He felt as if he was lucky enough to save his own life … it had to be a misconception, it had to be a misconception!
How could a gentle and generous beauty like Houjou-senpai possibly do something so cruel?
"Senpai, you're such a joker."
"This isn't a joke, junior."
'Haha … heehee …' The two of them grinned at each other.
'Please, it's a joke, alright!? It's so scary!! '
Seiji's mouth twitched.
He decided not to think too deeply about what this beautiful maid-senpai in front of him was hiding behind her smile …
'Yep, it's fine as long as I don't overthink it.'
…
Summer Night and Hitaka returned.
When they returned, Seiji was in the living room playing with the cat … whoops, he was feeding Shika Kagura with snacks.
"You two … seem to have had a good time today."
"You two … seem to have had a hard time today?"
Seiji couldn't help but stop his actions when he saw the two girls who seemed exhausted. Shika Kagura bit down on his candy and fingers.
"Yeah … we ran into some trouble." Summer Night sighed.
There was actually a trace of vicissitudes in the tone of this sentence? Just what did they run into!?
Seiji was rather stunned.
Then, he noticed that Hitaka was looking at Shika Kagura with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
'Oh, I see … or as expected.'
Seiji looked towards the amnesiac girl.
He discovered that she was sucking on his fingers.
"Hey! Don't lick! Don't suck! "
"Hey … but there's still a smell on it ~"
"Stop licking even if there's a smell! Are you really a cat!? "
Seiji's face reddened slightly as he retorted.
'I have to remember that feeling just now … the hell! Forget, hurry up and forget!! '
The number of memories that needed to be sealed increased again.
Why did he say 'again'?
That was because all sorts of things had happened during the entire day that he had spent with Shika!
Seiji's rationality was shaken by this powerful and adorable creature, and he had no choice but to continuously seal his memories. Otherwise, he might really become an irreversible existence!
'Sigh …'
It was not Seiji who sighed.
Instead, Hitaka sighed softly and retracted his gaze helplessly.
She was, after all, a reasonable person. She knew that the trouble brought about by the Reaper's Curse … the misfortune was not determined by her own will.
So, even though it was a difficult day with the Grand Mistress, he had no reason to hate or resent Shika Kagura.
She quickly regained her composure.
Noticing that the Grand Mistress didn't waver, Hitaka couldn't help but admire her in his heart. He was proud to serve such a master.
But in fact …
Why did I have the urge to punch Seiji Haruta in the face?
Summer Night didn't understand.
However, she did have this urge, especially when she saw him and Shika Kagura playing intimately.
An inexplicable anger welled up in his heart, and he was about to blurt out something. He barely managed to change his words into a normal and calm tone.
Was it because he was having a hard time investigating and got into trouble, while Seiji was leisurely spending his days in his room … causing him to feel unbalanced?
'Honestly, you can't be so childish, Wanhua Summer Night!'
The Grand Mistress warned herself in her heart and regained her composure.
There was a brief moment of silence.
The three of them adjusted their emotions in this short period of time.
As for the last one …
"Brother, give me another candy ~"
"No, you can't eat too many snacks before dinner."
"Mmm … stingy!"
Shika Kagura puffed up his cheeks.
'So cute! Just … just give me one more … '
"Haruta-kun."
Summer Night's voice brought Seiji back to his senses.
"I'm going back to my room to rest … after dinner, we'll talk about that."
"Oh … okay."
After Seiji nodded, Summer Night walked off with Hitaka following behind her.
Seiji looked back at Shika Kagura after watching the two of them leave.
"Little Shi …" He smiled. "How about I teach you how to draw?"
…
After dinner.
Seiji took Shika Kagura back to his room. Not long after, he left by himself and returned to the living room.
Summer Night was pouring tea for him.
"How did you do it?" she asked.
"I had her draw by herself for a while." Seiji shrugged. "I told her that I hoped that she'd show me a nice drawing later and surprise me … something like that."
Summer Night blinked and put down the teapot.
"You're quite good at coaxing girls."
"She's just a child right now, and a good one at that. She's easy to deal with."
Seiji walked over to the table and sat down. He picked up a cup and teapot and poured some tea for himself.
"Girls … I wouldn't dare to say that I'm good at coaxing … actually, I'm not good at dealing with women."
Summer Night was rendered speechless.
She felt an urge to beat him up again!
This time, the reason was much clearer.
"Houjou-san has a very good evaluation of you. This is the first time that she's praised a boy so much in front of me."
So don't lie through your teeth! Admit it! Haruta Seiji, you're a …
… What is he?
An experienced womanizer? No, that's not right. He was just a useless otaku not long ago, and even now … he's still an otaku.
When it came to otakus, one would think of introverted people who weren't good at dealing with others, especially women … so was he actually telling the truth?
No, no, that couldn't be right!
Summer Night's mind was in a mess.
The boy in front of her was sunny, handsome, hearty, and honest … he was a top-notch handsome boy in the eyes of girls, but his hobbies were otakus. In that case, how should she describe him?
… A handsome otaku?
An idea flashed through Grand Mistress's mind.
'That's right, that's it!
Although it still feels a little awkward, there's no mistaking it. A handsome otaku who's popular with girls and skilled at dealing with them … that's you, Haruta Seiji!
So stop denying it!! '
"Is that so? Senpai is doing me the honor. "Seiji scratched his face awkwardly." I thought that I almost made her angry. "
Angry? How was she angry!?
Summer Night recalled the rare sweet smile that Houjou-san had on her face as she spoke to him, and felt a little irritated.
Honestly!
But … she couldn't tell if he was faking it or not.
No, it was impossible for him to fake it to such an extent.
This person was truly like this …
'Ah, that's right, that's why Houjou-san knows … that's why the girls know …'
Summer Night seemed to understand.
"Haruta-kun, you're just so … cool."
Seiji was rendered speechless.
Why did Grand Mistress suddenly say such a thing?
And he felt like he had heard something similar before … even though it sounded like a compliment, it also felt like needles were pricking him.
Just as Seiji was feeling confused, Summer Night took a sip of tea from her teacup as her expression gradually turned serious.
"Let's get to the main topic.
The method to help Shika Kagura recover her memories … "
Seiji tossed the idle chatter to the back of his mind upon hearing this, and his expression became serious as well.
"Before we talk about the method to recover her memories, I need to first explain that there are three possibilities for Shika Kagura's current situation.
The first possibility is that her soul was injured in battle, and her mind and consciousness were greatly affected, causing her to lose her memories.
The second possibility is that after she lost in battle, she triggered a hidden spell that caused her to lose her memories.
The third possibility is a combination of the two above. Her memory loss was caused by a spell, as well as the injury to her soul … or it could be said the other way around, but the meaning is the same. "
Seiji raised his eyebrows in surprise.
