I Don’t Want to Die in an Otome Game Chapter 2

That evening, I threw on a nightgown and endured a glance towards Calfan’s room.

To go to the room of your favorite man late at night, if it’s a game then it is a heart pounding situation that would make you say「It’s here!」. However, I can say that it is regrettably not the case now.

Still, I attentively scrubbed myself in the bath thinking this is the maiden’s duty.

Don Don (sound of knocking).
I knock quietly.
There is no answer.

「……Is he out, I wonder?」

It is terrible to make a promise then keep the woman waiting in the hallway.
I was pouting when suddenly a hand was placed on my shoulder.

「Hie! (sound of squealing/screaming)」

I raised a strange voice unintentionally.

「Sorry.」

The owner of the hand, Calfan, had hidden his presence and approached me.

「Mou, don’t surprise me!  ……Did you go out？」

「Aa (Yes)」

He is dressed in an outfit suited for combat with a sword on his waist. On such a night, was there anything going on?

「Just dealing with some things.」

He opened the door and lets me in. Sweat is dripping from his forehead and a scent came drifting coming from Calfan. Sweat, metal, skin, and also……pheromones?

Not good. Not good. I am an innocent maiden.
Do not be enticed by a man’s charm.
I slapped my red face and reorganized my feelings.

「Do I smell of sweat? Let me take a shower.」

「Please take your time.」

He took off his armor and sword and continued to take off his s.h.i.+rt.

「Kya (sound of surprise)」

「……I can’t take a shower if I don’t take it off.」

I was amazed that’s all he said.

「P-pl-please go ahead. This is your room.」

In addition to covering my face which had begun to burn, I also turned around.
Calfan smiled at me, but is he making fun of me?
Anyways, I am considered a child.
But you know, I glanced at the toned chest muscles and the clearly defined stomach just a little bit.
I stared at the crevices I wanted to trace with my fingers.

「Wait there.」

「Yes.」

I obediently sat down on a chair while listening to the sounds of the shower.

Because we are an affluent family, there are both shower and bath in the room. Although I’m just a mob character, it was good I was able to reincarnate into a good house.

The sounds of the water soon stopped and the door opened.

While drying his hair, Calfan entered the room. Naked!

「Kyaaaa! 」

This time, I gave an even bigger scream and covered my face with my palm.

I saw everything!

「Don’t make such a racket. Though this room has a barrier and the sound won’t leak, the people in the mansion might wake up.」

「Why did you come out naked!」

「That’s because the change of clothes is here?」

Eeh, eeh, you know!
If a man is naked, of course you’ll make a racket. From the start, it isn’t something you should see. I’m sorry I can’t just change my disposition.

I waited for Calfan to change while fidgeting.
Aa mou (sound of giving up), I can’t take this silence any longer.

「……Miss (ojou), are you sure you’re alright with this?」

Calfan had already put on his clothes and placed his hand on his chin.

「Even if it’s not alright, I have to do it!」

I glare at him with a red face.

「That kind of hurts.」

「Thank you for your concern. But, I can’t help but do my best. Therefore, please cooperate?」

「Was it bedroom manners?」

Calfan placed his hand on the chair for support. His reddish brown eyes looked at me and was glistening.
Uu, cool.
Why is he not a capture target, I wonder?

「First of all, you must set an appointment.」

「Appointment?」

「You must write a letter that you will visit the bedroom beforehand. While waiting for the OK, the other side will surely prepare so that it will be easy to enter the room. Although, rejection is highly unlikely.」

「Uhm, ‘I yearn for you’ or ‘a one night rendezvous’, should I write things like that? 」

「Aa, such a thing would be good. Usually the man crawls into the bedroom at night through the window. Though in the case of the young miss, you’ll probably come from the entrance?」

「2nd floor windows are impossible for me.」

「That’s true. A gentleman will probably be considerate and send for the partner. 」

「Truly? Thank you. I’ll be saved if that is the case.」

「Afterwards, leave it to the man.」

「Yes.」

So then, it’ll be safe to enter the room. What, sneaking around doesn’t seem so hard.

「No, in Miss’ (ojou) case, what happens afterwards might be a problem.」

「Why?」

「If you scream after just seeing my body, I don’t think you’ll have peaceful relations……」

「Ah……」

「Also for the first time, the other person might not be in love either? It will feel good for the man, but what about the woman?」

T-that’s right! That is a problem!
In my case, if I say the wrong thing, it might become rape instead of a mutual consent.
Scary. Very scary.
The touch will not feel pleasant.
That means, it’ll end up with putting the thing in the important place by force without any wetness?
Then that means the first time will be very painful?

「What to do……Is it not alright?……」

I’m somewhat cold with anxiety. My body is shaking.

I wrapped my arms around myself while trembling when my back was filled with warmth.
A blanket was now covering me and Calfan was even hugging me.

「I’m sorry I scared you. Don’t be frightened. Surely there will be a way if we think together.」

「Calfan……」

With the strength and the warmth of his arms, the trembling of my body finally stopped.

「Just sleep tonight. We’ll continue tomorrow.」

「……Yes.」

I looked at his face which was scrunched up with concern and nodded.
I sat there motionlessly as Calfan continued to stare at me intensely. His face drew near.

His lips touched mine lightly.
My eyes grew wide in surprise but he just smiled and said:

「The request fee has certainly been received.」

「Kyaaaan, embarra.s.sing!」

Returning to my room, I was having a shame festival on the bed.

「I ki-kissed Calfan!  Or rather shared a kiss with Calfan! What should I do? I’m so happy!」

I wrapped myself in a blanket and rolled around in agony.

「Too cool!　The body is already good but the face is good too!　It’s even better up close, iyan!」

The scene keeps playing several times in my head with a s.h.i.+ning filter. An otome game still photo pales in comparison to an animation.

Calfan’s lips were manly, thick, and supple and seemed to cover mine completely for a moment. Soft and warm……and the body was held strongly by the arms……。

「Haiii、It’s no good. I shouldn’t remember it or I’ll get a nosebleed!　The blood vessel will break!」

Enough, I don’t have immunity anymore!
I hugged my pillow while panting excitedly.
And that smile after that devastating kiss?
If a maiden sees that, there’s no doubt that she will faint. What’s with that Kuudere character? He usually doesn’t have such a sweet glance!

「Otome games are awesome!」

I finally fell asleep after tossing around a lot while grinning loosely.

AN: I’m sorry the chapter is short. I wrote it bit by bit.
