The Other Side of the Last Boss Chapter 74

I arrived at the meeting place, but Yufilia hadn't arrived yet.

I waited for her while fidgeting.

What is it, this restless feeling?

I met her just a while ago, and I see her on a regular basis.

Yet, I still turned out like this.

Is this the magic of a date? How terrifying.

Before long, one girl came.

Naturally, it was Yufilia.

She was wearing a white dress and a felt hat.

"Pu."

As soon as she saw me, Yufilia burst into laughter.

"I,is something wrong?"

I look at my clothes.

"I told you to bring a disguise, and you wore sungla.s.ses, so I was thinking it was a little cliched."

"You're hat isn't being much of a disguise either."

"It's fine like this."

Yufilia took her hat and put it on again.

"How is it?"

"It really fits you."

"Oh, so you've become able to give flattery now."

Yufilia lightly laughed.

Still, she looks happy.

I'm getting used to this little by little.

I've heard of the model answers from the old man.

"Well then, let's go."

Yufilia stuck out her hand.

I *doki* stiffen up.

"What's wrong? We're going to transfer."

We could just both transfer separately, but we'd get separated if we didn't have the same destination.

That's why it's better to hold hands to transfer together.

That's all it is.

I experienced this many times before.

Why did my heart skip a beat?

"Ah, sorry."

I grab Yufilia's hand.

When Yufilia casted the transfer magic, our vision changed immediately.

The Island Kingdom's capital, Dubram.

We were near its center.

I can smell salt.

Its proof that we're near the ocean.

"Well then, where should we go?"

I decided to go without a plan just before.

However, we can only start with this.

"For now, should we have a late meal?"

"I agree. But where should we go? I'm not too familiar with this area."

"Since we came to Dubram, how about we get seafood? Leave choosing the store to me."

"Eh? Really?"

Yufilia seems to be surprised.

"It's alright, there aren't any problems."

That's because my men investigated.

I said that, and took Yufilia to the store.

"Huh, it looks like a slightly fancy restaurant."

I ordered a pasta with plenty of seafood, and Yufilia ordered paella.

"This is delicious."

As soon as our food arrived, Yufilia smacked her lips and tasted her food.

"That's good."

Apparently the investigation team was competent.

"But, I'm surprised you knew of this place."

"I did some research."

My subordinates were the ones who did it though.

"Fuun."

However, Yufilia looked at me suspiciously.

"So you picked some chicks up and brought them here?"

Yufilia *bishi* points her finger at me.

"Th,that's wrong."

"It was a joke. Fufu."

When I hurriedly denied it, Yufilia smiled.

"I guess for just this, your words won't change anymore. Of course, since I can understand you anyways, it wouldn't matter that much though."

"I,I guess I'm still okay."

Apparently she was trying to upset me.

I eat my pasta too. The shrimp and squid go well with the tomato sauce.

"Yours seems delicious too."

"At times like these, the other person's food always seems delicious."

I look at her paella.

In the first place, I'm j.a.panese.

I thought that I should've chosen rice.

Sensing that, Yufilia brought her spoon to my mouth.

"Here. Aahn."

"ｃくぉ。ｄぉれｈヴぃｔなんごｍ(Wai, that's a little.)"

"Oh, but this is training. You have to get used to things like this too."

Yufilia has a charming smile.

I was attracted by it, and opened my mouth.

"Delicious."

"Fufu. Then this time let me try of pasta."

"Wai."

Yufilia looked at me with a face filled with expectations.

With my heart beating quickly, I wrap some pasta around my fork and bring it closer to Yufilia's mouth.

*Churun* The pasta was sucked into her charming mouth.

"This is good too."

Eh? Isn't this that indirect kiss thing?

Yufilia seems to be the type who doesn't mind those kinds of things.

However, my heart is beating quickly.

If I speak now, I'd definitely get out.

Thus, I silently ate my pasta.

Pay the bill, then go outside.

"Well then, what should we do now?"

"Do you have anywhere you want to go?"

"This city is stylish, unlike Graggo."

Graggo is the largest city in the world. It also has the largest population.

