I was reincarnated on an island where the strongest species live, so I will enjoy a peaceful life on this island – Chapter 44 – Blood wine

After having lunch, we just sort of do what we always do for a while.

I figured Tiltue would return to normal soon, but she’s showing no signs of recovering. She’s in the forest, taking in the sunlight that filters through the trees and looking like she’s enjoying it.

We have a house now, but we’re still outside during the day a lot. Reina is reading some book, and I’m exercising.

And Wil is looking at us like she’s bored.

“Hey, aren’t you going to do anything interesting?”

“Well, what can I say…”

“You’re a young man and woman living together. Don’t you, you know, let out this and that day and night?”

“We don’t.”

Not to mention that I have incredible power. If I start to think about that stuff and can’t control myself, that’d be terrible.

That’s why I’m careful not to have those thoughts towards Reina. And I really wish this person here stopped trying to ruin that.

“…Well, you will stop saying that soon enough.”

“What do you…”

What did she do? Before I can finish my question, I feel something on my back.

It’s light, so…

“Tiltue? What is it?”

“Guaaa, guaa…”

“Hn?”

She seemed fine just a few minutes ago, but something’s different. She’s letting out kind of loud cries, and rubbing against my back like she wants attention.

“What’s wrong, Tiltue? You can take a nap if you’re still sleepy.”

“Guaaa.”

She lets out a very sweet voice, like one you’d expect from a baby. That kind of makes me feel like doing whatever she says, but I have to check what’s going on first…

“Wil, what did you do?”

“Nothing. I just treated you to a nice meal.”

“What was in it…”

I question the culprit, but then I feel something warm and soft on my back.

Tiltue is there too, so what…

“Nfufufufu. Arata…”

“Wai, eh!?” R-Reina!?”

“Warm.

“Wai!? Don’t rub against me like that…!!”

Unlike Tiltue’s and Luna’s for example, Reina’s body is mature and very soft.

When she clings to me like that, it’s only natural that her chest will hit…

“No, stop…”

“Arata. Hnfufufufu.”

“Wil! Tell me what you did!!”

“Ku, kukukukuku! You don’t have to yell, I can hear you!”

“Then answer me!”

“I told you many times already. I just cooked you a meal. With no poison, or strange ingredients.”

She says as she takes out what looks like a wine bottle from somewhere.

When I was reincarnated into this world, I got the ability to read, write, and speak the language. That means I can read what she’s pointing to.

Alcohol.

“See? No poison or anything weird. I just used regular alcohol that’s normally used for cooking.”

“…”

“A-ra-ta.”

“Guaa…”

Reina and Tiltue both press themselves against my body like they want to be pampered. Cute… Yes cute, but at this rate, that cuteness might defeat me.

“Hm… But it’s not working on you either. What a shame, I thought I would get to see someone more fun.”

“At least there’s that! But this situation is…”

Both their faces are bright red from the alcohol, and as Reina looks up at me with her slightly blurry eyes, she looks cute in a way that would normally not be possible for the usually sharp Reina.

“Guaa…”

And Tiltue, who lets out a sweet sounding voice like she wants me to stop only paying attention to Reina, is more frantic than usual.

“Kuh.”

“Still, the image of a man being cornered by two drunk girls isn’t all that bad either.”

“You sure are having fun, aren’t you Wil!?”

“I sure am! The contrast between your usually composed self and your bewilderment about being the only one sober there is especially amusing!”

I guess she really did tell the truth. She didn’t use poison, only alcohol.

But looking at how these two are acting, I can only imagine it was pretty shady alcohol.

“I guess I’ll ask. Was it normal alcohol?”

“Of course… Blood wine with plenty of my magic energy.”

“…What happens when someone drinks that?”

“If you drink a lot, you go crazy enough to become my underling, but the small quantities used for cooking will just make most people nice and drunk.”

She giggles cheerfully like a kid, exposing her fangs, but what she’s saying doesn’t sound cute at all.

We drank alcohol in the divine beast people’s village, but while Reina’s face also turned red, it didn’t look like she got drunk.

“Nfufufufufu. Arata. Arata…”

“Ah, geez! I’m right here, you don’t have to keep saying my name.”

If this is the result after drinking a small quantity, how easy is it to get drunk on the stuff this vampire used…

“Arata’s body is warm. Pat my head.”

“Eh…”

Guaa…”

“You too Tiltue?”

Unlike how it usually goes, both Reina and Tiltue want to be pampered. I decide to just do what they want and pat their heads, and both squint like they’re enjoying it.

“Hehehe.”

“Gua.”

“…Wait, this is kind of.”

Tiltue, well, she’s cute but not that different from usual. But the same can’t be said for Reina.

Unlike the usually dignified and kind of cool beautiful girl, this girl that wants to be pampered is adorable.

I can’t take this anymore.

“…Wil.”

“Hn? What?”

“Just make sure they don’t get in danger! If you don’t, I’m gonna be really mad!”

I get them off me, and jump onto a tree.

“A-Arata!”

“Gua!”

“Kuh!?”

I look down and see them looking at me with sad looks on their faces, but I’m not letting that beat me.

I move away from that place by jumping from tree to tree, to put as much distance as possible between me and their voices.
