One day some time after adding a bath in House Extension.
　I had come with Sisha to hunt in the Goblin Forest to collect magic stones early in the morning.

''Oi, it's time to take a break!

'Yes!　Please wait a moment!

　After going into the forest and hunting for a few hours, I called out to Sisha, who was still fighting to take a break once.
　She then replied cheerfully and grabbed the head of the goblin in front of her in an eagle grip.
　Immediately after that, the prominence finger, the glove Sisha was wearing, exploded with a red glow.
　Not just the head, but more than half of the body is erased by that blast, and the goblin disappears as a particle of light.

''Whew, here you go!

You still have the same nice smile...

''Yes, after all, it feels good to be able to defeat a demon by yourself. It's a bit lacking when you're dealing with goblins and orcs, though.

Yeah?

　Sis-ha came toward me with a big smile, wiping her forehead with her hand as if to say she had finished her work.
　I knew Sis-Ha was very lively when she was hunting.
　Today, he threw an orc headfirst into the ground and smashed its head with a front kick before it hit the ground and did all sorts of terrific things to defeat it.
　He's even added a prominence finger bombing, and he's really becoming something like a priest.

　While I was dumbfounded by such Sisha, I decided to move out of the forest for now and take a break for lunch.
　I could have used food from the gacha, but before I left the house, Noor made some for me and Sisha to carry.
　When I opened the lunchbox wrapped in a cute pink bag, I found a lot of things like lettuce-like vegetables, eggs and meat sandwiched between white bread.
　Is this........a sandwich?
　I began to share the sandwich, which seemed a bit much for two people to eat, with Sisha and I began to eat it.

''Hmm.......This is delicious. It seems to be a little too much, but........''

'Nole made this based on his own standards... well, it's good, I guess.

　It looks simple, but it's all well seasoned and delicious.
　I chuckled at the amount of food that seemed to be enough for about three people, but I quickly ate it all up, probably because I was hungry from moving.
　Then, during the post-meal break, I started talking with her about a few other trivial things as it was....

''Noll-san has been cooking a lot lately, hasn't she? Thanks to her, Okura-san and I have been cooking less and less, so that's a big help. Besides, Noll-san's food is delicious.

'Well, even that's a self-proclaimed maiden. Why don't you follow Sisha's example and become a maiden... or in your case, a lady?

'You are a rude man. I'm still a respectable lady. Don't you think you should act a little more like a man, Okura-san?

What?　Oh, I'm good!

　Maybe if it's just looks, but if you take into account what's inside, it's not ladylike at all.
　And she even said it wasn't manly to argue with me.
　It's not that I don't need to be manly - I don't care.

''Huh... that's why you'll only use thin books.

What's that got to do with it?　Come to think of it, how dare you expose me the other day!　I've had a lot of trouble with Esther questioning me since then!

　It was tough after the last thin book revelation.
　They didn't confiscate it or anything, so that was good for me....

'Your brother is a man, you can't blame him.

　Esther understood the thin book, but then she asked me to let her read it for reference.
　But afterwards, she asked me to read what kind of books she had collected for reference.
　I don't know what the purpose of reading the thin book is, but for some reason I felt very uneasy at that time.
　I managed to convince him that it's not something for girls to see, and he backed off for a while.

　That fiasco had made it vague that Sisha had accused me of the existence of the thin book... but I'm going to take this opportunity to demand an apology!

'I couldn't resist slipping up on that one and I'm really sorry about that.

Are you sure?　Are you really sorry about that?

It's true. If you want, you can have your hands on this part of the body as an apology. Okura-san, I think you like breasts.

Geez..........you son of a b*tc*.......

　Sisha grins and shows me her wide open chest toward me.
　I have a lot of my treasured collection with a girl with large breasts drawn on the cover.
　It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

　This guy.........he's completely teasing me because he thinks I won't touch him. He's got no remorse.
　Last time you showed me your breasts and said you enjoyed the reaction. Is this the same thing?
　I won't stand for your attitude, every time you act like you have the time to spare!　You think I'm a slacker and you're getting all worked up!
　I'm going to let you experience what I'm going to go through once I'm serious about this place!
　I'm going to tear that smug grin off your face!　Should we leave it at a vendetta, or know the wrath of Heihachi!

　Determined to do so, I uttered a counterattack.

'Well, then, let me touch you.

...eh...

　When I closed in on Sisha with a waxy hand, her grin changed to a surprised look as she rolled her eyes.
　Then she suddenly hides her exposed bosom with her arms and takes some distance from me.

'Oops?　What's the matter with you covering your breasts?　Maybe you're getting cold feet?

Oh... uh... well, I mean...

　I don't know if she was expecting me to tell her that I was going to touch her, but she looked away from me and was very confused.
　Whew, we did it. It's just as I thought.
　And it's surprisingly cute that they've become so graceful at this level.
　The always strong-minded Sis-Ha showing her figure like this, it's kind of tantalizing.

"Haha, if you want me to stop, you should apologize now.

Ggh, ggh, ggh.

Hey, hey, hey! What's up?　I'm really going to touch it!

Okay.

"...hmm?　What?

　Of course I wasn't going to touch her, so I was going to forgive her if I apologized here.......but Sisha suddenly said something.

'I said I understood. I'm the one who said it, you know. So here you go!　Don't be shy!

