Second Night Camping Out

I'd been a bit short on sleep, so I dozed off for a little while.

"… Mn! That was a good rest…!

"Yuria, thanks for keeping watch. Now go get some proper rest."

"Sure. Garumon are tough, so pulling one or two all-nighters is no big deal.

"But I'll take you up on the offer."

And with that, Yuria returned to her capsule.

"Don't the monsters in this world get more active at night? Just one attack the whole night…

"Honestly, isn't that kind of slack? I'd be more worried if I were on the monsters' side."

"No, when that wave of a hundred came charging in, Setsuna-san's two consecutive Death Requiems pretty much wiped them out. I think that took the wind out of the other side."

"Really…? If I were a monster, I'd be pressing the attack without letting up. Otherwise the enemy's skill counts recover in about eight hours, and you can't finish them off…"

"Monsters don't have that kind of tactical or strategic thinking. It's basically brute force, and the stronger side wins. Or rather, the very idea of rotating eight-hour rests inside capsules to make a long stay in monster territory is something this world historically hasn't really had."

"… Oh, is that so? Then how were you planning to stay for three days?

"If we opened a Gate and everyone went home, the monsters would smash it first thing, so we'd have to keep guarding it, right?"

"Exactly. But since our numbers have grown, the rotation is half going home through the Gate while the other half stays."

"Ah, that's the plan I suggested at the start. I didn't want to split our forces in case a strong enemy showed up, though."

"There's also the option of requesting troops from the knights' order. It's paid, of course, but if you commission them to guard a Gate for three days, they'll carry it out."

"Hmm… so there's a method like that. But we want to level too, so this is just right.

"… All right, let's give it our best today as well."

"Yes, understood."

"Suzaa-nya! It's been forever-nya～! I'm so happy we're together again-nya～!"

Mugyuu! The two of them hugged each other tight.

"Aah, Adelia! I'm happy too! These fluffy cat ears, hafuu…!"

Suzanne, who normally wore a sharp, composed look, had her face all melted and slack.

"… Hah!"

Catching my fond gaze, Suzanne straightened up. A bit too late, maybe…

"Allow me to introduce myself once again. I am the Archangel Suzanne. Daughter of Mercheada, the strongest goddess, and the one who shall someday be the strongest Garumon! Now that I've joined, I'll be hammering you all up to my level, hard! I'll be strict!"

… When she introduced herself like that, everyone gave a wry smile.

"… Suzaa-nya. Goshujin-sama looks really kind, and he really is kind-nya. But during battle, especially during training, he's a demon-nya…"

"Oh, if that's true, that's reassuring. I'll ask for training so hard that even I cry uncle! To get stronger than I am now, that's the level we have to go!"

Suzanne burned with passion as she said it.

"… Well, given that you woke me up from incapacitation and threw me straight to the front line, then forced a tough role like skirmisher on me, then on top of all that, we got attacked by ten C-Class and one B-Class group and the plan is to stay two consecutive nights without rest, I get that even at this stage, it's nothing compared to that. But still, it has to be at that level!"

"That's wonderful. Then let's start consulting on our training plan from here on.

"First, Tempest. Is its area of effect limited to the ground surface? It saved us this time, but doesn't it fail against Garumon that can fly?"

"Mn… well, that's true. The shape is heat waves striking the ground and spreading outward in a circle, so the range itself is limited to near the surface."

"In that case, if you directed that heat wave at the enemy, wouldn't it work?

"Let's practice that in the next battle. Luckily, the Gurubon that show up here are pretty quick, so they'll make good practice for hitting fast enemies with Tempest. Let's alternate between firing from the ground and firing from up in the air after flying. Four reps each, then a break, then resume.

"Now, about practice during the rest period until your skills recover… Overcharge is really splendid. That Endure of yours, during a turn, does it always trigger no matter how many times your HP hits zero?

"Also, Angel Wing. I want Luna to practice this too, but I'm absolutely sure that 60% rate can be raised even higher with training.

