Chapter 22: Haruka's milk?!
'Mm… Did I…'
I felt my consciousness return as I slowly parted my lids. It took me time but soon I realized that I have actually been reborn in another world. It would have been strange if I suddenly would have accepted this life of mine like I always belonged here.
The last I remember, was when I overused my Soul Energy, and at the end, fell asleep or maybe fainted to be precise. The previous body holder might be a full-fledged mage but not me.
'Umm… Why does it feel so soft… '
For some reason, I get the feeling that currently, my head is resting on something otherworldly. It was supposed to be my chair where I fell asleep but soon I parted my eyes, I was greeted by the dark green ceiling of the Council Office.
I know someone has shifted my position which made every hair strand of my body straighten up in alert before I lifted my back and looked to the nearest person I sensed. free(w)ebnovel(.)com
"Ara? Did you have bad dreams, Prez?"
My heart melted in an instant as I saw such a face just after waking up. I didn't know why and how Haruka-sensei was in the office and was giving me a lap pillow but I am sure, at the moment, I could no longer contain my facade at all.
I know I might be smiling foolishly just after waking up. Her round face tilted to the left in confusion before I shook away my thoughts and rested myself back on her lap.
"Please allow me to rest some more, Professor."
I knew the original Seth would have immediately shooed away anyone who tried to breach his privacy. But of course, I cannot be so heartless toward such a lovely lady, can I?
Sensei was undoubtedly flustered being used as a comforter again but well, she's the only person in front of whom I can be honest. She isn't that smart enough to suspect me.
"Y-Yes please do. Ah, but have you eaten anything?"
I knew she must have come to ask me something like that since yesterday I told her that I would be staying late in school before vacation. Such a considerate lady.
Her modest breasts were interrupting our eyes but this disturbance was fulfilling so I didn't complain and answered with a weary sigh.
"How can I… there were so many things to sort out that I didn't get the time to eat."
I tried my best to act pitifully but knowing this default frown I usually have, my acting must have failed. But fortunately, Haruka isn't that observant.
"Is that so… Then how about I give you some of my milk?"
"..."
For quite a long time, I forgot even to breathe as my mind went blank upon hearing her nonchalant remark. She said her milk, right?
I couldn't be daydreaming, can I?
And the position of ours as well is just perfect for me to get fed like a child. I mean it would hurt my pride as a man but we are talking about Haruka here.
Even though I knew it was probably not possible for her to let out some, I responded in affirmation.
**GULP**
"....I-I would like to give it a try…"

"Hey, you saw Young master today?"
Inside the Albeck mansion, two maids could be seen arranging a tea table with some cookies and cutlery being placed carefully at their proper positions.
One of them was a raven-haired maid who was working temporarily as a head servant, named Elly. And the person whom she took the position of, was standing just beside Elly.
Hearing Elly's words Lara raised her brows and spoke in a bland tone.
"I was trapped in my room for the whole day. How would I know?"
Elly realized that indeed Lara was ordered to stay in her room after what she tried to do in the morning.
"Anyway, what happened?"
Lara, by all means, wanted to know about her young master from whatever source. Elly saw her curiosity as with a sigh she began to narrate what she witnessed in the evening.
"Young master returned yet again late but today he was utterly annoyed about something. And also, even being agitated, he was holding a packaged milk carefully and took it to his room."
Lara blinked in astonishment since she had no idea, her young master had such a peculiar liking to milk. Even though he doesn't even add a drop of milk to his coffee.
For a second she thought to alter his preferred beverage but held back. Her master was already angry with her. She couldn't afford to offend him in any way anymore.
"Just don't talk uselessly Lara. You are being repulsive too much nowadays. Please keep your emotions for young master in check."
Hearing Elly's reprimanding her, Lara only smiled wryly and took the trolley. Just as she was about to step out she turned her head and spoke in a mischievous tone.
"Someone has to take the initiative right? Or the young master would never know how crazy his maids are for him, right~?"
