From that day onwards, I stopped counting [the number of days spent after being transported to another world].
By ‘that day’, I was referring to the day Leon-sama and I were in that kind of relationship for the first time. This might only be a matter of feeling, but I was enlightened on how meaningless it was to count the days that had passed ever since I was transported to this world.
I’m going to live here. I’m going to grow old here. I didn’t know until when Leon-sama’s hospitality would last, but judging from his character, there should be a good consideration if he were to let go of someone he had in his bosom once, and there was no way he’d let that person be abandoned into ruins. I want to believe that.
–Speaking of that Leon-sama…
I couldn’t tell if something was broken inside him or if he was temporarily deluded in worldly pleasures after he embraced me, but his doting and sweetness were increased in one go. It felt as if he switched from low gear to top gear.
Although he usually returned late, he would always have dinner with me every day. After that, we had some tea together, but starting from that, I was sitting on his knee. During the dinner, I was about to have that kind of arrangement too, but I insisted that the initial impression was crucial, so we had dinner in a normal style, in other words, we were facing each other. When I was having the tea while sitting on Leon-sama’s lap, he caressed me mostly at my buttocks and waist, sniffed the scent of my breasts or nape of the neck—and the preliminary acts before the actual deed began. So early. If we were doing it on the sofa, in the end, we’d go to the bathroom and do it there. Naturally, it was almost every day that we did it on the bed and it was a non-stop action to the extent I fainted. He was a duke whose passion towards his smell fetish was peerless… Inside my heart, any decorative words I might have had before when it was related to Leon-sama rapidly turned more disappointing. –He was still my beloved person, though.
“…Leon-sama.”
That night, at the end of our deed, I somehow didn’t faint. While hugging Leon-sama, I leaned towards his slightly sweaty hard chest and talked.
“Why?” He urged me to continue as he licked my ear.
“You know that recently I have been doing swordsmanship and horse-riding, don’t you?”
That is right.
It was a bit earlier than how it should be arranged in my education schedule, but after studying in the afternoon, I received training on martial arts little by little.
I was a bit worried that my study time decreased, but as expected, I was happier because I could move my body even if it was only for a while. I felt refreshed. According to Orgueil, if my study time could go back to be scheduled in the morning, the training time could increase even more, to be throughout the afternoon if I wished for it. I wonder if my schedule was ahead of the plan because my studying progress was good? That thought put me in a good mood.
“…Of course, I know. I’m receiving report about it, after all.”
There was a moment of silent before Leon-sama answered, though it was only for a short brief.
Then, I was suddenly pulled up until our faces lined up.
Inside this dark room where only a little light was present, Leon-sama’s golden hair and golden-to-amber eyes were so beautiful and dreamy.
I was entranced by them—each and every time—and as I reached out my hand, I gently held his hair.
I told him about the fun that I had at the martial arts training and the dreadful swordsmanship training led by Orgueil (in the end, I began exchanging blows with Orgueil little by little one month after that)—I think that I was not so bad that I got praised by Orgueil—and et cetera, but Leon-sama’s reaction was questionable.
“Leon-sama?”
Suddenly, I became worried if such things bored him.
“…Anyway, since you’ve received reports on them, you must have already known everything. I might have repeated the same thing…”
“Sorry for that,” I continued, but Leon-sama shook his head leisurely.
Leon-sama’s hair that was on my grasp softly slipped away, coming near my mouth.
“I have heard everything. Your swordsmanship is marvelous. And powerful. I’ve also heard about how excellent you were in horse-riding. It can be said that you’ve mastered the unity of a rider and the horse.”
Leon-sama said as he lightly pecked my hand and kissed my fingertip.
Noo, don’t do that so suddenly!
I was so embarrassed that I didn’t have the mood to laugh it off.
I think that having my hand licked is acceptable, but under this kind of situation, it seemed weird.
“Leon-sama, is something the matter?”
As I ignored what he was doing with my hand, Leon-sama’s eyes peered into me.
“Is there something you’re concerned of? Or have I done something wrong?”
Right… I can’t be full of myself just because I was praised. My social position is still insecure. I have to behave well so that my action won’t rub someone the wrong way.
“Leon-sama?”
“—Riviere.”
After a moment of silent, Leon-sama called my name earnestly.
