Hanamizuki, Because Flowers Are Not Just Beautiful
Chapter 23: Sunny Day (II)
“Again, Came-chan.”
“Whoaaa!!”
Spontaneous Camelyum instantly rose from her place, once realizing she was sleeping in the same place as Riri, with her thin clothes and unraveled hair.
“P-Morning too, M-Master!”
“Why are your clothes like that?”
Riri looked at Camelyum who was wearing a nightgown aka a thin white dress. Camelyum's face suddenly flushed like a tomato, and his heart was racing.
“...Uh...a-anu..
“I'm like a long sleep. Many strange dreams I saw, did I sleep that long?”
Riri did not notice Camelyum's reddened face. He put his right arm on his forehead and stared at the ceiling of the room. His face still looks weak.
“Uh...yah..you always say that you are sleep deprived..Master...”.
“The dream I saw..I was like sleeping for a year..”.
“K-why...?”
Slowly Riri got up and sat his body. Spontaneous Camelyum approached and helped her sit down.
“What can your body be moved without any pain, Master?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“Uh...yah I mean because you did sleep a long time..so I thought you would feel body pain from lying down too long.”.
Actually Camelyum remembered the words of Dianthus the other day, where Riri could not move freely when he woke up because the flow of mana was not as normal as usual.
“Means I did sleep a long time huh...How long did I sleep?”
Riri could see her reflection in the large mirror that was in front of her bed. His silver hair was back to normal, there was no more black gray hair.
“Eh...My hair is back to normal..”.
Riri touched some of her hair. He slightly smiled at her smile.
“Did anything happen last night while I was sleeping?”
Camelyum did not immediately answer him, he instead played his fingers.
“Huh? Why, Came-chan?”
“Um...no...nothing happened..everything is fine....!”.
“Really? Then why are we in the top room?”
Of course Camelyum was confused to answer. As much as possible he wanted to keep everything that happened to his Master a secret until the time came.
“Because I think Master definitely needs a new view, looking at the stars from the window up there before going to bed, isn't that beautiful? so I brought you here—”
Camelyum just closed his mouth. His face turned red.
“You okay Came-chan? Are you feverish? Your face is so red lo—”
Why do I suddenly remember when my lips accidentally kissed Riri's lips anyway!?
“Wah, you two are like newlyweds, wear so-called clothes again, hihihi—”
In the doorway was seen Dianthus who was draping his hands together on his chest and giving a mischievous smile.
“A-what did you say earlier, Dianthus-san!? It's not what you think!”
Dianthus stepped inside Riri's room with a gaze that was also ‘nakal’.
“Really? Then what about the thin clothes you're wearing? Perfect fit, Riri is bare-chested so.”
Upon hearing that, Riri was shocked and immediately grabbed her blanket. He is indeed bare-chested.
“W-WHOOAA!! W-WHEN DON'T I WEAR THIS SHIRT!? HOW COME I DON'T KNOW!?”
“Ahahaha! Funny to see the faces of both of you, making me couldn't stand it!”
“S-I told you this is not what you think!”
Camelyum hurriedly came out of the place leaving Riri still shocked because he only realized that his body was half-naked, and Dianthus was still giggling to see him.
“His funny look at the girl who shy cat so...”
“You're..”.
“Ah, you will definitely not remember me, stupid Master.”
“What did you say earlier!?”
“Before you want to nag me, can you move? No pain felt?”
“Why are you asking the same thing with Camelyum?”
“Ah forget it, you can cook right? Quickly make me breakfast, I'm tired of staying up all night here.”
Dianthus vanished leaving behind several petals of Carnation flowers. While Riri was still silent while wearing her towel.
“Actually what happens when I sleep? Weird.”
***
“Sorry troubles you a lot, Dianthus-san..”.
“Eh no need to bend so! This is also Nonaku's order. Just relax!”
“Uh...if the battle for seeds occurs again..As much as possible I do not want to be your enemy.”.
Dianthus was slightly startled at Camelyum's words, then smiled.
“Ah I don't think it's possible, after all your Master is my non son, we can't be enemies.
“Yes, I hope so.”