"Since wings imbued with magic already have an effect that attenuates incoming damage, defending with the wings is essential to bring the damage ratio to 0.5x… ah, by damage ratio I mean the coefficient on a single hit varies from 0.5x to 2.0x. That's what I'm referring to.

"I want you all to aim for 2.0x on every dealt-damage hit, and 0.5x on every received-damage hit.

"When you took the enemy's attack in Overcharge, you didn't use your wings to receive it. That's no good.

"I do understand you did it on purpose, both to show off Endure's effect and to avoid wasting Angel Wing.

"But Suzanne, you haven't yet reached the level where the wings move to guard unconsciously, have you? Let's aim for that level.

"For weak attacks, consciously OFF it. This:

"Activate Angel Wing and receive with the wings.

"Don't activate Angel Wing and receive with the wings.

"Drill both sensations in solidly so you can consciously trigger that 60%. Cut strong attacks fully, and take weak ones at 0.5x with HP.

"So for training, I want you to consciously act as a defender and cut the enemy's attacks.

"Hold back consciously on Angel Wing's activation. Conversely, on attacks that look strong, deliberately activate it. Aim to control that 60% by conscious intent.

"And once Angel Wing's count hits zero, that's training for the OFF state. Let's also challenge how many attacks you can take.

"Those are the themes I want you to tackle."

… I'd run my mouth off, hadn't I?

… Oh, was she put off? Suzanne had frozen up.

But after staying frozen for a moment, Suzanne…

"… Yes! With pleasure! Aah… I, this, this is what I wanted to do! This kind of thing is what I wished for!

"Oh… let me call you Onii-sama! Naoto Onii-sama!"

She burst with joy.

"Y-yeah, then let's do our best in the Gurubon battle. Also, Suzanne, I'd like you to handle scouting for us as well.

"Spot the Gurubon from the air.

"Right, and also… let's have Luna practice flying together with you.

"… I'm really glad. We have absolutely no sense of what flying feels like, so Suzanne, I have a favor to ask: please teach Luna how to fly."

"Yes, of course. Now, Luna, come over here."

"Y-yes…"

Luna approached Suzanne with a tense expression.

"Luna, can you bring out your wings consciously? … In the Angel state, that's difficult. Once you reach LV30 and become an Archangel, you'll be able to.

"But, the way to bring out your wings while still in the LV30-and-under Angel state is… to use Angel Halo.

"Let's try it."

"Y-yes… Angel Halo!"

Shuba…!

A halo formed above Luna's head, and wings sprouted from her back. Truly the form of an angel. Beautiful…

Maybe because they were spiritual wings, they sprouted firmly out of her back without making a single hole in the pretty one-piece dress she wore.

"All right, let's fly right away. First, try moving the wings. Up… down…

"Don't move from the shoulder blades. They're spiritual wings, so move them with your will. Move the feathers. Imagine the wings as part of your body, and…"

"… Wha, wha… I-I moved them."

"That's it, that's it, looking good… Floating works the same way. The wings are just imagery. We angels… can fly, you know! Now, fly!"

"… I'll fly!"

Buwa…!

The two angels flapped their wings and soared into the sky.

"Whoa, whoa, whoaaa…!"

Luna's eyes were sparkling.

"Good, Luna, you're doing well. Just like that, keep flapping and soar higher. High up in the sky…!"

"Yes, Suzanne!"

And so, urged on by Suzanne, Luna danced gracefully across the sky.

The sight of two beautiful angels dancing across the auroral sky was truly fantastical.

… So, when she soared up, the fact that I caught a glimpse of Luna's panties… I'd just keep that unnecessary detail to myself.

The two of them held hands and danced gracefully through the sky… before eventually returning.

"Six Gurubon at eleven o'clock. No enemy traces nearby. They should be a manageable opponent."

"Good, then… it's a bit sudden, but can I leave the rookie escort to you? Suzanne, Luna, Patty. Let's go.

"First up is Tempest practice, so it's just plain power-leveling."

