Ch.63 Lili-san Seems to be Safe (She was Unconscious)

『... I'm very sorry about that earlier.』

『No, it's fine.』

When I got back to my room, Lili-san woke up.

She seemed a little dazed but didn't seem to have a fever.

I checked by holding our foreheads together so it's probably okay...oh, children have high body temperatures, don't they?

Well, whatever.

Lili-san almost fainted again after I checked her forehead for fever, and her face was bright red, but she said, 『It's... just my constitution!』

If it's just her constitution, there's nothing we can do about it.

People's constitutions should be respected.

By the way, my constitution is that I like alcohol.

It's just my constitution, right?

So it's okay for me to drink alcohol, right?

I can't?

By the way, all conversations have been in a foreign language ever since.

We seems to be able to have conversation naturally but it's a bit scary.

It's convenient though.

『...Once again, thank you very much. Thanks to you, I was able to return safely. Thanks again.』

Maybe because I made her stay on the bed in case she's fainting again, she skillfully folded up her skirt and sat upright, then lowered her head on the bed with three fingers.

『…Umm, that.』

『My friend told me that this is the official etiquette in this country.』

『But that.』

『Of course, I would not do this in a formal setting. I'm only doing this to someone close to me.』

Hmm.

Oh well.

If she knew that much, she wouldn't do it in the middle of town.

But I feel like something's a little bit off.

Not that I care.

『Don't worry, I'm only responding to rescue requests. I would have done the same thing no matter who it was.』

『...Even so, even if it had to end up like that... and I was the only one to escape first.』

『Ahh』

Well, of course she would feel guilty...I'd feel the same if I was in her position.

And the other person is a little girl, right?

What's more, the cause was a monster that wasn't physically impossible to defeat.

『In that regards.』

『I'm not short of money, but if you really have to, I'd be happy if it's a reasonable amount.』

『But.』

『Of course, it has to be the normal currency in this country, if it's not...』

If it's not?

……Hmm.

『I'd be troubled.』

『Troubled……fufu.』

Oh, that made her laugh.

This girl is the type who keeps her distance from others, which is why she laughs so shyly.

This is a first for me.

By the way, Ruru-san has a very energetic way of laughing.

Emi-san... normally seems like a serious older sister, but when she's a pervert she laughs like a pervert.

Kushima-san is the type who isn't good at laughing, and she always turns her back and smiles secretly.

Now that i think about it, everyone are all different.

Well, this girl is a foreigner after all.

Me?

I wonder... how I look like.

It feels like my facial muscles aren't moving very much though.

◇

『I see, a guide?』

『Yes. The dungeons in my country are generally of a high level, or rather, it is because of this that we became independent, and the structure is a little different from other countries... so.』

Oh, so the dungeons are different for each country, or rather, each region.

Come to think of it, when I took a quick look at the streams overseas, the atmosphere was quite different.

I'd like to dive those dungeons one day...

So.

The reason Lili-san came to Japan was to secretly meet up with a friend.

Apparently, she actually wanted to come once she was able to speak Japanese, but she couldn't wait and was like, 『I'm going to learn on the spot!』

Apparently speaking Japanese isn't that difficult, and since she's a girl, she likes to talk, so I think it makes sense.

She tried hard to speak Japanese during our conversation, but she seemed frustrated, and in the end we continued speaking in a foreign language.

I'd say she's great, or rather, she's a very proactive person.

It's called vitality.

It's what I need the most.

『So, what's your level? Can I ask that?』

『...If I remember correctly, according to the Association's calculations, it's 25.』

『Hee?』

『Ah, cute...kyuu.』

Lili-san was dizzy again so I gently put her down and dropped her head onto the pillow.

This girl is physically weak...but her level is really high.

Ah, she's probably tired from the dungeon.

Level 25.

It's much higher than Ruru-san and Emi-san...and even higher than my previous self.

Numerically speaking, it's almost double.

You see, the limit for an average person is around 10, and an incredibe person can reach 20, so this kid is a true genius.

This is bad.

This is seriously bad.

The world is wide.

Or maybe it's the average level of the area this girl lives in?

But I'm also confused by my ★10, so I don't know which one is stronger.

I think if she's properly equipped and prepared, and her companions are properly prepared, she should be able to reach the 250th floor without any problems.

Well, a lot of things were going wrong at the time because of that Curse-sama...

◇

『……Haa!』

『Ah, you woke up.』

I was still feeling pretty tired so I was having fun lounging around in bed when it seemed like Lili-san is waking up.

