The Crisis World XX

Chap. 65: Buying Materials

After the sudden determination of internal competition in the classroom, it should be an exciting time. But not for me.

I just want to have fun with my two friends, but why do I have to be in a group with two girls. Argh!! What is called destiny? I want to meet him and protest about a lot of things.

"Your face is getting grim again, you see."

"Are you thinking about something, Iraya-kun?"

Herlin and Mei-senpai who were walking beside me realized that I was putting on a face like the world was doomsday. I immediately tried to express myself as usual again and in my heart said that I should accept all of this.

"No, there's nothing. I'm just hungry."

I reasoned hungry and hid my real thoughts because if I told them. I had to get ready with the sharp talk coming out of Herlin's mouth, so I decided to just lie. Besides, right now I'm hungry too, so it's not entirely a lie.

"True, huh? We haven't had lunch yet. Do you want to stop by Family Mart first?"

Herlin and I immediately agreed with Senpai with a nod. At first we went straight to the training ground. But back together, it never hurts to stop by first. We went to the Family Mart and talked about the next exercise.

After the food we had all come, we ate it together. On the sidelines of eating it, Herlin then told about the next exercise, which is a combination.

"Wombwination?"

"Don't talk when your mouth is full, because it sounds annoying."

I swallowed the food in my mouth and then asked the same question again.

"Combination? Whatchu mean?"

"Now you are no longer alone, Iraya, there is Mei-senpai now. So I want to train your cooperation so that later if faced with a strong opponent, the possibility of winning will be great."

"so. Yeah, I don't mind anyway. What about Senpai?"

"I don't have a problem either. But what I'm thinking about now is how our cooperation will be."

"I've thought about it."

Herlin then took two fries which he then put on our plate and used as an example.

"Iraya is a melee fighter, so he is in charge of attacking incoming opponents. Senpai is a long-range fighter who attacks from a safe distance. Senpai's job is to help Iraya if she's in trouble. Oh yeah, Senpai can fly, right? How long can Senpai fly in the air?"

"Depending on my stamina, I used to only be able to fly for ten minutes. But because of the training you gave, the duration increased to thirteen minutes."

"So not too long, huh? Should I train harder?" herlin Mumbles.

"please don't. The practice is already hell, don't make it any worse."

The new Senpai felt the training that Herlin gave me the beginning. But he called it hell. I don't know in the future whether Senpai can still live or not. I can only give a pityful smile to Senpai.

"Oi, Iraya-kun! Don't just smile. My training has been really hard, right?"

"Yes .. it …."

I'm not sure if I tell you the truth, whether Senpai will continue to practice with us again or not.

"Yafay-kun?"

"Actually ... There is still something worse than that" I said slowly while recalling the hell that was given by Herlin at that time.

"So there's still more weight?"

"Just calm down, I'll do that for another time. For now we'll do the combination exercise first."

"Well …."

Senpai and I answered with a tone and gaze like a dead person. Mentally.

Senpai then changed the topic to be more relaxed and like a normal person. It seemed like he wanted to eliminate his trauma by pretending to be a normal person. I understand his feelings, but it won't last long.

"By the way, what is your class doing? Suddenly I was drawn into it."

"Ahh that .. Our class held a competition to make 3D replicas of living beings. I don't know why either, but they said to celebrate two days' worth of free time."

"Is that something to celebrate?"

"I also think that way."

"But isn't this a good thing?"

Herlin then interrupted our conversation.

"It never hurts to do this at all times. Having fun with friends, isn't that the most important thing?"

I smiled at Herlin's statement. True, lately I have always faced Spirit, Beast, and Exception. I want to go back to my normal life. So as Herlin said, this is a good thing.

And I remember that we made a promise with Hasuki-san for shopping tomorrow.

"Oi'm Herlin!"

"What's wrong?"

"Aren't we supposed to be shopping with Hasuki-san now?"

Herlin who was finishing his drink who stayed a little more then fell silent. He turned his eyes up and tried to remember. Then after a while, he woke up.

"You're right …."

"Then why are we even relaxing here?!"

"I'll forget."

I also finished my hamburger and fries quickly. Then then stand up and pull Herlin out of here. Herlin and I immediately headed to the place promised before.

"How was the training?" ask Mei-senpai.

"Tomorrow! Tomorrow we'll start the combination exercise huh, Senpai! Bye bye!"

I raised my voice because I had already run away from Mei-senpai. While Mei-senpai who was left alone by the two of us, could only puff her cheeks and grumble in annoyance.

He then intends to leave that place as well. But one of the Family Mart staffers dismissed him.

"Can I help you?"

