Shirou, who returned from the Fairy Kingdom

It may take many, many years, but... I will absolutely not give up.

Because this is the dream I've just found.

"...Fujino?"

Shirou sensed something was wrong and turned to look at her in surprise, only to be yelled at, "Don't look!"

"Don't look...it hurts so much...not physically...it hurts my heart so much..."

Fujino's body began to tremble violently in Shirou's arms.

"This is what heartbreak feels like... It hurts so much, I'm almost crying... Shirou-kun, may I cry?"

"Ah."

Shirou nodded: "If it hurts, just cry it out."

Fujino remembered that her mother had said the same thing when she was a child.

The girl leaned on Shirou's shoulder, a happy expression on her face, and sobbed softly.

……

……

The next morning, Shirou opened his eyes in Aozaki Touko's bed.

"...?"

Shirou felt dazed and confused, as if his soul had been ripped out of his body, leaving him completely unable to move.

Barely managing to think, the boy thought: Could this be...?

"You have a high fever. You should stay in bed all day."

Aozaki Touko sat down on the edge of the bed and touched Shirou's cheek with her slender fingers.

"Don't worry, Shirou. Since I'm the one who infected you, I'll take responsibility for taking care of you... Here, let me change your underwear first?"

As she said this, the orange witch licked her lips, revealing a bewitching smile that seemed to say, "I've got a plan."

Volume 3, Chapter 164: Was he truly devoured completely?

"As expected of a young boy, his physical functions are at their peak. His fever has already subsided after only three days."

Aozaki Touko sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the thermometer marked with Shirou's body temperature, and said.

"I was bedridden for a whole week and still didn't get better. I'm so envious."

Shirou, your severe cold is almost completely cured.

But just to be on the safe side, I'd better get some rest in bed tonight.

"Uh……"

Shirou looked slightly confused.

Shirou has always been the one taking care of others, and he is rarely the one being taken care of by others.

So, being bedridden and completely unable to move, with Aozaki Touko taking care of his daily needs like this for the past few days, is a very new experience for him.

Although he was very grateful for the meticulous care Aozaki Touko had given him over the past three days, it was ultimately Touko who had given him the cold...

If she hadn't suddenly attacked and stuck her tongue in... Shirou wouldn't have contracted that inexplicable, strange virus that even magicians could be affected by.

"What's wrong? Are you still worried that you'll be defeated by a cold? Don't take it too seriously, Shirou."

This is the latest cold virus this year. Your body doesn't have antibodies to fight it, so there's nothing you can do about getting sick.

Viruses are like magic; it's not only the ancient that are powerful. Otherwise, wouldn't my research be pointless?

As usual, Aozaki Touko continued talking non-stop.

Shiki and Fujino visited Shirou at the agency yesterday and the day before.

Before leaving, Fujino said that it was back-to-school day, so she couldn't come. Shiki said that she seemed to have some family matters to attend to, so she wouldn't be coming either.

Today, only Shirou and Touko are in the agency.

Shirou had no interest in listening to Touko's endless ramblings on modern magic; he had something far more perplexing about him—

"Sister Orange, may I ask a question?"

“Of course.” The orange-clad magician nodded.

She switches to a gentle mode when she puts on her glasses. Perhaps because Shirou is still a patient, she is more approachable than usual today.

"Um... Sister Orange, I really don't want to talk about this kind of topic with women, but where are my clothes? Also, why am I completely naked?"

"That's a really stupid question."

Aozaki Touko took off her glasses and placed them on her desk, glancing at the boy lying on the bed like an innocent child as she answered.

"When a man and a woman are in the same room, isn't there only one thing they can do next?"

"……………………Spare me."

Shirou sighed.

He had barely recovered from a severe cold, but he was so weak that he couldn't move at all. It was really too cunning of him to use Rune Binding on me when I was weak.

That's not the point!

I'm Aoko's lover!

Stop joking! If Aoko finds out, I'm dead!

Aoko and I are still only at the stage where we're allowed to put our hands on each other while kissing!

