"Please, do."

How can resist her when her face looks like that? She's incredibly beautiful, especially with that red colour decorating her face.

"Not to me. You're the most beautiful. And I will only look at you."

The shark continued >
❝As your precious star, I promise to always shine for you... I will illuminate your darkest nights.❞

As Rojo withdrew from her neck, the pink-haired girl opened her eyes and gazed up into his.

Her face was incredibly flushed. In fact, it matched the colour of the marks the shark had left. Her >
"I need you by my side, my precious star."

This isn't good. If he keeps up, how will he be able to stop? So Rojo kisses the mark he just made to her neck before pulling back, slowly.

"You're so beautiful, and make me go crazy." >
September 27, 2026 at 6:51 PM
"H-Huh?"

Rojo was shocked for what he just heard. Had he given her such impression?

And well... actually, she is the prettiest to him.

"I suppose that would be an option. But won't it be too much of a hassle to think of activities? And you have permission to touch me."
❝That's not true! You are the most handsome man I know, Rojo-san. In fact, my heart has never reacted this way until meeting—❞

She cut herself off, deeply embarrassed by what had just slipped out of her mouth. Stella simply wanted him to see his own worth.

Of course it would make her happy. For >
"Surely there are more handsome men? I don't think I'm that attractive."

Would that make her so happy?

"I can't say for sure. And I don't really know how to find things that make me happy."
September 27, 2026 at 6:46 PM
"And I was asking... so you don't worry."

Rojo thought it would be obvious, but maybe he was wrong.

"I can assure you I don't dislike it."
Blink, blink. Raising a hand to her mouth, she let out a soft laugh.

❝Me? But, Rojo-san, you were the one that wanted to know what to do to prevent someone from worrying. It wouldn't make sense for me to decide.❞

Stella thought she had gone too far... Perhaps she had overstepped the line. >
"I feel comfortable with anything you'd decide on doing."

What's with that expression? Did he make her sad?

"I could never!"
September 27, 2026 at 6:43 PM
"I mean it. Although I don't think it's such a big deal."

Although the shark let her do that.

"It's a promise."
❝Do you truly mean that? Ah, I'm so happy! Oh, dear. I don't think I will be able to stop smiling.❞

Unable to hide her happiness, Stella swung their hands back and forth.

❝It's a promise!❞
... Yes. He also hopes to deepen their friendship, if possible.

"... Oh. The feeling is mutual, Stella-san. I'm glad I got to meet you."

She can do that. As much as she wants.

"We will meet again. I assure you."
September 27, 2026 at 6:41 PM
No...
¿Entonces le cree?
¿Como que mimos y besos? No hace falta que llegue tan lejos—
September 27, 2026 at 6:39 PM
"What are you even talking about? You're Night Raven's nurse, we don't have any other kind of relationship."

Why is he like this?
-I'm not offended, Rojo-kun. I'm hurt! Cold, shamed and lying naked on the floor.

He's paraphrasing an old song saying that.

-I thought I was something special to you--- Alas, illusion never changed into something real.
....
What is he doing.

"Uh? I never said any of that. I didn't intend to offend you."
September 27, 2026 at 6:39 PM
Eso lo duda, con lo que conoce de Nikos.

"¿Te será más cómodo si te llevo en brazos? Sería un problema si acabases cayéndote de mi espalda."
¡Oye, que no es temeridad gratuita! Bueno, esta vez sí... ¡Pero las otras veces fue necesario arriesgarse!

Bueno, él preferiría que Rojo lo llevase en brazos como una princesita rescatada del mar, pero como le eche tanto cuento al final se le verá el plumero. ¿O no...?

-Hm. Tienes una espalda>
¿Como que la tercera? ¿Puede dejar de ahogarse en el mar?

"Está bien. Entonces te llevaré. ¿Crees que podrás subirte a mi espalda?"
September 27, 2026 at 6:38 PM
It's not her fault. It's just that Rojo is quite wary of others and doesn't tend to believe some things.

"I know it's instinctual. So, why would you go against your instinct? You don't have to force yourself for that.

It doesn't feel right."
❝Even though you didn't mention it, I merely wanted to make sure you knew my feelings regarding the matter.❞

Ah... No matter what the bunny says to him, it always seems to be the wrong thing. Why is it so difficult for her?

❝It's nothing to do with you, Rojo-san. I promise. Truthfully, I would >
"When did I say it was an obligation? I said one chooses how to spend their time unless it's an obligation — like work or classes. You can't choose how to spend that time."

