Isekai Taneuma

We did it.

Elise and her father left arguing. Anton, who came scratching his back head with an apology, apologized for opening it today as his father left him to the right and left.

When the remaining feng saw that their backs were invisible, they let go of their hands, which were both connected. At that moment, when she saw Meatier's figure fluttering, she panicked and stretched her arm, but she lowered her hips to the chair where she was standing, scratching Feng's arm.

"No... I did it..."

Meatier was burning up like a boxer with everything out of it. Feng took two glasses from the waiter running the floor and gave her one.

"Thank you... how much is it?

"No, I don't take money from shops like this."

"Is that so... Mr. Feng used to go in and out of these shops?

"No, not at all."

There were no such casinos in Japan, and this is a different world in the first place. Well, how do you know that? I can only say it's because it's modern. Rich people have a lot to do with each other. Like Elise's father. Oh, no. Who's that faggot? And I thought,

"I'm surprised...."

"What happened?

"No, get involved and I can feel what I'm saying, but I was used to it more than Feng-san thought... escorting me where I needed it, holding my hand... I imagined that I was probably not good at this kind of thing."

Feng smiled bitterly.

"Of course I'm not good at that. That's why I think about it."

"What do you mean?

"Is this in the woods to hide the trees? Humans want to stick a couple in their necks when they're fighting, and vice versa, when they're flirting, they turn away. Because it's not interesting. So, if you're going to be a lover, it would be less obvious if you had more primary contact. In fact, after one flirtation, those two just stopped saying anything. That wasn't because the suspicion cleared up, but because I lost interest."

I see.

"If you're going to play a lover, it's better to make more contact than it really is. If it was real, I wouldn't be ashamed of it. Once Meetya became aware that this was an act, she would no longer care."

"That's right..."

Feng was really right. I've been aware of him for a long time, and once I got angry that this was an act, I stopped worrying about him no matter what he did. Ning, I even thought such a skinship would be fun.

"Humans play themselves more or less. Because it's easier to live with yourself in stereotypes. Isn't that what lovers do to each other? Those who were initially aware of the other person get closer to being real by starting to play the role of lover. It's no big deal to lie to yourself if you know that everything has a process to say that. Everyone's a fake at first."

At the same time, I realized that Feng was indifferent to Meatier... and to himself. Until just now, he just touched himself, and it was as if he was up in heaven, but the gentle words and the warmth of the hands he touched made him realize that everything was a lie.

As I held hands with Feng, put my arms together, and kept pretending to be my lover, I felt myself getting used to it, and at the same time, my chest began to tingle. Thanks to this, I was able to combine the pursuits of my childhood friends, but I felt like I had lost something instead. Even if they found out, it might have been happier for them to remain happy to be touched by him.

And no matter what they thought when they found out about it... I'm sure they didn't think about it anymore.

"Speaking of which, I haven't spoken yet....."

"What...?

"Why did you ask Feng-san for such a strange thing?"

Ah.

He leaned on the glass he had, whether he told him or not. Meatier drank the contents of the glass and started talking as she pushed herself down to the table.

"It really wasn't a big deal to think about right now... Anton and I have been in a so-called childhood relationship since we were kids. My parents were very close to each other, and my father was originally an apprentice to a carpenter named his father's apprentice, but when we were born, as business partners, we had a relationship that allowed us to travel around each other's homes.

So me and him have been doing anything together since we were kids. It was my daily routine to go to school, to play, and to chase his back. I thought it would last forever, right? But he seemed different. One day, I suddenly said I'd become an adventurer and I jumped out of the house.

The neighbor was in a lot of trouble, so the inheritance suddenly jumped out of the house, of course. And we were pretty shocked, too. My parents must have thought that one day Anton and I would be married and the two houses would be one. I've been vaguely thinking about it since I was a kid... but I didn't have any particular panic.

Whether he was a carpenter or an adventurer for me, he didn't change his mind. So, if he's going to be an adventurer, he's going to be an adventurer himself... and if he can't, he's going to be a member of the guild, so I went to the girls' school. "

"What kind of girls' school is there?

She nodded hard.