What?

Come on in!

　Sisha exposed her hidden bosom and thrust out with her hands on her hips to stretch her breasts.
　She's breathing hard and slightly aroused.
　I didn't expect that to happen.......seriously.
　And yet, if I pull back here, it's always the same again!　Maybe it's just bravado!

You're sure?　I'm serious, okay?　Now's the time to apologize, okay?

Yes, I don't mind!　No two words for a priest!

　I put my hand out in front of my chest to really touch it, but Sisha didn't seem to be wavering or running away.
　

"Touch it if you can!　If only Okura-san could do that!

But I can do it!　If you say so much, I'll do it!

　This guy just got even more agitated!
　d*mn it, I'm not going to back down on this one either!
　Yeah, okay, I'll touch you. I'm gonna prove to you that I'm not a wuss.

　I put pressure on my hand to touch the deflection in front of me.
　I tried to move my hand forward, but it wouldn't move. No, I can't move.
　It doesn't listen to me as if my arms are not my body.
　Why!　Move, move, move, move!　I'm not a slacker!

What's going on?　Your face is turning red. Ufufu, it's still impossible for Okura-san to do it.

'Even a cis-ha like that is red to the ears. You're really pushing yourself, aren't you?　Look, just apologize and I'll retract this hand, okay?

No, it's not!

　Seeing me not moving forever, Sisha was grinning at me with a face that was red to the ears.
　And apparently, my face is turning bright red too.
　If you ask me, my face is hot, my heart is beating fast, and my breathing is slightly ragged and thirsty.
　Apparently, I was very nervous without realizing it.

　After that, we stared at each other for a while in silence, both of our faces turning red.
　I'll go meanwhile!　Tell him!　I was trying my best to do so, but I couldn't get my hands on it, as if it was an unconscious stop.
　And gradually my head started to get cold and I began to wonder what I was doing.

'You know what ... can't we just stop?'

...Yes.

　Sisha seemed to feel the same way, so they stopped staring at each other and lowered their shoulders and both breathed.

'I guess I got a little carried away. I'm sorry.

'No, I'm sorry too. Sisgah is a slippery slope to begin with, you know. It was an accident, yes, an accident.

''Ugugu I have no words to say back. From now on, I promise to never speak of it even if I find it.

Yeah, let's stop looking for it first, okay?

　There are times when Sisha gets so loose mouthed that she self-destructs and gets mad at Esther.
　Let's just call it an accident and forgive him for once.
　Conflict is ugly, it's important to forgive with a forgiving heart.

　I thought the fight was over and I was relieved, but after that, there was no conversation with Sisha for a while and she remained silent.
　I'm not sure if it's because of all the things I was doing a few minutes ago that I felt awkward.

　I'm not sure what to do with it, but Sisha broke the silence from her side.

It's a good thing that you're able to do that, Okura-san, you've become a lot better at moving around.

Yeah?　Is that about combat?

Of course it is.

　Suddenly, he started praising me.
　I'm sure there's a huge difference between you and Nohl and his team, but I've defeated quite a few demons, so even though I was a normal person, I think my movements have improved a bit.
　And the equipment is getting better and better, so it would be strange if my movements didn't improve with this.

To be honest, after Okura-san became able to play the role of a shield with distinction and Luna-san joined the party, I don't get to fight directly with her anymore. Am I just going to end up watching the backs of Okura-san and the others?

'Uh, yeah...?　Isn't that enough?

Tsk.

　Sisha started to say with a somewhat sad face, but since she was a priestess, that would be fine.
　When she said that, she changed her expression and clicked her tongue.

''Oh, don't click your tongue.

'Make me want to comfort you, it's not that!　I was going to have you say, "I'm sorry, but I guess I didn't.

I wouldn't fall for that kind of trickery.

　If I'm comforted by that, then I'll do my best to charge in, too!　I wonder if he was going to say........

But even if my chances of fighting during the party decrease, I can still come hunting with Okura-san like this. When it's just you and Okura-san, I feel more at ease than usual.

'I think Sisha is usually a freebie but she was bad enough with Luna, but she's not reserved about a lot of things when she's alone with me.

Is that right?　Then, from now on, I'll speak to Okura-san with a compassionate voice and gestures. Yes, nikko.

'Whoa!　I mean, that scares me, so please don't do that.

　Sisuha clasped her hands in front of her chest and gave me a smile.
　It's a nostalgic smile, like the one she gave me right after I summoned her.
　He had a smile that made him look like a very nice person at the time... but when I look at him now, a shiver runs down my spine.
　Is it because I know what's inside?

''Please don't react like that with my best smile!

"Wouldn't you react the same way if I did the same thing?　Come on, grin.

'Whoa!　I mean, don't look at me like that!

　I give her a grin and a toothy smile in return, and Sisha stands up and keeps her distance, rubbing her two arms.
　I'm a bastard for that reaction!　He chased after them lightly and angrily, and the two of them forgot to hunt and started to chase each other.
　After a little while, we both laughed at how stupid we really were, and went back to hunting to collect the magic stones.

''Come to think of it, what would have happened if I had really touched it over there?''

'You didn't do anything.　I wouldn't have said it was okay to touch him if I really didn't want to.

"...What?　Wait, what does that mean...

Uh-huh, I'll leave it to your imagination.