“Please tell your Master not to go to the academy first until Nonaku contacts you. Ok? See you later.”
After breakfast, Camelyum escorted Dianthus to the front door without Riri in the bathroom.
“Don't go to the academy.after all it's Saturday anyway.
“C-Came-chan!!”
Surprised to hear Riri shout, Camelyum hurriedly returned inside.
“A-what's the Master?!”
“B-how about that magic tournament!? Did my student win!? Is everything going well!? Why did I forget all about that!?”
Camelyum did not answer immediately when he heard Riri ask all that with a super-shocky look. He played his fingers again.
“Everything..running smoothly kok..only..”.
“What only? My students succeeded? Or failed? I really don't remember what happened after that!”
Of course he won't know it all, because dark Riri screwed things up…
This time Camelyum was completely confused to answer him, until shortly silent, the sound of the doorbell sounded.
“Huh? Is there anyone?”
“B-how can anyone know the location of my castle that is blocked by such a coated seal?”
Riri ran straight to the door. Camelyum slightly sighed.
“I really don't know what to answer..”.
“Ya, who's there?”
Riri didn't open the door right away. He made sure who was coming. But there's no answer from behind the door out there.
“Huh? No one answered..Will I open it?”
“Master—”
Riri actually opened her big door. He was immediately startled by a sight never imagined before.
“Ka-kalian—”
“Good morning, Riri-sama~!”
Behind the door were his 5 students. They were wearing maid clothes with stiff smiles and faces that were flushed with embarrassment.
“K-k-k-you guys..a-a-a-what's..”.
“We came here to serve Riri-sama all day long~!”
Iris with her spirit. Alstromeria and Amaryliss were very nervous.
“Riri-san is free to tell us anything, want to tell us to undress you can also~
Typha said innocently and instantly Riri's face flushed like a tomato.
“A-what are you doing in that shirt..?”
Camelyum saw her silently behind Riri's back.
“Nona Carnation ordered us to serve Riri-sensei for this whole day! Right?”
Elder said and was replied with a soft nod by everyone, except for the most spirited nods of Iris and Typha.
“This must be..the most beautiful dream of my life~”.
BRUUKK
“UWAAHH! RIRI-SENSEI!”
***
“Sensei? It's okay, right? Sensei?”
“Waah! Why are you guys hooking me up!?”
“Because sensei was suddenly passed out..”.
I am not dreaming. They wear maid clothes. Maid's shirt!
“You okay Master?”
“C-Camelyum!? Y-okok you're not missing!? I told you no one else saw you!?”
“It's okay Riri-sensei, we already know Camelyum-san, but sorry, it's a bit complicated to tell it.”
Said the Elder with a smile. I became more confused, what really happened during my sleep anyway?
“You guys why wear such clothes anyway!? What if someone kidnaps you!?”
Exciting spontaneous. Even though they look so sweet in that maid outfit.
“Nona Carnation said this will entertain Riri-san, so we were asked to wear this by her.”
Typha answered him innocently. His long hair was tied in half and rolled until it formed a ball. He's very funny.
“Uh...women it really is..”
“T-it's okay Riri-sensei! I-we also want to accompany you!”
Said Iris with a flushed face. She wears ribbons in both of her hair which are also ponytailed in two. He's sweeter like this.
“T-but what's the reason you guys wear this shirt?! Why must obey the strange request of the woman all the hell?!”
Excited again. You see, this is the same as him dismantling my disgrace that likes maid girls. Or Mahou Shoujo. Ahh, why didn't he ask them to wear Mahou Shoujo costumes instead? Aahhh what are you thinking anyway Riri Hanamizuki!?
“Master, are you sure it's okay? Your face is flushed again—”
I was shocked when Camelyum brought his face closer to mine. I thought about the no-no!
“R-Riri-sensei..a-what's breakfast? P-we need to make it for you..?”.
“No! I'll make breakfast for Riri-sensei!”
Amaryliss and Iris were still fighting despite being dressed so sweetly.
Oh, my God, I almost forgot one thing.
