Valentine's Day in a Parallel World
In a certain small town, the atmosphere was currently very lively. Hajime, Yue, and Shea had stopped for a short rest, and were curious about the sweet, somewhat excited mood that filled the town.
“Hey, is there a festival or something today?’
“Hm? You don't know? Today's Fris day. Come on, you've got to know what it is. You even have two lovely ladies following you around.’
The person Hajime had asked was a bald, macho, flower salesman. It appeared today was a celebration most people knew about. When he pressed for details, Hajime learned that Fris day was a day for people to confess to their crushes. The reason it was called Fris day was because of the abundance of white fris flowers everywhere. It was said that if someone confessed with a fris flower and the other person accepted, the couple would be together forever. As Hajime looked around, he noticed there were a lot of people selling white flowers, and plenty of young guys and girls were gathering around them.
“I see. While it's not exactly the same, it's basically like Valentine's...’ “Hm? Valentine's?’
“What's that?’
Yue and Shea spoke up. Reminiscing about his home world, Hajime explained Valentine's Day to the two of them.
Valentine's Day, a time where warriors go forth to do battle. The hot guy sorcerers usually dominate that day. For Hajime, it had been a day he'd spent running away last year. Had he been caught, he knew what hell awaited him in school.
“Hm... So Hajime, there was a girl who confessed to you that day. What was her name and what did she look like? Go on, tell me.’
“Eeeeeh you have another lover, Hajime-san? How many dozens of women came before me, I wonder?’
“Can you two at least watch your mouth in public?’ Hajime backed away as the seductive vampire princess and the crying worthless rabbit bore down on him. Phrases like, “How many dozens of women came before me,’ would definitely get misunderstood.
“Oh my, what a wonderful battlefield of love.’
“It looks like that guy over there's a real playboy.’
“He just toys with girls' feelings and throws them away when he's done with them! What a heartless brute!’
“Don't meet his gaze! You'll get pregnant!’
The onlookers all started voicing their opinions. His mouth twitching, Hajime hurriedly tried to flee to somewhere more private. He picked Yue and Shea up, then carried them to the closest inn.
