About an hour passed.
The rain had stopped.
Because we had kept embracing each other for a long period, our bodies were warmed up.
Our clothes seemed like they were almost dry, but I was on the verge of crying.
I received a shock from being useless at the most essential time.
This shock is severe no matter how many times or when I experience it.
This time it's not a woman I've paid in a brothel or some passing adventurer.
It's an especially harsh feeling.
It seems Sylphy received a shock as well.
Even so it seems the shock Sylphy had was a bit less.
While jesting a bit, continuing with a bitter smile, she was depreciating her own body.
"It's not Rudi's fault. I, look, my chest is small, and I have no charm.."
"No, Sylphy's body is very charming. I'm very sorry. It's been like this since three years ago."
"Ru..Rudi?"
I started to talk about myself.
I talked about everything.
I faced my first experience three years ago, since then, the fact that I had become useless.
And then, for the sake of searching for a method to cure that, I came to the Magic University.
In the end I was unable to find it and it came down to today.
"I've caused Sylphy to feel ashamed. I'm very sorry."
I prostrated myself.
There's no way there's a problem with Sylphy's body.
Rather it's a huge stimulation.
Certainly her chest is small, but with her slender limbs, and thin hips.
It's not like the balance is bad.
It was like you pulled the image of a shojo straight out just like that, from directly in the center of my strike zone.
In the first place, during these past three years, the only one who has allowed me to stand up is just Sylphy.
There's no way I could have any dissatisfaction with her.
It's just that I'm cowardly.
"Ru..Rudi, don't say something like that. It's not a shame, go back to how you were."
Sylphy let out a pitiful voice.
I myself feel a pretty pitiful mood coming on.
"I really want to return to how I was very much as well, but nothing can be done about this."
"Not like that, your tone, stop with the honorifics."
Sylphy's tears started to flow again.
I panicked and wiped those tears.
"Sorry. I was just a bit upset."
I'm full of apologies.
Here recently I've used nothing but honorifics so I can't help it.
That's why, I end up using them going with the flow.
"...But, I always used honorifics up until now, isn't it fine?"
"It's fine but... Rudi's honorifics, you can feel a sense of distance from hearing them."
Is that how it is?
It's the first time I've heard that.
Could it be that, Eris and Ruijerd felt something like that as well?
Possibly Zanoba as well... come to think of it, that guy hasn't used very many honorifics at all.
"From here on out, honorifics are prohibited."
"Yes."
"Honorifics again."
"That much should be fine right?"
"Fufu..I guess so."
With that conversation somehow or other the atmosphere got better.
However, it's been quite a while since I stopped with the honorifics.
Thinking about it, I feel like I've always used honorifics since I came to this world.
