Chapter 143: Three against one



"Onii-sama!" 

"Masa!" 

Leaning on the wall of the station, Masa read an e-book quietly on his device until two familiar voices were heard. 

The two figures ran so fast; one was small, and the other was tall. They competed against each other, but all of a sudden, the small one used a lesser version of "Mercury," which increased her physical ability, including her speed, and then leaped into her big brother's arms. 

"Onii-sama!" 

"..." 

The impact of the crash on his belly made him fall silent, enduring the pain on his body. 

Facing his little sister, Hiiro Hiromi's powerful leap, Masa could only remain silent and accept it silently. Whether it was dodging or increasing the defense of his body was possible, but she might crash into the wall or hurt herself when she jumped into him, so he could only soften his body to accept her, bearing the pain of protecting his little sister. 

"...don't jump so suddenly like that, Hiromi." 

Patting Hiromi's head softly, Masa sighed helplessly. "What if you are hurt?" 

"I don't think so." Hiromi shook her head and said, "Even if I crash, it is the wall that will be destroyed." 

"....." 

Masa couldn't deny her words, but he said, "It is forbidden to use magic in public, okay?" 

"But Onii-sama often said that it was okay to use it as long as no one knew..." Hiromi pouted. 

"...." 

What could he say? 

While Masa's feats were amazing, he knew well that he wasn't a good example. 

Still, his little sister aside, Masa looked at his fiancee, who looked at Hiromi with an envious expression. "Airi." 

"Masa..." 

It might be because it was the first time they had been apart for so many days, so Airi missed him so much, yet her awkward personality didn't allow her to be honest. 

"Come here." 

"What's wrong?" 

Hearing his words, she obediently came to him, and his hand reached out to her and kissed her forehead softly. 

"I miss you." 

"..." 

Airi felt her heart beating so fast, and her face flushed red, then melted into his arm, ignoring his little sister, who had been clinging to him. 

Still, he had to say, it felt great to kiss her forehead, so he kissed her cheek again, which was soft and had a good scent. 

"H-Hey, we're still in the public...!" 

While Airi didn't hate such an intimate action, which showed how much Masa missed her, they were still in public. If this was private... then it might be different, though. 

Still, in her pervy mind, if the kiss on the forehead and cheek were so good, what about—

"Onii-sama! You need to watch the place and occasion!" 

Hiromi quickly reminded her older brother, who wanted to kiss his fiancee again, with a grief-stricken and angry voice. At the same time, she also felt envious since if Airi had been kissed, then why would she have only received a head pat? 

Yet, when she wanted to continue to get angry, her small body was lifted by Masa, and her forehead was kissed by Masa. 

"I miss you too, Hiromi." 

Hiromi ignored the "too" part and looked away with a blush. "S-Stop treating me like a kid!" 

'But you are one.' 

Masa rolled his eyes but then noticed Airi, who was staring at him. No, staring at Hiromi with a bit of envy somehow. "...do you want me to carry you too, Airi?" 

"N-No! I-I am not a child!" 

Still, when Airi argued, she suddenly lost her balance as if she was being lifted. "Kyaa!" Subconsciously, she clung to him to stabilize herself before she looked at him with an angry cat-like expression, but somehow, she clung even tighter. 

"I have two arms. Don't fight." 

"..." Hiromi and Airi. 

The two looked at each other and then nodded. Frankly, it was hard for them to accept each other despite Airi wishing to get close to Hiromi, but then she also understood that she had stolen her precious big brother.

Yet, even if Hiromi wasn't someone who could compete with her, whether it was due to her status or age, Airi couldn't help feeling a little anxious since she felt like Hiromi's eyes weren't the eyes of a little sister. 

If the gender was reversed, then Airi would be like a husband who couldn't accept a pervy brat who touched his wife. 

However, it had been a while since they had met Masa. 

Their parting might be less than a week, but even so, they missed him so much and decided to have a momentary peace between the two. 

Only—

"You guys... can't you do that later in a private place? Also, aren't you all too cruel to leave me with all of your luggage? Lastly, stop being intimate, okay? You are the center of attention now!" 

"Ah." 3x

When the three realized this, many stopped to look at them. No, to look at Masa, as he had removed his facemask, which made many peek at him secretly. Some of them were even bolder by trying to take his photo secretly; unfortunately, all the pictures they had taken became blurred, which frustrated them. 

"Dammit! I should learn a professional knowledge!" 

Still, the good thing is the photography class, and those photographers would have a lot of customers. 

However, the bad thing was that their friend, Kanou Shiori, was being left behind by Hiromi and Airi as they were forced to take care of all of their luggage alone. 

"We're sorry!" 2x

As Hiromi and Airi apologized repeatedly, Masa looked at Shiori and greeted her. "It's been a while, Shiori." This might be a family trip, but considering Shiori's status, who would work under his fiancee as a secretary or the Isshiki family, he knew it was normal for her to come. 

"Yes, Masa..." 

Normally, like how the friend of his fiancee should be, Shiori greeted him, yet what she didn't realize was that her feelings slightly leaked out as she gazed at him after a long time and answered him softly. 

Masa, who deeply learned about the Observation Haki, somehow could tell what one was feeling, even without asking it, yet he remained to play the role of an oblivious character since he felt that everything was too early, especially when they hadn't officially become a high school student. 

"You three must be tired, so..." 

The trip from Kanazawa to Tokyo was relatively short due to the advanced transportation technology, and their bodies were stronger than a normal human, especially Hiromi and Airi, who enhanced their physical ability with their bio-electricity, but even so, it was human nature to feel exhausted from a long trip despite just sitting down and doing nothing. 

"Do you want to go back to rest or go to a shop?" 

"Trip!" 3x

The three of them answered without hesitation. 

As expected, no matter how tired, young, or old, every woman loved to shop a lot.
