Chapter 24 Shes an Outrageous Natural Airhead (2/2)
[…………………..]

A- Awkward. The combination of her silence and expressionlessness turned everything really awkward. A C- Conversation…… We should have some conversation, at least……
I- It’s alright. I’ve been through a lot since I came to this world, and even though I’m a loner, my communipower should have improved a little bit…… I need something, some kind of clue to initiate our conversation……
Even though we sat daw facing each other…… Having no conversation starting at all, I got a little impatient, so I just turned to the drink placed in front of me while looking for a clue to initiate our conversa—- whoa, this is delicious! What is this black tea? Even though I’m not that knowledgeable about teas, even I can see that it’s outrageously delicious…… Should I say that it’s to be expected from the tea served by God huh…… That’s right, how about we start with this tea……
[T- This tea is quite delicious, isn’t it?]
[I’m glad you like it.]

I can’t push the conversation forward at all!? Or rather, even if I tried to push forward our conversation, I couldn’t continue at all with the combo of her complete lack of facial expressions and voice intonations.
Kuhhh… I guess the level up of my communipower is nothing but my imagination huh. Reality really is ruthless…… I mean, I’m the type of person who basically waits and receives what the other person says.
What I’ve learned in my long, loner life is how to adapt to what the other person is saying…… In other words, the opening conversation is left to the other person, and I’m just basically adapting to that and keeping the conversation going without straining it.
This conversation technique is effective for most people, especially for the type of people like Kuro who is willing to talk to me.
Unfortunately, there’s a fatal flaw in this tactic. It doesn’t work well if I’m talking with the same type of person. This is exactly what’s happening in my current situation with Shiro-san.
I may be able to push forward some topics if I was talking with a normal person, but Shiro-san is a difficult adversary for I don’t know what she’s thinking nor do I even know how to talk with her in the first place…… Shiro-san, anything is fine, but don’t you have anything we could talk about?
[In that case, let me ask you a question—– What did you mean when you said communipower?]
[…… It’s short for communication power, which is basically the power to have a good conversation with others.]
[I see—- Then what does being a loner mean?]
[It basically means someone being alone…… By the way, Shiro-san. Could you possibly be able to read my mind or something like that?]

[I can certainly read your mind.]
[Ah, is that so.]
She just affirmed it as if it’s a matter of course!? Does that mean she had read everything I just said!? That’s really embarrassing……
Then, I think it’s best to let Shiro-san take the lead in this conversation……
[Ah, it won’t do if we don’t have some teacakes, right?]
[…………….]
I’ve been thinking for a while now, but haven’t you gone along with your own pace all these times? Are you that free? Hey, are you that free?
She doesn’t even care about our current situation, and she just switched from one conversation to another with the same expression on her face and voice. It’s a common say in all eras and cultures, but it seems that gods don’t really understand the feelings of people.
[Please enjoy your meal.]
[……Shiro-san, even you too huh……]

To be honest, I had a bad feeling when I heard that she was Kuro’s acquaintance, just like how she showed up in front of me like it was natural. The baby castellas has undoubtedly turned into the thing that I’ve seen the most in this world.
Not having any energy to complain anymore, I pick up a baby castella that I’m already used to eating and put it in my mouth……
[ ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ]
——I feel like fainting in agony.
The moment I take a bite of the baby castella, a piercing spiciness spread in my mouth and it stuck not only in my mouth, but also in my nostrils.
D- Don’t tell me, this is—– Wasabi!?
Eh? Why is there wasabi in the baby castella!? Is she harassing me? Isn’t wasabi in a completely different vector of existence? This should have been a combination that couldn’t exist……
A baby castella filled with wasabi—- A bizarre disproportionate taste of sweetness and spiciness began spreading in my mouth. I began to pour tea into my mouth, desperately wanting for the violent disgusting taste to be washed away.
And just when I moved my gaze to the person who brought out the cruelness incarnate teacakes that carved a new trauma inside of me, Shiro-san brought it to my mouth without any particular change in her expression.
……Why are you eating that normally? Don’t tell me, she isn’t actually trying to harass me and just a regular teacake for her? T- This person…… Don’t tell me that not only her very being, but even her sense of taste is also weird?

[Shi- Shiro-san?]
[What is it?]
[Is that good?]
[No, it’s so bad that I’d rather eat dirt.]
[………….]
Then, at least show a little bit of that kind of feeling in your expression or your voice!!
I mean, in the first place, why the heck did you make that kind of stuff and serve it as teacakes! Say it!!
[Kuro once gave me these as a gift, saying “I tried to make it but it was incredibly bad, so I’m giving these to you.”.]
[……However, didn’t Shiro-san also think that it doesn’t taste good?]
[Yes. It’s hard to believe that a food as terrible as this exists in this world.]

[……Then, why did you offer such a substitute for the teacakes?]
[Kuro told me that “Baby castellas are the best thing to eat with tea.”, and since I want to deepen my friendship with Miyama Kaito-san, I served what I heard was the best thing to welcome you.]
[……However, what about Shiro-san’s thoughts regarding these teacakes?]
[It tastes so bad that I think its very existence should be a sin.]
[……………….]
I think I now understand a little bit regarding this person. Her expression and intonation of her voice don’t change at all as usual, but this person is probably…… A really outrageous natural airhead.
Adding up being a natural airhead to being expressionless and emotionless is a terribly poor disposition. I would like it if you give back all the reverence I felt for you just a short while ago……
[Don’t you think it would be quite difficult for me to return it since it isn’t tangible?]
[……It’s just a metaphor.]
Dear Mom, Dad—— I met God but…… She was eerily expressionless, chillingly emotionless…… And to top it all off—– She’s an outrageous natural airhead.
