Chapter 20 (2/2)

Tamamo floats a similar surprise.

It was a typical beastman's reaction, and it reaffirmed I am in a new world.

「I am sorry, but what does red mean…?」

I knew already but I wanted to hear them say it.

Because I thought that was polite.

「AA, Inaba holds the『Demon Eye』.」

I knew that.

In order to not raise trouble, I'll pretend I don't know.

「Demon Eye…what is that?」

「Inaba can see the colors of emotions.」

The golden eye that the girl holds in her left eye is called『The Demon Eye of Emotion』.

Basically their eye holds a special ability and they can have various effects.

With that being said, it looks like a very useful ability but in actuality I think it is a seemingly troubling ability.

「Hee–」

「Huh? You aren't that surprised, huh. I think it is fairly strange but.」

I returned a vague response. I would deceive to the very end.

Or rather if Inaba said so, that time with Aira would have been absolutely easier.4

Well, me and Aira are already on good terms so everything worked out in the end.

More than that right now there are these girls. I choose my words cautiously.

「So in the end, what type of color is red?」

「Red surely, is a color that should signify love and deep affection.」

So because of that, I look at girls that are ugly based on this world's standards, and they were surprised I would embrace them without feeling any discomfort.

That's why, I want them to believe in my seriousness.

「W-Why!? Dost thou not think anything whilst looking at us!?」

「I think you are very pretty.」

「—–!?」

Inaba's white as snow skin became red.

Inaba's and Tamamo's expression, who returned an original reaction as if they weren't used to being praised, as well as my expression loosened.

But the next instant the girls' expressions became cloudy.

「…Is that so, so thou art red, huh…」

「…」

N? Why did they have such sorrow on their faces?

I wonder if it is fine to express pity?

Since it was excessively quick, I ended up thinking I saw it wrongly.

It seems they are enduring something. It seemed they tried to hide it on their own quickly.

「Mu, which reminds me, we hath brought a souvenir for Nina.」

「Souvenir?」

「Umu, it hast been a pleasure.」

When she said so Tamamo suddenly turned around.

She showed a broad smile to us showing her protruding tooth.5

「Since it hast been a while, why don't we all go?」

「Oh, that's good, how about it Yuuto?」

I don't have a reason to refuse. If possible, I want to learn more about these girls.

I quickly gave my approval and went with everyone.

”Oh that's right, these are all the members that I knew about…”

When I thought so, I had a slightly deep feeling.

Tamamo uses jyaa in her sentences and onus.h.i.+ which I am fairly certain is old-fas.h.i.+oned speech. ↩

I will be leaving the way people call siblings the same as my inner weeb feels it's necessary. For those who don't know Imouto=little sister. ↩

Onee-chan=older sister. ↩

Look back to the chapter Yuuto was trying to convince Aira, he mentioned ”that girl” this is that girl. ↩

The canine that shows on aggressive females in anime. ↩
