There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field

38. crime and Punishment

On the way back to the dormitory, I was holding on to my shirt with my hand closed, lest anyone see my shameful appearance.

Fortunately, it was after the sun had set, so there were few people, so I was able to come without encountering a single person.

But… why… why did you come out of my house…

Even if everyone in the academy saw my appearance, there was only one person who shouldn’t have seen my clothes that were untied.

Luna slowly approached me.

Could time pass so slowly?

one step. two steps. Luna slowly approached me.

Luna stood in front of me without saying anything and ran her fingers through the center of my chest where my flesh was barely visible.

A word from her next.

“Isn’t my eyes wrong…?”

Luna’s complexion darkened.

Luna must have thought she had seen something wrong.

it could be I would have thought so too.

That’s true, too, since these weren’t signs of a battle, but traces of someone deliberately taking off my clothes.

The jacket is fine, but it is not easy to damage only the shirt inside.

Frankly, I was in a state of resignation.

Now that I’ve seen this, my trivial excuses won’t be heard by her anymore.

punishment.

I can’t escape punishment for ignoring her advice.

Because that’s Luna.

Because of Luna blocking my way, I stood on the porch without even taking off my shoes.

“…why didn’t you say anything…?”

Luna chanted.

“what…?”

“Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Usually, she didn’t listen to my explanation, so it was funny when she said why she didn’t explain.

“If I tell you… will you believe me…?”

There was a slight coolness in my tone.

“what…?”

Her eyes, which had turned blue due to the ring, trembled in anger.

“Now… I… don’t care how you go around. Is that so…?”

I felt the air around Luna getting distorted.

It was probably Luna’s fault that the temperature around her went down.

“Sirius. Look at you.”

She flapped my shirt, which I had been trying to fasten.

My stomach was open to her.

“See…? This…?”

She caressed the bottom of my belly button.

A small wound, as if someone had done it with a fingernail, was left without my knowledge.

It must have happened while blocking Yuri earlier.

“Even like this… you… you’re not going to say anything to me…?”

Luna’s face contorted.

She brought her hands to her face and washed her face dry.

“…Who’s doing this?”

“It’s not like that.”

“Who are you talking about!”

she shouted at me

I turned my head and didn’t answer.

There were traces of Yuri’s unexpected behavior, but I didn’t want to reveal it because I was responsible for the causal relationship with her.

“Is that a warrior b*tch?”

Luna turned her head and moved her gaze to the wall toward Seria’s room.

“I haven’t seen Seria today.”

“So. Raven? Is that the girl from your party who looked decent?”

“Even if it’s not like that!”

I couldn’t stand her asking me so persistently.

Normally, I wouldn’t be the type to shout at Luna, but it was me who had already consumed too much energy with the day’s work.

The accumulated fatigue made her nagging so painful.

Luna paused for a moment at my cry.

Suddenly, I felt sorry for Luna.

It was me who was wrong… Rather, I was annoyed.

“…why won’t you tell me…?”

Luna bit her lip.

“…Sirius. I don’t like it.”

“huh?”

“I don’t like it. You’re hiding this and that from me.”

Luna buried her face in my chest.

“To come back with scratches on your body from an unknown woman somewhere.”

Luna touched my wound.

“I hate it. I hate it so much. Sirius.”

I could feel the weeping tinge in her voice.

“Since I came to the human world, I’ve never felt comfortable.”

Luna looked into my eyes and spoke.

“Sirius. I don’t know about you, but under this blue sky is hell to me.”

“It was a land where not a single blade of grass grew, but I was happier in the demon realm where you and I were together.”

“You’re a hero. I couldn’t sleep for several days because I was anxious even in the Demon Realm that I was going to meet that child.”

Tears flowed from Luna’s eyes.

I felt a part of my heart ache.

Every single word Luna said became a dagger and stuck in my chest.

“So… don’t hide it… don’t get away from it… Sirius…”

Luna held my fingertips with trembling hands.

Her indescribable anxiety and sadness reached my fingertips.

