About Me Being Picked Up by Tallulah for Adoption

After the darkness passed, Orson opened his eyes and confirmed that he had woken up from the inexplicable dream.

"Are you awake?"

Skadi's voice came from his head, and not only that, but Skadi's red eyes were looking straight at Orson.

"Hmm...it's warm and soft, huh?"

The soft and very comfortable touch on the back of the head, the wonderful perspective of being able to see the sky and Skadi's eyes at the same time, the faint fragrance emanating from the other person——

These clues made Orson deduce in an instant: he was enjoying the lap pillow service of the deep-sea hunter on deck.

"Wooah!? No, I'm sorry—boom!"

Orson, who understood the situation, raised his head in a hurry and wanted to get up from between Skadi's legs, but his forehead collided with the tip of Skadi's nose who was leaning over to check if Orson was okay.

"—"

Skadi got up a little shaky, covering his nose with one hand after taking a "head hammer" just now.

"Aw, aw, aw, aw... that, I'm really sorry, Miss Scarty!"

Orson also rubbed his smoldering forehead, and hurriedly nodded to Skadi to apologize.

Skadi let go of his palm, but fortunately, only the tip of his nose became a little red, and there was no nosebleed.

"I'm really, really sorry, Miss Scarty, I just caused you trouble!"

Although Orson had no way of judging how long he had slept on the lap of the little killer whale by the position of the moon in the sky, but being pillowed in this position by an "unfamiliar" girl, especially on the iron deck with cold wind, was a Made Orson very guilty.

"Ah."

Unlike Orson who hastily apologized, Skadi still had a blank expression. She nodded slightly to express that she had received Orson's apology, and then—

"Speaking of which, Miss Skadi, why are you... woohoo!?"

Skadi barely showed any signs, and her pale pink lips moved directly towards Orson.Orson, who was still looking for a topic, was taken aback, and hurriedly dodged to avoid the sudden attack of the killer whale.

"?"

Facing Orson who was dodging in a panic, Skadi, who had attempted a KISS, tilted his head, as if he didn't understand why the young man "dodged himself after apologizing".

"Calm down, Miss Skadi?! You, you, have you been blown for a while, so you are a little confused now? Also, or did you mean that the behavior just now was not to kiss me?"

Noticing that Skadi was still ready to go, Orson vigilantly stuck to the edge of the overtime fence, preparing to avoid the kissing thrust of the killer whale like a bullfight, and at the same time hurriedly asked the other party what was going on.

"Not a kiss."

"Let me just say, it seems that I misunderstood—"

"It's a tongue kiss"

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!?"

Orson, who had just been relieved, wailed again.

"Why, why are you suddenly talking about kissing with tongue!?"

Orson blushed and complained loudly, but this expression made Skadi stunned for a moment.

"It's our common sense to kiss with tongue when apologizing."

"Cough cough cough!"

Skadi's serious words made Orson almost spit out the glucose he lost before.

"That... I'm not Agor, Miss Skadi."

No way, Orson knew right away that this was another misunderstanding caused by the "Chimera" physique.

Although killer whales really have this custom, it's incredible...

Orson patiently explained his physique and the possible impact to Skadi. Titi should treat herself as a member of the same family.

"So it was my misunderstanding."

After hearing Orson's explanation, Skadi said in a non-emotional tone as usual, but Orson judged from the action of the other party covering his face with a hat, it would be better not to mention this topic first.

After a while, after the evening wind finished cooling Skadi's face, the white-haired hunter finally put his hat back on his head.

"Why don't you go to the dinner party, it's for you."

Skadi asked Orson why he came here instead of celebrating with everyone at the venue.

"Hmm... Strictly speaking, I actually went to participate, but because I drank some wine, I wanted to go out to get some air, and then I fell asleep... I am really sorry for causing you a lot of trouble. "

"Well, nothing—"

Upon hearing the word 'apology', Skadi inevitably recalled the act of treating Orson as a killer whale just now, and ended up taking off the hat he just put on to cover his face.

——It’s better not to apologize yet.