"Sure, leave it to me. I'll finish them in a single shot!"

"Yessirrr! I won't just be raising my level, but going at it while keeping a firm image of getting strongerrr."

"Yes, I'll do my best too."

And so the three of them came back with splendid results.

"Haa… Suzanne-san is so beautiful and strong and cool…! I want to become an angel like that, too…"

For Luna, who had been admired as an angel herself, to admire Suzanne, that's how splendid Suzanne was.

I mean really, she was incredible… For an angel like that to have been languishing under Reichhardt was such a waste.

I'd absolutely take her higher and higher. I'd show them.

That was the passion burning inside me.

"… Hmmm…"

At the rookies' showing, Kanan, the longest-running member of my crew, wore a slightly complicated expression.

Since everyone basically got along well, I hadn't really needed to worry about jealousy or rivalry between members up to now.

I thought a big part of that came down to personalities: Kanan was the only strong-willed one, and the other members were gentle.

… However, Suzanne, who had just joined, had a personality that seemed likely to clash quite a bit with Kanan.

This was something I wanted to clear up early, before any weird grudges could form.

"Kanan, got a moment?"

… …

…

"… Haaah…"

After about twenty consecutive battles, even Suzanne seemed worn out, so figuring it was good timing, I called out to her with Kanan and Adelia in tow.

"Good work. How was it? Your impressions of your first battle?"

"… So this is what 'since it's still your first battle and you're not used to it, let's keep it light' looks like, huh…"

"Eh, ah, mn… Was it that lukewarm? I did cut it off four or five reps before your limit, but…"

"… F-four or five!? Uuu… A-anyway, I now thoroughly understand that Naoto Onii-sama is a demon when it comes to training.

"If that's where my limit is, then I'll do it! … is what I want to say, but I won't push myself too hard. After a break, we'll resume, right?"

"Of course. After a break, I'll have you working hard again."

"… Hehe, yes, I'll do my best!"

That was what Suzanne said.

"… How's your condition?"

So I had Kanan talk with Suzanne for a bit.

"… It's nice. Like this, polishing each other among high-level Garumon.

"… For the last five battles, the three of us teamed up, didn't we?"

"… Yes, that's right."

"… It's the first time I felt like I lost to a Garumon my own age. I was frustrated."

"Lost? At what?"

"As a defender! My movement was slow, and I had you cover for me. Twice!"

"Well, I'm a specialist, so of course. There's no way you'd beat me when you've only been practicing defender work for a day or two."

"… Hmmm…"

At Kanan's remark, Suzanne wore a complicated expression.

"… But, well, that's the thing. Up until now, I was overwhelmingly superior as a matter of course, and if I broke down, everything was over…

"Coming from that kind of environment, even if I happened to fall, even though I won't fall! But still, the remaining members would handle it. It hit me that I'd come to a high-level environment where I could actually feel that. Of course, I don't intend to slack off because of it. If anything, I'm fired up the whole time. Even here, I'll be the ace! That's what I'm thinking.

"… I won't lose, Kanan. Right now, it seems you're called Naoto Onii-sama's partner, but I'll snatch that seat away from you!"

Suzanne held out her hand.

"… Sure, bring it on. Don't underestimate the bond between Naoto and me!"

Kanan grasped that hand back firmly.

"Nya, that's great-nya. I'm so glad Kanan and Suzaa-nya have become friends-nya."

Adelia rejoiced. That all my companions got along so well owed a lot to Adelia's power to be loved by everyone, her healing power.

I'd brought her along thinking that even if the two of them turned hostile, Adelia stepping in would soften the mood. Looked like things would be okay.

"… Kanan, thank you for getting along with my best friend Adelia all this time."

Suzanne hugged Adelia as she said it.

"… Hey, Suzanne? I don't see why you'd be saying that to me about my best friend Adelia."

Kanan hugged Adelia back as she said it.

"… Hold on, Adelia's number-one best friend is me! When we were anxious under that hopeless Master Reichhardt, the two of us comforted each other.

