, I promise. What if Nagi doesn't like you?
............ Yeah, that's the idea.
It was a close call.
Rita sighed, huffing and puffing.
Reason had won. Justice had won.
It's okay, master. Rita-Melpheus is a righteous slave. This underwear will be returned immediately...
.........................
.............
I'd like to see ...... but only a little bit of .............
Just once.
Just once, by accident, I just happen to breathe near Nagi's shirt.
I haven't talked to Nagi much today. I want to feel Nagi's presence, at least right next to me.
'──── soooo.'
As it was, Rita inhaled deeply.
I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm talking about.
It's like being squeezed and hugged by Nagi .......
...... that's enough.
It's a good thing that I'm not going to be able to get any more ...... one more time because it's the last time I'm going to be able to ...... the next time it's the last time. I'm going to be ruined....... It's really the last time I'm going to be .............
I'm not going to be able to get rid of it. .................. Nagi. Mr. Five People ...... nagii ......
...... Rita?
Oh, it's Nagi's voice.
Reflexively, Rita turns around. Her ears twitch and her tail flaps.
Like sliding, she goes to Nagi's feet, sitting on the bed.
Her arms still hugging Nagi's underwear.
'............ Huh?'
'Why are you in my room ......, fine, but why are you hugging my shirt, Rita?'
Nagi's, troubled face.
Rita looked to her right, left, down, soo-hah, and took a deep breath, and then looked up, as if to ask for help - and then
Listen to me, Master.
And then I don't know what the hell I told you...
I don't know how many times I've said "I love you" since then.
Eventually I couldn't fake it, and he scolded me for a bit, but in the end he patted me on the head.
'Oh, by the way, when we were in the spa town, you said you were going to spank me when we got to Ilgafa.
Woohoo!
When the master told me what the "spanking" was, I cringed.
But after all, I've been with Nagi today...
Speaking of which, I and everyone else had a favor to ask of Nagi.
Please?
Yeah. You see, the effect of 'Slave Summoning Lv 1'...
In a town by the sea, surrounded by the scent of the sea...
In the distance, I could hear my fellow slaves...
And while sitting by the side of his beloved master (Nagi), exchanging casual words with him...
Rita was strangely satisfied with such a commonplace time.
The end of Rita's wish and "Summoning Slaves (Summoning Slaves)
