Under the influence of the atmosphere, the two embraced and kissed for a long time, finally parting reluctantly after five minutes.
The young girl's cheeks were already flushed with an unnatural redness due to shortness of breath,
while Yuto gently stroked her little head, as if comforting a child.
Just then, Furina seemed to suddenly realize how... bold her recent actions had been.
Although everything that had just happened was a natural occurrence under the dual influence of atmosphere and emotion,
when she recalled it all... she couldn't help but feel a little shy.
Just thinking about the scene made Furina's heart flutter, and the temperature of her cheeks involuntarily rose.
After pondering the reason for a while, Furina ultimately chose to give up thinking.
Since everything had already happened, she would just let it continue to develop naturally.
Thinking this, Furina buried her head in Yuto's embrace as if giving up, then whispered in a voice barely audible like a mosquito:
"Yuto... I'm a little tired..."
Hearing this, Yuto gently blinked, and then a smile of understanding appeared on his face.
He, of course, knew where Furina's current state came from, but it was best not to expose it at this time.
Although Furina wouldn't get angry with him, she was a girl after all, already very shy, and if he exposed her, she would truly be mortified.
Thinking this, Yuto softly hummed, then picked up the young girl sitting beside him by her waist.
"Whoa!"
Amidst Furina's gasp caused by suddenly losing her balance, Yuto directly held this fragrant, soft little blue cake in his arms.
He lowered his head slightly, looking at the young girl with flushed cheeks lying in his arms, a gentle smile appearing on his face, and then continued to reduce the distance between himself and Furina.
Seeing this, Furina nervously closed her eyes, her restless little hands instantly grasping the corner of her clothes out of tension.
Looking at Furina's nervous yet somewhat expectant expression, Yuto was first taken aback, then chuckled and shook his head.
Just as he had expected, Furina, with her tsundere personality, was to some extent both bad at and loved playing intimate games.
However... Yuto was no easy target either.
He leaned down slightly, gently kissed Furina's exquisite, doll-like face, then walked steadily towards the bedroom, carrying her.
Furina, perhaps because she didn't feel the touch she had imagined, cautiously opened her eyes.
Looking at the steadily walking Yuto, Furina felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
—This truly confirmed Yuto's definition of Furina in terms of intimacy: both bad at and loved playing.
Of course, Yuto didn't dislike this.
...
Perhaps because she had only just moved in a day ago, or for some other reason, Furina hadn't prepared a second bedroom.
This meant... Yuto had only two options for resting here.
The first was to share a bed with Furina and sleep embraced.
The second was to make do on the sofa for a night.
Yuto asked himself, he considered himself a true gentleman, and... looking at Furina's current state, she didn't seem ready to share a bed.
It was the same as before, even though their emotional journey had lasted for four hundred and eighty-nine years, after truly confirming their relationship... many things still needed to take time.
However, Furina didn't seem to think so.
After Yuto had placed Furina on her bed and was about to leave her room, he suddenly felt something tugging at the corner of his clothes.
Yuto subconsciously looked back and saw that Furina had buried her small face in the pillow, but she had still reached out... and pulled the corner of his clothes.
Yuto was momentarily puzzled, then slowly leaned down, half-kneeling by Furina's bed, and softly asked:
"What's wrong?"
Furina gently shook her head, then muffledly said:
"I want you to rest well, but you definitely won't rest well on the sofa..."
"Even if you are an Immortal Spirit, you are still human now, and if you don't rest well, your spirit will be very poor..."
"So..."
Furina hesitated, as if engaged in a rather intense internal struggle.
Although Furina didn't continue speaking, her increasingly forceful grip on Yuto's clothes expressed everything she wanted to say.
Yuto looked down at the small, forceful hand, then looked up at the young girl still burying her head in the pillow, and chuckled as he shook his head.
For someone like Yuto, expressing his intentions through words... was less effective than putting everything into practice.
Words were pale and powerless, but actions were tangible and impactful.
He gently took off his shoes, then very naturally put his arm around Furina's slender waist, slowly climbing onto Furina's somewhat small bed.
Under the impetus of Yuto's recent movements, the cute little blue cake's face went from being completely buried in the pillow... to facing Yuto.
Yuto looked at the blushing, shy young girl before him, an involuntary smile appearing on his face.
He didn't know what was wrong with him lately; whenever he saw Furina blush... he particularly wanted to laugh.
As an Assistant Administrator, his facial control should have been quite good, but this ability instantly failed in front of Furina.
Even Yuto himself couldn't explain why this happened.
"Perhaps... seeing her, who is usually a bit tsundere, show such a shy expression is a great pleasure in itself?"
Yuto couldn't help but think so.
Looking at the smiling Yuto before her, Furina pouted slightly, then gently tapped Yuto's chest, and then, as before, buried her little head in Yuto's embrace.
Almost the moment she rested her little head in Yuto's arms, a comforting sense of peace instantly enveloped her.
"This... is much better..."
Furina whispered, then peacefully closed her eyes, falling asleep at an unimaginable speed.
Feeling the steady breathing of the young girl in his arms, Yuto gently shook his head, then embraced her and likewise closed his eyes.
For Furina, Yuto's embrace held an inexpressible sense of security.
And for Yuto, wasn't the cute little blue cake also a calming agent that could settle his mind full of complicated matters?
Perhaps... this was what was called "good compatibility"?
