CH 226

While admiring the clear and serene lake, Sword drank some liquor while I played my lute.

A 【Moonlight】 solo. That’s a staple of classic guitar play, isn’t it? Afterwards I went with 【Recuerdos de la Alhambra】. 1

To be honest, I wouldn’t be able to play this beautifully if not for my current body, I think.

Sword listened with his eyes closed while nipping on his booze.

Okay, but won’t you be unable to watch the precious scenery if you keep your eyes closed? I wanted to enjoy the scenery together with you, you know!? …or so I thought, but since I guessed that he was probably reminiscing about his past lover, I played the song without saying anything.

…Since he’d become quite sentimental, he must have loved her quite a bit and she must have left him behind all of sudden due to some complicated, sticky circumstances. If she had silently left, Sword would have probably searched for her, and with his abilities, it’d be impossible for him to not find her.

…Hmm, is that why the limpness and his distrust of women?

My current self never fell in love, and since I’m not one to grow fond of others easily, unlike my otherworld self, I don’t understand the feeling of liking a man to the extent of wanting to have sex with them, but if I look at Sword’s state of having become so emotional that you could call it an obsession, it only makes me want to refrain from it more and more.

It’s great that there’s no romantic relationship between Sword and me.

I think……I might possibly be asexual. It’s not that I confirmed it, but I don’t feel like either gender applies to me. No, it’s pretty clear that I’m no man, of course.

That’s why I’ve decided to call myself a 【Woman】 for the time being, but I still haven’t had my first menstruation, and my chest has no protuberances whatsoever. Rather, it feels like 『Plok☆』 upon touch.

Naturally, I considered it weird at this age as well, but since I didn’t particularly minded, I ignored it up until now.

――Well, I don’t really care whether I’m a woman, man, or asexual anyway!

Just like I don’t feel like having sex with anyone, I don’t intend to become a couple with someone. Given that people have been mistaking me as a boy and since Sword teased me about it as well, I’ve insisted on being a woman while using myself as a joke, but it doesn’t trouble me to be mistaken in the least.

After all, I possess legs so beautiful that I can enchant anyone!

Sword mentioned that he wants to spend the rest of his life together with me, but, if he meets some nice woman, I’m going to entrust him to her, and spend my life on some floating island without dragons while having the Ryokus and other golems serve me. And I think I’ll search for a spell to make a soul sleep for eternity so that I won’t ever be reincarnated.



As I pondered about such things while playing my lute, Sword had opened his eyes at some point, staring at me.

“…One day, if you grow tired of adventurin’ and say that you wanna retire, your gonna live with me, right?”

……

Why can he read my mind?

“…As long as you don’t meet a woman who can rock your boat, that is. If you do, I’ll let her have you.”

“What the hell’s up with that?”

He hugged me, that drunkard.

“…What would you do if you ran into the guy from your previous life?”

That question again?

“No matter which guy from my previous life it might be, all of them had dated my otherworld self, no? My current self is completely untouched. I never dated anyone and I’m a maiden!”

“……Yeah, right. ……Mmh, maiden, eh?”

Gaaaaaaaaah!

“What’s with that ambiguous way of leaving things unsaid!?!”

Once I shook him, he surrendered.

“Gotcha. Your right. Your a maiden, I s’pose. Yep, unlike me your unused.”

“It’s still intact! If you don’t believe me, then check it yourself!”

“No, sorry. I’ll refrain. I don’t wanna see it.

The fuck!? He doesn’t want to see the secret place of a virgin!?

That made me feel like wanting to show it to him even more, but then he caressed my head so as to soothe me.

“‘kay, your a maiden. And, I’m slightly used, but well, I’m always as good as new.”

“You were broken quickly during use and your current uselessness’s…ouch, ouch, oooouuch!!”

My temples were ground.

“That’s why you can feel safe with me, right? You don’t need to worry about me attacking your chastity. …Well, I doubt any guy would attack you ‘nyway and even if they did, you’d turn the tables on ’em… I can protect your chastity.”

…Well, at present, where I’m being mistaken for a guy, I think it’d be smarter to worry about my butt, but I think a man capable of attacking me one way or the other doesn’t exist anyway.

“Hrmm. …But Sword, you might have slightly bad luck with women, but isn’t that also because you tend to give up quickly? Wouldn’t it be good if you could become a bit more open-minded and easygoing towards women, in case you happened upon a woman you love?”

“……Since I don’t feel like wanting to get along with women to such an extent, that remains impossible.”

Uuhh, I see. That’s a clear sign of him being broken. Just what you’d expected from a limp-dick.
