章節 26: An Unknown Occurrence
"…e up."
"…ke up."
"…ake up."
"WAKE UP!"
"Huh?"
Alex, still drooling on his face, wakes up.
Realizing his error, he couldn't recall when he fell asleep.
"I think it's time to go back."
Su Yan inquired, and after he considered it, he realized she was correct, so he responded, "okay," and they left the Honey Bee Shop.
Su Yan tells on the street that she is delighted today.
Despite the fact that they are near the red district, she enjoyed her final day in May City.
"Thank you for everything."
Her unexpected remarks surprised him, but he quickly raised his guard.
"What was that for?"
"Why? Is it inappropriate for me to express my gratitude for you?"
"It's just that you are Su Yan. Complimenting is not your style."
"Do you want my punch? Choose one: left or right."
"I'm happy that I received your gratefulness."
He decided to express gratitude and shift the subject.
"By the way, why did you purchase that book?"
"Oh! I purchased this book after realizing it was a superb item. Is anything wrong?"
"No, nothing."
Avarice: The lady and the gentleman
He is uneasy about this book for some reason, which he can not understand.
He thought he was overthinking it, so he chose not to worry about it.
"Hey!"
"Ah!"
Su Yan suddenly jumped on his arm.
He is bewildered, and she sees that, so she said, "A reward"
"Oh…okay…"
He has no idea how to begin asking her why she did that on impulse, but he is happy for a moment.
But it's embarrassing because everyone is gazing at them, so he chose to walk quickly, as did she.
…
"Welcome, Ho—Eh?"
"We're back, Sis."
Holding his arms, Alicia is taken aback to find Su Yan having an intimate action with her brother.
She abruptly separated Su Yan from him.
Alicia has a terrifying aura that makes Alex want to flee.
She looked at the girl, who was looking away, and said, "We need to talk right now."
"If that's what you want."
Su Yan didn't struggle and simply let her be.
Alicia immediately knew something was amiss with her.
This feeling was intensifying, so she decided to take her to her room.
Alex, who is alone, has decided to go back to his room.
Although he thought there was something wrong with Su Yan, he ignored it and instead focused on what had transpired earlier.
He is not like those virgin-embarrassed main characters, but thinking about how defenseless she was earlier made his face flush.
He felt he had mistakenly touched certain spots where he expected her to be humiliated right away, but she didn't notice because she was reading.
'If I touched her boobs or ass early, she might not be embarrassed and will simply let me continue till she recognizes it.'
He feels a sense of loss while thinking about this topic.
"If the time machine does really exist…"
He murmured as he went up to his room.
…
Lunch.
Eating at the table is not as vibrant as in previous days.
Alicia and Su are quite silent.
Despite this, he can feel Su Yan's warm stare.
He feels strange about her, but a gorgeous smile from her can make him forget about it.
*clank
Alicia slammed the table.
Alex was astonished as Su Yan did not glance at her and kept her warm eyes on him.
Alicia wanted to leave after realizing what she had done, so she stated, "I'm already full." and left the table.
Alex wanted to stop her, but he couldn't say anything.
He tells himself to say anything, but nothing comes out of his mouth.
She eventually disappeared from his sight.
Looking at Su Yan, he inquired, "Did you fight with my sister?"
She widened her eyes as if she understood what he was saying and responded, "No, we didn't fight."
He accepted her answer without hesitation since he trusts her as much as he trusts his sister.
'So, why did he get upset for no reason?'
He decided to think, but Su interrupted him for a time and said, "You should finish your lunch first. Thinking without food in your stomach would be a hardship, not a benefit.
She is correct, despite the fact that her statements are more appropriate for someone who is in a war or battle.
However, he chose to disregard it and be appreciative for her words.
He started eating and noticed anything unusual about it.
"This is my first time cooking."
Su Yan turned away as she stated this.
At this point, he understands why the taste is different.
Cooking eggs is simple, especially when scrambled, but he understands that in this situation, he needs to react exaggeratedly, just enough to make her happy.
After all, girls will be pleased to get a compliment, even if they realize it is overstated.
This is one of the things he learned with the internet and television in his previous life.
'Wait a minute... is my spring coming?'
He considered it briefly before dismissing it because he knows how much she admires his sister.
This is something he noticed over the past few days, thus it is more likely that she will fall for her than him.
Anyway, he didn't mind, so he decided to appreciate the kind attention she showed him.
"Yes, it's quite tasty! Adding onions and tomatoes makes it even more tasty! If you keep going, you can become an excellent cook."
"Thank you for the praises… I'm embarrassed to hear but thanks."
Forgetting what had occurred to his sister earlier, their lunch became considerably more lively.
…
After lunch, he chose to read more about magic on his computer.
Mana Yarn.
Emul's Mana Theory.
This is the new words he learned that has been floating around since contemporary magic was established.
Despite having some information from his prior studies, he was unable to understand how the mana yarn develops and the idea works.
Finally, he decided to modify his course and read some of the articles that were moving around the world.
