Chapter 461 (1/2)

After that, Tokisaki Kurumi started touring the school with Wu Yan in tow like a normal student. They talked about the places in the school and they would talk like the conversation from before never happened. If not for the golden eye she is hiding, one might not suspect she's a spirit from how she behaved and talked.
Wu Yan didn't say anything about her change in att.i.tude. He just showed her the school like he was told to do. Any outside would be unaware of how their fates have entangled with each other.
The people over at Ratatoskr aren't having a good day right now. They have to constantly monitor Tokisaki Kurumi's action and her emotional state in addition to coming up with scenarios and alternatives to deal with said scenarios. Needless to say, they are probably going to sleep in on their next day off due to the acc.u.mulated fatigue.
Meanwhile, Kotori smashed countless Chupa Chups with her teeth. She feels like Tokisaki Kurumi is playing with her, she is touring the school while making Kotori sit on her edge which infuriates Kotori.
They kept looking around until sunset. As the golden sky started turning darker and darker, their day together is at an end.
Wu Yan felt speechless when he saw how composed Tokisaki Kurumi looked. She glistened in the sun's twilight hour and she beamed at him while elegantly holding onto her school beg.
If possible, Wu Yan would like to ask Tokisaki Kurumi to stay docile like this.
”I am sorry for troubling you this whole afternoon, s.h.i.+do-san…”
Tokisaki Kurumi smiled while tilted her head to one side.
”I had a very fun time…”
Wu Yan studied her expression and she didn't mind it at all. She just kept smiling like a real doll. Wu Yan sighed before he tried to end the conversation.
”I see, well then, Tokisaki Kurumi-san…”
”Please, call me Kurumi.”
Tokisaki Kurumi got very close with him, the kind of distance where Wu Yan felt very pressured by her overly familiar att.i.tude.
”Okay, Kurumi…”
Kurumi seemed genuinely happy that he called her by her first name. She continued.
”s.h.i.+do-san, can you answer one request of mine?…”
”Again?”
Wu Yan's lip twitched.
”Spare me on the offer to join as one with you, I don't want any piece of that…”
”Ara ara, surely you jest…”
Kurumi tilted her head in a cute manner before she pleaded with puppy eyes.
”Actually, I am not familiar with this city. If possible, I would like to impose on you to accompany me while we check out the city?”
Wu Yan flinched.
”I-is this you asking me out on a date?”
”If you will grace me with that chance yes.”
Kurumi smiled. She's not bashful or anything, it's like she is asking him to join her for a dine and wine.
Wu Yan scanned Kurumi but he can't find any weakness in that poker face. She looked earnest enough, if she is faking this she has got some serious acting skills.