"You've been cozily living it up under such a wonderful Master as Naoto Onii-sama, haven't you?"

"T-that's… I won't deny that Naoto is a wonderful Master! But I was anxious too when I came to another world, and Adelia encouraged me through it!"

"Nya, nya-nya? Nyaa?"

A fight had unexpectedly broken out over Adelia!

"Whoa whoa, stop, stop!"

I rushed in between them.

"… Heh."

"… Hehehe."

"Nya～"

But the three of them were laughing.

"… Ahaha."

I laughed too. Somehow, it felt like things had settled in a good way.

… Maybe this was fine. Having a sense of rivalry within the group wasn't necessarily a bad thing. If they could all polish each other and grow stronger and more splendid through it, then so much the better.

… Even so, the sight of Suzanne, Adelia, and Kanan together…

If I'd lost to Reichhardt, would Reichhardt have been monopolizing this sight…?

When I thought about that, I felt a tiny flicker of murderous jealousy toward Reichhardt.

I'd been wondering why Ishiguro had gone so far as to commit murder, thinking he was overreacting to coming to another world… but…

In just the smallest, tiniest amount, I could understand that feeling.

The sentiment of not being able to forgive another man touching the woman you love is common to most men, after all.

"Even so, with the disadvantage of element and a level gap, you actually managed to win against Adelia with Kanan. As expected of Naoto Onii-sama."

"Yeah, looking back, that was actually pretty dicey, wasn't it? I did well to win that one."

"Nyanya～ Losing is frustrating, but it's the only battle where I was sincerely glad to have lost-nya～."

"… On that point, for me too, the one battle with Onii-sama is the only fight where I was sincerely glad to have lost.

"We get along, don't we, Adelia～"

"… Hey! All future battles are ones I can't lose, so we're the same now, aren't we?"

"… That is true. Kanan's the same."

"Same-nya!"

"Aw, geez, Adelia, Suzanne!"

Watching the three of them flirt was too much happiness… I wanted to keep watching forever.

Really… I was glad I won that time. If I'd lost… what would have happened?

"… Well, if it's Naoto Onii-sama, even if he had lost, he would've worked himself to death saving up 100G, gotten a Garumon from the gacha, climbed up from rock bottom… and along the way defeated Reichhardt and stolen the three of us back."

"He'd probably even pull a UR-Class Garumon on that single gacha pull."

They were going on like that.

That really would have been quite hard mode. Sure, it wasn't impossible.

… But I shouldn't have an "even if I lose I can take it back" mindset.

No, if I did happen to lose, I'd switch my thinking and resolve to take it all back at the cost of my life…

But I had to face it with the kind of determination where if I lost, I died. An absolute, no-losing, must-win resolve.

"… If I'd lost, that would've meant handing Kanan and Adelia over to Reichhardt… and that's something I couldn't accept even in death. The hypothetical of losing is meaningless. I will absolutely not lose."

"… Of course. You'd better never let go of me for the rest of your life!"

"! … Sorry, Naoto Onii-sama. That's right. There's no way I, even at LV14, could beat Naoto Onii-sama's LV1 Kanan!"

Even Suzanne went that far.

That was overestimating things by way too much, even so!

Around LV15 was where Luna sat, with stats all over 20 and HP over 40. Wind-element against Godkin meant dealt damage halved and received damage doubled, a complete weakness. There was no way of winning.

Well, there were impossibilities in the world… But at any rate, you had to do everything humanly possible to avoid creating those hopeless situations.

"… But Suzanne, that 'Naoto Onii-sama' way of calling him, are you really planning to make it stick…?"

"Is that bad?"

"I-it's not bad, but…"

"… I'd like you to get permission from me, Onii-chan's actual little sister, on that one."

My little sister cut in.

"Eh, then please, Setsuna-chan."

"… When you ask me that earnestly, I can't refuse. But I want you to engage with me a bit more interestingly, the way Kanan-san does."

