Chapter 49: A short play
Night.
No month.
Only the shining stars shone in the sky, as if mocking mortals struggling in the billowing red dust.
Kazama reclined comfortably in his chair and looked at the starry sky with a slight distraction.
"You like, you like the starry sky."
A slightly magnetic voice came from the side.
Kazama came back to his senses, smiled slightly, and turned his head away.
There, like himself, a young man in a black deacon robe was lying on his back, looking at him with interest.
"I like it very much...... Because the starry sky, like a huge stage, can stage any story you want to see. ”
The surrounding scenery quickly retreated, and the body followed the chair under him in the night, but in Kazama's eyes, only a brilliant star remained.
"The stage? Are you still satisfied with today's starry stage? ”
The young man in the black deacon's uniform repeated thoughtfully, and then suddenly let out a chuckle.
"Uh......"
Kazama, who was originally calm, had a touch of embarrassment on his face, and subconsciously reached out and touched his nose.
"I still have to apologize to you for today's incident. You have suffered such a great loss...... Not only will the auction amount be fully refunded, but there will be a lot of trouble for a dinner......"
Kazama sat up with a wry smile, glanced at his brand-new black tuxedo, and looked at the other with an apologetic expression.
"Besides, I want you to spend money to buy me a dress......
"Don't worry about it, it's just that the head of the regiment hasn't played for a long time, just find a reason to be happy. It's you, you can have a stage no less than just now, you have to seize the opportunity. ”
The boy sat up as well, and the chair of flowing water beneath him flowed rapidly, readjusting to a comfortable chair with the position and curve of his back.
Then, the conversation changed.
"To be honest, I'm interested in you."
Belch...... I was told by a man that I was very interested or something, and I wasn't happy at all.
“…… I mean, it's been a long time since I've seen Princess Qianqian use 'silver dust' again for whom. ”
As if seeing Kazama's eyes widen because he misunderstood himself, the young man on the side hurriedly explained.
“……”
Actually, it's the first time I've seen it, like that...... I always thought that the girl in the aqua green dress only had a gentle and shy side......
"Anyway, why are you auctioning off new students? Isn't that ......?"
Actually, Kazama wanted to say something like "Is it a human rights violation, or a crime?" or something like that, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back very wisely.
"This is also a rule that the stewards of the Garden of Eden acquiesce into."
As if he had seen through Kazama's thoughts, the corners of the boy's mouth hooked up a smile and patiently explained.
"As the atrium civilization gradually regains its former prosperity, from physical needs to psychological needs, more and more young people can rely on intelligent facilities to solve them, so it also leads to their addiction to personal space, and the intersection between people is becoming more and more thin."
As if to prove that what he said was true, the young man's index finger moved imperceptibly.
In an instant, a blazing white light suddenly appeared in front of Kazama Yangyu's eyes, stabbing him to close his eyes quickly.
Then, when the retina finally adjusts to the heat, Kazama is surprised to find himself sitting on a beach. The sun shines straight overhead, and countless beautiful women and handsome guys in swimsuits are enjoying the beach comfortably in the afternoon. The chair behind him has long been turned into a beach chair, so that you can better enjoy the sunbathing. What's even more amazing is that the tuxedo that he was wearing just now has turned into a Hawaiian-style men's swimsuit.
"Uh......"
"Don't worry, it's just a phantom."
The boy smiled and closed his eyes in enjoyment, as if he was really enjoying a rare sunbath.
"So, because of this, in the end, more and more young people who stay at home appear, oh, by the way, according to your world, it's called otaku, right?"
The corners of Kazama's mouth twitched, isn't this what you're talking about......
Although otaku is not a derogatory term in the strict sense, it is inexplicably ironic to say it from the mouth of a guy who is full of cash no matter how you look at it.
"The emergence of otaku has not only seriously reduced the birth rate of the population, but even the military, scientific research, medical care, and other necessary institutions with a high demand for talents have fallen into a talent crisis. So Eden, as an educational institution, had to introduce a new school rule. ”
"New school rules?"
Do you still want to force students to participate in club activities, and if you can't get these points, you won't be able to grab a national scholarship...... Kazama pouted.
"Yes, Eden students must have served as the head of the club for at least one year or the deputy head of the club for at least two years to graduate."
…… It seems that he still underestimated the extent of the madness of the educators in this world......
"Then it would be nice for everyone to form their own club."
Kazama suddenly remembered the admission letter that was torn open by himself, and then, he smiled happily, fortunately, he came here to save the world by himself, not to get his graduation certificate.
