37 Episode 37 "Awakening Cheat Daughter-in-law Second Form (Cecile)".txt (1/2)

What the hell?　Why?　Nagi-sama and me!

Yeah. Not the 'marriage' part, but the 'spirit link' part, which binds the souls together.

Yes, I know that much!　Nagi-sama and I are in different positions, and I'm not going to terminate the master-servant contract at ......, but are you serious? A joke or ...... mistake or ......

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Eeeeeeeen?

What I wanted to do with Cecil was the prelude to that 'Engage' thing.

Same thing!　Such a ...... Nagi-sama is me?

Cecil's little body is trembling. He's clenching the blanket in his little fists, half-hiding his face. His bare shoulders, his forehead, and the tips of his long ears are all red.

I sit in the chair next to the bed and look into Cecil's face.

'There's a deeper reason for this,'

Yes, let me ask you something.

In fact, I heard that if you make a 'soul promise' you can recover a great deal with special effects.

For that reason?

”Because it's not looking good for you, Cecil. The healer won't be here until tomorrow night.

'I don't think you should fix the future for that reason!

'Besides, it seems that when we 'soul-commit', we both awaken and get new skills.

...... That makes sense.

Cecil sighed and patted his chest.

'It's very Nagi-sama. Nah, is that what you mean?'

'Of course, the main reason I want Cecil to be there for me all the time is because I want him to be there for me.

Na Nagi-sama!

Cecil hugs the blanket and rolls around on the bed.

It's cute, but I'm not feeling well, so please don't do that.

It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get your hands on any more of my body heat. It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get your hands on any of these things.

With a plop, tears spilled from Cecil's eyes.

'It's not fair, Nagi-sama. Last time, you stopped halfway through the ritual ......

Before?

It's time for the Festival of the White Knot.

...... That one.

It's the one where the slave makes a master-servant contract with his master, even if he is reincarnated in the future, through the power of the ”God of Covenants”.

Why do you want to do that now?　I wanted to be Nagi's forever, and Nagi refused to do so. ......

No, not when it's a 'reincarnated master-servant contract'.

Why?

Because if we're reborn in a world without a master-slave covenant, we're in trouble.

Cecil's eyes darted to the ground.

Huh?

...... Maybe Cecil wasn't aware of this?

To why I rejected The Festival of the White Knot.

'I'm sorry, I didn't explain it well enough. Listen to me, Cecil.

Yes, sir.

''The 'reincarnation but master-servant contract' means that the master-servant contract will be in place when Cecil and I are reborn, right?

There's an otherworldly summoning, so there must be reincarnation.

That's fine, it's what world we'll be reincarnated in.

In this world, I'd be fine with ”master and slave from birth”.

But what if we are reincarnated in a world where there is no ”master-slave contract” like the world I was from?

There are two possible patterns.

(1) I lead Cecil around with his collar and he calls the police. I am arrested.

(2) Since there is no ”master-slave contract”, I and Cecile cannot meet each other.

Or one of us will never be born. Let's hope for the next incarnation.

The God of Contracts doesn't seem to be very flexible.

''That's why I thought the 'Future Master-Servant Contract' was a bad idea.

Nagi, this is very logical!

It's just that kind of personality.

I know what you think, Nagi-sama.

Yeah. So, what do you want to do?

.................. It's a tease, Nagi.

Cecil puffed out his cheeks and turned his head to the side.

'I belong to ...... Nagi-sama.

Cecil looked at me with his bright red eyes.

I put the crumpled blanket beside me and sit upright on the bed.

I speak out, one word at a time, broken up. I break it up into words.

I want to be with you forever, in whatever form that may be.

Thanks, Cecil.

It's embarrassing.

I'm not used to this kind of thing, you know.

But it's difficult, Nagi-sama. I don't know the Demon Race's 'soul engagement' ceremony. There's no choice but to look for the Demon Race's records. Even if I can find it, it should be quite a complicated ceremony.

'A ritual that brings two people together as one living being.

'Yes. 'It's all about uniting breath and magic. All the rituals are meant to bring the two of you closer together. Each tribe has its own lore. Taking a bath together, sleeping hand in hand, spending half a month in a temple alone with no one to see - it's very difficult to be 'one'. Then we 'connect' with each other and say the vows afterwards.

'Yeah. So, I've got a few things I want to try.

