Abnormal Moon

"come on."

Roy gestured with his chin, indicating for her to come over.

"Yes."

Nakano Ichika breathed a sigh of relief, mustered her courage, came up behind Roy, took the towel handed to her, and began to wipe his back.

As she rubbed and washed, Ichika took a deep breath, trying to calm her heart, which was pounding in her chest.

Then he untied the bath towel and let it fall to the ground.

She pressed her body against him and used it as a towel to wipe him.

"This way it gets cleaner."

Whether to persuade Roy or to hypnotize herself, Ichika spoke to herself.

Roy didn't speak, but the touch behind him made his eyes change and his breathing quicken.

"Lord Roy, it's time to wash... the front..."

Nakano Ichika's trembling voice came through.

Roy turned around.

Ichika Nakano stepped over his legs, came to him, and nestled into his arms.

Roy's gaze fell on her cheek.

Her face, so close to his, was flushed, her eyes were wet, her eyelashes trembled, and she looked at him nervously like a fawn.

"Lord Roy, where do you want me to clean?"

Yihua whispered in his ear, her gentle tone carrying an inexplicable allure.

"Of course, every corner of the body."

Roy grinned.

A different kind of malice appeared on his face, completely different from when he committed the murder.

Having received the definite order, Ichika finally let go of her inhibitions. Her lotus-root-like white arms wrapped around his neck, and she began to use every means to clean his body.

Soon, a suppressed singing voice filled the bathroom.

After everything returned to calm.

The bathroom door was quietly opened, and Ichika Nakano peeked out. Her eyes were still slightly red. She looked around and, seeing that no one was there, quietly walked out of the bathroom.

"What are you doing here?"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind her, startling her.

"Miss Hayasaka..."

Nakano Ichika turned around and realized that Hayasaka Ai was standing right in her blind spot, causing her lips to twitch.

"Ah, it's nothing, I just wanted to take a shower..."

Ichika's face was beaming with a warm smile.

However, she never dared to meet Hayasaka Ai's gaze.

Hayasaka Ai's eyes, clear as sapphires, seemed to see through everything.

"Is that so? Lord Roy hasn't come out yet. You'd better not go in."

"Haha, I just found out too, I definitely won't do it again."

Nakano Ichika chuckled dryly twice, then quickly walked past Hayasaka Ai and left.

Fortunately, she had changed her clothes before coming out.

Ichika Nakano was overjoyed.

Behind her, Hayasaka Ai watched her departing figure, her gaze lingering on her somewhat unusual gait. Her eyes were lowered slightly, lost in thought.

That's really proactive.

Well, it's understandable that he acts so quickly because he has a younger sister to protect.

I wonder what Kasumigaoka Utaha's reaction would be if she knew about this?

I'm slightly interested.

"Wow."

The bathroom door was opened again.

Roy emerged from the bathroom, looking perfectly normal, his face flushed with the characteristic rosy glow of a hot bath, and steam rising from his body.

"Hayasaka, what are you doing here?"

"Just happened to be passing by."

Hayasaka Ai bowed slightly.

She looked up as if she didn't care.

Roy wasn't wearing glasses.

She felt a chill in her heart.

"I just happened to be passing by and didn't see anything special."

Roy remained noncommittal and put on his glasses.

The cold, stern aura emanating from him melted away like ice and snow.

"You've worked hard too. This family is quite big, so sometimes you don't need to take care of everything so meticulously."

He smiled and gave Hayasaka Ai a word of advice before leaving.

Chapter 73 Hayasaka Ai: Rin-sama, hurry up and get on board!

"Lord Orange?"

In the backyard of the mansion, Aozaki Touko frowned, her face full of anxiety and uncertainty, her expression even a little disheveled.

A voice sounded anxiously in her ear.

"Hmm? It's Ichika. What's up?"

Aozaki Touko snapped out of her daze and looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her.

Her hair was wet, and she looked like she had just come out of the bathroom.

Orange smiled subconsciously, raised her hand to take a puff of her cigarette, only to find that she had somehow ended up with just a cigarette butt in her hand.

She had been living in fear for a long time without realizing it.

Orange chuckled self-deprecatingly.

She had previously taught Ilya to recognize and utilize reality, but when it came to her own situation, she immediately slipped up. Upon hearing those fantastical remarks, she lost her composure to such an extent.

"Yes, actually I would like to... ask you to help me activate the magic circuit."

Nakano Ichika spoke cautiously.

She dared not look at Orange, fearing that Orange might bury her on the spot if she got angry.

"this is very simple."

But Aozaki Touko did not get angry.

She laughed as if she had expected this, and placed her hand on Ichika Nakano, using her magic to help her activate her magic circuits.

Ichika Nakano breathed a sigh of relief.

As expected, Lady Orange had already noticed her little scheme. I'm so grateful for her forbearance.

Before long, Nakano Ichika felt some strange meridians appear in her body, and as she circulated them, a warm current would surge out from her body.

Feeling this power, she was overjoyed.

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knocking sound coming from the front yard.

"It seems we have guests."

Aozaki Touko gave up on thinking about those unrealistic questions and walked towards the front yard.

…………

Where should I put my luggage?

The person who came was Rin Tohsaka.

She appeared at the entrance of the Aozaki residence, carrying large and small bags.

Why did you bring so much stuff here?

Roy arrived at the mansion's entrance, opened the door for her, and asked with a speechless expression.
