Bab 1030: -1017- Worried for nothing
After that, Rozen and Avrora almost wandered through the entire commercial street and shopping center.
For Avrora, who had never seen the outside world, everything was fascinating. She would marvel at anything, even a balloon flying in the sky, and scream with excitement at the sight of a small dog. In the end, she experienced everything and satisfied her curiosity to the fullest.
So Rozen not only took Avrora shopping but also bought several sets of clothes for her to change into, various daily necessities, and even went to an amusement park, ensuring they had a fulfilling time.
However, contrary to all this, as Rozen had anticipated, Avrora was particularly interested in the various cold drinks and ice dishes on the island.
At least, Rozen would never forget the scene when Avrora tasted ice cream for the first time, her eyes widening with extreme joy and excitement, her beautiful face like that of a fairy.
Her smile at that moment, without exaggeration, was the most beautiful smile Rozen had ever seen.
Considering this, Rozen and Avrora didn't even think about going back home at noon. Instead, they had lunch outside and then continued to explore, truly wandering through the entire commercial street and shopping center.
By the time they felt tired, the sun was beginning to set, the sky was tinged with dusk, and the horizon was turning black, indicating that they had played from morning until night.
In such circumstances, it was time for them to return home.
Although Avrora still looked reluctant to leave.
"There will be other chances in the future," Rozen said, comforting her with a helpless expression as she watched Avrora gazing in the direction of the commercial street as if bidding it farewell with sadness.
"Well...that's true," Avrora said, her mood improving slightly as she finally withdrew her gaze.
"Then let's go back now," Rozen said, exhaling a tired breath. "I've already used spatial control magic to send back the things we bought, so let's just teleport back home."
Even though teleporting back home from here would require a considerable amount of magical power and complex spellcasting, Rozen's abilities were more than sufficient for this level of task.
Besides, Rozen had no energy left to take the tram again, so it was better to teleport directly.
"Let's...let's go as you suggest," Avrora nodded wearily, looking tired as well.
So, naturally, they held hands and were engulfed by a sudden wave of spatial fluctuation, turning into a massive ripple, like a magical array, swallowing Rozen and Avrora.
...
Under the magic of spatial teleportation, Rozen and Avrora returned home smoothly in less than a second.
However, upon returning home, Rozen was completely taken aback.
"...Taking leave without permission, and then taking that little girl who's barely grown out for a whole day of wandering outside, until it's dark, your courage has really grown, my dear little brother," a low but extremely cold voice echoed in the luxurious and spacious hall, reaching Rozen's ears.
Accompanying the voice, there was an unmistakable anger that even the most obtuse person could sense.
Rozen immediately stiffened.
"Eep!" Avrora was equally startled by the sudden outburst, emitting a short, frightened squeak.
But Rozen had no energy left to tend to Avrora's emotions.
Rozen could only stiffen his neck, slowly turn his head, and look towards the deepest part of the hall.
Sitting on the sofa there was a young girl dressed in a gorgeous gown, swinging her small feet, tapping the lace fan in her hand against her palm, her eyes devoid of any emotion, only exuding endless coldness.
"Natsuki-nee...?" Rozen asked, trembling, as if doubting whether the scene before him was an illusion.
No, it should be said that he hoped it was an illusion, right?
Unfortunately...
"I worried that leaving you alone at home during this special period might lead to some mishaps, so I rushed back after finishing my work overnight, only to find out that you had a more enjoyable time than I had imagined. I really worried for nothing, didn't I?" Natsuki-nee closed her eyes and said expressionlessly, but the pressure emanating from her was evident, letting everyone know the extent of her anger.
Rozen immediately shook his head like a rattle drum.
"Huh? Is that so?" Natsuki suddenly opened her eyes, a smile appearing on her childish face, but there was no warmth in her eyes. "Then you should be able to explain the whole situation to me clearly, right?"
After speaking, Natsuki waved her hand, conjuring a spatial ripple.
"Ouch...!"
Accompanied by a painful cry, a young man was thrown to the ground, bound tightly with chains.
"Kojou...!" Rozen exclaimed in astonishment.
"The dirty individual...!" Avrora, trembling behind Rozen, unconsciously uttered a somewhat concerning term.
In such a situation, only Natsuki remained calm, still sitting there.
"Your friend is quite loyal. Even when I interrogated him, he refused to say anything, and since he's my student, I can't use force on him, so I'm at a loss," Natsuki remarked.
No, chaining someone up like this already counts as using force, doesn't it?
"I...I oppose corporal punishment, Natsuki-chan!" Kojou shouted.
At this, Natsuki's lace fan exploded against Kojou's forehead, striking him down with a painful howl.
"Do not address your teacher with 'chan'! Fool!" Natsuki scolded Kojou.
Due to her excessively cute appearance, many people at Saikai Academy directly referred to Natsuki as "chan," which was an unwritten rule, and even Natsuki herself knew about it, but she always felt annoyed by it.
"Anyway, explain the whole situation to me!" Natsuki glanced at Avrora, who was trembling behind Rozen, and sighed.
"Ugh, I have to clean up after troublesome people again," Natsuki muttered.
