Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

[El's POV: ]

"Let go of me. I can eat on my own." 

"Of course, you can~. Still, let me feed my cute little Nessy."

Things calmed down quicker than I expected, but we had fun. She was cute.

"I don't like this. At least let me sit on my own."

"This is good though. You like it this way, I know."

Some of them were done with their food so they were just chatting between them, or were looking at the two of us…

My Nes was sitting on my lap and I was feeding her the special rice, and she was eating it even with a tearful face and watery nose. 

Which was cute of course~!

"Does anyone want anything else or should I start preparing dessert?"

"Ah, I am full already. I ate so much of that… whatever it was, that I don't think I could eat anything else now."

"Same for me. I am full. So much so that if someone chokes me, I will pass out with a smile."

"…"

"He wanted to say thanks to Lucifer. He liked the food."

"Oho~?"

This was the first time Cathy spoke up on behalf of Rex who was lost for words after hearing that shit Ras just said. 

'Which is a good sign!'

"Hehehehe-kekekeke…"

"E-El? Don't laugh creepily like that."

"Ah, sorry baby."

I was stealthy with the way I laughed, but since Nes was on my lap, she heard that cute laugh of mine and knew instantly how I was onto something no good.

Oh! Right…

"Cathy, you will Have to eat the dessert this bastard prepares. They are too heavenly to miss out on. Especially in a rare moment like this one. 

They will taste especially delightful~."

There were few days in a year where he was in this specific kind of condition so, right now was the peak time to taste one of his desserts. Even if they weren't going to be one of his special ones.

They will love it~.

"Hmmm… if you say so, then I will have a taste of it. But don't expect me to eat too much. Or else someone else will have to carry me to my dorm."

"Hehe. We have a prince to carry the princess. You have nothing to worry~."

They were friends, for now. 

Yes, they were friends and not childhood acquaintances. Their relationship had progressed to friendship since they were eating with each other and openly showing their emotions while sharing food, so, this was friendship.

And, isn't it common for friends to Princess Carry each other?

'Very common, right?'

Totalllllllly platonic.

"What, no. Jeeex. I have Helen if I do need anyone."

"You prefer being dragged to your place by your swan instead? I didn't know you liked it rough, Cathy. That's quite a new piece of information."

"Yes, that's right-… wait, what does rough mean?"

"Prffffff! Ahem! Ahem! Apologies."

Cathy had no idea what it meant when someone used a 'rough' word in this kind of context. But as a fellow commoner who had lived with the common people and knew exactly how each simple word could mean the most naughty things, Lily knew what I meant.

And Ras did as well, but he was good at hiding his expressions.

"Hehehe, you will know someday. For now, Lucy. Come eat something before you start preparing the dessert."

"Hmm? But I am not hungry right-"

"Come. Sit. Eat."

"…alright."

"Good. Want me to feed you as well-"

"No thanks."

He didn't like being fed, lol. Not even by me… not at least when our 'friends' were watching.

"Alright. Your loss though."

Being fed by me personally was an honor most of the people in this school wouldn't want to let go of.

Actually, many in this Worldline wouldn't want to let go of this chance.

[[ No one wants to be fed by someone like you, master. ]]

[[ "Shut up jealous bastard that never eats without my lap. You, that Raz bastard, and my Friday are the ones that would never want anything other than me." ]]

[[ That, certainly, is not true. I can assure you that much. ]]

[[ "Of course. Say that while looking straight into my eyes and I will believe that." ]]

[[ ...stupid master. ]]

We had this big round table right under our favorite tree where not only all of us could eat, but even the smaller families could sit down in the inner empty part.

So, my bastard Cary, cute Anna, and little Karma were sitting there. Playing with each other.

And Karma liked playing with Anna more than my bastard, which just showed how smart that little white turtle was~.

[ "Sam! Do you want anything!" ]

Sam was with Helen a little away here. 

The two were observing flowers like they usually do, hehe.

'They are cute as well.'

[ "Oh no. I am fine. Miss Helen says she doesn't want anything either. And, she said thanks for the food!" ]

Lucy made something for everyone today, including the familiars. Sam included.

And they liked it.

They loved it actually.

And everyone present at this table was happy.

"So, everyone…"

Which meant it was the right time to bring up the thing that has been on my mind since we talked with the headmaster.

"What are your plans for the break we will have after the exams?"

"El?"

We were going to have a week-long break after these tests were over so I was planning to take Nes, Eva, and Friday to 'that place' but now that we have these cute bastards as well, taking them with us would help them grow a few levels as well. 

"Hmm… I was planning to spend the break time reading some books. But, why ask El?"

"Does Miss Auriel need us for anything?"

"I… was going to be busy with some work; however, if Miss Auriel needs us for something, we would be happy to help as well."

"A, no no. It's not some work or anything. And don't be burdened thinking you will have to do something for us for the good food you just ate. 

It wasn't the best this brother of mine could do anyway. You have much to see of his culinary skills. 

I just asked since we were going to go to a fun place and I believe you all would like to come with us as well."

"A fun place?"

"What do you mean by that, Miss Auriel?"

"You were going to go somewhere again?" Others were wondering what kind of fun place I might be talking about, but Nes now had a stunned expression.

"We all are going this time, silly. You as well."

"Really~?"

"Yes."

She thought we would leave her again, my cute Nes. 

'She really doesn't want us to go on some long trip again, haaa… she has become too attached to us.'

But she did well by herself these past few months. Which means she can take care of herself even if we aren't around.

Which was a good thing since she wasn't going to be with us for long.

"But, what is this fun place you are talking about, Miss Auriel?"

Ras asked that question with a straight face, but I could tell he was uncertain right now.

He must have wanted to farm some EXP in his free time, however, he couldn't do that if he wasn't with us.

Or so he thought.

"It's more fun to keep that fun place a secret, so I won't say much about it. However, I will say one thing. 

It's a place you will have more fun in your free time than reading books all day, or thinking about some things you mostly always think about. 

Go on dates, or do some tasks you have been putting off since a while back, like farming.

It's a place that will be fun for all of us, so I will be happy if everyone can join us."

And if they do join us… they will have fun doing things that they were the best at as well.

'And find things that they were only supposed to find much later. Most of the time, after losing something precious to them.'

All of it was unnecessary if I say so myself, so, they can do fine without it as well.

'They can be better, get on the right path, and see what they were supposed to after experiencing falls that were too harsh for them at the moment.'

So, that place, our favorite place on this planet, would be the best place to trigger their growth.

'And perhaps also the place that they will enjoy in true meaning.'