"M-mn, that's a tough request… But, well, it's true. Let's settle whether I call you Setsuna Onee-sama, or Setsuna-chan calls me Suzanne Onee-sama."

"Yeah, let's settle that."

Setsuna nodded happily… I had a feeling she'd already gotten consent on the "Onii-sama" thing.

"First, simple question: your age? I'm fifteen, born in March."

"I'm fifteen, born in January. Plus, I was transferred half a year earlier. Effectively, sixteen. I'm Onee-sama."

"Mmmm… But my height and my breasts are bigger than yours."

"I'll grant you the height, but our breasts are about the same."

"That's not true…!"

"Then let's have Onii-chan touch them and confirm."

"Sure, that's fine!"

… Eh, it's fine?

When I looked at Suzanne…

"… A-actually, not yet… It's not that I dislike it, but… I-I'm embarrassed…"

Suzanne turned bright red and cast her eyes down… A reaction so fresh you wouldn't think she was a Garumon of this world!

"E-eh, ah, t-this Suzanne, it's not as though I'm e-embarrassed!

"T-that's it. W-when my level goes up, as a reward, I'll let you touch them! U-until then… no…"

A bashful tsundere reaction! What was this, so cute…

"I win."

"Uu, uuu… a-all right, I get it… Setsuna Onee-sama…"

"… Good. Suzanne-chan is cute."

Setsuna squeezed Suzanne tight, mugyu, and stuck her thumb up in satisfaction.

"Eeh? Hold on a sec. To everyone else, Setsuna-chan is like a little sister, you know!? And you, who calls Setsuna-chan Onee-sama, being on equal footing with me as a rival… my head's getting tangled up!"

A complaint from Kanan.

"Even if you say that… what should we do? Setsuna Onee-sama."

"Here, Kanan-san, you should call me Onee-sama, too!"

"O-oh, comeee on, no! Setsuna-chan has to be my little sister!"

Ahaha… a wave of laughter rolled through.

"Well, going by eye, Suzanne's breasts do seem a bit bigger.

"After that, well, real age aside, by Garumon experience and by combat experience, it does come down to Suzanne being the older sister."

"… Mmu, well, if Onii-chan says so… Suzanne Onee-sama."

"… Good! Setsuna-chan is cute!"

Suzanne squeezed Setsuna tight, mugyu, and stuck her thumb up.

Ahaha… again, a fun-sounding wave of laughter rose up.

It looked like Suzanne would be able to get along with everyone.

… And then, that night…

Today, Patty and Lyuka, then Suzanne and Setsuna, would take the watches.

First, Patty and Lyuka watched over the surroundings.

"For the next issue's Communications feature…"

"We still can't do an otherworld Master featureee…"

The two of them were chatting amiably.

… Now, time for me to rest, too…

Or so I thought, but with Patty and Lyuka away, a figure slipped into my solo tent.

… Setsuna, maybe? was what I thought, but the hair shining like gold under the moonlight was…

"Suzanne?"

"… Tch. Y-you were awake…"

It was Suzanne.

"Um… what is it?"

"… That, the daytime… promise…"

"? … Aah."

Now that she mentioned it. In the afternoon training, Suzanne's LV had gone up by 1 without incident.

"… F-for this Suzanne to break a promise is simply unthinkable… S-so… t-that is… i-it's all right…"

Shuru…

Saying so, Suzanne quietly began removing her top.

Sara… sara…

When she shed her white silk garments, beneath them was white skin lit by moonlight…

White, very, very large breasts. Their cherry-pink tips carried a faint redness, perceptible even under the moonlight.

Her naked body, lit by the aurora's light as well, shone fantastically beautiful… and white.

"… Suzanne, you're beautiful. More than this starry sky, more than the aurora… you're beautiful."

I said it as I felt it, and worried I might've laid it on too thick, but…

Suzanne's cheeks flushed red.

"You're not… pushing yourself? We've only just met. Bit by bit, slowly… we just have to come to understand each other. There's nothing to rush…"

I said that as I took her hand. Slender, supple, long fingers. Her hands were beautifully shaped, almost unbelievably so. Even the backs of her hands were smooth…

Aah, just holding her hand like this was more than enough to satisfy me.

