Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret - Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret chapter 43

43. A Sense of Luck?

Going home…

Although it wasn’t very clear why Wuyue took the initiative to suggest this and her smile had become so… inscrutable?

But, to get to the bottom of it, Yuyu decided to go along with her.

After all, in his current “ordinary person” state, he couldn’t resist much, could he?

Moreover… he had a feeling that this matter was somewhat related to him.

————

After returning home.

Wuyue didn’t immediately ask them any questions; instead, she left them in the living room and ran off to the kitchen… saying she was going to prepare some food for them, to replenish their energy.

Listening to the sound of the knife hitting the cutting board in the kitchen, which was crisper and brighter than usual, Yuyu couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed.

“……”

“Yuyu……”

At this moment, Baiyu, who was sitting next to him, sighed and began to speak:

“Sorry, back then, I might have been a bit too impulsive, so I couldn’t control myself… and did something like that?”

Knowing that her statement sounded a bit strange, Baiyu decided to get straight to the point after finishing this sentence:

“In short, it should be because Wuyue saw me giving you a ‘knee pillow’, which led her to feel a bit dissatisfied with both me and you, so—”

“I will keep a proper distance from you in the future.”

“After all… if I intervene in the matters of you two lovebirds, then something terrible will surely happen afterward. I didn’t think this through, I’m sorry.”

The two of them just needed to live their lives together peacefully; she… shouldn’t interfere.

“……”

That statement was a bit subtle, wasn’t it?

This inevitably reminded Youyu of those melodramatic TV dramas or anime plots he had watched before. Hmm… the situation was surprisingly similar!

However, there was one point where she had made a mistake, and he needed to correct it.

After all… in the future, he had to extract negative emotions from these two.

Although there would definitely be dangers, risks and rewards coexist, right…

“…… It feels like you’ve misunderstood something. Let me clarify a point: my relationship with Wuyue is indeed that we live together, but the reality is not as you think.”

Taking a deep breath, Youyu glanced at Wuyue in the kitchen, turned his head, and said to her:

“We are not in the kind of romantic relationship you imagine; that needs to be corrected.”

“……”

Upon hearing Youyu’s words, Baiyu was taken aback for a moment, then furrowed her brows and asked him:

“So what kind of relationship do you have now? Living together, it can’t be…”

“Mm! It’s a ‘family’ relationship!”

Nodding, Youyu affirmed.

“Even beyond ‘couple’, right?”

“……”

“You mean, you see her as a sister?”

“Of course! Ever since he picked me up, I decided to treat her with the same attitude I would have towards my parents, after all, she is my lifesaver…”

Youyu nodded, appearing as if it were only natural.

“But then again, thinking about it, that seems a bit impractical, so I decided to treat her as a sister.”

“……”

“That’s somewhat absurd.”

To be honest… after Youyu said that, Baiyu was really confused about their relationship now…

Hmm, although Youyu explained it clearly, how could she not overthink it? For example, why did he refuse to acknowledge that he and Wuyue were a “couple” and only accepted the term “family”?

Logically, shouldn’t everything have fallen into place by now? They should have long since reached a conclusion, right?

So, out of curiosity, Baiyu began to inquire:

“Although I did hear Wuyue mention you back then… I don’t know much about it. Can you elaborate? How did you treat Wuyue during the time you spent together?”

“Cough cough! If you’re asking about this, I’m not sleepy anymore!”

Hearing Bai Yu’s question, You Yu coughed a few times and began to speak:

“At that time, it was…”

……

……

……

“Click!”

At this moment, in the kitchen, Wu Yue turned around after finishing the last dish, looking out at the two figures obscured by the translucent door.

Although the light was unclear due to the door’s obstruction, Wu Yue could still vaguely see and feel from the sounds coming from that side—You Yu and Bai Yu, their conversation now was much better than before.

And they seemed very happy.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of comfort and joy within her heart.

“It seems that after this incident, Bai Yu can get along well with You Yu now…”

How delightful, how delightful indeed…

Moreover, she had never seen You Yu in such a carefree manner, talking with a companion.

But… he could show this side of himself in front of Bai Yu.

“…”

She should also thank Bai Yu for allowing her to see this side of You Yu.

She genuinely… felt happy.

With this thought, she set down the knife she had been gripping tightly and picked up the dishes, smiling as she walked outside.

……

“You Yu, Bai Yu… I’ve already prepared dinner for you! Come and eat soon?”

“Or should I say, maybe I shouldn’t interrupt you, and wait until you’re done talking?”

“Ah! Wu Yue, you’re done already!”

Hearing Wu Yue’s words, You Yu reacted, looking at her with a smile, and replied with a smile of his own:

“Thank you, Wu Yue… This time we got hurt, and we still have to trouble you to take care of us.”

As he spoke, he walked over and placed his hand on Wu Yue’s head.

“Next time, let me cook for you, okay? After all, I’ve been a bit lazy lately… haha, I’ve just been taking you out to eat.”

“Next time, I promise I’ll make your favorite dish!”

“…Eh? Ah… okay! Th-thank you… You Yu…”

After experiencing a “head pat” and hearing You Yu’s words directed at her, Wu Yue, who had just been smiling, suddenly became flustered, her face turning red as she “surrendered” to the moment.

“…”

—

Seeing this scene beside her, Bai Yu felt a mix of emotions within.

It seemed like she had narrowly escaped a calamity, didn’t it?

“After all, having done something like that, even Wu Yue might find it a bit hard to accept…”

“If there’s a next time… it’s better not to do that.”

She could still see Wu Yue’s feelings.

So… if this deep-seated sense of “luck” were to continue, it felt like things would turn for the worse.

As for what that sense of luck really was… her intuition told her that it wasn’t something she should delve into.
