Chapter 324 - Dancing!

After meeting up with the other Nakano sisters, they all headed to a nearby arcade where a variety of games were displayed. 

"Ichika let's have a race!"

"Wait, don't pull me Yotsuba."

"That price looks interesting."(Itsuka)

"Wait, let me exchange some coins first."(Nino)

Yotsuba dragged Ichika into the racing arcade game while Itsuka spotted the crane game containing prices for numerous sweets and snacks, on the other hand, Nino exchanged some money for a ticket.

"How about you, Caelum-san? Are you going to play?"

"Yeah, I'll pay for myself. Just enjoy yourself."

"If you say so but I'll have extra just in case you need them."

Caelum nodded glancing to Saki who had her eye for necklace from the prices but the ticket needed was enormous while turned to Miku who looked at those toy ball things that contained a hidden price of those historical figures she always loved. 

He decided to play some games and paid for some coins. Caelum's luck is enormous and these simple games, even if they are designed for people to lose, wouldn't work on him.

"You want that, Miku?"

Miku turned to him with hope that Caelum would chuckle as it showed how eager she was to obtain the limited edition item. 

He inserted the coin then spun the knob to turn the machine then heard it working waiting in anticipation as Miku prayed for the item. 

Few seconds later, the machine expels a ball containing the toy but only by opening it would reveal what kind of item they've gotten. 

Caelum opened the toy and received a gasp from Miku who saw the item she wanted and received it while cutely holding the toy. It was just a golden keychain with a historical theme item on it.

"You actually pulled it off! Thank you, Masa-san."

"No problem, Just ask if you need anything else. Hey Saki, you've been eyeing that necklace, do you want it?"

"Ah no, it needed a lot of tickets and I Don't want to trouble yourself even more."

"Nonsense! Here let me show how I do with style."

Caelum grinned, cracking his fist before looking around like his first game and spotted shooter game. He inserted the coin then took not one but to slot wielding the two gun joystick. 

The game began and proceeded to sharply blast every zombie appearing showing his dexterity and reaction speed paired with the parallel thought processing.

Those onlookers stopped for a moment watching the show seeing his perfect execution of killing off the zombie without wasted movement.  

People think that video games are a waste of time but if implemented differently they would greatly improve people's lives. For example, Caelum benefits from the shooted game improving his concentration and reaction times. 

He was able to differentiate a zombie from some civilian that the game added as a way to lessen the player's point, however, Caelum perfectly discerned them from the rest.

"Holy crap he's beating the high score!"

"Who's this guy? It's like he could see the future or something?"

A random kid exclaimed witnessing the breathtaking play and finally facing the final boost unconsciously took a gun-fu style holding them around his ways. 

His imagination was kicking in feeling the recoil of the joystick to a real gun. He kept blasting the final boys in specific weaknesses until finally shot it to the head and stood blowing the gun as if it had smoked. 

["You got a perfect score! Your rank is 1st…"]

The machine announced while it expelled numerous tickets as the people gave a round of applause. However, it was not enough to get the Necklace.

"That was amazing, Masa-san. Now we only need a few more tickets."

"It's so cool, Masa-san. How are you able to react that fast?"

"Hahaha, I train my reflexes enough to react to a bullet not worth mentioning a predictable game."

The Gaming Scripture allowed him to instantly see every loophole of a game to be in his favor. 

He exploited them to easily predict and acquire the most of it. In other words, he was a nightmare for the owner of the arcade.

"Let's play another game since it needs more tickets."

The next game was punching one where it would measure the strength of the player's strike.

Caelum evilly smirks knowing the result inserted the coin causing the machine to drop the boxing back.

"Masa-san I think you shouldn't play this."

"Is there a reason why, Miku-san?"

"That's because he-"

She didn't have the time to finish her sentence when Caelum placed his fist into the pad inches away then took a deep breath simulating his blood and made sure to not use his Qi as the result would be devastating.

Boom!

The light tap causes the machine to flinch producing a loud bang as the onlooker's jaw drops from the force that was unleashed and the score is immeasurable. 

It took a lot of him in holding back since one mistake can destroy the machine. The ticket came pouring out, turning his head with a smile to Saki who's heart pounded even more. 

"Told you it won't be a hassle. Now I wonder what game I should play next."

"How about that one?"

Miku pointed to an alley bowling machine opting for a nod from Caelum then proceeded to do the same like his other games perfectly hitting the ball at the highest score and finally acquiring the necessary amount.

They went to the counter where Caelum exchanged all the tickets for the necklace that had a butterfly as its design. 

"Here Saki, let me help you wear it...If it's okay for me to touch you that is." 

"It's alright…"

He proceeded to wrap the necklace around her neck while making Saki's face heat up then look at the necklace then turn to Caelum giving the first smile she ever showed.

"Thank you, Masa-san for everything."

"Glad, you are happy!"

 "Hey Caerum-san, come with me!"

Yotsuba came rushing in like she always does and took Caelum to a machine for dancing. 

"Masa-kun?"

"Hello there Ichika. So you need me to dance with you guys?"

"If that's alright with you?"

"Hell yeah, I think it would be fun."

"Enough chit-chat let's dance, Caerum-san!"

Caelum stood at the dance pad with Yotsuba seeing her excitedly growing from the song which was Billie jeans. The Entertainment Scripture took over and quickly changed his mannerism, surprising them.

"Are you ready to dance, Yotsuba-chan?"

Yotsuba is taken aback by his glorious tone afterward the song begins to kick in and move in sync with the song perfectly placing his feet on the pad.

The former did not want to lose and danced along with him being lost in the rhythm of the song as the onlookers were impressed by their dance moves.

He moves his hips and shows a fierce gaze that allures every woman in the arcade but most affected by Ichika as if it is her dance movement.

'Masa-kun you are always full of surprises.'

"Did I miss anythi-...…"

Nino arrived at where they were found Caelum and Yotsuba showcasing a variety of dance movement loss in their own world unbothered by the people watching. 

"Nino, did you see the othe…"

Itsuka appeared snacking on taiyaki that turned silent upon witnessing Caelum dancing. 

Meanwhile, Caelum held Yotsuba laughing, dancing like idiots, and enjoying themselves as their fit didn't follow the game and only free dances.  

Moments later the song ended, opting them to stop while their faces filled with a wide grin. Yotsuba was slightly out of breath and Caelum was unaffected by It

"Again again! Wanna dance, Caerum?"

"Hold on, I would like to try to dance with Masa-kun too."

"If you don't mind, I want to dance as well."

"Guess I'll join."

"Might as well since you all are dancing taking turns."

"I-I want to dance as well."

"Alright! Big sis ichika if you may?"

"Fufufu with pleasure."

He took her hands and took the dance floor doing each one of them their unique music and dance.

Ichika focused more on good vibe music and Miku orchestral Japanese song while Itsuka was elegant classical music and Nino romantic dance music.

On the other hand, Saki only chose random music and was reluctant to dance but Caelum guided her while the Nakano sister cheered her on.

In the end, they had a fun time in the mall and took a snap of a photo to remember the moment.