"T-that's… I won't be satisfied with that…!

"T-this isn't just because I love Naoto Onii-sama so much I can't stand it… well, it's not just that…

"… D-don't think you'll receive this Suzanne's affection this soon!

"… R-right. As Setsuna-chan's Onee-sama, I can't fall behind my little sister, and as Kanan's rival, I can't fall behind either! R-right. This is a matter of my pride.

"S-so, um… no holding back, t-touch me…"

That's what Suzanne said.

… Told I could touch breasts this beautiful, this big, this alluring, I wasn't enough of a saintly gentleman, or enough of a withered husk, to keep my hands off them.

I'd already mustered every ounce of patience I had to hold back once… I couldn't manage it anymore.

"Suzanne…!"

I held her tight. Her bare chest pressed munyu against me, and aah, it was a heavenly comfort.

"… Tch. Naoto Onii-sama…"

"From here on… I'll cherish you so, so much, treasure you so much… and dote on you so much, Suzanne.

"We may not have been born brother and sister… but I'll show you I can be your Onii-sama…!"

"… Yes, Naoto Onii-sama…"

I… had to endure the trial of pulling away once and lifting Suzanne's bare chest off mine, but I bore through it…

And then, slowly… I touched her breasts.

"… Aah…"

"Hyu, n, nn…"

My exclamation of awe and Suzanne's sweet panting overlapped.

A melting softness… the touch of breasts was… I tried to compare it to silk or velvet or something nice, but I couldn't.

Nothing in this world felt better to touch than breasts, so what on earth was I supposed to compare them to?

The world's writers were amazing.

If asked to compare these breasts to something, I couldn't do it.

They were just… breasts. Just touching them was wonderful, wonderfully pleasurable… breasts.

Munyun, munyun, munyu…

Aah… Suzanne's breasts changed shape so much in my palms. The fact that I was kneading these beautiful breasts, this supreme art, with my own hands, muni muni, was unbelievable.

Wasn't this blasphemy against the divine? Such divinely beautiful breasts, savored as something soft and pleasurable, filling my palms…

Taste… was it okay to lick them too?

Touching was fine, but I hadn't been told I could lick… but… I couldn't hold back…

Pero, chu…

I touched my lips to her breasts.

What a… heavenly nectar! Again, beyond compare. It wasn't like I wanted wine or anything.

After all… aah, only "breasts" came to mind.

The feel of her soft breasts savored with my lips was truly exceptional… melting on the tip of my tongue, melting on my lips…

Dreamlike comfort… aaah…

I couldn't keep up… expression and all of that didn't matter anymore, I'd just go dumb. I'd stop thinking and just… breasts, breasts…

I wanted to keep melting into Suzanne's breasts…

"… S-stooop…"

At that point, Suzanne spoke up as if to stop me.

Had I been so absorbed I'd hurt her somehow?

In a panic, putting in a great deal of effort, I pulled back…

Suzanne was completely flushed, her whole body breathing heavily.

"Aah… I-I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"

And just as I was wondering what she was apologizing for…

A warm sensation below my belly…

This was… maybe…

Shaaaa… aaah…

"… Hauu… I-I'm so embarrassed…"

Whether it had felt too good, Suzanne had wet herself the moment she climaxed.

Oh dear… for a girl this divinely beautiful, this angelic… to wet herself.

So cute…

"… Hehe, it's okay. Wetting yourself because it felt too good, that happens all the time."

"… Really?"

Suzanne looked up with upturned eyes, asking as if pleading for affection.

"Yeah! I'm really happy that Suzanne felt good."

"… Onii-sama! I love you…!"

Mugyuu…

Suzanne hugged me.

"… B-but… if only Suzanne wets herself, it's still embarrassing… Onii-sama, p-please wet yourself too…

"T-that way, we'll be even…"

That was what she said.

