Chapter 130
Translator: Reflet
This was a two-fold crisis .
Youran as Director of the New Moon and Youran as a female were being targeted at the same time . If it were only one of the two, she could endure it, but if it came down to both of them, she definitely wasn’t having it .
This was a situation in which both the public and private versions of her; everything was liable to be stolen .
Youran was not the type of girl to sit and wait for death, and in this situation she had neither the experience nor the quarreling nature to remain calm .
Dodging, she aimed for the door she had come through and broke out into a run .
The only thought occupying her mind was that she must run away .
「You’re no fuuun」
Instantly, Saekusa Tsukumo’s smile was right in front of her .
His steps had revolved around her in a circle .
Her shoulders shivered again . Though his face was in order, it looked to Youran’s eyes like a disgusting smile .
「There are a lot of things that I want to discuss with and tell New Moon-sama, and there are also things I want to ask . 」
「I-I have nothing to do with this! I have nothing to talk with you about . 」
「Has New Moon-sama eaten parent-child bowl soba before? It’s soba with chicken meat and egg-bound soup on top . It was being sold earlier at a major convenience store, but it’s a commodity that disappears in a ridiculously short time . 」
「W-What are you……」
Tsukumo had suddenly spoke up, and his meaningless words further fanned Youran’s fear .
「I really liked that . They were not placed on rice, but soba . Putting the parent-child style in a field that’s generally different; reminds me of an attractive mother and daughter dropped suddenly from happy everyday life into debt hell, presented to the yakuza . 」
「Prese――」
「And then, it disappeared from the storefront, so I thought to make it myself and had Chan Suu bake it, but as it was it had no art, and I thought to set things up on a shabby stage of an even newer element . You know, isn’t there the type of person who shines when they’re being tormented? So not rice or even noodles; I thought to put them on bread . So what do you think happened afterwards? That’s right; it became a sandwich, and when I coated it with ketchup and margarine and put it on top of the roasted bread it was super delicious . Incidentally, is New Moon-sama still a virgin?」
「W-Why are you asking that question?」
「See, I can emit the white part, but I was thinking of having New Moon-sama emit the red part . Ah, well, maybe I’ll have New Moon-sama’s okaa-sama emit the white part . It wouldn’t be half bad to scatter New Moon-sama’s virginity after she becomes able to lactate . 」
「――」
She cowered, feeling madness from the man in front of her .
Whether that was an act or his true nature was no longer clear . Not only his words, but his pupils were gradually gathering madness and replacing the once-rational person .
He had pupils that could not be anything other than that of a madman .
「――っ」
Swinging her right arm, she released a backhand .
Her wrist was grabbed, and this time she brandished her left hand .
But that was grabbed too .
Youran was constricted like a vicegrip .
「Sorry New Moon-sama, I can’t afford to be slapped right now . I decided to only be okay with getting slapped for breaking a substitute promise . 」
「Please let go――Let go . 」
「Yeah, using those words is also good, New Moon-sama . Gives me shivers . I wonder if New Moon-sama’s okaa-sama speaks the same way . 」
「――You little」
Both her hands grabbed, Youran kicked her legs up . That just met Tsukumo’s groin area from the front .
Tsukumo reeled in agony . Youran took that opportunity to fling her hands to free herself, dashing out from the room .
Moving along the windowless corridor, she ran into the staircase .
Descending one floor down, she sprinted along another long hallway .
「Haa, haa, haa……」
Her breath became heavier in the smallest amount of time . She desperately tried to escape, disheveling her long twintails .
Fifth floor corridor, staircase .
Fourth floor corridor, staircase .
Third floor corridor, staircase .
The spiral staircase that took up the whole building made not only invasion, but escape difficult as well .
「Kyaa!」
Suddenly, she stumbled and fell, the impact causing her to begin to slide along the floor .
The twintails became undone, spreading across her shoulders .
On all fours, she rose up, furtively looking behind .
Had not chased after her, he still hadn’t .
「Gotta run away……」
A strained voice leaked out of her mouth .
That was no longer Director of the New Moon or Youran .
