Book 13: Chapter 2: Part 4

Heres the chapter, enjoy~

Part 4

Its as lively as ever!

After the practice for the stage was over, Lexia and the others came to a shopping mall.

I thought about it the last time I was here with Luna and the others, but its amazing how many different stores are in one building, isnt it?

Huh? Is it unusual in Lexia-sans country?

Kaede was the only one among them who did not know that Lexia and the others were from a different world, and she was mystified when she noticed Lexias amazement at the shopping mall.

Id like to have one in our country, too, seeing as its so convenient.

Thats true! There are a lot of problems with the land, but well manage!

?

Listening to the words alone, it was as if Lexia was saying that she would build this shopping mall-like facility in her own country, which made Kaede, who thought she was just an exchange student, tilt her head in confusion even more.

Nevertheless When I first came to this world, I was hoping to learn just a little bit about the culture, but after taking a closer look around, Im learning a lot!

Well, your real purpose was Yuuya, after all.

Thats obvious! But this world and the science and technology that Merl uses are also interesting to learn about, but the intangible things like architectural styles and commercial forms like this are also very informative.

Lexias eyes were somewhat serious as she said this.

However, she soon returned to her usual demeanor and turned her head to everyone else.

Well! Lets take a look around then! Ive always wanted to go to a place called a game center!

Is that so? Oh, but I wonder if game centers are unusual for people from other countries?

At least, there arent any in my country! When I was looking around the city with Luna and the others before, we passed by a game center

Not only Lexia but also me and Yuti didnt know, so we didnt stop by, did we?

Affirmative. When it comes to the unknown, its best not to touch it.

Come to think of it; Im curious too.

Merl-san, too?

Although the planet Amel has more advanced science and technology than Earth, it seems that science and technology are not used much for entertainment, which has been one of her concerns since she came to Earth.

Besides, I didnt have that much money at the time.

Well, it wasnt money to play with; it was money to buy what we needed.

Secured. Im getting money from Yuuya today.

Although they could not play the other day due to financial reasons, this time, they could play because Yuti had received money from Yuuya in advance.

Lexia and the others, who had thus decided on a game center as their destination did not go there directly.

Huh? What is that?

Hey, Lexia!

Lexia spotted a sign that said Tapioca and moved to it.

Tapioca? What is that? Luna, do you know about it?

I dont know but what are those creepy, black lumps?

Its sweet. I had it once with a friend.

Eehh? Yuti, you have friends?

Protest. I have good friends.

Yuti was displeased with Lexias reaction.

However, Lexia did not care and continued.

But that means that is sweet food, right?

Thats right. It may look weird, but the texture is interesting and tasty.

Satisfied with Kaedes explanation, Lexia began to look around again.

Interesting! Oh, and over there too!

As I said, dont move on your own!

And Lexia never made it to the game center, as she would find something that caught her interest and head in that direction.

Look! Its ice cream! Lets try some!

Ice cream? Whats that?

Huh? Luna-san, have you never had ice cream before? Its a cold sweet

Cold sweets? I-it cant be helped. If Lexia wants to eat it, lets eat it.

Affirmative. Sugar content is important.

Fufu, thats good.

After each of them finished ordering and received the order

Mmmm! Its so cold and delicious!

A-amazing The crepe I had before was amazing, but I didnt know there was such a sweet

Delicious.

I guess this planet has made great progress in entertainment and food culture.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com

As they ate the ice cream and shared their impressions, Lexia and the others attracted a lot of attention from the people around them.

Hey, that

Wow, theyre so pretty!

They look like foreigners, but they are beautiful!

Hey, lets go talk to them, shall we?

Stop it; youre not going to get any attention.

Lexia and the others were attracting attention, but they were too engrossed in their ice cream to pay any attention.

After finishing their ice cream, Lexia and the others finally arrived at the game center.

This is it!

What can I say its pretty noisy when youre near

Affirmative. I didnt recognize it from a distance before, but up close, it looks completely different.

So you can play with everything here?

As each of them looked around the game center, Lexia noticed something.

T-thats so cute!

Lexia was interested in a stuffed bear inside a crane game machine.

Hey, Kaede! How do you play with this?

Well, its, you know

After a brief lecture from Kaede, Lexia rolled up her arms.

I see. Well, Ill give it a try then!

Lexia tries it, putting in her money in high spirits.

However

H-hey! Youre pushing it too far!

Lexias button operation failed to move the arm to the desired position.

On the contrary

Aaaaah! No, no, no, no! Theres nothing there!

Pfft thats brilliant. Its such a big target, and you didnt even graze it

Kiii! If youre going to go that far, Luna should try it!

In the end, Lexia was unable to win the stuffed bear and was quickly replaced by Luna.

And

Good grief Youre totally hopeless if you cant do such a simple thing, Lexia! This is how you do it H-huh?

However, Luna also could not move the arm to the targeted position, and as a result, she could not win the prize.

Arara~? I thought this was supposed to be easy.

