403 Spiritual Ability user teacher (2/2)
”This master spiritual artifact craftsman from Huaxia… he seems like quite a powerful character.”
”Yeah. I don't know how far his connections go, but there's no mistaking that he's a major personage.”
”Could he actually be some sort of Huaxia royalty? Mika is actually a real princess!?”
”You're thinking too much into things.”
”Isn't it possible, though?”
”It's also possible for me to be the reincarnation of the strongest Yin-Yang Master in history, Seimei Kamijou.”
”Are you!?”
”I just want to express that there's too many possibilities out there, but they're nothing more than possibilities. Stop thinking so much about them.”
”They're quite interesting to think about.”
”Well, that's up to you then. Go ahead and rest while imagining what you like.” Seiji was about to hang up the call.
”Wait a moment!” Chiaki noticed that he wanted to end the call and stopped him. ”Aren't you curious about that Spiritual Ability user teacher?”
”I am a little curious…”
”Then let's go see her together!”
”Huh?”
”Let's follow Mika and take a look at the person that she's going to meet with!”
Seiji was rendered speechless.
”I don't want to do such a thing.”
”You hesitated just now, didn't you? Actually, you really want to go see!”
”While I do want to go take a look, there'll be chances to meet that teacher later. There's no need to do such a thing. Besides, Mika might have left already.”
”Don't be like that~ Stalking and peeping can be quite fun, you know~”
”Don't say it like you enjoy such activities!”
”It is a Spirit Controller that we don't know, though. Aren't you even a little worried about Mika meeting this person by herself?”
”Er…” This was a good one.
”If you're worried about your clumsy friend and want to secretly protect her, you have to follow her!” Chiaki made it sound like it was an act of justice.
”I feel like you're just covering up your intentions in pretty words…”
”Stalking and peeping are necessary evil! For the greater good!”
”After hearing this, it definitely doesn't sound like it's for the greater good.”
”In order to protect those dear to us, let us transform into the darkness!”
”Even if you use cool-sounding anime lines, it's still the same.”
Seiji thought things over even as he retorted, ”Still, about worrying… I am a little worried, so let's go check things out.”
”Welcome to the dark side!”
”No, I'm still a loyal member of the light.”
Seiji hung up the call and then dialed Mika's number.
”Did you contact Kinchi-san?”
”I did.”
”When and where are you meeting her?”
”One hour later, at the Black Sugar coffee café in the business district… why are you asking about this?”
”Although Zhao-san recommended her to you, she's still a Spirit Ability user that we don't know. I'm a little worried, so I'd like to follow along,” Seiji said. ”I won't join in the conversation, I'll just be around nearby for protection.”
”Seiji…”
”Is that alright with you?”
”Yeah… Thank you,” Mika said with sincere feelings. ”I feel so reassured with you close by.”
”It's good as long as you don't think I'm butting in too much.” Seiji chuckled.
Right now, he felt like an older brother who was worried about his younger sister going to meet an internet friend for the first time. To be more specific, he felt just like Kyousuke Kousaka from My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute!
As an aside, the person Mika was going to meet was named Ruri Kinchi, and had the same first name as one of the main female characters from My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute, Ruri Gokou… it really felt subtle to him.
This Kinchi-san, she wouldn't happen to be just like ”Kuroneko” Ruri Gokou and be a girl with black long hair, have a creamy complexion, red eyes, and be a chuunibyou who enjoyed wearing gothic lolita clothes, would she?
Hahaha, how was that possible? That would be impossible.
Seiji felt like he had been infected by Chiaki with the bad habit of thinking too much into things.
However…
