Chatting with Croana about magic tools, time had flown by before I knew it.
Perhaps because of the sheer number of magic tools or her enthusiasm, the conversation never ended, and her explanations were also incredibly skillful. Thanks to that, whenever I shared ideas for improvements or new creations based on my suggestions, she would react with adorable delight.
Now, after sharing dinner together and borrowing her bath, I was in Croana's bedroom. She had shyly asked me to wait for her there.
Croana's bedroom had a table, a workbench, and a single double bed. The room was lit by the same warm orange glow from magic tools as the rest of her house.
I was dressed casually, sitting on the bed that had been adjusted in height for Kroana.
...Given her body size, even a double bed must feel big. Because of my height, when I sat down my knees were a little higher than my waist.
The sound of the door opening made me look over.
「...How do I look?」
「...Beautiful.」
