Chapter 6 - As a Single Man to You...
Sieg-san and I were surrounded by cheers. Among them, I could clearly hear what Sieg-san is saying.
Sieg: For you... I will love you as a single man.
MC: ...!
Sieg: My princess...
He looked at me with a warm gaze. When he gently pulled me, he wrapped his arms around me.
(As a single man...?)
I could feel his body that was warm from the match and his fast heartbeat.
MC: Sieg... -san?
Sieg: ...!
When Sieg-san came to his senses, he released me.
Sieg: H-How very rude of me!
MC: It's okay...
Sieg: ...Now then, let's go back. Princess.
Sieg-san had his back facing me. When I took a quick peek at his ears, I saw that they were turning red... My body was still warm from when he was hugging me...
Chapter 7 - Avoiding Gaze
The small birds chirping made the morning atmosphere tremble. Since the heat of the tournament has cooled down, a beautiful morning has come.
Along with the sound of a knock, Sieg-san was there.
Sieg: Good morning, Princess.
MC: Sieg-san...
-Flashback-
Sieg: For you... I will love you as a single man.
-Flashback-
When I remembered his confession yesterday, my face became warm.
(Sieg-san said those words...)
Even though I want to be certain about the true meaning behind his words, I felt somewhat hesitant asking about it.
Sieg: Ah, if you were still in the middle of getting yourself ready... I'll excuse myself.
MC: N-No.
Sieg: I-I see... Then, if there's anything else, please tell me.
When Sieg-san averted his gaze from me, he bowed respectfully.
(Sieg-san, why? You usually look straight at me.)
MC: I'll be okay, so go take your time to rest, Sieg-san. You're probably still tired from yesterday.
Sieg: No, not at all!
Even though he was looking at me, he moved his gaze to the side soon after.
(Somehow, he's acting strange.)
MC: You really do look tired...
Sieg: ...!
Just as I took a step closer to Sieg-san, he did the same by taking a step backwards.
(Eh...?)
Sieg: ...
MC: Sieg-san...?
I said his name, but as I was looking at him, he hung his head down.
(Why...?)
As Sieg-san stubbornly refused to look at me, I became surprised myself as I became filled with loneliness.
(It's probably because of what happened after his confession yesterday... Could it be that Sieg-san is regretting it...?)
Sieg: Princess! What's wrong!? Your complexion is...!
When I looked up, Sieg-san's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at me worriedly.
(I wonder what kind of face I was making...)
As I was feeling pain in my heart, I wasn't sure what kind of face I was making now.
Sieg: You should go rest for a bit! Come on, let's go!
As I was standing still in a daze, Sieg-san pressed me to go into the room.
Sieg: Now then, lie down in bed...
When Sieg-san touched my arm, he immediately lets go of me.
Sieg: P-Please excuse me...! But... I'll be back...!
MC: Please wait!
Sieg-san stopped when I said that.
MC: Why are you avoiding me...?
Sieg: I'm... I'm a knight.
Sieg-san said that in pain.
Sieg: Even so... My feelings... My feelings towards you were growing so fast... I couldn't resist them. If I keep on touching you like this... I might even ignore your feelings. When I hugged you yesterday, I didn't want to let go of you again. So... I wanted to distance myself from you for a bit.
MC: Sieg-san...
Sieg: I just didn't want anything bad to happen to you... My apologies...
While I stood still in the room, there was the sound of the door opening. As I didn't know what to think of, I gently gripped my chest...
Last Chapter - A Strong Wish
As I was sitting on the sofa, I looked at the sky that was dyed by the sunset.
-Flashback-
Sieg: If I keep on touching you like this... I might even ignore your feelings. When I hugged you yesterday, I didn't want to let go of you again. So... I wanted to distance myself from you for a bit.
-Flashback-
I was in pain because of what he said.
(I...)
After a while, there was a knock and Sieg-san showed himself from the door.
Sieg: ...Are you feeling okay?
My chest tightened from his kind voice.
MC: I'm all right now.
When Sieg-san stepped away from me, he stood in front of the door and hung his head down.
MC: Um...
Just as I was about to speak, I couldn't bring out any words and closed my mouth.
Sieg: ...What's wrong?
(I...)
Sieg: Princess...?
(Up until now, I have accepted Sieg-san's words.)
When I felt the need to touch Sieg-san for the first time, my own feelings made the answer clear.
(I need to tell him properly.)
Sieg: Princess... Are you really okay?
MC: I'm sorry.
Sieg: W-Why are you apologizing!?
Sieg-san ran towards me in a panic. When Sieg-san strongly held my shoulders, he looked straight at me, but...
Sieg: ...!
He immediately lets go of me and clenched his fist.
MC: Don't let go...
Sieg: Eh...
MC: I want to... touch you.
I gently placed my hand on Sieg-san's hand.
Sieg: P-P-Princess!?
MC: I was happy when you hugged me... Aren't I your maiden?
As I told him how I felt, I looked at Sieg-san's eyes.
MC: I'm sorry for giving you such painful thoughts, all because I was unable to tell you this properly. I love you too, Sieg-san.
The next moment...
MC: ...
When he pulled me with his long arm, my face was buried in his warm chest.
Sieg: Such a beautiful maiden... Aside from any opera that I've seen, they've never shown anything like your beauty. The maiden's feelings... They've made me the happiest man in the world.
MC: Sieg-san...
Sieg: Princess... I love you.
Sieg-san's voice that was like singing made my heart skip a beat.
Sieg: If I feel like embracing you... I will!
When he wrapped his arms around my back, he hugged me tightly.
MC: ...Sieg-san... You're hurting me a little.
Sieg: Ah! My apologies!
After Sieg-san lets go of me in a panic, his face quickly turned red.
Sieg: I knew it, if I don't distance myself, you will... No, even so! That will make you sad again...!
When Sieg-san's thoughts were going around, he smiled brightly as if he has thought of a good idea.
Sieg: I'll grant your wish next. I'll fulfill anything that you want.
MC: Me?
Sieg-san held my hand with a smile.
Sieg: My beloved princess. Please tell me your wish.
Along with that seductive whisper, Sieg-san placed his lips on my ear.
MC: My wish is...
When I whispered it to him, Sieg-san's face became red fast.
Sieg: That's the same thing that I wished for... For you, it'll be my pleasure no matter what.
As Sieg-san was feeling embarrassed for the first time by his own exaggeration, I listened to his heartbeat. When I broke into a smile, Sieg-san smiled too.
Sieg: Now then, as for your wish...
When he stopped his words, his face got closer to me. As I closed my eyes, I felt a soft sensation against my lips.
MC: Mm...
After Sieg-san's lips slowly parted from mine, he whispered to me affectionately.
Sieg: Can we do that one more time?
When I gave Sieg-san a small nod, he snatched my lips away more intensely than before.
Sieg: Princess... I wish for you to be by my side forever.
MC: Okay...
(Even though the story of the Diamond Maiden was about a blighted love.)
Being with Sieg-san from here on will be a happy story... I thought of that during the repeated kisses...
