Chapter 191 – The Scout (2)
One.
“See you here again?”
I was in front of the counter holding a drink and thinking about how to apologize when I heard an alluring voice from behind that I had recently heard.
When I reflexively turned my head, Kiri Blossom, whom I had met in ‘Encounter’, was waving her hand.
“Hi, nice to meet you Pastor. Did you have a good time with Scar Lait?”
“Uh? Ah, yes… What.”
Kiri Blossom was an A-Class Awakener, but she was a more famous A-Class Awakener than most S-Class Awakeners.
Kiri Blossom is the most beautiful person in the Blossom family, famous for her beauty, and Kiri Blossom is the one who confidently shines on the biggest electronic display board when entering Hypocity.
When someone so famous pretended to know like this, it was inevitable that her body would stiffen and feel awkward for no reason.
No, even when I was in the academy, a kid I had never met said why did he pretend to know me like this from the other day?
Now I was busy thinking about how to apologize to Aimee.
That’s why I thanked her for greeting me, but she had to excuse herself and leave her place.
She must have been…
“Key, Kiri Blossom? Are you really Kiri Blossom?”
“Wow! It’s Kiri Blossom!”
“How can the real thing be prettier than the picture? Does that make sense?”
“By the way, who is that man next to you?”
With the sound of the shutters clicking, a large number of people inside and outside the cafe gathered.
A celebrity like Kiri Blossom is always recognized by people everywhere, and this cafe was no exception.
In an instant, her crowd came out and surrounded her Kiri Blossom, and her gaze of admiration and fascination turned to her and quickly turned to me and her gaze of curiosity, envy, and jealousy. Was
It was impossible for her to get out on foot, and it was clear that trying to get out using the rabbit hole would only cause a commotion because she would have to go to Aimee’s side inside the cafe.
Besides, to Kiri Blossom in front of so many people, ‘I’m sorry I’m busy. Let’s talk about it next time.” That’s as extreme as it gets.
It was not at all desirable for rumors to spread about me in this way.
Kiri Blossom has been a world-famous world star, a celebrity of celebrity who has not been missed since her debut as an awakened person who was voted No.
A two-shot with such a ridiculous woman? 100% more people will try to find out who I am, and very annoying things will happen.
So, in this situation, it is impossible to shout ‘Fuck!’ In Kiri Blossom’s face.
Then all I can do is finish her conversation with Kiri Blossom and send her away.
Okay, no matter what they ask, let’s cut them off as short as possible so that they lose interest in me.
“By the way, Pastor, where did you hear that you left the liars trap?”
“Uh? How?”
However, the question that came out of Kiri Blossom’s mouth was one that could not be cut off with a single answer.
When I asked back in bewilderment, Kiri Blossom covered her mouth with her hand, giggled, and responded by gently pushing my shoulder with her free hand.
“How is it? I can’t do that if you ask me. Just think that there is a way.”
What kind of bullshit is that I had just told the guild leader that I had resigned.
The guild manager’s room in Liar’s Trap was a place that boasted an impenetrable level of security comparable to the search captain’s office where I was.
A girl who doesn’t know anything knows the story that only me and the two guild leaders talked about there? It’s not an issue that can be easily overlooked…
Wait, do I really need to take this seriously? I left liars trap. Then you don’t have to worry about it and consume your mental energy, right?
She closed her mouth for a moment and thought about the question she suddenly had, and then Kiri Blossom kept her eyes on me and began to reason on her own.
“You left the world’s best guild to find something more valuable than being there, and since there’s no better place in the world than the Liar’s Trap, you’re thinking of starting your own business, right?”
“Eh? How?”
But strangely, Kiri Blossom’s reasoning was all correct.
As if someone were stalking me, I had no choice but to repeat that I was stupidly right as before because every word I spit was the right answer.
“You can ask what kind of business it is… No, no. Sorry Paster. I haven’t even started yet, so it’s a little bit strange to ask such a thing, right?”
“Uh? No, that’s what…”
“My mistake. Sorry. That… I was just curious about what Pastor was going to do, so my mouth moved involuntarily. By the way, Pastor, if you’re new to work, there must be a lot of difficulties.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Kiri Blossom’s way of speaking was kind and sympathetic to me, something I’ve never experienced before, and who I’ve never seen before.
As the conversation continued, for some reason, I began to feel at ease, and I was listening to Kiri Blossom carefully, even agreeing with her, completely forgetting the thought of cutting it off with a quick answer.
