Reincarnated as Itsuka Shido: Collecting Spirits as Lovers

Chapter 182 - Oops!

"Are you ready for tonight's action?" Princess Renner's smiling face faded and was replaced by a serious one.

"There are also many adventurer's with me during the raid so, it should be alright." Shido simply shrugged casually but he didn't tell her that he could eliminate all the six fingers all by himself since he thought that it's not really necessary.

"...If you say so." Princess Renner's lips twitched a bit when she saw how nonchalant Shido was, but she know his strength so she could only shake her head. Though it would also be interesting if he would be beaten so she could keep him and take care of him, but Princess Renner knew that the chance of him loosing we're not even one percent.

"Then, I will go back first and prepare." Shido bid farewell to Princess since he felt that she was thinking of something strange again so he decided to leave with the excuse of preparing for the raid. But before he leave, he didn't forgot to talk to Lakyus. "See you tonight, Lakyus"

"H-Hmph, who would want to meet you again?!" Lakyus turned her head to the side since she was embarrassed facing Shido.

Shido on the other hand was already used to her weird antics so he didn't react much and nodded at the rest of the members of Blue Roses, but his gaze lingered on Evileye for a bit longer before he left the guild.

After Shido left, Princess Renner also decided to leave since wiping out the Eight fingers were actually just her side goal. Her main objective was to meet Shido again, after all, he left a deep impression on her before and her desire couldn't help but scream for his presence.

Shido's figure kept appearing on her mind and almost replacing her initial desire for Climb. She didn't really know why she was so attracted to Shido but this strange feeling only fuel to her new interest.

However, she also know that Shido wouldn't be easy to deal with especially since she could tell how powerful he truly is. His physical prowess and dangerous spells made him in a different level than a normal adamantite adventurer and even heroes. 'I wonder how his power is compared to the Slane Theocracy's Antilene Heran Fouche?'

Princess Renner had this weird thought couldn't help but anticipate for them to fight, but the chance of them meeting each other would be so low, especially since Antilene Heran Fouche live in Slane Theocracy.

"Lakyus, he's gone now, you can now stop looking at the door." Gagaran, said with a teasing grin. It was the first time she saw Lakyus showing such a womanly face so Gagaran wanted to tease her leader. Usually Lakyus was serious during mission and having fun with them when they didn't have mission. But Lakyus can also be quite weird Gagaran often heard her talk to herself while muttering weird sentences like the sword would consume her or she would be posses by the darkness inside the sword and such things. But as time passed by, Gagaran knew that Lakyus had something wrong with her head.

"Mn." Lakyus simply nodded in daze but she was still staring at the door where Shido exited. Seeing this Gagaran, Tia and Tina couldn't help but shake their head and thought 'She had completely fallen.'

Evileye on the other hand didn't join them, instead her mind was also thinking of Shido. His meaningful gaze he showed her before he left made Evileye feel strange as if he was hinting something. But for now they needed to prepare for the battle with the Eight Fingers since she knew that it would be quite hard for them, not including Shido.

...

"I'm back." Shido returned to the room he and Rumia booked and saw that both her and Tuare we're chatting with smiles on their faces. It seemed that Tuare was slowly recovering from her trauma with the help of Rumia.

"You're back Shido-san." Rumia's eyes brightened when she saw Shido returned and she was like a dog wagging it's tail happily for the return of her master.

"What are you two talking about?" Shido smiled and naturally patted her causing a blissful smile to appear on Rumia's face.

"We're talking about you, Shido-san~" Rumia said with a smile feeling happy with Shido patting her head. However, she forgot to call Shido by his other name and just as expected Tuare reacted.

Tuare felt that she was left out and felt jealous of Rumia when she saw how happy she was when Shido patted her head with care, but he attention was caught when she heard Rumia call Shido with a different name.

"...Shido?" Tuare muttered questioningly.

Hearing her voice, Shido's lips twitched and look at Rumia who returned her gaze at him playfully while sticking out her tongue. Shido sighed and decided to forgive her since she was cute. He then look at Tuare who was a bit puzzled and thought that he should explain it to her.

Shido walked towards the bed where Tuare was sitting and sat next to her. "Tuare you heard Rumia calling me with a different name right?"

Tuare was confused but she nodded.

"Actually, Acheval was just a fake name I created. Itsuka Shido is my real name, however, it would be better if you could call be by my alias since I would attract a dangerous person if I used my real name." Shido said to her seriously while looking at her eyes. This caused Tuare to be shy since Shido was staring at her so closely with their distance only a few inches from each other. But when she heard that Shido would be in danger, Tuare's mind quickly became sobber and she nodded her head vigorously.

"Good." Shido was satisfied with her answer and patted her head.

Tuare felt Shido's hands touch her head and she felt that it was really warm and comfortable. Now she understood why Rumia showed a blissful face when Shido was patting her head.

On the side, Rumia cheeks puffed since she also wanted to be patted but she didn't interrupt them.

"Rumia, come over here."

Seeing that Shido called her over, Rumia became elated and nodded "Un!". She then move towards Shido happily and receive his pats.

...

While the two were enjoying their time with Shido, Clementine was on work. After pulling out her Stilettos from the body of a guard, she wiped it clean and look at the sky with a sigh. "Haaa, I wonder what master is doing?"

If Clementine knew that Shido was pampering two girls at the same time while she was working her ass off, she might gone mad in jealousy.
