When She Becomes a Witch
Day Two - Lapis Lazuli's You
The Festival of Sacrificial Flowers (Hikanbana), the second day was blessed with weather.
The wind is rare and modest on the island, and the sun gleams in the blue sky.
Sometimes during the school festival, you don't have to be involved, so a lot of visitors are expected.
In fact, the book cafe at the Western Literature Faculty, to which Aoshiro belongs, is also quite prosperous.
"Lucille. A little early, but like it's time to take a break...... so be it"
When Aoshiro called, the twill wrapped around the maid's clothes swung back.
The slightly shorter hem flicks beautifully and I can see her slightly thinner ankle.
"Yes, Soo...... it wasn't, Senior Lapis Lazuli!
"Ah. Leave the rest to me and Citrine."
"Right. Come on, Twi... it wasn't, uh, Lucille."
The two escort the maid Lucille to the backyard to regain her temper.
"Then shall we try harder until the break, Lapis Lazuli?"
"Yeah, but Citrine doesn't have to either."
Lapis lazuli things while calling each other by their source names Aoshiro and Citrine things Aurelia were kind of funny and I laughed so hard and so much unexpectedly.
The customer service clerks at Western Literature Faculty Outlets and Book Cafes call each other by their source names.
As always, the oddity is alive and well this year.
Aoshiro is the same lapis lazuli as last year. Aurelia similarly citrine. The junior twill is called rutile. They say it comes from minerals that are rutile quartz.
"Um, can I recommend an order and a book, please?
"Uh... I'll be there."
Speaking to the customer, Aurelia flutters her hair and heads to pick up her order, even though she hesitates a little.
She has changed a lot in the past year. Maybe in a good direction.
Thanks to skin care, the scabbard almost disappeared, and these days you're learning makeup from your partner Felicity? Originally he's clever, so he's pretty praised for improving fast.
In fact, it was Aurelia who applied the makeup to Aoshiro today. I don't really know about makeup, but if you take a closer peek into the mirror, your skin does look brighter than usual, your eyes are a step bigger, and your lips look plump.
At the same time I can't help remembering the respect that the women of the world are trying to be more beautiful in this way, while admiring her makeup skills.
As Aoshiro stood unexpectedly with his palm on his cheek blurry, he was gathering his surrounding gaze. When I thought I'd just pretend to tidy up my bookshelf, because it wasn't something I'd accumulate if they thought I was skipping.
The person appeared.
As always, I wear only a few tailored suits, my hair is unmade, and my chin grows a little bearded. Such a dressed imperial kingdom.
"Hey, Aoshiro. You're a maid of honor this year."
"... my uncle... good day to you."
"Good afternoon. That doesn't seem to change the way it looks. Can I have your seat here?
Take a hat and sit in the chair deliberately. If you want to do it, you can make perfectly sophisticated moves in the courtesy of the nobility.
"You didn't have to be late for ship time this year."
Aoshiro showed with a grand sigh.
... I can't stop saying that I'm really glad you're here.
"Don't be so sarcastic, my sweet nephew. I'd like to order something other than carbonated water this year."
"Nevertheless, it's just something simple because it's what students do. This will be the menu."
Upon giving him a thick paper with a menu written by hand, his uncle immediately decided to place an order.
"Right, I want to order lemonade. I like it cold.... I'm in a hurry, so I sweated a little."
In fact, you're right, I still sweat on my uncle's forehead and neck when he says it's spring.
……
"Uncle, I need to ask you something later. I'd like to talk to you in the afternoon, please give me some time."
"Oh, what the hell, are you here? It's rare."
Aoshiro dared to say so in a cold voice as he wished, and turned his back.
"... no, because that's not what I'm saying"
If you dress like this and you smile for sales, a simple boy student will fall off like that.
… these are the thankful words of our Director of Western Literature.
I wondered if there was such an idiot... but the saying from a group of boys students that they are sending an enthusiastic gaze, the word is probably true.
"Oh, uh, Mr. Lapis Lazuli, what is your recommended book"
"Do you have any other recommendations?
"My favorite writer, my favorite book is"
"No, I want to know more about what Mr. Lapis Lazuli likes, not just the book!
They're wearing a red tie. I mean, it's a grade. I see, the generation that doesn't know about Aoi Biro at last year's school festival.
Once they are also guests, treat them politely as guests.
But that's all.
"Sorry, you are not supposed to answer that question"
I just cut it and threw it away, but still one of the bad guys who gives up offers.
"Um, could you come around the school festival with us!
"I'm sorry, that's not on the menu, so be it. If you don't have an order, at this."
Return the heel, shake the frill and retreat to the wall.
Ha, and I'm sighing.
Apparently, rumors are spreading around the first grade about Aoshiro as The Lapis Lazuli's You.
Girl students like oriental princesses serve customers...... or something.
Aoshiro touches his cheek once again with a pepper.
Damn, makeup is a big deal. Because I, the man, am called a princess.
"I guess Aoshiro's womenswear and the disturbances that accompany it will be the seasonal festive poems of this already"
At some point the manager who came put his hand on Aoi's shoulder. Because it's heavy, I want it to go away.
"I don't know what that means, General."
Puku, and when he puffs his lips and shows them, somehow the twitching happened among the guests, he decides not to care anymore.
