ALL NOVEL Alma
Historia Pov
"Why did you run again." While I was walking towards the chicken coop with light steps, I spoke to a chicken I currently had in my arms and stroked its head.
"Hmm... hmmm." With a grin on my face, I started humming happily. Somehow, ever since that night when Kaiser gave me something sweet for the first time, I've been thinking about Kaiser more often in my head.
And to this day, whenever I think about that embarrassing night with Kaiser, my heart skips a beat, and I get a strange feeling all over my body, which is most frequently described as a tingling sensation in the region of my pee.
"Hehehe."
When I allowed myself to become immersed in my imagination, I was taken aback when the chicken I was holding all of sudden became defiant. In point of fact, he began to pick at his wings aggressively, and after that, he began to run away from my arms.
"ahh... wait, chicken," I yelled out in shock, but as soon as the chicken took off, I couldn't help but laugh merrily.
"I wish Kaiser was here now, and then we can play to our heart's content on this vast ranch."
Oh, and I will also show him the horse I consider my favourite.
After that, I thought I heard the distant sound of someone calling my name, so I turned around to see who it was, but I couldn't find anyone.
Once more, I heard someone calling my name, but this time I could pinpoint the location of the person who was calling my name. "Historia..."
After that, I retreated a few steps and looked back at the path that led up to the farm's main entrance.
"Ka... Kaiser?"
I can make out two people who are currently walking in my direction, and one of them is a woman who is dressed in a long black robe like a nun.
And standing next to that nun was a young man who was dressed in black, from his long black pants and shoes to his black jacket, long white shirt, and long white sleeves.
However, what makes the boy stand out is the fact that he has white hair and red eyes, and the only other person I am familiar with who has this appearance is...
"kaiser..."
Yes, the person I've been waiting for.
- My Pov -
After that, Historia showed me around this farm, and the entire time we were together, she kept a warm smile on her face.
I can tell that Historia is very excited right now because she is very eager to show me every part of this farm without skipping any areas, and she has even told me what kinds of activities she does on this farm.
"Do you see how adorable she is?" Historia was ecstatic as she showed me a filly with white hair who appeared to be very submissive when Historia began to stroke her head.
"I hope I'll still be able to ride her when she's older."
"Yeah, I'm sure it would be a lot of fun," I said softly when I heard Historia's words.
But then I let out a small sigh while mumbling something to myself. "Yeah, I'm sure it's going to be a great time when this horse races between the legs of the Titans."
"did you say something Kaiser?" While she continued to stroke the little horse, Historia cast a curious glance in my direction.
"Are your parents not home?" I inquired while slightly angling my head in the direction of Historia.
But at that very moment, Historia appeared uncertain about what she should say. Her expression also looked nervous. She didn't even want to look directly at me.
"My father visits our home only on rare occasions, and when he does, he only stays for a short while at night. After that, he rushes off to take my mother to another place before leaving again."
After taking a moment to look at me, Historia resumed what she was saying, but only after I gave her a friendly smile., "Even though my mother is currently at home, I don't think it would be a good idea for you to see her."
When Historia's expression changed to one of sadness after she had finished saying that, I made an effort to conceal the grin that had formed on my face.
After that was said, I gave Historia a gentle pat on the head while maintaining a cheery expression on my face in an effort to comfort her.
"There must be at least one more place that I haven't visited yet, right?"
Due to the fact that it is still early, I have plenty of time to spend in this place, and consequently, I am not in a rush to meet Alma.
Historia's face began to break into a charming grin as she took pleasure in my tender caress. When she was finally content with the experience, she exclaimed with elation.
"Hmm... how about we go to my house? While we're there, I'll make you something to drink because I'm sure you're thirsty, right?"
After that, Historia started to pull on my hand again, and this time she led me towards her house. In the meantime, a peculiar glint appeared in my eyes when I took a quick glance in her direction.

After noticing the prompt screen that had suddenly materialized in front of me, I said to myself, 'It seems that after the events of that night, Historia's status points have increased quite satisfactorily.'
Because to tell you the truth, I don't really understand how this system works, but I can only move forward right now. Maybe this rapid development could also be happening because of Historia's kind and naive nature.
"Looks like it will be a little difficult to change her," I muttered in a low voice as I looked at Historia standing in front of me. My gaze, which had always shown gentleness, now looked cold.
As the two of us made our way closer to the house, I became aware of a large tree that cast a shadow and appeared to be somewhat familiar.
And there seems to be someone taking refuge underneath the tree while reading a book with one hand. As the breeze blows through the extensive and shade-giving tree, the leaves can occasionally be seen falling on the person who is sheltered below it.
The scene paints a picture of a person who is either unconcerned about the events transpiring around her or who is actively trying to block out the realities of the world around her.
I am aware that Historia is currently clenching her fist more tightly around mine, and I can even detect a trace of melancholy in her eyes.
I was trying to see the face of the person hiding behind the tree while Historia worked up the courage to walk past that person without saying a word.
Nevertheless, when I found out who that person was, I was a little taken aback...
"Alma."
