ALSAR

Chapter 183

"Ge-Geez.... Haa... Haa.... Why... Why you guys didn't stop Sig-san sooner.."

I was dragged along by Sig-san but after a while, Chris-san and Fer-san chased after us and finally stopped Sig-san.

We didn't even reach 100 meters yet but because Sig-san had been pulling my arms and forcing me to run at a speed much faster than my usual running pace, my legs almost tripped. I really thought I was going to fall there.

"Well.... Sig was more enthusiastic than I thought so~ I'm sorry, Ren-chan~"

"My apologies, Ren-kun. I thought despite his personality, Sig would be able to notice but I guess I was wrong."

Fer-san nonchalantly added 'despite his personality'. I guess he must be making fun of Sig-san indirectly.

Well, Sig-san was the one that started running all of a sudden so I wasn't angry at Chris-san or Fer-san.

I glared at Sig-san, who was still holding onto my hands.

"Sorry, sorry. I got carried away."

Sig-san only gave me a light apology. He didn't look remorseful but well, I guess Sig-san didn't try to trip me intentionally.

"Haa... Next time, please think about our height difference before you act, Sig-san."

I sighed, deciding to let Sig-san go with just a gentle warning.

Geez, Sig-san, don't you know how much taller you are than me?? Good grief!

"The next time we run, I'm going to carry you in my arms, okay?"

"That's not what I'm upset about, you know... Geez... Oh well. As long as you adjust your pace according to me, I guess it's fine. Well, except during an emergency."

I couldn't help but to feel silly for being angry after hearing what Sig-san said so I ended up chuckling at him.

Carrying me while running... That's not what I meant....

"So, it's okay for me to carry you in my arms in case of an emergency, right Ren?"

"Well... I suppose that would be faster."

I'm prepared to get carried in their arms in case of an emergency but! The way he's looking down at me with those sparkling eyes! He's making me unable to refuse him! I mean, he's definitely faster than me and well... It can't be helped if it's an emergency I guess.

『Master, I'm sorry. I was too surprised so I...』

『Sowwyy ...』

Thinking that I was angry at them, Altair and Spica approached me and apologized to me timidly.

"I'm not angry with you two. Aww, you guys are really cute. Also, Spica, are you talking like that on purpose so I won't get angry? Well~ You are so cute~ I wasn't angry though, so there's no need to do that. There, there~"

While it is true that they are supposed to be my bodyguards, but I know there was nothing much they could do. After all, it's not like Sig-san was attacking me. He just dragged me along. I know that Altair and Spica won't hesitate to intervene if they sense my life is in danger, even if their opponent is Sig-san.

Or rather, they're not suitable to act as my bodyguard if they can't do that much. In any case, I know Altair and Spica didn't mean to let Sig-san hurt me so it's all fine. But still~ Seeing an adorable parrot and cat coming over to me all dejectedly like that... They're so adorable! In fact, Spica is definitely acting cute on purpose, right?? Although he wasn't meowing like an ordinary cat, but he deliberately made a spoiled sound, like a cat trying to win over their owner's heart after getting caught doing something bad. I totally fell for it! I can't help it! He's just so cute!!