Kuh! N-no, its not me! There is something wrong with this strange machine!

Is that so? Unfortunately, we have no intention of doing so. Youll have to find someone else.

Well, well, dont say that.

Eh, u-uh

Kaede!

Luna replied in a nonchalant manner, and one of the men put out his hand to Kaede.

The people around them knew that something was going on, and although some of them went to contact the police or security guards, no one was going to stop them.

Luna and Yuti, who had decided that they would be harmed if they did not do something, immediately tried to subdue the man..

U-um those girls I dont think they like

Huh?

At that moment, a young man stopped the men.

The young man appeared frail at first glance, with a generally gloomy air about him.

However, there was a strong will in his eyes, and one could sense his desire to help Kaede and the others who were in trouble right in front of him.

Then, one of the men came up to him, perhaps offended by the young mans attitude.

Whats the matter with you? You got a problem with us?

T-the girls look like they dont want to go with you, and I dont think its a good idea to force them to go with you.

The man looked down at the young man in a somewhat intimidating manner, but the young man paid no attention to that intimidation and said so.

You bastard Dont get carried away!

!

Hey!

Irritated by the young mans attitude, the man pushed him away forcefully.

Lexia tried to stop him in a hurry, but Luna restrained her with her hand.

Luna!

Dont move. Im your guard.

But!

As Lexia tried to argue with Luna, who had a serious expression on her face, the other men began to surround the young man.

They could have left at any moment, but they could not leave the young man who came out to help them.

You! Leave us alone and get out of here!

I-its okay!

But even after Lexias words, the young man did not stop facing the men.

Are you alright?

I was just in the mood to talk to the girls when you interrupted me.

Seriously, its people like you that get on my nerves the most!

!

Hey!

At that moment, one of the men punched at the young man.

The other men followed suit, assaulting the young man one after the other.

Lu-Luna! Stop those men right away!

Kuh!

Luna, unable to leave the scene of the young man being assaulted, tried to subdue the men as if following Lexias orders.

But

You people! What are you doing!

Shit! Lets get the hell out of here.

You bastard, I will remember your face, okay?

The men left in a hurry when a police officer rushed to the scene after receiving a call.

For the remaining young man, Lexia immediately rushed over to him.

A-are you okay? Are you hurt?

I-Im fine.

The young man was startled by the hand that was extended to him, but he fearfully took the hand and got up.

The young man then spoke softly to Kaede, who had frozen up earlier when the man grabbed her hand.

U-um are you alright?

Eh? Ah, yes! Im fine! Or rather Its me who should ask you if youre okay!

Kaede came to her senses and asked the young man in a hurry, and he smiled softly.

I-Im fine. Im glad nothing happened to you.

You all, are you okay?

One of the police officers then approached Lexia and the others.

Were here because of a report Can you explain to us what happened?

Y-yes. Actually, some men came in and messed with us, and we were in trouble, and then this guy H-huh?

The young man was gone before anyone knew it, though Lexia tried to explain the young man to the police officer.

Aside from Kaede and Lexia, everyone was surprised that the young man disappeared without anyone being able to detect him, even in the presence of such powerful people as Luna and Yuti.

However, Luna and Yuti were also surprised by something else about the young man.

Yuti, the man from earlier

Astonished. There wasnt a single scratch on him

Luna and Yuti had seen that the young man who had just been assaulted, albeit for a short time, had not a single wound.

Moreover, the young man had disappeared without being detected by the two girls, which raised more and more questions.

Who exactly was the young man?

In the end, Lexia and the others were unable to find the young man who had helped them after that, so after a brief question, they decided to go home.

Haaaa. I was in such a good mood, but those people ruined it!

It cant be helped, can it? Lexia-san attracts attention, so

Negative. Its not just Lexia. Merl stands out enough, too.

I-is that so?

If you say so, then so does Yuti

It doesnt matter! I wonder who that man was, after all. While everyone else pretends not to see anything he was a very nice person to come out to help in that way! Right, Kaede?

..

Kaede?

Huh? Oh, I-Im sorry! Whats wrong?

I was just asking about the person from earlier whats happening with you?

When Lexia asked this to the strange-looking Kaede, Kaede spoke with a slightly puzzled look on her face.

U-um Im not sure how to say it I thought the person who tried to help us looked like Yuuya-kun

Yuuya-sama?

Yes How should I put it? The atmosphere? I felt at ease I had a feeling like that.

Kaede was bewildered by emotions she did not understand.

However, Lexia and the others seemed to understand it and were equally puzzled.

If you say so

Affirmative. It was a very gentle presence.

Yuuya-sans presence is unique. I thought that there were not many people who have such a sign as Yuuya-sans

He suddenly disappeared, and there are many mysteries, but he saved us. Hes not a bad guy, is he?

Thats true! If we meet again some other time, lets thank him again!

Lexia and the others returned home safely and without incident, determined to one day express their gratitude to the mysterious young man.
