Vol 10 Chapter 3 (1/2)
A Day For You 01
Whenever she came across those words, Felli would say, without any expression, ”Stupid”
It was the day known as Van Allen's Day A tradition fron city, it should have no connection to Zuellni Last year though, every confectionery that knew of Van Allen's Day had gone on anow
Nu, bold letters were posted inside every building
Beyond that, those poster's had
”To that person on your s”
”This is the taste of ether with a mature atmosphere about you”
written on them, andit wasn't only coffee shops and confectioneries; restaurants had also put out some of those posters and advertised ahead of time
Van Allen's DayA special day where sweets are given to that special person of the opposite sex, and by those s are shared
Of course, this custoossip about another city
Zuellni had no connection with it
Though there was no connection, with an interest in love this season, the students had gathered information with the fervor expected of an academy city It was a completely simple matter for such a craze to spread like wildfire
”Stupid” Felliher usual route hoht about dinner plans, and suddenly those posters were everywhere She was fed up with it In order to increase their revenue, the business departies and tried theenerally dropped by the can committees Coffee shops, restaurants, and enerally advertised with a rocery stores advertised with a female audience in mind
Guys irls out On the other hand, girls were subjected to advertising for classes and things on how to irls spend ti me'
Without any words, Felli irocery store If women could spend their time and suddenly make delicious treats, there wouldn't be any trouble If men could spend money and still be at ease, there would also be no worries
'Good grief'
The posters were visible all around the city, so one would have to be an idiot to forget about it Felli discretely let out a sigh
And
”Fuu, I bought a lot, didn't I~”
The nonchalant voice, along with its owner, eirl spoke happily and had a carefree expression on her face Contrary to what she said, she was only using one ar, but was apparently left with a satisfied expression on her face But, Felli's eyes weaved their way to the rear of the group
”So, you don't think this aly unhappy, with a bag full of cheap lettuce in each hand It was Nina
”But you can finally go out and try lots of different foods You wanted to irl declared opti a headache for
”Selina-san, isn't there so?”
”No~t at all~”
To the person of the opposite sex you care about, a confession of love that intent of Van Allen's Day was disregarded, even to Felli
”Whatever I'veI placed before you, so I can s, can't I~”
”Selina-san”
It appears that she intends to experi Her uniform was from the Alche
”It's too bad the Heartseer fruit hasn't arrived, isn't it~? The shops had been coht the ht up in thatcultivation's also failed, I wonder?”
”That's kind of suspicious”
”It's nothing like that We're talking about taste”
”It doesn't seem suspicious for even a minute?”
”However even if it's a small amount, when properly made, it has a positive result on proper nourishment, recovery frost other things”
”Which energy drink is that?”
”Well~, that is so we'll have another chance to try, won't we~? It'll be OK~ Since I'll properly think of soive a present”
”No, I wasn't planning on that kind of thing”
”No~ way, it would be bad if you didn't give anything to the guy on your own platoon, wouldn't it?”
”No, that's because”
Fros had stopped, became unable to hear theht of Nina's dis in and out of the crowd Meanwhile, she also glared at the newly discovered rival before her
◇
He heard a clanking sound
”Felli, what're you doing? This is”
Having returned to the room just now, his nose assaulted by an offensive s his nose with a handkerchief
His younger sister was standing in the kitchen Just because of that, there was already trouble
Going through the handkerchief, the irritating sed to enter
The clanking noise that was heard was froether, they were siblings who couldn't cook Thus as one would expect, he couldn't believe that the sound ca
”Felli?”
