Chapter 2 Part 8
Sometime after Nozomu and Mars parted ways with Irisdina, they arrived at Ushitotei.
“What were you doing! Onii-chan !!”
Mars was preached by Ena at Ushitotei. Ena, who noticed Mars returning with a moody face, questioned Mars and Nozomu, and it was because he got angry at Tima.
“Why did Onīchan get mad at someone right away !!”
“………….Shut up! Why are you complaining! It has nothing to do with you !!”
“What are you talking about! What would you do if this caused trouble for Hannah-san again!”
“…………Let me see……”
The quarrel between the two is intensifying, and Nozomu was already out of the net.
“You don’t have to worry about it. It’s a daily occurrence for those two.”
“Hanna-san”
Hannah, the proprietress of Ushitotei, put a glass of milk and a light meal on the plate in front of Nozomu, and she said as if she didn’t mind the turmoil of the two.
“For those two, this kind of fight is like a skinship. Tomorrow they will be back to normal, so it’s useless to worry about it.”
Looking around, some of the customers in the store weren’t trying to stop the two fights, they were just smiling.
It seems to be the usual sight at this inn.
“Why does Onīchan always do useless things like that! Maybe Onīchan likes Tima-san !? Is it like how a kid does mean things to seek attention !!”
“Don’t judge other people like that! Don’t fabricate my emotions for your own convenience!”
The massive tongue fight that broke out in a small inn was gaining momentum, and Nozomu couldn’t do anything about it anymore.
The window glass of the inn shook at such a loud voice, and there were ripples in the milk of Nozomu’s cup. To be clear, it is so noisy that even if it is said that demons are fighting each other, it is convincing.
(But the customers aren’t moving at all ………… just how much)
Even in such a state, the appearance of the surrounding customers does not change. Seeing that the military police do not rush even with such a noise, it seems that even the military police are aware of the quarrel between brother and sister.
What makes it amazing is the local residents who can be normal in such a big turmoil, or the brother and sister who have made such a scene recognized as “normal” ….
Bakii! !! !! !!
Nozomu looked around and was stunned, a loud noise suddenly rang from the two fighting people.
(Wha, What is it !!)
When Nozomu hurriedly looked in the direction of the noise, Ena lifted the counter chair and slammed it on the floor.
“Wha, what are you doing suddenly !!”
“Whatever I say Onīchan won’t understand! If it like this then, I’ll make you understand by exercising my true strength !! Be prepared!”
Ena grabs the chair’s legs with her hands and holds it with a “seigan-no-kamae” (TL : posture in kendo).
But, that posture was so strange.
“Teyaa a a a a !”
Ena swings the chair down toward Mars’s head. Mars avoids the chair that was swung down in a hurry, probably because he was about to hit the chair on his head, his face is looking strange.
“Do, do you want to kill me !! If it was a little late, my head would be cracked !!”
When Nozomu saw Mars who had barely avoided it, his body seemed to be enhanced. Looks like, he even used physical strengthening.
(………… Wait a minute. How does Mars, who has strengthened his body, only able to barely avoid it?)
Nozomu feels strange, and when he looks at Ena, she seems to be enhanced her body. Looks like, she uses physical strengthening unknowingly.
(……… How? I heard that Ena-chan hasn’t had any combat training such as physical strengthening though?)
According to Hannah and her colleagues, Ena has never mastered combat techniques. Seeing her unconsciously strengthening her body despite that, she may be quite talented, just like Mars.
………… Rather, she is too unreserved. She shouldn’t hit her relatives with her enhanced physical strength.
(Although unconsciously, Mars would really die if he wasn’t good at dodging it…………)
“Wait a minute! Did you just telling me not to use violence while you use it yourself !!”
(Well … it’s a reasonable line for Mars who was about to be killed ………)
Mars is completely losing his nerve.
Ena is 14 years old and her height is by no means tall. However, her current spirit is completely in control of this place. At this rate, Mars could really be killed.
I thought it was bad, so I called out to appease Emma.
“W, well, Ena-chan. I think it’s really bad …”
“Don’t disturb Nozomu-san! This is the only way to rehabilitate Onīchan! Maybe he will be shocked and have a decent personality!”
“No no no! Before that, Mars’s head becomes different in another sense! Let’s calm down a little!”
When Nozomu looks at Mars as he soothes Ena, Mars shakes his head up and down violently. As expected, Mars probably realizes that the current state of Ena is bad.
“It’s no good! I’m sure I will regret not doing it right here !!”
(No no no! I’m sure you’ll regret it if you do something like that!!)
Ena is about to jump on Mars, and Nozomu tries to catch her and stop her from behind, but Nozomu is about to be shaken off by Ena’s strength as she strengthens her body.
(Wait, it’s powerful !!)
Nozomu naturally uses his physical strengthening, but probably because Ena’s physical strengthening is done unconsciously, there is no adjustment at all.
Mars was completely lost in fighting spirit and was cornered in the corner of the room.
Seen from the side, it is a view of a husband being violent to his wife and her daughter trying to stop it.
Needless to say, the violent husband is Ena and the wife is Mars. The daughter who is trying to stop them is Nozomu.
The customers watching the three started laughing out loud.
It seems that the cast is wrong, but it may be good as a comedy.
However, the people in question are very serious ……………….
At the end of the comedy, Mars was eventually hit by Ena’s chair. But, because Nozomu managed to resist, Mars did not die, he fainted and was dragged by Hannah to her room.
Mars purge…… No… rehabilitation?
Ena has returned to the customer service completely unperturbed.
