I love time travel the most!

The little girl tapped her chin with her finger, thought for a moment, and then said, "There is indeed a place I want to go."

Then, she led the way.

We soon arrived at our destination.

"...Is this the place you wanted to come to?"

Looking at the intimate couples on the street, and the vendors on both sides deliberately matching the theme, Xiaolin realized that this was clearly the dating spot where Xiaolin and Youyou had come before.

Just how unwilling are you to admit defeat?

His expression became even more helpless after Huihui came to a particular stall. Yes, it was the stall where Youyou got the Winter General doll.

I told you I didn't want to use a bow and arrow anymore, but here I am again...

"Hey buddy, you're here again!"

The stall owner was very happy to see Xiaolin.

Who doesn't like a gullible customer who's always stubborn and willing to take advantage of others? In his eyes, Xiao Lin was a perfect customer, so naturally he had to treat him with great hospitality.

However, his expression changed when he saw Huihui.

Should I call the guards?

"You're here too?!"

Kobayashi finally couldn't hold back anymore.

But now that the two are in a popular dating spot, especially at a stall that only couples go on dates, it seems they can't clear their name.

the most important is--

The stall owner leaned closer to Huihui and whispered, "Little girl, do you know? This man came here with another girl before. You'd better be careful not to run into a scumbag... It's strange, I feel like you two look a bit alike, especially your eyes, they're both red."

"Oh ho?"

The little girl gave Xiaolin a strange look, and Xiaolin shrugged to indicate that she was right; the shopkeeper was talking about Youyou.

Just as Kobayashi was trying to avoid getting involved in some inexplicable emotional entanglement and was planning to quickly get the doll he wanted to satisfy the little girl's competitive spirit, Huihui suddenly asked a strange question.

"Street vendor, who's prettier, me or that girl?"

"...Huh?" X2

Xiaolin and the stall owner were stunned for a moment.

But soon, the stall owner said, "Well, you should say you're about the same. You and that girl are both very pretty and cute."

"Tsk!"

Hearing the stall owner say that, Huihui clicked her tongue in displeasure, feeling very resentful that she hadn't been able to outdo her opponent.

but--

The stall owner glanced at her flat chest and said with a hint of regret, "If we're talking about other aspects, that girl is still a bit better."

"What did you say?!!!"

"Huihui! Don't do anything reckless!"

Kobayashi quickly stopped Huihui, who was about to pick up a bow and arrow and shoot it at the stall owner. He then pressed down on the little girl's head, apologized, and left quickly.

Chapter 287 As expected, we still need to finish with explosive magic.

"How are Senior Kobayashi and the others doing now?"

In his mansion outside Axel, Kazuma Sato stared at the pure white ceiling and uttered a strange sigh.

Xiaolin and Huihui have been gone for three hours. Since they left, the rest of the team has been gathered in the living room and hasn't left.

Honestly, he had never been so impatient before. He used to love staying home all day like a shut-in, but today, for some reason, he really wanted to go out for a walk.

Please don't overthink it.

It wasn't that I was curious about the couple's date; I just wanted to experience the local customs and culture of Axel, which were completely different from the goddesses there.

"I'm telling you, aren't you curious?"

Aqua, sprawled on the sofa in front of the fireplace, the domineering goddess who had pushed everyone else aside, addressed the group sitting on the sofa: "Don't you all want to know how those two are doing now?"

Everyone else seemed very curious, but she was the most obvious.

Oh, I misspoke.

There was another person who showed the opposite reaction, yet was equally worried.

The Crimson Demon girl, Youyou, who looked rather lonely, curled up in a ball on the large sofa, hugging her knees.

pain!

It hurts so much!

I don't know why, but whenever I see her, I always feel that she is a pitiful girl who has been abandoned by the world.

The oppressive atmosphere was suffocating!

Kazuma Sato quickly comforted her, saying, "Don't worry so much, Yuu. It's just a trip out. Please trust Kobayashi-senpai, he won't do anything strange."