”Be quiet”
Gazing at the saucepan, Felli's eyes were tinged with an earnest light Karian couldn't help but s his question as he held his breath
”Just a little bit longer”
With the clock grasped fir it and the pot, as well as adding a few drops frosed
”It's ready”
”W, whatis?” A trace of ominous, black smoke rose fro, the entire kitchen would be filled with a black haze As Felli lifted the pot cautiously, it was obvious that so
”Elder brother, please sample this”
What was placed onto a plate was then cut up with a kitchen knife, and after placing some on a smaller plate, it was presented in front of Karian's nose without hesitation
”Unh”
”Please sath to not say any words of disinterest Karian had, after taking several steps back, lost the ability to s
”Please wait a moment That's it! I remembered I have unfinished work in the student council rooent, that is”
With his oords, he pushed his In order to run fro odor, Karian quickly turned around fros had stopped once s filled with flakes
”Sa back, he could see Felli standing with her silver hair shi+ning
”If that talent were to fully reatly please h to co on the s, strange, dark matter, Karian averted his eyes
Van Allen's Day
Until recently, that name, which held no particular import, had in that mind, rose to its surface
(F, For the love of)
Last year had Felli coldly disregarding the Business Departns, and yet this year doesn't seeer sister who harbored no interest in others was currently interested in the opposite sex It made him lonely, but happy at the sa, I would draw closer to my cold demise
(Remember this Layfon-kun)
”Coh, erm”
Felli stabbed a piece with the fork Some charred portions had, under that pressure, broken off She could possibly force it into his frantically shut lips
No escape The surroundings continued to fill with flakes, enveloping him to the point where not even an insect had roo A flake mine? Felli could make explosions herself, and in addition, there was only a short distance between the into account these factors, he couldn't come out of this unscathed Karian's tined ht If this one bite was finished, it would be all over The anxiety about the thought of those prepared ingredients entering a person's er In it existed the special qualifications necessary to label it as food, but to obtain those things today was ier sister
(How's the taste? It see, Karian opened his ue, that ah-, Guo-!”
He couldn't stop hi out the words he spat out An i consciousness, Karian braced his ar on the inside of hisopen Each ti inside his ue beca, could it be the taste buds on his tonguedown one by one!?
”Ha, Ha”
It was said that the taste buds on the tongue numbered about ten thousandwhy in the world would you lose the about it, his body trembled in terror
”It appears that it's failed, hasn't it?”
Felli's disinterested voice had turned toward Karian's skull
”Well then, next sa out the next dish
”Whatdid you say?”
A cold sweat poured from his head and the small of his back
Van Allen's Day
A name that he didn't worry about had, this moment today, carved itself a memory of fear and beca had co service The reason for this was that the kitchen had fallen into ruin Leaving this battlefield, Felli took a shower and washed away her fatigue
After sliding on the sleeves of her spare uniform, she undid the towel coiled around her head, used to dry her hair It was an easy habit to get into, diligently brushi+ng her hair to check her own appearance in aand left the roo roo on the palm of her hand, a small box sat neatly wrapped and tied with a ribbon In order for it not to becoreat care and looked at her older brother's room
”Well then, I'm off”
”Try your best”
The moan-like reply cah Did he catch a cold froht? Since his movements weren't sufficient compared to normal, his body had definitely weakened
”Slovenly”
”Sorry, but can you convey thetoday?”
”I understand”
”I' more could be heard fro left to worry about, she left the ht till dawn, the sun's rays were intense Felli narrowed her eyes and, until they becaht, stood stock still
(Now, the proble early
The thing was completed More ti the duration of sleep
How to hand it over?
That was the extent of the problein with, Layfon's year was different If the year is different, facilities would also be different, and the chances ofa student of a different year would be small
At any rate, Zuellni was one of those places said to be a city only for students The nu to be trifled with
If there was any chance to reliablyhours If it were left until after school, it would co facility
(There is no other time to ai able to open her eyes, Felli set out
However
How should she ti over?
