[Chapter 49] Date A Blonde

I don't remember going to an amusement park in ages, so I'll make this up.

Also, fuck character development.

–––

As the trio walked through the sea of people, they found their first area of attraction.

"This is new..." Arti murmured as she looked at the thing in front of her. It was a large robotic man holding a glass hammer. Giant metal stairs

led inside it, and big, bulky men watched the line of people waiting to enter it.

"We'll enter this?" Jeanne asked before they directly skipped the line and sat on the front seat, the glass before them.

The two blondes felt their powers being played with by the boy, but they didn't care. What was he doing? Well, with their current power level, no way could the duo enjoy this toy.

So, he lowered it to that of a human. He didn't reduce his because he couldn't get surprised anyway.

After enough people got in, the operator made an announcement. "Please fasten your seatbelts." Hearing him, those hadn't quickly secured it.

Then, the compartment started moving. It started slowly at first, then–

"AAAAAAAAA–!"

–It got faster. Much faster. The robotic man that was holding the glass hammer lifted it up and down, the sounds of it moving being deafened by the screams.

It wasn't all that exciting to him, but to the two girls next to him, it seemed to have made an impact.

As the metallic man lifted the hammer and extended his hands holding it, The blondes next to him held his free shoulders.

Umu. All according to the plan.

"Alex, give me my po–" Before Arti could finish her sentence, the robotic male started spinning. Fast.

"How is this legal?!" Jeanne loudly asked as she held the chair and his body for her dear life.

Artoria agreed with her silently, her hands tightly gripping the boy's wrist. So tight, in fact, that a red mark appeared on it. She didn't notice it, though.

The thing continued spinning, the screams deafening Alex's ears. Eventually, his hands moved to hold the duo tightly.

His hand pressed the light blue hoodie of Jeanne, letting him firmly hold her.

As it was winter, they were dressed in attire to fit with the crowd.

""""AAAAAA!"""" He looked back to the crowd one last time before closing his eyes and enjoying the company of the girls next to his shoulders. Who cared about some adrenaline when he could just relax.

...

"This is a...?" Artoria inspected the weird compartment in front of her. "A roller coaster?"

"A futuristic one." Alex nodded before entering the white train-like object. "Come in." He led them by their hands to a seat. "This one will be a lot... Stronger than before." He stated before leaning

"Stronger than a big robot swinging with a hammer?" Jeanne asked sarcastically before leaning on his shoulder. "You better hold me tight."

"Of course."

The couple next to them that was sitting with their teenage kid looked at the trio. How convenient that this place had three seats next to each other as well.

It must've been some sort of divine intervention.

"Everyone, please fasten your seatbelts." Alex didn't move after hearing the voice as he had already done so. Because of that, he nestled comfortably between the blondes.

Such a blessed day.

Suddenly and without warning, the white roller coaster took off. It was fast, and if invisible fields didn't keep the people attached to their seats, they all would've flown to the hair and turned to meat paste.

That didn't mean that the pressure wasn't on them, though. Everyone held onto each other and the metal bars, the adrenaline causing them to breathe fast.

While the rest of the passengers were having the time of their lives, Alex was busy making sure the blondes next to him didn't fly off.

Perhaps the magnetic fields didn't work so well on supernaturals after all. Alex noted this in his mind as he manipulated the air around them to push them down.

This caused the blondes' hair to become a mess, Artoria resembling someone who wore red clothes.

How cute.

Resisting his primal urges to hug her, Alex held them tight until the rest of the ride.

...

"I'm never going out with you again." Jeanne sighed as she fixed her hair up. Alex watched the skilled movements of the saint with fascination.

He was surprised at how easily she was able to do it.

Shaking his head to empty it, he fixed Artoria's hair with skilled movements resembling the blonde saint.

He had to often take care of Jack, so he knew how to tie them. Not only that, sometimes the girls wanted to be spoiled, and who was he if he couldn't even tie their hair?

"Done." He spun the blonde king to check her hair from the front. "You look great."

"Thanks," Arti replied. She then looked up at him, meeting his eyes. "Want to take a walk alone?"

