Chapter 120: Omake (2/2)

“…I cannot say I am not ashamed.”

“Eh?”

“After all, I feel relieved and comfortable to have you touching me like this, Amane-kun, but I do feel embarrassed…erm, my heart flutters.”

“I can’t tell from your face though.”

“…Will you not laugh at me if you can see it?”

“Laugh at you…? I think I’ll just look at your face and find you cute.”

Amane might retaliate, but it was more likely that Mahiru’s embarrassed self would be so adorable, his heart would be writhing.

She was cute in appearance, voice, gesture, personality, and obviously, she would be cute if she was bashful. Amane, who was sunk several times on this day, could easily conclude this.

Once he answered her seriously, Mahiru closed her eyes, and headbutted Amane’s chest.

“It-it is because you always say such things…this is the bad thing about you, Amane-kun.”

“Which part?”

“…You have no self-awareness at all.”

“No, you’re the one not realizing that you’re out to kill, Mahiru.”

“That is not true. You have so much destructive power, Amane-kun.”

She rolled her forehead about, clinging close while wrapping her arms around Amane, “I suppose it is due to Shuuto-san’s teachings.” she muttered.

Amane did not understand why his father’s name was mentioned.

Nevertheless, there was no doubt that Mahiru was being embarrassed. In a certain sense, the payback worked.

If he said anything more, Mahiru might never lift her head again. He remained silent as he patted her head.
