Admiration Is the Farthest Distance from Understanding / What a Trap!
Mikaela didn't want the Number Two 'Ella' to make a move. The reason was simple: even if the other party deliberately tricked him, he would accept it.
Having spent so much time and effort to trick her, Mikaela felt she should fall into the trap herself.
After knocking, Asagami Fujino came out and saw Ryougi Shiki and Mikaela, whose eyes flashed with surprise and delight.
"We're here." Ryougi Shiki walked in as if she were returning to her own home. Asagami Fujino's room was very simple in structure, and it looked as if it was unfurnished.
However, the room was very clean overall, and there was not a single piece of trash in sight.
Both the table and chairs were polished to Gilgamesh shine, making them look very comfortable.
"Welcome." Asagami Fujino looked at Mikaela, a blush rising on her fair face. She stepped aside, wanting Mikaela to come in as soon as possible.
"This is troublesome."
Mikaela came in, saw the shoe-changing area, and silently took off her shoes.
The Ryougi Shiki; it seems this isn't her first time visiting Asagami Fujino's room.
"Here you go." Asagami Fujino took out an extra pair of slippers from the shoe rack next to her and placed them in front of Mikaela, looking every bit like a doting wife.
"Your swimsuit." Mikaela crushed the card, and the last swimsuit jumped out. Asagami Fujino's swimsuit was not much different from Mikaela's swimsuit. Both of them had a pleated skirt on the bottom and a regular bikini on the top.
"Thanks."
In front of Mikaela, Asagami Fujino always remained shy. She seemed afraid to look Mikaela in the eye, silently hugging her swimsuit to her chest, and then quickly said, "I'll go get you some water."
"I'll just have regular tea," Ryougi Shiki said in advance as she sat down on a chair.
The rooms in Chaldea are equipped with a range of daily necessities, including water dispensers and refrigerators.
Asagami Fujino took out black tea and milk from the refrigerator, which were Mikaela's favorite drinks.
"..." Mikaela raised an eyebrow. He didn't say anything, but just silently watched Asagami Fujino's busy work.
After Mikaela's 'milk tea' and Ryougi Shiki's regular tea were brewed, Asagami Fujino stopped what she was doing, sat down on a chair, and calmly looked at Mikaela.
"It tastes good," Mikaela said, taking a sip of her milk tea.
"After all, I've been practicing for over a decade," Ryougi Shiki said.
Asagami Fujino, who had almost calmed down, blushed again.
"By the way, I have something to tell you." Ryougi Shiki wasn't going to drink tea; she went straight to the point. "He wants to be your 'fake couple' when we're at the beach. Would you agree?"
There was no foreplay, and Ryougi Shiki wasn't one to fuss over Asagami Fujino was stunned the moment she opened her mouth, as if she hadn't expected it at all.
"Really?!" Asagami Fujino said excitedly, looking at Mikaela as if hoping for an answer.
"Hmm...that's right." Mikaela nodded. He had been quite resistant at first, but after seeing Asagami Fujino's appearance, his resistance disappeared without a trace.
It is impossible to gain recognition if one's efforts are not seen by others.
With Ryougi Shiki's help, Asagami Fujino's secret efforts were seen by Mikaela.
At this moment, Mikaela would naturally not have any thoughts of 'rejection'.
Even though Asagami Fujino was wearing a kimono, Mikaela and Ryougi Shiki could still see the rise and fall of her chest, indicating that she was in a state of extreme excitement.
"Um, I, I, I."
Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Asagami Fujino was speaking somewhat incoherently at this moment.
"I've never been in a relationship before," Mikaela said, looking at Asagami Fujino in a gentle tone. "I have no experience, so please forgive me if I offend anyone."
"I... I'm the one who... I have absolutely no experience. Um... please forgive me if I said anything wrong," Asagami Fujino said rather humbly.
She genuinely had absolutely no idea what being in a relationship meant.
Ryougi Shiki, standing to the side, smiled without saying a word. She simply shook her head, finished her tea, and calmly said, "I'll be going now. You can do as you please. Besides, there's only a little time left before the beach activities, so why don't you two 'cultivate' your relationship now?"
After saying that, Ryougi Shiki directly entered spirit form and disappeared from the room.
