Arifureta After III Valentine Day Planning ②
.
AN: It has been a long time.
And yet, this chapter’s topic is two days late, and it’s completed with quick pace. I’m really sorry but please enjoy-.
Inside a dimly lit room, there were vague silhouettes of people forming from the darkness.
The one who was putting both elbows on the table and taking a pose with two hands joined to hide the mouth――the so called Gendo○ pose was,
「……Ladies, thank you for coming.」
「Say, Yue. What character you’re acting out? Also, why is the curtain closed?」
Yes, it was Yue-sama. It was Yue-sama with a grave atmosphere for some reason.
Kaori let out a tsukkomi and a question without reading the mood. Yue-sama whose mood was harmed launched a fist of wind. Dodged!
「I can’t really see with the room this dark, and it’s already evening so turn on the light.」
When the switch was pushed *click* like it was nothing, finally everyone who were gathered at the dining table――or rather, the people kidnapped by Yue came into view.
「Say, Yue. I and Remia still hath work remaining though……or rather, I was in the middle of inside a toilet. Art not this too forceful?」
「There was only document sorting left but……is this an emergency situation?」
Tio and Remia were working a job related with clothing and attire, but Yue who popped out when they were in the middle of working took them away with a pop too.
Especially Tio was in the middle of relieving herself so her lower body was in an awful state……of course, she was panting ‘haa haa’.
Also, the toile naturally was becoming a room that couldn’t be entered. It was the toilet of a venue where things like fashion show and the like were held. Ordinary people were also using it, so sooner or later the toilet would be opened up but, over there they would only find a piece of panties.
It was a mystery.
「Say~, I was also working though……I want to return to school……」
Similarly, Aiko was smiling wryly. She was in the middle of receiving the vice principal’s nagging preaching. She was teleported the moment he looked back, so it would be scary for her after this. No matter how he saw it, it looked like she ran away the moment he turned around because she hated his preaching.
But, Yue-sama only shortly said to those working adults.
「……I and work, which one is more important!」
Tio and others together let out exasperated voice 「Ee~~」. ‘What a really troublesome attention seeker…..’ they thought.
「Yes yes, Yue-san is more important, so let’s talk about what your business is.」
Yue, you, since coming to earth aren’t you gradually regressing mentally?]
「Ah, that, I also thought that a bit.」
Shia soothed her down, while Shizuku and Liliana were looking at her as though they were facing a pain in the ass. Yue averted her eyes, perhaps she was slightly aware of it herself. She coughed once and then straightened up herself.
「……Ladies, next week it will finally come. This year’s Valentine Day.」
Yue took the Gendo○ pose once more and started talking while her expression was turning grave.
「……Do you all remember? Of the defeat last year.」
「Yue, is your head fine? I don’t know what you mean――ah, dangerous! Geez-, don’t attack me every single time!」
Yue didn’t even give a glance at Kaori who dodged the wind fist by a hair’s breadth and continued her speech.
「……Yes, that defeat. Hajime who was asked by Ryutaro, whose chocolate he want the most, answered instantly! That it’s Myuu!」
There, Shai and others raised their voice 「Aa~」.
Certainly there was something like that at the Valentine last year. Yue who was convinced without any basis that ‘It’s impossible that the chocolate Hajime want the most isn’t mine!’ crumbled at that time on all four inside the class when Hajime gave his answer without any hesitation.
After that, it went without saying that a mini war occurred with Kaori who was grandly provoking Yue 「Heey, right now, how are you feeling♪」 behind the gym. At the end both sides harmoniously entered double KO with cross counter.
By the way, last year it was their last Valentine Day at high school, so the classmates including Lily were university students right now. And so, Myuu who was a kindergartener was also already a first year elementary school student.
In other words,
「……There is a risk that Myuu has also powered up.」
In the end, for the chocolate itself, Myuu’s quarter choco cake was number one.
Her pride as the first wife wouldn’t allow for the first rank of Hajime both in expectation and taste to be stolen two years in a row! It seemed to be something like that.
「I think Yue who is trying to seriously win against an elementary school student in a sense is already los――wait, I told you already that’s dangerous! Stop firing them in barrage like that!」
The wind fists that came flying like machine gun was avoided with godspeed while generating afterimages like Matri○ agent. Kaori was complaining, however, Yue didn’t even turn her gaze at her.
Anyway, it seemed Yue wanted to win against Myuu at this year’s Valentine Day.
「And, why art thou gathered us too for a meeting? Yue want to be number one correct?」
「……Honestly, I can’t see any chance of victory!」
The destructive power of Myuu who gave her all to make everyone happy whether it was birthday, or Christmas, or other events rivaled or even surpassed the age of god magic.
The purity that the dirty adult didn’t have pierced straight into Hajime’s papa heart! Like a pile bunker!
And so, it seemed Yue wanted to work out idea together with the wive~s in order to liven up this year’s Valentine Day too.
