Chapter 5.2
Felia's date
- Izarick-sama, I'm ready! (Felia)
Felia came down the stairs at high speed, she wears a cute yellow one-piece dress with green embroidery, this one came down to her knees. I was a bit impressed to see her like this.
- Pretty…! (Izarick)
I couldn't help saying that, surely my face was somewhat flushed ...
-… Are you sure to ask me for this as a compensation for `` that '', if you wanted me to accompany you on a walk around the city, you just had to tell me and I would gladly accompany you. (Izarick)
I came to if I noticed that Felia was approaching me and I managed to speak normally.
-Seriously, well that doesn't matter anymore, then, we're leaving Izarick-sama. (Felia)
-Well, let's go out then. (Izarick)
With that Felia and I left Paul's house side by side.
The truth is that today I planned to go out for a while around the center to do a little hunting and body exercise, I also wanted to put into practice some new ideas and see how effective the bicycle, skateboard and skates would be in a fight ... but those plans were canceled when Felia asked me or, rather, forced, to keep her company on her tour of the city.
As we walked through the extensive front garden in the direction of the exit, I could feel strongly as three stabs came from the house.
I didn't turn around because I already knew who those glances were from.
Third person narration.
Located on the 10th floor of Paul's mansion, three pretty girls ages 10-11. They all watched through the window as a duo walked through the front lawn of the mansion heading for the exit.
- That's not fair Feli! Using your request to ask to have a whole day with nii-sama alone! (Sora)
- Very good move Felia, I give you my respects for your display of good intellect! But we can do that too! (Violet)
- It's true, it's true, starting today we will hold a raffle and whoever wins it will be able to go out on a date alone with the teacher!
- YES! (All present)
With that the trio of girls began to agree on what the draw would be.
Felia's point of view
-Izarick-sama Where would you like to go or what would you like to do first? (Felia)
- Are you asking me? You are supposed to choose to be the one who invited me. (Izarick)
- Seriously? Well, it's good that you check with Pel-san and Paul-san about the city and the places they could visit. (Felia)
With that, I took out of the small bag that I carried a free one and began to show Izarick-sama the list and plan for today that I was making throughout the night. Of course I didn't say that last.
Izarick-sama looked at the free for a few seconds and then fixed his gaze on the blue sky, put his hand on his chin and was silent for several seconds. He always gets like that when he is deep in thought.
When he finished with his thoughts, we began a dialogue regarding the plan of the day as we walked towards the city since we already left the territories of Paul's mansion.
After discussing for a long time, the plan was modified a bit and in my opinion it was perfect. The plan consisted of the following structure.
-Walk through the commercial sector visiting different stores until lunchtime
-to have my hunting food ready for lunch outdoors
-distract ourselves with some games or whatever else comes out at the moment
-Stay in the city until sunset begins
-create the best romantic scene for …… *********************
Of course, only I know the last secret part of the plan.
I'LL MAKE THIS A SUCCESS!
.
.
.
We entered the business district.
And immediately we blend into the crowd of people as if we were one of the bunch.
We started walking while observing the various stalls that were lined up side by side on the huge, long street.
- Izarick-sama look at that! (Felia)
-Yes, yes, just don't get lost among this large number of people. (Izarick)
I couldn't help but run away while keeping an ear on Izarick-sama's words. But the things that I saw in the stalls really caught my attention, necklaces, bracelets, many kinds of accessories.
I tried one or the other and showed them to him, I even made some striking poses while saying `` -how I look Izarick-sama''He looked at me for a couple of seconds and then covered his mouth with his hand while he seemed to be laughing.
In response to that I puffed up my cheeks in a pouty sign while saying "-do not make fun of my Izarick-sama" somewhat annoyed by that reaction. He stopped and approached me.
-I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but I couldn't help it, after all it doesn't matter what you wear, you will always look very pretty. (Izarick)
-e-really ?! (Felia)
-yes. (Izarick)
I put on a small smile while I was able to feel my face heat up, I was sure blushing. Izarick-sama started stroking my head and then proceeded to look at those accessories for several seconds and then select a set of 5 bracelets, a necklace, two bracelets and a ring.
I keep all that in the magic bag, or so it seemed at first glance ... I don't know how to say it, but I could feel like a strange sensation, it was as if he opened the door to a different space or something like that ... maybe it was just my imagination .
