“Uh…”
After being told that by Hisaaki Misaki, Hiiragi Ayako was speechless.
Actually, it was nothing special. Besides being the school nurse, Hiiragi Ayako also ran a used bookstore and 喫茶店 outside of school.
However, even though she was the owner, she only opened for business on weekends and after school on weekdays because she had to work (slack off) at school.
Also, if she saw someone she clicked with, the store could temporarily serve as a hotel, offering rooms for others to rest.
Business had been sluggish lately, and she was also supporting a freeloader.
If her salary wasn't high, she would have already shut down the shop if she relied solely on its business.
Well, that's just talk. After all, her family was considered a prominent one in Japan, and she was, in a way, a noble daughter.
After all, the "On-Horse Spear Combat" competition requires a large investment in training, equipment, and horses, which is one of the reasons why ordinary people are discouraged from participating.
A full set of knight's armor for competition alone is expensive, not to mention the cost of a good horse.
Therefore, this is also why most of the students in this school come from wealthy or noble families.
"Misaki!"
"Hmph, I'm getting back at you for teasing me earlier!"
"You little brat, take this～"
"Ah?! Hahaha—"
It was clear that although they seemed to be arguing, Luo Chen could see that the two girls, who were now playfully tumbling on the sofa, had a great relationship. It was simply a test of his composure.
It was nothing, since Hiiragi Ayako's actions would, at the very least, be dazzling.
Anyway, Luo Chen, who was sitting on the side, now deeply understood what it meant to be "dazzled"!
Not to mention, the visual effect was absolutely pleasing to the eye, making him reluctant to interrupt their playful antics.
Fortunately, he had been through a lot lately. Otherwise, facing such a stunning scene, he might not have been able to withstand the test.
After all, this was a double dose of beauty!
"Hahaha! I give up, I give up! Chen Jun～save me～"
"Humph, now you know how powerful I am?"
With the two girls playing, Luo Chen, as a man, couldn't really get involved.
Hisaaki Misaki, who had been laughing until she was about to cry, finally found an opportunity to break free and hid behind Luo Chen.
Seeing this, Hiiragi Ayako finally let go of the pink-haired girl, realizing that Luo Chen was present.
But the beautiful doctor just smiled at him, then adjusted her clothes and rolled her eyes at the mischievous Hisaaki Misaki.
"Ahem～It's almost time to go off duty. Misaki, don't forget your part-time job later."
"Eh? But I'm injured～"
"You know that, don't you? Don't worry, I've already put on medicine, it's fine to move around a little."
"Oh～"
"Chen Jun, how about you? Do you want to try some of Misaki's and my cooking at the store?"
"Sure."
"…."
Originally, Luo Chen just wanted to go out and explore.
But after discovering that this world also had "The Tales of the Girl Knight," he immediately changed his plans.
So, faced with Hiiragi Ayako's invitation, he naturally nodded in agreement.
Thus, soon after, he and Hisaaki Misaki waited for a while in the infirmary and then left Wenford Academy with Hiiragi Ayako.
Helenz Hill is an ancient town known for its knight culture.
Therefore, throughout the streets, one could see buildings, goods, activities, and so on, related to or in the style of knight culture.
Although the town's population wasn't large, due to it being afternoon, there were still people coming and going on the streets.
Hold～
As the three of them walked out of the school gate and down the sidewalk among the crowd...
Whether it was etiquette, concern about getting separated, or worry that he wouldn't know the way...
In any case, as Luo Chen was observing the local customs of this ancient town, the next second he felt his arm being held by a soft hand.
And that wasn't all. Before he could turn his head or speak, the next second, the other arm encountered the same situation.
Needless to say, the ones holding his arms were naturally Hiiragi Ayako and Hisaaki Misaki.
One kept a distance, while the other pressed her arm directly against his.
The former was, of course, Hiiragi Ayako, and she was also the first one to grab his arm.
As for Hisaaki Misaki, she probably saw what Hiiragi Ayako did and couldn't resist doing the same, and she even seemed more intimate.
"This way, come with me～I'll lead the way."
"Chen Jun～Don't get lost, okay!"
"…"
Seeing Luo Chen looking at them, the two girls thought he didn't know the way.
After confidently holding his arm, Hiiragi Ayako smiled and led him in the direction of the 喫茶店.
While Hisaaki Misaki tightly hugged his other arm, as if worried that he would get lost.
To this, Luo Chen just nodded and didn't say anything.
A combination of handsome men and beautiful women attracts attention wherever they go, let alone the sight of two beautiful women holding the arm of one handsome guy.
But for those who were watching, Luo Chen calmly ignored them, confidently facing the situation of being surrounded by beautiful women, even interacting with them playfully from time to time.
Even during the embrace, he wasn't nervous or embarrassed like other guys.
Instead, he took the lead, even when holding Hiiragi Ayako.
He wasn't intimidated, but instead, he "turned the tables," acting as if he were on a date with the two girls.
Finally, the three of them arrived at an old bookstore and 喫茶店 called "Sweet Time."