Why is she faltering? It's just the normal thing for him. Nothing else. >
September 27, 2026 at 6:36 PM
That's completely understandable. I can't keep you from your work. But know that I will miss you until the next time I get to see you.

I trust that seeing you will be worth it.
Alas, I'm afraid something as mundane as work must keep me from your company for a few hours per day. But you can rest assured I'll make each moment we share worth the wait.
That is correct. If you were with me, I'd always enjoy the view. But I can take the sea too.
September 27, 2026 at 12:20 PM
Como para no tenerla dura con lo que Nicola está haciendo. Y más cuando empieza a frotarse.

"Otra vez.. Necesito que me folle de nuevo. Mire qué dura me la pone y cómo le necesito..."
Oh, puede notarla más dura que antes, lo cual es una buena señal. Con un último mordisco, uno notablemente más fuerte, Nicola deja el pecho de Rojo en paz para frotarse contra vez contra la erección del pelirrojo, inclinándose sobre sus labios mientras jadea.

-Le noto algo inquieto~ ¿Le sucede >
Si quiere escuchar más de sus gemidos, puede seguir haciendo lo de ahora, porque no puede controlarlos cuando sus pectorales reciben esa clase de atención. Incluso su miembro vuelve a endurecerse — por si no estaba duro ya.
September 27, 2026 at 12:19 PM
¿Como que mimos y besos? No hace falta que llegue tan lejos—
¡Aquí nadie le está tomando el pelo a nadie! Si no le cree, Nikos no tiene problema en darle mimos y besos.
...

Ya puede dejar de tomarle el pelo.
September 23, 2026 at 8:49 PM
....
What is he doing.

"Uh? I never said any of that. I didn't intend to offend you."
-GASP!

Shock. Crushing shock. Nikos takes a hand to his chest with a kicked puppy face.

-So that's how it is--- Am I just a joke to you, Rojo-kun? I gave you my heart and now I learn I'm just like an NPC to you. Snif---
Nikos isn't one to talk.

"... I have no favourite nurse."
September 23, 2026 at 8:49 PM
¿Como que la tercera? ¿Puede dejar de ahogarse en el mar?

"Está bien. Entonces te llevaré. ¿Crees que podrás subirte a mi espalda?"
Oh, está /razonablemente/ bien. A fin de cuentas, es la... ¿tercera? vez que casi se ahoga en el mar. ¡Hahah!
Y no es aprovecharse de su buena fe, es aceptar su amable propuesta.

-Vivo a menos de diez minutos andando de aquí. Si vas por el sendero a la izquierda de esta playa, es una casa >
Pensaba que podría estar mareado y no sentirse bien tras casi ahogarse en el mar.... pero Nikos se aprovecha de su buena fe.

"No me importa. Y aún hay un buen camino hacia el campus. ¿O prefieres que te lleve a casa? Aunque no sé dónde vives."
September 23, 2026 at 8:25 PM
Is that so? He had no idea he would be an exception.

"They're supposed to sleep for eight hours, but not on somebody else's lap."
Because they're friends, of course! Cordelia wouldn't let just anyone sleep on her lap.

「 But you didn't sleep for too long, Rojo. An hour isn't that bad. Aren't humans supposed to sleep for eight hours? 」
Because of their friendship? What does that have to do with letting him sleep on her lap? Or is it because they're friends?

He still feels it necessary.

"How not? I slept for too long on your lap."
September 23, 2026 at 8:24 PM
Of course. Although it'd be harder to call her by her name in any case.

She should continue sleeping. Hopefully until next morning.
At least the shark is consistent...

Lost in a peaceful sleep, a soft smile tugged at her lips. She seemed to be having a pleasant dream.
Probably he'd call them by their titles.

Rojo went back to sleep, seeing that Cordelia was nice and comfortable in his arms.
September 23, 2026 at 8:23 PM
And he wouldn't want her to witness anything like that.

There's no way he could think that he can be happy. Not with what he has lived.

"Hey, don't be sad. I'm fine."
She wouldn't want the shark to deal with it on her own, though.

As she listened to him, a frown crossed her features. Rojo doesn't think he'll ever be happy...

❝...❞

She lowered her head, unable to hide her sadness.
It won't happen. And if it overflowed, he'd deal with it on his own.

"That... isn't possible for me anymore. I'm sorry to disappoint you."
September 23, 2026 at 8:22 PM
And that's why he doesn't say it aloud.