"In this town, women have to be born rich or go to a girls' school to do the work they want to do. You can't become an Alliance employee without a school introduction.

Even though we weren't wealthy, we had enough money to send me to a girls' school, so my parents agreed as soon as I said I wanted to. My parents must have known what I was thinking.

So I went to the girls' school, and I met Elise in the dormitory. As you can see, she was the daughter of the city's wealthy, and she didn't really want to be anything like me, so it was only natural that she did.

We fell in love with each other. It was a matter of time before we could do anything together, go anywhere together, and travel together after graduation. When she said she wanted to be an Alliance employee, I felt proud that she could influence anyone.

But I didn't expect it to come back later as an inconvenient result for me. "

If you ask me so much, I can understand what happened afterwards... but Feng silently encouraged me to continue.

"Successfully graduated, we all joined the guild. We knew that we were close, so the training was going to the same place. Perhaps the Alliance was concerned, but our training destination was Anton's home city. I used to tell Elise that I had a childhood friend who became an adventurer, so she was looking forward to seeing him.

And you know the rest. As an Alliance employee, I reunited with Anton and introduced my colleague Elise. The two fell in love at once. I'm laughing. "

"... I see."

"It was a shocking event for me. Needless to say, I liked Anton and ran after him to become an Alliance employee... but I never told him how I felt. I'm sure he feels the same way about himself.

But that was a mistake. From the beginning, he only thought of me as a friendly childhood friend. It's obvious. That's how I behaved myself... and that stupid childhood familiarity led me to a fateful encounter like an idiot. "

Feng didn't know what to say. So of course I kept quiet. But the truth is, I wanted to tell you that you're not stupid.

"I don't know what to do anymore. It was only natural that a child who I thought was my best friend took someone I liked. But it was also my fault. I was fond of Elise's best friend, but I never told her I liked Anton. Ning, I've been telling such lies all this time, even though I'm like a brother with hands on me.

It's all my own seed. All I could do was pray for the happiness of both of us and stand down... and I thought if I sealed my feelings, that would be all. But then, I'm sorry about what happened.

Anton came back to the city after completing his Guild training and chasing after us assigned to the city. He hasn't been home since he jumped out of the house, but he had a lover named Elise, and one day he was going to introduce her, and he didn't come home for the first time in a few years.

Of course, it's a big fight. It's only natural that my eldest son, who thought he would inherit, came home on his own accord. But it was my fault that his parents were angrier than that.

After returning home for the first time in a few years, he fights with his parents and wants to introduce Elise. As for him, if he had brought his future wife, he would have thought his parents would be in a better mood. But his father was furious when he heard that. Why did you bring another woman home instead of me....

Me, my family, and his parents were close, so they knew I was running after Anton to become an Alliance employee. But even if you say that, there's nothing you can do now. I bet he didn't think so, and his parents blamed him.

Their parent-child quarrel lasted forever and reached my ears. Something happened next door, so my parents called me to stop them.

By the time I rushed in, the fight was over.

And in front of the quiet neighborhood, Anton is just sitting there alone, listening as he finds me. Do you like me? What?

That's why I told you. I don't like you. "

There was a stiff air flow. The surroundings were filled with people's voices, but I could hardly hear anything but her voice. She continued in such a strange silence.

"And then I was really tired of it every day. I told his parents that I didn't think anything about him, and I told my parents that there was no practice. And I had to explain his parents' laughing mistake to my best friend, who knew the noise.

Still no doubt, I told Elise that I would leave if I liked Anton. Indeed, I became an Guild official because of his influence. But that's because I envied him for being free, and I'm not going to be with him. On the evidence, I said I was leaving the city soon.

The Alliance has a request from a nobleman, so I will use the position of an Alliance official to ride the balls. To do that, you'll have to take a different path, but one day when I have a boyfriend, I'll value each other's men. Well, it was my victory... and that's why I offered to transfer from this city to Hermes. "

She said that, staring at nothing in the air, she declared herself crouched.

"I liked him... but I liked her too."

Perhaps the words are not false. I didn't feel like acting at all.

So Meetya was in that city... and Feng remembered the border city where she first met her.

