-Flash!
-Fish!
Setting down my teacup down Rin sighed, we all fell silent.
-Oh ... why are you doing that?
I finally tried to speak up, shattering the quiet atmosphere at the time.
-I told you. Because he was too talkative.
-Kyaa !!
The two men rushed at each other, both fighting as if this was a deadly battle, one losing one. They cast magic on their arms, so the punch was so strong that it created wind that pushed everyone watching. There were people who were cheering excitedly, some people were scared so they pulled out of the stands. We sat there silently, holding our breath and watching both of them.
-Really. Just now, they were almost exhausted.
Kaito did not dare blink an eye at this war.
At the same time, both of them threw a right hook into the opponent's face and then shot to both corners of the ring. Now Rin's glasses were crushed, which was no different from a fatal blow to him. Slowly getting up, Raiku wiped a long trail of blood near his mouth with his hand.
-Very good! I know you won't let me down.
Saying that, Raiku lifted up a large piece of the broken floor of the ring, as if holding a round piece of paper and threw it at Rin. At that moment, he was still rubbing his eyes trying to look at the surrounding scenery, moreover after the last shot his head was spinning like a pinwheel.
-Hey! Where are you looking?
-Well! I don't see anything.
-So you just close your eyes and keep going.
-Huh...
-He. Dust flew to my eyes.
-Haha! Let me see ... okay.
-Thank you, sir!
-Wait! I have this.
-What is it? A! I did not see anything.
He took out a black ribbon and covered his eyes.
- Now try to practice.
-But I can't see.
-Right!
-ASIAN! That's hurt!
He bent down, pressed his forehead and rubbed his head.
-This will probably be the last thing I teach you.
-He? Why so?
-The story is complicated, and one day I'll understand. Now let's start.
He started to sit down and radiate large amounts of magic that he, who was blindfolded, also felt and amazed.
-You must always remember, magic flows through everything in this world. Sometimes, my senses will deceive myself, but magic inside won't. When that time comes, close your eyes, stop listening and feel everything around ... with magic. If you master this technique, even enemies that are miles away can easily detect it.
-Oaaa !!
-Well ... sit down, I and you will outline the shape of everything in the dark.
They both sat there, late in the evening, and although many wanted to call them in for dinner, there was no response. Passersby, who sense his magic must also be wary. Having him, who was often very busy with his own work, taught himself in this way made him very happy, no, rather, he felt happy. He wished he would keep teaching him this. But wishes will sometimes only be wishes.
-Bam!
The stands were dumbfounded. In just a few moments, Rin spun around to break the rock and rushed to knock Raiku down. He then smiled and raised his hand in surrender. Yumi immediately ran down there, we saw that and frantically chased. Rin still stood there, looking up at the vast sky and whispering something to herself.
-Brother!
-Well, Yumi, why are you down here?
His voice has changed, maybe due to my imagination, Rin's voice suddenly becomes warm and gentler. And on top of that, in contrast to his usual cold-hearted smile, it was rare.
-I'm seriously injured. You need to get medical treatment right away!
Yumi was very worried now, her face turned pale when she saw that his right arm was covered with his blood and injuries. And sometimes, she cried.
What a good younger sister, I thought to myself and instinctively tried to imagine that the injured person was me. But then pinched his cheeks to wake up.
-Who da! Good fight, kid. You have to admire it.
Raiku stood up, reached out and shook hands with Rin. But instead of doing so, he stood still and made everyone wonder what he was doing.
-Pop!
He flipped his hand forward in his left hand, then pulled it back with all his might to punch him in the stomach, causing Raiku to fly away and hit the wall.
-Ep! It hurts.
Falling to the ground, he faded away after that.
-But you know what to do?
-Whatever.
Rin had returned to being a serious, cold-hearted person and did not care about other people's feelings, so his response made Mika very angry. But there was nothing she could do, so she went outside and slammed the door.
-Well, let me follow.
Kaito scratched his head, went out, and Rin got up and put on a long coat to cover his bandaged arm and went to the doctor's appointment treatment room. I turned to Yumi, who was confused at the time. Surely she wanted to reconcile people but did not know what to say. Right now in this large room, just me and her, this quiet atmosphere makes me feel restless. I thought I had to say something, but what to say? Looking at Yumi, she still silently lowered her head and looked at the floor. I involuntarily rubbed my lips and stared at the thought.
-A that's right!
