Chapter 459: Why is it That You Resemble Her That Much? (1/2)

Noir-san is very strong, probably because she's a half-vampire. Because of this, Luna-san had a hard time pulling Noir-san away from me.

But then, Lilia-san finally woke up…… and easily pulled Noir-san away from me. Should I say that it's to be expected from Lilia-san, or should I be astonished at her power that overwhelms even half-vampires……?

After being ripped away from me, Noir-san blankly stared at nowhere for a while before she fell asleep.

And then, as for greeting the Head Chef…… Relying upon Lilia-san's follow-up, I had somehow weathered through it. Good gracious, I'm really grateful that Lilia-san was here to help me.

[……Speaking of which, My Lady? Why is it that you fainted earlier?]

[Ehh!? Ah, t- that is……]

The inn that Lilia-san and the others were staying at is located on the way to the Central Tower from the restaurant, so all of us slowly walked towards their inn.

Carrying the sleeping Noir-san behind her back, Luna-san asked, to which Lilia-san clearly became flustered.

[N- No, it's just that…… I was a bit exposed to the night wind so……]

[No, no, My Lady's body isn't that frail…… No, well, I guess that's fine……]

Although she looked suspicious at Lilia-san's lies, Luna-san didn't pursue the matter any further, perhaps because she owed Lilia-san for stopping Noir-san.

That should be enough to calm Lilia-san down……

[Ahh, Lilia-chan, good evening~~]

[K- K- K- Kuromueina-sama!? G- G- G- Good evening.]

Before she had time to recover though, she began to panic again when Kuro appeared.

Rei-san and Fia-san also hurriedly got down on one knee and tried to bow down, but Kuro stopped them.

[It's been a long time since I've seen you, Aoi-chan and Hina-chan. Are you enjoying the festival?]

[Yes, I'm having a great time.]

[I feel like I've shopped a bit too much today.]

[Ahaha, I see, that's good then.]

Aoi-chan and Hina-chan, who Kuro had already talked to back in the mansion, smiled when Kuro called out to them. Unnn, I think Lilia-san is just too nervous, but well, I guess that's just like her……

Hearing what the two said, Kuro nodded with a smile and taking cloth bags out of nowhere, she handed them to my two kouhais.

[Well then, here. I'll give you some pocket money, so you can have lots of fun tomorrow.]

[……Eh?]

[Kuromu-sama? C- Can we really have this?]

[Of course. This is a different world after all, so enjoy it to the fullest.]

[ [ T- Thank you very much! ] ]

When Kuro told them this with a smile, my two kouhais deeply bowed.

Kuro then turned to Lilia-san and with a slightly apologetic expression on her face, she spoke.

[Well then, Lilia-san. I'm sorry, I have some business with Kaito-kun, so do you mind if I take him with me?]

[Eh? Ah, yes. Of course, it's fine. We've just finished eating anyway……]

[I'm sorry. I'll send some delicious sweets to Lilia-chan and the others in your inn later, so enjoy them with everyone.]

[Thank you for your concern.]