Izarick-sama approached me and handed me a small bracelet that consisted of: a rope made of a flexible material that was tied double and has a small accessory in the shape of a star with the number 2 written in a strange way ... yes I don't remember badly, Izarick-sama said that he was called "Roman" (II) is a strange word.
He put it on my left wrist himself, even though I made an enormous effort not to jump for joy, but in my mind… I don't know how to explain what I felt and was doing right now.
-you look great. (Izarick)
- He has! Thank you very much Izarick-sama, I will treasure it forever! (Felia)
-I'm glad about that, here is the payment, ma'am. (Izarick)
-Thank you very much for your purchase young man, have a good day on your appointment. (Saleswoman)
-Felia, let's continue. (Izarick)
-Okay Izarick-sama. (Felia)
I felt very embarrassed the moment the lady selling the accessories said that Izarick-sama and I are on a date. Although that's clearly my goal ... for some reason it feels very embarrassing when said out loud.
But…
Didn't he deny that we're on a date ... could Izarick-sama ... think about me too ... that way?
I couldn't help but blush as I followed him and tried to hide the blush from my face.
Izarick's point of view
- AAAAHH hell! Because the heck I'm acting this way ... this is definitely like being on a damn date ... I fell into a very good trap ... I think I'm very weak in this kind of situation ... but I'm not going to deny that it feels good, relax from once in a while ... (Izarick)
I had this thought as I watched as Felia made a futile effort to hide her flushed face.
I put on a smile as I walked beside him.
We continued our walk through the business district, visiting each stall that Felia was interested in or something that piqued my interest.
We even went to several stores of different types, where for the first time, I could see how one of the girls who has accompanied me during these last years, has been able to behave like a girl.
His smile, his joy, each of his gestures and movements represented life, which I have not seen until now.
We arrived at a store where they sell clothes, Felia tried on many types of clothes that are usual in this world. They certainly fit him very well.
Every time he tried one on he would tell me `` -Izarick-sama, how do I look? ´´ with a voice that caused a certain bewilderment in my brain about how cute it sounded and especially how it looked making that expression so kawaii.
I answered in the most honest way possible `` -t-fits you very well '' she answered that with a simple smile.
We continued with the tour until it was time for lunch.
-I think I'm getting hungry, let's go find a place to eat. What do you think of Felia? (Izarick)
-In regards to that Izarick-sama, I have already prepared lunch. (Felia)
- Seriously? Well done Felia, and since it will be a home cooked meal, it is best to eat outside. (Izarick)
-Then we should go to the district `` Garden '' which is located to the southwest, according to Pel this is a nice place to rest and relax. (Felia)
-OK, but this is more or less a 3 to 4 hours walk, it is very far. (Izarick)
- ... I think you're right ... it would be best to eat right here. (Felia)
-Don't worry, you are with me, I have a means of transport that will get us there in less than 1 hour. (Izarick)
Take Felia's hand and lead her to an alley where fewer people meet. I made a small flame form on my finger, then this went from being a red flame to a blue flame, and then it became steady like a blowtorch. Felia was surprised by the sudden change in color of the fire. Without paying much attention to it, on the ground I began to draw a magic circle invented out of nowhere to be part of my improvised theater.
Once finished, I put my hands 5cm away from the circle and started pouring mana and creating a [Gate magic] the size and shape of the circle.
-… translation magic? You are amazing Izarick-sama! (Felia)
From the [Gate magic] a bicycle appeared, although it was still a BMX, it had a footrest on the rear wheel. Cancel the magic once the bike appeared and explain to Felia what it was.
This was very surprised by her and even more so when I told her that she was the first person to whom I showed it and also the one who would mount her with me.
I got on the BMX ...
-Izarick-sama, what is your name? (Felia)
- the name of what? (Izarick)
-the name of this `` bicycle '' (Felia)
- Is it that it should have a name? (Izarick)
- Well of course! This was the first one that you made true, so obviously you should have one. (Felia)
- ... then let me see ... how is a "she" it should be a female name ... how about "Anger" How does it sound? (Izarick)
-Anger, Anger sounds fantastic and especially it suits him, since it is red and silver. (Felia)
So the first model of a BMX bike I made was christened 'Anger' and now that it has a name, I think I should later make a nameplate.
I instructed Felia to stand on the footrest and hold on to my shoulders as tightly as possible so she doesn't fall. Activate [Boots] and [Multiple vision] the second was for safety so that I did not collide with someone or something and there could be future injuries.
I pedaled slowly out of the alley, passersby looked at us surprised and surprised at the same time by the mysterious means of transport we have.
