Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret - Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret chapter 46

46. What do you think of me?

“Ha… ha… Yuyou, wait a moment! Didn’t we just finish exploring the aquarium? Where are we going now?”

Breathless and exhausted, Wuyue said to Yuyou.

Hearing her words, Yuyou turned to look at her, curious:

“Huh? Are you already tired? At the beginning, you seemed even more excited than I was! We’ve only been to a few places… is it really that tiring?”

“Ugh… how can you say that! I never expected this place to be even bigger than I imagined!”

Wuyue couldn’t help but complain after hearing Yuyou’s words.

But… it wasn’t really Yuyou’s fault; more accurately, it was her own issue…

Just a moment ago, when Yuyou said, “Let’s play for an entire day,” she couldn’t express how happy she was! Without hesitation, she agreed, but at that moment… she hadn’t realized the seriousness of the situation.

When they actually started to “play,” she discovered that this mall was just too vast, so vast that… it felt like they might not be able to cover it all.

At that time, she was simply too excited, a bit out of her mind, so she said to Yuyou:

“Since you promised to play with me for the whole day! Then we have to walk around this place all day long! Until we go home at night!”

“If you don’t follow through with that… well, there might be… some extra punishments, okay?”

“That’s easy to say… but can you really play for that long?”

“Hmph! Of course! And this promise was your idea… if we don’t make good use of it, that would be such a waste!”

Because of that conversation, she and Yuyou truly spent an entire day wandering around!

She didn’t know what was going on with this mall; it was really, really big! Walking here felt like running a marathon… of course, that was just an exaggeration.

In any case, she had made up her mind!

Taking a deep breath, Wuyue looked at Yuyou, trying to muster some determination, and said:

“Yuyou! Let’s hurry home now! Or we can go somewhere else to rest! Anywhere but here!”

“Hmm… actually, I still quite like the way you used to be so happy, you know? How about we walk a bit more? Just think of it as exercise~”

“!!… Ah! Don’t say so much! No matter how much I like it… it doesn’t matter! And what you’re saying isn’t charming at all!”

When she heard the first half of Youyu’s sentence, Wuyue’s face turned red; by the time she finished the second half, she was blushing even more.

Why is he suddenly making this kind of “joke” at a time like this! It’s not funny at all, okay!

“And I really don’t understand! Why are you still like this? Aren’t you tired at all?”

“Well~ maybe it’s just that everyone has a different constitution, sorry~”

Seeing Wuyue’s expression that looked like she was about to get angry, Youyu felt that he should probably stop, so he smiled, walked in front of her, then turned his back to her, looking over his shoulder and said:

“Then, as an apology, how about I carry you?”

“After all, you’ve been walking all day; no matter how you look at it, you must be tired both physically and mentally, right? And you’ve been laughing for so long… it’s a pity you won’t be laughing after this.”

“Youyu—! I already told you, don’t bring this up again!”

“Seriously… I was just a bit touched a moment ago…”

“So? Do you want me to carry you or not?”

A straightforward question.

“…”

Faced with Youyu’s direct question, Wuyue was taken aback, unconsciously turning her head away, crossing her arms, closing her eyes, and starting to think about something.

After a while, she sighed, then turned her head back, a bit shyly, and said:

“Fine, fine! After all, if it weren’t for you bringing me here today, I wouldn’t be like this, so… this is your deserved punishment!”

“Mm mm mm! That’s good, that’s good.”

Knowing that Wuyue had agreed, Youyu didn’t hesitate at all; he directly squatted down, stretched out his hands, and showed off his broad back.

Seeing Youyu like this, Wuyue felt a bit shy. Just as she was about to step forward, she suddenly remembered something, fell silent for a moment, and said:

“But… Youyu, are you really okay? You’ve been walking for a long time today! Although you look fine now, it’s just… you don’t want me to worry, right?”

Wuyue couldn’t help but recall the things that had happened before. After Youyu got hurt, he would basically hide the fact that he was injured and wouldn’t tell her.

If it weren’t for the fact that she still had a bit of magical girl ability even when not transformed, she probably wouldn’t have noticed Youyu’s injuries.

So now, she was worried about this.

“Oh! About that! You don’t need to worry!”

Probably guessing what Wuyue was concerned about, Youyu comforted her:

“After all, if I really were tired, I wouldn’t be able to hide it! Right? Whether someone is tired or not will show in their spirit and expression!”

“Look at me! Do I look tired? If I were tired, would I still come to tease you? Hmm… or do you want me to tell another ‘joke’ for you to believe it?”

“…”

“!!”

—

And just after Yuyou finished speaking, the next moment, a “heavyweight” object pressed down on his back. Feeling the pressure behind him, Yuyou couldn’t help but reflect internally, just as he had in the past, as he grasped Wuyue’s legs and placed them on either side of his waist.

Once her arms wrapped around his neck, Yuyou effortlessly lifted her up and walked down the road.

Along the way, neither of them spoke a word; they simply walked in silence, and this noisy day had, in this rare moment, quieted down.

“Not bad…”

Feeling Wuyue, who seemed to have fallen asleep on his back, Yuyou couldn’t help but smile.

Indeed, his plan was not wrong! Well… perhaps it was more of a happy accident! By spending the day out, he had managed to tire Wuyue out, and in doing so, she had no energy left to dwell on those twisted thoughts!

After all, in recent times, Wuyue had provided him with a significant amount of negative emotions. While this was a good thing in some respects, on the other hand, it might not be so beneficial.

Thus, his purpose in taking Wuyue out today, aside from her own request, was also to alleviate the negative emotions she carried.

He certainly didn’t want anything to happen to Wuyue so soon. Besides not wanting to cross any lines that would lead to her troubles, it was also for the sake of long-term development and, more importantly, for his own safety.

Fortunately, today’s plan had been successfully completed, and now all that was left was to return home and—

“Yuyou…”

However, at some point, Wuyue on his back suddenly woke up.

It was unclear whether she was still dazed from sleep or if she had taken this opportunity to voice her true feelings.

In any case, she leaned close to Yuyou’s ear and said a few things—

“A long time ago, you said I was your savior.”

“Later… you said we were friends.”

“But now… I can’t figure it out. Are we still friends?”

“Yuyou, how do you see me?”
