Let ask you: when a petite, lovely, sweet, and cute little loli looks at you with teary eyes, weakly seeking your help, can you refuse her?
—You cannot refuse.
To tell the truth, Natsumi didn't even process what Yoshino said clearly. But at this mont, besides those three words, no other vocabulary could appear in her mind.
"Um, then let us go, Yoshino—"
"Mhm, mhm..."
After stuttering to inform Yoshino, Natsumi unzipped the tent door.
"Ah... It is so dark."
The mont she stepped out of the tent, Natsumi couldn't help but sigh.
Perhaps because the campfire was extinguished, or perhaps because everyone had fallen asleep. Even though it was still night, the atmosphere of the campsite now was completely different from when they were eating dinner a few hours ago.
Whether it was the lawn, the forest, the lake, or Mount Fuji in the distance, everything was shrouded in a gloomy black curtain. One could only faintly see blurry outlines through the dim moonlight.
The surroundings were incredibly quiet. Although not completely soundless, the occasional rustling of the wind and grass made it even more chilling.
In an instant, Natsumi seed to understand why Yoshino was too scared to go to the bathroom alone.
"Um... The bathroom is at..."
Quietly swallowing, Natsumi muttered while looking around.
"Um... over there..."
Yoshino pointed trembling at the forest. Natsumi then rembered that the public bathroom for this campsite was located on the other side of the forest.
"Ah, this is much harder than going to the bathroom at the end of the hallway."
The corner of Natsumi's mouth twitched slightly, speaking sowhat blankly.
"Well, that's how it is. Although I, Yoshinon, am temporarily staying by Yoshino-chan's side, we still want to find soone else to accompany us. So we're counting on you—Natsumi-chan."
"Ah, ah..."
Hearing Yoshinon's words, Natsumi suddenly felt a heavy responsibility.
"I-Is it okay... There are no monsters, right..."
Yoshino asked fearfully.
"It is fine, monsters and stuff... are just nonsense Kaguya made up... Probably... Maybe... Probably..."
Despite saying that, looking at the bottomless, gloomy forest ahead that seed like it could swallow soone whole, Natsumi's voice grew weaker and weaker.
Humans always hold an unknown fear of the dark.
And right now, the excitent of being relied on by Yoshino gradually faded as the adrenaline and dopamine in her body decreased. It was replaced by a feeling like a bucket of cold water poured over her head, her limbs feeling sluggish and cold.
(Wait... What if so monster really appears? What should I do? A gloomy, cowardly piece of trash like , let alone protecting Yoshino, wouldn't I be the first character to die in the horror story? Even if I acted as a decoy, this small body would probably be eaten clean in no ti. I wouldn't even be able to buy ti...)
Thinking of this, Natsumi couldn't help but shiver all over. Perhaps due to fear and pressure, suddenly, an urge surged from Natsumi's lower abdon.
(Ah... This is bad...)
"Natsumi-chan?"
"...Natsumi-san...?"
Looking at Natsumi, who suddenly clamped her legs tightly together, Yoshino and Yoshinon tilted their heads in confusion.
————————————
Let ask you: when two petite, lovely, sweet, and cute little loli look at you—one with teary eyed grievance and the other with a flushed face holding back—seeking your help, can you refuse them?
-No! You cannot!-
Based on the above, the awakened Yutsuki very readily agreed to their request.
"Are, are we there yet...Yutsuki-san..."
Looking around fearfully, Yoshino asked anxiously.
"Ah, we will be there in a bit. Hang in there, Yoshino."
Although it hadn't even been a minute since they left the campsite, Yutsuki still answered like this.
"Seriously, why put the bathroom in such a far place? Did they not consider the safety and convenience of the guests? Cutting corners on materials should have a limit. Kaguya too, nothing better to do than tell ghost stories, none of it is real, it's all garbage. Ah, it's clearly because I am too useless, blaming others for my faults. People like should just quickly..."
anwhile, Natsumi had entered a state of negative, pessimistic ntal breakdown. Like Yoshino, she was holding onto Yutsuki's right hand, muttering and complaining with her head down.
"N-No such thing,Natsumi-san... Cheer up."
"Ah... Thank you, Yoshino... for going out of your way to comfort useless ..."
Looking at the unbearable Natsumi, Yutsuki gave a bitter smile. Shining the flashlight around, she sighed softly.
"Well, there is no need to bla yourself. After all, it is so gloomy, anyone would be scared."
"Oh? Is Yutsuki-chan also scared?"
Yoshinon asked in surprise.
"Of course. If I were alone, I definitely wouldn't walk this far to go to the bathroom. What if I run into a ghost?"
Yutsuki shrugged and said as a matter of course.
Hearing this, Natsumi reacted a bit.
"...That is surprising. I thought you would definitely not be afraid of ghosts. You would be the type to say these are all unscientific superstitions."
"Well, our existence as Spirits is already beyond common sense in the eyes of ordinary people. I can't really say there are no other supernatural phenona in this world besides us."
"Ugh... True."
Natsumi nodded, unable to deny it.
"But, I can guarantee you that Kaguya's story was absolutely made up by her. This place is a property owned by Ratatoskr. Do you think I would choose a place where supernatural events have occurred for camping?"
Hearing Yutsuki's words, Yoshino and Natsumi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"...However, I think Natsumi's choice wasn't wrong either." After a slight pause, Yutsuki said gently, "Sotis, facing difficulties and forging ahead bravely is a kind of courage. But acting tough without considering the danger and consequences is just recklessness. Being able to clearly distinguish this point is already very amazing."
"...Well, I was never the type to care about saving face anyway. There is nothing worth praising."
Natsumi looked away a bit shyly.
(So amazing...Yutsuki-san.)
Noticing that Natsumi had cheered up without realizing it, Yoshino secretly marveled.
She didn't comfort the other party directly. Instead, she first resonated with her through conversation, then validated her thoughts and actions, encouraged and cheered her on, guiding her to cheer up little by little.
(I also want to... beco soone like that...)
Yoshino thought silently in her heart, and Yoshinon seed to notice her thoughts as well. The rabbit puppet quietly bent its arm, striking a cute muscle pose to encourage her.
"Mhm, we are here."
Following Yutsuki's voice stopping, Yoshino looked up. Unknowingly, the three had crossed the forest and arrived at their destination.
"Go on, I will wait for you at the door."
"Mhm... Okay."
Yoshino nodded and walked into the bathroom together with Natsumi.
"Phew..."
Turning her back to the won's restroom door, Yutsuki looked up at the moonlit sky and let out a long breath.
Relying on a Spirit's five senses that surpassed ordinary people, she soon heard the sound of fabric sliding across skin, as soft and smooth as silk.
(Taking off their panties, huh...)(TL:hehe)
"Y-Yutsuki-san... are you still there?"
"Don't worry, I am here."
Yutsuki said with a straight face.
Imdiately after, there was a sound of trickling water, as pleasant as a clear stream flowing through the mountains, echoing in Yutsuki's ears.
"Yu-Yutsuki! Are you still outside? Answer ."
"Mhm... I am here."
It was unknown how long passed before the lody ended. The sound of slightly rough toilet paper, unlike soft fabric, wiping skin gave people endless room for imagination, making Yutsuki involuntarily close her eyes to savor it.(TL:savor is crazyyy)
"Yutsuki-chan?"
"Ah~ I am here."
Hearing the final flushing sound marking the end of the task, Yutsuki opened her eyes, showing a calm and satisfied smile.
I win.
