226 – I Gotta Feeling (3)

Theo carefully raised his head and looked at Alice.

Wearing a blue ribbon headband on her head, Alice wearing a blue apron dress looked at her Theo with blue eyes ──

“What is on my face?”

──I stared restlessly.

It was because everyone in the cafe, including Theo, was looking at him.

“Sit down.”

Theo said so instead of answering.

Alice sat down in her seat. There was an energy in his voice that was hard to deny.

Then he looked carefully at Theo and said.

“What did you do to find me… Oh?”

But it was hard to read Theo’s expression, so I stammered a little.

He had a calm expression from the beginning until now. He was a man whose expression never changed, just like he had seen before at martial arts tournaments.

‘aaa…

As she looked at it, Alice made her head spin. She

She says she manages her expression, but she had a hard time.

‘Whew. Let’s not be nervous, be nervous…!’

But just as thinking about not thinking about elephants makes you think of elephants more, thinking about not being nervous makes you more nervous.

Alice, who was even more nervous, feared what kind of ridiculous expression she would be making now, so she instinctively lowered her head.

Then, Theo said.

“Are you busy?”

Tuk- It was a short word.

Alice’s head turned quickly.

He pondered whether to make him nervous by making fun of being busy or to be honest.

“Oh, no! Ha, it’s free. On weekends, I usually just sleep… Ahahahaha.”

I just said it honestly.

I had an intuition that if I waged an invisible war of nerves with the man in front of me, he would surely lose.

There is a saying that you can know ten ways under water, but not one way inside people, but that doesn’t seem to apply to that man.

Even if you know what’s inside the water, it seems you don’t know what that man is inside.

With a nonchalant expression, Theo handed the menu to Alice.

“This, is this…?”

“I wondered what it would be like to talk while eating something. I didn’t know what menu I liked, so I ordered mine. Let them do what they want.”

“Ah, yes. Yes!”

Alice took her menu and spread it over her face.

To be honest, I wondered what the menu had to do with the current situation. No matter what you eat, you don’t know if it goes through your nose or your mouth.

About 3 minutes, while Alice was calming her mind and body while covering her face with the menu board.

“If you don’t have a particular menu you want, I’ll recommend it.”

Theo snatched the menu and took it.

Alice was taken aback by the unexpected situation. She was afraid to show an expression that would obviously be awkward.

But——

“Sweet drinks are here. I recommend the blueberry frappe. I haven’t tried it, but my secretary, who likes gourmet food, has tried it and says it’s very good. If you’re looking for something a bit more bland, go here. Grain latte……”

──Theo didn’t even look at Alice’s face.

They just point their fingers at each menu board and give you heartfelt recommendations.

Seeing that, Alice felt as if she had been hit hard in the back of the head.

‘Ah… That’s embarrassing.’

Seeing him fully focused on himself right in front of his eyes, a sense of shame came over him.

I feel like an idiot.

To a person like that, to think that he had been doing shadow boxing or fighting, trying to hide his inner feelings and revealing his intentions.

·······.

“I wonder.”

His voice awakened Alice’s thoughts.

“Ah, ah! Sorry. I’m dizzy for a while… Can you say it again?”

“I didn’t know you were not feeling well. It is my negligence.”

Theo lowered her head slightly to her, biting her lower lip.

‘Ah… No way!’

Right away, Alice returned to reality.

She was soaked in sentiment for a while, but the most important thing here is Theo’s liking.

If she gave the impression of being weak for nothing, she could get him a deduction!

“No! I guess it’s because I didn’t eat breakfast. Hee hee, that sounds odd. As soon as we talked, it was fine. I’m fine with anything!”

“I’m glad.”

Theo continued.

“If you say it’s okay, I’ll take care of it.”

“Yes, yes! Thank you!”

Theo got up and headed for the order.

Alice looked at his back for a moment, then tilted her head.

‘Hmm, what is this scent…?’

A forest full of conifers. At the same time, a subtle scent that feels artificial restraint.

The familiar scent tickled her nose.

After a while, Theo returned to his seat.

“I ordered it as a blueberry parfait.”

“Thank you. But, Theo. Can I ask you something?”

“If you can answer.”

Theo looked at Alice with a pitying face.

‘Ugh.’

In Alice’s mind, the past, she bet with him to answer her question, came to mind.

Of course, she was defeated by being bloodied by him, and the feeling of fear carved into her body at that time still remains.

“Ah. No big deal. Do you use perfume, Yves All No.4?”

“That is what I sprinkled today.”

Theo nodded.

Alice blankly took that natural look into her eyes.

The thought of managing her own expression, which could be ridiculous, that was still vaguely entrenched in her mind disappeared before she knew it.

