Shigure - Prince of Mei - Sun End

Chapter 5 - Behind Him

(W-What do we do?) 

Some bright threatening eyes were glaring at us. 

(Scary...) 

I immediately picked up the puppy. At that moment... Shigure-san stood in front of me to protect me. 

MC: ...Shigure-san? 

I could see that Shigure-san's legs were shaking.

(Shigure-san must be scared too.) 

The next moment...

MC: ...!

The wolf jumped at us. 

Shigure: ...!

Shigure-san held me to protect me. 

MC: Shigure-san!!

When the wolf scratched him, a linear wound was made on Shigure-san's arm. 

Shigure: ...I'm okay. ...I won't let any harm come to you. 

Shigure-san's back felt very reliable. I slowly entrusted myself to his trembling body... 

 

Last Chapter - You Gave Me Courage

The wolf was gradually closing in on us. 

Shigure: ...It'll be okay. 

When I grabbed Shigure-san's back, I closed my eyes tight. The next moment... 

Puppy: Woof!

The puppy slipped through my arms and headed towards the wolf. 

MC: Ah...!

Shigure: Look out...

The wolf opened it's mouth widely towards the puppy that was approaching it. 

(...!) 

Shigure-san bent forward to go save the puppy, but... 

MC: ...!? 

The wolf started licking the puppy affectionately. 

(Could it be that...) 

MC: Could it be that the wolf is that puppy's mother? 

Shigure: Eh...!? 

The puppy rubbed his head against the wolf as he made affectionate cries. 

Shigure: ...Seems like it. 

When the baby wolf glanced towards us, he wagged his tail and went back into the forest with his mother. 

(T-That's a relief.) 

Shigure: To think that puppy was a wolf... How surprising. 

MC: Yes... 

Just as I became relieved, I felt myself about to go down at that spot. 

Shigure: Are you okay? 

Shigure-san grabbed my arm and held me up. That hand was very warm as it reassured me. 

MC: Shigure-san, thank you for protecting me. Your injury...!? 

To reassure me as I was worrying, he gently narrowed his eyes. 

Shigure: This much is no big deal. We should get back to the castle soon. 

Shigure-san showed a refreshing smile that he's never shown before. 

Then, we returned to the castle. 

......

That night, while I was looking at the starry sky outside the window... 

Shigure: MC... Is now a good time? 

When I heard Shigure-san's voice, I opened the door. 

MC: What's wrong? 

Shigure: Actually... Thank you for today. I was able to get my dagger back too. 

I looked at his face as he wasn't moving while standing straight in front of the door. 

MC: You're the one who protected me. Also, it was because that dagger brought back the courage that you hold. 

Shigure: You... You're the one who gave me courage. 

MC: Me? 

When Shigure-san gently held my hand... 

He placed a light kiss on my hand. 

MC: ...!

Shigure: You called me wonderful. I couldn't understand why you said that's how you think about me, but... That's what made me feel very courageous. 

MC: Shigure-san... 

I remembered Shigure-san's back from when he protected me from the wolf. 

MC: Shigure-san, I think you're very kind... and also, strong. 

Shigure: MC... Thank you. If I ever become courageous, it'll be thanks to you. 

When Shigure-san looked at me with his cheeks all red, my heartbeat became so fast that it even surprised me. 

Shigure: I thought of how I wanted to protect you. 

Shigure-san's eyes were looking straight at me. 

MC: Shigure-san... 

As Shigure-san's face was looking very gallant... My heart throbbed loudly. 

I noticed that the stars that appeared in the clear night sky were shining on us brightly...