"The next time I saw you, I said I would bring a good man... That's why today, when I unexpectedly reunited with the two of you, I was in a hurry, and I had you pretend to be my lover. I thought Elise might care if she found out I was still single."

"Really....."

"But maybe you didn't have to."

"... why?

"No matter how flirtatious they are... no matter how much he calls my dad Elise... I didn't think about it. When I left this city, I was wondering if I'd never come back here again... but time will sort it out. Love....."

Her ironically smiling expression exuded a strange beauty, as if it had popped out of some painting. He thought that if a woman fell in love, she would be beautiful, but if she lost, she might be even more beautiful.

"Well, if I'd actually come back on a balloon ride... even though it was good until I went to Hermes, I was in trouble because I didn't have a good encounter in that city. Occasionally, I went to a noble party or something, but even if you think I'm good, somehow everyone sees my face and runs away... I'm not such a dick..."

"No, no, no, no. Miss Meatier is beautiful."

"Well, what the hell, this guy?"

Then she blushed her face and smiled and slaughtered Feng's face. The men fled because, after all, she was scared of the look on her face when she was tempered... but I kept quiet because she was about to be beaten again.

"In this way, the war started, and instead of getting to know the aristocrats, this time it's a big forest. The city burned down....."

"I'm sorry... from now on, I'll tell you before I burn it properly"

"No, don't burn it... but that's fine. This is how I got back to my family, and I was able to meet my friends again."

"Well... then, it's time to go home. I'm still going to get to the village by dinner."

"Ah, if you're hungry, I'll thank you for today.

It wasn't stingy to eat with her and go home.

"Fine, fine, thank you. There's also time for a carriage ride."

"I can't say that. Let's pay for the last Gondola we rode together, how much?

"No, it's fine. I had fun, too, and I said such wild things."

"But then I'm sorry."

Feng still declined her offer and Meatier didn't want to do anything. As usual, Feng thought that he would not be able to understand.

"Now, let me rub your tits.

I'll beat you up. Let's do this.

Having said that, she was receiving an intense punch on her face. Today, I felt a little more gentle than usual, even with a knife that was always wrestling with intense pain. And I always liked her face to look like a demon, but her angry face today looked strange and fascinating.

"Well, shall we go now?

As he stood up and reached out to her, Meatier grasped back the hand as if it were normal. When I pulled her chair so she wouldn't get in the way of her standing up, her face approached and she smiled nicely nearby. Feng remembered it with a smile.

I've been doing this all day today, and when I realized it, I did it like a habit, but when I think about it, it's not the relationship between the two. When she thought so, Feng felt that her face was getting hot, and she unexpectedly lost sight of her. Speaking of which, the glass I just picked up for her had alcohol in it, so it must be because of the alcohol.

Feng remembered the dryness of her throat, and when she let go of her hand, she asked the passing waiter for a drink. Ask him what he wants. Do you have any non-alcoholic drinks? Having said that, I gave you a juice with a name I don't know very well.

Feng received two together with Meatier's share, and gave her the other one, which he wrapped up in his mouth. Does it contain carbonated drinks? It is a refreshing drink with a good throat even though it feels dry in the mouth. It seems that the sweetness will relieve tiredness.

Does it feel like fruit soda? If there were potato chips left, the feast would be over. I thought it was a scientifically and technologically inferior world, but I was impressed to see that this kind of cool drinking water was also born... Feng realized that there was something strange about its ingredients.

It was the main component of the so-called marijuana... fufufu... MP potion. Feng discovered it by using his skill "Museum Atlas".

Why is such a thing contained in a refreshing beverage... MP potion is just blue juice unless it is handled well. In other words, this juice is easy to drink because only that ingredient was extracted. But the MP potion's high-purity crystals are supposed to be a special medicine that only Feng can make....

How the hell did you do that?

"What's the matter?

Feng stared at the glass with a difficult face, and Meatier called out. He asked her if there was any modulation in her body even if she drank this juice.

"I'm sorry, I think I've got something to look into before I go back to the village."

That said, he raised his hand to the waiter patrolling the floor.
