Seirei Tsukai to Shinjuu Tsukai no Shounen Volume 2 Chapter 25

1 hour after Akito had fulfilled his aim.

Akito who is ignoring Yuito who is fainted because of his son's full power punch, and had his weapon adjusted after being told "Although that's a prototype, but it's usable so I will give it a final adjustment." by Lilia, arrived in the dining room together with Yuuka.

Because he only ate lightly before the match this morning, he's hungry. So he thinks that that he will fill his stomach with something.

"Yo~ so you've come, Akito-kuun? Why don't we talk about various things for the time being?"

The first thing Akito sees when he just entered the dining hall is Raios who is smiling for some reason with his body beaten black and blue. But, if one look closely, there are blood vessels emerge on his forehead, and his cheek is twitching.

"Why are you here, Raois?"
"You haven't had any lunch yet, right? So I thought that you would come, so I waited here."
"Ho~ It's unexpected that you can use your head."
"Shut up."

It seems that Raios has waited for Akito. His mouth is bad, but he is someone that is very thoughtful about his friends, so Akito admire him..

"If you make a move on senpai…… I will kill you, you know?"

But, because Yuuka doesn't realize that, she is letting out her bloodlust while holding Akito's arm. Raios who saw that is at loss saying "Ugh!". As expected, the presence that the S ranked spirit user has is frightening.

"It's alright, Yuuka. I won't be defeated by someone like Raios, right?"
"That's right. there's no way senpai will lose from such ground beetle."

Akito smiled at Yuuka for the time being and made her bloodlust disappear.

"What do you mean by someone like me? This E-ranked bastard!"
"Hee, is it okay? Saying such thing……"
"I'm sorry. That was my bad!"

Moreover Raios was angry, but when Akito grinned while letting him see the bracelets, Raios' face immediately became pale.

Because Akito has never shown his real swordsmanship, it seems that Raios understands that he can't win against him after seeing his ability for the first time today.

"Well, why don't we take a seat for the time being? I will order something for a moment."
"Ah, senpai. Since senpai's condition is not yet in perfect condition, please have a chat with the friend like trash for the time being. I will go taking it. It's not a joke to wait here just me with this trash, until senpai comes back."

Apparently, Yuuka is worried about Akito. Akito honestly felt happy inside his heart.

Then Raios who is called worthless begins to cry. Akito sees it wonderingly, and concludes that he is crying happily because of such a cute and kind junior. Well, he actually knows though.

Sending off Yuuka who goes running, Akito takes the crying Raios' hand and sits together in the nearby seat.

That time, when he gave the lap cloth prepared on the nearby table to Raios while saying "Here, wipe your tears.", he was a bit angry. Being kind is difficult.

A little while after that, Raios who wiped his tears for the time being became serious. Apparently he will move to the main topic.

"Well then, will you let me ask you about various thing? Akito, why are you in this situation now?"
"I don't know!"
"You don't know……"

When Akito threw out his chest brimming with confidence, Raios made an amazed look. Well, the truth is Akito knows though.

Akito is thinking that probably the reasons the princess call him are these.

Seeing the power of Feny's flame, she became interested. Thinking that she would make Akito her exclusive knight, and wanted to see his ability before that.

They're these 2. But neither of them is something he should say to Raios.

That's why Akito decided to play ignorant. The feeling of guilt erupts as he lies to his friend, but it can't be helped.

When Akito thought like that, Raios said "Well then. Next.", and gave the next question.

"Then, I thought after seeing your fight, your “A” in martial arts is a lie, right?"
"Hmm? Would it be …… a lie? Well, if it's bare handed, I thought it's A, you know? For the standard measurement of a spirit user, aside of the spirit armament, you are not allowed to use any weapon except your bare hands. Also I am not allowed to use Hiiragi war arts usually."

When he answered honestly there, Raios nodded saying "I see.". Apparently he believes it. When he is feeling relieved for being believed for the time being–

"Well then, next. Do you really not make a contract with any spirit?"
"I, I don't make a contract with any spirit, you know?"
"Hmm?"

Because he was asked such question suddenly, Akito was at loss instantly. Raios is directing a doubtful gaze to such Akito.

"Thanks for waiting. Eh? What's wrong?"

When he was feeling uncomfortable from Raios' doubtful gaze, Yuuka appeared carrying the tray. It seems that she realized the mood around those 2. She is blinking in surprise while standing.

(Tha, that's dangerous! Nice timing……. Yuuka)
『It really is. Fufufuu』

Stroking his chest inside his mind, Feny laughs at that. It seems that she is enjoying this situation. Thinking that it is someone else problem……

"There is nothing wrong, Yuuka. Hey, sit here."
"Yes."