‘·······Ah.’

From the words ‘what I sprayed on today’, I can guess that it is a man who uses several perfumes.

Besides, it was the same perfume as the only adult she admired. The adult also uses several perfumes.

Alice suddenly felt cozy with this man who constantly made her nervous.

‘There’s no way they coincided.’

Eveall No.4 Is a high-end perfume that is produced in very small quantities every year, named after the legendary designer ‘Eveall’ who made his name known throughout the continent.

The name of the adult she admires is Henderson Henry.

He is an exploration undergraduate professor who grows his mustache long and always wears a tailored suit to teach.

She served as a judge for the [Beauty Contest] Held at the Academy Festival last week.

Could it be because of the admiration and admiration for Henderson?

Alice has become an expert on fragrances, something she knew very little about prior to her matriculation.

‘······As expected, my senses match well! This is exploration!’

It was good that I only applied to Theo-

I did well to decorate and come-

Theo stared at Alice, who was congratulating herself on herself.

Sensing his gaze, Alice blinked her eyes several times, then met Theo’s.

“Why are you staring at me so intently… Yo.”

Said Alice in awe.

Theo tilted his head and replied.

“Didn’t you hear the staff’s voice? They say your menu is out.”

“······Ah, yes.”

Alice felt her face heat up and headed to her order to pick up her drink.

* * *

In front of the front gate of [Ford Company].

With the 6 senior spirits and the large iron golem at his command, the chairman had a triumphant expression on his face.

‘Ugh~ There are so many crystal spheres for communication. Odius really liked that too!’

After a long time, I found traces of what was believed to be an old colleague, so I followed and found this place.

As soon as the chairman read Locke’s report, he immediately went to the place where the armed invasion had taken place.

They must have escaped without leaving any traces- You might have thought, but in the eyes of the continent’s best mage and elementalist, the director’s eyes showed traces, and there were helpers.

The helper was a high-level wind spirit that Sienna called by the nickname Shuk Shuk.

She has a wanderlust and wanders from place to place on the continent, but for some reason she was in the academy.

─It’s been a while~ It’s been several years, is this? Almost 100 years? Oh, they’re called shook shook lately? It’s a very corny name. Anyway help me! It’s an adventure after a long time!

After receiving help from Shuksuk, the job became very easy.

[Mass Teleport] Using a scroll can only move about 100km at the longest because of the mana limit.

The chairman searched a 100km radius of the academy with Shuksuk and numerous other wind spirits, and succeeded in stepping on the intruders’ tails.

The result is the current situation.

The chairman looked at the crystal ball for communication and gritted his lips.

─Suck. Lee. Me. And.

After about five minutes, the front door opened and a person came out. It was a human male who looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s.

The man approached the chairman and bowed his head 90 degrees.

“Hello, Lunaflora. My name is Thomas, interim director of [The Ford Company].”

“What is it, it’s not Odius! Not even Ryuk! Who are you?!”

“·······.”

Stupid, Thomas quickly turned his head instead of answering.

‘Does he have no intention of listening?’

I introduced myself as soon as I saw it, but the chairman said something he didn’t understand.

However, in the face of a disaster that could strike anywhere, it is impossible to show your true feelings.

“Sorry. Let me introduce you again. My name is Thomas, a scientist who is in charge of several studies. Recently, we have created a machine that moves according to the user’s will, called a robot.”

“Oh, I don’t know. I don’t know! Robot or whatever, what do I know! They said that they would be together until the end, and then they left me alone and disappeared! I can’t wait any longer! Bring the Audius right now! Or I’ll spray it all over here!”

“·······.”

Thomas was dizzy at the strange situation of the chairman.

······Audius.

Isn’t it the last great wizard who disappeared over 200 years ago?

He must have already died and become a white bone, but there is no other group like this to bring him.

Thomas lifted his head slightly and checked the face of the chairman.

In her clear eyes, a deep madness shone.

I think that old fairy has finally gone mad.

‘······The first priority is to calm down.’

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they sprayed everything here.

People who have gone to Mattangi have a tendency to achieve what they say in any way.

Not to mention, the opponent is the continent’s best elementalist and wizard.

If you put your mind to it, you can turn this area into ruins in 10 minutes.

Thomas cleared his mind and opened his mouth.

“First of all, you must be having a hard time coming a long way. Can I take you inside? I’ll look all over to see if there is such a person. Due to the nature of the Northern Magic City, most of them are people whose status is uncertain.”

“Yes, yes. But I can’t wait long!”

“Does it matter?”

So Thomas took the chairman and went inside the [Ford Company].
