Chapter 24: Protagonist who panic and fear

Chapter 24: Protagonist who panic and fear

"Bastard..."

Rito's eyes reddened, his expression looking very ugly, especially when he heard Haruna mentioned.

He glanced back and saw that Haruna who was supposed to be around was no longer there.

"If you're looking for Sairenji, I saw her running out of the Aquarium crying." Eiji said with a smile on his face.

"Then why are you still asking!?"

Rito was angry because he felt he was being played, but he was also panicked that Haruna had left the Aquarium while crying.

Damn, he knew it was his fault, but he didn't expect Haruna to leave immediately while crying.

If Haruna hated him for this, not only did he fail to get Lala. From now on, Haruna would probably keep him distance because she was angry at him.

{Shit, I have to chase after Haruna! But Lala, she's still with that bastard! I can't...}

"How's the juice? Is it good, Lala?"

"Un, it tastes good. Thank you Eiji."

"Anything for my beautiful fiancée."

"Hehehe~"

Someone is sad and looks sick in front of you, but you tease each other!?

I don't know how many times Rito roared and wanted to explode from the anger and jealousy in his heart today.

Seeing Eiji hugging Lala's slender waist with his dirty hands, and the pink-haired girl herself leaning on his chest while drinking juice.

Rito had the urge to throw his void dragon fist into the face of that bastard named Eiji Seiya.

In this life, that guy was really his enemy!

He desperately wanted to kill him right now, but he knew the other party's power was superior to his.

As a person who had participated in the interstellar war in his previous life as the Galactic King.

He knew fighting an enemy stronger than himself was a foolish move and could only make temporary waves.

In order to fight an enemy stronger than himself, he had to increase his power first before finally taking revenge.

But there was a problem here.

It's true that to defeat a stronger enemy, you have to increase your strength first.

But Rito knew very well, in order to increase his power, his void dragon heritage, he had to go out of space, to a floating island where the void dragon's carcass lay and was guarded by the people who lived there - especially by the empress of that galaxy.

In his previous life, he was able to get there thanks to the help of Lala and her family background.

So if he could not get Lala in this life like in his previous life.

It will be difficult for him to increase his power!!!

Therefore, Lala must become his woman - just like in his previous life!

He must not let her continue to be with other men, especially his enemy.

"Eiji! Take your dirty hands off Lala!"

"Oh? Why would I do that? Lala's my fiancée, I can touch her wherever I want."

Eiji hugged Lala's soft body tighter with a smirk on his face, making the pink-haired girl moan slightly.

He didn't bother to hide his wicked smile.

Lala who was hugged tighter, instead of being embarrassed, she felt very happy and returned the hug.

"You..."

Rito was furious, looking at the scene in front of him, the void in his fist began to tremble slightly and buzz.

Eiji noticed Rito's posture that seemed to want to fight, he was not afraid, but a little disappointed that the protagonist's mentality seemed to be improving so quickly.

Originally he thought, after coming this far, Rito would at least have a mental breakdown and depression for a few days.

Rito's pale expression and coughing up blood due to the previous mental attack also proved that it had a great impact on him.

But not knowing what Rito was thinking, the boy suddenly had a murderous look and wanted to fight even though he knew he could not defeat him.

His gaze also occasionally kept glancing at Lala as if he wanted to bring her to his side as soon as possible.

It wasn't just love, but there were also other emotions like ambition and greed in his eyes.

?{Host, I remember you don't have the skills to read emotions or anything like that from the system.}

"...Of course, Miss System. After all, this skill is something I learned from my previous life."

"There's no need for the system to do it, everyone can do it as long as they have experience."

Eiji replied very naturally mentally.

But is it just me or does his tone sound a bit...

?{....}

At this moment, looking at the two boys who were staring at each other.

One of them is a very handsome boy with a smile and a very beautiful girl in his arms.

And the last was a boy who could be considered handsome, although not as handsome as the others. But his expression looked terrible as if he wanted to kill the blonde boy in front of him.

There were many people in the Aquarium and this scene certainly attracted a lot of attention.

Aside from guessing that this might be something like a love triangle or something.

Many people stared at Rito's visible fist as it buzzed and began to emit purple light.

