“Today, Alim was also quite adorable, was she not?”
“She sure was. Just how can she be this cute?”
Lilo and Myuri, who were spending the night in the same room and were currently wrapped up in blankets, talked to each other.
“I’m sure it must be because of who she is.”
“It’s just as you say, Myuri. It’s because she’s Alim! By the way… there’s this group called ‘Association of Earth Member Adorers’, but…”
“Were we not the very first of her fans?”
“”We sure were!””
Maybe because they had spent the whole day eating tons of delicious food, the two girls were in a better mood than usual.
“Hah… At any rate, I can’t think of anything else about Alim to talk about.”
“That is true… Over these past few days, we did nothing but talk about her, day and night…”
“What should we talk about today, then?”
“Orgo and Ruin are not with us, so might we have a girl’s talk?”
“Sure thing.”
Unknowing that their male party members had a conversation along the same lines on the same day, the girls decided to talk about their love interests. This was a current fad.
“Then… who’ll start?”
“Let us decide with a game of rock-paper-scissors.”
As a consequence, Myuri lost and got stuck with being the first to talk about who she had feelings for.
It bears mention that they started this exchange with full knowledge of who each of them was interested in.
“I wonder, who do you like, Myuri~?”
“Alim!”
“Alim doesn’t count. She’s a girl.”
“But is she not in a relationship with Mika?”
“Those two are special! If it’s too hard for you to tell me directly, I can ask you questions.”
“Y-Yes please!”
Myuri braced herself for what was to come.
“To start with… Is it someone I know?”
“Yes.”
“Is he the same age as us?”
“Y-Yes!”
“Is he good-looking?”
“Ah… his face is certainly handsome. Though it is less the pleasant type… more in a rugged way.”
“So, he’s super-good looking?”
“Erm… yes!”
“Gotcha, I’ll tell Orgo ‘Myuri said that she thinks you’re super-good looking’.”
“Hey, Lilo. We both know who each other is interested in, do we not? So, could you not tease me like this? I really do like him…” Myuri begged her while fidgeting.
Lilo stroked her head a bit roughly.
“I know that!”
“Eeek! Hang on…”
“How amusing~.”
“J-Jeez! It is your turn now!”
“Sure, sure, hit me with whatever!” Lilo threw out her overly voluptuous chest.
After being hit by a short stab of jealousy at seeing this, Myuri started her interrogation.
“Now… brace yourself.”
“Alright, the boy I like has pretty blonde hair that’s a bit long for a man… he’s gentle and good looking, then he’s the second prince of this country, and-”
Myuri stopped the other girl’s monologue with a “Please wait.”
“Lilo… I know that Ruin is the one you like.”
“Yeah, he sure is.”
“…You are so mean. You just made fun of me, so you should let me do the same.”
“Not~ happening.”
“…”
After falling silent for a few seconds, Myuri brought her hands to Lilo’s cheeks and squeezed them. She didn’t stop at squeezing, instead grabbing and pulling them.
“They might not be as good as Alim’s, but they do have a nice feel to them.”
“Hyuri! Shtob dat~.”
“I do not want to. I will tease you, Lilo. And until I think of a way, I will continue doing this.”
“Shtob~!”
Five minutes later, Myuri, who had an idea, let go of Lilo’s cheeks while grinning.
“Phew…”
“Lilo…”
“W-What is it?”
“My apologies, I couldn’t think of anything.”
“Erm… then what are you-”
“I couldn’t think of a way to tease you with words, so I shall demonstrate my frustration with actions,” Myuri stated and abruptly grabbed one of Lilo’s breasts.
However, it ended up too big for a single hand to grasp. She had started to fondle the other girl’s chest with the plan to tease her, but it achieved the opposite and only served to open a gaping wound in her heart.
“Gh… Myuri. Stop that…”
“Lilo, how can this be? Just how many times bigger are yours compared to mine?”
“W-Well…”
“For yours, a single hand is not sufficient… while mine are not even fist-sized…” she complained while moving her hand.
Incidentally, this behavior of hers hadn’t started just now. Since four years ago, it occurred roughly once every one to two months1.
“But Myuri. Aren’t Alim’s the same size as yours?”
“The haves will never understand the have-nots. Alim’s… are already slightly bigger than mine. Mika’s are large enough to be clearly visible. Princess Karua inherited hers from her mother, the queen. Those three are only 12 and 13 years old, you see? And how old am I?”
“Eight- oh, shoot2!”
“Boo-hoo…”
At this point, Myuri burst into tears. That said, she wasn’t actually crying, though she felt so much like it, she started acting as if she was.
“Lilo~… Orgo prefers girls with big breasts, does he not…?”
“No, I’m pretty sure he isn’t that type. Moreover, Alim has a normal chest for her age, and she’s still insanely popular with men, isn’t she?”
“T-That is because of her age! Moreover, with their looks, both Alim and Mika3 have a beauty you only get once in a thousand years!”
Myuri started shaking all over. As a result of voicing her own grief, she started crying for real.
“You’re cute, Myuri,” Lilo tried calming her down. “Having large breasts will only give you shoulder pain, and sleazebags will stare at them, neither is a good thing, you see? Cheer up, Myuri! You have your own charm!”
“Boo-hoo… Lilo~!!”
Myuri moved over to Lilo’s bed, crawled under the blankets and hugged the other girl. In a way so her head came to rest on the bountiful chest. And, surprisingly, she fell asleep right away in that position.
“Hah… It’s not like I don’t have my share of worries either… Ruin… he’s a prince, so could someone like me… Oh, well. Time to sleep.”
TL notes:
This chapter mirrors chapter 278, both in theme and the fact that it doesn’t give us any new information or insight whatsoever (except maybe that the author is trying to tick off all the stupid boob-related tropes). I guess its saving grace is that it’s shorter, but it still feels like an utter waste of space.
Footnotes:
- The original is “1-3 times every 2-3 months”, which seems like a weird way to put it.
- Not sure a bout this. The original is じゅう…はっさいだね, which might be her trying to say eighteen (じゅうはち) but changing the second part to はっさい which can mean “disaster”.
- The original is アリムちゃん達二人は, so it might also mean Alim, Mika, and Karua (Alim and two others).