Asagami Fujino activated the room's defense mode the instant Ryougi Shiki Ryougi Shiki, preventing other Servant from barging in.
If any Servant dares to enter at this crucial moment, Asagami Fujino feels that the level of her Mystic Eyes' power might very well increase by one level!
"You're very nervous."
Mikaela noticed that Asagami Fujino was nervous, so he asked her to sit next to him.
"Yes, I'm very nervous. I don't know how to describe this feeling." Asagami Fujino sat next to Mikaela, one hand on her chest, where she could clearly feel her heart pounding.
The heartbeat was very fast, and my brain involuntarily began to think about what I should say next and what my next action should be.
How exactly should feelings be cultivated?
A moment of silence fell over the scene, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
"That." X2
Mikaela and Asagami Fujino spoke at the same time, but after exchanging a glance, they fell silent.
Neither of them were fools; they naturally understood what the other wanted to say, so they immediately fell silent, hoping the other would speak.
After remaining silent for nearly ten seconds, Mikaela finally couldn't hold back and said, "Your swimsuit is about the same size as mine."
"Um..." Asagami Fujino her head, her face flushed, unsure how to answer.
Mikaela was at a loss for words. He had a naturally cold personality and always spoke in a simple and unpretentious manner.
"I never thought you would accept a fake relationship."
Finally, it was Asagami Fujino who spoke up. She raised her head and looked at Mikaela with her beautiful eyes, saying, "I thought you and that friend who was also dressed as a maid were 'lovers'."
"A friend who also wears maid outfits? You mean the Shopkeeper's Daughter?" Mikaela looked at Asagami Fujino with some surprise and asked, "Why would you think that?"
"Because you are very close, you live together and travel together."
Asagami Fujino looked at Mikaela sincerely and said, "I'm very jealous of her."
Chapter 528 Worship is the furthest distance from understanding
Jealousy, so jealousy. Although Asagami Fujino would usually give the Shopkeeper's Daughter a faint smile, she was still very jealous that the other could freely accompany Mikaela.
In Asagami Fujino's eyes, Mikaela is the sky, an untouchable being, incredibly beautiful, powerful, and dazzling.
Originally, Asagami Fujino thought that she would be easily satisfied as long as she stayed quietly by the other person's side, but now she suddenly realized that she was a bad woman.
She wants more...
Inside the room, Asagami Fujino was thinking about how to get closer to Mikaela.
Mikaela sat in a chair, contemplating how to get out of the room, despite saying she wanted to get closer to her.
But he had no idea he should do that. He might as well leave quickly and wait until the day of the beach activity to "date".
As a single person, Mikaela has no idea how to build relationships with people; his experience in love is a complete blank.
The most fatal flaw is that Mikaela doesn't have that kind of 'desire'; he doesn't lust Asagami Fujino's body and appearance.
When men are attracted to women, besides wanting to continue the family line, they are usually only attracted to her body and looks.
Mikaela possesses both of these qualities: she is feminine, has a better figure than Asagami Fujino, and her appearance has been openly praised by Aozaki Touko and Ryougi Shiki.
"That."
Asagami Fujino spoke up, and she knew the atmosphere was becoming a little awkward.
According to the book, when a man and a woman are alone in a room, the atmosphere becomes ambiguous, and the man will intentionally or unintentionally approach the woman and take advantage of her.
Asagami Fujino was also looking forward to that scene, but Mikaela sat there like a block of wood, as if she didn't know anything about taking advantage of her.
"What's wrong?" Mikaela turned her head to look at Asagami Fujino.
"Can we hold hands?" Asagami Fujino asked, mustering her courage. Her face was already very red.
Why do I always feel like a scoundrel, trying to take advantage of Mikaela?
"..." Mikaela looked at Asagami Fujino, a strange look flashing in his eyes. Why did he only say that holding hands would make him blush?
"Can."
Mikaela felt he should take the initiative, so he reached out and held Asagami Fujino's small hand.
"So soft." Asagami Fujino felt that Mikaela's hand was very soft. With just a slight squeeze, she felt as if she was touching a cotton candy.
Although Asagami Fujino isn't a hand fetishist, she suddenly feels that whether she is or not isn't important. The key is that the person she likes has perfect hands, and that's enough.
