Nuomi x smile x reality

——I have passed through thousands of entanglements and encountered countless persistences

As soon as I see you, I feel relieved

--------------------------------

"Hey, Katakuri"

Seleustine was lying on the rocks on the shore, her long blond hair spread out. For a moment, it was unclear whether it was the sun or the soft hair that was dazzling.

Katakuri sat next to her, gently holding a strand of her hair with his fingertips, but his calm expression could give people a sense of peace and contentment.

"There are no snacks here that suit my taste. If I don't consume sugar, I will die..."

Selustine turned sideways and rested her little head on his lap, coquettishly.

"Do you still have golden roses? They are sweet after all."

Katakuri silently withdrew the palm that was stroking her hair, and looked at the unprepared girl who was leaning against him intimately and naturally, her amaranth eyes seemed to be full of smiles.

That's a softness that almost never appears on him

Katakuri is too tall and the two of them would be too eye-catching if they were shopping in town, so these days they always choose to meet at the beach.

The feeling of being watched all the time in the royal city is indeed too depressing for Seleustin. In comparison, the time spent with Katakuri every day is so peaceful and peaceful.

What's more, with Katakuri by his side, Seleustin would feel extra at ease for no reason.

Even if he is a little taciturn, even if there are very few things they can do together in Dressrosa, as long as Seleustine stays by his side like this, he pretends not to know that he secretly touches his long hair. hair

It's so complete that it makes people feel that there is no more danger.

Only the faint salty smell in the sea breeze and the sound of the leaves swaying are left.

Hmm...and her rogue and pitiful voice

"I want to eat snacks... snacks..."

Katakuri looked at his favorite long golden hair scattered beside him with Seleustin's movements, and couldn't help but lift up his fingertips and touch it lightly.

And before she noticed it, she took it back very quickly.

Cool and silky to the touch, very soft

He stared at his fingertips, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing his sudden distraction, Selustine puffed up her cheeks angrily.

"Hey, are you listening to me? Katakuri ~ Katakuri-san ~ Katakuri-sama ~"

As soon as she finished speaking, Katakuri stretched out his palm in front of her.

A magical scene happened. One by one, round glutinous rice dumplings popped out of his palm and floated in the air. They were white and fat and looked very happy.

Seleustin's eyes suddenly lit up. She sat up suddenly and looked at Katakuri with a moved face.

"Can this be eaten? Can this be eaten!!"

She was about to reach out and pick up a glutinous rice dumpling, but the small dumpling swayed away from her fingertips.

"hold on"

Katakuri's voice is terribly deep, but it's also very pleasant to hear, especially now that it's laced with a smile.

Seleustin waited eagerly and saw that Katakuri's outstretched right arm turned into a white and waxy rice cake. When it returned to its original shape, there was a small box in his palm.

The box was about the size of Seleustin's hand. This size was indeed too small for Katakuri.

What is that for?

Selustine took the box and opened it eagerly. What she saw instantly answered her doubts.

That's a whole box of golden rose petals

The glutinous rice dumplings are paired with sweet flower petals. It’s so good. I feel like my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

A fat, white dumpling floated over on its own and swayed up and down. As soon as Seleustin raised her head, she met Katakuri's eyes.

Gentle and calm, although it is not stated clearly, anyone can see the full indulgence and pampering

She seemed to be burned by the look in her eyes, and she looked away vaguely, and two thin blushes spread on her cheeks.

She pinched the cute and elastic dumpling with her fingertips, and covered it with a flower petal. As soon as she brought it to her mouth, she suddenly seemed to remember something and moved.

"Um... Katakuri is an esper, right?"

"Yeah, Nuo Nuo fruit"

Seeing how Katakuri had just turned his body into glutinous rice, Seleustin had a vague guess in his heart.

Nuonuo fruit ability person = a big piece of glutinous rice cake

So the small glutinous rice ball I am holding in my hand = part of Katakuri? ? ?

There's nothing wrong with this logic!

Seleustin instantly imagined how Katakuri painfully cut off part of her body, just to let her clear up the slander.

Brain Theater:

[Goodbye my little finger, now I have to give up on you]

[No!Master, we are one!Don't abandon me! ]

[I don’t want to either, but in order to satisfy Seleustin’s desire to eat sweets, you can only die heroically]

[Goodbye, my little finger! ]

He raised his hand, dropped his knife, and a small white glutinous rice ball flew out.

"Oh no, I can't eat your little finger!!!"

Selustine almost burst into tears. She let go of the small ball with golden petals and let it float back to Katakuri's palm.

Um?What little finger?

Katakuri blinked his eyes and twitched his brows, his usually calm facial expression almost breaking.

"It's okay, I know everything. These glutinous rice balls must be part of your body."

