Chapter 1489 Holiday 4
It was at night, Haru didn't go back to his room after he had eaten dinner with everyone, but rather, he walked around the inn.
After his talk with Semiramis, she agreed and would teach Shinobu about poison later after they had returned from their holiday.
In truth, Haru was still wary of Semiramis, after all, her poison was very strong and even if he was able to make her poison useless, it didn't mean that the rest of the people that he cared about could handle her poison.
It was also the reason why Haru put Semiramis to the "Ocean" again since it seemed that she was thinking about what kind of country that she should build inside.
The "Ocean" was part of Haru's ability, even so, it was also a separate space, and he could manipulate everything as long as it was within that space.
Haru was thinking about how he was going to make Semiramis become docile, but he knew that he needed time.
"What are you thinking?"
Haru turned his head and saw Shinobu, who was walking toward him.
Shinobu was wearing a kimono that was provided by the hotel, well, not only her, who was the kimono, but all the people that came to the holiday also wore a kimono too.
"I am thinking about you," Haru said with a smile.
Hearing Haru's words, Shinobu snorted and clearly didn't believe his words.
"Hmph! You're thinking about me, but you should come to me after you are done with your matter!"
"......"
Haru wanted to say something, but he closed his mouth since he knew that he was wrong.
Shinobu had been waiting for Haru after he had completed his matter with the Jack the Ripper and her master, thinking that both of them would finally become one, however, she was dejected when she knew that he came to Fiore's room and both of them did that kind of thing together.
Shinobu stared at Haru and asked, "Isn't there something that you want to say to me?"
"I am sorry," Haru said with a guilty expression. If someone saw his expression at this moment, they would feel that they were looking at a cute sad puppy that would melt anyone's heart with just a gaze.
Shinobu's gaze became slightly soft, but she knew most of Haru's trick and she wouldn't forgive him easily!
"Is that all?"
Haru moved forward and hugged Shinobu's petite body.
"I love you, Shinobu. I am sorry for what I have done and stay with me. Let's have a talk together."
Shinobu's tense body slowly became soft and leaned directly on the body of this man.
"Hmm..."
"......."
Semiramis, who saw everything which happened in front of her, was speechless.
Haru then brought Shinobu to the gazebo on this inn and sat next to each other.
"Is there something that you want to talk about?" Shinobu asked while leaning her body toward him.
"Well, I am wondering who are we going to invite to the group chat?" Haru said.
Their quest hadn't been completed yet since they hadn't invited one member to the group chat.
Shinobu also knew about this matter and asked, "So who should we invite?"
"How about you? Who do you think we should invite to the Group Chat?"
Even though Haru had made up his decision, he wanted to know Shinobu's opinion about the new member of the group chat.
"I feel that Jeanne should be suitable," Shinobu said.
Hearing her answer, Haru didn't feel surprised since he also felt the same.
Looking at Haru's expression, Shinobu smiled and asked, "You also think the same?"
"Yes."
In Haru's mind, there were three candidates for the new members of Group Chat and those candidates were Raikou, Fiore, and Jeanne.
However, he felt that Raikou and Fiore weren't that suitable to become a member of Group Chat.
Raikou might be powerful, but her mind wasn't right and he was afraid that she might have a fight with Esdeath the moment, they knew each other.
Fiore was a good choice, but her little brother was a Magus.
Haru was sure that Fiore would tell Caules about the Group Chat and by that time, Caules might use everything he did to exploit the Group Chat. He didn't think that it was wrong since he also did the same, and Caules was also his family, but he wasn't sure whether Caules's greed could be kept at bay since he would be lying if he didn't think that Caules might try to own the Group Chat on his own.
After all, a Magus was a creature that needed to be watched for, they were like a businessman, and what was on their heads was only an interest.
On the other hand, Jeanne was very charming, kind, strong, and a bit stupid. She was very suitable to become a member of the Group Chat without hesitation.
"Then let's invite Jeanne to be a member of the Group Chat."
Shinobu didn't hesitate any more and wanted to invite Jeanne, however, her wrist was being grabbed.
"Wait!"
"What's wrong?"
"Do you want to go back right away?" Haru asked with a helpless expression.
Shinobu blushed and asked, "Do you want to stay in this world with me?"
"Yes."
Haru nodded and said, "We have only been in this world for a week, so why not enjoy some holiday?"
Shinobu thought for a while and nodded.
"That's true."
There wasn't any time limit to end their quest and the only quest that they hadn't been completed yet was to invite a new member.
Shinobu also wanted to stay with her man in this world too. She sat down beside him and said, "Haru."
"Hmm?"
"Can you sing me a song?"
"Again?"
"Yes."
Shinobu knew that the mood wasn't right for them to go to bed, however, if there was a song that could become a catalyst for them to enter the bed together then....
Haru thought for a while and took out his guitar.
"I have a good song here."
"What is the title?"
"It's "gyutto" (hugging)."
(BGM: Gyutto - Mosawo)
Haru then started to sing without hesitation since he could see that she was waiting for him. Playing his guitar gently, he started his song.
"If you connect your hands, your body temperature will rise
Inspired by an innocent smile
Try to imitate strange habits
When I was gazing at my sleeping face
Before I knew it
Special occasional
Casual life is important to me."
The song was very gentle and it was very enjoyable to hear anytime.
Shinobu smiled and stared at the eyes of the man that she loved at this moment. She knew that this guy was a bastard, scum, greedy, and the worst kind of man that she had ever met, however, he entered her heart and she wanted to be with him forever.
"Hold me close
With a soft and gentle voice
Call my name
That's why I'm happy
If one wish comes true
I will always be with you
May I be next to you forever."
Semiramis, who heard Haru's song, had to admit that this song was very good and at the same time, she had to admit that this boy had the talent to hook up with any girls since she was sure that if this boy sang this song for her then she might fall for him.
However...
Semiramis quickly shook her head since she wouldn't feel for a playboy!
'But...'
Semiramis closed her eyes and sat on her throne, listening to the pleasing song.
"If you quarrel in the future
Even if the values pass each other
Let's get over with two people
Everything, everything."
In truth, it wasn't only Semiramis and Shinobu that heard Haru's song since Fiore, Raikou, Jeanne, and Atalanta also hid and listened to his song. At first, they were worried that Haru and Shinobu might fight each other, however, it seemed that his skill at coaxing girls was better than they had thought and if Jeanne used her ability as a Ruler, she might have seen that Haru's "Coaxing Skill" had reached EX-Rank.
However...
They had to admit that they were jealous at that moment.
Haru then stopped, playing his guitar, then held Shinobu's small and soft hands.
"With warm and gentle eyes
Just staring at me
That alone makes me happy
I'm tight today. Let me
There is one thing I want to convey
I will love you forever."
Haru sang without any instrument, and kept staring at Shinobu's eyes, and sang the last line of the song.
Shinobu smiled brightly at this moment and said, "I love you forever too, Haru."
Haru didn't wait any longer and kissed Shinobu's lips since this girl was too cute, right?
Both of them hugged each other then walked back together toward the room since there was only one thing that they needed to do after this, right?
