Chapter 208 - I Think She\'s Cute
[Speaking of which, what kind of person is Luna-san’s mother? I guess she would also have blue hair like Luna-san?]
[Yes, Luna’s mother is a petite woman with hair as blue as the sky. Her name is…… Oya? It seems like she has arrived.]
When Aoi-chan asked Lilia-san about Lunamaria-san’s mother, Lilia-san told her that Lunamaria-san’s mother is a petite woman with hair that had the color of sky blue…… Arehh? I feel like I’ve seen someone who looks like that a while ago……
Just as Lilia-san was about to speak her name, she saw a figure around the gate and moved her gaze towards it.
A petite woman walks over to us, clothed in a light blue dress that isn’t as pompous as a noble’s clothing, but somehow looks elegant, holding a pretty parasol in one hand and a basket in the other.
How should I say this, her face looks very familiar…… or rather…… arehh…… Isn’t that Noir-san? Eh? Wait a moment, so, does that mean!? Noir-san is Lunamaria-san’s mother!?
I didn’t expect someone familiar to come, so I was stunned and speechless at seeing Noir-san.
Noir-san began approaching us, and then, deeply bowed her head to the homeowner, Lilia-san.
[……Lilia-san, hello. I apologized for my sudden visit.]
[It’s been a while, Noir-san. It’s good to see you looking well.]
After exchanging greetings with Lilia-san with a calm smile, Noir-san turns to Lunamaria-san and gives her a gentle smile.
Although her height is shorter than Lunamaria-san, her expression that is filled with affection is unmistakably that of a mother.
[Lu-chan also, I’m sorry to bother when you’re working.]
[T- That’s alright but…… Mom, why did you suddenly decide to visit……]
I just suddenly noticed it, but Noir-san and Lunamaria-san, even though they were mother and daughter, they were talking to each other with honorifics, does that mean they were originally using honorifics when they’re talking with each other?
Anyway, when Lunamaria-san looked flustered while talking to her, for some reason, Noir-san glanced at me with a slight blush on her cheek.
[I just came because there was someone I wanted to meet…… Miyama-san, hello.]
[……Eh?]
[Ah, yes. Hello.]
[…………Eh?]
As Noir-san turned to me and elegantly greeted me, it’s as if the expression on Lunamaria-san’s face disappeared, and dumbfounded, she muttered.
I feel apologetic after seeing her reaction, but I didn’t think Noir-san was Lunamaria-san’s either, so please forgive me.
Nevertheless, Lunamaria-san quickly recovered from her confusion, and looking far more flustered than before, she went closer to Noir-san.
[……Wait, w- what does this mean, Mom!? A- Are you acquainted with Miyama-sama?]
[Yes, I got sick on the way to the hospital the other day, and that’s when Miyama-san helped me out.]
[……I- Is that…… so……]
[Yes. And so, I heard from Lu-chan that Miyama-san lives at Lilia-san’s mansion, so I thought I’d come over today to thank him again.]
[……You…… have…… already…… met?]
[Luna!? Pull yourself together!]
When she finished listening to Noir-san’s explanation, Lunamari-san fell down on her knees, looking crestfallen, and Lilia-san flusteredly ran over to her.
Lunamaria-san then turns to Lilia-san with a somewhat frightened expression on her face, and as her voice trembled, she spoke.
[……M- My Lady…… I- I have now…… finally understood…… My Lady’s feelings…… Miyama-sama…… is scary.]
[I understand. I understand so much that it was painful for me. Luna…… Take a slow, deep breath and put your body in a good position. It isn’t Luna’s fault…… It’s just that Kaito-san is a monster. Our common sense doesn’t apply to him.]
[My Ladyyyy……]
[Let me know as soon as soon as it gets painful. We have stomach pills prepared……]
What the heck is with their exchange…… Lilia-san’s words feel as if they held deep weight on them……
I’m treated like a complete monster here, but since it was Lilia-san who said that…… From what I’ve done so far, I can’t say anything.
[Lu-chan? Are you alright?]
[……Am I alright…… isn’t the question here!!! What are you doing, Mom!?]
[Eh? What, you ask…?]
When Noir-san worriedly asked her, Lunamaria-san stands up as if she was bursting with energy and draws closer to Noir-san with a very menacing look on her face.
The people around us are overwhelmed by her intensity and are unable to interpose.
[It’s all fine and good if you came to thank Miyama-sama for saving you! I’ll also thank him later…… However, what’s with that outfit!?]
[Is my outfit…… strange?]
[It isn’t about being strange or anything like that! Why are you wearing an open-shouldered dress!!!? Looking closely, you’re also wearing make-up, even though you rarely wear them!!!]
[That is, ummm……]
Hearing Lunamaria-san’s cries, Noir-san shyly held her cheeks with both hands…… and for some reason, she was repeatedly glancing at me.
[I’m a woman too…… so if I’m going to meet a dreamy man, I at least want to be a little fashionable……]
[What, aren’t you aware of how you look!!!? Please consider how old you are!!!]
[Lu-chan…… I’m only “480” years old, you know?]