Thus, it has a urban structure that emphasizes function.

You could call it an inorganic town.

Dubram is unlike that, and had an elegant, beautiful landscape.

"Anyways, how about we drop by that store?"

It was a boutique.

Yufilia was looking for things while humming a tune.

I watch over her.

While she was doing that, it seems she found something she liked.

However, there were 2 things.

"Hey hey, which one do you think suits me better?"

Here it comes.

This is the situation I predicted.

Yufilia brought over 2 blouses with different colors and designs.

I can't say that either one is fine, or that they both suit her.

Eh? Then what's the right answer?

I have 2 options. There's a 50% chance I'll get the correct answer.

What a terrifying selection.

"Yo,you don't need to think that seriously about it though."

When I was comparing the 2 of them, Yufilia made a troubled face.

"Th,this one I guess? I think it's cute, so how about this one?"

"Oh, I see, thank you."

Yufilia said that, but she returned both of them.

Apparently I was wrong.

Yufilia went back to looking at clothes.

When Yufilia stopped looking over here, I looked at the memopad.

'Which one suits her?' How to cope when asked this.

By the time a woman asks you this question, she's already decided which one she likes.

There are few cases where they're actually worrying about it.

You may think, 'Then why does she ask you each time?'

They want you to confirm it for them.

They want a push on their back.

"I think this is good, you do too right?"

That is the real question.

In addition to this, there also exists the purpose of enjoying communication while shopping.

Well then, about the solution, you don't need to find the right answer.

This is because it's just a means to enjoy shopping.

There isn't even any need to a.s.sert that one is good.

If you praise both, the person will eventually come to their own conclusion.

It's also possible to conversely ask her, 'Which one do you think is better?'

Since her answer is already decided, she'll answer saying, 'I think this one is nice'.

Then, she will praise those clothes.

Yep. This is a pain in the a.s.s.

I'm supposed to understand this?

After that I was asked similar questions, but since I mastered what was in the manual, I finished it without any waste.

After that, we went to the sandy beach.

The wind is a bit strong.

We watched the ocean for a bit while listening to the sound of the waves.

"Ashtal, you grew up in the mountains right?"

That was my setting. I'm supposed to be from the countryside in eastern part of the continent.

I nod.

"In that case, you didn't have many chances to see the ocean right?"

"It's been awhile I guess. Well, I could always come over here by transferring though."

"Then let's come again."

"Yeah."

"This was fun. Ah, but this was training. I guess this wasn't really training though."

Yufilia uneasily looked at me.

"Nah, I had fun too, so there's no problem."

So far as it goes, I think this was training.

To my answer, Yufilia made a serious expression and came closer to me.

The smell of salt mixed in with Yufilia's sweet smell.

Chu.

Yufilia kissed my cheek.

"○▼※△☆▲※◎！(Not able to be translated.)"

I panic.

Yufilia's cheeks turned red.

"As expected, even I don't know what you just said. But, I guess it went well."

Yufilia made the face of a devil.

I calm my heart, and ask.

"い、ぅｚがうぃｎｇお(Translation: What are you doing so suddenly?)"

"Trai,training, it's training. Since I made you get upset, it's my win."

Yufilia makes a victorious face.

In that match, I have no chance of victory though.

"Also an expression of grat.i.tude, I guess."

"みょれぃ？(Translation: Expression of grat.i.tude?)

"I've been taken care of you lately. That's why—-"

At that moment, there was a sudden gust, and Yufilia's skirt flew up.

I can see shorts with a little pink fabric.

It had frills, and one portion of it was see-through, and s.e.xy styled.

Yufilia turned red, and hurriedly pushed her skirt down.

"Di,di,di,did you see?"

"I,I didn't see anything."

It somehow turned into an answer that neither of us could understand.

"Th,that's not it. Adela handed me these just in case……"

Adela was Yufilia's maid, right?

"Just in case?"

I didn't really understand, and tilted my head.

"I,if you don't understand it's fine. I don't wear these normally anyways."

I felt uneasy, but still sent Yufilia, who was saying something I couldn't understand, home.