In order to escape from Raios' gaze for the time being, he smiles at Yuuka. Then, let her sit next to him.

"I decided to go on daily special meal set. Since it's safe."
"Ou. Thanks."

On top of the tray that Yuuka brought, there are deep fried foods, and salad, bread and soup, they are normal, but they look delicious. For the hungry Akito, that is an unbearable sight.

It's warming seeing Yuuka narrowing her eyes after he patted her head to thank her for the time being.

"You guys, are you guys going out?"

Raios stares at them, but Akito ignores it. Though he denies Yuuka who said "it's a matter of fact.".

After that he properly said "Itadakimasu", take the fork, and then he ate a mouthful. It seems that the level of the cafeteria here is quite high.

When Akito raised his thumb toward the kitchen, the aunts seems happy. It seems that there are a lot of interesting people.

He continues the meal while having light conversation with Yuuka and Raios. Why are Raios' eyes rapidly become teary? Is he really that happy from Yuuka's consecutive abuse of "ground beetle"?

–So Raios was a pervert.

Well, he actually knows though, but he decides to think it that way. Since it will be more interesting that way.

Leaving that aside, it's quite hard to eat because Yuuka clings to his body. When Akito is thinking that It can't be helped in one way or another,

"Ga ha ha! How are you! Akito-kun!"

From behind, a cheeky and impudent sound could be heard. While Akito sighs for the time being, he looks behind. As expected it is as Akito expected, there is the cleft chin nice guy, Hawk behind him.

Because of that, Raios is

"Na, wh, whwhwho is he?"

Yuuka who gets a cold feet for the time being is

"Shanpaaaai!"

Shouted with teary eyes, and clings to Akito really hard. Well, it's an inevitable reaction. For Raios, he is an absurdly scary man who is carrying a huge axe behind his back to the point of unbelievable, for Yuuka he is a nice a guy she can't tolerate physiologically. That's because he is Hawk.

Akito talked to Hawk while having a wry smile because the 2 of them.

"Yoo. Hawk. thanks for that time in today's match. For throwing your axe."
"Ga ha ha! It is an old saying to help a friend in times of need, right?"

Although he was unable to use it during today's match, he expresses his gratitudes for throwing him the axe. Then, Hawk laughed happily. Well, he doesn't have any plan on befriending him, and since if he is left alone it seems that he would start to take off his clothes and boast his prided muscle, Akito replied with a wry smile.

(Well, he is a nice guy, it's fine to be his friend. With this guy.)

Akito faced Hawk, and thought like that. Certainly the passionate eyes that looked at him is scary, but he understood that his personality is good.

Suddenly there, Akito asks about the thing he has doubt.

"By the way, where is the other 2?"

Hawk should be the member of Sylvia's imperial guard. However, he felt uneasy as the dark skinned Simba, and the gaudy Light are not here.

Hawk immediately answered that question.

"Hmm? The other 2? They are doing a mock battle in the arena. How about it, Akito-kun? Have a match with me."

Akito thought that it wasn't a joke as Hawk said it calmly. So he decides to refuse.

"I will decline it. My body condition hasn't recovered completely yet."
"I see. That's a shame. I also want to cross sword with you though."

Looking at Hawk who says that looking disappointed, Akito wanted to retort that it's axe, not sword, but he endured it.

Then, as if something good comes to his mind, Hawk eyes shines. That face is, quite scary.

"Well then, how about you? Since you are a friend of Akito who has that much strength, you are strong too, right?"

Hawk said that while grabbing Raios' shoulder for some reason. Because of that, Raios became frightened. Then, he appealed to Akito saying "Help!" with his eyes.

But, Akito looked at that and grinned. Then,

"Yeah. He is absurdly strong, you know? Honestly, I'm no match for him."

He said that while grinning. Because of that, Raios face becomes pale, and Hawk eyes shines in contrast.

"I see I see. Certainly, for a spirit user, your body build is pretty good! Come now! Let's work some sweat with me in place of Akito!"

Then Hawk grabbed Raios' collar, and started dragging him. Moreover Raios is making an expression that he didn't understand the reason.

"Eh? WhaWait!? Akito! Hel…… Gyaaaa! I will remember you for thisssssss!!!"

After that, Raios shouted while directing a gaze filled with resentment toward Akito, and left the dining hall while being dragged by Hawk. Akito decides not to look at it for the time being.

(I wonder if he isn't going to die…..)

Although he was worried for a moment, but thinking about it again it would be alright because there is that field, Akito resumed his meal.
