Chapter 1: Travel Preparation

*Chirp, chirp...*

Twitters of birds can be heard coming from the «Spirit Forest» surrounding the academy.

"Mm..."

Opening his eyes and rising up at his bed, his own half-asleep face was being reflected in the window.

His black hair was ruffled after sleeping. He had an insecure look in his eyes.

Compared to the innocent looks in his dream, his impression had changed greatly.

Four years ago... huh?

It had been a long time since he last dreamed about that period of time.

It was probably the first time he had one since coming to this academy.

To be frank, it was a memory he didn't even want to recall...

Kamito unintentionally cast his sight down to his left hand, where a spirit seal was engraved.

The seal of the darkness spirit―― the left hand which grasped victory at the Blade Dance three years ago.

Now I am trying to return to that arena once more

With the Blade Dance drawing near, he's probably feeling emotionally overwrought without realizing it.

That must have been the cause of him having a dream about that period of time, too.

As he was about to raise his body from the bed――

"......"

Kamito noticed something.

His body felt strangely heavy.

Something soft and pleasant was mounted on top of his waist.

"......?!"

Startled, Kamito flipped his blanket vigorously.

And then.

"Fua... Good morning, Kamito."

"E-Est?!"

A lovely voice that sounds just like a bell.

The one straddling Kamito's waist―― was a silver-haired beauty.

She had mysterious violet eyes. Her skin was white like freshly-pumped milk.

The figure in question, who was rubbing her drowsy-looking eyelids, was lovely just like a snow fairy.

Sword spirit Est. She was Kamito's contracted spirit, who was entitled the «Demon Slayer».

Apparently she had sneaked into Kamito's bed before he knew it.

On top of that, her attire was――

"What's wrong, Kamito?"

Still straddling on top of his waist, Est looked down on him expressionlessly.

"H-Hey, your attire..."

Est was fully naked―― No, she wasn't.

She was dressed up properly.

However.

"Kamito?"

Est tilted her head blankly. Kamito averted his eyes in a fluster.

Est was wearing Kamito's uniform shirt over her naked body.

She's probably not wearing underwear. Her attire was what called a naked-shirt.

From the exposed bosom, her slightly exposed pure-white skin was strangely captivating.

The cuffs were big and excessive, but they gave him an unnecessary maniacal feeling nonetheless.

"Wha—? Est, why are you wearing my uniform?"

"Kamito told me that I can't sleep together with you in nude."

Est replied expressionlessly.

Kamito was spontaneously startled as she tightly grabbed the chest area of the shirt.

"Yeah, I did tell you so."

Being at wits' end, Kamito groaned.

"Please, at least put on some panties."

"...Pan...ties?"

"Why are you making that wondering look?!"

It might be the case that even if spirits have the habit of wearing knee-socks, they don't have the habit of wearing panties.

(...Nah, Restia did have underwear on properly.)

Just when he was thinking about that――

"Hm?"

Suddenly, Kamito felt something out of place about Est's appearance.

It's not just about her wearing a naked-shirt――There seems to be something very different in Est this morning.

Kamito intently looked around Est's whole body.

"Kamito... Um, if you stare at me so much, I'll get embarrassed."

The expressionless Est blushed in an unusual manner, squirmed on top of his waist and rubbed her knees together.

At that moment, Kamito finally realized.

From the shirttail, her white thighs slightly came in sight.

And then, came her slender and smooth ankles like sculptures made of marble.

What Est was wearing wasn't her usual knee-high socks.

She was wearing short socks, of which the length is just about up to her ankles.

"Est, what's with those socks?"

"Well, I thought Kamito will be pleased with this kind of socks."

With her face still in red, Est firmly pinned down the shirttail.

This is the first time he sees Est making such an expression.

It appears that to her, exposing her bare feet is really embarrassing.

"Kamito, are you turned on at my short socks?"

"Nah, because I don't have such a maniacal fetish, you know?"

"...I see. That means this is still not enough to make you satisfied."

Est dropped her shoulders, seemingly disappointed.

"Still, it is quite impossible for me to show you my bare feet."

"I'm telling you, I don't have such a fetish."

Kamito groaned and shook his head. He really can't understand spirits' sense of shame.

(Even so――)

It was the truth that his heart pounded at Est's expression of blushing and being bashful in an unusual manner.

The sword spirit is always calm and expressionless.

That is exactly why he wants to try seeing more of her bashful expression.

(What will happen if I touch them, I wonder?)

Unexpectedly, Kamito's mind was tempted.

Anyhow, it's because Est, not any other girl, is bashful to this extend.

What will happen if he touches her bare feet?――He wants to try seeing it.

"......"

Kamito quietly reached out his hand――

Coochy.

He tickled Est's small foot.

"...Hyan!"

A sweet voice leaks out from her lips.

Est's body bent with a start.

"...Kamito, what are you doing?!"

"Hm? I'm massaging you."

Coochy coochy.

"Hya...a-n..."

Twisting her body, Est was in agony, seemingly tickled.

Such a reaction was so cute that it drove Kamito to――

Coochy. Coochy coochy coochy.

"...A-n, please... stop it..."

"No. This is your punishment."

"...Punishment?"

"Because Est is a bad girl for sneaking in my bed as she pleases."

Coochy coochy.

"Ann, Kami... to... forgive... me."

Tears were shed from Est's transparent eyes and she pleaded while gasping.

...As expected, she now looks a little pitiful.

"Have you reflected on your behavior?"

"Y... es..."

Kamito stop stickling, and Est fell lying face-down like she was exhausted.

Kamito gently hold Est back as she flopped onto him.

"...Kamito is so mean."

Est pouted her lips in an usual manner.

"My bad. Est is just so cute... So I did it without thinking."

He gently stroked Est's silver hair while making a bitter smile.

Just at that moment.

The room temperature rose instantly.

"...?!"

*Gogogogogogogo...!*

From behind him, a horrifying killing aura... No, heat was emitted.

When he turned around at the unpleasant premonition――

"Y-Y-You guys... Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-What are you doing?"

With her red pigtails standing on end, the beautiful girl was trembling all over.

Her ruby eyes were imposing. Her lips had the color of cherry blossoms in early blooming. The bulge on her chest is just about the same as that of a kid, but that very well-balanced proportion of hers is plenty charming.

Claire Rouge.

If it's appearance alone, she's exceptionally cute, an ultra beautiful girl without any exaggeration.

However, as she is now, she is more terrifying than any ferocious spirit.

"I-I've misjudged you. I-I didn't know you're such a pervert...!"

"Y-You got it wrong, Claire. This is, well, you see..."

Kamito was attempting to give an excuse in a fluster, but――