"Soft? I don't feel anything." Mikaela didn't feel much either. He held Asagami Fujino's hand, watching her breathing gradually quicken, and said helplessly, "Besides, you don't need to be so excited, do you?"
By Asagami Fujino, Mikaela could clearly feel that when the other person touched her, her body temperature and heart rate rose significantly.
This is an expression of extreme excitement; Irisviel had the same expression when she was with Emiya Kiritsugu.
However, compared to the excited Irisviel, Emiya Kiritsugu's expression at that moment was quite terrifying.
"Excuse me." Asagami Fujino thought that her 'perverted' behavior had frightened Mikaela, so she quickly suppressed her excitement and said, "I was too excited and did something rude. I'm really sorry."
"There's no need to apologize. I just feel that I should be the one who's excited."
Mikaela stood up and, holding Asagami Fujino's hand, slowly walked towards the bed.
"Huh?" Asagami Fujino was somewhat surprised.
"I'm a boy, so although I don't understand matters of the heart, logically speaking, I should be the one to take the initiative." Mikaela sat on the soft bed and patted the side next to her to let the other person sit down.
Asagami Fujino sat obediently next to Mikaela and continued to listen.
"However, I don't know much about relationships, and I don't have any expectations for physical intimacy."
Mikaela looked at Asagami Fujino and said in a very calm tone, "I am not curious about 'unknown' things. Most teenage boys are curious about women, probably because they know nothing about women."
"And me..."
Mikaela crushed the card and easily took out the Fountain of Youth. Without saying a word, he poured it on his head.
Under Asagami Fujino's surprised gaze, Mikaela transformed into a woman, shrugged, and said, "I can become a woman, so I don't feel any curiosity about other women."
"Moreover, I can transform into women of various eras, such as loli, young girl, mature woman, etc. Although I can't imitate temperament, the same body is enough."
As if introducing herself to Asagami Fujino, Mikaela grabbed the other's hand and placed it on her chest.
At this moment Asagami Fujino's body stiffened, and her previously steady breathing began to become rapid again, if not for the need to restrain herself in front of Mikaela.
She would even make 'sha, sha' sounds.
"It may sound strange, but I hope you can understand that I am a rather eccentric person."
Mikaela ignored Asagami Fujino's unusual state and calmly said, "My gender awareness is very vague. Although I subconsciously avoid looking at women's 'naked bodies,' that's the most basic respect for women. After all, I'm a boy now, and even if I could become a woman, I wouldn't deliberately look at them."
"If you want to win my heart, don't try to tempt me with 'fan service' like in anime or movies, because those things have no effect on me."
"Hmm..." Asagami Fujino felt the wonderful sensation coming from her palm, and knew that how could Mikaela, who possessed this body, possibly have 'desire' for women?
"Of course." Mikaela changed the subject, looking at Asagami Fujino, "Of course, since it's a date, I will 'try' to make myself like you, but if it really doesn't work out, it's fine to remain friends."
Because of Asagami Fujino's previous actions, Mikaela decided to give her a chance, just as Ryougi Shiki said, if she continued to suppress her feelings.
Who knows what terrible thing might happen.
To avoid that possibility, Mikaela will take the initiative to have a date with Asagami Fujino that isn't actually a date, so that the other person can see her clearly.
Someone once said that worship is the furthest distance from understanding.
Mikaela now believes that Asagami Fujino feels 'gratitude' and 'admiration' because she saved him back then.
As for love? Mikaela doesn't understand love.
Therefore, he will go along with Ryougi Shiki Asagami Fujino so that she can see his true self.
I believe that by then, the other party will have a clearer understanding of 'themselves' and will be able to make a real decision.
Chapter 529 What a trap!
Just as Mikaela and Asagami Fujino were having an open conversation and their relationship was gradually warming up.
Mikaela's communication device rang.
This made Asagami Fujino's face darken a bit, but she was already quite satisfied, so she didn't have much resentment.
Otherwise, if someone were to disturb them at this time, Asagami Fujino would definitely want to teach the disturber a lesson!
"What's wrong?" Mikaela turned on her communicator and, upon seeing that the caller was Olga Marie, pressed the call button. Olga Marie's Projection appeared in the room, and she said calmly, "Is something the matter?"
