Chapter 504: 504

Sieg-san’s warning story to Rainbow Dragon has finally ended . I wonder how much of what Sieg-san said could be understood by the baby Rainbow Dragon though .

But considering that the Rainbow Dragon followed Sieg-san’s instructions and generated a Rainbow Diamond when I asked Alice to examine it, and considering the fact that she was nodding her head at key points in Sieg-san’s story, she might actually be pretty smart .

However, it seems like she was still a baby . After listening to Sieg-san’s story, it seems like she has felt sleepy, climbing on the sitting Sieg-san’s lap after her story, and curling up, she fell asleep .

As I was being soothed by her cute gesture, I noticed that Lilia-san and Luna-san had disappeared before I knew it . It seems that they were being mindful and left Sieg-san and I alone .

[……Sieg-san, are you feeling okay? I’m sorry, it ended up in quite the commotion……]

[No, please don’t apologize . It was thanks to Kaito-san that I was able to meet this child…… I don’t feel like I can thank you enough for it . But still, allow me to express my gratitude…… Thank you . ]

After telling me this with her usual gentle expression, Sieg-san added, “I was surprised by the white gold coin though”, with a wry smile on her face, and I smiled along with her . .

After handing over the fruits I brought with me, Sieg-san sat down on the sofa and I sat down next to her .

……It’s so quiet . There were no servants in the common room, probably because Lilia-san and the others had taken care of having them leave the premises . It was just Sieg-san and I . I wonder if that’s why? Sitting side by side with Sieg-san tonight, I felt ticklish…… and yet, I felt relieved and strangely calm .

[……Speaking of which, have you decided on a name for the child?]

[……No . Actually, in regards to that, I have a favor I’d like to ask Kaito-san . ]

[A favor?]

” ”

[Yes…… Will you decide on a name for this child, Kaito-san?]

[Ehh? M- Me?]

Those words were honestly something I didn’t expect . It was Sieg-san’s long-cherished dream to have a pet, so I thought she would name her pet herself…… so I didn’t think she would ask me to name her pet here .

My naming sense…… I wonder how good it is? Bell’s name came from Alice, and Lynn’s name came from Mary-san . I’ve never named a pet before…… and frankly speaking, I don’t have a shred of confidence in my naming sense .

I- Is it possible for me to gently turn her request down?

[……It’s thanks to Kaito-san that I was able to meet this child . Ummm, t- this might be annoying but…… I think of her as “our child”…… That’s why, ummm, I’d like to ask you to name her, Kaito-san . ]

[………………]

[……Is it no good?]

[No! P- Please wait a moment . I’m still thinking about it . ]

I can’t refuse!? Receiving a request with such a murderously cute expression, combined with her blushing red cheeks and slightly downcast look, there was no way I could say no .

A cute girl like Sieg-san is asking a request filled with her love like this…… If I don’t live up to her request, then no way I can call myself a man!

Think, strain my mind…… All the knowledge that exists in my head, I need you on my side for now……

[……Ah, come to think of it, is that Rainbow Dragon a boy or a girl?]

[She’s female…… a girl . ]

[I see, alright . P- Please leave it to me . ]

A name, a name, a girl’s name…… Ugghhhh, this is difficult . A name that will live up to Sieg-san’s expectations…… Show me the lightbulb, my head!

……This child is a Rainbow Dragon . Rainbow…… Rain? No, it’s too cheesy of a name, and I feel like it would bring rain instead of rainbows in our lives instead……

Hmmm . From what I see, her wings may be rainbow-colored, but this child looks like the aurora . She’s got a body as black as the night sky and a mane like emerald…… I’ll have to think along those lines .

Aurora borealis…… Aurora…… Speaking of which, I think I’ve seen it being featured on a TV show back then . What was it again? If I remember correctly, didn’t they talk about the origins of auroras? If I remember correctly, they also featured what they call the aurora in different countries . Remember…… Squeeze that memory out!

[……H- How about…… “Selas”? You can also call her with Sela……]

(T/N: Aurora Borealis is “Βόρειο Σέλας” in greek, which is pronounced as vóreio sélas . I’m tempted to name her Seras though . That’s how MC-kun said it after all . You know, JP with their R/L problem . )

[Selas, that’s a very pretty name . Does that name have any origin?]

[Errr, in a language back in my world…… It means “dawn” . ]

(T/N: Aurora in Latin, means dawn, not the name Selas . )

[Dawn?]

[Yes . Do you have auroras in this world?]

[Auroras? Yes, I’ve never seen it myself, but I believe it’s something you can see in the Land of Death……]

It seems like the aurora is a phenomenon that also exists in this world . I wonder if someone who played the role of Hero back then named it? Well, that aside, this makes it easier for me to explain .

[In the world I was in, the aurora was a natural phenomenon where you could see green lights in the night sky, just like the body and mane of this child . And the origin of the aurora was the Goddess of Dawn, so I associated her name after that . ]

[……I see . ]

[……W- What do you think?]

The name I gave her, based on the hazy knowledge I managed to pull out of my head, is pretty good in my opinion . It’s a girlish name, and it’s easy to call her by her nickname…… I think .

[……It’s a really, really nice name . Kaito-san, thank you . ]

[No . ]

I’m glad…… it seems like she liked it .

As I let out a sigh of relief since Sieg-san liked the name Selas, I felt Sieg-san’s head gently leaning on my shoulder .

[Sieg-san?]

[……Kaito-san . Can I stay like this for a while?]

[……Yes . ]

[……Thank you . Just spending time with you like this makes me feel so happy…… I’m glad to have met you, Kaito-san . ]

[Yes, I’m also glad that I met you, Sieg-san . ]

I feel like from the part of Sieg-san’s body that is touching me, heat was being transmitted and was slowly warming my whole body up . I wonder what this is? Can I say it like our hearts are communicating with each other……? The feeling of sharing the same happiness with each other feels inexplicably comforting .

[……Kaito-san…… I’ll take good care of Selas . ]

[I’ll help you too…… It’s our child after all……]

[……Yes . ]

Hugging Sieg-san’s shoulders as she leaned her body on me, I truly enjoyed a moment filled with happiness .

Dear Mom, Dad————— After my suggestion, it was decided that the Rainbow Dragon is named Selas . Spending time with your beloved lover certainly feels warm and comforting . I’ve heard from somewhere about how two people sharing happiness could experience twice the joy, and indeed, when I’m with Sieg-san————– I feel like my happiness is growing greater .

Serious-senpai SB mode : [Ughaaak!? I- It’s been a long time since I’ve been struck with this huh…… This sugar-filled violence . Straightforward lovey-dovey…… I can’t stand it . Even with the SB mode, my Defense power against such attacks hasn’t risen at all…… Just get married already!!!]
