Editing Masou Gakuen HxH:Volume 1 Chapter 3 (section)

===Part 6===

Unexpectedly, even though he had spent a night where he couldn’t really sleep, sleepiness didn’t particularly attack him even in the afternoon class.

When he recalled the events yesterday night, he fell into a light self-hatred.

For some reason, he felt like he was bullying Chidorigafuchi.

‘Haa’, he released a deep sigh.

“When you sigh, happiness will escape together with it you know☆”

“Yurishia……”

“Hey Kizuna? Do you have time after this?”

‘After this? Aah, so the class today is over already.’

“Yeah, I don’t really have anything to do……”

Yurishia clapped her hands happily.

“That’s great―. Then, I wonder if you can accompany me for shopping? After that, how about having dinner together with me?”

“I’m happy you asked me, but my mood is a little……”

“Now, let’s go.”

Yurishia forcefully took Kizuna’s arm.

“Eh? Wa, wait.”

The corridor that was jammed with students going home became noisy from the two of them walking arms linking.

“Yu, Yurishia-san? Where are we going shopping?”

“Kyoto♪”

The application for going outside Ataraxia took some time, but one hour later they arrived at Kyoto float.

“Why in Kyoto float?”

“We are just taking a walk a little♪”

They walked through the streets while giving sidelong glances at the historical buildings reconstructed here. Compared to the original Kyoto, the size of this float was only its one-thirtieth. There they experienced the condensed sightseeing of the famous historic places.

The stage of Kiyomizu, hall of Sanju San’gen, Kinkaku temple, etc., all of those spots were in a range that they could walk around by foot.

“Ah, look Kizuna. What a lovely townscape!”

It was a street that made one mistake it for the Edo period. Yurishia’s feet stopped in front of a building that had several stores in it.

“Pretty…… hey, I wonder if this suits me?”

What Yurishia pointed at was a kimono of Nishijin brocade. It was a pink kimono and a golden belt with flower patterns drawn on it put on a pedestal.

Yurishia’s eyes were shining with expectation.

“Yes, I think it will suit you.”

“Then, I’ll buy it―”

‘Eh? Isn’t this really expensive?’

Kizuna confirmed the price and he felt astounded by the price that reached seven digits.

When Yurishia exited the store, she had already worn the kimono that she just bought. It also suited her blonde hair.

“Well then, where should we go next?”

“This is a rare chance, so how about to the place that Yurishia wants to go to.”

“Is it fine?”

Yurishia asked worriedly.

“Of course.”

Yurishia smiled pleasantly,

“Okinawa.”

She said.

“That’s not inside Kyoto float……”

After that they went to Okinawa float, and they ate sweets while going through international window shopping.

“Next I want to try seeing a large Buddha statue.”

They took a commemoration picture at the Kamakura Buddha statue in Kanagawa float.

“I want to try looking at the Megafloat’s ranch.”

Toward the Hokkaido float.

“This thing called takoyaki, it doesn’t look like octopus at all, so why is it called takoyaki?” <ref>Takoyaki means fried octopus.</ref>

Osaka float.

The distance between each place was not that far, but traveling around everywhere this much was quite difficult.

Even so, Yurishia was really active. While he was being led around, the hand of the clock had already reached eight o’clock.

“Not good, let’s have dinner soon. Western or Japanese, which one is good I wonder?”

“Hmmm…… that’s a little puzzling.”

“Oh, when you feel puzzled, you should do both☆”

Yurishia winked at him.

They went to a super high class traditional restaurant in Kyoto before moving to a first class hotel restaurant in Tokyo float.

When the time almost changed into a new day, they finally returned back to Ataraxia.

Both of them walked side-by-side through the road from the station to the dormitory.

It was a path where they could see both the night scenery of the city of Ataraxia and Megafloat Japan.

It was a very beautiful sight.

And then, most beautiful of all, was the starry sky that seemed as if it was going to rain down.

It was a night sky that they couldn’t see at the homeland Japan.

“Today was really fun♪ Thank you Kizuna.”

“I was the one that got treated for everything…… next time it will be my treat for you.”

“This is my thanks to you, so don’t mind it. I wonder if you are satisfied by the dinner?”

“Yeah, I never thought that we would really go for both. Both were luxurious that it made me nervous.”

Yurishia breathed out amusedly.

“I’m sorry if you didn’t enjoy it because you were nervous. For some reason, even though this should be my thanks to you, I also enjoyed it myself.”

“I had fun too. It feels like ten days is compressed into this normal after school though. Yurishia, you are really active aren’t you?”

“I guess so…… for some reason, since the battle on that unpopulated island, it seems that I changed a little.”

“Changed?”

“Yes. It’s mysterious isn’t it? Even though I have gone through life-and-death battles several times until now, but that was the first time that I thought I might really die.”

That might be the proof that that was just how strong Yurishia was he guessed.

“Since then, I become really greedy. I want to see the things I haven’t seen yet. I want to go to places that I haven’t gone to. I want to wear clothes I have never worn. I want to eat foods I’ve never eaten. Also…… I want to go on a date with a boy, something like that?”

After saying that, Yurishia stared at Kizuna.

“Kizuna, this is all thanks to you because you saved me you know?”

‘Because, I saved her?’

“Rather than calling that saving, it was more like just buying time. Rather the one who did the saving was Yurishia right? Cross’ firepower is just awesome. Just as expected from the ace of the American army.”

Kizuna laughed ‘ahaha’.

“But since then Kizuna is not energetic aren’t you?”

“Eh, no, that’s not……”

“Especially today, you are not energetic at all. Did something happen?”

Yurishia peered into Kizuna’s face.

“Tha…… that’s…… you really understand huh.”

“Fufu-“

‘Because, I was always looking at you after all’――she didn’t say that.

“Try to say it if you have something bothering you. I’ll give you some advice.”

Yurishia showed a bright smile like the sun.

As if being invited by that smile, Kizuna opened his mouth.

“Yurishia, is your relation with Chidorigafuchi good? I’m wondering, what kind of person that girl is?”

Immediately Yurishia’s face became sullen.

“Ee~!? You are not worrying about me? That’s rea―lly a let down.”

“No, sorry. But, it’s about the Heart Hybrid……”

Eh? Just why did he apologize?

“It can’t be helped then.”

Yurishia crossed her arms and moved her fingers antsily.

“Well, it doesn’t even seem like you like Aine or anything…… fine then, I’ll specially teach you. But, I too don’t really know that girl well you know?”

“But, you two are comrades in the same team Amaterasu right?”

“Because, we don’t really talk much. Even when we talk, she is always in that kind of manner right? She has a wicked tongue, she only talked about incomprehensible things, she doesn’t really talk about herself.”

“She didn’t talk about herself?”

“Yes. That’s why, I don’t even know what did Aine usually do to pass her time. I don’t even know about something like her hobby, her favorite thing, or even her family.”

“Then…… any person that seems close to her?”

Yurishia pondered a little, but she shook her head.

“No one comes to mind.”

There was no one close to her, he remembered Chidorigafuchi saying that to him.

That girl was popular among the male students but…… actually, she had no friends or anything?

“In the first place, where did that girl come from? Her appearance doesn’t look like a Japanese at all though.”

“I also don’t know that.”

“You don’t know?”

“I was also interested in that, so I tried asking around once. But, no one knew. Nobody in this academy knew about Aine’s past.”
