Alice’s renovated Trick House is, after all, a place that reflects her desires.
[……W- Why are you asking this from me?]
[Kuro is being mindful, isn’t she? In other words, this thing would be filled with stuff Alice wants to do.]
[Don’t get me wrong! Certainly, some of…… a few of…… just a really bit of my desires had influenced my revision, but the base was still that one made by Shallow Vernal-sama. I just changed it a little bit.]
[Fumu. Well, I can just see for myself when we get there then……]Kuro and Alice would take turns going to the Trick House with me, and the one going in first would be Alice. By the way, this was Kuro’s suggestion, so there’s no doubt that Kuro was being mindful about it after hearing the circumstances.
Also, I’m a bit concerned with Alice’s statement earlier. The fact that she said the base was still that one created by Shiro-san, I suppose that means, while reflecting her desires to some extent, she also made some changes to…… Unnn?
[……Arehh? If this wasn’t just my imagination, wasn’t it you who came up with the tasks in that Trick House?]
[………………….]
[Shiro-san back then was obviously having fun, looking like she had no idea what the contents of the Trick House were, you know?]
[……W- Well, that certainly was the case…… I made it with Kaito-san and Shallow Vernal-sama in mind, and even though that’s something I had a hand in, I made it with that kind of idea in mind…… but the situation here is different from that time……]
She just nonchalantly said she made it as a joke at that time, but in a sense, the whole joke went right back at her.Thinking back to what happened back when I went here with Shiro-san, there were a lot of over-the-top couple-like events. It was very typical of Alice, if you think about it.
As I had such thoughts in mind, I arrived at the first room and found the big sign in front of the door with the task written in large letters.
“It will open if the boyfriend holds the girlfriend in a princess carry. The princess carry must continue until the couple reaches the next room.”
Fumu, I remember this one. When I went with Shiro-san though, this should be the second room, right? She changed the ordering and this is now the first room huh…… I see, so it’s that pattern where the contents are the same but the order has been changed.
[……I see.]
[W- What now!? What’s with that pleasant smile on your face again!!!? Why the heck does your face scream “Ahh, this guy wants a princess carry”!? ……Yeah, that’s right!? I’ve been wanting to do this since back then! Is that bad!!!?]
Perhaps because she was embarrassed, Alice’s face turned bright red, acting like an offender who got angry at the victim. She looked so cute that I couldn’t help laughing at her though.
By the way, even though I hadn’t heard about this, it was a refreshing self-destruction for her to reveal something that she wanted to do for a long time.
[It’s not bad, but if you had told me this earlier, I would have done it for you anytime.]
[Please don’t underestimate me. How sh*tty do you think I am with love-related stuff!?]
[No, like I said, I don’t think that’s the kind of thing you should declare with confidence…… Well, whatever. Well then, I’ll hold you in a princess carry now.]
[B- Bring it on.]
While smiling wryly at Alice who was really bracing herself to the fullest, I held Alice in a princess carry. With her petite build, she was very light and fairly easy to lift.
Meanwhile, Alice is clearly looking bashful, as she doesn’t look this way with her face averted.
[……Fufu.]
[W- Why are you laughing over there…… Eh? Is there something strange about me?]
[No, it’s just that you look so stiff that it’s kinda funny…… How does it feel to be carried in one’s arms, o Princess?]
[……M- Mngh…… No, well…… I feel happy but……]
Alice, who claimed to be sh*tty when it comes to love-related matters, has a bright red blush on her face all this time, but for the time being, it seems like she’s happy.
As I felt a smile rising from my lips again, we proceeded through the open door and started walking toward the next room. But well, the fact that Alice had revised this place should mean that extreme tasks have been eliminated.
Rather than me though, it doesn’t look like Alice would be able to bear with them, so I wonder what kind of tasks will be after this? Alice is quite the romanticist and has a yearning for over-the-top scenarios, so it’s likely to be something couple-like……
In the second room we arrived at, there was a table in front of the door and two chairs facing each other…… and there was something that looked like a Random Box on the table.
“Finish eating the parfait inside. However, alternately feed each other.”
I see, in other words, it’s a staple for couples’ alternately feeding each other. I’ve certainly done this with Alice before, but not with parfaits.
It’s true that this is a staple situation, so she may have been longing for this.
[……Hmmm, I see.]
[……Seriously, the heck is with this shame play.]
And just like usual, perhaps because she was unable to hold back her embarrassment, Alice covered her face with both hands.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [S- Stop…… I’m turning…… into sugar……]
Makina : [Oh my, right on time. You would need sugar for the warishita for the sukiyaki after all.]
Serious-senpai : [Eh? You’re still gathering for the ingredients?]
