Tearju gathered her courage!
Tearju was about to make her move!
Tearju bravely took a step towards Kaito! It seed her determination was unbreakable; even a god couldn't stop her confession!
Then...
Tearju tripped on flat ground!!!
Due to an unavoidable obstacle, just as Tearju was about to approach Kaito, she fell!
That's Tearju for you! Even in conditions insufficient to cause a fall, she can still perform the act of falling! Truly embodying the image of the bespectacled, big-breasted, airheaded blonde!
Thump...
"Are you okay, Mrs. Tearju?"
Kaito had no choice. He knew Tearju also had a passive ability for divine tripping.
Although not as amazing as Yuki Rito's 'falling', it was at least sothing an ordinary person couldn't achieve.
For this, he offered his embrace, catching her perfectly.
Or rather, holding her.
"Ah, ah, ah? Well, Mr. Kaito, thank you so much!"
Tearju ca to her senses. Realizing she had fallen into Kaito's arms, and her big assets were squashed, she thanked him shyly, then tried to control her breathing and extract herself from him.
But if she hadn't tried to extract herself, it might have been okay. The mont she did, her passive ability activated again.
God knows what enchantnt was on her feet. Just as she was about to stand straight, her foot suddenly slipped on the sand, and she fell backward.
Kaito didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He reached out, wrapped his arm around her waist, and gently lifted her back into his embrace.
Hmm...
Comfortable is comfortable. Anyway, Kaito wasn't embarrassed.
As for Tearju, she was already so shy her eyes were spinning.
Her whole body started turning red and hot, then dissipating heat through steam from the top of her head.
"Alright, are you steady now?"
"Y-yes... I'm steady now. Thank you again, Mr. Kaito..."
"Should I let you go then?"
"No, no, no! J-just like this! I'm scared!"
"..."
'Wow, are you afraid you'll keep falling?'
'Fall, be caught, and then get even more embarrassed?'
"Ahem, don't be afraid. I think it should be okay to let you go now."
After adjusting Tearju's position, Kaito slowly released her.
Fortunately, she didn't trip on flat ground again.
"Ugh... I'm so sorry... for making you see such an airheaded side of ... it's so embarrassing..."
"Hahaha... it's okay."
Kaito laughed it off. Confirming Tearju was okay, he moved a tiny bit away.
Hmm, doing this might help her relax a little.
Being too close might make it harder for her to continue the conversation.
"Alright, what did you want to say to earlier?"
"Ah, y-yes... Mr. Kaito, c-can you beco my... househusband?"
"!!!"
"W-wrong!!"
"Aaaaah!!"
Tap tap tap tap…
She suddenly ran off.
'Oh dear...'
Kaito never expected Tearju to say that.
'Was her brain circuitry suddenly poisoned?'
If she wanted to find a father for Eve, Kaito could accept that.
But 'househusband'? What was that??
Oh no, maybe she subconsciously knew her housekeeping skills were terrible and she was very airheaded, so she changed the wording, while also covering her shyness.
Well, househusband probably has the sa aning.
Because she couldn't cook, but for the sake of her daughter, she was seeking a househusband. Was that strange?
"Ahem, it seems she needs so ti to calm down."
"But, I guess this counts as getting closer."
Kaito watched Tearju sprint all the way to Sephie, hug her, and then hide behind her, crouching down. He shook his head helplessly and continued adding wood.
This water tank was huge and needed a lot of wood to boil. Kaito couldn't be bothered to boil buckets one by one, so he just boiled a large tank all at once.
"Wuwuwu... it's ruined, it's ruined. I finally gathered my courage, and I said the wrong thing QAQ!!"
Tearju continued to crouch and defend.
Clearly, she was in a very shy state.
And also angry at herself for saying the wrong thing earlier.
Sephie had finally helped her once, laying the groundwork with Kaito. If she had just confessed proactively, she might have succeeded.
As a result, she failed!!
"Sigh... It seems I'll have to help you again later. At your current rate... forget it, forget it."
Sephie felt the sa as Kaito.
She turned her head, glanced at Tearju crouching behind her, then ignored her and continued processing the vegetables.
The others had also seen Tearju, and then followed her direction back to Kaito. Among them, Shodai, Misuzu, Mika, and Sayuri all had other thoughts.
Only Kie and Irisviel were busy cooking delicious food.
Oh no, Kie was seriously teaching Irisviel how to stir-fry, and the latter was earnestly learning. Both just glanced and then ignored it.
"Shodai, what do you think Tearju was doing with Kaito just now?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Hmph"
Misuzu sidled up to Shodai and asked, only to be t with a cold shoulder.
"Fine, I'm not in a hurry anyway. But you... hehe, even I lose confidence when facing Tearju. And you? Tsk tsk, regrettable~"
"!!!"
'Damn!'
'Why bring this up again!!'
Hearing Misuzu's taunt maxed out, Shodai instantly bristled, then thrust the sea bass she was holding directly at her.
"Salted Fish Thrust!!"
Boooom!
Misuzu couldn't dodge in ti, and also couldn't turn around, so she took the Salted Fish Thrust attack.
But because the attack hit a spot that was particularly heartbreaking for Shodai, upon hearing the bouncy sound produced by the collision between the two, Shodai also took a huge critical hit.
As they say, the damage was low, but the humiliation was extrely high.
Unfortunately, the one humiliated was the attacker.
"Hehe, how co I only see that you couldn't even break through my defense, yet you took 99999 damage?"
"I wasn't wearing thornmail, was I?"
"Pfft—!!!"
Shodai, defeated.