And I already have Yuju, my acknowledged lover... Isn't that enough? I've even started a relationship with my lover's older sister...

If those two find out, I'll be hunted down to the ends of the earth!

Shirou struggled desperately, but he had already been bound to the bed by Aozaki Touko using runes while he was fast asleep.

"Don't worry, I know you're too weak to move right now, so I'll take care of you. Shirou just needs to lie down and rest."

As she spoke, she began to unbutton her white shirt, looking very happy.

"Wait, wait a minute, Orange Sister! If Aoko and Ayumi find out, we're all dead!"

Aozaki Touko untied her high ponytail.

The doll wielding her bright red hair exudes a seductive and mature aura.

"Hmm...then let's die together. Dying together with Shirou doesn't seem so bad."

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not like you, I can't resurrect indefinitely!"

"Once I get a new body, I'll be able to enjoy virginity again. Shirou, you're so lucky... This is definitely every man's dream, right?"

"By then, I was already buried in the Shiroinzuka graveyard!!!"

Orange ignored Shirou's resistance.

"Well……?"

Shirou's eyes widened, and he held his breath.

He initially thought that as long as he didn't cooperate, Orange wouldn't be able to do anything to him, but...

"I was a little worried, but it seems there's no problem... Shirou and I are indeed in love with each other."

Aozaki Touko smiled radiantly upon seeing this.

"...?"

……

……

The birdsong awakened Shirou.

The familiar ceiling of the firm came into view.

On a beautiful morning, Shirou tried to move his shoulders and limbs, which no longer felt as heavy as when he woke up yesterday.

My severe cold has finally completely healed.

His mind cleared, and Shirou clearly remembered everything that had happened during the days he was unconscious.

"........."

His face slowly turned deathly pale.

Last night, could it be...?

No, it must have been a nightmare, right?

While I was seriously ill and bedridden, Orange took the opportunity to attack and devour me completely.

Although she was initially very passive, she quickly gave up thinking, stopped resisting, and even took the initiative to hug the orange tightly...

The two, having gotten into the mood, finally reached the peak of pleasure...

How could such a thing possibly happen... Hahaha, what an annoying dream.

at this time--

A smell that he didn't like but could tolerate wafted into Shirou's nose.

He turned his head and saw a woman, naked except for a shirt, sitting to the side as if it were perfectly natural.

Shirou felt as if he had fallen from heaven to hell in an instant: ...It wasn't a dream after all.

The red-haired doll gracefully crossed her fair, white legs, a slender menthol cigarette dangling from her fingers.

If you look closely, you can also see scratches on her back and handprints on the skin below...

"...Gu."

Shirou swallowed hard, the scenes from last night becoming clearer in his mind.

Aozaki Touko noticed the gaze and turned around.

The two locked eyes, and Orange narrowed her eyes, revealing a charming smile—

Good morning, Shirou.

"..."

"What's wrong? Do you still want me to call you 'darling'?"

"Spare me." Shirou held his forehead.

I got out of bed and quickly got dressed.

"Are you going back?"

Aozaki Touko looked at Shirou curiously and asked.

"No, I must have accumulated a lot of work these past few days... Sister Orange has been taking care of me."

Now that I'm better, I need to work hard to repay you.

Shirou walked to the desk and sat down in Orange's seat.

I started organizing the documents for Xiaochuan Apartment and other follow-up work.

Although Araya Sōren has been defeated, he has prepared other pieces... If not dealt with, they may threaten Shiki's safety.

"Oh, that's really reliable... I'll leave it to you, Shirou," Touko said with a smile.

"Could you please put your clothes on?" Shirou asked, forcing himself to speak.

“I would wear it if a client came, but there’s no need to wear it in front of Shirou... We’re already in that kind of relationship.”

As she said this, Orange stretched, her large, perky breasts swaying alluringly in the morning sunlight.

Knowing that she was deliberately teasing him, Shirou decided to ignore her.

The still air flowed through the room, and ten minutes passed just like that.

"We have a guest. Shirou, please help me get dressed."
