Shield Hero With Barrier Magic

(Hiro's POV)

Hiro: "You want me to ride Mikasa from the front?"

Rose: "Yes, degozaru. I will be in the behind you while you are riding."

Hiro: "Umm... Why?"

Rose: "It's so that I can support you while you are riding my daughter, degozaru."

Hiro: "Umm, do you think Mikasa will be able to handle both of us?"

Rose: "I think she's pretty confident, degozaru. Right, Mikasa?"

Mikasa: "Rawr!"

And so, it's decided that I will ride Mikasa along with Rose with me in the front.

Hiro: "Alright, let's do it then."

Rose: "Wait, Hiro-sama, before we do it, I think it's better if you clearly explain what's going on to the readers. They might have the wrong idea with the above script."

Hiro: "Haa... It's no use, Rose. You don't know the readers too well. Their mind is already in the gutter. No matter how much I try to explain. They will always choose the Darkside. Perverts."

I climbed onto Mikasa. Normally, in fairy tales, the hero will be in the back and the heroine will be in the front so that hero can support the heroine from falling off from the horse. Rose got inspired by that type of story. So, she decided that she will support me from falling off from Mikasa.

Hiro: "Mikasa, ready?"

Mikasa: "Rawr!"

Hiro: "Let's take off!"

The moment I shouted it, Mikasa spread her wings wide and leaped into the sky.

Hiro: "Woohoo!"

Mikasa kept going higher and higher until we reached about the height of the mountain.

Hiro: "Mikasa! stop at this height."

Mikasa: "Rawr!"

I looked down. The point of view really changes when you look at the ground from the mountain and when you look at it while you are flying even though it's the same height. I looked along the horizon.

Hiro: "The scenery is really beautiful from here, don't you think, Rose?"

Rose didn't say anything but just hugged me tightly. I can feel her b.o.o.b.s pressing against my back. Oh, I forgot that there is this cliche development when the heroine is in the back. As a man of culture, I won't mention Rose about this.

Hiro: "Rose, you are scared, aren't you?"

Rose: "Looking at the ground from the mountain is fine but when I look at the ground like this, I am starting to become really afraid of falling, degozaru."

I turned around and sat in the direction of Rose to see her cute embarrassed bright red face. She again hugged me even though she is embarrassed. Must be really afraid. Well, I think she is embarrassed because she is the one who proposed this but she is the one who's afraid here.

Hiro: "Hehehe... So, Rose is afraid of heights huh."

Rose closed my eyes to hide her face from my gaze. I took her hand from my eyes.

Hiro: "Well, if you are that afraid, why did you ride with me?"

Rose: "It's... It's Hiro-sama's fault."

Rose is clearly panicking because of fear. She even stopped saying 'degozaru' at the end.

Hiro: "Hey, you are the one who proposed this! How is it my fault?!"

Rose: "No... I... I wasn't afraid of heights before because I didn't have emotions and Shadows are trained to die anytime! But Hiro-sama gave me emotions! And when I look down, I get afraid because I don't want to fall down and die! I started to get afraid of dying because I won't be able to be with Hiro-sama if that happens! I want to live with Hiro-sama! So, it's Hiro-sama's fault that I am currently afraid! Hiro-sama gave me emotions and made me completely head over heels for him! So, it's completely Hiro-sama's fault that I am afraid of death!"

The panic made Rose completely blurt out the words inside her heart. As for me, my heart went doki-doki with something coming that suddenly from Rose. I kept staring at her not knowing how to respond. Well, her methods to make me fall for her are working but not in the way they should.

That's right. I am falling for Rose. That's why, back at the mountain, when Rose was about to kiss me, I didn't kiss her back but I couldn't push her away. I think the day where I pull her myself is not so far. Haa... I have to tell Eclair and Rino about my current feelings.

I started patting Rose. I think that's the only thing to calm her down. And she is... sniffing me? Does Rose have smell fetish? Well, she calmed down a little though.

Haa... It's really nice. This situation. Rose hugging me while we are riding Mikasa. Hmm... Mikasa ?! Were we just flirting on our daughter's back ?!

Rose: "Hmm... Hiro-sama, I feel a little colder, degozaru."

Hiro- "Yep, I noticed it just now but Mikasa is slowly increasing the height."

Rose: "What ?!"

I can't currently see Mikasa since I am facing Rose.

Hiro: "Mikasa, could you go a bit lower?!"

Mikasa: "Rawr!"

She heard me and started going even higher. She is playing with us.

Rose: "Mikasa! What are you doing ?! Lower! Go Lower!"

Rose started panicking again. This time, Mikasa started slowly making her position from horizontal to vertical so that we won't be able to be on her back. This girl...

Hiro: "I think she is playing with us for ignoring her and flirting on her back, Rose."

And at one moment, I lost my grip. Rose kept hugging me. So, we started to free fall.

Hiro: "Air Strike Shield!"

I made the shield in the air to hold us in the air for a while. Mikasa made a 'rawr' as if mocking us and went down before us.

Hiro: "This will keep us in the air for the time being."

Rose: "But this will vanish, right? Will you be able to make another shield before we hit the ground, degozaru?"

Hiro: "Well, the cooldown If the time taken to fall was a linear function of height, I could. But unfortunately, according to physics from my world, time is a square root function of height. So, I can definitely say that I can't make another shield before I hit the ground."

She looked at me like she was mocking for a moment.

Rose: "I hate physics, degozaru."

The moment she said it, the shield in the air vanished and we started free falling while hugging each other.

Rose: "Kyaaaaaa!!!"

Hiro: "Yahoooooo!!!"

After a moment, Mikasa was also falling beside us at the same speed but not holding as if it's expecting something from us before she saved us.

Rose: "Alright! Sorry for flirting with your father on your back, Mikasa! Let us both flirt together with your father from now!"

And Mikasa immediately held us and spread its wings for deceleration. Seriously, Mikasa?

After Mikasa made the height stable and my cooldown period for 'Air Strike Shield' came to an end, I used it as a foothold in the mid-air again and got on Mikasa's back.