Seleustin rushed towards Katakuri, so moved that she completely ignored the confusion written all over Katakuri's face.

"It's so kind of you to do this for me, Katakuri."

[Your friend "Brain Master Seleustin" has sent you a good guy card, please sign for it]

The "good guy Katakuri" here is still receiving the impact of this series of information.

Eat?Sticky rice?Part of the body?

"puff……"

Selustine felt that the chest she was leaning on was trembling slightly. She poked her head out of Katakuri's arms, looking a little dazed.

Because, Katakuri smiled

The tall man put his arms around her waist, his curved eyes filled with a joyful smile.

He was still wearing the scarf, but Selustine could imagine that he must have raised the corners of his mouth at this moment, smiling happily.

Paired with those pointed teeth, maybe it will be unexpectedly cute?

She was so distracted as she lay in Katakuri's arms that she didn't notice that the dumpling she had given up just now wandered towards her again.

"I made this, don't worry"

"Let's eat"

Katakuri took the dumplings and handed them to her mouth, with a hint of laughter still remaining in her voice.

Even if she couldn't see her current appearance, Seleustin knew that she must be blushing like a cooked shrimp.

She opened her mouth obediently, bit into the glutinous rice ball, and wickedly licked Katakuri's fingertips with her tongue.

"Hmm~ It's delicious, the texture is soft and glutinous, and most importantly, it's very sweet!"

She narrowed her eyes with a look of enjoyment, then leaned back into Katakuri's arms, and rubbed her golden head on her chest with great satisfaction.

Katakuri is not a person who likes to laugh, but looking at her satisfied look, he couldn't help but smile.

Fortunately, I have a scarf, otherwise it would be too damaging to the image.

He thought this, without realizing at all that he no longer had a cold image to speak of in Seleustin's place.

That's not necessarily a bad thing

After eating a lot of glutinous rice balls, the sky also darkened. Selustine touched her bulging stomach and gave a crisp burp in a low voice.

When she opens her mouth now, she smells of glutinous rice and flowers.

"It's great. Nuo Nuo fruit... unlike my ability, it's basically useless at ordinary times."

Seleustin sat next to Katakuri, resting her head on his arm, looking up at the faintly visible fire clouds on the horizon.

"You ate a devil fruit? When did it happen?"

This was inconsistent with Katakuri's memory, so he asked aloud

"Let me think about it...about two years ago? I accidentally ate the Dream Fruit."

"As you can tell from the name, I can only make people dream, which is very suitable for people like me who hope to have sweet dreams every day."

Seleustin really couldn't be wary of him, and besides, her abilities were a bit useless, so there was nothing wrong with telling Katakuri

"What kind of dream"

Katakuri thought about the memories that accompanied her dreams, and vaguely understood the connection between dreams, her and memories.

"Huh? There are all kinds of things, but lately I like to dream about heaven."

Seleustin and Katakuri looked at each other, smiling and pointing to the sky above their heads.

“Watch the clouds”

Her smile remained gentle, but Katakuri felt her sadness for no reason.

Is it because there is no way to see the scene in the sky in reality and can only be achieved through illusory dreams?

He stared at those blue eyes. Seleustin's pupils, as blue and beautiful as the sea, probably still contained regret for not being able to see the clouds with their own eyes.

After thinking for a moment, Katakuri suddenly picked her up horizontally. After Seleustin hugged his neck in panic, his legs turned into white glutinous rice and took her up into the sky.

Seleustin slowly opened her eyes, and her clear and bright eyes reflected the golden sky at dusk.

and colorful warm clouds

"I accompany you"

She looked up blankly at the speaker. He hugged her steadily and his voice was always low.

"Don't you want to see the clouds? I'll accompany you."

No need for fancy words or exaggerated accents

Rather than making false promises, Katakuri chose to lead her directly to fulfill her long-standing expectations.

As for the feelings that burn everything, the sincere and pure words

At this moment, staying among the clouds, also staying in his heart

So beautiful, this is the first time she has seen the scene in the sky at dusk

As if the clouds were accommodating her, they were densely arranged and covered the entire sky.

Looking around, there are beautiful warm golden colors everywhere, and there are clouds everywhere that look vulnerable but are illusory and beautiful.

Selustine was always attracted by this kind of scene that was so beautiful that one doubted whether it really existed before her eyes. She was immersed in the indescribable magnificence and subconsciously stretched out her fingertips.

She couldn't touch it. The cloud looked so close, but in fact it was so far away from her that it seemed like thousands of miles away.

She was lost and devastated, but a warm and broad hand suddenly held her wrist and pulled her

There was a gentle touch on my fingertips, as if it was soft, but also as if nothing existed.

Katakuri takes her

Touched the cloud