I hugged her without saying anything.

“…Dog star…”

“Yes. Luna.”

“Now tell me. Who did it?”

She got out of my arms and looked at me.

ah. Still, this.

“Sorry Luna. I can’t say that.”

Luna untied my arm around her shoulder and lowered her head.

She turned around and took about three steps.

“…Not being able to talk about it until the end… means that you will be punished accordingly. Sirius.”

There was a sharp edge in her voice that still had a hint of crying.

if that’s what you want…

I’ll take it sweetly.

my master

The more I looked at Arin, the more cute he was.

Of course, because I’m a hero, it could be that he’s more kind to me in part, but even considering that, I still thought he was a cute kid.

Today, I went to Arin’s Magic Tower.

When I was living in the capital of the empire, I used to come and go and marvel at the scale of the Mage Tower, but I never imagined that Arin was the daughter of the Mage Tower owner.

And the magic she showed in the practice room inside the Mage Tower was truly amazing.

That level of achievement at that age, I thought it was okay to actually scout my party.

I’ve never seen Sirius use magic himself, but I thought that if he was Yuwol in all likelihood, he would have a hard time surpassing Arin.

After finishing the magic tower tour with Arin, our party went to the most popular restaurant in the capital and ordered various things.

Of course, Arin paid for the entire amount.

She was cute when she said that she would give it to her because she brought her there.

Acting like that with that kind of physique made me feel a little bit cuter.

After returning to the academy, I took a shower as usual, sat on the sofa, and looked at the darkened night sky.

Maybe it was because of the good weather today, the stars that looked like they were about to pour down covered the sky.

I got up, opened the window and went out onto the terrace.

Terrace.

Every time I come here, I come out with some kind of expectation.

I’ve been lucky enough to talk to Sirius a few times already.

So, in the evening when I was alone, it seemed that I would go out at least once every two hours.

Could I possibly meet him?

Can I have a little more talk with him?

I suddenly remembered what happened yesterday.

He said that he couldn’t be with me because he had to be next to Luna.

The more I think about it, the more I get frustrated.

If that’s the case, I’m not sure why I’m here for a 1st class and a half seat. I’ll give someone else a chance.

But it was even worse that he walked away.

I had to somehow get close to Sirius and make him confess that he was Yuwol.

the moment he admits I was ready to give him everything.

My status as a warrior. I will share all the benefits I have received and will receive with Yuwol.

And step by step, we just have to make our happy daily life again.

While I was drawing a hopeful future, I heard the sound of a window opening in Sirius’s room.

I leaned toward his room, wondering if we could talk today.

But what I heard wasn’t like his languid voice that I like.

“Please… please let me lick it. Please…”

It was Sirius’s voice begging for something to be licked.

He looked very distressed.

“Do you want to eat?”

Angry husky voice.

I know the owner of this voice.

Luna Giaros.

It was the voice of the thief who stole my Yu-Wol.

Just the presence of the two of them in Sirius’s room at such a late hour made him burn.

“I… I did everything wrong… Luna-sama… please have mercy…”

Sirius seemed to have done something wrong with her in the conversation, but I couldn’t figure out what it was.

His voice sounded like he was already insane.

It was the voice of someone who had been driven insane by torture or abuse.

“Then. You should show sincerity.”

After that, there was no conversation for a while.

I pressed my ears against the wall and focused on their sounds.

“Ahhhhh”

Luna’s moaning softly came over the wall.

Compared to the small sound I heard, I could feel my heart beating faster and faster.

What is that b*tch… making my Yu-Wol… do something…?

Yu-Wol was my everything left in this world.

He was like the world to me.

It was difficult to maintain reason.

I wanted to break down this wall or something and break into the next room.

“Sirius. How do my toes taste? Whoa… ha…”

However, I felt my heart break at Sirius’ answer that followed.

“It’s so delicious. It’s so delicious. Luna-sama.”

There was no strength in the legs.

Forgetting that I might be caught in the next room, I dropped to my knees right there.

Ah… Yuwol… What should I do…