"The three of you haven't paid for the food."

"Ap—?! Da-Dasar .. BRASH CHILDREN …!!!"

Despite yelling annoyed so, but Mei-senpai could not escape from the cruel reality. Finally he paid for his food as well as paying for Iraya and Herlin's food.

*Home Hasuki Chifu*

Meanwhile at Hasuki-san's house, he who had just returned home was immediately greeted by the ranks of his servants.

"Welcome, Chifu-sama."

But Hasuki-san doesn't respond to him too much because this is something that he experiences every day. That's why he's tired of this kind of reception. He then gave her school bag to be carried by one of his servants.

The other servant then asked Hasuki-san something.

"Chifu-sama, do you want to eat something right now?"

"Mn? Not necessary. For the time being it's better to get my clothes out."

"Good, Chifu-sama. We'll get the car ready as soon as possible."

"Okey."

After that Hasuki-san went to the room full of her personal clothes and there were some female servants who had selected some clothes for her. He then chose one of several clothes chosen by the waiter and immediately wore them in the dressing room.

When finished, he then came out with a casual dress that is suitable for casual occasions such as meeting friends and others. Hasuki-san then sits on the sofa and waits for her car to be ready in the living room.

He had imagined interesting things that would happen later when they shop together until he did not realize that a smile formed in his mouth.

"Iraya-kun .. Ririsaka-san ...," he muttered.

"It looks like you're really happy today, Chifu."

Suddenly there was a heavy male voice that dispelled Hasuki-san's delusion. He is the father of Hasuki-san—Hasuki Nakamura. The man then sat down next to Hasuki-san.

"Dad? Today, I want to go shopping with my friend. I'm waiting for the car to be ready for this moment."

"so. If you can tell, what's your friend's name?"

"Dad knows her, right? He is Satou Iraya and Ririsaka Herlin."

Upon hearing the name, Nakamura's expression turned stiff. But before long the stiff expression turned into a small, almost invisible smile. Hasuki-san who was confused by her father's behavior, then asked him.

"Is something wrong, Dad?"

"Chifu-sama, the car is ready."

Before Nakamura answered him, one of the servants interrupted him and told Hasuki-san that the car to be used was ready. Nakamura then stroked her sweet daughter's head and said something.

"Nothing, now go and have fun with your friend."

"All right, I'll go first, Dad."

"See you."

After Hasuki-san has left and is completely lost from her sight. Nakamura muttered and involuntarily let out a grin at the end.

"really. Have fun, Chifu. While you can still see your two friends."

**

Meanwhile, the two of us were waiting in front of the mall where we and Hasuki-san were going to meet. Still in uniform and Herlin also still wears her ponytail and glasses hairstyle.

"Are we meeting here?"

"It was supposed to be here, but he told me that after school we came straight here."

"It seems we came too soon."

"Looks."

Silence attacked the two of us while occasionally checking whether Hasuki-san had come or not. I then looked at Herlin, he was busy playing his smartphone. The children of today. If you have a smartphone, you will forget the world.

"Nee, Herlin …."

"What?"

"What are you actually doing Daritadi?"

"I'm on a sticker war with Michi-chan."

It doesn't matter! But he mentioned the name 'Michi-chan'. I'm trying to remember a girl named Michi-chan. If it's not wrong he has given us information about Mei-senpai's address.

"So you're really friends with him?"

Herlin remained silent. He also stops sending spam stickers to Michi-chan and then turns off his smartphone. And then after that, look at me.

"A-What's wrong?"

"Of course I'm friends with him. Don't equate me with you."

Jamb…

An imaginary arrow that had not appeared for a long time, suddenly pierced right into my heart. I guess what he wanted to say, it just insulted me. Fucking herlin. I clenched my hand and shook with anger.

"K-You …."

"Gee! That's it!"

"Mrs?"

Suddenly someone shouted at us both. He is the man we have been waiting for. Hasuki-san then approached us.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's worth you a long time, it turns out you came home first, huh?"

"Hn? Shouldn't it be like that?"

"Yes, since everyone has gathered let's buy the ingredients immediately."

We then entered the mall. But suddenly Hasuki-san asked a question that made my steps stop.

"Oh yeah, what are we gonna do?"

"Gil …!"

"You haven't thought about it?" ask Herlin.

I forgot to think about the most important thing. How to buy ingredients if we don't know what we're going to do. I then let the two of them think about it.

"A-Is there any advice?"

"What about you, Ririsaka-san?"

"I'm anything no problem, as long as it's not a hassle."

"Hmm ... anything, yes …."

Hasuki-san looked around to look for something she could reference. He then saw someone who was taking his dog for a walk and Hasuki-san came up with an idea.

