696 Id be interested in a beautiful girl (1/2)
Seiji started walking home after he left the café and took Karen back to her home.
'Perhaps I shouldn't have told her that idea,' Seiji thought to himself.
Having Karen become Kaho's enemy and intentionally angering the latter so that they would fight each other… This was unmistakably a terrible idea!
If Karen managed to suppress Kaho, perhaps Kaho would be successfully forced into abandoning the demon energy. However, there were too many unpredictable elements with this plan. And even if it succeeded, it might completely ruin the sisters' relationship, which seemed so pitiful to Seiji.
Karen had fallen silent after hearing this idea. It seemed really difficult for her to accept.
This was far too difficult of a choice. Even now, Seiji felt that maybe he shouldn't have said it out loud.
But if he didn't say it, Karen wouldn't even have a single choice…
Seiji suddenly stopped in his footsteps.
There was a vending machine before him. A silver-haired boy who wore a black yukata was currently inserting some coins into the vending machine and apparently deciding on a beverage.
This seemed like quite an ordinary scene. However, what Seiji saw was that this boy had suddenly appeared!
The silver-haired boy hadn't walked over from front or behind. He had suddenly appeared with magic… Basically, when Seiji noticed, this boy was already standing in front of the vending machine.
Had Seiji been too lost in his thoughts to notice the boy's presence?
That wasn't it!
Seiji was absolutely certain that this boy had suddenly appeared, as if he walked out of the darkness.
”I originally wanted some green tea, but there's a new brand of juice that just came out. I'm thinking that perhaps I want to try that instead,” the silver-haired boy spoke up and looked at Seiji. ”Which do you think is better, Haruta nii-san?”
He had a handsome appearance and purple eyes with rather pale skin. The silver-haired boy also had a happy smile and seemed to be the open and casual type.
Something flashed in Seiji's eyes as he walked over.
”May I ask who you are?”
”I asked you first, we should go by order.” The boy pointed at the vending machine. ”Which do you think is better between green tea and fruit juice?”
Seiji glanced at the options.
”I would choose green tea.”
”Why's that?”
”We should answer the questions in order.”
The silver-haired boy blinked to hear his earlier statement being used against him.
”My name is Itsuki Kamitani. This is our first meeting. Pleased to meet you.” He smiled and then pressed the button for fruit juice.
The vending machine instantly spat out a can of fruit juice.
Kamitani took the fruit juice, opened it up, and started gulping it down. He instantly revealed an expression that the juice was rather sour.
He was rather surprised to see that Seiji was simply walking off.
”Pleased to meet you, Kamitani-san. Have a good night.” Seiji waved his hand goodbye.
”Wait a moment, don't leave!” Kamitani chased after Seiji. ”I came here just for you! Aren't you curious why I came to meet you?”
”Although I'm curious, I doubt it's anything good. That's why, goodbye.”
”Don't be like that! Normally, wouldn't a person at least talk for a little more?”
”I'm already tired and want to go home. I don't want to deal with a suspicious person who suddenly appeared.”
”You should call me a mysterious person instead! A normal person should be quite curious about a mysterious handsome boy who suddenly appeared before him and even knows his name!”
”I'm sorry; although you do have a nice appearance, I don't think you're at the standard of a handsome boy. Besides, I might be interested in a beautiful girl, but I don't care about boys.”
”That's terrible! So you're someone who's ruled by the lower half of your body!”
”It's perfectly normal for boys to be interested in beautiful girls.”
”I suppose you're right… no, wait! This isn't a reason to abandon a handsome boy like myself!”
”I said that you don't count as a handsome boy.”
”Even if I don't count, you shouldn't just leave me like that!”
