Hayase Yuuka EP.36
"What is it this time?"
After being knocked out by the fly station again, I, Takanashi Sora, found myself in...
The Abydos Desert?
For some reason, I was standing in the Abydos Desert.
"...Is this a dream?"
It hasn't been long since I left Abydos, but I was already missing it?
"It's not a dream."
"....You again?"
Noticing her only after she appeared, she was standing next to me, looking at me.
"And what do you mean it's not a dream?"
'If this isn't a dream, then what is it...?'
"This is not a dream."
"This is another possibility, another story of the future."
"....What?"
"You'll find out soon. Look over there."
"Huh? What's over the—"
"....Uh...?"
In the direction, she pointed,
There I was, lying cold
a bullet through my head.
"Ugh...!"
My head hurts. It hurts like crazy.
My vision is blurry. I can't see clearly.
"Oh, Sora! Are you okay?!"
"That voice... Sensei?"
"Yeah, it's Sensei! Are you alright?"
I feel someone approaching. It must be Sensei.
As soon as I felt the presence, I grabbed onto Sensei.
I felt like I would die from dizziness if I didn't hold onto something.
"Hiss...Phew...."
After taking a deep breath while holding onto Sensei, I felt a little better.
As my vision cleared up a bit, I looked around.
"....It's small."
It's definitely inside a building...
"And it's dirty...."
"Small and dirty!"
"...Huh?"
A familiar voice.
I turned my head, wondering if it was someone I knew.
"This is pretty clean for here!"
I saw a child speaking with both arms raised.
"S-Still, I'm glad you woke up! My arm was getting numb...."
"That's your own fault, sis... Well, I'm still glad though."
"When you threw the fly station and it hit her on the head, I thought I'd become a murder suspect."
"I'll apologize on her behalf."
"Hmph. You too, Midori, when I said, 'I think it hit a passing student!' you asked, 'Then is the fly station okay?!'"
"T-That's because it's the first item on our Game Development Club's inventory... it was subconscious...."
"....Huh?"
"Um... Sensei will apologize too. I should have protected you, even if it meant taking the hit myself."
"....Uh,"
"So, what's going on here...?"
'I can't follow this conversation....'
*
Once the pain subsided a bit, I could listen to Sensei's explanation.
Right after I got hit by the fly station,
Sensei scolded Momoi and Midori from the Game Development Club.
It would have been different if Sensei had been hit.
But I, who don't even have a Halo, got hit,
And if things had gone wrong, it could have resulted in something serious like a concussion.
'Ah, so that's why they were holding their hands up....'
"...Then, who is that over there...?"
I asked, looking at Yuuka, who was standing in the corner.
'Why is she here....'
"My name is Yuuka. Hayase Yuuka."
Yuuka then patted my head and apologized.
"I'm sorry. I heard from Sensei about Momoi, but he said you're weak? Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
"Ah... Yes...."
"That's a relief. But just in case, you should get a check-up. Go with Sensei in a little while. I've already told them, so you can get checked right away."
"Th-Thank you...."
'Is she really the main love interest....'
Her handling of the situation is impressive.
"And Momoi?"
1
"Ugh!"
"I'll say it again, if you don't win a prize at the Millennium Prize with one student, the club will be shut down."
"Sensei, it's a rare chance to see you, but you're only showing a cold side, it's embarrassing."
"Well then, let's meet again in a softer atmosphere next time."
With those words, Yuuka left the Game Development Club room.
"Ah, wait a moment, Yuuka."
"Yes? What is it?"
"I'm sorry, but can I ask you a favor?"
*
"I feel a bit sorry... You must be busy with Seminar work...."
"It's fine. According to my schedule, I still have some time."
Just a little while ago,
"Could you take care of Sora?"
Sensei had entrusted me to Yuuka in order to go to the ruins with the Game Development Club.
For me, it wasn't bad at all.
Yuuka would probably know more about this place than Sensei.
And since Yuuka agreed, we set off to get the check-up she had mentioned.
"Come to think of it, I didn't catch your name. You're not a student here, are you? Are you planning to enroll in Millennium?"
"Ah, no... I'm currently attending Abydos, so enrollment..."
"Huh? Abydos?"
I took out my student ID and handed it to her.
This would be faster than explaining.
Upon seeing my student ID, Yuuka muttered in shock.
"Eh? You're... the same age as me...? But you look like you're in middle school... no, elementary school...."
'....That reaction hurts a little....'
Do I really look that young...?