That was the next proble facilityit would probably be useless Surely, Nina would be faster than Felli, without a doubt Above all, Sharnid would be an eyesore It was only a matter of time before she would be discovered, and if that were to happen she didn't know if she could say so
(In that case, it would be better to be seen by someone unfamiliar than someone as)
In the event that soer didn't know her nao to the first year facilities
It would be good if she could go Soo and hand it to him There was no other tio with tha)
No, wait
All appearance of reasonable thought had suddenly halted Her legs wouldn't stop Cal forward, her previously halted thoughts restarted
Going to the first year facilities That's fine Layfon would be there If she were to hand it over at the training facility, an acquaintance, particularly Sharnid, would see her It would be better to avoid that
In that case, the first year facilities That was the conclusion she reached soo
There she ran into an issue
(Wait, Felli You are forgetting soer, she thought
Who would be at the first year facilities? Layfon would be there However, it wouldn't be just hiirl was there
(Meishen Trinden!)
After re that person, Felli looked up towards the sky
With that cowering cairl was there with for her familial appearance
(How absurd)
In the classrooirl was there Those toirl are there If she were to hand it over, there would be no doubt that she would be stopped by the gaze of those three She couldn't think of Layfon flaunting the things he received from other people, but if he were to face the curiosity of those three, ould happen?
Layfon's weakness to pressure was first-class They would be seen through without a doubt
If that were the case, ould happen?
Meishen would see the sweets, or so Felli, Meishen had
(Ku)
How ridiculous
(Inside the school building, the gazes are too numerous)
In this hopeless situations, Felli's ood idea didn't cole on to school
The restless atued the classrooh the boys would always chat loudly and idly, on the contrary they seetheir voices aed conversation and kept glancing at the boys, who asserted an unconcerned air
Unprepared for the thick at over the classrooh up until last night Felli held so in it After feebly greeting her class herself, Felli fell prostrated at her desk
(However, co to withdraw)
How should she go about losing the public gaze while getting the chance to hand it to him? In her mind, this continued to torment Felli
”ErrrLoss-san”
With her name called, Felli came to her senses and she then lifted her head
”Yes?”
An unfamiliar female student stood nearby The uniform, like her brother's, was fro she wasn't a student from this class, but not only that, she was also an upperclassman
”What is it?”
”Well, Karian-kun isn't here today and so I ondering, what's going on? Everyday before class, he comes to the student council room, but it doesn't appear that he will even come to class”
”Ah, if it's about my brother”
On that subject, Felli coe Karian had entrusted her with
”His physical condition is poor, and so he said he's taking today off”
”Eh, is that so? You say he's taking the day off, is it that serious?”
The female student listened with an awfully flustered look on her face
”Is he alright?”
She probably thought it was just a case of lack of sleep
”Oh, wellKarian-kun has a usual habit of pushi+ng hiht up with hiht however, the female student in front of her had arbitrarily came to her own conclusion Without the willpower to stop her, Felli left her to her own devices
”Hey You and Karian-kun live together, don't you? I want to go nurse hiht?”
Felli rolled her eyes at this girl's proposal
”Ah, will that be too troublesome?”
It seems she had an unusual facial expression
”Ah, no I have no objections Do you know the address?”
”Yeah That's alright”
”Well then, do as you please”
”Thanks”
With so, the upperclassman, whose name she did not know, left the classroo her fro of her own
In other words, if there wasn't a chance for theether, she would have to create a chance to be alone with him
Afternoon recess Felli turned up at the school building's rooftop One could say the rooftop was usually left eotten, this place wasn't very popular Nearby, there was a park with a better appearance Unless a student took the time to prepare a meal beforehand, they wouldn't come to this place
But, of course today would be different from normal
Each and every spot on all of the benches were co ahile eating see of sweets
”Kuu”
In order to not be caught in these couples' field of vision, Felli concealed herself in the shadow of the entryway
After restoring her Dite, she released her flakes
The place targeted was the first year facilities
And yet, Layfon's figure was not in the classroo”
Irritated, Felli broadened the scope Within a corner of the hectically processedMeishen's handmade bento came to mind
Before, there were tiather those iht today she would be searching for Meishen on her own prerogative
She and those two noisy girls she called her childhood friends were having lunch alone
Layfon wasn't there
In that case where is he? The thought of Layfon's absence putting Felli at ease, she continued to broaden the scope
(Good grief)
AfterLayfon for the first tiain coht
(I a ht that, she couldn't stop her search Felli sighed as she searched for Layfon's figure
(There)
Finally found hi of relief, she confirhtly tense at in the air, as a Psychokinesis other than Felli's was in the vicinity The warehouse district At this place which stored provisions and things produced in Zuellni, exa himself
”Fon Fon?”