-Hold on tight Felia, I'm going to increase the speed! (Izarick)
-alright… (Felia)
I hardly felt Felia's hands tighten my shoulders… I started pedaling with everything I had! `` -KYYYYYAAAAAA !!!! '' A curious scream was heard very close to my left ear and it came with Felia's soft breathing ... I think maybe she was scared by the sudden change in speed.
-Don't be scared okay, remember I'm here with you. (Felia)
I was dodging pedestrians very easily thanks to my improved senses… to be sure I haven't said it yet, but I have a new version of [Boots] that, instead of improving the physical aspects, improves my senses, sight, ears, smell, taste and touch. All this. Call this new magic [Boots Five] although it is a bit difficult to maintain.
While I kept dodging, I took the opportunity to do some tricks like a professional in the field while passing by the roofs of the houses.
And after 30min of this.
We arrived to be in front of the entrance to the Sagrada Academia. Numerous buildings that easily exceeded 15 floors were easily visible, the walls that seemed to cover the school grounds were 20m high ... but the one that stood out the most, was the building that seemed to have the first place. The center of all that place. It seemed to be a kind of castle with a modern style of the huge skyscrapers of my world.
I stared at that for a few seconds and then resumed the route I was already following.
-There is where I'm going to study in a few days. I can't help but get excited !!! (Izarick)
After another 20 minutes, we finally reached the Garden district.
But ... the truth is, I imagined a gigantic park with people of all ages walking from here to there, children playing, elderly people sitting on a bench ... A huge variety of events.
And what is happening right now in front of my eyes… is something completely different… I can only see a stupid pink color everywhere.
It's something really dazzling!
Couples, couples, Couples everywhere! Some very caramelized, giving each other flowers, eating food in their mouths, very close together ...
-… Felia, can you explain what the two of us are doing here? (Izarick)
-W-Well I-I didn't know that this is a place for w-couples, I only asked Pel, Paul and Litis about which places would be good to take a walk with Izarick-sama ... but I never imagined something like this ... (Felia)
-… (Long sigh) well, we'll leave that for later, now let's find a place to sit. (Izarick)
I said that by putting Anger back in motion and looking with my eyes for a good place where we could stay.
And after being in search for about 15min, we arrived at what seemed to be the center of this place, a huge tree with shade at its feet and between the openings in its leaves the rays of the sun can pass, without a doubt the perfect place.
Leave Anger by the thick trunk of the tree secured with a rope and help Felia prepare the place to start eating. When finished, I eagerly glanced at all the homemade food on the emerald carpet. So much variety of food that I can easily tell with my eyes that he went to great lengths to prepare precisely every detail.
- This definitely looks amazing, I can't imagine how long it took you to do it! ... at least you got to sleep last night ?! (Izarick)
- ... don't worry Izarick-sama, someone helped me with all this, I didn't do it myself. Please. (Felia)
-Okay, I'll trust your words. Now, Itadakimasu (Thank you so much for the food) (Izarick)
-Itadakimasu (Thank you very much for the food)
With that I took a plate and began to serve the food, Felia followed my example and also began to serve.
We ate quietly and in no hurry for a long time… but there came a point where Felia stopped eating and seemed to be staring at something or someone.
I followed his line of sight, and about 50m from us on a small table there is a couple feeding each other. Felia's face was covered with a slight red blush that gradually spread to her ears. I could already clearly imagine what was going through his mind right now.
-Maybe I should fulfill your wish a bit ... (Izarick)
Touch her shoulder a little to get her attention.
-Felia say `` ah '' (Izarick)
-e-eh !!! I-Izarick-sama! ?? (Felia)
-Come on just open your mouth. (Izarick)
-d-alright ... aahh ... (Felia)
Felia took the small portion of food that was on my spoon with an embarrassed expression that could easily be seen in the blush on her cheeks. He began to gently chew the food and then swallow it.
- ... I don't know how to say it, but it tastes different when Izarick-sama gives me the food ... now it's his turn to say `` ah '' (Felia)
-alright… aahh… (Izarick)
I ate the food that Felia offered me with my eyes closed so I couldn't see what kind of expression she had… and I concentrated on the taste of the food… it definitely had a subtle different taste than what I already had from this food… I don't know how explain it… it's weird.
We continued this food exchange as if we were a couple until the meal was finished.
We rested for several minutes and it was already 2:00 pm.