"What? Strange things? Please explain in detail, what do you mean by 'strange things'?!"

As if a strange switch had been flipped, Darkness, her face flushed, pressed Sato Kazuma for answers.

At other times, he would have been happy to reprimand the perverted female knight, but right now he just wanted to ask this stupid problem child to stop causing trouble!

"long?"

"...Eh? N-no, it's okay, I'm fine. I'm not worried about Megumin, you know. We're competitors, there's no reason for me to care about her. Besides, Megumin has her own social life, and I have no right to interfere. And..."

The startled red demon girl hurriedly waved her hands and tried to explain herself, but her long-winded explanation and deliberate attempt to change the subject completely revealed her true thoughts.

Just how much does he like Huihui?

Kazuma Sato couldn't help but complain.

Aqua puffed out her chest and proudly declared, "I believe in Kobayashi! He's my most prized follower, so I believe in him!"

“Excessive explanations just feel like they don’t want to believe it.” Sato Kazuma sighed, his eyes lifeless, and said, “Me too. I also believe in Kobayashi-senpai. He wouldn’t hurt that chuunibyou little girl.”

"What? Devastation? Explain in detail what you mean by devastation?!"

The perverted knight only listens to the part she wants to hear.

Kazuma Sato couldn't help but roar, "That's enough! Stop making things worse!"

Youyou's expression grew even more forlorn.

And the other side.

"What are you thinking? What if you hurt the stall owner, you idiot, Huihui!"

Kobayashi is torturing the little girl.

He clenched his hands and pressed them against Huihui's temples, rubbing them back and forth forcefully, making her scream in pain.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Let go! Let go!!"

Huihui's eyes welled up with tears from the pain.

At the same time, she defended herself, saying, "This is not my fault at all! It was clearly that person, that person, who mocked me first! That was a complete provocation! If he dares to provoke me, I will end his life!"

"Are you from the Demon King's army? Why are you so violent?!"

Kobayashi used even more force.

Indeed, the stall owner's words were a bit offensive, but even so, it's going too far to pick up a bow and arrow and shoot someone.

"Have some common sense, you idiot!"

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!!"

The little girl screamed loudly.

They made conspicuous gestures on the street until pedestrians looked at them strangely, at which point the two stopped their playful antics and walked away side by side in perfect unison.

Arriving at the fountain in the center of the street, I sat on a bench in the corner of the circular plaza.

The little girl took out her notebook and started writing and drawing.

Kobayashi asked instinctively, "What are you doing, Megumin?"

Huihui said without looking up, "I'm writing down what happened on our date today, and I'll recount it to Youyou when we get back."

Just how unwilling are you to admit defeat?

Is it really necessary to go to such lengths just to outdo Youyou?

...He wouldn't ask such a question.

Some people are capable of doing outrageous things to avoid losing face in front of their opponents, so this level is nothing special.

Huihui raised her head, her large, scarlet eyes looking at Xiaolin, and said, "I don't have a doll yet."

"……what do you want to say?"

"Puppet. That mecha puppet, Kobayashi, go and shoot it down for me."

To retract my earlier statement, the silly little girl's stubbornness was a bit excessive.

Do you have to do everything just like Youyou? Does that mean you have to wear the same clothes later, and then I'll say, "You're so sexy?"

But it looks like if he doesn't go, the little girl will throw a tantrum again.

He sighed helplessly.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Kobayashi stood up from the bench and walked towards the stall he had just been standing at.

The mecha plush toy that Huihui mentioned is a cute version of the mecha that Kobayashi piloted when he intercepted the Mobile Fortress Destroyer. It has lost its sleek, slender shape, enlarging its limbs and body, and stuffing it with cotton, making it look incredibly adorable.

The process of obtaining it is too painful.

"What's going on? What exactly is going on? Does that mean I'm useless without skills? Is that it? Is that really true?"

Xiaolin slumped onto a bench, questioning the meaning of life.
