Chapter 472: Green Rito
Class 1-B.
Sitting on a chair by the window.
Yami didn't know why she ran away. The sound of the school bell signaling the end of recess was definitely not the real reason why she did that.
It was just that... when she realized Eiji was watching her and calling her cute, she felt so embarrassed that she had the urge to run away to her class.
It definitely wasn't because she was jealous of seeing him and Risa flirting with each other. After all, how many times had she seen that boy flirting with a woman? It wasn't one or two times. Yami remembered she had seen things like that hundreds of times because... Ahem.
Not that she had been stalking Eiji, but in the past when she was still targeting the boy because of her mission that required her to monitor his daily life—including his home sex life. The latter was optional but as a professional assassin—it made sense she should also monitor such things, right? She was doing it to see if Eiji was a target she should kill or not.
Yami's face became hot every time she remembered those lewd scenes. Especially when she remembered the scene of Eiji eating Tearju on the balcony of his house.
Instead of hating it, Tearju even seemed to enjoy it and didn't look forced at all. Otherwise, that woman wouldn't have made such a face.
Although Eiji was her target and he was very perverted as her client said.
He was not a bad person.
Princess Lala, Momo, Nana, Tearju and the other women who had male and female relationships with him didn't even look like they were suffering.
Those women looked happy which sometimes made her jealous.
Yami was still holding the book she had just read in her hand. She actually bought the book two days ago because she overheard some girls talking about "love" in her class.
According to them, this book was good for a beginner in understanding what love was so she bought it.
Yami had understood a lot of the contents of the book—she had a guess as to why she felt that way that she didn't want to admit.
It can't be, right? She was a weapon even though after living on earth, she did have an attempt to learn to be human.
Still, how could she feel that way about Eiji?
That boy was...
"Your love target, right?"
"Noisy."
Yami dismissed the voice of the girl who looked like her inside her head.
Sometimes when she thought of that ecchi man, Eiji. Her dark side, the Golden Darkness would come closer to the surface. This was also the reason why she chose to run away.
She was worried that her dark side would take over her body.
"I am you. You speak as if we are two different people."
"I'm not."
"You're a stubborn girl... You obviously want to do perverted things with Eiji Seiya. So why don't you do it?"
"I'm not!"
"...."
Yami shouted in her heart. She didn't know, but in the original work—when she fell in love with Rito—her dark side was not so noisy and bothered her as if she had multiple personalities.
However, in this life it was different.
The lewd things with Eiji as the subject made Golden Darkness crazy about that boy. After all, unlike Rito, Eiji was very handsome.
She wanted his big sword to enter her body and make her moan like the other women.
That was why she tried to persuade Yami whenever she had the chance.
Yami sighed, she tried to get rid of the perverted things that flashed inside her head.
She didn't notice at all the gazes of her classmates who looked terrified from watching her hair fly when she was arguing with her dark side.
She suddenly remembered something.
In his inner voice earlier, Eiji said he wanted to protect her. Still, protect her from what?
Although Yami was happy that Eiji seemed to care about her, she also became more wary that someone might have evil ideas for her.
This reminded her of the girl who proclaimed herself as her younger sister, Kurosaki Mea.
It had been more than a week since the girl wanted to take her away from earth by force and turn her into an emotionless weapon like in the past.
Is this Mea's plan again?
...
Yami's guess was actually almost right.
But Eiji didn't immediately tell him with his inner voice.
After returning to class with Risa. He attended class as usual. Many of his classmates were certainly surprised when he returned to school again, especially Rito whose expression gradually became ugly.
The protagonist of To Love Ru seemed to have lived a peaceful life during Eiji's absence from school. But when the boy returned to school? He felt like his peace was shattered into pieces.
Rito thought it would be great if Eiji never returned to school.
But no, he ended up returning with something inside him that seemed more dangerous. Rito felt that even though Eiji greeted him as if he were his friend as usual—when he tried to pat his shoulder casually, his instincts detected a danger of death that made him panic and hurriedly jump from his seat and land in front of the class.
He looked like a scared cat which made his classmates laugh at him.
Yui, Haruna, Lala, Asia and the pretty girls in the class even looked at him with amusement. Rito's face darkened, he looked at Eiji warily.
However, Eiji feigned innocence as usual and even said: "Rito, what's wrong with you? I just wanted to greet you as a friend."
Rito couldn't believe what the boy was saying.
"Friend? You? Well I just wanted to go to the toilet."
He lied and didn't tell the truth in front of his classmates.
But in his heart?
