I Have Crossed Over, but You Are The Second Week?

"There is no absolute concept in this 'castle'. If you want to, no matter how long you stay here, the moment you go out is still the time you come in."

"However, if you express it in terms of somatosensory time, it should be more than 10 hours. It really is a bit too long for a young man like you to sleep."

"...It's been so long since I slept, I'm sorry to make you worry."

Subaru was a little embarrassed, if it was only a few minutes or ten minutes, it would be better, but he actually slept on Echidna's lap for so long, and Echidna didn't seem to move at all during this period, Subaru understood just how much trouble he had caused.

After all, the current Subaru has experienced what it feels like to sleep with his arm on a girl's pillow for a night, and even if he doesn't say that, just waiting for him to wake up quietly, these ten hours can be said to be Very difficult.

"No, it's a lot of fun watching you sleep."

"It looks completely different from usual. How should I put it...it looks like a baby."

"Little baby?"

Subaru gave Echidna a strange look.

"I'll just accept it as a compliment."

"However, Echidna, why are you still sitting on the grass? Isn't there a table and chairs next to it? Although the ground here doesn't have the concept of being dirty, it's really more comfortable to sit on a chair."

"Indeed, compared to the lawn, of course a chair is more convenient, and you can also drink tea."

Echidna nodded, but she still didn't make any movement, and sat there with Subaru's pillow on her lap.

"Well, then..."

"—leg numb!"

"……Eh?"

"I mean, my leg is numb, and I can't actively move now."

"Well, because of me?"

"Can it be someone else? It seems that there are only two of us here."

Echidna, who was sitting on the ground, rolled her eyes and stretched out her hands towards Subaru.

"Hold me and sit there."

Seeing Echidna reach out to him for a hug, Subaru did not hesitate, and directly embraced Echidna in the form of a princess hug, but Echidna had just been picked up by him. There was an exclamation.

"Please be careful, my legs are still very sensitive, if you are too rough, it will be very uncomfortable!"

"It's as if I did something bad to you...and I don't have any other options if I don't hold you like this. It's impossible to lift you up like a child, right? "

"If possible, I would like to try it."

"Please let me go, I'm taller than you, but I'm not at the height where I can gather you together like a child."

Moreover, such movements are a bit too troublesome, even walking is difficult.

"However, Echidna, you are surprisingly light. It seems that you don't even have 50 kilograms?"

"A girl's body is a secret. Anyway, I am also a beautiful girl who lived to 19 years old. It is impossible for a girl of this age to be particularly heavy."

"The saying of longevity 19 is unexpectedly heavy, and it is inversely proportional to your weight."

If Echidna hadn't mentioned it, Subaru wouldn't have realized it yet.

Although the Echidna who existed in front of his eyes was an elderly person who had existed for more than 400 years, her actual age was only two years older than Subaru.

The so-called witch does not have a special advantage in lifespan, and Echidna herself is not the original witch, but inherits the existence of the witch factor.

Like she said, her age is only 19 years old.Because she died before her 20th birthday.

After realizing Echidna's age, Subaru realized how heavy Echidna was in his arms.

That is not from the weight of the body, but from the weight of the mind.When a young girl was at her best age, she didn't enjoy everything that should belong to her, but lost her precious life.

Even if she finally survived in the form of a soul, she has been living in this 'castle', unable to take a step outside, nor can she see the vast world with her own eyes. Such a life and the residents living in the sanctuary what differences are there?

After all, she is living in a cage.

"...I will bring you back to life!"

As Subaru said that, Echidna showed a puzzled expression.

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

"Could it be that... have you finally noticed my beauty?

Echidna, who was held in Subaru's arms, gave a teasing smirk as she spoke.

"That's right, my legs, my feet, my breasts, my skin, everything about me is perfect. After all, there is no way to have fun in this 'castle'."

"That is to say, in order to really get me, are you going to resurrect me in the real world and regain my body?"

"...Are all witches as fanciful as you are!?"

Subaru hangs dead fish eyes, not gentle at all, and puts Echidna on her seat very roughly. This action makes Echidna let out a soft cry again, but this time Subaru is not Plan to apologize.

For such a woman who loves brain supplementation, it is better to let her brain calm down.