"Or ...... Is there a limit to the number of people? ”
"Yes, there must be more than ten people, and moreover, there must be more than two ...... of the opposite sex"
Is...... The humanized system ...... the truth that "men and women are matched and they don't get tired of work" was originally passed down from this world?
"Once the number or gender ratio is not qualified, the association will be forcibly dissolved, and the term of office of the original head and deputy head will be automatically invalidated."
This is, forced cash charge?! No wonder those men desperately snatched Lori...... Feng Yangyu suddenly began to sympathize with the bastards who threw a lot of money at him just now, it turned out that it was all tears......
"So, the new students have become a sought-after resource for various clubs, so much so that in the end it has become an auction?"
There was no answer, only Kazama nodded thoughtfully and sighed slightly.
Blindly pursuing the height of civilization, but as a result, losing what it was supposed to have, and in the end, having to use this almost absurd way to correct, I don't know, those ancestors who have worked hard for the progress of civilization will feel when they see it......
Kazama thought wildly, letting the sunlight fade away and turn into a bright starry sky again.
Then, the starry sky gradually brightened and faded in a gorgeous light.
"We're here."
In my ears, I heard the slightly magnetic voice of the teenager.
Also, the girl's deliberately elongated greeting.
"Su-Yu-"
Kazama came back to his senses and subconsciously looked in the direction of the boy.
There, I don't know when there was a girl in a maid outfit, with neat short hair and a pure face, she felt like a big sister next door. It's just that the ears that were supposed to be exposed on both sides of the head unexpectedly turned into two fluffy beast ears standing above the head, and what is even more strange is that one of the ears, although covered by long fluff, can still be found through the light, and a small piece is missing, which makes people feel pity.
It's just that now, this big sister next door, who should be pitied, suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed the poor ear of the young man called "Su Yu".
"Say it! Where did you fool around again? Yiyi is going to have a dinner party, and you can't even find a figure! ”
The beast-eared girl questioned as she pulled him off her chair with a bared tooth grin.
"Hey, wait, wait, Yaoyao! Let it go! ”
Su Yu changed his chic and calm attitude when he talked to Kazama Yangyu just now, and while tilting his head, he hurriedly begged for mercy.
"I'm going to buy clothes with him!"
The hand pointed straight at the innocent Kazama Hiroha.
I touched my nose in embarrassment, although I didn't understand what was going on, but let's talk about it, it was indeed the truth......
Kazama grinned, smiled at the girl who was looking at her suspiciously, and then jumped lightly from the two-chair flying machine.
"Whoosh-"
A sharp sound of breaking the air sounded instantly, and after losing pressure, the aircraft quickly rushed out towards the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a star and disappeared into the starry sky.
Then, as if all light had been lost, the heavens and the earth dimmed without warning.
There was only one light, a light that pierced through the heavens and the earth, falling from the sky and smashing the girl who was already squatting on the ground and began to draw circles.
"Original...... Originally...... You've got a crush on someone else...... You've never accompanied me to buy clothes, don't you love me anymore? ”
The air suddenly fell silent, and only the sound of clear footsteps sounded slowly.
A figure calmly stepped out of the darkness and stood quietly beside the girl.
"Fool, how could I not love you, in this world, except for my father and mother, except for His Majesty the King, except for Princess Yiyi, except for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, except for His Royal Highness the Second Prince, except for ......"
"Enough!"
"I love you the most."
The gentle words were like a stream of spring water, and a basin was buckled on Kazama's head.
Goosebumps, suddenly, fell to the ground.
"Then will you accompany me to buy clothes in the future?"
The girl raised her head, and her eyes were full of tears, which made people feel pity.
"Uh......"
A hint of struggle flashed in the young man's eyes.
Then, gritted his teeth.
"Yes!"
"Come back at night and kneel the ant~ Don't crush it to death, and don't let it run away~"
The girl suddenly got up and bounced into the darkness, the corners of her mouth curling imperceptibly.
"Who told you to try to lie to me again, huh!"
In the darkness, only the lonely back of the young man stood quietly in the pillar of light, gradually petrified.
"Hey, are you alright......"
Kazama gently patted Su Yu's shoulder, and a layer of stone powder fell silently and drifted away with the wind.
The light returned to normal, and Su Yu turned his head with a faint calmness on his face.
"Let's go! Let's go to dinner first. ”
"Uh......"
Kazama stretched out his hand in amazement, paused, and then followed briskly.
"That...... Can ants really kneel? ”
"Boom!"
"Why are you hitting me!"
……
"Uh...... All right...... I don't ask......"