“So… I’m trying to find someone to work with, but that’s the hardest thing.”
In the friendly aura that Kiri Blossom exudes, I unknowingly let out the heaviest worries about my current career path.
…Wait a minute, why am I even talking nonsense like this?
Then, just as I was about to ask this question, Kiri Blossom looked at me with her dark pink eyes full of curiosity and interest and pointed at herself with her finger.
“You’re saving people? Then what about me?”
What nonsense is that how do I hire you dude
Kiri Blossom’s words were such absurd bullshit that the words automatically hit her throat.
Kiri Blossom’s nonsense instantly opened her mind, which had been marinated in a friendly atmosphere, and at the same time, a familiar voice came from behind.
“Sat… No Pasta! You agreed to work with me!”
With a cry of the size she had never heard before, Aime sprang from behind her, forcibly crossing her arms and standing next to me.
“Eme?”
“Faster, if you went to get a drink, I’ll just bring a drink. What else are you flirting with other girls…”
Aime, who was about to shower me with scolding, checked her face on Kiri Blossom and stopped her mouth as if she was speechless.
“······Hee.”
Then, with an incomprehensible sound, he untied his arms from me and strode towards Kiri Blossom.
Adult Ame, who exudes decadent beauty that makes her legs loosen just by standing, and Kiri Blossom, who has a lithe charm that makes her heart flutter just by standing.
The moment the two faced each other, I knew instinctively.
If you just leave it as it is, it will be really fucking annoying.
I could be sure that whatever happened, it would do nothing but harm to me.
To that extent, the atmosphere the two of them were exuding right now and the pressure created by the atmosphere colliding with it was extraordinary.
I don’t know for what purpose Kiri Blossom has been pretending to know me and pretending to be friendly with me since the last time, but rather than questioning that, I thought it would be better to separate the two of them right away and then leave.
So I put the tray on the counter and went over to them and took Emme’s hand.
“Emme, is it true that you are working with me? Are you working? Did you hear Kiri Blossom? Since I saved someone, I’ll pretend I didn’t say anything you just said. Thanks for the joke!”
And after quickly sorting out the relationship and the situation, without even listening to Kiri Blossom’s answer, he and Aime escaped down the rabbit hole.
Dismissed!
As white sparks ran through her body, her vision changed in an instant.
Once I used the rabbit hole thinking I was going somewhere, I ended up in a really odd, deserted back alley.
Still, that time when I was trying to relax and let out a sigh of relief that the catastrophe had been prevented before it happened.
“Whoa…”
“Pastor, no, it’s a rabbit. What’s your relationship with Kiri Blossom? What kind of relationship are you talking about because we work together?”
The thing that I thought would be fucked up when I woke up exploded through Eme’s mouth.
“Ah, that… That’s it…”
What do you answer? Would you mind just answering honestly? To be honest, Kiri Blossom and I are not related, and she only met once at a bar and once at a cafe counter this time. But will you believe it right away? Aime is a person who can’t stand doubts, so she will have to see the end. Then she will definitely be bothered. But if she answers that she’s not really related, then that’s a problem… Really what? No, fuck Kiri Blossom, the golden horse was the same last time, and this time, why can’t I giggle like this? Oh yes, there was
Kiri Blossom, who quickly disguised her troubles as she rolled her head with her super-speed, and her resentment, suddenly came up with a question that would make Aimee’s doubts disappear completely.
“Emme, more than that, will you really work with me? I-I won’t be able to pay you properly until I get a job, and even if I get a job, I won’t be able to pay you more than I did when I was in the liars trap.”
“Uh, huh? But it’s a rabbit… Kiri Blossom is…”
“If Aimee would work with me despite all those problems, I would be very happy.”
“That, is it? No better? But Kiri…”
“So, honestly! With Eme, you don’t need to find anyone else! Yes! Eme will do it alone! Then it will be just the two of us on staff, right?”
“Two, just the two of us? Just the two of us… Just the two of us with the rabbit…”
Done.
“Of course, if Aimee is having a hard time, we’ll have no choice but to hire more people…”
“No! Rabbit, don’t you know me? I am the one who can lightly produce the efficiency of thousands of people alone. Surely you are not ignoring my ability?”
“Is that so? I was just saying it out of politeness! So Ame, shall we talk about business seriously now? A business for two.”
“Yeah, yes! OK!”
That’s how I was able to erase Kiri Blossom from Aimee’s mind as planned…
“When that’s all over, tell me Kiri Blossom and what kind of sign it is.”
Fuck.