{Eiji, how dare you! Did you think I didn't know you had evil intentions when you tried to touch me? I didn't know what you wanted to do.}
{But whatever it is, I won't let you succeed!}
Looking at Rito who ran out of the classroom with the excuse of going to the toilet, Eiji shook his head and sat down in his seat-the clichéd protagonist-style seat by the window.
Risa even sat in front of him and Lala was on his right side.
It was one of the best seats in the class.
Meanwhile.
The afternoon sun illuminated the street of the residential complex not far from Kuoh Academy with golden light.
Many crows flew here and there and let out their caws that sounded "kraaa" or "caw". Yami wasn't sure if it could be called chirping or crowing.
Knowledge about that... She would look for a book on the birds of the earth to find out later!
At this moment, Yami who was on her way to her regular Taiyaki shop as usual walked past a junior high school.
For her, Taiyaki was her favorite food that she even made into her dinner every day.
Taiyaki is justice. Especially if it was red bean paste flavor.
She never got tired of eating it.
"Yami-chan~!"
A girl with brown hair wearing a junior high school uniform called out her name.
Yami smiled faintly at the girl. Not long ago she had gotten to know her and accidentally bumped into her often when walking this way.
Although her face and last name bore a resemblance to the protagonist Rito. Yami did not feel disgusted or hateful towards her like she did towards that boy.
Even after she learned that Mikan Yuuki was Rito's younger sister.
"Mikan."
"Yami-chan, are you going to go buy Taiyaki again? Then let's go together!"
Mikan who was holding her backpack excitedly invited the blonde girl. Just like in the original work, she somehow got along very easily with Yami.
The two seemed to have been destined to be good friends.
Despite her lack of expression, Yami nodded gently. Unlike her attitude towards others including Eiji, she was very friendly when talking to Mikan.
"Un. Mikan also wants to shop for dinner ingredients at the convenience store again?"
"Yes~! Tonight, I plan to make chicken katsu for dinner."
Then, the two beautiful and cute girls walked side by side under the beautiful afternoon sky.
They talked to each other, Mikan was the only one who laughed often. However, Yami also smiled often. She did not laugh simply because her personality prevented her from doing so.
And just when they were about to pass by a deserted playground.
[Should I go out now? Mikan is there too! It's almost the same as in the original work except for the fact that I won't let that evil woman control her and make her a sandra so that she can defeat Yami easily.]
[Mikan is my good friend Rito's younger sister and Yami is my adopted daughter.
]Who's your adopted daughter?
It's true that my relationship with Tearju is like mother and daughter, but that's not entirely true.
I don't want to be your daughter.
Yami complained in her heart but hearing what Eiji said, she stopped walking and looked around with a wary gaze.
Because she was too absorbed in talking to Mikan on the way, she almost forgot about the things Eiji said this morning.
Mikan who also stopped walking because she saw Yami doing it. Of course, she could also hear Eiji's inner voice and was surprised that this time the plot had something to do with her!
She was excited and a little afraid of the evil woman Eiji was referring to. Whoever it was, she would probably...
"Heh, I thought I had hidden my existence well. It seems that the current you is not that weak, Golden Darkness."
"But you're already late...!"
A woman's voice sounded from behind Mikan.
The air that had been empty suddenly revealed the figure of a sexy brown-skinned woman with a whip in her hand.
That's right, it was Azenda.
"!!!" Yami couldn't remember who the woman was but she panicked, her hair immediately turning into several sharp knives. Her reaction was a bit late even though Eiji's inner voice had warned her.
The woman's hand almost touched Mikan's head.
But before she managed to control Mikan's mind, and before Yami managed to save the girl.
Mikan's figure suddenly disappeared which made both of them dumbfounded.
"Huh? Where is that girl?" Azenda asked in confusion.
"...?"
Yami was also wondering.
But soon a man and Mikan's voice came from the playground beside them.
"Mikan, are you okay?"
"I-I'm fine... You're Rito's classmate. Eiji-san, right? Thank you."
"You're welcome. It just so happened that when I was passing around here, I saw Yami and my friend's little sister. That woman had no good intentions, so I took the liberty of saving you."
"...."
Mikan couldn't believe what Eiji was saying, at least in the part where he happened to be passing by.
That boy had probably been following her and Yami for a long time.
Even so, it was true that he had saved her.
Now their bodies were pressed together—Eiji hugged her in a princess sling.
Not only that. Looking at Eiji's handsome face and smelling the masculine odor of his body, Mikan felt her face heat up.