Are the two boys and that girl filming a movie?

Where is the camera?

Wait, is it real?

Superpowers aren't real, they're just special effects, right?

"...Miss System, I don't understand what you're talking about."

?{Pretend! Keep pretending!}

"..."

Miss System seemed to be sulking.

Eiji had no time to persuade her, and he had no intention of sharing his routine with others.

"Hello, your name is Lala Satalin Deviluke, right? I know your name from the second-year student list. My name is Sona Shitori. Cough, I mean Sona Sitri."

"I'm also the student council president and a senior at the same school as you."

"You can call me Sona. We can be friends."

Sona made an unexpected friendship gesture!

Making Rias who was standing next to her dumbfounded.

Lala broke away from Eiji's embrace and shook hands with Sona.

She smiled brightly and said, "Hello Sona, I'm Lala Satalin Deviluke. You can also call me Lala because we're friends!"

Sona was a bit overwhelmed by Lala's smile, honestly she didn't expect this girl to seem to really sincerely want to be friends with her.

There was not even any hostility or jealousy in her eyes, her eyes just looked innocent and excited.

It made Sona who originally wanted to be friends with Lala to approach Eiji feel embarrassed.

She felt like a sneaky bad girl.

In the end she felt that being friends with a girl like Lala might not be bad and really wanted to be friends with her.

Rias who saw Sona's action didn't want to be left out either, she approached Lala kindly and took the initiative to befriend the pink-haired girl.

Lala certainly didn't refuse, with her smile and charm, she made the devil girl really want to be friends with her.

"Rias, I'm done."

"Kaichou, I'm done too."

Akeno and Tsubaki who had finished editing the memories of the previous people. Now the two of them lined up at Rias and Sona's side.

The two of them also began to get acquainted with Lala and befriended her.

Eiji who had been watching from the side nodded.

[As expected of Lala. She can easily make friends with anyone.]

[By the way I almost forgot about protagonist.]

[Well Rito's current expression must be very ugly and filled with jealousy... Huh? Why does he look scared like a person who saw a ghost?]

All the girls who were busy making friends finally remembered Rito.

They all turned to the orange-brown-haired boy.

And saw that the protagonist looked very scared.

His face was pale and his gaze was staring to the other side far enough away where there was nothing special.

Following his gaze, they only saw a few ordinary people passing by.

But somehow Rito's gaze looked higher as if he could see something that was enough to make a protagonist like himself scared and frozen in place.

"Yo Rito, what are you looking at?"

Eiji couldn't help but ask, looking in the direction where Rito was staring.

He didn't see anything, but his instincts screamed that there was something enough to make him feel danger from 50... meters away. No, about 30 meters to be exact.

It was quite a distance and the Aquarium hallway in this city happened to be very long.

The Aquarium's facilities were arguably rich, and one of the best Aquariums in Japan.

But putting that aside, what exactly did Rito see?

Rito who was asked by Eiji finally realized, he didn't answer that bastard and hurriedly looked at Lala.

"La-Lala, go. We have to get out of here soon."

Rito's voice even sounded very nervous, he had long lost the momentum to fight with Eiji before.

Now he only seemed to want to take Lala away with him as soon as possible because of something.

Something he saw.

When everyone was confused, including Eiji.

Rito's inner voice of panic and fear was heard.

{Damn it! Damn it! Why are they here? Fxxck! This life is a bit different from my previous life}.

{There is an bastard like Eiji Seiya who wants to steal my woman and I really want to kill him as soon as possible}.

{Not only that, even people like them also came early!!! They shouldn't have appeared, at least in front of me before I had enough power to blow up a mountain or a planet.}

{If it was me in my previous life, I wouldn't be afraid and could kill them with a wave of the hand.}

{But now? My power is still far from even my previous life's peak. Fighting them is tantamount to seeking death!}

{I must get Lala to escape from this place as soon as possible! As for those beautiful girls who somehow know the supernatural? Although I also want to take them and maybe add them to my harem list...}

{Forget it. They seem to have something to do with that blonde bastard. Heh, just let them die with Eiji Seiya!}

{Bringing Lala to escape with me is more important!! Not only was Lala my woman in my previous life, but her family background is also important to help me increase my power}.