[Even though you’ve already lived nearly five times as long as a human’s lifespan……]
If she’s going to say it like that, Kuro, who Lunamaria-san is being fanatical about, is hundred or thousands of times older than I am, and she’s wearing half-pants…… Though let’s not say it.
Hmmm, I guess from Lunamaria-san’s point of view, her mother appeared, wearing a youthful-looking outfit, but Noir-san didn’t seem to care and just smiled at her…… Unnn, she’s strong.
Noir-san, who really felt like she would easily be pressured, was able to nonchalantly brush aside Lunamaria-san’s words, and it feels like Lunamaria-san decided that her words won’t work…… So, she just held her head in her hands.
And then, Noir-san turns to me and holds out the basket in her hands, her cheeks cutely blushing.
[……Miyama-san, thank you again for that time…… Ummm, at least to thank you, I baked some muffins. It would be great if it suits your taste……]
[Ah, no, you didn’t have to go all the way…… Noir-san, is your body alright after that time?]
[……Yes. Since I’ve been “drinking Miyama-san’s”, I’m really healthy these days.]
[!? P- Please wait a moment. Mom!? Drinking Miyama-san’s…… W- W- What does that mean!?]
……She’s talking about blood. However, Noir-san said it poorly, and Lunamaria-san, who seemed to have some kind of strange misunderstanding, her face turned pale as she looked at Noir-san.
I was going to explain it to her, but before I could speak, Noir-san said something outrageous.
[When I first met him, Miyama-san generously allowed me to drink it. It was so dense, enchantingly sweet, and it makes me feel so good that thinking about it makes my body quiver.]
[Whaa!?]
[W- Wait…… Noir-san?]
She’s only talking about blood, but when she worded it that badly…… And with blushing cheeks and the ecstatic expression on her face, even people other than Lunamaria-san would misunderstand her.
[W- W- What are you thinking about!!!? Putting aside if you know each other for a while, but you shouldn’t do that on the first day you met! Don’t you feel sorry for Dad!?]
[However, even if I tried, I couldn’t drink his.]
[I’ve certainly heard that half-elves aren’t sexually active!!! But that doesn’t mean it’s okay if it’s a young human male…… In the first place, it’s insane to make such a statement in a place like this, filled with young women!!!]
[Ummm, Lunamaria-san…… Lunamaria-san!!!]
[What is it, Miyama-sama…… I’m talking about something important now……]
As I thought, she completely misunderstood. It feels like it would be ridiculously troublesome if I didn’t, so I desperately called out to Lunamaria-san.
Thereupon, Lunamaria-san turns her murderous eyes towards me, replying with a low, cold voice.
[……She’s talking about blood.]
[………………Eh?]
[No, like I said, what she drank…… it was my blood. It sounds like my blood and Noir-san’s body were compatible, so she asked me to give her some to treat her anemia.]
[……Blood?]
[Yes.]
[……]
After hearing my words, Lunamaria-san scowl froze…… And as her face turned red, she crouched down with her hands covering her face.
……This is no good, I can’t call out to her. And as if to deal the final blow to Lunamaria-san, who looks like she would die from shame……
[Lu-chan, it’s as Miyama-san said, we’re talking about blood. It’s not like we had sexual intercourse, you know?]
[ ~ ~!?!? ]
And there goes the finishing blow!? With a calm look on her face, she just dealt the finishing blow!? Noir-san…… How frightening, this person is…… Lunamaria-san looked like she’s already crying……
[In terms of having sexual intercourse with someone, I also certainly think that—— [ Noir-san, stop!!! ] ——-Eh?]
[Lunamaria-san clearly understands it already!!! So please don’t talk about it anymore!!!]
[……Eh? Ah, yes. I understand.]
Lunamaria-san’s heart was about to be crushed by shame, so I hurriedly stopped Noir-san. She won’t do anything good, dealing more damage after she dealt the finishing blow, because Lunamaria-san’s spirit is already in shambles.
The best thing to do is here is to leave her alone…… While thinking that, I was about to speak to Noir-san to buy some time for Lunamaria-san to recover, when I heard people whispering to her.
[……How should I say this, it certainly is strangely realistic since the other party is Kaito-san, isn’t it?]
[Right~~ If it’s about Kaito-senpai, it can’t be helped if you think like that.]
[……Hey, I have something to talk with you two later.]
[ [ ……Eh? ] ]
It seems that my two kouhais have a very disgraceful misunderstanding about my character…… so I’ll go explain to them properly…… along with some grueling scolding.
Dear Mom, Dad——– To my surprise, Lunamaria-san’s mother was the anemic half-vampire…… Noir-san, who I met earlier. When I was talking to Noir-san, Lunamaria-san seemed to be a little different and less carefree than usual, and it might be impolite for me to think this—— but I think she’s kind of cute.

{Author’s Notes}
Note: They’re talking about blood. This is a very wholesome novel.
???: [Here’s an announcement. I heard that the author’s sister drew a picture of Alice. I heard that the author’s wallet died because of that, but no one really cares about that. It’s in the Activity Report. Alice-chan is cute, and Alice-chan’s great arc is inevitable…… No, it’s not like I’m in any way related to Alice-chan, I’m just her fan.]
**********
I asked my sister to draw Alice as well.
Here’s the rough draft.