I wonder if she's okay if she keeps fainting like this... Should I call a nurse?

『...Haru-sama, your hair.』

『Eh? Ah, it's quite messy.』

To be honest, Lili-san's hair is pretty messy too.

But I know it's not good to point out things like that about girls, so I keep quiet.

『...We-well. I was planning to thank you in other way, but...』

『Oh, then please.』

『Hee?』

『Eh, you said you would do it, right?』

『Eh… yes…』

It seemed like she was going to do my hair, so I sat with my back facing her.

Girls love messing with other people's hair.

It's okay because I'm used to it with Ruru-san and Kushima-san.

It's nice to know things like this in advance.

『……………………………………』

By the way, Emi-san surprisingly doesn't do things like this.

I guess she gets excited when she touches me, so she's controlling it with a will of steel.

How admirable.

You can trust a pervert who can control themself.

If it's a man?

Men are a bit... I'm not happy about it in the first place, and also, as a girl, doing this with a man a bit, you know...?

『…Well, then, excuse me…』

『Yes, please.』

I guess it's not okay to say, 『This will be enough as a thank you.』

I was only helping out because it was my responsibility as someone going into the dungeon.

I mean, it seems that all the people I've helped up until now have somehow found out about me... I really wonder why... it's scary... Apparently the agency has received thank you letters, boxes of sweets, and all sorts of things.

Wouldn't it be better if everyone was more relaxed?

I was helped many times when I was a beginner too.

Even if you're an mid rank explorer, you're still going to make mistakes.

Look, there's even an high rank explorerer like Lili-san.

Ah, but when that happened I would apologize profusely on the spot and buy them a meal.

If they're adults, it's generally okay to serve them alcohol.

Adults are easy.

『……mmu……』

『Hau?! …Kyuu.』

Oh.

The way she inserted the comb was gentler than Ruru-san and the others, so I made a strange noise.

My voice just now was a little naughty.

At that moment, I heard a thud and a fall behind me.

◇

『…This time…』

『Are you feeling okay?』

『Y-Yes, more importantly.』

『Is it okay if you don't slee-』

『Let's continue fixing your hair!!』

『Ah, okay.』

This time, the recovery took less than a minute.

No matter what, high level people are different.

『…fu, mm…』

『……! …!』

Ah, that feels good.

I wonder why it feels so good to have your head stroked, hugged, or combed.

I think I understand what Nadepo means now.

The partner is limited to girls, though.

『...Such long hair...beautiful...fragrant...』

『This hair looks pretty good even without any care.』

It's strange, isn't it?

I guess it probably has to do with my body's constitution and the fact that I can tolerate alcohol.

After all, on the first night after I was brought here from that apartment, when I got out of the bath and roughly dried my hair with a damp bath towel and then roughly dried it with a hair dryer, Kushima-san fainted.

Wow, it was the first time I saw someone fainting and it really scared me.

She started asking me things like "Why are you doing that!?" but I shut her up by saying "But I've been doing this every day for the past year."

Once it dries, my hair will be nice and clean, so it should be fine.

Right?

『...sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff sniff』

『Ahー』

Itchy.

I see, this girl is similar to Ruru-san.

Ruru-san also combs my hair while sniffing it until her face turns red and she faintes from lack of oxygen.

I understand how you feel.

When I'm bored, I can easily spend an hour or two messing with my hair.

"--Haru-chan!!!"

"Like I said, Fukaya-san..."

"Oh, Ruru-san and Kushima-san."

I was startled when the door slammed open.

The sound made me flinch, but I somehow knew what was going on from detection.

"Haru-chan what is that girl doing why is she touching you Haru-chan?"

"This is Lili-san. From the dungeon."

"But it's my job to comb Haru-chan's hair it's always me."

"Oh, then please, Ruru-san. Thank you, Lili-san."

"Ah, okay! Leave it to me! I'll take care of everything about Haru-chan!"

『Hii…O-okay…』

I take the comb from Lili-san... Oh, this is kind of stylish, Lili-san's sense really shines through... When I hand it to Ruru-san, the scary feeling disappears and she starts sniffing it.

Yeah.

This kid is surprisingly easy.

Because she's always been the one being looked after, she wants to take care of me like a younger sister, since I'm younger physically and have less experience as a girl.

She told me every day, "I'll take care of you, Haru-chan, forever."

It would probably be fine if she just came every day to have my hair done and choose my clothes.
