Chapter 368: I'll Continue Writing After I Get Home

After I finished explaining the situation to Lilia-san and Dr. Vier about Eden-san to some extent, there was a considerably heavy silence.

A little while later, Lilia-san spoke in a grave tone.

[…..In short... This Eden-sama is the God of Kaito-san's world that you had told me about before... and that God likes Kaito-san... That's why she helped you for this matter...]

[Y- Yes, well, something like that.]

I don't think Eden-san's affection is on the level of liking me... Well, let's just let this matter remain unclear.

Well, you know... As expected, I couldn't just say "The God of my world is a Yandere" or anything like that, right... Right?

[...I thought that since I had met most of the powerful beings in this world... that would be the end of it... And now, you even went and asked the assistance of a God from another world... No more... You aren't even trying to restrain yourself at all.]

Lillia exhaustedly muttered.

[...My apologies.]

I deeply bowed to Lilia once again. Thereupon, Dr. Vier, who had been silently listening to me up to that point, spoke to me, looking somewhat convinced.

[Miyama-kun, in other words, is it correct to say that... she is someone like the God of Creation-sama of our world?]

[Y- Yes, probably.]

[I see... No wonder I was feeling so helpless before her. I thought that I was a pretty strong person but... the tops of worlds really are different.]

Dr. Vier was surprised by Eden-san's identity, but she nodded her head, looking like she understood why she had been overpowered.

[...Dr. Vier.]

[Unnn?]

[....Do you have any... good stomach medicine?]

[Unnn. I think we should get you to try to stop relying on medication first. What you're feeling is something psychological, so a change in pace would probably be good. I think it would be good for you to take a walk under the morning sun.]

[...What am I supposed to do?]

[Hmmm. Lilia-chan is a very serious person, so you probably already have a lot on your plate. I can't say much because I'm the one who caused the problem this time but... I think it's best if you don't stress out about things too much.]

Somehow, doesn't it seem like they've started some sort of counseling!? No, I'm really sorry, Lilia-san...

[It'll be easier if you voice your complaints and worries to others. How about you talk about it to someone like Lu-chan?]

Unnn. Dr. Vier certainly made a sound argument but... I think that her choice of person is a complete mistake.

However, I can't really say "I'm here to listen to all of your complaints." to her. After all, I'm the cause of her worries...

[Ahh, that's right! Why don't you go on a "date with Miyama-kun" for a change of pace?]

[Ehh!? A d- d- d- date...?]

[Unnn. You two are lovers, right?]

[T- That certainly is t- t- t- true but...]

Hearing Dr. Vier's unexpected suggestion, Lilia-san's earlier depression disappeared and with her face turned bright red, her gaze swam about as she spoke.

[H- However... a date... a date is... If I were to regard Kaito-san's circumstances... and go on a date with him... the date would turn into a date... and if we were to go on a date... W- Wouldn't it be difficult?]

[I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about! Could you calm down for a bit...]

[Y- Yes...]

[Do you not want to go on a date with Miyama-kun, Lilia-chan?]

[T- That's not it! That isn't the case! Rather, I've been wan... I- It's nothing!]

I felt like the conversation was going in a weird direction, but a date with Lilia-san would always be welcome.

We hadn't had a chance to go out alone together since that trip we had before, so I think it would be nice to wander around the city.

[...If it's okay with Lilia-san, why don't we go shopping together tomorrow?]

[K- K- K- Kaito-san!? I- I- I- Is that a d- date?]

[Yes. The Six Kings Festival is near too, so I think it would be a good idea to get some new clothes.]

[Auu... auuu...]

[Lilia-san? If it's not convenient for you, we can always do it another day, you know?]

[N- No! I- It's awright!]

...She bit her tongue. She just strongly bit down on her tongue. Each of her reactions were just too cute.

As I happily looked at Lilia-san, who accepted my date invitation with a bright red face, Dr. Vier clapped her hands.

[Ahh, that's right! I've got something good for you.]

[Something good?]

[Unnn. This was something given to me too... It's a ticket for a play. Errr, it should be here somewhere... Found it! Here you go.]

[Eh? Errr, can I really have it?]

[Of course. I'm really glad for the thought they had when they gave it to me, but it isn't really convenient for me to go there myself... I think it's going to expire in about 10 days, so you should go check it out soon.]

[...Thank you.]

[You're welcome... Well, I only have one ticket, so you'll have to buy another for the other person... I heard they're playing something pretty popular.]

A play huh... I knew that there were things in this world, but I have never been to one, even in my world.

Gratefully accepting Dr. Vier's kindness, I confirmed if Lilia-san would like to go there, to which she nodded her head several times with a cute blush.

Thereupon, Dr. Vier announced that she was going back to her clinic. After thanking and apologizing to us once again, she left.

I also left the office after having a short discussion with Lilia-san about our plans for tomorrow's date.

After dinner and a bath, I went back to my room and was writing in my diary, thinking about the day. This was when Kuro appeared, just as usual.

[Kaito-kun! I'm here~~]

[Welcome.]

[Hey, Kaito-kun. This might be sudden... but how about we go on a "date"?]

[Ehh? Date? Right now?]

Kuro appeared in my room, and with her usual bright smile, she requested something out of the ordinary.

It was currently 9:00 pm... Early enough to go to bed, but it's late enough to wander around outside.

[Unnn... I'd like to go to a place with Kaito-kun. Is it no good?]

[Not really, it's alright with me... Hold on, I'll get my jacket.]

[Unnn!]

When I agreed to her date invitation, Kuro nodded with a sincerely happy smile on her face.

Dear Mom, Dad———– It had only been a few hours ago that I promised to go on a date with Lilia-san, and Kuro has now asked me on a date. I've been trying to write all the things that happened today in my diary but... It looks like I'll have more things to write———– I'll continue writing after I get home.
