C6 p16

At this time, the first thing Aker should do was to leave the scene silently, but his brain was still in a state of excitement and just couldn't react in time.

Suddenly, the frosted glass door of the bathroom was pulled open with a "swish", and a soft thing hugged his waist from behind.

"Elder Brother Aker, please help me..."

Aker's rationality was blown away by the soft voice in an instant. He stared blankly at the arms that hugged his waist.

"Ve, Venus...?"

"Help me... Leah became so scary..."

Although Aker had given himself multiple psychological hints that he should stay calm, when the soft Venus begged himself with a soft tone, he still couldn't resist the desire to look back.

"I, I know, Venus, I'll help you..."

However, a stronger pull came, and Aker, who had not had time to turn his head, almost fell back.

"Give me back Venus!"

"No... Elder Brother Aker!"

"Wait, I'm going to fall, you two let go first!"

Leah's strength unexpectedly exceeded Aker's expectations, and he was still hugged by Venus so that he couldn't have any strength. He could only be pulled back step by step by Leah.

"Aker, let go of Venus!"

Leah increased her strength again.

"It's not me! Okay!"

"Elder Brother Aker, help me..."

Leah grabbed Venus from behind, and Venus hugged Aker from behind, but Aker couldn't turn his head back.

One person tried to move back, the other person tried to move forward, and Venus became the victim between the two of them.

At this time, Leah, who seemed to have finally exhausted her strength, suddenly released her hand, and Aker staggered a few steps forward and fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a large piece of steaming cloth covered his head. It was a bath towel that slipped from Leah.

"Hmph, I won!"

Leah stepped proudly on Aker's head, while Venus followed his inertia and fell on Aker.

Such a big movement naturally attracted Lynn and Loulou's attention. Venus rushed out of the bathroom naked, and Leah's towel was used to block Aker's sight.

Such a composition could only make people think that this was an attempted crime.

Therefore, Aker was forced to spend the night with the frozen sculpture outside the mansion.

Of course, he was knocked out at the scene of the incident before he was thrown out of the mansion.

…………

"You actually agreed to let that guy spend the night outside."

In the end, four girls huddled together to use the bathroom. Now Loulou and Lynn were lying in the middle of the bed in their room, and Venus was half-dragged by Leah and slept in her room.

"Elder Brother really stepped out of line this time, he actually..."

The light on the roof was turned off, and there was only a faint night light in the room.

Lynn couldn't see Loulou's expression at the moment, but she guessed that it certainly wouldn't be a forgiving smile.

However, Lynn chuckled this time.

"Because that guy is like that. You know it's probably not his fault, but you still can't forgive him. "

"Elder Sister Lynn, you seem to care a lot about Elder Brother."

"N, no, who said that! I don't care about him at all!"

"Hehe..."

"... Besides, I haven't found that church yet, there is another inexplicable association. I have an uncomfortable premonition..."

"What premonition?"

Loulou didn't know what Lynn was referring to.

"I always feel like something is about to happen..."

"Elder Brother, will he become..." Loulou changed the topic back to Aker again, "the kind of big man who will be recorded in the annals of history?"

"Pff!"

Lynn never expected that Loulou would think it this way. Loulou, who felt that she was mocked by Lynn, quickly found the reason why she would think so.

"Um... I was thinking, we have experienced so many unforgettable things before even entering the Frimaire Academy. It feels like it's our fate... It's the same with knowing Elder Sister Lynn and Venus, just like everything has been predetermined..."

"Fate..."

Lynn turned over and faced Loulou who had turned her head. The two finally saw each other's faces clearly.

Both could feel each other's breathing, which made Loulou and Lynn's cheeks red, but they continued to maintain this position.

"Elder Brother... Will he be alright?..."

Loulou was a little worried about the future. Not worrying about her own future, but Aker's future.

Because she firmly believed that as long as the Elder Brother was happy, she would be happy too.

Lynn stretched out her hand under the blanket and hugged Loulou, only to realize that her body was shaking gently.

"It's okay, I'm here."

Lynn gently stroked Loulou's back. Feeling the warm embrace and faint fragrance, Loulou's mood finally calmed down.

"That guy saved me twice, and I certainly won't let him be hurt by others in front of me. I will never forget this favor. "

Lynn made such a promise.

…………

Leah was awakened by the muffled thunder from far.

She had been afraid of thunder since she was a child. Only at this time would Venus be more reliable than herself.

Obviously, she was more mature, but every time Venus would stroke her head to comfort her, "Leah doesn't cry".

This happened a long time ago. At that time, she and Venus still had very different identities.

Leah got out of bed and walked to the window, opened the curtains, and glanced at the gloomy sky.

"It's going to rain..."

She muttered to herself.

Venus, who was sleeping half-naked next to Leah, rolled over. Of course, Leah was not by her side now, she could only grab Leah's pillow and hug it tightly. This situation made Leah chuckle helplessly.

Ever since Venus escaped the church, she had been reminiscing about the time she spent with her. But now she was here, where she could reach, it was like a dream.

Leah closed the curtains, and the room turned dark again.

"If they knew Venus' true identity, would they still accept her as they do now..."

She stood by the bed and looked at the white-haired girl with affectionate eyes.

"No matter what other people think of you, I will always be by your side..."

——If you are my shield, then I shall be your sword.

As the sword of Venus, Leah would never leave her.

She gently removed the pillow Venus was holding. Venus felt the thing she was holding in her arms disappeared. She took Leah's arm again after she lay down.

"You still haven't gotten rid of the bad habit. Whenever you fall asleep, you will just hold whatever you have next to you..." Leah stroked the bangs on Venus' forehead and kissed her lightly on the forehead. "Good night..."

