Hey, guys, I think it's time for lunch. Just En?


　En, who was in the shade of the grass, turned around to hear the voice, and found that the door, which had been placed in the courtyard, had been opened before she knew it.
　Strangely enough, what you see on the other side of the door is not a view of the courtyard, but a view of the room where she usually lives.

　And from the door emerges a young man with dark hair like En.

　It's the Lord she admires with all her heart and wants to be with forever.

...... hide-and-seek in the middle

"Oh, that's right. Is this courtyard the only range?

"...... so

　The courtyard is quite large since Yuki put a lot of effort into building it, but for these girls who have plenty of energy to spare, it's not so much a matter of space.

　By the way, since the Wraith girls are translucent, no one will be able to find them if they are hidden behind walls or trees, they are playing hide-and-seek with the dolls Yuki gave them.

I love it. Sounds like fun.

　Her Lord laughed and said so.

　His expression warmed En's heart as well.

How do you think you're getting along with everyone?

"....... Everyone is so good.

　At the Lord's words, he gave a small nod.

　I'm not very good at talking to people, but all the kids here accept me for my lack of words, and they include me.

　I'm embarrassed and happy about that.

　The reason for playing hide-and-seek in the courtyard is because En cannot be more than a hundred meters away from the main body of the weapon, and her body is currently placed on a bench in the courtyard to increase her range of motion.
　If you play hide-and-seek outside of the courtyard, the range of activity would be reduced for En, so the other children took care of the courtyard.

Oh, well, that's good.

　Her Lord stroked the girl's head happily, seemingly happy that En was getting along with everyone.

　A large hand, rugged and yet warm, large.

　The comforting touch of the hand made En involuntarily reach out her arms and place her own hands further on top of Yuki's palms, discreetly pressing his hands to her head.

　--After almost unconsciously seeking the Lord's hand, En realized with a start what she was doing, and she let go of Yuki's hand, waddling and panicking.

　Unsure of what to do, emotions rampage through En's chest, messing with En's head.

　The thought of whether the action she has taken is not disrespectful to the Lord or unpleasant to Him, comes to her mind.

　She has only been born a short time since she got her vessel as "her" and was born as "her". Therefore, she doesn't know how to show affection yet.

　You will be able to get a good idea of what you are looking for, and you will also be able to get a good idea of what you are looking for.

　Noticing that the Lord has a gentle smile on his face, En understands that he doesn't seem particularly uncomfortable, he recovers his confused head a bit, drops his waddling arm and continues to be petted like a borrowed cat.

　Flowing, never a bad mood, silent time.

　As you are enjoying the Lord's hands for a while, blushing with happiness and embarrassment, a voice from the back of the courtyard reaches En's ears.

Oh, En-chan, I found you at last! -- say, Onii-chan!

　En turned his attention to it, and before he knew it, he was the last one left in hide-and-seek.
　Iruna, who used to be an ogre, had come over here from the back with three wraiths and Shi, who had been possessed by a doll and floated around.

　When the Wraith children find Yuki, they happily slide through the air towards him and begin to drift around him in a circle.

"Wow, haha, you're still going strong, guys.

　Yuki removed her hand from En's head and went to work with the three sisters as they joked around.

Ah ......

　A lonely voice involuntarily escaped from En's mouth as the Lord's hand left her, and at the sound of her voice, the gaze of the three sisters and Yuki gathered on her.

　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

''Oh, eh, ah, ......''

　Yuki also grinned and squatted down a bit and came up to her, put her arms around En's thighs, lifted her up and held her in his arms.

"Ah, ah, ah, Lord ......

Come on, boys, food. You'll have fun after you've eaten. Ray, Louie, Lo, you can come home. You won't eat, but will you have fun with us?

　Seeing Iruna and Shih cheerfully replying, and the three sisters of the Wraith raising one of their possessed dolls' hands in reply, Yuki, with En in her arms, retrieves En's body on the bench on the way with her other hand, and heads straight for the door to return to the True Throne Room.

'Huh, that's great, En!

　Iruna, who had turned to Yuki's side and into En's arms, looked up at her and smiled and said with a smile.

." ............

　En was somewhat embarrassed to be seen in his current form, and he buried his face in Yuki's neck area with a small nod in response to her question.