Alex looked back to Jeanne, who had come next to him. She gave the boy a big hug before releasing him. "I gave a promise to Jack, so I need to go now." She took out a green crystal from her pocket. "Bye-bye. Come home soon!" And she disappeared.

The blue-eyed boy turned to look at the blonde. "Sure." She took his hand before leading him somewhere.

...

"So... What did you want to talk about?" Alex asked as they walked through the empty streets. As someone with the Divinity of souls, he could feel the emotions of Artoria.

She seemed nervous and uncertain. What a combination.

"I––"

Seeing her nervous look, the boy stopped his pace. He had long known about her feelings that had developed a few years ago. "This took a long time."

"Huh?" She looked up at him.

"Artoria," the boy began. "You're very easy to read after about, uh, 60 decades together."

"Don't tell me..."

"I feel like a generic harem protagonist right now." Alex sighed. "Whatever." (A/N: You're one, though.)

"Wait–!" Artoria knew what this movement meant. She had watched her Master do it to Eresh and Nero enough to know.

"Mmmf!"

...

[A few days later.]

"Blue Mommy?" Jack looked at Artoria, who was of the same height as her.

"I suppose." Artoria nodded even if she felt uncomfortable.

"Hmm..." Jack looked at Alex that was cooking food for the two blondes until they were satisfied. It was supposed to be a punishment, yet this bastard could just give himself serotonin.

So, even though on the outside he seemed expressionless, he was enjoying it inside.

Such was the power of creation.

"So complicated." Jack didn't understand what was happening, so she chose to continue eating.

"Indeed."

...

[Time skip because I can't be bothered to write this part]

A few weeks later, Alex could be seen playing with a white fox. "Who's a good girl?"

"Wuu!"

"You are!"

As the duo played chase with space-time powers, three blondes watched them from afar.

Behind them, a white-haired girl with green eyes was playing with a black-haired boy.

"Come here!" Jack shouted as she jumped towards the black-haired kid. "I'll catch you this time, Letty!"

The black-haired kid was Letos, who had decided on using his human form for once.

Now, he regretted it deeply.

"Stop chasing me, stupid!" He dodged her while running around the three blondes. "Stop it!"

"No!"

Letos cursed his Master for his misery as usual.

"Okay, how about we talk it ou–!" Let couldn't finish his sentence as the white blur crashed on him. "What are you doing!?"

"Hehe." Jack giggled as she looked up to Alex. She then noticed the small white-haired girl floating on his right.

"It is quite... Interesting to see you in this position, brother." Lux descended next to Letos. "How miserable."

"Ugh." The black-haired kid struggled. "Help me."

"Hehe." Lux giggled as she flew away. "No."

"Stop!"

Ignoring Letos' cries, Lux sat on her Master's shoulder. "Let's go, Master!"

Alex looked down at the miserable Letos and the happy Jack. "Yeah, let's go."

"Help me!" Letos cried out, yet his voice went ignored.

...

Artoria looked at the guy who had managed to break through the several barriers set around her heart. He was currently talking to Nero and Eresh, who had accepted her.

She didn't like to think about the process, though. It was embarrassing. Her cheeks reddened before she forced it down.

'Be strong, Artoria.' She started walking to her Master before a portal swallowed her up.

Not long after, she found herself in between two blondes and atop her Master's lap. "Huh?"

"Let's play a game, Arti." Eresh threw the blonde king a controller, causing her hands to move and grasp it tightly.

"Umu. This emperor lets you play a game with her." Nero nodded as she leaned on Artoria's shoulder. "Wanna bet?"

"Uhm... Sure?" Artoria answered unsurely.

"Great. The loser will have to do *whispers.* Umu?"

"Th–Tha–! You know what, fine." Suddenly, Artoria's motivation to win doubled.

"Haha! That's the spirit!" Nero started giggling.

Alex, who had heard their interaction thanks to his superhuman hearing, spoke up. "What if I win?"

"We both will do it." Nero suddenly said, earning a nod from Alex.

"Great." Alex booted up his controller. "If you cheat, your ass will be in danger." He said just to make sure.

The opportunity was too big to ignore.

"Hehe." Nero laughed as the game opened. "We'll see whose ass will be in danger shortly."

The blondes lost to the white-haired boy.
