"The normal little ball from before was the one I gave you. This one was probably something she made herself." Kaito once again let Wendy's side take the blame for his own side.
After all, they were both himself, so there was no need to stand on ceremony.
Wendy made it?
This little girl...
Was actually this perverted?
Miko was utterly astonished that this thing had actually been made by Wendy herself.
She didn't know whether it was because Wendy's smaller build made her look like a child, but right now she felt the Wendy she now knew was a huge contrast to the Wendy she had pictured before.
And setting aside the matter of Wendy looking like a child, Wendy's divine identity alone already struck her as an enormous contrast.
Still, if Kaito had been the one to make that thing, she'd have found it normal—after all, men just get these things. Wait!
If she wore this thing while doing that sort of thing with Kaito, wouldn't that be equivalent to...
Suddenly, thinking of this, Miko couldn't help but blush.
She'd seen this kind of plot in novels, but those were basically the sort that took a whole lot of people together to pull off.
"So, Miko, do you want to give it a try?" Kaito asked her at this point.
Because Miko could be said to exercise her eloquence quite often, he figured she might just accept this kind of thing.
Of course, he was only asking.
Miko: "!"
Not expecting Kaito to ask whether she wanted to use that thing, Miko's heart raced for a moment.
Then she said, "I'm not about to use that little girl's thing. Who knows whether she's got bad breath."
Although on the surface Miko had refused, in reality she hadn't refused at all.
"No, Wendy hasn't used it. Originally she wanted me to give it to Kiana to use, but Kiana didn't use it and just tossed it back to me, so then Wendy asked me to hold onto it for her, saying she'd use it later." Understanding what Miko meant, Kaito indicated that Wendy hadn't used this thing, and neither had anyone else.
As for why it was with him—that was of course because Wendy had asked him to keep it, not because he'd just conjured it up on a whim.
"Then what about Mei? Has she... used this thing?" Because she felt that if Mei had used it too, then there'd be no psychological burden in using it herself, Miko wanted to know whether Mei had used this thing.
Although Kaito had already clearly stated that Wendy had used this kind of thing—and even slept with it on—Miko had always felt the other party was just a little girl, whereas she herself was the respected Grand Shrine Maiden, Lady Miko; naturally that was different.
Of course, Wendy's identity as the Anemo Archon was not up for discussion here.
And besides, Wendy basically never said she was the Anemo Archon; she didn't put on any divine airs at all.
"Don't ask me about this kind of secret matter. What if Acheron gets angry with me? If you want to know, go ask her yourself." Kaito didn't want to answer Miko's question.
Acheron's side naturally hadn't used it, but he hoped Miko would stop always pressing him about things on his end.
"Fine." Feeling that what Kaito said made sense, Miko didn't ask any further.
After all, this implied that Kaito wouldn't tell Acheron and the others about her affairs in this regard, so she felt reassured.
Wait...
Kaito had just been talking about Wendy's affairs...
Suddenly thinking of this, Miko felt that Kaito still wasn't keeping things confidential enough.
So she decided to see how Kaito would explain it. "But haven't you already told me all about Wendy's affairs? How come you won't talk about Mei's? It wouldn't be because you can't beat her in a fight, would it?"
"Oh, this—it's because Acheron and the others all know about Wendy's thing, and she even said before that she wanted to make one for you and Lumine too. It's just that she seems to have forgotten by now; you obviously only found out about this thing today."
After thinking it over quickly, Kaito came up with this explanation.
Since they were all himself, Kaito naturally wouldn't fuss over the details, but Miko didn't know this, so he had to give a perfect explanation—otherwise it would be bad if Miko got the idea that he always went telling Acheron and the others about that sort of thing.
That's right...
Wendy had already said before that she wanted to show it to Lumine...
Recalling what had happened not long ago, Miko more or less understood.
"When did she ever say she'd make one for me? When she came by during the day, she only said she wanted to make a slightly special little ball for Lumine."
"Wendy came by?" Kaito seemed quite surprised at this point.
It couldn't be helped—by rights, he wasn't supposed to know that Wendy's side had come by.
"Yeah, but she left pretty quickly. So she didn't go looking for you after all?" Miko nodded.
"No, she was probably just wandering around aimlessly." Kaito wore a speculative look.
"I never expected this little girl would actually sleep with this thing on. She wouldn't have done it often before, would she—"
"Of course not. How could I ever fall asleep like that?" Knowing what Miko was about to say, Kaito immediately cut in with this.
Miko's words, however, reminded him of the time back in Mondstadt when he and Wendy's side had slept the whole night maintaining that kind of position.
Of course, that sort of thing was best left unsaid.
"Hmph! Are you afraid she'd bite you in her sleep?" At this Miko brought up what had just happened again—after all, just now she'd been biting Kaito and refusing to let go.
"All right, all right, enough. Let's get down to business—standing here this whole time is a bit weird."
Not expecting Miko to bring up what had just happened yet again, Kaito hurriedly changed the subject.
In any case, business first—that was what mattered most.
"Hmph!"
Snorting once more, Miko took that thing straight out of Kaito's hand.
Since Kaito wanted her to wear that thing anyway, she'd just wear it for a bit.
In any case, it wasn't that she wanted to wear it herself—it was Kaito who'd demanded it.
Hm?
How was the size exactly the same?
The instant it went into her mouth, Miko immediately felt that the size was basically identical to Kaito's.
"This little girl actually went to the trouble of making it the very same size." Taking the thing back out of her mouth, Miko looked at it—now coated in her own saliva—and said this.
"Looks like you've already gotten used to it, Miko."
Watching Miko slide the thing into her mouth without the slightest sign of discomfort, Kaito was rather surprised too.
"Used to what?" Miko, just about to push it in further, was stunned as well, not grasping what Kaito meant.
"I mean, you don't even have any urge to gag."
Seeing that Miko didn't catch his meaning, Kaito explained a little.
"Hmph! You make me do that so often—how could I not be used to it?" At this Miko looked rather peeved.
We've only done it that way a few times, though... In response to Miko's words, Kaito couldn't help thinking this to himself.
Still, he didn't say it out loud—after all, in this situation he'd best not provoke Miko.
Forget it.
I won't bother stooping to this fellow's level...
Feeling that getting down to business was what really mattered, Miko, her expression back to normal, took that thing into her mouth again and fastened it securely behind her head.