… Eh, was she telling me to pee here too? But with such a rock-hard erection, peeing was completely out of the question…

… was what I thought, but maybe she meant let out the white stuff, not pee?

In that case, anything!

I took out my rock-solid erect penis. It was so painfully rigid that I worried whether even Suzanne's huge breasts could clamp it, but they wrapped around it splendidly. As expected of Suzanne's breasts, a touch larger than Setsuna's.

Muchi, munyu, munyun…!

Big breasts gently pressing in on me, the supreme paizuri sensation… Suzanne's breasts really did… feel good…

"Aah, I'm coming, I'll let it out, Suzanne…"

"Nn, Onii-sama, Onii-samaaa… aaah…!"

Dopyu, dopyu, pyuuu!

I let it spray all over Suzanne's face.

Onto Suzanne's goddess-beautiful, angelic face, my white fluid…

What a blasphemous act.

But… it felt soooo good…

I went limp, drained.

… And then, maybe because I'd been released from extreme tension, I started to feel the urge to pee.

I'll head to the toilet… I thought, and tried to move, but Suzanne… somehow wouldn't let go of her breasts.

I mean, since I was wrapped in soft, supple breasts, if I'd really tried to pull out I should've been able to… but somehow my hips had given out and I couldn't move.

At this rate…

Just then, Suzanne grinned mischievously.

"You haven't… let it out yet… right?"

"…!?"

No way… so she really did mean pee!?

Shaaaa…

"N, ha, a, aaah…"

E-eeeeh… whoa, whoa whoa, unbelievable… O-on this beautiful angel Suzanne, the girl I'd just said I'd cherish as a sister… I-I'd peed, peed on her…

And lots of it… I'd gone before bed, but maybe licking her breasts had stimulated my fluid secretion somehow…

Aaah… I'd peed all over Suzanne in great quantities…

Uu, the inside of the tent was completely covered in pee…

"… Hehe, with this, Naoto Onii-sama is the same as me.

"… The fact that this Suzanne wet herself because it felt too good never happened.

"Or if it did, it's a secret just between us two.

"… Got it?"

"… Yes…"

I really couldn't beat Suzanne. The two of us laughed together.

"… So, in this pee-soaked tent, are we sleeping from now on…?"

"Well, sleep over here for tonight. Suzanne Onee-sama, are you really okay to take watch?"

… But that tent, naturally, was being peeked into by the awake Lyuka, Patty, and Setsuna. I mean, we'd been doing it with the tent open enough for moonlight to come in, so of course…

"Hyu… I-I'm fine… I got plenty of energy from Onii-sama!"

Suzanne hurriedly straightened her clothes. Wait, my pee and semen and various things should've been all over her…

But somehow, she'd drunk down a fair amount, or it had been tidied up at some point.

She really had her act together.

"… Well, of course.

"Hmm, pee, huh… So Onii-chan is okay with that kind of thing too… As expected of Suzanne Onee-sama. I learned something."

Setsuna teased Suzanne, and…

"Hyu, t-that wasn't my intention…"

Teased by Setsuna, Suzanne went out to take her watch.

"Now, Naoto-san, hurry up and let's clean and dry the tent."

"Patty will help tooo. But after that, Patty wants the same thing done to herr…"

"You can't, Patty-san. Everyone else is holding back. Suzanne-san was special because it was her first time.

"… Once we're back home, we'll have him do it lots. Just one more night of patience."

"Got itttt… I'll be patient for nowww…"

… And so the second night deepened…

And on the third day, during the daytime, Lyuka's investigation results came in.

"… A three-year cycle. With about a week's margin of error. The next time the Gate opens is three years from now."

For the time being, only I heard the result.

So it would be three years, even if we did return…

It didn't really matter to those of us not going back, but for the people who wanted to return to the original world, learning they could only return three years from now would be bad news.

The angels… I'd been brushing it off for now, but how would they react to learning they couldn't return for three years…?

Whatever the case, I wanted to make sure they could spend those three years happily.