It was not the noble woman, nor was it the lighthearted girl .
It was like a guiltless girl being chased down by a masked man with a chainsaw .
Panicking, Youran had nothing on her mind but running . Desperately raising her body up, she again aimed for the staircase and began to run .
Second floor corridor, staircase .
Having escaped three stages and racing down in one go, she simply focused on running away .
Reaching the first floor, as if waiting for her, the thick shutter slowly rose .
For a moment, she felt she had seen a light there, and embraced hope .
Normally……The hope that she would never have .
Even so, she dashed into it .
Like a lemming dashing off a cliff .
「New Moon Sama」
「――Ngh！」
Startled, she quickly braked .
Somehow, Tsukumo had appeared beyond the entrance .
Not able to stop, she crashed into her opponent . She rebounded away and fell on her backside .
Tsukumo leisurely entered the building . The shutter went down, letting out an electrical “gigigi” sound .
The falling shutter, and the disappearing light .
She desperately tried to escape, crawling toward the entrance .
「Can’t let you do thaaat」
「Kyaa!」
Her hair grabbed, her neck was jerked back .
During that time, the shutter completely closed .
Despair attacked Youran, and the bit of the outside she had seen――the difference between the hope seen and the despair tightened her heart .
「Let’s go back . Okaa-sama’s going to arrive soon, after all . 」
Tsukumo said, dragging Youran by her hair .
The path that she had desperately tried to reach was taken back, and hope became far .
Passing through the long corridors and coming out of the decorative elevator, he had her stand before the staircase .
Staircase .
To Youran now, that looked like a straight path to despair .
If they went all the way up here then they would not return again . That seemed like the sickle of hell opening its mouth widely .
「……Let go . 」
Youran softly opened her mouth . Tsukumo reacted to the voice that was squeezed out of the bottom of her stomach .
「Oh, did you ready yourself, New Moon-sama?」
「Let go . 」
She said the same words with a different tone .
As if he were overpowered or had an opinion about that, Tsukumo released her hair that he had been grabbing .
Falling to the floor, Youran who had been dragged silently stood up .
Looking at the staircase, then the shutter, then at Tsukumo .
Roughened hair and a quiet gaze .
「I can’t escape, huh」
「Nah, of course not . I have no intention of letting you . 」
「I see, I get it . 」
「Ohhh, so that means――」
「Indeed, I have readied myself . It seems that there is no point struggling any further . 」
She said, quietly closing her eyes .
Behind her eyelids, various scenery came and went .
Her life thus far, like a revolving lantern, flowed through there in a moment .
Lastly, the form of one boy floated .
Seeing that face lastly, Youran opened her eyes .
「……Give me my hairclip . 」
She said quietly, and Tsukumo picked it up handing it to her . She accepted it, slowly tying it back into pretty twintails like some sort of ritual .
「That hairstyle is also good, New Moon-sama, just like――」
It seemed that Tsukumo was saying something, but it didn’t enter her ears . Her eardrums were picking up sound, but her mind did not recognize it .
Raising her hands, she fastened the twintails .
A smile rose; one of self-depreciation .
「New Moon-sama?」
As if realizing something at last, Tsukumo said with a puzzled voice .
Amongst the faintly opened teeth of the mouth, the tongue was softly added in .
If she would be humiliated like this, then she might as well――
「Just――」
Tsukumo frantically tried to halt . He aimed a cold smile at her .
（Once more……I wonder if you wanted to be pulled tight . ）
Thinking that in the heart, closing their eyes, and putting power into the jaw .
「You must not!」
「――ngh」
That moment, her voice dissolving her resolve sounded out . Not heeding any physical obstacles, the fairy had slipped past the wall and appeared .
「That’s bad; you must not do that sort of thing!」
「You……」
「Taiyou-chan! They’re here!」
Perplexed at the suddenly appearing fairy, she who had been able to stop Youran went in the direction of the day after next, letting out a loud voice .
Dogohhn!
The building violently shook, the next moment .
Through the floor where Youran and Tsukumo stood, concrete telephone poles had pierced through the wall like spears .