「……Also, Myuu’s chocolate was really delicious. Her cherry choco for personal use was also extremely delightful. And yet, my choco is completely normal……the sense of defeat is also severe in that sense too. This year I want to make Myuu to be the one dancing in wild joy instead.」
It seemed she wanted to win against Myuu in that kind of meaning too.
Certainly, the chocolates that were modeled after every single one of the Onee-chans had the shape and quality that were completely unthinkable coming from a kindergartener, so Shia and others were dancing in wild joy receiving the choco that was filled with heart.
Just as Yue said, it wasn’t only about Hajime, it could be said that Myuu was the sole winner even against them.
「……What about everyone? Are you okay with Myuu being the sole winner this year too?」
Yue sighed ‘fuh’ while asking with a provoking smile. Kaori and others looked at each other’s face.
A beat later, everyone’s face was starting to be filled with motivation. ‘Preparing a chocolate that would secure Hajime’s number one and made Myuu danced in wild joy at the same time! Ain’t that interesting!’ They thought.
But, there, a voice that dashed cold water to the heating up mood was……
「He, hey. I understand the flow of the talk but……why am I also here?」
Actually, there was one other person here. A girl who wasn’t one of the wive~s. Yes, she was kidnapped by adult mode Yue-sama in princess carry from the vocational school that she enrolled at in order to obtain a chef license, which caused the classroom to be in commotion. She was wondering just what kind of face should she make tomorrow……the one who was at her wits’ end like that was――Sonobe Yuuka.
Yue-sama’s eyes pierced into Yuuka who was bewildered and getting headache like that.
「……Yuuka is a person requiring special attention.」
「Why!?」
「……Dance like a butterfly, and sting like a bee.」
「We’re talking about Valentine right!? Right now you’re talking about Valentine right!?」
Yuuka made a tsukkomi asking just what in the world with this. But Kaori went 「Aa~」 and made an understanding face.
「That’s right isn’t it. Yuuka-chan, last year you were actually the one whose chocolate got eaten by Hajime-kun first wasn’t it?」
「!? Tha, that was just me asking him to sample the new product of the restaurant by chance……」
Her speech was faltering. Her gaze was swimming around like migratory fish without stopping.
「Now that you mention it, recently Hajime-san often go to Yuuka-san’s restaurant.」
「Sonobe-san’s restaurant is delicious after all.」
「It looks like Hajime is especially pleased with the coffee though……」
Inevitably,
「……The possibility of Yuuka who met with Hajime with nobody else present quite frequently coming with a surprise attack this year too is big.」
「Can you stop calling it a surprise attack!? It wasn’t like I was aiming for it! Also, Otou-san and Okaa-san were also there! So we weren’t alone!」
「Yuuka, still have popularity among the palace’s servants or knights I think……your girl power is extremely high……」
「Lily!? Why did you say that now!?」
Her desperate excuse ended in vain. For the wive~s it became settled that Yuuka was an opponent that they couldn’t let their guard down against.
Also, Yuuka’s popularity in Heiligh Kingdom was a fact. After the invasion of the demon race to the kingdom and the departure of Hajime’s party and Kouki’s party to the sea of trees, to be frank it was Yuuka who became the center of the classmates and ran around making every effort.
The security of the royal capital that was in the middle of restoration was enormously hard and busy, in addition the knights and soldiers also lost a lot of their colleagues and their wounds weren’t healed. At that kind of time, the one who took the initiative to help them was also Yuuka.
On top of that, she also became an advisor of the new pope and even encouraged the citizens by performing street performance like juggling and the like.
She never make a single reluctant face, she also didn’t act high and mighty even while she had the status as an apostle of god publicly, on the other hand, she had a candid personality that didn’t show any of currying favor with anyone.
And yet she was good at cooking, treated not only the classmates but also the knights in order to cheer them up, and she was also good at sewing so she remodeled her clothing by herself, and that fashion slightly became a fad……
And so, in reality, at that time the knights, soldiers, and then the servants endlessly confessed to her.
Kaori stared at Yuuka fixedly.
「Hey, Yuuka-chan.」
「Wha, what」
「Actually, this year too perhaps I will secretly make him eat it again~, are you perhaps thinking something like that?」
Yuuka quickly averted her gaze. Yuuka-chan was a honest person.
「So it’s the correct action to apprehend her. As expected Yue! Good job!」
「……Stop that, you’re making me embarrassed like that.」
*Clap* Yue and Kaori high-fived. They were really in harmony at this kind of time.
「……Now then, because of that, let’s talk of idea with each other.」
Everyone made a pondering face at Yue’s order.
「……By the way, a method unrelated with chocolate like Tio and Remia last year is rejected.」
「!?」
Remia opened her eyes wide. A black history that she didn’t want to remember was showing up underneath her heart. ‘You call? I don’t call!’
「Remia-san……if I’m not wrong, you wore sailor uniform……」
「Please stop! Something was wrong with me at that time! Just like Tio-san!」
「Remia!?」
When Aiko recalled Remia’s black history that she heard afterwards and spoke it, Remia covered her ears and went ‘no no’ while yelling 「I don’t want to hearrrr!」
