Day 3

"Oh, are you going home already?"

"Sorry Yunyun! I just wanted to get those scum out of the house!"

"Aqua and Megumi?"

"That's right, it's about time we let them out! Want to come with us, Yunyun?"

"No, I'll decline."

"Well, take care of yourself, okay? See you tomorrow."

"yes..."

 With that, Kazuma left the cafe. Why did I turn down Kazuma's invitation? I don't understand it myself. But anyway, all we did today was eat. What happened with the date, Kazuma?

 Before I knew it, I was secretly hiding near the front of Kazuma's mansion. This is bad. I'm totally a stalker!

"Hey you! Let's go! Aqua, Megumin!"

"I'm still sleepy, Kajuma-san."

"It's a waste of nutrients..."

"Wow... you're a total NEET!"

 Kazuma dragged them outside. I followed secretly. They bought some snacks and made their way to the park.

"You guys..."

"Hmmmm~"

"Did you know that the sun is bad for your health, Kazuma?"

 Aqua and Megumin are sitting on a bench. Kazuma looks at them and seems to be sighing.

 It seems that Megumin has become quite lazy since we last saw her. Her already pale skin has become even paler.

"Come on, it's food, eat!"

"Kazuma, let me eat."

"Me too~"

"Huh?! What are you saying..."

"Ahh."

"You guys are like baby birds waiting for food! Ah, come on! Eat, eat!"

 Kazuma shoved food into Aqua and Megumin's mouths. It was just too much to bear to watch, for two reasons. I obediently returned to the inn and collapsed into bed.

"I'm not having fun today!"

I rolled around on the bed

Day 4

Kazuma comes to the coffee shop with a large bag. What on earth is he going to do?

"Okay, Yunyun! Let's go and eat!"

"Where?"

"It's fun when you get there!"

 Kazuma seemed to be in a good mood today. Is he really having so much fun? After having lunch at a coffee shop, we left the town of Axel. After walking a little way, Kazuma stopped.

"Is this okay?"

"Kazuma-san, we're at the river. What are you doing?"

"You still don't get it... it's fishing!"

 I see, that makes sense. We are upstream of the river that flows through the town of Axel. Looking around, I see several people with fishing rods.

"Come on, Yunyun, I'm ready!"

"Huh? It looks like a toy fishing rod. It looks like it'll break if you try to catch a fish with it."

"Well, the fun begins after we catch the fish!"

 With that, Kazuma and the others around him prepared their own big fishing rods. It was kind of unfair.

"Don't look at me like that, Yun Yun! I'm just going to stick this rod in and leave it there."

 Kazuma attached bait to a large fishing rod and cast the line into the river. Then, he leaned the rod against a rock and took a toy-like fishing rod.

"Come on, Yunyun, put on the bait."

"Yes, but the hook is pretty small. Will it really catch any fish?"

"Yes, yes, and the bait is chicken. Not insects, okay?"

"The bugs are gone now!"

 Trying to forget the unpleasant memories, I carefully attached the bait to a tiny hook and, just like Kazuma, let the line drop into the water.

"Kazuma-san, what should we do next?"

"Yunyun, watch the float on your fishing rod."

"Ah, yes!"

I glared at the float. Then...

"Wow! The float is moving! Can I pull it?"

"Calm down, just wait until the float stops moving."

"yes!"

As I waited as instructed, the float sank and stopped moving.

"Yunyun, now, pull slowly."

"Understood!"

 As I slowly pulled, I felt a vibration as if something was thrashing about on the fishing rod, and then I succeeded in pulling the line up completely.

"Wow! Kazuma, it's shrimp! I caught some shrimp!"

"Wow! It's a good size! That's amazing, Yunyun!"

"I did it! I did it, Kazuma!"

"Okay, okay, so don't come hugging me with a shrimp in your hand!"

 From then on, it was a really fun time. When my dad took me fishing in the past, it was boring, but fishing with Kazuma was not boring at all. And even though it was only for a short time, I got a glimpse of the fun of fishing. Yes, fishing is a psychological battle between you and your prey!

"Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! I caught a bigger one than last time!"

"Wow, that's impressive."

"Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! Look! Look! I caught a fish!"

