“Or I'll extend the rent of this place until Kino is completely cured” Kaito connect the sentence Kino
“......!!!” everyone was surprised to hear it
Kino had no idea that Kaito would say such a thing. The bar scene doesn't seem to change Kaito's good nature.
“After that, I will take my memory gems and leave here” Kaito continued
Kino looked at Kaito and gave him a smile. Hearing Kaito's words, Joel immediately looks happy and says to his children.
“See, what Joel-papa said. Papa managed to do something, right? You can still be with them
A big smile was seen from the children. Theo immediately hugged Kaito tightly after which he ran to hug Kino. The three children hugged Kino happily.
What worries me is the words that the children say.
“Kino-niisan does not need to heal quickly. We'll come take care of you”
“Hah?” Ryou was surprised to hear that
“.....” Kino and Kaito are speechless with flat facial expressions
“If Kino-niisan quickly healed, later we will quickly part with you. We will take good care of you but we will take care of you so that Kino-niisan does not heal quickly” continued Stelani
“True. Later we will take good care of you, Kino-nii”
There was only an atmosphere a while ago, now it was like there was a declaration of war from them. Of course the declaration of war was aimed at Ryou.
-braak
The sound of table shaking was heard. Ryou immediately stood up and pointed at the children with an annoyed face. A great fight began between him and the three children.
“I thought I couldn't believe your crocodile tears, you little demons!! Watch you! Get away from my brother!!”
“Go you big brother! We hug you to make you off guard!” theo said while looking annoyed
“I know you're sneaky! Give me back my good thoughts about you guys! I'll sleep with you all!!”
Hearing that, Joel seemed to want to join the fight.
“Oi! What do you want to do to my sweet children, boy don't know yourself!”
“Be quiet, perverted om-om! Teach your children this good behavior!”
“Mesum...mesum said you! I've graduated from that word! Pull back your words!”
Looks like Kino should be a little more patient.
“Friends...”.
Totally ignored.
“Friends...”.
And twice.
‘Gawat’ Kaito seems to understand this situation
As if not wanting to repeat the mistake for the third time, Kaito stood up and took his sword. With a serious face, he began to draw his sword.
“All of you, if the storm is more than this.I will forcefully drive all of you and I will make sure none of you can enter this place again. You're included, Ryou”
“What?!” Ryou seemed to be inadmissive
“Want to stop fighting or get out of here? Or do you want to see Kino's friendly smile there before she says a piercing spicy sentence for all of us? Select one”
Kaito threatened them all. It was unexpected that they all saw Kino who was smiling kindly as if she did not care about all those fights.
“Why stop? Not continued anymore?” ask Kino gently
“.....” everything is silent
They returned to their original place with flat faces. The three children sat down sweetly without saying anything and Kaito put his sword back down with a heavy sigh.
‘Almost my mentality fell again. This is really unexpected’ murmured
A momentary silence. After they were silent for a few minutes to calm down, Kino stood up.
“We have nothing to present. But if you're hungry, I still have a little leftover vegetables and processed meat to cook. Want to try eating my cooking no?”
Kino's offer was a gift to the three children. Of course they accept it. Joel could only smile and say thank you. For a while, Kino spent her time in the kitchen with the three children trying to help her.
On the other hand, Joel talks seriously with Ryou and Kaito. He tells what Kino said at the bar and what Theo heard.
“So...that's right?” joel asked the two teenagers before him
“True. But as Kino told you, if that gem of my memory is not just one in this place then it is likely that we will still be here. But if only one then we will instantly disappear” explained Kaito
“That's Kaito's case. But it's different with me and Kino. Since we basically accidentally logged into this weird ‘world’ without knowing how to go back, it's possible that the two of us will stay put. Or thrown somewhere else” Ryou added
“Ya..like that. But we can't keep it here. From the past, each of us has been in a bad situation. Especially when in ‘world night’, Kino almost died because it protects the gem belonging to Kaito” continued Ryou
“Hard to believe. Uh! Don't misunderstand me. I believe in your stories. I just can't believe you guys faced all that for looking for a piece of gem. Especially you, Kaito”
“....” Kaito is silent
“You said it was your memory, but why the shape of a jewel and why it can be spread to other places or dimensions like your story?”
