Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

"You bastard... I don't even remember the last time I cried as much as I have cried today.

How will you compensate me for this one, hum? Bastard?"

She was calm now, and this compensation she was asking while pressing her body against mine felt weirdly weird and good and strange and well...

"Will a lovely water spirit suffice?" I asked with a genuine voice as my eyes started clearing up and the endless-looking tears slowed down from her casual words.

She was the same until I said that one, but as soon as she heard that, her grip on my back tightened and I heard her cheerful voice.

"Really?! I knew you can't use that stone but, you will just give it to me? You know how precious that one is, right?!"

She was practically plastered against my body and right now, I could feel everything, and I mean everything, too clearly.

And my hands were on her back... this should be enough.

Releasing my hands and making her realize things were getting faster again, we both went back to our seats with a flustered expression.

"Ahem! So, you will really give it to me?"

She asked again, but this time was just to clear this strange atmosphere.

And I just took a deep breath and cooled... the things down.

She, too, sighed deeply and smiled at me.

While looking at each other, we both chuckled and shook our heads at these sudden childish reactions.

We didn't have to do everything today, and she knew it.

There was plenty we had to talk about, and this time, we truly had the bastard called time.

I know we do. No need to even think about the supernatural stuff that brought trouble to me.

Leaning forward, I looked her in the eye with a proud smirk on my face.

"I won't lose anything from giving away one of the seven intermediate spirit summoning stones to the one I like.

Besides, I will also help you in preparing a special summoning circle so that a spirit most compatible with you will get summoned."

She blinked multiple times at those words, trying to comprehend what I had just said.

"Y-you have six more spirit stones? You... freaking kidding me?" she cussed with a cute frown on her face, and I leaned even closer to that adorable face.

And after getting almost by her ears, I whispered, "I also have three summoning stones for advanced spirits but, we can do that one when you are strong enough to have two spirits and summon an advanced spirit.

I know just how much Mana, an advanced spirit, sucks out just to materialize after being summoned."

Her eyes widened in utter shock and she turned her face toward me, almost colliding with my face, but I backed off instinctively before that.

And... she turned her head in my direction on instinct, too.

This one surprised me, but I just backed to my seat and looked at her star-filled eyes in surprise.

There was a bright smile on her face and those big eyes sparkling with stars in this early morning were just adorable.

Hiding my smile with my hand, I looked at her excited expression again with pleased eyes.

"Why are you so cute, Rein?" I couldn't help but ask, and the expression on that cute face took a sharp turn from surprise to anger.

"Shut up! Answer the goddamn question if you want to sit on that chair, or should I just throw you down?!"

She was serious and the way she was looking at me with a sudden red fire in her eyes said everything I didn't even want to hear.

This look send shivers down my back... genuine ones, and I was feeling the fear that not even a berserk (Green) ranked beast managed to induce in me.

Wiping off the pleased face and returning to normal so fast that it seemed like a dancing bird changing its attempt and running away in fear of death from the existing partner... I nodded with hesitation.

"I-I am sorry. But, yes. What I said was one hundred percent true.

We can try summoning after breakfast. How about it?"

She caught onto the fear in my eyes and understood that I was understanding enough to understand the gravity of this situation.

Giving me one last look of not saying something so foolish, which was a genuine fact, she sighed deeply.

"Haaa... we both are just weird. How great are the adults to understand and handle us?" She wandered with genuine praise in her eyes, and I naturally agreed with that.

"They are amazing. Marvelous even. I'm thankful to have such a great family."

There was a new kind of admiration and light in my eyes, which surprised her greatly.

This light was something different, something she couldn't understand, but felt familiar at the same time.

But she didn't think too deeply about this and grabbed my hand resting on the table.

After all the things that happened here, this much was nothing so, I just stayed like that and looked at her with my chin on my free hand.

She did the same... and just kept looking at each other.

"Tell me more about yourself," I asked while staying like that.

"Why don't you start this game, my dear friend Eon?"

There was a genuine, mischievous smile on her face, and I liked that smile for some weird reason.

And the game she talked about... was just the old, simple, talk to know each other better.

And I had no problem imitating a game I would easily win.

"I like cooking. I also love archery. I love many things and most of this is possible, and I'm even alive right now, is all thanks to my master..."

I started telling her about myself and this was the easiest way to know as much as I wanted from her.

She will tell me everything, and I don't have to even worry about it.

Well, this was natural for me now.

So, we just continued this talk on this rooftop as the dawn graced us with the first gentle rays of sunlight.

And the scene of seeing the horizon painting the whole forest area around this estate and the enormous castle itself was amazing.

Some of the longest days of my life ended with something special and now... I had a special person in my life.

This progress in this short time might seem too fast to some but, this definitely wasn't.

We were far slower than many and I knew it would progress slowly, even if it just goes naturally.

We are just friends for now anyway...

'I knew both of our families would be happy. Thankfully, they understand that we understand things and won't bother us much.'

We can just go as slow as we, I mostly, wanted without any interference.

Rein, an amazing person... and my family, a marvelous bunch.

I came back yesterday but... it generally feels like I was never away from them.