"Oh, it's a goby. Amazing, amazing."

"Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! Did you see that just now? A big banana jumped!"

"Wow, that's amazing, amazing... a banana? Are you crazy?"

"Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! We caught lots and lots of fish!"

"Yeah, let's let the little one get away."

"Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! I caught another fish! Praise me, praise me!"

"You're not Aqua inside, are you!?"

 Before I knew it, there were dozens of shrimps squirming in the bucket. I felt so proud!

"Alright, Yunyun! It's almost time to finish."

"Are you done yet?"

"I've been fishing for three hours now."

"Huh? Ah, it's true..."

Time flies when I'm with Kazuma. I want to hang out with him more.

"I'll take the shrimp home and remove the mud. I'll bring shrimp dishes tomorrow for lunch, so look forward to it!"

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it."

 Today is the last day of my date with Kazuma. Thinking about that made me feel a little lonely. But starting tomorrow, we'll have another day of adventure. Thinking about that made the loneliness disappear.

 Just then, I heard a tinkling sound. It was the sound of a bell attached to the large fishing rod that Kazuma used to change the bait from time to time. Kazuma gently picked up the rod and handed it to me. He then came around to my back and hugged me from behind. So now we both had the same fishing rod.

"Yunyun! Do the same as me, okay?"

"What's this all of a sudden? Well, I'll give it a try."

And, if you wait for a while in that position, the tip of the spear will drop down...

"Now!"

 Kazuma said as he raised his fishing rod. At that moment, he felt a vibration and a pull that was incomparable to that of a shrimp.

"Kazuma-san! What is it? What is it?!"

"It's a big fish! Yunyun, reel it in! I'll hold the rod!"

"Understood!"

 After that, the struggle with the fish continued. If I let my guard down for even a moment, I might get dragged into the river!

"Whoa!? What's that fish shadow? It's golden!"

"Kazuma-san! It's big! It's really big!"

"Oh, that's a good word."

 Finally, the prey came up near the surface. It was incredibly big. It must have been at least 1 meter long.

"It's impossible to pull this up. Yunyun, can you try to hold on by yourself for a while?"

"Uh! I'll try!"

"Leave it to me."

With that, Kazuma ran off to the other fisherman.

"Hey, old man! You're a big shot! Lend me your net!"

"All right! Leave it to me!"

"Yunyun, I've brought reinforcements! Are you still hanging on?"

"We're almost at the water's surface!"

"Uncle, leave it to me!"

"Leave it to me, boy!"

 And then I caught a big one. Immediately, the man came over with his net!

"It's huge! It could be a meter in size! That's amazing, young lady!"

"thank you!"

 While the man and I were having a great time, Kazuma was the only one staring intently at his catch. I see, he wants to eat it while it's still fresh!

"Well then, let's eat! What do you think, uncle?"

"Seriously, please let me accompany you!"

"..."

"Come on, let's eat, Kazuma! This is a big banana!"

"I really hate this world!"

 We then enjoyed some delicious fresh bananas, which were so tasty they made the ones in the stores look like trash. In fact, Kazuma was crying while eating them!

 Then, as the sun was setting, we arrived at Axel's lodging. My boring days had turned into such fun days. It really felt like a dream. As I instinctively pulled at my cheeks, Kazuma spoke to me.

"Yunyun, did you have fun today?"

"Yes, of course!"

"I see, that's fine then."

Kazuma patted my head, and I accepted it with my eyes closed.

"Yunyun, starting tomorrow, it'll be another day of adventure and sex."

"Bring it on!"

"That's right, I've been feeling pent up, so prepare yourself."

"Hehe, I'll gladly accept it."

Then Kazuma turned his back on me.

"See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, Kazuma!"

 As the sun was setting, I returned to the mansion. I put the shrimp in a tank in the courtyard and drained the mud. They should be ready to eat tomorrow. Then, feeling a little tired, I went to the living room and found Megumin sitting on the sofa.

"I'm home, Megumin."

"Welcome back, Kazuma."

After saying that, Megumin hugged me.

"What? Have you turned into Aqua too?"

Megumin responded to me by hugging me tighter.

"Would you like to come to my room now? I have something important to tell you."
