I Love Her

The Infinity Flame: My Useless Goddess

第三単：皆と温泉！？
Arc 3: In The Hot Springs With Everyone

After I saw Kanae's look alike, I went to the bath myself. The bath was spacious, it has a nice view but for some reason there was only two people occupying it, I included myself in that count. We talked for a while, I noticed that he was wearing a white and black headphones while taking a bath. His name is Kurogane Kaname, he has a jet black colored hair and amber colored eyes. I enjoyed talking to him, probably because I haven't seen a man the same age as me in this world so far.  When I entered the bath, it was still noon but before we finished it was night already. For some reason, I stayed in a good shape during my long time in the bath. 

Kurogane said that in the RPG World, the Hot Springs are built with a Spell that doesn't make the people dizzy nor wrinkle their skin for the customer to be able to enjoy the hot water for as long as they want to. Kurogane also told me that the RPG World is not the after life. He also told me that I probably didn't die, I was just 
summoned by someone or was just lucky to be pulled over here accidentally. 

I went out of the bath before Kurogane. After I got dressed, I went to the dining hall where I met Kanae, Meirou, Rurumi and Jannette waiting for me. 
「You're late, Suzushiro」Jannette who currently has her hair tied up into a pony tail, lift up her chopsticks calmly and elegantly. 
「Let's eat!」Kanae roughly lifted up her chopsticks and chowed down the meal that was in front of her

After we ate, Kanae, Meirou and Rurumi immediately felt sleepy so we went back to our room. Rurumi, Meirou and Jannette decided to sleep together at the other side of the room while Kanae and I laid our futon beside each other. 
「It seemed like those three are fast sleeper」I quietly laughed as I laid down on my futon and covered myself with the blanket and closed my eyes. 

・・・・・・・・・・

「Poke,Poke,Poke,Poke」
I felt like someone was poking my hand, trying to wake me up. When I slowly opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Kanae's face. The moonlight shined at Kanae, making her already beautiful face much more beautiful. Her bizarre colored hair slightly shined making her more charming. Suddenly, I felt a warm feeling in my chest after I saw the beautiful view. I had someone explain about these kind of things.....is that this feeling is.......Love, 
「What's wrong Kanae?」I asked her why she was poking my cheek, 
「Hand....can I hold your hand?」She asked me if she could my hand, since she is already holding my hand, 
「You can do what you like」I let her grip my hand. I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep. 
「Hey....Suzushiro?」Kanae talked to me again, preventing to going back to sleep. 
「What is it this time? Kanae? Bathroom?」I asked her if she wants to go to the bathroom, 
「I just wanted to say.......」Kanae stopped in the middle of her sentence. Her pressed her lips together and her eyes eyes started to get watery. She looked really sad, that was the very first time I saw Kanae showing a sad face. 
「What is it? Say it, take your time」I held her hand and told her to take her time on what she is trying to tell me. 
「I don't have that much time, their coming for me........so I will say it now. I'm sorry, Suzushiro for being a deadweight to you.」Kanae apologized to me, 
「Don't worry, you can be yourself. You're not a deadweight to me nor to Rurumi, Meirou and Jannette」I tried to reassure her, 
「That is not all I wanted to say......The thing I really wanted to say is that......I Love You.」 Kanae started to cry. Her tears flowed down out of her eyes. I wanted to say my answer to her, 
「Kanae....-」Before I could say my answer to Kanae, suddenly the windows of the room exploded. The Explosion was strong, strong enough to send me flying to the wall behind me. After the smoke from the explosion went away, two people emerged from it. 

「I~~Found you~~」A lady wearing only her violet underwear, carried Kanae and jumped out of the hole in the wall they created. One of the people that broke the wall was a man wearing a heavy armor. His white spiky short hair shined a bit because of the moonlight. 
「See ya later Retard. I really wanted to kill you for flirting with out Goddess but we don't have much time.」The man also jumped out from the hole. 

I immediately grabbed the Demon Sword, that Demon Lord gave me and I followed the two. Before I jumped out from the hole, Rurumi and Jannette was preparing themselves to fight too. 
「Hey! Give me back Kanae!」I pointed the Demon Sword at the two. The Demon Sword's black and purple colored blade gleamed under the moonlight. I felt the power of the sword supporting me. 
「Who were you again?」The White haired man looked at me with a disgusted face, 
「Suzunomiya Suzushiro.......」I stopped for a moment. In that moment I decided on something. I never wanted the power of The Infinity Flame but when I realized that in my current strength, I can't beat those two. So I decided to accept the title Lily gave me, 
「I am the 4th Generation of the Flase God of the Infinity Flame!」The purple flame enveloped the blade of the Demon Sword, enhancing it. 
「I will take back Kanae!」
