Chapter 371: Deeply Communicate!
Chapter 371: Koyomi Chooses to Follow Her Heart and Deeply Communicate!
Koyomi’s mind didn’t register it at first. After a long time, when she finally reacted, an incredibly long sound came from her mouth. "Ah?"
"Ren-kun, are you sure you’re not joking with me? She’s..."
Ren interrupted her. "It’s not a joke. Miyuki likes me, and I like her, so we got together. Everyone else knows this too."
Everyone else? In other words, this was not some hidden relationship; it was recognized. But... it was still a bit unbelievable.
"Koyomi, let’s talk about business." To keep the conversation going, Ren asked again, "What is your ability?"
Her mind was in a mess, but she still answered. "It’s an ability called Holy Power, which can heal, restore, and purify."
"An auxiliary ability?" Ren was slightly surprised and decided to test it. He cut a gash on his arm with his finger, deliberately suppressing his own recovery. "Try to restore it."
Startled by his actions, she relaxed when she saw he was fine. "Mmm." She stretched out her hand and placed it above the wound. A white radiance shone, and he felt it carefully. The recovery power was not bad; the wound fully recovered in just a few seconds, without a scar.
"A pretty good ability." He intended to withdraw his hand, but as they brushed past each other, Koyomi’s finger intentionally grazed his palm.
"!!!" She seemed to realize the impropriety of her subconscious action. Koyomi quickly got up, fanning her collar. "Um, I’m done eating. You continue, Ren-kun."
But Ren also stood up. "I’m almost done too. I’ll help you wash the dishes."
"Oh, how can I trouble you?"
"Let’s do it together." Ren was determined.
So, the two stood side by side at the sink. Because it wasn’t very large, their movements would occasionally cause them to bump into each other. At first, it was nothing. But gradually, Koyomi found that he was getting closer and closer.
Even though she noticed, she didn’t move, just lowered her head, quietly washing the plates.
Until Ren’s dry hand wrapped around her ample waist. In an instant, Koyomi’s body stiffened.
His mouth pressed close to her ear as he whispered, "Koyomi, I feel like you haven’t rejected my closeness."
"W-woo... I..." Koyomi trembled, wanting to explain, but Ren sealed her lips with his mouth.
"W-woo!" While she was shocked, an unspeakable sweetness surged in her heart, and she even actively responded. Until her perky chest was assaulted by his other hand, and she gently pushed against him. This was her weak, rational resistance.
He, however, kissed her earlobe again and whispered, "Koyomi, instead of being conflicted in your heart, how about letting your body provide the answer?"
This sentence shattered the chains sealing her heart. Her gently pushing hands slowly lowered. The door to a new world was opening for her.
Even during winter vacation, Ren was never idle. After returning from Yui’s house, he notified everyone that he would be leaving for a while. The main reason was to fulfill his agreement with Ch’en. However, this time, besides Talulah and Alina, he also brought Yukino, Eriri, and Nezuko. It was like a multi-person date to another world.
After transferring them all to the Chaos Realm, he sent a private message.
[Ren: Are you ready?]
[Ch’en: Mm!]
[Ding! Group member Ren has applied for world-traveling permission. Do you approve?]
"Yes." Ch’en, who had just returned to her apartment, decisively made her choice.
[Ding! World-traveling permission approved!]
[Ding! World-traveling portal opened!]
Ch’en clenched her fists. It had been nearly ten years. Thinking of Talulah, she felt exceptionally nervous.
Whoosh! A black vortex appeared. Ren, dressed only in a black overcoat, emerged. Seeing his form once more, Ch’en couldn’t help but think he possessed a face highly attractive to young maidens.
However, her attention was more focused on those beside and behind him. Until the black hole disappeared, she did not see Talulah. "Talulah-chan, she..." Ch’en was a little anxious.
"Don’t worry. Look, isn’t she here?" Ren transferred Talulah and the others out.
"Talulah... Talulah-chan..." Ch’en’s gaze immediately locked onto Talulah, who had changed back into her black Lolita dress.
"Ch’en..." Although they had changed a lot, they recognized each other instantly. Yet, there was an indescribable sense of estrangement between them.
The perceptive Yukino and the others remained silent, curiously observing the room, which was decorated much like a modern apartment. So this is the Otherworld? It was slightly different from what they had imagined.
Ren glanced out the window. It was already nighttime. Ch’en and Talulah were still silently looking at each other. He couldn’t stand it. "Hey, Ch’en, do you think it’s appropriate to leave us hanging like this?"
"Ah?!" Only then did Ch’en realize Ren and the others were present. Wait, why are there several people? She took a quick look. There was an unfamiliar Elafiya (deer) and four young women whose races she couldn’t discern. "They are..."
Ren spread his hands, putting his arms around Yukino and the little deer. "They are my girlfriends and future wives. I brought them here for a trip." Then he kissed each of them on the cheek.
Yukino and Alina were both embarrassed by his bold action. Alina shyly lowered her head, while Yukino stared at him with both shame and indignation.
Eriri pouted, pulled Nezuko, and ran in front of him. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his left cheek. Nezuko, her face flushed, followed suit and kissed his right.