Rojo can carry her back to Royal Sword if she needs to. He certainly won't mind.
A usual thing...? Cordelia wouldn't like the sound of that.

On the way back from the patisserie, the princess will be sure to walk on her own! For now, she's just going to enjoy being close to him.
Sacrifice his own comfort? That isn't the case, since this is an usual thing. Still, he holds her close as he walks.
September 23, 2026 at 8:21 PM
That's not true. Cordelia did nothing wrong, and there isn't anything to regret.

Hands reached to gently wipe away her tears. Ah, she's crying a lot. He didn't want her to cry so much.

"A single individual can't protect everyone. He probably >
Given how awful the question was, Rojo's being way too kind to her. She doesn't deserve it... Words can't even begin to express how deeply she regrets it.

Cordelia shook her head, tears blurring her vision. It isn't alright at all! Despite her best efforts, the dam finally broke. Tears began >
Cordelia isn't a bad friend. She couldn't know. Anyone would fear it was because of them if a friend suddenly disappeared without saying anything.

He could understand if she cried. After all, his story was quite harsh. Rojo couldn't blame her for that. >
September 23, 2026 at 8:20 PM
Yes, they can do that.

"No, you don't have to pay me anything.

But shiny things, I like them."

It's what he says to make her stop from worrying over repaying him.
Really? That's definitely her wish!

「 If that happens, I promise to pay you back! Maybe I should try to earn some money...

Or I can repay you another way. Do you still like shiny things? 」
It's alright to be excited. If she so wishes, they can arrange for their next date.

"If you don't, I will pay for it."

Having her happy is what matters the most right now.
September 23, 2026 at 8:17 PM
No, because it won't ever be returned, if he fell in love.

"I appreciate you saying that, but I already know there isn't."
True love isn't possible for him? Blink, blink. His words left her utterly bewildered.

❝What do you mean? Of course it's possible for you, Rojo-kun! There's someone out there for everyone. You just haven't found them yet! Maybe they're lost.❞
"Maybe others have dreams, but I don't have one. I can't really play the piano nor I'm a collector. As to finding true love, I don't think that would be possible for me."

Who would even love someone like him in the first place?
September 23, 2026 at 8:15 PM
...

Ya puede dejar de tomarle el pelo.
¡Pues claro que es su tipo y que le gustaría tener una cita con él!
Oye, que está añadiendo adjetivos. ¿Qué es eso de partidazo? Suena como si fuera su tipo o quisiera salir con él.
September 22, 2026 at 12:08 PM
Nikos isn't one to talk.

"... I have no favourite nurse."
Rojo-kun is so stubborn!

-Do you have a favourite nurse and it's not me? Who are they!? I assure you, I'll surpass them!
That's right. And he won't deny it.

"Uh? What are you talking about?"
September 22, 2026 at 12:08 PM
Pensaba que podría estar mareado y no sentirse bien tras casi ahogarse en el mar.... pero Nikos se aprovecha de su buena fe.

"No me importa. Y aún hay un buen camino hacia el campus. ¿O prefieres que te lleve a casa? Aunque no sé dónde vives."
Problemáticos... Qué manera más suave de decirlo.

Nikos quería portarse bien, de verdad, no tomarle más el pelo al pobre Rojo-kun, que lo que tiene de grande lo tiene de bueno, pero, ¿cómo va a desaprovechar una oportunidad así? Así que, como el buen actor que es, esboza una pequeña sonrisa de >
No es problema de Nikos. Los merfolk son algo problemáticos dependiendo de la especie que uno sea.

"¿Necesitas que te lleve?"
September 22, 2026 at 12:07 PM
Oye, que está añadiendo adjetivos. ¿Qué es eso de partidazo? Suena como si fuera su tipo o quisiera salir con él.
¡A Nikos le parece atractivo, interesante, amable y todo un partidazo! ¡Jum! Y no va a hacerle cambiar de opinión.
No, no es verdad. Que alguien sea atractivo no quiere decir que pueda gustarle. Además de que no es atractivo. Ni amable.
September 21, 2026 at 5:28 PM
That's right. And he won't deny it.

"Uh? What are you talking about?"
He doubts every compliment he receives!

-Whaaaaaat?

Nikos answer with an exaggerated cry.

-Do you have another favourite nurse? You're cheating on me??
A beautiful heart? Now he doubts that. His heart isn't like that.

"You're a bit of a pain, yes. And I already know you have no intention to stop being pushy. But making you coffee is my job, nothing to do with you being my favourite nurse or anything."