"How about a puppy?!"

"A-Dog …?"

I then looked at Herlin and Herlin responded to Hasuki-san's suggestion.

"I don't mind."

"Okay, it's decided! We're gonna make a replica of a puppy."

We entered this time really into the mall. We went to an outlet that sold raw materials such as cardboard, glue, scissors, etc.

Hasuki-san took out a paint and brush that was later used as a dye for her puppy. While I was looking for something that could be used as another decoration. I buy an artificial eye for the dog later. Meanwhile Herlin suddenly approached me.

"Have you found the decoration?"

"I found this."

Criing…

He bought a small bell that could be used on his puppy's necklace later. Good Herlin! This time your choice really helped!

After getting all the materials we needed, we came out of the outlet.

"All have been purchased. So, is there anything you still want to do here?"

"Hm …. Let's see …."

Hasuki-san looked around and saw outlets filled with visitors. But his attention was stopped at a shirt outlet. He then pulled Herlin's hand and quickly headed there.

"Let's go shopping, Ririsaka-san!"

"Eh? No, I don't needuoo—!"

I was left behind by them then just waiting for them from inside the outlet who was picking clothes. From afar, I smiled slightly at their familiarity that I rarely saw. Herlin came here to help me get revenge on Hasuki-san. But now they look familiar.

Hasuki-san, who noticed that I was waiting outside, then asked me to come inside to assess which clothes were good for them. I went in there, a little embarrassing.

"Then, rate us honestly huh, Iraya-kun?!"

"Why should I try it?"

They both went into the dressing room and tried on the clothes. Although she continued to grumble, Herlin still tried clothes that she felt good. What the fuck, it turns out you're enjoying this too, right?

After a long while inside finally Herlin and Hasuki-san came out with the clothes they had previously chosen.

"How, Iraya-kun?"

"That looks a lot like you."

"Thank you, Iraya-kun. I'm glad to hear it."

How what? Whatever you wear, you will still look beautiful, Hasuki-san! Then I looked at Herlin. He chose a short-sleeved casual dress with a calm color. And a knee-length skirt that makes her look feminine. There is no other word than 'SIMPLE SUPER!". But ….

"Yes, that looks good" I said with a voice and a flat face.

"Why do I want to hit you so badly right now."

"All right! I will pay for the clothes Ririsaka-san wants to buy."

"Eh? No, it doesn't need—"

"It's okay, it's okay. This is my first time shopping with you, so just think of it as a gift, huh?"

"Ba-Good …."

Rich people are different! But it seems that Hasuki-san is still not satisfied with just shopping. He seemed to still want to go somewhere from his face thinking about something.

"Nee, I'm hungry now. Let's eat before we go home."

"I've eaten, so—"

"Let's eat."

Herlin stopped me from explaining that we had just eaten. But why would he still want to eat? And also Hasuki-san's face looks really happy.

In the end, we went to the restaurant to eat. The food we ordered was the same. This is the first time I've eaten a hamburger in less than two hours.

"Well! It's the first time I've ever eaten something like this."

"What has never been before?"

"Yes, our family chef always prepares food for me. So I never had a chance to eat food like this."

"Heh~"

Hasuki-san again ate the hamburger happily. Unknowingly it makes the food look really good. I then tried mine and it still tasted the same as a normal hamburger.

After our food ran out, suddenly Hasuki-san's smartphone rang. He saw the contact who called him and his face immediately looked unhappy. He then picked up the phone a little far away so I could not hear it clearly.

"… Well, I'll be home soon …."

Hasuki-san then returned to her seat. But this time his face looked different, his face looked more gloomy than usual. I also tried to ask her how she was.

"Hasuki-san, did something happen?"

"Nothing, really."

Silence momentarily made the atmosphere suddenly cold. Hasuki-san said something again.

"Nee, Iraya-kun, Ririsaka-san. I'm sorry I can't go home with you. My car's picking me up."

"Ahh, ms, alright."

Hasuki-san then stood up and immediately left this restaurant. But before he came out, he said something to us.

"Thank you for today, it was so much fun. See you at school, Iraya-kun, Ririsaka-san."

He waved his hand slowly which was greeted by the two of us and then left from here. I don't know why, but her smile was forced on her. And also his words sounded very sad and deep.

"Don't think too much."

"Eh? Herlin?"

"Whatever you were thinking earlier, you must be worried about him, right?"

"Yes, that's it."

"Don't worry, because if anything happens to him …."

Herlin looked at the shopping bag inside which was the shirt Hasuki-san had bought earlier.

"… I will definitely repay my bud."