I need to get Cecil back on his feet as soon as possible, so I'll let you cheat.

I have the skills to do that.

It's how we've made the connection so many times before.

”This is good.

I picked up Cecil.

”Light.

”Nah, nagihima?

I'm going to do something for Cecil.

What the hell?

If you're having a hard time or feel like quitting, just tell me.

I'm not going to be so overwhelmed, though.

I sat down on the bed with Cecil in my arms. Then I sit Cecil down in front of me.

'...... is, yes. Go ahead. Nagi-sama.

''The 'soul engagement' rituals are meant to be a way for the two of you to connect on a deeper level, right?

'Ha, yes. That's why it's so difficult.

Okay. Okay, let's do it your way.

lightly

I put my hand on Cecil's left breast from behind.

A slippery sensation.

This is indeed the villa of the Ilgafa lord. I'm sure you'll be able to find it.

It's thin and soft, and it's ...... a great way to get a good look at Cecil's shape.

I'm not going to be able to get to the bottom of it. This is a therapeutic act.

Okay.

''The purpose of the 'soul promise' is to make Cecil a great healer. Me and Cecil's magic will slowly circulate and become one.

'Yes!　Please do so, Nagi.

Cecil looked back over his shoulder and looked at me.

''I will do anything to become one with you, Nagi-sama!

''Okay. Then activate ”Ability Rebuild, Skill Structure, Lv 3.

I activated the skill.

I invoke Cecil's skill in the window that appears in front of me.

Then I lightly touch the letters with my fingertips.

'Connecting deeply' is something I've done many times before. 'Ability Rebuild' is a cheat skill that allows you to do that. I'm going to see if I can't make a soul commitment with this.

But I'm not going to push it too hard. I won't move the skill.

Cecil has a fever, so I don't want to put too much pressure on him.

We just need to circulate our magic so that our souls will think that we are one.

'............ is haha.'

You okay, Cecil?

It's okay. It's a strange ...... that's different from the usual. ......

Cecil leaned against me and sighed gently.

The fever is still there. My heart is beating fast. But her breathing is calming down.

Slowly, I pour the magic power into Cecil.

As Cecil breathes in, I send magic power to him, and as he breathes out, I get magic from Cecil at the same time. I circulate the magic power so that Cecile and I become one.

Repeat. Timing.

Inhale, exhale. Flowing, inhaling.

Cecil's modest chest swells and dips.

Shape-shifting in my hands, pushing back.

I pour my magic power into Cecil, and receive Cecil's magic power.

It repeats. It goes in circulation.

Chapu, chapu, chapu, and we stir each other up.

Like a single living thing.

...... This is different from the usual.

Really?

It's like a different ...... feeling where Nagi-sama comes in.

Cecil chap, licked his lips and looked at me.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do that. I'll ...... wobble .......

Cecil's consciousness is clear.

But he looks like he's going to melt.

It's just like being in the bath ...... with Nagi-sama. Calm and happy ...... feelings.

I'm just circulating my magic, I guess.

That and because the level of 'ability rebuilding' has increased.

I'm able to adjust my magic power better.

Cecil is taking it easy and leaning against me. Her tiny body is snuggled up to me. The top of Cecil's head is under my chin. The top of Cecil's head is under my chin.

As I do this, it's as if the boundary between my body and Cecil's has disappeared.

I feel as if I can understand everything about him.

Where does he want me to touch him, and what does he want to become?

Cecil is relaxed with his hands hanging lazily down.

Sometimes I go, ”Huh,” and it's like an electric current went through me. And when I ask him if he's okay.

...... I feel like I'm going to be numb the whole time I'm touching Nagi.

Cecil murmured vaguely.

'Little by little, the fluffy is getting stronger ...... but it's soothing and ...... ah.'

Did I mention it's like soaking in a bath?

Then I'll let Cecil continue to 'just feel good'.

I touch the 'Ability Rebuild' window.

I continue the circulation of magic power.

Cecil seems to be okay, so I make it faster.

My body is getting hotter, little by little. On the contrary, Cecil's heat is receding.

My heartbeats are synchronizing, too.

Cecil's breathing is slow and steady. I match it with her.

I can feel that the two of them are connected.

”The demon race is a resounding race, isn't it?

I said.

'Yes. I am resonating with Nagi.