-Now what are we going to do? (Izarick)
-well… I would like to play with you Izarick-sama, is anything okay? (Felia)
- ... with what a game huh ... let me see ... (Izarick)
I started thinking about different possible games for a scenario like this, thanks to [multiple vision] I managed to speed up that process ...
And after about 5min of a long rambling.
Just by sheer chance, those pokemon shows where trainers used their pokemon to create an incredible performance and art show, it crossed my mind, immediately creating a new perspective and idea on how to use magic.
Originally something that was made to destroy with no other goal in mind, it could also be used to create beauty, fun, etc. Many other things that are outside of your original target.
-Felia, what do you think of an "Artist magic"? (Izarick)
- ... Artist magic? ... (Felia)
-Yes, come, it will be better if I show you. (Izarick)
I offered my hand to Felia to stand up, she took it and after walking a few meters to get away from the tree, I began with my explanation.
-Felia, do you remember when I first explained to you and Sora how magic worked? (Izarick)
-yes. (Felia)
- What did I tell you? (Izarick)
-that 90% of the success of a magic depends on how you visualize, the image that you create in your mind is life support, the other 10% are divided equally: compatibility and ability.
-Well, now, we will apply that same thing, but in a different way. (Izarick)
- Different? That magic didn't have a single use. (Felia)
-Please repeat what you said a moment ago, just the first part. (Izarick)
- 90% of the success of a magic depends on how you visualize, the image you create in your mind is life support……… OH !! (Felia)
-It seems you already got it. As I said, it all depends on how you visualize and the image you create. (Izarick)
While saying that, I closed both hands that were in front of me, after a few seconds I opened them, some butterflies made of fire are on the palms of my hand, their crimson color and the flames are so concentrated that there is no type of movement or distortion letting them look like a red porcelain butterfly ... just something more transparent.
These butterflies began to flutter in the air leaving slight traces of small red sparks. They moved in gentle circular motions above us. Seeing this, I felt that something was missing.
Put my hands together `` bang! ´´ The sound of my applause brought with it pretty snowflakes falling and the grass at our feet began to gently turn a pure white.
The created scenario that brought together the white and red color, the dance of the crimson butterflies with the soft fall of the white flakes. It was without a doubt ...
-Beautiful!! Incredible! Izarick-sama, how did he do it? What spell do I use? (Felia)
-Just use [Ice] and [Flame] it's nothing special. (Izarick)
-That can't be, they are both offensive spells ... how could he get them to transform into something like this? ... (Felia)
-You have to imagine it in the same way as you have always done, only now you are going to change its objective. Watch (Izarick)
I moved my fingers as if I was manipulating a puppet, the butterflies began to multiply until they reached at least 30. All of them circling in the air as if they were dancing to the rhythm of a beautiful melody.
- Do you want to dance ojou-sama? (Izarick)
-I don't know how to dance Izarick-sama. (Felia)
-that doesn't matter, just follow me, "as if you were a copy" (Izarick)
-… agree. (Felia)
With that I took Felia's waist and hand as she put her hand on my shoulder, so that a waltz started.
Although there was no music, in my head I began to imagine a beautiful classical melody, I closed my eyes and let my body do all the work while my mind manipulated the rhythm as if it were something natural.
- ... just relax your body, let the movements be natural like the blowing of the wind, in your mind you should only have the melody that is heard, even if it is invisible. (Izarick)
I told him that. Then little by little Felia got used to the steps causing them to be more fluid.
-I think I already have it Izarick-sama! (Felia)
-Well, well, that's amazing, you really learn fast, but. (Izarick)
- But? (Felia)
-this is just beginning. I already did my Artist magic, now it's your turn, I know very well that your specialty is ice magic, it was the one you mastered the best even though it is an ancient magic. (Izarick)
- ... I'll try, it's my first time so don't laugh. (Felia)
As we danced, Felia closed her eyes, little by little I could feel her mana begin to accumulate and her lips move as a sign of her words.
In an instant I felt like the temperature dropped suddenly, but, immediately it returned to normal, my sight was caught by Felia's feet, every place where she put her foot, was slightly frozen causing it to seem that what her feet touch it was crystallized instead of frozen.
Then I separated a bit from Felia making her take a few turns and a small pillar of ice was created at her feet, then we were moving in order to the melody with steps and pillars of ice under our feet.
Shortly after, the dance ended and without realizing it ...
A huge crowd of people, or rather couples, gathered around us.
And what ended up being formed as a monument or sculpture, was a wide spiral staircase that first rose and then descended.
