Kapitel 54: [Kurumi.exe has stopped working]
Kurumi Pov-
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh~" As I was busy reaching Nirvana, the sudden feeling of emptiness in my head forced me to wake up.
"Tatsuya-san, don't stop so-" Before I could finish my words, I noticed that I was standing outside my apartment with Mikasa looking at me with a smile. "Mikasa-san, why are we here?"
"Let's go shopping." She grabbed my hand and started walking away. As I was looking at her in confusion, I noticed that her top changed all of a sudden. The crop top was replaced by a loose shirt and the shorts changed into pyjamas.
"Mikasa-san, why are we going shopping all of a sudden?" I questioned. Even for Mikasa, this was way too sudden.
"You'll understand when you get back to your apartment." She replied with a mischievous smile.
Knowing Mikasa's personality, I just decided to roll with it. The first place we went to was a bowling alley.
"Mikasa-san, have you ever done bowling before?" I asked, curious about her world.
"This is the first time." She replied, picking a ball up and observing it. "How about a bet? The one who loses will pay."
"Are you sure?" I asked. I won't brag, but I am very good at bowling ever since my high school days.
"Scared?"
"Alright. The one who loses will pay for everything we do today." And I agreed with a smile.
After about half an hour, I looked at the scoreboard with wide eyes. "Mikasa-san, you were cheating, weren't you?"
"Why would I ever do that?" She shook her head. "Please don't blame someone as honest as me."
"You know, you make a strike by bowling in the wrong alley." I commented, remembering how the ball flew back to the correct one and hit a strike.
"I was lucky." She quickly denied the accusation.
"And what about the ball moving in a zig-zag motion?"
"... Very lucky."
"I'll pay then." I said, sighing. My budget that should've lasted a decade was all over the place now.
After I was done paying, we decided to go and play at an arcade. And guess what? I lost to her, again.
"Mikasa-san, you've played this game before, right?"
"Never." She replied with a smirk dripping with superiority. "Maybe you're just that bad at it."
'My pride as a gamer just cracked.' I thought, internally sobbing. My record as undefeated in multiplayer games for decades was no more.
Leaving the bowling alley, we started moving aimlessly on the streets. There were a lot of people starting at us, most of which were boys, thanks to how good we looked.
"It feels like we're on a date, right?" I said with a giggle. Although it was a sudden decision, I was having a lot of us.
'It would've been more fun if Tatsuya-san was here.' I thought, wondering what he was up to right now.
"I guess it does." Mikasa replied, looking around as her eyes fell on a certain shop. "Let's go there."
Turning towards the direction she was pointing, I looked at the store. "A lingerie shop?" I was surprised by that decision but didn't disagree.
Both of us tried various types of lingerie, from revealing to modern and some weird and plain ones.
'Hmm. They are soft even though Mikasa-san got such a lean physique.' I thought, poking Mikasa's breasts from the side. She was wearing a black sports bra and even I had to admit that her body was really attractive. To not cause a misunderstanding, I am straight.
"What are you doing?" She asked, looking at me.
"Research." I replied. Mikasa has definitely been a bad influence on me.
Done with our lingerie shopping, we started moving on the streets aimlessly again. At this point, I was very curious about what Tatsuya-san was doing back home.
"Mikasa-san, how about we go and eat something?" I proposed.
"Yeah. I am kinda hungry too."
---
"What would you like to have, ma'am?"
"Five large cold drinks, five burgers and five- no, six French fries." Mikasa ordered. Forget about me, even the employee was surprised. Turning towards me, she continued. "What about you?"
Did you order all that for yourself? And she said she was 'kinda' hungry.
"A burger would do, please."
"Yes, ma'am." The guy replied before passing the order.
After our order came, the two of us took a seat at the nearby table and started eating.
"Mikasa-san, I've decided about the price for Sawa-san's location." I decided to talk about it with Mikasa first.
I had made my decision a while ago but was hesitant to tell them about it. So this could be the best chance to tell Mikasa about it first.
"What did you decide on?" Mikasa asked, looking at me.
"Mikasa-san, after everything that happened a few decades ago, I don't have anything important that I could offer up as payment for Sawa-san. The only thing I can offer is..." I took a deep, looking at Mikasa with a resolute expression as I pointed avfinger towards my face. "Myself."
"That's kinky, Kurumi. I never thought you were into that stuff." Mikasa said with a mischievous smile.
At least act like you're serious.
"And, Mikasa-san, there's one more thing." I said as she raised her eyebrows, indicating for me to continue. "I-I think I like Tatsuya-san."
And now I've done it. I knew I blushed while saying that.
'God, what am I even doing? Telling a girl that I like his boyfriend. Not to mention that I think of her as my best friend. I wanna run away now.' Who would've thought that I'll start having feelings for someone I've barely known for a month? Maybe it was because of the loneliness I felt all these years that I am growing desperate?
While I wasn't expecting Mikasa to lash out at me, I at least expected her to be angry or say some bad things about me. But to my surprise, she didn't even flinch when I confessed my feelings about Tatsuya.
"Well, it was pretty obvious." She said, shrugging her shoulders.