A very reasonable question from Joel. Until now, Kino and Ryou had never asked. They had only heard that Kaito was told by the person who helped him to go to another ‘world’ with a pocket watch that had been given magical powers of some kind of magic.
“The person who helped me only told me that my memories were scattered into pieces of purple-colored gems, but I didn't know anything else”
“Where did he know that?” Joel asked curiously
A very good coincidence because this is Ryou's chance to find out more about who Kaito really is and who the person he refers to as his helper is.
“The person who helped me has some kind of power that is possible if in the other world it is called magic. In some ‘world’ before this ‘world’, I've seen someone use a spell to create fireballs and rain. Maybe that kind of thing” Kaito explained
Joel was shocked to hear that. Not only Joel, but Ryou was also quite shocked. The two of them seemed to get a surprise from what Kaito said. In addition, Kaito's story is the first thing Ryou has heard.
“The person who helped me told me that he found me in his backyard. When she found out I couldn't remember anything, she gave me a name and did something with magic to help me”
“.....” both others listened seriously
Unexpectedly, Kino who was cooking also put on a serious face because she could listen to the story even though it was vague.
“He found out what I was going through and told me about my memory pieces. But..I'm sorry because I can't tell you guys everything
Kaito looks at Ryou and looks at the kitchen and looks at Joel as he continues his words.
“Maybe I could have told Kino and Ryou everything, since they were both my helpers. But, I can't tell you everything, master manager. Since your relationship with me is nothing more than someone you just met. Even though I owe you for the cost of all of our treatment, but there is a limit where I cannot open up to you”
“I understand. That's enough for me. Your story has been very open even though we just got to know each other. Thank you very much” Joel smiled satisfied
Though a little, Ryou begins to know a little about who Kaito is. He was also sure that Kino had heard all of that as well.
In the kitchen, the children were engrossed in helping Kino include vegetables. Kino tries to look fine despite being a little surprised by Kaito's story.
“Kino-niichan, what's up?” Fabil asked Kino
“It's okay. I still have meat. I'll try making vegetable tempura and bacon”
“Tempura? What cuisine is it?” ask Stelani
“That's cooking from Japan. Place of originku”
“We want to hear the place of origin Kino-nii.Tell us” Theo looks excited.
“I'll tell you after we finish cooking this”
They all do pretty fun cooking together. After cooking, they eat together. This time the three teenagers ate with all of them.
“Didn't you say you didn't feel hungry?” Joel asked the three teenagers
“Not feeling hungry doesn't mean no need to eat. This is Kino cuisine. You should know that his homemade cooking is the most delicious!” Ryou looks so confident with his words
Not only did the three children look hungry and tempted by the smell but Kaito was also quite interested in the cuisine. He felt so homesick about the taste, so it was no wonder that he was looking forward enough to the cooking coming back.
Kino explained the menu at the table.
“This vegetable tempura, vegetable soup tofu and also nikujaga. Although the meat is a little because we have cooked earlier”
“Huwaaa~feels good”
“Come eaten”
It didn't take long, Theo and the others took it straight away. Joel tried to hold back but it seemed like he was hungry enough to hold on.
“Enak~” all four guests look happy with the meal
Kaito just enjoyed it quietly, whereas Ryou just chewed it peacefully.
A warm situation that is quite illustrative of the family atmosphere.
“What is this...already can pay for what we did last afternoon to you?” Kino asked with her face
“Kino-nii..”
“I'm really sorry for ruining your lunch at bar”
“Don't discuss that again, Kino. This is more than enough. Thank you very much” Joel smiled
The three children also looked happy. It's like, one of their wishes will come true.
