213 – Uninvited Guest (2)

“That means….”
Carmelo stroked her chin. Like deep into something.
In an instant, his fingers snapped.
“So you and that friend have been dating before.”
“That will work, right?”
“Um.”
She nodded her head in agreement.
“… I thought you would be more surprised, but you are unexpectedly calm?”
“No, I was quite surprised to see this. He seemed to have little interest in a relationship with the opposite sex. But I guess it was…. Mmm. This is true.”
“This is a different story. It’s a little bit like I said it myself, but it’s a personal matter, so please don’t spread it too much.”
“Yes, I have that level of shame.”
Carmelo smiles lightly.
For some reason, I couldn’t be relieved when I saw that smile.
‘Looking at you approaching me separately, it looks like you have an intention….’
I can’t pinpoint exactly what the plot was all about.
When you asked me to put a bridge in your place, I really just wanted to get closer to Mew… Is there no way If you gave up right away in the yard where even your hands were pierced, you would have given up, but you dare to come to me and ask me to create an opportunity to talk.
‘I didn’t approach anyone other than Mew.’
How many freshmen are Carmelo’s juniors?
In other words, since this senpai has a great interest in Mew, she tried to use me to approach her. I can only think of
.
“By the way, didn’t you say we were just friends earlier?”
“A friend. Now.”
It’s a bit of a strange friendship, though.
‘Because friends are right.’
“Hmm.”
What dude.
What are you complaining about again?
“Ezio.”
“Yes?”
“If you’ll excuse me, could you tell me a little bit about what that friend used to be like?”
Except for being rude.
Why me? I held back the words
.
“Certainly it wouldn’t have been the same in the past. If you did, you wouldn’t have anything to do with that friend. That’s right?”
“… Because it is a sensitive personal matter. I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can tell you.”
“I’m sorry. Between seniors and juniors.”
“It’s not my hobby to talk casually about people who aren’t here. I feel like I’m exposing a dark history and I’m sorry. And to be honest…….”
I thought about whether or not to talk about this, and finally decided to do it.
“Everything is visible. The senior has a dark heart for him.”
“… ….”
“If it’s enough for me to find out, he’ll probably know. What I said earlier is absolutely not a lie. Maybe next time I’ll cut my wrists without hesitation. He’s really ruthless, especially to things that get on his nerves.”
If you block my way, I will break you down. If you try to attack me, I will cut you down. If you really value your life, you’d better give up. Unless you want to be like some senior who almost became an eunuch after being trampled on by Myu in middle school.
“… You mean I’m getting on his nerves?”
“Wouldn’t the senior know that best?”
Let’s say that while looking at Carmelo’s scar.
He grinned.
“Yes, of course I know.”
She shrugged her shoulders calmly.
“But I like being fussy. Besides, because of your existence, I was able to be sure that it was long… This was a harvest that wasn’t as bad as I thought. Thanks for talking, Ezio.”
“… ? No, because your wrist is flying?”
“So you said that? I like being picky.”
A meaningful smile.
… He is also a person I don’t like.
‘Wouldn’t you wake up only when your neck is blown away, not your wrist?’
I can’t help it.
“I am speaking from the point of view of being friends with him, but I don’t think I will be able to look down on him kindly if he gets into trouble for no reason.”
“hahahaha, that’s scary. Are you going to engage in sparring?”
“If necessary.”
It would be better to give it a word like this. Don’t do anything weird in the same way.
… Actually, I wonder what will happen to Myu, who is at the level of a human weapon. Wouldn’t it be a reasonable decision to worry more about Carmelo here?
I’m going to tell Mew later to take it easy. What if you react too harshly and get expelled?
“Anyway, I will decline your request. It’s time to go have dinner with friends. The candy was good. Then.”
I left Carmelo standing in the middle of the hallway and turned my back. She started moving her steps toward the outside of the building.
I told you this far, but if you didn’t understand… At that time, Mu will handle it at its discretion. Again, this is the version where you have to worry about Carmelo, not Mew. If I intervened here, would it be more than a shrimp’s back bursting in a whale fight?
“… ….”
Thinking of that, until I headed for the front door, someone’s gaze on my back continued for quite some time.
#4
Weekend back.
“The first demonstration of a planetarium made by myself in the new 「Miracle Space」! Please come see us!”
“Wow, at Animal Cube, do you have a cafe or a cafe?” Lord, do you want a lot of masters to come… Kid, fuck I can’t eat it! I will not!”
“Model! A model has to come and promote it! The model didn’t come! Has anyone seen a first grader who looks like this?!”
“Gentlemen! Extremely trained magic is no different from magic! If you want to see a fantastic trick show that insults even the gods, come and see our “Trick Room” Performance! However, the admission fee is 400,000 per person….”
“Beep! There! Promotional text is inappropriate! And don’t get ripped off!”
As the Taeshin Festival, which will be held from next week, is approaching, the atmosphere of the Epic Class has become busier than usual.
