Oh no, I misdirected the ‘vector’ of the conversation yet again! And I’ve realized this too late! The figure of the junior who had sympathized with me a while ago was now drifting pretty far away from me *GUN-GUN*. Yeah, it’s obvious isn’t it. It would have been a different matter if the other party were a bunch of men that I know well. Which idiot in the world would talk about breasts and thighs in succession to each other so passionately, not just that though, but it was to the girl who is clearly a junior, in a face-to-face conversation. I just moments ago, reflected upon my actions. Get it together, ME! Whilst scolding myself a bit more, and reflecting upon my actions yet again, I hurriedly ran up to Yoimachi-san once more.
“Waa~ I’m sorry, I’m really sorry! I was completely at fault here! so please don’t go that far away from me!”
“Please don’t ask for the impossible Senpai. When I was listening so emphatically, I could only hear more and more about, boobs──Ch-chests~ , and th-thighs~ …! How do you even want me to react to that!?”
I am really reflecting on that right now; I am really sorry! So, look, please don’t stare at me with such ferocity, please!
“If you take such an attitude in a place which is not that popular, I will completely look like a deviant-like pervert or maybe even a criminal──”
Discontinuing my disgraceful apology for later, I rose my eyes wide-upright in dismay. In front of the riverbank, which should have been completely empty just moments ago, at a location that was just about three meters behind Yoimachi-san who was still staring at me with her eyes under her bangs; was a big man who had his entire body covered by a large coat, just standing there.
“…Arre? Is somebody there?”
A suspicious voice came out of my mouth involuntarily. Standing in front of my sight was a big man with a square face, a big chin and a wide-brimmed hat. The black cloak that somehow reminded me of a church’s priest was pretty cool, but just when did he even get over there?
“Even though there should have been absolutely no one there for quite a while──”
“Magical reaction confirmation, magical reaction confirmation.
《Certified Entity: Demon》: Authenticating—…”
As if to cut off my question, the square old man suddenly uttered some strange words… Well, what is this coat guy even saying all of a sudden? If you want to converse with people, you should approach them saying, “Excuse me” or something like…–
‘Hello~’ or ‘I fell in love with you at first sight’ or maybe even, ‘Please keep me by your side for the rest of your life!’
Something like that should be the first thing to say to get going with the conversation. Oh, and by the way, the third one is the verse I used when I had first met Suzune-san.
She paused for a moment and then smiled and giggled, continuing, “If it’s okay with you, can you be the member for the miscellaneous work force”.
Ahhh, THAT SMILE WAS THE BEST THING TO HAVE EVER HAPPENED TO ME…… Oh no, no, I shouldn’t. This isn’t the time to be reminiscing about the past.
I shook my head *Gun-Gun* and pulled back my consciousness which was about to go on a trip.
In these times when I do not understand anything, I would usually just ignore and flee the scene as fast as I can. But at the present moment, I cannot do that because Yoimachi-san was there with me. I stepped forward to protect my Kouhai and looked up at the old man again, looking at him properly this time.
Since the man’s height is at least two heads taller than mine, that means that he must be at least 190cms tall. The width of the shoulders, the thickness of the arms and legs are also one-sided compared to me who had just a standard physique, so if by any case, a fight somehow broke out between us, I’m sure I would lose easily. Also, that strange prominent star mark plastered on his forehead scares the hell out of me. While I was thinking about this, I opened my mouth in a staccato.
“Etto… Do.you.need.anything from us?”
“Show us an indication which would determine that you are willing to depart from this world plane.”
“……world plane? ……depart? Excuse me, I’m unable to understand what you’re saying right now… so if there is nothing else to say, we will be leaving now.”
…………
“3, 2, 1.
Allowed Time-Limit for declaration is over.
The intention to leave has not been confirmed.
Thus, we will be now moving to the second phase, exorcism.
Deploying a simple sanctuary as built-in the church,
beginning to remove all unrelated people from the execution area.”
“As I am saying… What you are saying is beyond the context given to us. Can you stop your nonse-… gueh?!”
The moment I was going to ask him to stop his nonsense, my voice suddenly panicked. I do think that saying “gueh” in the middle of the sentence is a bit too inappropriate but, oh well, considering that the physical form of that old man just deformed and transformed into that of a Buddhist temple altar with those 3 mirror-like buddhist figure-like heads on its three sides right in front of my eyes, I think that that you can at least say that “That reaction cannot be helped.”
Now, the space where the nerves of your brain were originally supposed to fit in, were for some reason decorated with an interior reminiscent of a temple-like altar. On the center of the pedestal in front of them were candlesticks with candles in front of the 3 mirrored statue of the altar.
Eh… What’s going on? What the heck is this guy?
I froze up instantly.
In front of my eyes, who was unable to say anything, the old man, who was no longer an old man anymore – I began wondering whether he was an ‘old man’ in the first place to begin with.
I don’t have time to give that thing a name right now!
