Episode 25- A Date in the Fairy Village (Second Part)

So, holding hands with Tenka who was standing on his right side, Shito began to walk at a pace that was similar to hers and began to walk down the street to the food stand that was on their left. The food stand that they were walking to only sold crepes, so they weren't going to get any other foods at the moment.

Handling hands in public garnered the attention of the other fairies that were walking through the city. Although by the looks of their faces, they liked that a young couple that was enjoying their time in the city. Nonetheless, they walked down the street ignoring all the stares and whispers from all the fairies in the area.

It had been a few months since they went out and had crepes. Not only that but it had been two months since the two of them had been alone together—although the two didn't mind going out with their kids since they liked spending time with each other, but they knew that their daughters wanted to go with Alice so they could give them some alone time. However, they also felt that they actually wanted to spend time with their cousin.

"What flavors would you two want to have."

Those words came from a young woman. A woman—that looked like she was in his early twenties, with beautiful, glossy, curly pink hair with eyes that matched her hair color. Her hair was free and flowed down her back. The woman was wearing beautiful light purple color robes that were unable to conceal her buxom, so large to the point that it made her and her beauty stand out.

This woman seems to be trained in fighting… not only that, but the aura around her body is also higher than most of the fairies in this village. By looking at her aura, she is the second strongest in this village. Second to the Fairy Queen.

His senses never failed him, even if he was to spread his senses across several lower dimensions or even higher dimensions. His sense would be accurate. So, with her standing directly before him, Shito could pinpoint anyone or anything, no matter the distance, and even if something were to stand in his way, he would destroy it because no matter how many higher dimensions or lower dimensions you stack in front of him. He would be able to absolutely obliterate it.

Furthermore, the woman was overflowing with mana, so one could tell she was about to evolve into a spirit. It was like the Fairy Queen they met the other day–she was on the verge of breaking through to the spirit stage. However, even if she were to evolve her will to rule the forest would conquer anything else, after all, no one wants their people to be killed in her absence since if she leaves the beautiful woman before them would have to leave too because all spirits are required to go to the Spirit World. Unless they are summoned by the humans and make a pact with them.

"I would like to order banana and chocolate," Tenka said, turning her head towards the beautiful boy standing beside him. "What would you like to order?"

In response to her question, his gaze shifted towards the menu, placing his hand on his face, and tilting his head. "...Hmm. I'll have strawberries and cream."

"Ok, your orders will be here soon can you wait here for me… I'll be finished soon—so wait for me here." said the woman, Marina, who started walking towards the back of the stand. Her stand was large almost like a mini store.

Tenka's gaze shifted towards the boy beside her, and she grabbed his face. "You know—you are adorable."

Shito tilted his head slightly confused by her words—although he understood the meaning of the word 'adorable', but he didn't know why she was calling him that. In all his life, he had never heard an adult boy getting called adorable, that was something that people said to little kids and children.

Once he was able to process what the woman was saying to him, he turned his head, keeping his rarely changing expressionless face. "Hmm. Thank you, I guess."

"...!" After hearing the words that came out of his mouth, Tenka leaned closer to his face and gave him a soft smooch on the face. "Let's have fun on this date. And since the woman is away at the moment. So, I decided to give you a gift." she said, placing her index finger on her lip while slightly smiling.

"..." he said nothing in response, his face was expressionless… but for some reason, his heart was fluttering.

"I have finished fixing your orders," Marina said. "You don't have to pay for anything today since the Fairy Queen covered all your payments for your time here."

After hearing the words that came out of the beautiful woman's mouth, Tenka gently smiled taking the crepes from the woman's hands. Then, they walked away from the stand and sat on a bench that was nearby. Shito was on the right and Tenka was directly beside him on the left, sitting arm and arm beside each other.

"Well, Let's start eating then."

Saying that, he took a bite of his crepe, the spongy wrap that was filled with strawberries and whipped cream. The flavors were good and mixed together in perfect harmony in his mouth.

"These taste better than the last time we went out to get some… I wonder why that is…" he said.

"Yeah." Tenka nodded in agreement. "The flavors of these crepes taste better than they did two months ago. And it's even better that I get to eat it here with someone I love."

"What did you just say?"

"I said the crepes taste even better because I am sitting here eating with a person that I love. You heard me the first time, but you wanted me to say it again. However, I'm not embarrassed to say it to you how many times you want me to. After all, you are the person I want to be with for the rest of my life…"

Shito listened to every word that came out of her mouth, and he turned his head towards her—although his face was expressionless, his heart was moved by her words, and he simply shook his head and responded. "I would like for that to happen. Getting married to you would be my goal. However, I am going to have to meet your parents first."

"Ahh, I see. We can go see them soon but that can happen when you are comfortable with it. There is no need for me to force you to do anything so the best I can do is wait for you."

I really don't mind going there after this mission, but we should be taking a break for a little bit., Shito thought. There is no need for us to be in a rush to see them.

"..." Before he could say anything he was met with a crepe shoved in front of his face, a crepe that wasn't his and he looked up at the person. Once he looked up, he was met with a bright smile, by the beautiful girl beside him.

"Um… I want you to taste my crepe. It's good." she held her crepe in front of his face, giving him a bright smile—a smile that made it hard for him to deny the offer.

Although he wasn't the type to deny the offer of a loved one.

With the crepe hanging in front of his face, he instantly took a bit of the crepe as his gaze shifted back to the girl that was sitting before him.

Slightly smiling—Shito's eyes lit up for a single second before turning back to normal. "You're right. The crepe that you bought is really delicious."

After saying that, his face shifted back to his normal expressionless face. It was clear that he could show emotions, but it was something that was rare. Although if he wasn't directly showing them, he always felt the emotions shooting through his body. He was like a normal human cause he could feel love, hate, rage, and other things, but his face never showed them. But most times he feels nothing because he closes off his emotions since they are useless. And he only shows them to his friends or family.

Shito glanced over at Tenka who was sitting beside him glancing at his crepe and then back at hers—to him it was clear what she wanted so he opened his mouth. "Do you want to taste mine...?" He held out his crepe, letting her take a bite.

Then, after taking a bite of his crepe, she turned her head blushing deeply as she offered her another bite of hers. And as such, he took another bite of her crepe.

"This is good…" he trailed off as glanced at the face of the girl sitting before him, noticing that she had something on her face, and he wiped the cream on her face and—

"What are you doing?" Tenka asked. "Wa-wait ho-hold up…."

—he licked the cream off his finger without a single hesitation. The words that came out of her mouth were heard by him, but he simply ignored it.

Seeing the sight in front of her unfold, Tenka's whole body went red as if she was about to burst into flames, and she quickly turned her head away. Even though she wasn't embarrassed to confess her true feelings to him, having intimate contact made her feel all fuzzy and it caused her to blush deeply.

"Let's hurry up and finish eating so we can start the next part of this date."

"..." Tenka said nothing in response, her face was still flushed… but for some reason, she looked slightly embarrassed.

Shito did not worry about anything that was going on around him—and the two of them got up off the bench, grabbing each other's hand, walking with the crepes they had in their hand… but the expressions of Tenka flashed brought him some memories that he could cherish in the future.
