I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 1793: Rest for the Hard Worker

Chapter 1793: Rest for the Hard Worker ②

Hearing “seaside cottage” would make one think of a tropical country. Other than such countries, I have also heard that there are resorts like that in Indonesia, where there are many islands.

Well, putting that aside, Hydra Kingdom has a warm climate throughout the year, even compared to the other places in the Human Realm, so it’s a very suitable environment for a seaside resort.

In fact, there are many sea-related sightseeing spots around here, such as the beach I went to with my lovers and this seaside cottage Anima and I are going to this time.

When we arrived at our destination by Teleportation Magic, just as I had imagined it to be, I found a wooden cottage built on top of the seawater, near the beach.

The sea is beautiful, and I did hear that the area around this is a private beach…… so it’s probably quite vast. As to be expected from a resort targeting the affluent, it has quite grand of a scale.

[Everything around this area is the private beach, right?]

[Probably…… I could feel Barrier Magic in place in the distance, so the range should be up to that spot, isn’t it?]

[……I see.]

Anima says it as if it’s obvious, but I couldn’t really tell because I can’t detect that Barrier Magic she was talking about. No, I could technically detect them, but my detection range is limited, so when it comes to that Barrier Magic Anima is talking about, I wouldn’t know about it since it’s beyond my range.

If it’s about the position of someone who exudes their magic power…… My detection range would be a little wider thanks to my Sympathy Magic…… but well, even still, it’s safe to say that my detection range is still narrower than someone actually skilled.

[Well then, Anima, let’s go inside right away.]

[Yes! Leave taking care of Master’s personal needs to me!!!]

Saying that, Anima clenched her fists and appealed with determination, as if she had forgotten the original purpose of us coming here…… Ahh, no, I certainly hadn’t mentioned the specific reason why we went here huh. In that case, from Anima’s perspective, being away from work at the moment makes her consider herself as taking a break already.

[For the time being, why don’t we start with a nap?]

[Does that mean you’re going to take a nap first?]

[No. I don’t mean me, I’m talking about Anima.]

[Eh? M- Me!? I’m all filled with energy though……]

[Was the one saying that…… the girl I heard who hasn’t slept for a few days?]

[Ahh……. T- T- T- That is…… Yes.]

When I asked her that with a smile, Anima’s expression seemed to say “Shoot, that’s right!”, and she averted her gaze. It seems that due to feeling excited about our date, she even forgot that she hadn’t taken a break.

That’s exactly what I had been worrying about. Seriously…… Well, let’s just give Anima a good rest first. That said, I don’t think she will sleep well even if I tell her to go to the bedroom to rest by herself, so I have a plan for that as well.

When I entered the cottage, I was greeted by a s.p.a.cious living room with a large sofa, so there seemed to be no problem in carrying out what I had in mind.

[Well then, Anima, I was planning on having you take a nap…… but I’m worried about what you’ll do if I take my eyes off you, so I’ll have you sleep on the couch instead. Are you fine with that?]

[Hah! There’s no problem with it. I wouldn’t even mind sleeping on the floor……]

[……Alright then, I guess I’ll position myself here.]

[……Umm, Master? Why are you sitting on the sofa? Ah, no, it’s perfectly fine for Master to sit down…… but why are you sitting over there?]

Seeing me sitting on the edge of the sofa, Anima curiously tilts her head. Chuckling at her reaction, I lightly patted my lap and spoke.

[Unnn. I was thinking of having Anima sleep in my lap.]

[…………Huh? Ah, eh? I- It won’t be Master sleeping on my lap…… but me sleeping on Master’s lap?]

[That’s right. Ahh, if you don’t like it, I won’t force you to……]

[N- No! It’s not that I don’t like it, I’m rather happy about it…… Ahh, but umm, isn’t this a bit too disrespectful for me?]

[No, that’s not the case at all. Rather, I’m the one who’s suggesting this to you.]

I don’t know how comfortable sleeping on my lap is, but Fate-san, who often lays herself on my lap, said it’s comfortable, so I think it shouldn’t be a problem.

This should be a good strategy to make sure Anima is sleeping well and to do something lover-like with her.

Well, it seems she’s receiving it more favorably than I thought. I thought she would be more stubborn and reserved, but although she looked puzzled, she was glancing at my thighs with her ears twitching up and down, so I got the feeling she was trying to suppress her joy.

[And so, come on, Anima…… Come here.]

[Y- Yes…… U- Umm, if you’ll excuse me.]

When I beckoned her close with a smile, Anima nodded with a blush on her cheeks. Taking off her hat and cloak and placing them on the table, with a slightly nervous expression, she rested her head on my thighs.

[M- Master!? Am I not heavy?]

[Don’t worry, you aren’t heavy at all. How about you, Anima? Would you be able to properly sleep like that?]

[Ahh, umm…… I feel so happy that my head feels like it’s gonna go crazy…… but umm…… being like this feels so relieving…… that yes…… I feel like I can sleep without any problems.]

[I see, that’s good. Then, let’s get some rest right away…… Good night, Anima.]

[……Good night. Master.]

When I lightly stroked Anima’s head as she laid her head on my lap, her eyes narrowed and she looked comfortable. Thereupon, following my words, she closed her eyes.

Seems like fatigue had acc.u.mulated in her one way or another, as after a while, I could hear the sound of her soft breathing.

Serious-senpai : [Guahh, d- d*mn it…… Kaito is quite aggressive when it comes to Anima, so the atmosphere feels different than usual……]

? ? ? : [He’s quite strong when it comes to dealing with m…… Alice-chan and Anima-san after all……]

Serious-senpai : [Nah, isn’t it more like Alice is too much of a sh*tty noob…… Heck, she even describes herself like that……]
