Oceanic Lantern

  Translated by Shufen Unedited. Sorry! On the way back from the magic institute, I met Ordias-san by the doorway. As I passed by him, I was surprised by his random words as he sighed. He said something along the lines of me disturbing the sleep of other people. For a moment I didn’t understand what he said so I was prepared to leave Ordias-san. I then immediately thought back on the night that Noel appeared in my room. That night, Noel grabbed my shoulders and the bracelet I received from Ordias-san flashed like a warning. After that, nothing particular happened so I thought it was only a simple warning. It turns out it has contacted Ordias-san. “Please wait, Ordias-san. About what happened…” (Haruka) “I know it was because of Noel.” (Ordias) I haven’t done anything wrong since I can’t help it. “I knew he was going to contact you sooner or later so I wasn’t surprised.” (Ordias) “…How long have you known? Did you overhear the conversation?” (Haruka) “When

Translated by Shufen Unedited. Sorry! It was a sleepless night. That’s right… My nerves were too tight to be able to have a good night of sleep after what happened. I couldn’t fall asleep. I wonder if it’ll happen again. I wonder if I actually fell asleep and it was all a dream. I feel like that is possible. I mean, it’s not possible for Noel to appear here like that. Did it really happen or was that dream? But if it was a dream, why am I so tired? I put my head back down onto the bed. Whether it’s a dream or a reality, I want to meet him again in a decent place. Speaking of myself, I wasn’t dressed in anything that has any sex appeal. Don’t even mention my sleepy eyes. I had terrible equipment on to face my unrequited love. I know this isn’t a situation to care about such things, but my maiden’s heart is crying bitter tears. Well, I guess it’s time to push Noel to the backburner. It felt like my confession never happened, which was a good thing. If I go back to t

  Translated by Shufen Unedited There’s silence between us again. This situation isn’t small. In the first place, I’m confused as to why Noel illegally enters my room so late at night. In my state of confusion, he suddenly told me to “come with me”. If I didn’t read the situation correctly, it would’ve caused my heart rate to increase in vain. However, I immediately understood that the words Noel said didn’t hold any sweet implication.   So…that means it must be because I’m in danger, right? “…Why?” (Haruka) I am somewhat annoyed at Noel’s aggressive way of talking. It’s impossible to carelessly take Noel’s hand.   “Why are you not being protected by Hamuti-sama?” (Noel) “…I told him I’ll stand out if he was protecting an ordinary girl like me.” (Haruka) At that time, I agreed that it was reasonable. However, with the appearance of Noel in front of me, I understood that it wasn’t the right answer. Naturally that made my voice smaller. “Wit