[Uwah! Felli?]
Silencing hi the situation, Layfon ti?”
[This is for my part-time job with the City Police, however]
At the reply made with a concealed voice, for an instant Felli had furled her eyebrows, but immediately reconsidered this as a chance
(If that's the case, it is possible to be alone together)
Known as the warehouse district, the place did not have a good business condition The problem was the existence of another Psychokinesist, but if Felli proposed to collaborate on this, the probability of her taking charge of Layfon was high
”With the city police? What is it this time?”
[Wellthis is This incident concerns the illegal iain?”
[This tiredient in cooking Being targeted, it's being used to lure out the culprit
In addition, there see]
And so, is he alone at that kind of place?
If that's the case, then proposing to collaborate would probably not be strange
”I see, shall I lend you a helping hand?”
[Eh?]
”What is it?”
So surprised, sounded h her presence was inopportune Differing from her expectations, Felli felt offended and asked in response
”Would my involvement be useless?”
[Th, That isn't what I , this ti of a rather special circu would come out of this if I don't use my own discretion]
”Such a repetitive responsewhat is that for? If we talked it over with that upperclassman, wouldn't it be fine?”
[That isn't quite the case]
”Well then, ould you call it?”
[Ah, please wait one moment]
The other Psychokinesist addressed Layfon, Felli becah, is that true!?]
Suddenly, Layfon shouted
[Aah, no]
”What happened?”
[Sorry, I am in a bit of a hurry, so with this Ah, it doesn't look like I will be able to go to today's training, so please convey thethat in a low voice, Layfon rushed froh speed
”Ah!”
Flakes had yet to be deployed in Layfon's area It may have still been possible to pursue hiht of hi Psychokinesis to flow se, even Felli would succuh people have their own problems”
If she were persistent, she wouldwasn't there
”Haa”
Her body felt heavy even though the fatigue fro with a breath, whatever was driving her till now slipped out
◇
When afternoon break ly returned to class It seeles had coood spirits and those eren't They were in luck as alh class reservations to shops That approach directed the formation of a different atmosphere
”Ur”
Fro voice could be heard, at which point Felli froze in horror Up until now, she could coldly brush it all aith the phrase, ”Not interested” On the contrary, feeling the self she brushed aside, she felt h the stifling atht, she sole to her own seat
”Haa”
Really nowwith that overlapping a sigh, Felli lifted her head Come to think of it, this environ her head, shein the seat next to her
”Ah, good afternoon” ` After finishi+ng her greeting, that fe at the desk with vacant, drooping eyes
Feeling an overwhel sense of failure, Felli unintentionally overlooked the situation and inquired further
”What is it?”
The girl's na black hair, she didn't think her ie was bad, however usually she cut herself off from the rest of the class and stayed in darker corners of the room In a similar situation, Felli, who didn't usually associate with other classmates, was treated as equally eccentric
”Fu, fu, fufu” While looking at the desk, Eri leaked a voice with laughter ”Sweets, huh? I lost them somewhere”
”Eh?”
”FufufuSo ht, the sweets, huh? Fufu, fufufufufu”
”That is, how should I ht It was clumsy of ht”
At long last, that dry laugh subsided
”Ah”
”FufufuSuch a miserable conversation topic”
Eri also had someone she wanted to hand sweets to
”Please don't be discouraged Besides, if not today, there will be another chance”
