Going back to Asagao’s POV
“Huh?!”
Is what the king can only utter at that moment while mechanically turning his head towards my direction.
“S-s-s-soldier! T-t-the only wa-wa-way to know that is by l-l-looking at “there” you know?!”
“Y-y-y-your Majesty!! I am sorry! I-i-it was an accident!! I w-w-will kill m-m-myself right now!”
“D-don’t be hasty!”
Their voices are shaking. It’s an amusing sight, but I will reach my limit soon so urge the king who is carrying me by calling out to him and tug his clothes.
“Pee…”
The look on the soldier is horrible, after that, he looks like he gained enlightenment. He then spoke words that will make the king cry in despair.
He saluted with all his might.
“Your Majesty! Because of you, our land prospered, the lives of the people were enriched greatly. Even I once lived in poverty, but since you have taken over the throne, I was given the opportunity to work here and able to feed my family! So, Your Majesty! My loyalty is truly yours whatever happens!”
He said it in one breath. This fellow loyalty is real. The king is, you know, really pale right now. Even paler than before. The soldier bowed and walks away.
“…”
Ah. I was expecting him to say the cliché line “IT’S A MISUNDERSTANDING” but he gave up. As the urge came again, I tugged his clothes again saying “Pee”.
He faced towards me and smiled.
“Let’s go little Asagao! Tonight is really cold so we should hurry!”
Eh...
He is pretending that nothing happened?
He then continued walking down the hallway.
We reached the toilet.
When I open it, I can see a standard ceramic toilet bowl with a lid.
It is suspiciously same in our world but has some weird blue stone installed to the side.
“That blue stone is used to flush. Now that I think about it. All of your rooms have their own toilet you know?”
EH?!
It has one?!
AHHHHH?!
Don’t look at me like that!
Why are you smiling at me?!
I feel like my head will burst!
I slam the door of the toilet because of embarrassment. Come to think of it! This is a castle of royalties!
Why wouldn’t they have a toilet installed in each room?!
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
I am used living in the orphanage which there are no such thing as toilets in our own rooms!
“Asagao, I am going to be here outside so just take your time”
That’s reassuring, though. He’s being considerate right now.
Umu…
It won’t come out now. Is this also a difficulty of a little girl’s body?
The children at the orphanage sung when they have difficulty peeing. If I remember correctly it goes like this…
“One little rabbit hopped!~
Two little rabbits hopped hopped!~
Three little rabbits hopped hopped hopped!~
Four little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
Five little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
Six little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
.
.
.
I peed at the 12th rabbit hopped hopped hopped!~
I tried touching the blue stone.
I think this is what they call a magic stone. It is imbued with water element. It glowed at contact and water came rushing in the toilet flushing it.
I also fetch some water in the sink to sanitize myself such as my hand and down there.
After that, I got out and he was still standing there.
He stared at me really flustered.
I wonder what is going on?
Then he approached me to reach out for my waist. Is he going to carry me again?
Although I am fine and I can walk myself now. I told him off.
“Walk…I will walk by herself.”
He stopped at his track and looked down sadly. I grabbed his hand to comfort him. I urged him to walk while holding hands. His hand is big and rough. It was not pleasant, though. He smiled at the gesture and started walking with me.
After that, no more event happened. He escorted me to my room. He personally tucked me in and bid good night to me. I slip to dreamland again.
Ashfon POV
“S-s-s-soldier! T-t-the only wa-wa-way to know that is by l-l-looking at “there” you know?!”
“Y-y-y-your Majesty!! I am sorry! I-i-it was an accident!! I w-w-will kill m-m-myself right now!”
“D-don’t be hasty!”
This is really alarming!
I faced the little girl with great unease.
Asagao, why are you going full commando?!
She seems to think that it is fine to go around wearing nothing but this oversized shirt.
My clothes are suddenly tugged by the girl being carried in my arms.
“Pee…”
Ah yes!
You need to pee right now, but for some reason, it sounded really dangerous. Saying she need to pee, being caught carrying her in my arms, no underwear.
It sounds suspicious and really indecent. The soldier suddenly said in one breath.
“Your Majesty! Because of you, our land prospered, the lives of the people were enriched greatly. Even I once lived in poverty, but since you have taken over the throne, I was given the opportunity to work here and able to feed my family! So Your Majesty! My loyalty is truly yours whatever happens!”
“…”
I don’t want to answer. I can’t answer. I threw my imaginary hands up high to claim guilty. I want to shout “IT’S A MISUNDERSTANDING” but I gave up.
I don’t want to disturb people now. Asagao tugged my clothes again saying “Pee” I smiled to her.
“Let’s go little Asagao! Tonight is really cold so we should hurry!”
The night is cold but wonderful!~
Carrying an adorable girl too is a blessing.
Yup!
Nothing happened.
We arrived the toilet. Asagao opened the door of the toilet room.
She seems to have taken interest on the Water Rune. So I explain to her its use.
“That blue stone is used to flush. Now that I think about it. All of your rooms have their own toilet you know?”
I added about the matter of each of the rooms here have their own toilet and bath. We use this toilet for public use and guests.
We also have a huge bath for public use or for those people who wants to take bath together.
Of course, we regulate the decency of the castle.
When I said that, she seems shaken. She unconsciously blabbered “awawawawa” while blushing fiercely.
It is adorable.
Upon knowing about the existence of toilet in their own rooms, she became so embarrassed that she slam closed the door.
Then I reassured her so she won’t feel lonely.
“Asagao, I am going to be here outside so just take your time”
After a while, I heard something
“One little rabbit hopped!~
Two little rabbit hopped hopped!~
Three little rabbits hopped hopped hopped!~
Four little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
Five little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
Six little rabbits hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped hopped!~
.
.
.
She stops at the 12th rabbit.
How should I say this…no good, too cute!
I wonder what would Ishtal and Violetta-san will say if I said I wanted to adopt her as my little sister.
I mean, let’s take advantage of her having the same features as me. Even the last name could slip smoothly because it is not even a lie that she is a Lionheart too.
I threw away every negative thought about her and started thinking something like adopting.
She exits the toilet and walks toward me. I tried to reach out to her waist again to carry her but she told me off.
“Walk…I will walk by herself.”
I thought that she got creep out by me so she rejects it. Then she holds my hand and pulls me like she is urging for me to walk.
Her hand is so tiny and smooth. I hope my rough hand won’t hurt her. Fortunately, nothing happened anymore.
I escorted her to her room and tucked her in myself. I have the urge to stay for a while savoring the sensation of her hair, the fragrance that she gave off.
But I need to go and rest in my own room.
Just to be clear. I don’t have any indecent thoughts about her.
Not lust, not sexual desire. I am not like that.
Tonight events will be forever be burnt in my memories.
…Violetta-san. I can feel your magic flowing into the whole castle you know?! Please stop that.
Staying late at night patrolling using magic, the soldier at duty may lose their job you know?