"You... are not angry at me?"
"Wait. Why would I be angry at you?" She asked, confused.
"I mean, I just said that I like your boyfriend. Most girls would be more than upset by it."
She blinked at me for a few seconds before doing an 'Oh~' in realisation. "You think I am his only girl, right?" She said with a giggle. "I love how naive you are, Kurumi."
"What do you mean by that exactly?" I know it was a stupid question, but I had to ask.
"He has two more girls that officially joined the party. And there are a few who will in the future too. Although I am the first, we've been together for decades now." Mikasa replied with a smile.
"... Can I ask something?"
"What is it?"
"Why... did you agree with him having other girls? Although we haven't been together for long, I know that you aren't the type to willingly share something."
Mikasa laughed a bit at my comment. "I am not." She rested her head on her palm, leaning forward. "I was the one who proposed this idea, to begin with. You see, we had a rough childhood, especially him. He can't connect with anyone except me, it's the same for me but my case is much better. I proposed the idea of having a harem on a whim, but I've grown quite fond of the girls around him. I can boss Hikari around as much as I want, while Pakura is like my little sister. Although not as much as me, he loves them too, which is something his previous self couldn't possibly do."
"I see." That was all I could say after hearing that story. In all honesty, it was bizarre.
"Over the years, my goal changed a bit." She gestured for me to lend her an ear. Leaning forwards, I brought my ear near Mikasa's mouth as she whispered something. "Now, all I want is to have a threesome with him and his different harem members. Maybe orgy too."
"M-Mikasa-san, h-how can you say something like that?" I never expected such a perverted reply after that bizarre but emotional story.
"Anyway, if you want to confess your feelings, you should do it in front of him." She replied, fixing her imaginary glasses. "Let's go back now, they'll be done by the time we're back."
"What do you mean 'they'?"
"You'll understand soon." Mikasa gave me a knowing smile before getting up with two large cold drinks in her hand.
As we were walking down towards my apartment, we heard a muffled but clear voice from behind us.
"Tokisaki Kurumi, it's been a while." Hearing that voice, I activated my Astral Dress instinctively.
Turning around, I looked at the humanoid figure surrounded by some weird mosaic, making it impossible to determine its true appearance or recognize its voice. "Zafkiel."
Summoning my angel, I looked at the humanoid figure. "What do you want, Phantom?"
Before Phantom could reply, a golden hologram appeared in front of me.
[The Divine Prophet- Don't pick a fight with it right now. She still has her uses. And absolutely don't absorb her into your shadow. The last one is a serious no-no.]
[The Worst Spirit- How do you know what I was about to do? And what do you mean by 'she'?]
Mikasa never replied to my question, just looking at Phantom while drinking her cold drink.
Phantom walked toward us, standing a few steps in front of us. "Tokisaki Kurumi, what do you think doing by getting involved with that guy? I gave you the answer to your goal, didn't I? Consume Shido Itsuka and you'll be able to go back in the past and kill the First Spirit." Although her voice was muffled, I could tell that she was feeling anxious.
'She probably knows that I wouldn't be able to kill Shido before the Chat Group due to the influence of my Sephira Crystal.'
"Do you know who Tatsuya-san is?" I asked.
"Someone you shouldn't get involved with, the same goes for her." She replied, turning towards Mikasa whose cheeks were swollen thanks to her mouth being full of cold drink. She was looking very cute like that.
'So Phantom doesn't know who Tatsuya-san and Mikasa-san are. It probably doesn't even know about Sawa-san.' I concluded. Before I could say anything, I was interrupted by Mikasa.
"Pfffft." She coughed a mouthful of cold drink directly at Phantom, making the latter step back a little. After Mikasa was done coughing, she looked shocked and astonished at the same time. "He- He changed her form and made her body into that of an adult. T-That's just pure genius."
"What happened, Mikasa-san?" I asked, worried if she was going insane.
"It's nothing." She replied with a smile. Turning around, I noticed that Phantom was nowhere to be seen.
"Mikasa-san, why didn't you let me attack Phantom?" I asked.
"She has something that we need. And I just had a very fun idea too."
"What idea?"
"Let's mess with the timeline." Mikasa said with a mysterious smile. "But for now, we need to continue our date."
"Huh?" Mikasa teleported us somewhere without even warning me before.
Deactivating my Astral Dress, I looked around, only to find that we were back at the arcade.
After playing there for several hours, we bought a lot of food for Mikasa and started making our way to my apartment.
"It smells funny for some reason." I muttered, entering my apartment as Mikasa followed closely behind. "What's this?" Looking at the slimy white substance on the front door, I was confused. The floor near the door was wet with a rather sticky liquid too.
Moving inside, I noticed that those two things were paired up all over the house. Various places on the floor, above the shoe rack, above the dining table, the kitchen slab, inside the bathroom, various spots on the balcony, in front of the bedroom, and under the dining table.
"Those two did a number here." Mikasa muttered with a smile, nodding in approval.
"What are you talking about? And what even is that?"
She blinked at me for a few seconds before whispering something in my ear.
[Kurumi.exe has stopped working.]