“K-you guys..don't tell me that you guys want to cheer me up because I failed to make you win in the magic tournament yesterday? Did you guys lose? Are you forcing yourself to entertain yourself by dressing maid like this? No no, you are not wrong, I am the one who should comfort you, please do not feel hopeless again!”
I bowed my head deeply in front of these 5 girls. I definitely failed to make them win, and they wanted to console themselves by accompanying me so that I would not stop teaching them. I am not talented at teaching.
“R-Riri-sama, please lift your head…! K-class E does not fail...!”
“Really? So did you guys win? You won, right?!”
“Anu..sensei..”.
“Actually we...”
Remember not to tell Riri anything about the events of the other day.If he asks about the results of the magic tournament, just say that you succeeded.
“For the first time, we managed to become a magic tournament champion thanks to your guidance, thank you very much, Riri-sensei!”
Amaryliss loudly continued the words of the clipped Elder and bowed his body, followed by the others. Seeing that I was a little surprised. Did they really succeed because of me?
“Ahem, it turns out I did give a lot of changes to your class huh! Ahahaha!”
“He started again..”.
“Riri-san, what can I do for you? Do I need to help you take a shower and rub your back? Typha-chan happily did it”
“EEEEHHHHH!!!??”
Spontaneously the 4th other girl who heard him was shocked. That innocent Typha, just the first time said that, I shuddered.
“A-me...change clothes first yes..”.
I said while waving slowly, seeing that my clothes were still in sleep mode. If indeed these 5 maids would accompany me, then I wouldn't waste an opportunity like this! Carnation-senpai, even if they don't wear Mahou Shoujo costumes, I thank you! I'll buy you more strawberry cakes!
***
“Nah please yes!”
“Riri-sensei it really makes us work...”
Riri asks Elder and Typha to clean up the messy bookshelves, then Alstromeria takes care of the equipment room, while Amaryliss and Iris have to shop for groceries for lunch.
“Sensei! Why should I go with him I don't want to!”
“Who wants to go with you too!? Hmph!”
Riri does not know enough that Iris and Amaryliss lately did not get along. He looked at the scene with a laugh.
“Hahaha, you don't get along, yosh, which means you're a great fit.”
“MATCH WHAT!!?”
“You maids sent Carnation-ne—I mean senpai to serve me right? Then just do it! Buy this food that I have written!”
Riri gave a piece of paper to the two of them and passed. When Amaryliss and Iris saw the contents of the paper, they were somewhat shocked.
“Daun parsley..keju parmesan..leaf basil..i-this is all the ingredients I have never seen before..”.
“Hohoho! Then you can't cook! I'm the one who goes shopping, you just sit there!”
“What did you say!? So indiscriminate! I'll do the shopping!”
“I!”
“I'm it!”
Amaryliss and Iris actually left in a gurgling gait, Riri who saw her from afar laughed.
“They did not get along well.Why did I just realize it..”.
Riri turned her eyes to the door of her room which was on the first floor. The room he used to wear.
“Yosh, I also want to clean up ka—”
“Master! B-let me do it! Master should not have to bother! I-it's a Sunday, so relax!”
Camelyum quickly held him back by opening the door to Riri's room on the 1st floor. So far Riri has not known the damage that occurred in this room when Kuroi Uta Gladiolus attacked.
“But I can't keep quiet..”.
“It's okay Master! You just sit quietly! Let me clean it up!”
Although a little confused, Riri also moved from there while scratching his head that does not itch. He's up the stairs. Camelyum breathed a sigh of relief.
“What's Camelyum-san?”
Camelyum was shocked when Elder suddenly got near him.
“Uh well...Master should not know what is happening in this room—”
“What's up? Are there any traces of Kuroi Uta there?”
“K-you also know about Kuroi Uta?!”
“Carnation-san has told us a lot about strange events lately, so we also have to be ready if one day they will attack Riri-sensei again, or attack the academy.”
“Hiding something for too long is not good yes.”.
“Huh? Came-chan, Elder-chan, what are you talking about?”
“Ah t-it's okay! Elder-san just asked me something about the books on your shelf!”
Camelyum exclaimed quickly, The Elder immediately nodded. Riri, who did not seem to care so much, again continued his steps up to the 2nd floor.