Orson thought so, but he had made a mistake first, and the feeling that he couldn't express it was a bit strange.

"You drink poorly?"

Scarti asked Orson through the hat, and this time it was Orson's turn to be embarrassed.

"Uh... that's about it."

In fact, it can't be described as "bad" at all. A bottle of drink with an alcohol content of 1° can be delayed dry crushing Orson.

——Speaking of which, during this hospitalization, Dr. Kelsey seemed to have indeed talked about my drinking?It seems that the structure of 'Chimera blood' will react with alcohol, making the blood activity lower or something...?

Because the terminology is too technical, Orson only listened to the general idea.

"You're not what you expected, Orson."

After regaining his composure, Skadi looked at Orson and said softly.

"Different?"

Orson was a little curious. He had no contact with Skadi before. Of course, he didn't know what kind of existence he would be in Skadi's eyes.

"I thought you would be more of a leader type."

"Well, I'm not that kind of material. Compared with the so-called leader, the executor is more suitable for me. Let's forget about leading others."

Orson rubbed his hair and said in embarrassment, although he didn't know what kind of rumors Skadi heard, but Orson can be sure that he was definitely not a "leader" when he was in Rhodes Island.

"Um"

Skadi nodded, and soon there was silence between the two again.

"By the way, meeting in this way is also considered a wonderful fate. Would Miss Skadi also attend the banquet together?"

Orson thought of a good idea to break the silence and invite Skadi to meet with him in front of everyone.

"No, my existence will bring disaster."

Skadi directly rejected Orson.

——This kind of statement sounds a bit like the second disease.

Orson whispered in his heart.

"Although I don't know the specific situation, but I have the ability to [resist evil spirits], please don't worry, Miss Skadi!"

Orson patted his chest and said confidently.Of course, the so-called [evil warding off] is just nonsense by Orson, and the only thing he can ward off is the origin stone skill.

"……All right."

Skadi looked at Orson for a while, and unexpectedly agreed with Orson's statement.

"Then let me lead the way! Everyone is actually easy to get along with, but if Miss Skadi still feels uncomfortable, just run away!"

"The reason why it feels so good is that it can drive away disasters..."

"Miss Scati?"

"It's nothing."

Skadi was talking to himself, and then walked towards the banquet hall with Orson, and turned into the posture of RUA Orson again as he walked.

"Then here's the—err..."

Although I came to the banquet hall, it has already become empty, and even the light source has been turned off, leaving only the light blue moonlight coming in from the window.

"It's probably over."

Skadi made his own judgment on the situation at hand.

"Hmm... How long have I been lying on Miss Skadi's lap!?"

Orson thought that the banquet would probably come to an end, but he didn't expect that he would lie down until the end.

"4 hours and 34 minutes, my legs are a little numb."

"Wooooow! Isn't it—uh, cough cough."

Thinking that he had been lying on Skadi's lap for so long like a normal person, Orson blushed instantly, but luckily he resisted the urge to apologize.

"Some people came to look for you, but because you didn't wake up, they left."

"Don't say it, really don't say it..."

Orson squatted on the ground and wrapped himself with rest symbols to turn on the super autistic mode. Today is really embarrassing in all aspects.

Skadi didn't know why Orson reacted so violently, so he could only stroke Orson's hair for personal gain.

"By the way, although it can't be regarded as compensation, but idleness is idleness. Let me finish this banquet."

After calming down his shame, Orson stood up again and noticed the violin on the stage not far away.

"Can you play?"

Skadi noticed the instrument in Orson's direction and asked the boy.

"I'm also an operator code-named [Tuner], and my perception of syllables and melodies is pretty good. Of course, my strength is speaking and learning to sing."

Orson smiled, then set up the violin in a very standard posture, placing the bow on the strings.

With the swing of the wrist, the melodious and ethereal voice filled the meeting hall under the moonlight.

"..."

Skadi's pupils opened for a moment, but the hunter soon lost himself in the melody.

After a song, Orson carefully put the violin aside and looked at Skadi.
