Chapitre 219: 219. Parallel World Japan
Izumi and the others decided to depart the day before the Comiket event. At that time, it was already dark and they appeared almost at the same time in a deserted alley.
Izumi looked at Rori and Kakashi who were wearing their usual clothes. From the point of view of people from the modern world, it was certain that people would say "cosplay" when they saw Rori and Kakashi. Meanwhile, Tabane's clothes still looked ordinary in the eyes of modern world people. Well, the most conspicuous thing about her was the robotic bunny ears she wore.
On the other hand, Izumi cosplayed as Kirito from Sword Art Online. Dressed in all black starting with his shirt, jacket, pants, and shoes. The swords on his back are just decorative swords that Tabane made. And those two swords are somehow similar to the original with each of them being black colored and the other one light blue colored.
Since the next day is the summer Comiket event, it wouldn't look strange if someone wore such outfits already. They walked somewhere and stopped in the park. Well, Izumi could only think of that place right now.
Izumi asked.
"So, where should we go?"
"Hihihi, just follow me!" Then Tabane stood up from her seat and walked in a certain direction. Izumi, Rori, and Kakashi looked at each other, then followed suit.
Kakashi didn't know much about Japan, so he was a little curious.
"By the way, where are we now?"
"Yeah, we were teleported here near Kuroneko's place, are we?"
Not only Kakashi, but Rori also asked. Even though Rori had visited the modern world, she didn't know much about the regions of Japan.
Izumi replied.
"This should be Chiba prefecture. Our destination tomorrow is in Tokyo city, to be precise Tokyo Big Sight, Tokyo international exhibition center."
Tabane nodded at Izumi's words, then added.
"This place isn't far from Tokyo, but tomorrow we have to leave early. Well, if we're late, just use the IS."
Rori turned to Tabane.
"Why not just use your IS for cosplay?"
"Hey hey, Rori, the real IS is going to attract too much attention."
Izumi rejected Rori's suggestion because it was too much. Usually, if people cosplay with a robot theme, people would not make it from metal as components, because it would be too heavy.
After a while.
Izumi and the others entered the hotel, their arrival made everyone's eyes fall on them, either because of their clothes or because they looked like couples.
The receptionist lady greeted them gently.
"Welcome, is there anything I can help you with, gentlemen, ladies?"
Tabane came forward and said to the receptionist lady.
"One double room and one love room... auch..."
Izumi had expected Tabane to say something weird, so he chopped her head with his hand. Izumi turned his gaze to the receptionist lady and said.
"Just two-double rooms, please!"
"Yes." The receptionist lady responded calmly and smiled sweetly. She took two room keys immediately and gave them to Izumi.
"Let's go, Kakashi-san! Let them get their own room."
"Sure."
Kakashi followed Izumi from behind. Suddenly, they heard a voice.
"Izumi-chan, why don't you want to share a room with me? You coward! That's why you're still single after breaking up with your girlfriend."
Izumi stopped his step and turned around. He saw Tabane grinning at him. Izumi curled up his lips and said.
"Why do you think I will end up with you?"
"Eh, I have Kagune, and so do you. You're a genius in science, and so am I. Don't you think we're perfect for each other?"
"Only twice, it must be a coincidence. You're too superstitious."
"You need another one? Hmmm, you have a personal IS, and so do I. How is it, how is it? So, let's share a room with me!"
"Agghhh, can you not talk about it now? Look around you! Aren't you feeling embarrassed?"
Izumi was annoyed with Tabane who was talking casually without looking around her. He was embarrassed by the behavior of the girl in front of him who did not care about the presence of other people.
Izumi immediately rushed to the room and ignored Tabane's annoying behavior.
— — — —
Izumi opened the Group Chat and typed a message while mentioning Kuroneko.
Izumi: @Kuroneko, we are already in your world. What time are you leaving for Tokyo?
Kuroneko: Oh, you're here already? Why didn't you say so?
Izumi: We didn't mean to bother you in your home anyway, so we stayed at a hotel.
Kuroneko: I see.
Tabane-chan: Kuroneko-chan, Izumi-chan doesn't want to share a room with me. He said he was embarrassed.
Kuroneko: Pervert.
Tabane-chan: Alas, even Kuroneko-chan isn't on my side.
Izumi: Your behavior embarrassed me!
Tabane-chan: No way!
Kuroneko: You should learn TPO first!
Izumi: Just forget about her. Anyway, we'll meet tomorrow before leaving for Tokyo. What time are you leaving?
Kuroneko: The train leaves at 6:45, so we'll meet at least half an hour before in front of the train station.
Tabane-chan: No way! Did you guys really ignore me?
Izumi: Oh, so early?
Kuroneko: Of course, I also need preparations to open my stand.
Izumi: Got it, see you tomorrow!
When Izumi put down his phone, he heard a knock on the door. Well, needless to say, the culprit was Tabane.
Izumi opened the door and asked.
"What is it?"
Izumi looked at pouted Tabane. She asked.
"Are you mad at me?"
Izumi shook his head.
"No, I'm just a little annoyed that your behavior is different than usual." Izumi replied monotonously.
"Oh, so you like my usual behavior?"
Suddenly...
*bam*
Izumi forcefully close the door and said from inside his room.
"It's night already, go sleep!"
Then, Izumi walked away from the door and rest on the bed. He suddenly felt sleepy and his vision slowly became blurred, before long he involuntarily closed his eyes.

The next day, at half past six in the morning they checked out of the hotel and went to the train station. While waiting for Kuroneko, they bought food that would at least fill them up. And the practical food they could get at that time was Onigiri.
Izumi complained while stroking his stomach.
"Not enough. I'm still hungry."
"It's your own fault."
Tabane chuckled at him, even Rori also giggled.
They were joking with each other as they walked toward the train station. It didn't take them long to arrive, and it was still six in the morning.
They waited at the spot visible from the entrance. That way, Kuroneko would immediately recognize them because of their clothes that looked like they were cosplaying.
Still, by waiting in an obvious spot in front of the station, they all caught the attention of passersby. Additionally, Rori and Tabane were beauties. No way people would ignore them.
A while later, Kuroneko came along with a girl wearing spiral glasses and a strange style of clothing. The girl was surprised when Kuroneko came to Izumi and the others.
"Kuroneko, who are these cosplayers? Your friends?"
Kuroneko nodded.
The girl who came with Kuroneko was Saori. She is an avid fan of the otaku culture and also a close friend of Kuroneko.
Seeing the appearance of Izumi and the others, she said inwardly. "The spiky-haired man is Kakashi from the Naruto anime, another one is unmistakable, he really looks like the main character in the Sword Art Online anime. The little girl cosplayed as the recently famous Rory Mercury. And who's the other one? If I'm not mistaken she's cosplaying as a character in a sci-fi anime. But I forgot which anime."
Well, even though Saori is also an anime fan, she can't remember all the characters from the thousands of anime characters that have been created.
