It wasn’t a deep kiss, just a starter that he gave her…a quick peck.

「Whoaaaa…he’s kissing the princess!」

He could hear the rattled voice of Juurokuya behind him. It wasn’t as rattled as when she imitated Youran, but it was still pretty flustered…Taiyou simply ignored her.

As the kiss continued, the sucking lips of the princess had a lemon taste. Even though it wasn’t the first, there was a sweetly-sourness to it.

It was a hot kiss that struck the mind, strong even though it lacked fierceness.

Taiyou thought her kiss was different from all the others.

He continued the kiss for five minutes, and finally, the light seemed to return to Leticia’s eyes.

「Nph…」

Even though she had been at his mercy she had seemed like she began to moan, so Taiyou finally…separated himself from her hot and soft lips.

As he did, she immediately raised her voice in protest.

「What are ya doin’ all the sudden?」

「All the sudden? It was five minutes long!」

「What does that mean?」

Leticia was surprised. She looked around, saw Juurokuya riding along, and asked.

「Is he bein’ honest?」

「Y, yeah! Y, y, you were kissing him for a while!」

「…that so?」

Leticia finally understood. She didn’t protest or even get angry, but just hung her head with a sigh.

Though the truth was she was kissed while she was unconscious, it seemed that she still understood what had occured.

「I hesitate to ask but…do you understand what happened?」

「I have some idea.」

「Some idea?」

「Cursed blood.」

She blurted out that strange magic-y phrase. In the real world, there would be a question whether words like that would ever be used.

Even though she used those words, she held her true feelings inside. She wasn’t putting on airs, but her tone showed that she knew what had happened.

「That reminds me, you said something like that before the first kiss as well.」

「Yeah, the blood flowin’ inside me makes that happen. My sis has the same thing happen to her. I hafta do that from time to time, it’s like it recharges my dead batteries or somethin’」

「Recharge with a kiss…is that what you mean?」

Leticia nodded slightly.

「Yeah, but I’m not really into it…it’s only…it’d suck to not be able to help that idiot.」

「Well, it makes me really happy though, I get to kiss you again.」

「Whaa?」

Leticia’s face turned bright red and her silent mouth fell agape. Even in the shadowy car one could tell her naturally milky-white skin had turned red.

「What? What are you sayin’?」

「Ah, you talk just like Juurokuya」

「Don’t compare me to her!」

「Wha?」

Juurokuya was shocked at Leticia’s strong refusal.

As Taiyou looked back and forth at the two, he noticed Leticia firmly shut her mouth.

He was surprised that Leticia’s kiss had captivated him completely.

Just a kiss, a meeting between two pairs of lips. A light kiss that a family overseas might give each other in greeting.

However, it was that kiss had shaken Taiyou’s heart completely.

The feeling was like getting a glimpse of the complexities of light and shadows…like after one falls madly in love.

Taiyou didn’t dare think of what that might mean to him.

「Again?! Are you gonna try to kiss me again?!」

「If you don’t, your batteries will go dead, right?」

「Well…I guess they will.」

「Listen, this isn’t fair so I’ll tell you honestly.」

「Wha?」

「I could care less about the recharge, I just want to kiss you more.」

「Whaaat the…」

Leticia was without words. She had already blushed red as she could from what he previously said, as Juurokuya became even more flustered and swooned.

It was just as he said.

Princess of Phili Kingdom, Leticia H Kellaz. The princess of a respected kingdom with history and traditions, a maiden that had come to this land as a guest of the state.

The most untouchable of all maidens, almost like a rose planted on top of Everest.

To this girl Taiyou had told her straight that he would kiss her and continue kissing her if he had the chance.

「Until this journey is over, if you end up like you just were, I intend on kissing you.」

「Even without my consent?」

「Yes.」

Taiyou said so clearly.

Even so, his heart was far from calm.

The kiss, and his statement that he’d continue doing it without stopping, had surprised him as well.

He understood that at once.

The kiss with Leticia was wonderful…telling her straight in away that blew away all embarrassment and rules…it was sure proof of how wonderful it was.

That’s why he told her, but he had not prepared for her rejecting him.

He noticed that she had no intention of fleeing from him.

(Well…at least until the end.)

After making that decision, he changed the conversation.

「So, changing the subject, what should we do from here?」

「I think I have an joker card.」

He said just what he needed to, as Leticia’s formerly beet-red face suddenly changed back as she answered him.

「And you’re plannin’ to use it well?」

「The joker…」