The tranquility was restored in the room again.

…………

Meanwhile...

"Is it thunder?..."

Loulou woke up.

"It's fine……"

Loulou didn't know if Lynn was responding to her or talking in sleep, but she still had no signs of getting up.

"I wonder if Elder Brother has come in yet..." Thinking about it, she pushed Lynn who was sleeping beside her, "Elder Sister Lynn, let's go out and see them."

"Mhm... I don't have an Elder Brother..."

Lynn really was still immersed in an inexplicable dream.

"Elder Sister Lynn, you are seriously... Elder Brother and Shun may still be in the courtyard."

Loulou said. She was about to get up, but Lynn suddenly reached out and grabbed her pajamas. As she pulled her pajama ribbon on the back of her neck, her pajama immediately became loosened.

"Ya! Elder Sister Lynn, what are you doing!"

Loulou hurriedly stopped the pajamas from sliding downwards, but her shoulders were exposed in the air.

"Don't worry about him, Leah will let him go...zzz..."

Loulou couldn't tell whether she was asleep or awake. Probably because they had chatted until very late last night, Lynn, who would always get up early, seemed to be very sleepy today.

Loulou put on the pajamas that had slipped down her shoulders, got out of bed, and walked to the window, where the shy was still dim.

When she opened the window, the damp wind blowing on her body in the early summer morning felt very comfortable.

Loulou tied up the long sky blue hair that was blown by the wind and looked at the courtyard.

The crystal clear sculpture that stood in the moonlight last night was gone, but she also couldn't find  Aker and Shun who were supposed to be there. Although Loulou still wanted to check in Aker's room, she stopped when he remembered what happened before.

"Leah probably let them in already... That's probably what happened..."

If he went to Aker's room now and saw his sleeping face, Loulou wondered if she would do something she shouldn't do.

Loulou found an excuse to suppress the eager desire in her heart, and got into the warm bed with hesitation.

Chapter 7 Opportunity for Resolution

The raindrops finally could not bear the restraint of gravity, pouring down from the clouds.

"I'm going to be late..." Shun wanted to cry, but he couldn't shed a single tear.

The car was still locked in the garage by Leah, and in ten minutes the imperial Defense Bureau's morning meeting would start.

Aker, who was sitting on the next step, had already begun to nod off. As his head suddenly dropped, he was woken up again.

"My legs! So numb..."

Then he was lying on the corridor holding his legs with a painful expression on his face. As soon as he moved slightly, he would feel the tingling pain in his legs.

"It seems to hurt, are you okay?"

"I'm not! Why don't you feel anything after sitting here for so long? "

"Just walk around for a while after you wake up, then you will be fine. Maybe it's because of the special training I had in the past."

"You traitor..."

"Aker, if you have time, you should exercise more. It will be good for you."

While joking about Aker, the door of the mansion creaked open.

Aker ignored the numbness in his legs, immediately stood up from the steps, and pretended that he was fine. In any case, he didn't want other girls to see his appearance. This was the last self-esteem of being a boy.

A small head with long silver hair emerged from the crack in the door.

"Why are you here..."

"I also want to know why I am here..."

Leah didn't seem to remember what happened last night. Aker was speechless.

Shun on the other hand knelt down in front of Leah after doing a forward somersault. His final dignity of a man was simply nonexistent.

In fact, he had to ask for Leah's forgiveness in the fastest way, and then he had to ask for forgiveness from colleagues at the Imperial Defense Bureau later.

"Forget it, you can come in..." Leah, who seemed to have not fully woken up yet, withdrew her small head from the gap in the door, "Shun, you are soaking wet..."

"So please let me use the bathroom. I still have to go to work later."

Leah just waved her hand, signaling that Shun didn't need to ask her permission. And then, she swayed back into the mansion like sleepwalking.

When Aker approached the hall of the mansion, Lynn and Loulou came downstairs.

"Elder Brother!" Loulou dashed downstairs in three steps and jumped into the arms of Aker. "It's great that you're okay..."

"You are really silly, how can I be not okay? It just feels a bit cold after being covered with dew. If you are holding me like this, your whole body will become wet as well."

"Then please go to the bathroom right away. I will help you dry your clothes."

Even if Loulou couldn't use elemental magic, she could arrange these little things in daily life in an orderly manner.

The younger sister could help make up for things that Elder Brother couldn't do. This was the existence of siblings.

"Thank you, Loulou. Lynn, Venus, good morning. "

As soon as he entered, he was distracted by Loulou who suddenly jumped into his arms. Only now did he find that Lynn and Venus were just standing in the stairwell and looking at them both from a distance.

"Good morning, did you sleep well last night?" Lynn lifted her long golden hair with one hand, "It seems that I don't need to ask."

"Elder Brother Aker... good morning..." Probably Venus still remembered the accident last night, when she met Aker's eyes, her cheeks instantly turned red. "What happened last night... I don't mind it... "

"Hey, hurry up and take a shower. I have to go to the headquarters later."

"Wait, do you want to take a shower with me?"

"There's not enough time. If you want to take a shower as well, then let's do it together."

"No, no, I'm not in a hurry to take a shower, you can do it first."

"Little Sister Loulou will be angry so stop talking nonsense and come in with me."

Shun relentlessly pulled Aker closer to the bathroom, and the girls behind him watched their disappearing backs with interest.

"When Shun goes to the Imperial Defense Bureau later, let's go with him," Leah turned around and said. "Probably they are also busy with the Magic Train explosion incident. You are the targets of the Nemesis association, so you also need to understand the situation. "
