The 14th Day of the Tree month. In this world, Valentine’s Day is also widely spread.
On that Valentine’s Day, I was visiting Isis-san’s castle in the Land of Death.
As expected, when I’m called on this day, I can already imagine what is about to happen, and to be honest, I’m a bit excited about it.
[……Welcome…… Kaito…… I’m sorry…… to call you here.]
[No, I’m sorry to intrude.]Greeting Isis-san who welcomed me with a gentle smile, I entered her castle.
I’m not sure if it’s because I’m aware of the fact that it’s Valentine’s Day, but I’m feeling strangely nervous.
Thereupon, Isis-san led me to her room…… No, well, this castle is Isis-san’s home, so all the rooms here are hers, but what I’m saying is that Isis-san led me to the room that she often uses.
Inside, a bookcase lined with only her favorite books and several ornaments…… and on top of a desk, the music box I gave her is carefully displayed.
Upon entering the room, Isis-san uses Spatial Magic and takes out a lovely wrapped package and timidly holds it out to me.
[……Valentine’s Day…… For my beloved Kaito…… with all my heart…… I made this.]
[Thank you. Isis-san, I’m really happy.][……Ahh…… unnn.]
Isis-san looked anxious when she gave me her chocolate, probably about whether I would accept it or not, but I felt a warmth in my chest when I received it.
Of course, even if the heavens and earth are turned upside down, it would be impossible for me to not accept the chocolates made by Isis-san…… I don’t know if it was because of Valentine’s ambiance or not, but the way Isis-san nervously gave me the chocolate is so cute that it’s foul play.
It’s been a while since we’ve been together, but it seems like Isis-san’s cuteness is still rising, and how should I say this, her cuteness is outrageously high now.
Especially when I received her chocolate, seeing her relieved and happy smile, I couldn’t help but feel charmed.
There’s also this chocolate, which personally gains her an extraordinary amount of points.
The wrapping isn’t perfect, but that’s why I could really feel that it’s handmade…… Thinking that Isis-san worked so hard to make this for me, I felt impossibly happy.
[……Isis-san, can I open it already?]
[……Unnn.]
[Well then, if you’ll excuse me……]
After saying a few words of thanks to Isis-san, I carefully opened the package so as to not tear the wrapping paper, and opening the small box…… Inside were six chocolate hearts with different colors.
There was a regular chocolate, white chocolate, strawberry chocolate, marble chocolate…… and this orange-colored one, I w this orange or mango chocolate? And the last one is……
[……A blue chocolate?]
[……U- Unnn…… It’s chocolate…… made with a fruit…… called Planet Fruit.]
[Heehhh…… Such a fruit exists huh.]
[……Unnn…… It had my favorite color after all so…… is it…… weird?]
The last one is a strong, bright blue…… cobalt blue chocolate, a color I didn’t see very often in the world I was in, but it seems to be fruit-infused chocolate, just like strawberry chocolates.
I’ve heard that blue is a color that decreases one’s appetite…… but I felt glad that Isis-san has mixed her most favorite color with the chocolates she’s giving me, and I feel like I can’t wait to eat them instead.
[……I love the color blue too.]
[……Is…… that so?]
[Yes. Because, you see…… It’s kind of like Isis-san’s color.]
[……Kaito…… hauuu…… I feel happy.]
Isis-san’s hair was white and her eyes red…… If that were the only reason, I wouldn’t have thought of her when I think of blue, but since she floats around in a pale blue light and likes to wear blue-colored clothing, seeing Isis-san makes me think about the color blue.
That’s why, I also, how should I say this? I guess it’s because it’s the color that makes me think of my beloved lover or something like that? Anyway, that’s why I like the color blue.
Healed with Isis-san’s happy smile, I started with the blue chocolate.
It’s a little sour, but it isn’t as overpowering as passion fruit. The texture of the chocolate cream inside flows well in the tongue, and I could feel a refreshing aftertaste.
[……It’s very delicious. Isis-san is also very good at making confectioneries huh.]
[……I wanted to…… give Kaito……. delicious chocolates…… to eat…… So I practiced…… a lot.]
[…………………]
She really is, how should I say this? Should I say lovable? ……Anyway, she’s really cute.
I don’t know if she’s the type of person who will do everything if it’s for the one they love, but receiving her pure and warm unsparing amount of love, I couldn’t be happier than this.
Gently holding Isis-san’s hand, I gazed into her beautiful red eyes.
[Isis-san……]
[……Kaito.]
Calling each other’s names once, Isis gently closes her eyes.
As if she was accepting my everything, even that gesture looks endearing…… Seeing the whiteness of the outside peeking through the window as everything was dyed in snow, I embraced my beloved bundle of blue in front of me…… and we exchanged a kiss.
<Afterword>
As expected of the heroine’s powers, Serious-senpai has died.
If time allows it, I would write about his current girlfriends…… Sieg, Lilia and Alice after I get home from work.
