Summer holidays; the second biggest event for a high school student after the school sports event. Holidays where one could spend his days shutting himself in his room and not going to school. One free from homework, it becomes a blessing time of leisure. Right at the moment, Im spending the perfect summer holidays.
Aah. all I wanted was this life.
I made sure to enjoy every second of this time while laying in my bed. I let out all the stress from my body and relaxed, letting the bed take care of my body. This is it; this is what I wanted for a long time. Ive gone through a series of unfortunate events recently and I almost forgot about this bliss.
You look happy, master.
I heard Merus voice coming out from the phone I which kept near the pillow.
Yeah, I missed this feeling too much.
Watching reply with a blessed expression while relaxing in bed, she replied with a gentle smile. It feels weird to be looked at with those eyes by a little girl, but that doesnt matter now. For now, I need to focus on healing my mental health that deteriorated from using that unpleasant magic.
Germa was taken back to the prison by Lina and Sara after that incident on the island. Luckily, they dragged Scala as well and took her away from me, but later, Lina passed me her verbal message saying that she will come play with me again.
Id rather never meet her again in my entire life if that means that we will have another ridiculous fight to the death. I just dont understand why I have to have a fight with death as a game. I wonder why she likes doing that to herself.
I need to use this opportunity to relax
I cant tell when that demon in the form of a god will show up again. If I dont rest as much as possible before she comes back, this time I will die without a doubt. As I turned to the other side while still laying on the bed, I remembered the other verbal message I had from a different person.
This time it was Germa. I was told that he left the following message to me before he was recaptured and sent back to the prison: I will surely come back to you again, Kamiya Yato. I will surely kill you one day. There should not be any human who could defeat a God, after all!!
It would be nice if he would escape to another world the next time he decides to run away from that prison. Seriously, Gods with too much pride are really annoying. About the way he escaped from the Infinite Prison, it was apparently because of his own powers. He was apparently absorbing the hatred of the other prisoners inside while waiting to get enough energy to be able to escape.
Thats why this time around, he will be imprisoned in private jail where the chance he could absorb others hatred and escape is extremely low. With that, I dont think that I will ever get to see Germa again, which is indeed a nice thing. All thats left is Scala. I recalled the time I was playing with her recently. Lets stop thinking about it.
I guess Im going to have to prepare some skill for the next battle
I honestly dont want to leave this room, but I also dont want to die the next time we fight. The problem is that once I lay on the bed, moving my body again becomes next to impossible. As I kept laying on my bed and thinking about how I can motivate myself to move again, I heard my phone ringing.
Hm, a phone call?
I turned only my head towards the phone and Meru informed of the name calling.
Master, its someone called Ishida Tesuji.
Ishida Tesuji? Ah, its that old man.
Since I always call him old man and didnt meet him for a while now, I totally forgot his name. I requested Meru to answer the call.
[ED: Remember him? Hes that detective guy who knows about Yatos secret.]
Answer it, Meru. Understood, Desu.
Answering to my request with a lively voice, Meru answered the incoming call. Seconds later, a low, raspy-toned voice came out from the phone.
Oi, Yato. I bet youre laying in your bed right now just because its summer holidays. What do you need, old man?
Ignoring his nonsensical remarks, I asked him for the reason he called.
Well, I just wanted to check on how youre doing, you know, so yeah, I just wanted to hear your voice. Im hanging the call if that was it.
He said that last part with a strangely clear voice. The moment I heard it, I moved the phone away from my ear and went to hang up the phone before suddenly
Ah, wait wait!! That was a joke! A joke! There is a reason for my call actually!!
Then say it already. After listening to him desperately explaining his situation, I stopped my hand that was about to end the call. Did he really have to say something like I just wanted to hear your voice? Dont you dare say something like that with that raspy voice of yours. If it were not me who knew him for a long time now, Id have immediately cut the call. I let out a sigh in the conversation before I heard Meru speaking.
This person has a scary face, Desu!
She probably used the old mans phone camera to see his face and returned to me after she got scared of his grim face. The moment Meru spoke, I heard a huh? coming from the phone.
Did I hear the voice of a little girl just now? Many things happened.
When I wrapped his question with a single line because I was too lazy to explain everything to him, the old man seemed like he had realized something and spoke with an uncomposed voice.
D-Dont tell me! Did you fall for some grade schooler and brought her home with you [ED: ( ) ( )] I will be ending the call now. Im sorry.
The old man constantly apologized after sensing the killing intent that was included in my voice. Seriously, why would I fall for a grade schooler anyway? Stop it with those jokes already. Getting already tired of his stupid jokes, I told him to speak about what he wanted from me already.
So? What do you want? Is it help with some investigation? Y-Yeah, about that
As expected, the old man seemed to hesitate to talk about the matter, but to put all that he said together, the current case is about finding someone. The person he must find is suspect in an important case who disappeared all of a sudden and because of that, the investigation of the case is delayed.
Thus, the old man came to ask for my help. I did understand the importance of the matter, but even I also have a mission to heal my mental and physical exhaustion I accumulated all this time. I feel bad for him, but Im going to have to refuse his request.
So, can you help me out?
