Seika bounces back and takes a distance from me.
I have never seen that face ……with a bewitching smile before.
“Hey, are you still drunk? Stop joking. Its important.”
When I take a step to grab her arm, she jumps back one more step to make fun of me. The atmosphere is different than usual.
She leans her back on a big tree and swipes the bible cover with her finger.
I feel strange sexuality in the gesture. Her hairs are totally different from usual.
Something is strange, something is strange. Seika wont do it even if she is drunk.
“I’ll get angry if you dont stop it..”
“Oh, scary scary”
The words which returned were of a man whom I didn not recognize.
A man appeared behind the large tree and Seika leans on him.
“Yoshio …”
Carol holds my hands tightly.
She seems to be terrified of the man atmosphere in a different world.
I am worried about the language barrier.
“Like I said, its fine.”
I put Carol behind me and step forward.
If I were to describe the man in one word then he is a heavy metal bandman. Dyed Blond hair which is not like the natural golden hair of Carol. Countless piercings on the ears and lips.
Jeans full of holes as if taken recessive damage and shirt of a foreign brand.
A type which I never would be.
“Who are you?”
“I don’t think you want to hear my name. Well no matter who I am. I just want this book.”
He grabs the bible in the hand of Seika.
Seika passed the book without any resistance while smiling and staring at the bandman.
An expression which can only be defined as of someone fallen in love.
My hear beats violently just by looking at that face. I can judge whether my feelings are jealousy or anger.
But even though my blood is boiling, my head is cool.
Normally, they will loook as lover but thats not normal. What was normal was yesterday’s experience.
“… Do you know what the book is?”
“It’s the Bible of God of Fate. I don’t know how you brought it into this world. You know, I have something similar.”
The bandman took out his smartphone. A screen similar to the game is shown on the screen.
No way….Stay calm and cool.
“Are you a Player?”
“Oh, you understand quickly.”
“What did you do to Seika?”
“Don’t you think we are lovers?”
Their appearance looks like that of a spoiled lovers. However,
“Your face is not to her liking.”
I dont know Seika’s type but I can proudly say that she will hate him.
“I don’t care about the stupid exchanges, answer the questions. I’m asking you that if you know the book. And what did you do to her?”
I talked smoothly without being scared….I am really amazed that I can keep up with this.
In the old days, I was never terrified of the other party’s appearance. However now I have faced life crisis twice.
There is also Carol behind me. I cant give her a weak and bad impression.
“Hey, let’s enjoy the conversation. You are a boring man. You’re the God of Fate in the game?
Is he a evil God player just like Yamamoto?
I think that he can manipulate minds.
Normally only a smart guy will realize this but I immediately realized that it is the case.
“Why did Seika become like that, maybe because of your power? Isn’t the Evil God side only controlling the monsters in the game?”
“Oh, don’t you know about that? There are quite a few gods on the side of the Lord God and there are quite a few on the side of the Evil god. I’m the God of Temptation, I can amplify or mess with others’ desires like you can control Destiny. Especially if one is weakened or drunk and unconscious Then it’s easy to do it.”
He embraces Seika but she doesnt make a disgusting face. On the contrary, her face loosens as if drunk.
I am the God of Fate but I cant control the fate in the real world. But this guy can use the power from the fantasy world?
Is there a secret which I did not know about and it is still hidden in the game?
And … wait a minute. He said “amplify the desires”.
Listening to those words, one question pops in my mind. Maybe….
“Maybe you … met with Yamamoto yesterday?”
“Oh, you noticed that ex-NEET? Bingo! Before he went to your house to play, the loser lost his brain.”
His appearance of tilting his neck and sticking out his tongue is giving me a murderous feelings.
It was because of this guy that Yamamoto-san was driven into such madness.
“Wow, scary face. I just told that I just amplified his desires. It’s a harmless to those who dont want much….and again. Thank you!”
All his actions are irritating me.
Calm down. Calm down. If I lose my calm here, i would be playing into his hands. Maybe he is trying to upset me and manipulate my mind.
But this guy talks well though he has no obligations to tell me about his abilities.
“Why does a evil player want my Bible?”
“There are people who will buy your Bible for high price.”
…… Buy it. Why?
What will they do with it after buying it? I dont know what he wants.
“I like things like this!”
“Hey, really, you dont understand the value and the real power and meaning of this game … you dont seem to know anything.”
This bandman just said something meaningful, contrary to what he is thinking.
And regarding his hand around Seika’s waist … I want to beat him now but he seems light hearted so I will give priority to the information.
…… Now, be patient, be patient.
“Can you tell me more because I don’t even know it?”
“Well, I’m sorry. I was alone in this cold sky, I just came out to see a face full of regret. Its getting late and you dont look good”
He grabbed Seika’s chest while saying that, I don’t need to be patient anymore …
I walk up the bandman in silence.
“Hey, are you angry? Or are you going to bootlick me?”
There is the Bible in one and other hand is holding Seika.
Even if he has the weapon in his possession, he will be hit first.
In the end, when I tried to attack him, he pushed Seika towards me.
When I hurriedly looked at her face, she was already fainted.
She leaned on me as her whole body was falling.
“Hey, I have the book. I dont need her.”
Recently there have been lot of violent developments so I thought he was going to start a fight but he is running away from me.
I call Carol and put Seika on the bench.
“I’m sorry but please look after her!”
