Chapter 1765: Tea Party with Illness ?

<Author’s Notes>

I’m not feeling well, so today’s chapter will be short.

The tea brewed by Illness-san looks, at first glance, like ordinary black tea, but it has a slight rose fragrance and is somewhat like rose tea.

This time though, it wouldn’t just be me drinking, Illness-san and I are drinking tea together. Illness-san pours her own portion of tea and sits across from me.

[Well then, I’ll immediately have some then.]

[Yeeeees. I hope it suits your taaaaaste.]

As soon as I took a sip of the tea, a gentle rose fragrance wafted into my nostrils, followed by a delightful taste of black tea spreading in my mouth. In terms of flavor, it’s slightly sweet and has a rather deep taste…… It’s the flavor of tea that suits my taste.

[It’s delicious. I like the sweet taste, and the smoothly fading rose fragrance is also pleasant.]

[Kuhihi, I’m glad you liked iiiiiit. I was a bit worried this tiiiiiime, so I’m glad it suits your palaaaaaate.]

[Worried? Ah, no, I don’t mean to be rude, but that’s kinda unusual.]

Illness-san is always calm and gentle, portraying the demeanor of a mature and composed lady. Considering her high skills and abundant knowledge, there’s usually a sense of adult composure about her, so it was a bit surprising to see her expressing some anxiety.

No, of course, it’s just normal for Illness-san to feel anxious about things too but……

[Today’s tea time is a biiiiiiit special, as I mixed Kaito-sama’s favorite taaaaaste with my favorite fragraaaaaaance, and blended them so that they would work well togetheeeeer. The combination itself was successfully dooooone, but I wasn’t sure if it would suit Kaito-sama’s palaaaate, so I was a bit worriiiiiiied.]

[I see…… No, it’s totally delicious. In terms of taste, as Illness-san said, it aligns with my preferences, and the rose fragrance is also quite pleasant, making the overall drinking experience enjoyable.]

[That’s good if that’s the caaaaase.]

It was a little surprising, but also somewhat refreshing.

[……Kuhihi. Howeveeeer, this is alsooooooo good.]

[Eh?]

[It’s nice to brew tea that suits Kaito-sama’s preferenceeeees, but sharing our favorites together like thiiiiiiis is also very delightful. Knowing that Kaito-sama enjoys the things I like makes me happyyyyy.]

As Illness-san said that with a smile, how should I say this…… her expression seemed somewhat unlike usual…… I wonder what it is? It’s hard to put it into words, but it was a captivating smile that strangely made my heart racing.

The way she told me she was happy sharing what she likes with me, this might sound conceited of me, but it sounded as if she was saying I’m special…… Having such a thought makes me feel embarrassed, but it does make me happy.