Festival publicity and guide pamphlets are distributed, large banners are installed, senior members of the circle promote themselves, priests of the sun come in and out for religious events, etc… Things that had nothing to do with me were going fast behind the scenes.
However, it is an Epic class with significantly fewer students compared to other classes. Even if a booth is opened for each circle, it is unlikely that only current students will be able to create a festive atmosphere. That’s why those seniors will be going around all the frontier school districts starting this weekend and conducting promotional activities.
During the festival, students from other classes can enter and exit the Epic Class grounds without any problems.
Epic class facilities are also famous for their outstanding scenery. Above all, it was the class that received the most attention in Frontier. How many people will gather at the festival?
Should I run away now… ?
“aaah! Our model! Found!”
“… This.”
It’s not that I’m hiding too much, but Raylin-senpai starts jumping up and down when he finds me running hard from early in the morning.
Your body is sweating profusely, it seems that you have been running around to find me.
… What the hell am I even doing like this?
A deal that won’t help you more than no?
“Heh, heo, heo, heo… Ezio! Come with me! I need your help! Now is the time to let the world know about my original! If only you-“
“Oh, I’m not interested!”
“Ahh! Don’t go! … Aww!”
Raylin reached out her hand. But she didn’t reach me. She followed me and she fell over on the track. Then, from afar, she heard a sad cry, “Eng.”
… Is that a real senior?
I looked back for a moment, but it was obvious that it was a tiebreaker strategy, so I just left the track and ran away.
How far did he escape from that?
“Oh, here you are. Ezio.”
“Heeuk, heeuk… uh?”
I was catching my breath near Building 3 when I suddenly heard a voice and looked up.
There was a familiar face there.
“Uh, Rubia. Hi. Huh.”
Ruvia in uniform looked at me worriedly.
“Gwa, it’s okay… ? Are you sick?”
“No, just run. After.”
She raised her hand to indicate that she did not need help. It’s fine now. I take a deep breath and slowly relax my muscles.
“I think I just said something. Did you find me?”
“Huh? Ah… Yeah, it’s not urgent….”
“Say it comfortably.”
I don’t know Raylin, but if it’s Rubia’s request, she can do it. Except she’s got some urgent business, so she’s asking for a guarantee.
“That… Well. Mmm.”
Ruvia scratched her cheek as if in trouble. Why is it that you are putting so much effort into it? It didn’t happen once or twice.
“Is there a circle we joined?”
“Uh.”
“I asked the president over there if we were doing anything, but he said there was nothing in particular. Even if there is, probably freshmen won’t do it… So I asked if I needed any help. But he said he didn’t need it. You guys said to enjoy the festival comfortably….”
“Uh.”
“… That, so. We don’t have anything special to do during festivals, right? You have to run a booth like other circles, and it’s not like that.”
“Uh.”
“That, right? So that’s it. Therefore.”
I’m just nodding my head.
“Maybe….”
Rubia looked at me, then she suddenly looked to the side of her, to the blue distant sky, tossing her fingers together, with her usual expectant eyes, then she looked back at me. .
Before long, Rubia tightly closed her eyes.
“If it’s okay with you, maybe with me—”
“No.”
Perhaps she didn’t know that her sword would be rejected, Rubia opened her eyes with a silly expression on her face.
Her shoulders drooped like a wounded animal. She didn’t feel guilty, even though she was very sorry.
That’s because it wasn’t me who just rejected it.
“He is-.”
Someone grabbed my arm. A hand dug into the gap between her side and forearm. It was a very natural behavior, so no one tackled it.
“I will go with you.”
Black hair rustled at the edge of his field of vision.
I casually turned to her side and saw her elated face with the corners of her mouth raised loosely. Suddenly, she turned her gaze to me and smiled.
“Isn’t it? Ezio.”
Mew crossed her arms and pushed her shoulders tight.
She was startled and tried to let go of her arm, whoagh. Never let go This tremendous strength, our Mu is right.
… But why is he here?
“Hey, what is it? When did you come?”
“Just now?”
The head tilts very slightly towards me. Wow, your voice tickles. I heard it right next to me, so it was like whispering in my ear.
“Let’s talk about this for now. I’m hot.”
“Yeah, no.”
“Because I sweat too much?”
“I like the smell of sweat, right?”
“… ….”
It’s wrong to try to beat this guy with words. Anyway, I did something wrong, so stop sniffing the scruff of her neck. Don’t sniff, please.
“No, you….”
Since Mu’s intrusion, Rubia has been in a somewhat dazed state.
Yes, I know how you feel. Why would he want to be here? Because I’ve never had anything like this before.
But that’s the same for me.
“I should be able to endure it because it is embarrassing when someone tries to hit the ball without knowing the subject. Why are you annoying? If you have any complaints, tell me straight up. Honestly…. Ah, was it too hard for someone who couldn’t be honest all his life?”
Why are you like this?
Really.