-What! What ... what's wrong, Kazuto?
My thoughts unconsciously became speech and startled Yumi.
-What do you think if we make a congratulatory cake?
-Congratulations cake?
-It's correct! Congratulations on the first victory for Kaito and Rin. After we have finished we will gather everyone and help them to reconcile.
-Oaa !! Good idea, Kazuto!
Yumi's eyes glistened like a cute girl, somewhat captivating me.
-What's wrong, Kazuto? Your face is a bit red, do you have a fever?
-A, no. No, it is not.
I covered my face with one hand to shake off the incorrect sign, but Yumi approached me. She brushed up my bangs and pressed her forehead against mine.
-Oh, my!
-Bam!
Because of the surprise, I leaned back so much that I fell to the floor.
-Are you okay!?
-It's okay, I'm just being careless.
Leaving the large, unoccupied room behind, Yumi and I went out to buy ingredients for baking. Somehow, but I decided to wear a black leather jacket, with my shoulder hanging with a short red ribbon. I sometimes wonder if this shirt makes me look like a bear's head. Although she was a child of the prestigious family, Yumi dressed quite simply, but saying that, her brown brown skirt with a thin waist also cost about forty gold coins. Referring to the money, because I was a "reluctant" student, the school's supply was limited every month, and because I was a student, I wasn't allowed to work part-time, so I always had to save. as much as possible. So the money to buy the ingredients was all spent by Yumi, actually I felt awkward about this, but she still said it was okay so I accepted.
-What do you like in black, Kazuto?
-Huh? Oh yeah, that's right. But there is also red color.
-I see that there are only two colors. Why so?
-Hm ... that ... I don't know either. I just like that.
-He ... you're weird Kazuto ...
-...
-... But I like that.
Once again, she made my heart race. I always told myself that by imagination, it was just a temporary vibe between men and women, but even so, I knew that I could not lie like that.
- Hey Mika, let's go. We've been around the neighborhood a few times already.
-Huh!
-Hey!
Kaito grabbed Mika's wrist, but she immediately jumped out and pointed at his face.
-So buy me some food and I'll go home.
Though dissatisfied, he could only sigh and accept the silly request in the end.
-I know. So stand here and wait for me to come back.
Returning to the large room, the mood of the two of us went down a step when we saw that there was no one left. Rin had to undergo a physical examination for the next battle, so I could understand it later in the evening, but Kaito and Mika had not returned yet, which worried Yumi and I. Leaving aside that, we changed our clothes, rolled up our sleeves and started working.
-Kazuto.
-What happened?
-Do you ever make cakes?
-He!
Which reminds me, it's true that I never touched the kitchen before. But I also didn't want Yumi to be disappointed, so I still patted my chest for a manly appearance.
-No problem! Just leave it to me.
-Hihi! So this guy, let's try it together.
Yumi gave me a pamphlet about how to cook.
As expected, still being grabbed by him, I sighed and started reading.
-Here! I bought some Mochi. I didn't know which one she liked, so I bought all of them.
-Flash! Make friends from childhood without knowing what kind of people they like.
-I have never seen you eat mochi.
-Huh!
Mika gobbled up the mochi, she imagined each mochi as Kaito and bit it as if biting into his face. Seeing the terrible appetite Kaito was just silent and watching her eat.
-So ... why are you so angry at Rin? You know his personality.
-Not really angry with that attitude, it's just ... sometimes I feel annoyed at myself for being grumpy with people.
Speaking of which, she was sad, overlooking the bustling street where the lights began to glow due to the sunset.
-Is not. I do not think so.
-Star?
-Because it's grandma, not someone else. Isn't it best to be yourself? So, there's nothing wrong with being a grumpy grandmother who teaches others. I found it quite interesting.
-Kaito ... that's right. Thank you, sir.
Hearing Kaito's words just now made her feel so warm, wiping away the tears that were about to come out of her eyes, she smiled happily and decided to shake off the foolish thoughts just now.
- Let's go home.
-Yes. Come on.
-But hey...
-Hum?
-... are you ... crying?
-Huh!? There is no.
-Pain!!
Mika pinched Kaito's ear and pulled her ear to drag him along.
The cake is completed by the time everyone returns. Seeing that Yumi and I were smirking, Kaito and Mika both laughed, Rin just smiled but that was enough for us. The hilarious atmosphere finally returned to this cozy room.
