Chapter 5: Claire's Feelings

Part 1

(…Sigh, I have totally got myself into something troublesome.)

While walking on the stone paving of the academy, Kamito sighed number of times today. In front of his eyes, there was the culprit, the red twin-tail hair swaying about.

As usual he was with an empty stomach, he lost his house and to make matters worse that was the outcome from a duel by fellow spirit users.

…No matter what the circumstances, this is beyond misfortune. It has to be none other than the Dusk Witch’s curse.

“Unh, are you grumbling? How unmanly!”

Claire turned around and snapped her fingers.

“My house.”

“U…”

Kamito groaned with his eyes half-opened, Claire averted her eyes to elsewhere far.

“Pyromaniac. Criminal.”

“…I… I get it! I also feel a little bad!”

She blushed and pouted her lips. It seemed she was at least aware of her crime.

As it was the right moment, Kamito blatantly sighed.

“Oh boy, the homeless me will have to sleep out in the Spirit Forest.”

“……”

“Sleeping at the night in the Spirit Forest is seriously a suicidal act. But it can’t be helped, after all, my house has been completely burned down.”

Kamito showed her him dropping his shoulders unnaturally.

Claire gnawed her lips. And then, she tip-toed -

And stared into Kamito’s eyes motionlessly.

Her face was near. Kamito was involuntarily startled as his nostrils was lightly tickled by the scent of a girl.

“…Okay, then. I…I’ll compensate you, properly!”

“Compensate?”

Kamito’s face somehow got stiff to a bad premonition.
