I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

Chapter 1619 - A Reward for Lilia ⑫



Chapter 1619 - A Reward for Lilia ⑫

At any rate, after a few…… no, after quite a large amount of time, I somehow managed to calm down Lilia-san.

[Lilia-san, have you calmed down?]

[Y- Yes, I’m all better now.]

Her face was still as red as a boiled octopus, but if I point that out, she might end up getting even more embarrassed, so I’ll just keep quiet about it.

However, regarding that kiss just now…… should I touch upon that matter? It’s also difficult to completely avoid that topic, and the more time passes, the more likely Lilia-san will feel awkward about it…… Let’s just gather my courage and bring it up here.

[……Errr, Lilia-san. About what you did just now?]

[Ahh, no, that is…… Like I said before, I thought I should show a more adult-like attitude, like, showing my dignity as someone older…… s- so, sometimes, I wanted to be the one taking the initiative…… and so……]

As embarrassment makes Lilia-san’s face grow redder and redder, it seems like steam might start rising from her head any moment now.

[In other words, Lilia-san had…… so to speak, you wanted to do something lover-like on your own initiative, so you did something like that?]

[Y- Yes…… Y- You see. Even I, umm, wanted to do couple-like things with Kaito-san…… B- Being lovey-dovey is what you call it, yes? I want to do that too. However, I’d usually get embarrassed and hesitate, so I’ve just been secretly studying and doing image training in preparation for moments like this……]

[Studying?]

[I- I had studied popular romance novels and had done careful image training before going through the real deal but…… T- Things really just won’t go according to how you imagine it.]

While that was a bit surprising, it’s also quite heartwarming. Lilia-san certainly is quite the shy person; I remember she even fainted the first time we kissed.

However, even though she’s feeling embarrassed, it seems Lilia-san has the desire to do more lover-like things with me, and she’s actively making efforts within her capabilities to overcome it.

[……Ahh, ummm, in my image training, I did properly kiss you on the lips…… but when things are actually happening, I couldn’t summon the courage and resorted to that……

[I see……]

It seems that she herself was aware that her acting was a bit forced. Well, how should I say this…… I just couldn’t help thinking that Lilia-san is adorable.

Blushing with embarrassment, trying to escape the situation by pressing her index fingers together…… While she might not feel like someone older than me, her cuteness is absolutely overwhelming.

[In other words, Lilia-san was actually planning for a normal kiss?]

[Y- Yes. U- Ummm, t- that was a good mood we had earlier……]

[Well, would you mind if I’m the one initiating it?]

[Aeehh!?]

Upon hearing my words, Lilia-san’s face, which was already red enough, seemingly as if an explosion resounded, grew even redder.

Guess pursuing things any further here would be a bad idea. There’s a chance she might go overload, so I’ll just wait for Lilia-san’s reaction……

After waiting for Lilia-san’s statement without saying anything for a while…… Lilia-san’s eyes moved around restlessly several times, and slightly lowering her head, she quietly muttered her response.

[……I- I’m fine with it……]

[Then, if you’ll excuse me.]

[Ahh, y- yes.]

Having received Lilia-san’s approval, I gently reached out and, my hand tracing along her cheek, tilted her face upwards. With her face blushing red, looking up at me with teary eyes, Lilia-san’s gaze was so destructive that it made my heart skip a beat, but holding such emotions back, I slowly leaned in, ensuring not to make Lilia-san uneasy.

Lilia-san’s eyes moved here and there for a while, but when my face came closer to hers, seemingly having made up her mind, she closed her eyes and slightly pouted her lips.

As I felt my cheeks relax at her cute gesture, I moved my face even closer and our lips completely overlapped.

The softness of her lips, the warmth of her cheek transmitted to my hand…… I could strongly feel that I’m kissing Lilia-san, and how should I say this…… It was a moment filled with happiness.

It would have been alright to end it there, but the feeling was so pleasant that a desire to deepen the kiss further welled up within me.

Though I say that, I couldn’t just ignore Lilia-san’s intentions, so even though I didn’t know if it would work or not, while in the midst of our kiss, I lightly brushed her lips with my tongue to convey my intention.

Thereupon, after Lilia-san’s shoulders flinched…… It was only a little bit, but she definitely opened her lips slightly and positioned herself to accept me.

In that case, I couldn’t hold back anymore, and driven by desire, I kissed Lilia-san even deeper for a long time…… but after that, Lilia-san fainted, so it seems that she hadn’t done any image training as to what happens up to that point.
