Chapter 192: Munch Munch Ultimate Discussion
It was my mistake.
This time, it was my mistake to the point where I can’t even make excuses.
A crowd gathered in the Academy City.
It’s only natural to imagine that it’s due to the S Rank.
Moreover, if it’s a serious S Rank coming to scout for the cultural festival beforehand, then the candidates narrow down even further.
“…Rokuhara.”
“Hey, hey, it’s been a while since we’ve met like this. Show a happier face!”
That’s right, it’s been a while since I was with him as Solciera during the territorial war against Kisou Academy.
But that’s not the point.
I feel like I just encountered a hungry lion while taking a walk!
“L-leader, give, give me a break…”
“Shut up. Be quiet.”
Eina-chan, desperately trying to escape Rokuhara’s iron claw, reached out when she saw us.
“P-please help me! Solciera―― yikes!?”
“Don’t call my name so easily.”
If I could, I’d love to teleport away while mumbling something appropriate, but there are too many people.
I can’t become Solciera here…!
‘Ugh…!’
‘Are you placing your own restrictions? Why?’
Right now, I’m a wanted person from S Rank.
Meeting here was unexpected.
Among them, getting involved with Rokuhara is bad news!
If I had known this would happen, I should have come in girl’s clothes.
“Do you need something from me? I don’t have time to hang out with an enforcer.”
“I told you, I came to see you.”
Rokuhara said that with a smile.
Then, the surroundings became noisy.
“Rokuhara-sama is here to see us!?” “Who is that guy?” “He looks like a bottom!” “That uniform is from Factom General Academy!” “Wait, is that the elite academy secretly established by the director!?”
This is bad, a strange chain reaction is happening.
Rumors about preferences are being exaggerated into something ridiculous.
“So that boy is Rokuhara-sama’s■■■…!?”
Hey, who said something weird!?
I looked around.
I was completely standing out.
This is not mysterious at all!
‘Rokuhara Solciera is a classic choice.’
There are enemies even from within…
“Tch… hey, there are too many annoying people here. Let’s change locations.”
“Ah, uh-huh.”
Rokuhara said that seemingly annoyed.
In his grip, Eina-chan is still at the mercy of the iron claw.
What have you done?
■
The place Rokuhara forcibly took me to was a calm café.
Moreover, perhaps he had informed them in advance, but there were no other customers.
Only quiet background music played inside.
This is a high mystery point.
“I rented this place. Stop with that silly act.”
“…In that case, I’ll indulge a little.”
I kept the appearance the same but smiled as Solciera.
That aside, it’s a nice café.
There might be an event where I bump into casual-clothed Solciera reading here.
‘I’d be happy if I could wear trendy glasses for disguises.’
A literary girl disguised as Solciera.
Not bad.
‘Are you going to wear glasses? Wouldn’t that reduce Solciera’s charm?’
‘Huh?’
Huh?
Did you just say glasses are a debuff?
‘W-what was that all of a sudden? I only stated the obvious. Those are tools to help humanity’s eyesight.’
‘But beauty lives in that sparkle! I’ll be sure to teach you later. The quiet, glasses-wearing Loli Ciera.’
Why do I have to become a loli?
But if it means getting my comrades to understand the charm of glasses, then I’ll do my part.
“Ah, Leader, look! This parfait is the one that went viral online. Let’s eat it!”
“You can’t eat dinner after that, so no. Stick with that small cake instead.”
Eina-chan, who had just been in an iron claw a moment ago, now looked happy perusing the menu.
But Hikari-chan won’t lose in the fun department!
‘Why are you competing with her?’
“Kei, would you like to share this parfait with me? If we share, we can halve the calories and the burden on our wallets…!”
“I don’t mind, but… is that really okay?”
“Yes. By doing this, we can save some for our next place.”
Smart.
When I was with Toa-chan, we were practically in a food fight, so I never thought of that.
Wait… huh?
Half-share!?
With a beautiful girl!?
‘That’s definitely guilty.’
‘I can understand that even if I can’t believe it. Purging is necessary.’
W-wait, both of you, I’m a beautiful girl now.
What’s wrong with a beautiful girl sharing a parfait with another beautiful girl!?
‘Foolish humanity.’
Your angelic side suddenly became prominent.
‘The first share should be with Clam or Rinka! That’s far more delicious in terms of scenario!’
Stop being noisy.
Why do I have to follow what the pairing enthusiasts say!?
Come on, Hikari-chan, let’s order, okay?
“Ah! Leader, don’t you think that’s unfair!? I want this too! Let’s share it! I’ll even feed you!”
“I don’t need that. Here, Eina, you eat it… hey, don’t push it on me.”
The frightening atmosphere from earlier dissipated, and a calm air began to flow around us.
Thus, our shared parfait golden time began to pass.
