Chapter 194

Godly Comforter 1

Godly beddings .

Right, godly beddings . As one of the rewards from this, in my opinion, it could be called the main reward .

The night that the Dungeon Battle finished, I hurried—dashed, even—to Rokuko’s bedroom .

Even though I say it like that, we went with the pattern of slipping away from the closing party separately and at different times . It was a two-day long party to both celebrate the Dungeon Battle’s end as well as a farewell party . Haku-san didn’t say anything in particular when Rokuko left .

When Rokuko left, she first made eye contact with me for an instant . A while after that, I slipped out of the room knowing full well what the meaning behind that look was and headed to the bedroom that Rokuko was using .

As a result, that’s why the two of us met up at her bedroom . Ku ku ku, this is something that a thickheaded protagonist would never be able to imitate . This task was accomplished due to the telepathy that exists between partners!

Naturally, I have no obscene intentions . None at all .

“Y-you’re here, Kehma! I was waiting . ”

“Yeah, I’m here . ”

Rokuko had already changed into her pajamas . I knelt before her .

And then—

“So, please, please show me the godly beddings!”

“What’s with that no-hesitation dogeza!? You don’t need to do that, Kehma . Hey, look up . Let’s look at the godly beddings together . ”

“Ooh… are you an angel?”

“W-why are you comparing me to those dangerous things that stand alongside God’s Vanguards?”

Ah, so angels are like that from the point of view on the dungeons’ side huh . Angels are god’s subordinates after all… So what should I compare her to?

“A demon?”

“That’s a bit off?”

“A… goddess?”

“W-what’re you talking about, Kehma! I’m not some existence that should be worshiped!”

Rokuko said that, but her face was red and she was waving her hands in the air . Looks like she didn’t dislike it .

Looks like goddess is good . I’ll remember that . Come to think of it, Haku-san is said to be a white goddess or something huh .

“Now then, please… show me the godly beddings…”

“… Un . ”

I’m finally going to see one of the godly beddings, the [Godly Comforter] . I’m so nervous, my heart’s pounding like it wants to pop out of my chest . Rokuko’s just like me, she’s probably excited like how a child is when they open a present from their dad .

Rokuko took out a box wrapped with a ribbon—it looks just like a present box . It doesn’t look large enough to have a comforter in it, but it’s probably using a magic like [Storage] . Slowly, Rokuko untied the ribbon with her hands .

Continuing, she took off the lid… I gulped back saliva .

“… Eeei!”

Resolving herself, she took it off in one go . It shined for an instant, revealing a divine white comforter . Rokuko picked it up .

“… So beautiful . ”

“Yyeah… I think so too…”

I wound up praising it involuntarily .

… This is a godly bedding . This is the godly comforter .

“To be honest, I underestimated it… No, really… for it to be this…”

“… It feels amazing . Kehma, try touching it too . ”

“No, wait . First is the manual . There’s even the possibility that I won’t be able to return to this world just by a thoughtless touch . It’s probably better if I don’t even touch the box . ”

“Y-yeah . It’s as Kehma says . Let’s be careful . Umm, where is it~?”

“Maybe it’s under the lid? Try turning it over . ”

“Un . Like this? The comforter’s in the way, I can’t see anything . Kehma, do you see it?”

Still holding the godly comforter in one of her hand, Rokuko turned over the present box’s lid .

… There it is . It’s a letter .

“Yeah . I see it . It’s where I thought it’d be . ”

“Nn… this? … Opening it’s a bit scary, huh?”

“If you don’t open it, I won’t be able to see . ”

“I-I know… Hey, can you see it now?”

Rokuko opened up the instructions . Inside it were notes on how to use the godly comforter .

What?

“… Rokuko, this…”

“W-what? What’s wrong?”

Inside it, there was the following in handwritten letters:

Name: Godly Comforter (Rokuko’s Use Only)

Effects:

Will sleep incredibly comfortably . Will have a good dream .

No matter how tired, both physical strength and magical power will fully recover by sleeping with this .

Even if you do intense exercise before going to bed, it won’t hinder your work the next day .

One thousand year warranty!

(However, as this is a special item, anyone else using it will receive divine retribution . )

*Otou-san’s Supplement*

This is a Rokuko-only item . No one but her can use it, so be careful . If anyone other than the owner tries using it, they will receive divine retribution that would even cause God to pale, so Kehma-kun can’t use it alright?

… However, this function is to prevent theft and cheating, so this won’t happen if a couple that has full trust in each other uses it . Well then, have fun .

Wow, that supplement… is super suspicious .

What’s with that ‘have fun’, oi .

Aah, but there were quite a few stories about cheating in Earth’s legends huh~ . So there’s a cheat prevention system attached to this comforter . So then, no cheating~ .

… But it’s okay if we fully trust each other, huh . Hmmm .

“In other words, it’s not a problem for you and me right? Or do you not trust me?”

“That’s not the thing I’m troubled about . It’s the ‘couple’ part . If it were simply cheating, you don’t have to be a couple for that…”

“Ah, right . I’m still Rokuko Labriheart . Should I be Rokuko Masuda from now on then?”

“Nope . No can do . ”

Hold up, I’ve been completely locked on . It’s not like I dislike Rokuko, but it’s still only been a year since we met . I don’t want to speed things up so fast .

“… Y-yeah . It’s said that you aren’t recognized as a couple until you have a proper ceremony and report it to a community leader—ah, Kehma is a Village Chief though?”

“Eh? I think that in this case, we’d need Haku-san’s approval…”

“Mmm, but you know, Haku Ane-sama doesn’t look like she hates Kehma, so I don’t think there’d be any problems?”

No waaay! Haku-san would immediately remove me if I gave her the chance .

Just then, Rokuko clapped her hands .

“Wouldn’t it be alright if Kehma turned into me?”

“Turn into… Rokuko? … Ah, [Super Transformation] huh?”

I still have one more transformation left for today . If I use it to transform into Rokuko, wouldn’t I be able to use the godly comforter?

… But really, can the godly comforter be tricked? There might be a chance, but considering that the skill came from God, it’s a 50% at best .

However, I trust Rokuko, and Rokuko trusts me as well . Although we’re not a couple, that adds another 50% to it .

Booyah! That makes it a 100% success rate! Hyahoooh!”

“[Super Transformation]… Alright!”

I, who had transformed into Rokuko, touched the godly comforter . It’s a 100% success rate, so I don’t have to worry about anything!

… Ahuhuuun . Just touching it makes my legs want to collapse…!

“Kehma, having a look like that on my own face is embarrassing!”

“—Sorry, was I making a strange expression?”

I might have drooled, so let’s wipe my mouth too .

“Does the transformation not break when you go to sleep?”

“It doesn’t seem like it . It should be okay so long as my magical power doesn’t run out and I don’t turn it off . ”

“Okay . Let’s sleep together then, Kehma . Just in case, alright?”

“Ooh, paying attention to the details . As expected of my partner . ”

If I’m sleeping together with Rokuko, that should halve the divine retribution even in the tiny chance it happens . In other words, my 100% success rate just doubled! That’s 200% success rate! 200! It’s definitely my win .

Rokuko got into bed and held up the godly comforter, inviting me in .

… I got in next to Rokuko .

The sensation that the godly comforter isn’t something that I could put into words .

If I were forced to describe it, it’s like that happy feeling you get just after you wake up, but having it last constantly .

I had a good dream too, but I don’t really remember it .

It feels like it was a pleasant dream where I was flying in the sky .