(… Un, let’s not make Ena-chan angry ………)
At the sacrifice of his best friend, Nozomu imprinted one unforgettable rule in his heart.
……… However, if the cause is reformed, Mars, paying his own mistakes then………
The mess was finally over and Nozomu took a breather and sat down on his chair.
The turmoil of the past seemed to attract customers rather than keep them away, and the customer seats at the store were almost full, and only the table where Nozomu was sitting is vacant.
(The people living here are too energetic…)
When Nozomu was thinking about that, the door of the store opened and new customers came in.
“Ah, please come in. Welcome to Ushitotei!”
Emma welcomes new customers with a cheerful voice. It’s hard to believe all of her Qi’s power she used earlier.
(… Ena-chan is tough ………)
When Nozomu was half impressed, he saw a customer who came in, and Nozomu’s expression was petrified.
“Hey Ken, is this the store?”
“Yeah, it is. They serve pretty good meat dishes.”
It was his childhood friends Lisa and Ken who came in.
“I’m sorry, the seats are full now, is it okay if it’s a shared seat?”
“Is it okay? Lisa”
“It’s okay”
“Thank you very much. Then, please seat here.”
Ena said so and came with the two. Eventually, the two noticed Nozomu and screamed in surprise.
“Huh? Nozomu?”
“!!”
The moment when the eyes of the three crossed. Lisa’s expression became steep in an instant.
“………… Yaa”
Nozomu manages to squeeze out his voice, but his expression is awfully stiff.
“A, ano Nozomu-san, do you know them?”
“Y, yeah. We are childhood friends…”
“Is….. that so? Is it okay to share the table …?”
“Yeah … I’m okay …”
Ena hesitated in the gloomy atmosphere of the three childhood friends, but Nozomu agreed to share the table because there were no other seats.
“A, ano … are you, two customers, okay with it too?”
“I’m okay …”
“……………fine……”
Ken answered while watching the state of Lisa, and Lisa also agreed.

Nozomu’s POV
The three sit facing one table. The atmosphere is not good. Meanwhile, Nozomu remembered their past.
Before it became like this, the three of us often went out and talked about various things while going around various places.
About things at the school, about the family in our hometown, and about our dreams.
Lisa always wants to have an adventure. I should go with Lisa, and Ken can’t help it and said, “so should I come too?”
At that time, we didn’t have any doubts about being able to stay together, even if it was difficult.
However, we are no longer together. To be precise, I was the only one left out.
I still don’t understand why Lisa pushed me away.
Lisa is still showing me her stiff expression, her sun-like smile is no more, and only burning anger is left behind her eyes.
I can’t say anything when I see that face.
“So Nozomu is also in this store. Do you come often?”
Ken talks to me. The voice wasn’t strangely stiff, and I was honestly grateful to him for understanding me because I don’t know how to deal with Lisa.
I know that it has led to an escape, but I thought it would at least trigger some kind of conversation.
“Well, I’ve been coming lately. My friend’s parents are running this store, and the clerk was my friend’s sister.”
“Hee. By the way, I heard that the meat dishes here are good, but what do you think?”
I still remembered the rabbit steak that Hannah had treated me. The gravy that overflows with the browned meat. Certainly, that was good.
“That’s right. You can expect it.”
“Is that so! I’m glad. My friend introduced me to a delicious restaurant, so I thought I’d eat with Lisa and expect it.”
“……… Is that so … that’s good then…”
Ken’s words “together with Lisa” hurts my heart.
It’s been shown since Lisa and Ken started dating.
She walked with Ken.
She smiled next to Ken.
And she fought back to back with Ken.
I found that she had a lot of faith in Ken, and that made me even more miserable.
……….Then I ran away, for training, and to my former dream that I couldn’t fulfill anymore.
Close my eyes, try to imagine that important person.
…… That person who made me realize.
She took her life and made me realize that “you are running away.”
She told me … “It’s okay if you don’t forget that you’re running away.”
When I heard that, I felt that I was able to accept my weak self. I haven’t been able to move forward yet. However, I decided to face the fact that I was running away.
………… So I’ll try to ask her again. “Why ………”
“Hey Lisa. Why did I get dumped by you?”
“!!!!!!”
Lisa opens her eyes wide and she immediately cast her eyes down. Her body trembles and her emotions are uncontrollable.
“Nozomu, that is ………”
Ken tries to stop me, but I ignore his voice. The fact that I’m running away also includes the reason why I was dumped.
In order to face the fact that I was running away, I had to ask Lisa why.
Otherwise, I might not be able to move forward when I decide to do so.
“Hey, why am I…..
” … Don’t screw with me.”
“Eh”
“Don’t screw with me !!!!!!”
She yelled at me, hit the table, kicked the chair, and stood up.
“Now! Why now! Don’t screw with me !!!”
I can’t say anything to her voice. Her voice was full of hatred, full of anger, and … above all, it was sorrowful like tearing her own heart.
***
Midnight at Arcazam Central Park. A shadow is illuminated and projected by the moonlight in the darkness.
“Just a little more”
It was an old gentleman that was projected. He is dressed in black butler clothes and is playing with something with his hands wrapped in white gloves.
“Even though the Lord says he’s not interested, he always tells me to take it home …”
While feeling a contradiction in the life of his own Lord, he turned his eyes to a corner of the city and started walking while muttering without changing his expression.
“… I don’t like violent behavior, it depends on the other party. If things are done in a peaceful manner … “
A city where everything was swallowed by darkness and surrounded by silence. While no one was moving, only the gear of fate was slowly starting to move ………….
