Zero no Tsukaima:Volume9 Chapter2 - MTL

Next morning...　

Inside the forest of south Gotha, tearing a morning haze, a single girl showed up.

Her delicate body wrapped up in a black mantle, her long pink hair were falling free. With annoyed gestures she brushed off a slightly damp, from the forest’s morning dew, hair lock back, as she continued to lean against a tree. Girl’s cheeks were slightly pink, matching the color of her hair.

It was Louise.

Taking a deep breath, Louise squatted down next to the tree and hugged her knees. Then, she burred her pretty face into them and muttered silently.

“Uuuuuuuu, it's so embarrassing. What to do? You can’t be embarrassed. It's too late to feel embarrassed now.”

With a blush on her cheeks, after some rustling Louise took something out... It was… a part of a black cat clothes that she made the other day. And then placed it on her head – black cat’s ears appeared on Louise’s head.

Blushing furiously, Louise fixed the ears.

“It’s embarrassing. But I cannot be defeated.”

She recalled conversation with Saito last night. And the uneasiness with which he did not wanted to talk about Tiffania…

Is it something… concerning her breasts hidden by her clothes?

Louise could die just from a single explosion from such huge gunpowder barrels…

What secret. This...

She felt uneasy since the last night she found the connection. Anyway Louise, bound for the time being, wanted to be Saito’s best. Do you want to be compared to others? She thought, deciding that she didn’t want that. It was her first time after all. She wanted to carefully chose the moment when her heart would be ready.

Nevertheless… after seeing such things, she could not stay calm.

So…

These are weapons that shake my pride…

Breasts.

Right, the frightening and brutal articles. Tiffania had two of them.

They were huge.

No, huge is not the problem.

It’s that she herself didn't have those ultimate weapons equipped.

It’s that after seeing those things, Saito, after kissing Louise, asked ‘Is this a chest?’ Those were his first words.

Seeing such things, and then seeing Louise’s flat chest, it is not very hard to come to such conclusion.

However, she was determined to not allow that.

“Even I won’t be defeated.”

She persuaded herself.

And, I want prove it.

Louise felt necessity to build up her self-confidence.

Then Louise stood up, raised a big bag to her chest and opened it. Once it was open she let out a deep breath. Louise breathed deeply for a short moment trying to calm herself down. Louise flat chest was lifting up and down.

With an angry face, Louise stared at it.

“No one is here.“

Around here, only children, excluding Tiffania, lived in Westwood village. She could see only a squirrel collecting nuts and a small bird.

“Well, do it.”

Silently muttering, Louise took off the Academy of Magic uniform. She took off her skirt too, and stood dressed only in underwear.

Louise took out an item from the bag to fulfill the 'Make me confident' strategy.

“Though I took it without permission… I left my own clothes instead.”

Louise's trembling hand was grasping Siesta’s maid clothes. She crooked them from the bedside of Siesta who was sleeping in the living room. Since it didn’t have apron, she took Tiffania’s that was placed on the chair.

“That idiot likes maids.”

Louise muttered, closing her eyes and trying to sort her thoughts out.

“But he also likes master. Maybe. Probably. That’s what he said. Maybe those are only words…”

Louise nodded – un un.

“I’ll add two. Surely with this I’ll be invincible. Well, cat-ears are a bonus.”

She said while fiddling with cat ears.

She wore rustling Siesta’s maid clothes.

“Uu…”

After noticing the spacey part for the breasts, Louise grasped fists and let out a sigh. Not only Tiffania has this brutal power, she remembered. Though not Tiffania, Siesta was also comparatively wonderful.

“What's that! It’s too big! It’s ridiculous! That stupid maid! It’s not virtuous!”

Though Siesta was not looking for honor anyway, kick! kick! – Louise began kicking the tree. After kicking it for a while, she shook her head and looked down.

“No, not lost. No way Louise would lose like this. Ah, aah, aaah, you're not even really cute!“

She muttered many times, persuading herself.

“I'm cute. Very cute. I’m the cutest in the whole Halkeginia. Besides, I'm a supporter of void. This means I can cast a wonderful magic. Really great. Great. Therefore you can go without worries. That…”

Louise touched the emptiness of maid clothes at the breast’s part. Fully recognizing the difference in size, she began to kick the tree again.

“Whatever I eat! It doesn’t change at all! Neeeh!”

From the impact of the kicks, various insects started falling from the tree. Louise screamed.

“Nooooooooooo!”

Her parents never saw Louise cry so hard. No one ever saw her so weak. Haah, haah Louise breathed wildly, shaking her head.

“What. Really, my void can beat these baggy boobs easily!”

Then Louise crumpled the her shirt into the chest space of maid’s clothes. Seems like Louise was really a void. Void in a certain meaning. It was empty.

Though the bust looked somewhat distorted, Louise was satisfied and started to practice for the time when Saito will pass the tree.

This morning Louise slipped out the bed quietly, and left a letter for Saito under the door. ‘Come to the forest’ was written there.

She did not write where in the forest and who is waiting.

Louise, with her noble pride, thought that he would understand it naturally. Though someone may doubt if not telling the place to Saito was a good idea, but as said, Louise wanted to prepare for it properly.

“Right, today I will say important words. Sorry…”

Sorry? Louise glanced up at the tree.

“Thank you for always helping me. But though you always take care of me… I do not show much gratitude to you. Therefore I…”

Louise placed a finger under her chin.

“Therefore, a familiar shouldn’t be treated like that forever. Since you love me… and I , uhm, too sometimes dream of you…Don’t misunderstand. It is not a full love yet. How about it? Insufficient?”

With a blush on her cheeks Louise muttered.

“I like you more than a familiar. That feeling. You're higher. Therefore I promote you to servant. Great isn’t it! You can be treated as human. Isn’t it wonderful? And to show that I'm genially grateful…”

Louise at her best tried to “make him fall for me completely”.

To make fall in love was the so called ‘expression of gratitude’ by Louise.

Louise with both her hands took the corners of her skirt, and lightly biting her lips, muttered.

“…I thought this is what you want. Well, for me it's important what you want. You said you love me. Therefore, please…”

Louise lifted the maid’s skirt and held the corner of it in her mouth, revealing, slender legs and white underwear under it.

And said in a low voice

“…be gentle.”

This was, Louise thought, a killer shot…

This tremendous legendary powers exceeded void’s spells.

She would die if Saito saw her like that. Such spectacle.

For a while Louise’s body froze in this position.

However, she had a second thought. Here in such place, she wasn't a noble anymore. She stopped being one of the duke’s family members in here. She lost her name when she stepped here. Uuu, a nameless woman.

After thinking for a while, Louise pointed at her body with her finger.

“B-but, t-this, t-this is still not good. Really. Can’t stop it anymore.”

Then Louise's face blushed even more. She became shameful. Then, as if not able to endure it anymore and stop it, Louise continued the one-man play.

“H-hey! W-where are you touching! I said stop already!”

Louise made a pushing away gesture with her hand.

“Hey! Stop! Are you listening? Dog! Stupid dog!”

And so the small birds and squirrels watched in amazement how Louise, who was sitting under the tree, continued brushing off Saito’s hands many many times.
