Everything was dark yet there were glimpses of white everywhere. But those glimpses weren't lively.. Rather, stars. Dead stars that were dead. Everything was destroyed, dead.

(Why did it happen? What was going on? Where am I?)

Even though I am asking myself, it felt like I already knew the answer. Yet, that answer couldn't come to my mouth. As if there was something that was holding me back. Then suddenly my mouth opened, but I wasn't in control. 

“Forg-- --...“

What was I saying? I don't know. I can't understand it myself. 

“Forget...“

Forget?

“...me.“

Forget me? 

“Forget me, all.“

...

“FORGET ME!!!“

=========

“HHAAAH... HAAAH... HHAAHH... haah... hah... W-what was that?”

Was that a dream? It didn't feel like it. It felt like something I experienced before. Like I knew why I was saying it, but I didn't understand it.

*Ding Dong*

That was an odd thing. It was the first time I dreamt in a while. But was that really a dream?

*Ding Dong*

Huh?

*Ding Dong*

*Ding Dong*

*Ding Dong*

(What the hell? Who came so early in the morning?)

I headed towards the main door while it was still ringing. As I opened the door-

“Ai!”

Somebody hugged me. Guess who? Luna, who else? 

“Huh? You are back so early?“

“Early? So, you didn't miss me?“

“Not that. I did miss you but you said it might 2 weeks or something.“

“Well, I finished all the work and arrived early?“

“Is that so?“

“Can't I?“ 

She gave me a cute posture... Haah~ I really did miss her.

“Of course, you can. This is also your home.“

“M-my home???“

“Huh? Anything wrong?“

“N-no, nothing.“

After that quite the morning, I had breakfast with her and talked about a few small things. She dragged me along with her to the bedroom for some reason.

“Now... Strip!“

“... What?“

“Strip?“

“... Why?“

“Huh? To check if there are any injuries?“

“...“

(Ahemm... Nevermind.)

“Ehhh~~~ were you thinking something naughty?“

“No.“

“Really~?“

“Yes.“

“... Alright now strip.“

“I'm fine. No need to strip.”

“I said strip!“

“Yes... my princess.“

She gave an irritated or so she thought look. But it just seemed cute to me.

After taking off my shirt and throwing it onto my bed, I gave her a glance. And well, as I guessed, she was blushing like a tomato. After that, I did a 360 for her to look.

“See? No injuries.“

“Y-yeah...“

“Alright then~”

As I was approaching my shirt that I just threw-

“Now... Lay down.“

She told me to lie down. This time her face wasn't just only red, it was like she was gonna have a heatstroke right at this moment.

“...Do I have to?“

“...Yes. I will do an internal check-up...“

“Alright, my princess.“

As I lay down on the bed without much thought. And she took out a... cream? lotion? What is that?

“What is... 'that'?“

“A cream for internal pain and injuries, it's made from an essence of deep ocean.“

“Okay?“

I wasn't in pain though. But what is a deep ocean essence? I couldn't even find it through the decillions of soul memories I have. So, I used 'Akashik Record'.

[Name: Deep Ocean's Blessing Cream (Modified)

Rank: SSS+

Description: An ointment made from the world tree droplet. It has extremely high regeneration effects and mana recovery rate. 

Caution: It has been modified to a certain degree to make the subject's thinking go irrational.]

...What? Irrational? Irrational about what? As I was thinking about this Luna climbed up on me. And sat right above my... belt. 

“L-luna!?“

“Shh... I'm just applying an ointment. Why are so flustered?“

After that she tried to apply the ointment but... she... she is rubbing somewhere... she isn't supposed to rub with something other than her hands. 

“Luna...“

“Haahh... Haah... Haah... A-ai...“

... What is this situation? What do you want me to do? What am I supposed to do??? 

“Haah... Haaahh...“

She was going red by the moment. It seemed like whatever she modified in that ointment was working on her instead. My thing... also started to rise. She was stimulating not only herself but also me. And finally, I grabbed her hands and reversed our situation. 

“Kyaahh!“

“You... You do know what it means to do what are doing right?“

'---- me...'

“Hmm?“

“Kiss... Meee...“

She gave me a seductive look and said to kiss her. No man in their right man would be able to resist this. And I am also a man in his right mind. 

"Mmmmmm~!!!"

And I went for the kiss. It wasn't a speck on the lip or anything. We intertwined our tongues. We exchanged our saliva. We tried our best to get whatever we could from this and finally, we parted off each other's lips. 

We were both gasping for air. But we weren't finished. It was just the beginning. She gave me another seductive gaze and dropped a bomb.

“You will be responsible for what happens from here on, won't you?“

(!!!)

“Yeah, always!“

"AhhHhHMm~!!!"

(A/n: In the future, might add some r-18 chapters as .5 chapters here and there.) 

...

...

...

We made our love from morning to noon. It was a glamorously long first time. And, we were both tired out. 

Luna was currently naked sleeping beside me on my arm with the bed sheets as covers. I couldn't help but smile at my beloved. 

(She always makes me feel at ease.)

No matter what anybody might say but I have never met anybody like her in this life nor my past life. I just hope that I will be able to protect these moments. 

“Mmmm~”

“You awake, my sleepy angel?”

“Y-yeah..“

She curtly replied embarrassed, trying to hide her face behind the covers. But rather her other plum assets started to show.

“Don't try to hide your face now. I have seen literally everything, hiding your face won't just do justice anymore~”

“I-Idiot!!!“

She hit my chest lightly... Actually with some force. I was impressed to be able to stay conscious with all the seals on. But my expressions gave it away.

“Ahh! A-are you okay?“

“Hahaha I'm fine.“

“I am sorry~”

“As I said I'm fine. It doesn't hurt... much.“

“...“

She gave me a deadpan look. I mean, you were the one who told me to be honest. 

“Just kidding~”

“... Don't ever get into a fight like that.“

She now had a serious expression. I understood what she was talking about. 

“But it was a fight to protect.“

“Protect?”

“Yes, to protect everyone close to me. So, that no one will ever look down on us.“

“By everyone, you mean two people, don't you?“

“...“

There are a few more than two though. But I didn't talk back anymore because her eyes were becoming watery.

“... Do you know, how much it hurt me to watch you bleed like that?“

“... Sorry.“

“Do you know, how much I felt like going to you in an instant?“

“Sorry.“

“D-do you know, h-how much... bitter it feels to see you like that?“

“...“

She had tears rolling down her eyes. I couldn't say anything. I never wanted her to cry, nor get hurt. Yet, for me, for someone like me, she was now crying. 

I couldn't help but hug her tightly. I didn't want her to cry nor feel pain.

“I-I'm sorry. I... just wanted to know how much strong these so-called aces of the empire are. I won't do anything that can hurt me, alright?“

“...You promise?“

She cutely put out her pinky finger. It reminded me of someone, someone from my past life... I couldn't help but put a little smile on my face. And intertwined my pinky with hers.

“I promise. I promise I won't fight recklessly anymore if I can.“

“...Alright, don't go back on it.“

“Yes yes, my Queen~”

“Also... Don't show your face like that ever again in front of girls.“

“Huh?”

“... Nothing nevermind.“

“Hmm~”

I patted her head and we talked a bit more. These moments are what really make me feel like me.