We certainly received many praises and congratulations, both for the dance and for the use of magic.
- That was undoubtedly incredible, you are very talented, why not love! (Girl?)
-In truth that was something incredible, surely they are from the Sacred Academy !! (Boy ?)
- They are surely noble, you saw that incredible magic control that they have! They surely have an amazing magic teacher !! (Girl?)
-the youth of today is undoubtedly incredible (Man?)
-That's true, today's youngsters undoubtedly have a lot of talent (Woman?)
That was what we could hear from that huge crowd of people, there were even several women and girls who offered us sweets and things like that. This lasted a long time… to be precise until sunset when we were finally released.
.
.
.
- They finally released us! I never thought something like this would be so exhausting ... (Felia)
-well, I think you're right, I also feel somewhat exhausted ... although if it were like that, every day I would be extremely tired, not only physically but also mentally due to you 4 ... (Izarick)
That last part I kept to myself, after all it would be the worst mistake for me to say it.
But…
As we are nearing the end of this day, I think it is my turn to take the girl somewhere.
-Felia. (Izarick)
- Yes, Izarick-sama? (Felia)
-Since you have been taking me from one place to another all day, now it's my turn to take you to a place. (Izarick)
-And what would that place be? !! (Felia)
-You'll see when we get there. (Izarick)
We got on Anger and headed towards that place that I had in mind. By way of surprise, she sells Felia's eyes so she doesn't know where this place is.
It took us more or less 10 minutes to reach the destination.
I removed the blindfold so that she could see what is in front of her right now.
- AAAAHHH! (Felia)
- How about? (Izarick)
- This is truly amazing Izarick-sama! The view from this place is something really beautiful! (Felia)
Where we were right now is a tower on the outskirts of the Garden district, it's quite a tall place and it has an excellent view of the city.
I can see how those white or blue lights illuminate the streets, the light of the full moon is also quite beautiful.
-It really is something beautiful. (Izarick)
I couldn't help but lose myself as this sight quickly mixed with my memories of my previous world.
That was one night when I was 4 years old, we had gone out to a viewpoint and the landscape that I saw was practically the same as this ... without a doubt very nostalgic.
- ... Izarick-sama ... (Felia)
I don't know how long I've been observing the landscape, but Felia's voice took me out of the state I was in and I turned my attention to her ...
I was taken aback by what I saw… again.
His face was slightly flushed, his eyes were staring at me and I could feel a great attraction on his part. One of his small hands grabbed the sleeve of my jacket as if trying to prevent me from escaping.
-Izarick-sama ... I, I really had a lot of fun with you today, being alone with Izarick-sama as if we were a ... a couple ... without a doubt it is the best gift I have had so far ... but I ... (Felia)
Hear their words ...
It was like receiving a direct hammer blow to the temple !!
I didn't know how to try to act right now !!
I can be very smart ... but I am still a kid with a mental age of 26 or 27, who never had a single date in his life or much less a girlfriend ... definitely for me, it would be much easier to face a divine beast or something like that ...
- I can't keep hiding what I feel for you! (Felia)
A big hug came from him ...
- ... if I have to be honest ... what she felt for me was never a secret to begin with ... but I can't say that ... although this hug calmed me down a bit ... (Izarick)
That's right, that hug helped me compose myself again.
Me, I can't accept those feelings ... not yet. It is still too early for that.
-Izarick-sama, please. (Felia)
Felia closed her eyes and began to bring her face closer to me with the intention of receiving a kiss. And me.
After having an intense 3s discussion with [Multiple Vision] I managed to find the best way to resolve this situation.
-… (Felia)
Stroke his head and gently kiss his forehead, then return the hug.
-Thank you very much Felia, it really makes me very happy that you feel for me, but, I can't reciprocate your feelings, at least not now ... and for that, I don't want you to misinterpret it, I love you a lot too, but, just as I love you, I also feel the same for others. I know it sounds selfish, but this is the kind of person I am, a selfish person who only does what he wants, so I ask you, please wait, at least until I turn 18 and can confess my feelings for you and for others. (Izarick)
Her eyes widened and then tears began to shed uncontrollably. Although I don't like to see them cry, I can feel that the tears she is shedding right now are not sad but happy.
And with that ...
This appointment, which did not have any kind of problem ... came to an end ...
Now I could only hope that the other 3 were not like this ... if not really this week will be a long, long hell for my poor state of mind ...
I sighed long in my mind ...
