Chapter 156: Something strange but not bizzare...
(3rd pov)
Golden Darkness is the name that brings into anyone who meets her fear. She is one of the best assassins in the galaxy, and her current target is Ryoto Yuuki.
Right now, she is enjoying her time reading a book on the bench and occasionally eating Taiyaki.
After a month of living on Earth, every time she noticed Ryoto, she attacked him, but of course, she couldn't hit him, not because she was too weak, but she stopped before any serious fighting occurred.
However, she was annoyed at his ever-present smile every time he dodged her. It felt like he was taunting her.
Just thinking about it made her annoyed and made her aggressively eat Taiyaki until she felt a hand on her shoulder.
Yami didn't feel anyone's presence, and it wasn't often that someone could sneak up on her, so she immediately attacked that someone out of habit.
One should know to not sneak up on an assassin. Not to mention one of the best assassins in the galaxy, but that person was anything but ordinary.
Ryoto Yuuki was his name, and annoying people was his game.
Yami transformed part of her hair blade to pierce the head of Ryoto but he only slightly tilted his head, avoiding the blade.
On his face, a playful smile was plastered.
Ryoto: "Nice to see you too, Yami."
Yami glared at Ryoto.
Yami: "...How did you do it?"
Yami stared at his hand, shocked.
Ryoto: "How... did I put my hand on your shoulder? Truly I must be a master at controlling my body to accomplish such a feat."
This joke earned him a fist to the face, which he blocked with an arm infused with Haki.
The smile didn't leave Ryoto's face.
Yami: "You know what I mean..."
Ryoto: "So basically, I was walking around, and I noticed you, so I decided to say hi."
Ryoto obviously didn't plan to reveal anything, not because he had something to hide, but because it was fun teasing her.
To make a seemingly emotionless girl show emotions is entertaining.
Yami: "*Sigh* What do you want, Ryoto Yuuki. Don't forget that you're still my target."
It looked like Yami gave up trying to get information out of Ryoto. She may not know Ryoto for a long time, but she learned at least one thing about him. He is annoying.
Ryoto sat next to Yami and took out a lollipop.
Ryoto: "I was shopping around. I noticed you, that's all. You looked lonely, and I decided to accompany you a bit."
Yami: "Your concern is unnecessary. Please leave."
Ryoto: "Cold as usual."
But Ryoto didn't leave her but didn't annoy her any longer and just enjoyed his lollipop.
Yami curiously took a short peek at Ryoto, but she didn't do anything and returned to reading.
Sometimes just having someone accompanying you can change the mood of whatever you're doing, be it for better or worse.
Now I wonder in which group Yami is.
(Ryoto's pov)
I spend some time with Yami. As of late, many crazy things have happened to me, and they don't plan on stopping.
Am I responsible for at least a few of them? Probably, but that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy quiet times.
But the quiet times are over as I'm at home. I warned Mikan about Lala's tail, for now, Lala won't shoot randomly anymore until we find some kind of solution.
I also gave Lala a few Dying Will Bullets so she can either reproduce them or use them for some of her others inventions.
If Lala succeeds, then Rito will have a lot more chances to confess to Haruna.
Right now, we are eating a dinner that I made. We were enjoying the meal in silence until Mikan decided to speak.
Mikan: "Ryoto, you need to hold back a little your... night activities."
She surprised me with that question, and why was she saying that only to me? Lala was literally sitting next to me. She is my accomplice, after all.
Lala: "But it's fun!"
Rito choked on his food.
Mikan cleared her throat, not expecting Lala to defend our love-making sessions.
Mikan: "I understand that, but in about two months, we'll have two new residents, and I believe that they would be extremely uncomfortable with you doing it every day."
(E/D: The uncomfortable in this line was unconscious. Me lose brain cells.)
(A/N Don't blame me, blame my autocorrect.)
Lala and I looked at each other confused.
Two new residents? In about two months, it would be a beginning of a new school year, so it would mean that we would house two freshmen students since our school doesn't have school dorms, so residents of Sainan High allow freshmen to live with them. Sometimes they do it for free. Other times they want compensation in the form of money, but it's still a lot cheaper than renting an apartment.
But the strangest thing is that neither I, from what I can understand, nor Lala didn't know about it.
Ryoto: "What do you mean by that?"
Mikan was caught off guard by my question.
Mikan: "You already forgot about it? We agreed to help two girls that will start studying at Sainan High this April."
I looked at Mikan strangely.
Ryoto: "We agreed to let two girls live here while Mr. Lucky pervert is in the house."
I turned to Rito.
Ryoto: "No offense."
Rito looked down, dejected.
Rito: "...None taken."
Mikan had a look of realization and widened her eyes.
Mikan: "What have we done?"
Ryoto: "What's done can't be undone, and we already promised, so it would be rude to reject them so close to the beginning of the school year, so we'll need to house them at least until we find them a new place to live."
Mikan: "That would be for the best... Wait, are you saying that just because you want to continue what you do with Lala without intervention!?"
I shrugged her suspicions off.
Ryoto: "Of course not. This small obstacle wouldn't stop me."
I said proudly.
Ryoto: "But never mind that, can you at least tell me their names?"
Mikan opened her mouth to answer my question, but she stopped herself, realizing that she didn't have the answer to that question.
Mikan: "Strange...I can't remember, but I was sure that I knew that."
Something's fishy, and it's not penguins' dinner.

(E/D: The number of mistakes in this chapter made me confused. If I were to list them out then I would probably have about 40 words. Being an Editor is not easy. Give me some coffee.)
(A/N Me tired, happy that I finish.)
(E/D: Also I am standing on 30 power stones, and Mr. Kurit-kun is at 426 as of right now. Today is Wednesday and Sunday is the last day of the power stones collection. You better spend them power stones if you haven't.)
