Chapter 114: CH 113

“Don’t be absentminded and give me your proper impression! It’s my home cooking!?”

When I came to my senses, I was suddenly in a situation I didn’t understand well.

A girl with blonde winding curls was staring over here with irritated eyes.

Okay, calm down me.

There’s no reason to panic.

Let’s ascertain the situation calmly.

Looking around, what came into my view was a not-so-spacious inside of a house.

Still, compared to the house where I was born and raised, it feels quite spacious.

Around the table with the girl with winding curls and me, there were two adorable little girls.

The problem is, everyone who comes into my sight, including the girl, is without a doubt not Japanese.

Let’s leave the girl in front of me alone for now and trace my memory until the current moment.

I remember, I’ve certainly transmigrated to another world.

I’ve transmigrated to a confusing world that resembles medieval Europe yet has strange Japanese aspects and met somebody there.

“Ah. Claire-sama.”

“My! You’ve returned to attaching sama! I told you to address me without an honorific, didn’t I?”

There’s no doubt about this yapping voice.

She is Claire François.

A character from my beloved love simulation game Revolution and my dearest wife.

So that means, this is perhaps, possibly?

Is this, the retrospection flag?

“Claire-sama.”

I see, I understand.

On the table is a plate with a mysterious substance that can only be called dish (provisional).

It appears that I had a bad trip from Claire-sama’s home cooking.

My real name is Oohashi Rei.

Rei Taylor is my name in this world.

That means, this is the home where I live happily with Claire-sama and our beloved Mei and Alea.

“Hooray!”

“Are you truly alright? Besides, don’t use such a vulgar expression. It’s detrimental to Mei and Alea’s upbringing.”

Claire-sama is grumbling something, but let’s ignore her for now.

I felt uneasy thinking that perhaps this turbulent year was a dream.

I met Claire-sama, bonded with her little by little, supported by dear friends overcome hardships of the revolution, and finally put an end to the turbulent days.

I’m really glad that it wasn’t a dream.

“Claire-sama.”

“What is it? Or rather, I wish you would fix your honorifics habit already.”

“I like you.”

“… Ha?”

Claire-sama made a blank face.

It seems she couldn’t understand.

It can’t be helped.

“Claire-sama, I like Claire-sama very much.”

As the words I said permeated into her brain, Claire-sama lost her cool.

Yup, cute.

My most favored character in this world is none other than this sparkling young lady, Claire-sama.

She – Claire François is the villainess of Revolution.

The villainess is someone who bullies a heroine, only to at the end turn around and become a stalking horse character.

The child of a good family with bad personality, accompanied by her followers she harasses the protagonist over and over again… Well, that’s in the past.

I’m completely charmed by that villainess Claire-sama.

Her pride is as high as it gets, her voice is as beautiful as the sound of a bell, her evil disposition… hasn’t appeared recently.

Even though the person herself was in front of me, just recalling the memories of what we’d gone through made me break into a smile.

Claire-sama may have been the target of antipathy by the game players, but I love Claire-sama so I have a slight issue with that.

Everything she’s made of tickles my heart.

If anything, Claire-sama is like a saint, so I wonder if they were hallucinating.

Even if I say so myself, my love for Claire-sama is a serious illness.

“What are you saying, Rei!? It’s still evening, and Mei and Alea are here too!?”

“What’s wrong with Mei being here?”

“Can’t we?”

“Ah, no, could you please forget about it? You will understand when you grow up. Jeez, it’s your fault, Rei…”

“What…? I simply like Claire-sama very much.”

“Hm… Hmph, another confession of love? It’s futile. Dear, I like you so much more!”

Claire-sama turned her face away in a huff.

“… How cute.”

“Wha… wha wha wha…!”

Oops, unconsciously my worldly desires rushed out of my mouth.

Claire-sama was extremely shaken.

“You… Are you perhaps, um… turned on?”

“No, such a conclusion… There’s no such thing, anyway, Claire-sama is cute.”

“…”

Ah, she fell silent.

Her cheeks are red.

Nice… Such a pure reaction.

“Claire-sama, you like me, right?”

“T, that is a matter of course!”

“That’s good. Please continue loving me. Bring it on.”

“Wha… What is with Rei today…?”

As expected, Claire-sama started getting suspicious.

“Now, it’s the beginning of a fun, fun dinner, Claire-sama! Let’s enjoy ourselves together to the full!”

“I have a feeling like I saw this development somewhere.”

Having overcome the hardships of the revolution, I spend every day with my beloved Claire-sama.

It’s a precious ever after.

I’ll cherish Claire-sama to my heart’s content.

“And? It seems you lost consciousness for some reason?”

“I was so happy about Claire-sama’s homemade food that it seems I fainted.”

“You’re exaggerating.”

“No, I could somehow see a one million dollar night view from the top of a high rise.”

No good.

I explained the sight I’d seen when I’d fainted before, but it seems to have only made Claire-sama more confused.

What in the world should I do?

There’s no way she’d have seen a scene from my previous life.

“No, it’s nothing. I’m fine already.”

“Is that so? Then it’s all right…”

Yeah, indeed.

I’m happy she worries about me like this, I reflected upon my present life.

My beloved Claire-sama.

Now, please discipline me some more with those cherry-colored lips.

“Rei.”

“What is it, what is it?”

If I had a tail, I’m sure it would be waggling.

However――.

“Are you really… really alright? About this time tomorrow you will be in the carriage on the way to the empire?”

…

… That’s right.

My prospects for the second act of another world transmigration are bright… Is what I thought.

But, we’ll soon have to bid farewell to these months of repose.

The story goes back one month.