"What kind of person do you think I am? If it's really the kind of person you imagined, I just attacked you when you couldn't move."

Subaru bought himself a cup of tea unceremoniously, and sat across from Echidna.

"I just simply feel that when you die suddenly at your age, many things you want to do and the scenery you want to see have become regrets. This is really a pity."

"Plus you are Beatrice's 'Mother', and there is still a way to revive you, so there is no reason for me to let it go, right?"

"It's really unattractive to say this kind of thing. I still hope you say that you actually like me."

"I'm sure it's strange to say that."

Subaru rolled his eyes.

"Compared with these things, I think it's better to get to the point, that is, about the big rabbit."

"Big rabbits... well, the matter of many rabbits, this matter is very simple, but to be honest, I am also very troubled."

"troubled?"

Subaru tilted his head strangely, watching Echidna express his doubts.

"What's the trouble with this kind of thing, isn't it just how to solve the big rabbit?"

"Actually, it's okay not to rely on you for this kind of thing. After all, if it's a big rabbit, Otto knows how to deal with it."

"I just want to see from you, is there any more convenient way, if not, it doesn't matter."

"There is indeed a more convenient method."

Echidna nodded, and then said with a smile: "But, I will only talk about these things to those who attended my tea party. If it is someone who did not attend the tea party, I will not say anything. .”

"After all, I am the owner of this place anyway. The previous knee pillow is fine. After all, it is my compensation for you. But if you are dominated like this, I will be very troubled."

"...what to say is dominated."

Subaru sighed in distress.

"I always feel that you have something to say."

"Besides, I'm sitting here right now, so I should be a participant in your tea party, right?"

"Well... who knows~"

Echidna raised her eyebrows playfully, her eyes fell from Subaru's body to the cup filled with tea in front of him, the meaning contained in it can be said to be very obvious.

"Drink tea... okay, okay, I get it!"

After coming here three times and drinking three cups of tea, Subaru knew how much Echidna really liked to play tricks on people.After drinking the tea in the cup, which can be said to be self-inflicted, Subaru looked at Echidna again.

"Drinking all my bodily fluids so passionately... how should I put it, it's really embarrassing to you."

"Since you feel shy, don't let me drink it from the beginning!"

Although the taste is indeed good, but to directly drink other people's body fluids, even Subaru has a psychological threshold that needs to be crossed.

Even though Subaru knew that the "body fluids" mentioned here were different from the "body fluids" he understood in common sense, since it was given this name, it was hard not to be misunderstood.

"However, isn't there something wrong with today's tea?"

"It doesn't taste right?"

"Hmm... It feels like the smell is a bit weird."

Subaru rubbed his chin thoughtfully, carefully recalling the taste of the tea he drank last time.Although it is not very obvious, there is indeed a difference that is not easy to detect.

"Did you add anything else to it?"

"Who knows, maybe it's your bath water!"

"Are you Ram, please don't mention the bath water!"

What Echidna said reminded Subaru again of the sweet potatoes that Ram had dug and joked about steaming with his bath water.Subaru always felt that Ram might actually be able to do such a thing.

"Okay, okay, I've finished your tea, now I can talk about the big rabbit."

"Your rhetoric also makes me very shy."

"...Please don't be shy anymore, or if you are shy, at least let me see your shy expression."

Seriously talking about being shy or something, where did this come from?

"Well, seeing that you are in such a hurry, then I'll get serious."

Echidna adjusted her sitting posture, looked at Subaru and said, "Then, you know about the origin of the big rabbit, right?"

"Ah, it must be one of the three dozen monsters created by the 'Gluttonous Witch' that endanger the world."

"To be honest, if all witches are guys like you, I don't understand why the 'gluttonous witch' would create such a troublesome thing for humans."

"Or is it that you witches are actually divided into good guys and bad guys, divided into two factions?"

"It's not like that."

Echidna shook her head crisply at Subaru's guess.

"Witches don't have any hostility towards humans or other creatures, and it can even be said that they have good intentions."

"Just as I, as a 'witch of lust', will give knowledge to those who are thirsty for knowledge, the so-called witch is actually in love with human beings."

"Loving humans? But—"

"But why did the 'Gluttonous Witch' create monsters that harm humans?"
