Chapter 1843: April Fool"s Day Extra Ch: [t.i.tle omitted]
I got home late today and today’s chapter ended up being a bit short, so I’ll extend April Fool’s Day and continue updating its story tomorrow.
: The content was the same as last year, so I made some adjustments.
One afternoon, I was relaxing in my room reading a magazine when suddenly, without warning, a person dropped onto the sofa in my room.
No, even though I’m the one saying this, I also don’t really understand what I’m saying, but seriously, someone suddenly appeared out of thin air and fell onto the sofa. Did someone come to visit me with Teleportation Magic? That said, that’s a strange way to teleport…… As I had such a thought in mind, I got up and approached the sofa, and saw a woman in a sailor uniform holding her waist in pain.
[Fuooohhh…… My back…… I hit my lower back. Also, I’m teleported indoors this time?]
[……If it isn’t Serious-senpai……. Why are you suddenly in my room?]
The person who looks a lot like Shea-san, holding her waist and groaning in pain, is Serious-senpai, the self-proclaimed incarnation of seriousness, whom I have met several times in the past.
At first, I often mistook her for Shea-san, but as expected, after meeting her so many times, I’ve come to be able to distinguish between the two. Shea-san has a cool and sharp atmosphere around her, while Serious-senpai looks kinda stu…… she has this cheerful atmosphere around her, so I can easily recognize who is who once I got used to them.
But well, putting that aside…… Why did she suddenly appear on the sofa in my room?
[Eh? Kaito? Long time no see…… I’m in your room like last year huh……]
[I thought about this before, but it’s not like you’re coming after me, right?]
[Every year, the moment the door to that room opens, I get automatically teleported. And all those times, you’re almost always…… Unn? No, could it be that I’m actually just being teleported near to where Kaito is?]
[I have nothing to do with that strange room Serious-senpai lives in though?]
[You do. You have a lot of connection with it. You’re the protagonist, so…… Ah, no, it’s nothing. In any case, it seems that when I leave that room, I will arrive somewhere near you, so I’ll be in your care next time.]
[……H- Huh……]
I couldn’t really understand any of the crucial parts she was saying, but I do understand that she apparently appears near me once a year…… This person really is quite the enigma, she’s someone hard to understand. No, it’s not that she’s a bad person or anything like that though……
[Well, anyway, errr…… Hmm…… Since I’ve got it, might as well give it to you…… Here, a souvenir?]
[Eh? Ahh, thank you for expressly bringing me one. What’s this?]
[It’s a beautifully molded chocolate from when I had chocolatized.]
[……What are you talking about? Did you hit your head, Senpai?]
The heck does she mean by “chocolatized”? I wonder if this is different from what she said before about turning into a white chocolate statue…… No, it seems like she had turned into regular chocolate this time, but how is turning into regular chocolate any different from turning into white chocolate? No, does she actually intend to say she “the chocolate I had melted” there?
[……Serious-senpai, you made these by molding chocolate?]
[No, you remember how I talked about a crazy G.o.d? One time my body turned into chocolate, that crazy G.o.d smashed my body and that would be the end product, so rather than me molding chocolate, it’s more like “I got molded”, I guess?]
[……I’ll be there with you, so how about we go to a hospital?]
[I didn’t become crazy! I know it sounds crazy, but it’s true! Even I’ve been troubled by it, what with turning into sugar or anko……]
[No, when you add your stories until last year……. It seems like you have become like an embodiment of sweetness, where sugar or syrup comes out of her body, or getting turned into a white chocolate statue and can now even chocolatize……]
……Wasn’t her setting supposed to be like she’s the embodiment of seriousness or something like that? I certainly haven’t felt any sense of seriousness from Senpai, both now and back then, but why the heck would a supposed embodiment of seriousness have the ability to transform her own body into sweets?
No, I didn’t hear that much detail last year, and Serious-senpai also said she didn’t really understand it well…… but maybe that crazy G.o.d had done something to her. Since they’re a G.o.d, they should be able to do that much……
[……No, even though it was like that last year…… Putting aside all those circ.u.mstances, isn’t it messed up for Serious-senpai to bring the chocolate, which was apparently made from the chocolate your body turned into, as a souvenir? I’m still feeling afraid of that white chocolate you brought last time, so having me eat this is a bit……]
[Stop with the sound arguments, please…… I honestly haven’t thought I’m doing this either. However, since that crazy G.o.d prepared it and handed it to me, I thought I should properly give it to you……]
[I’ve said it several times, but for Serious-senpai’s sake, I’ll tell you this again. That G.o.d is seriously dangerous, so you should really keep your distance from them……]
[No, rather than this being about me, it’s more because that G.o.d’s someone related to you……]
Serious-senpai’s expression upon hearing my words was indescribably complicated, which left quite an impression in my mind.
Serious-senpai : [No, you completely omitted the whole subt.i.tle!? Also, the heck do you mean you’ll extend April Fool’s!?]
The meanings have kinda gotten lost in translations. In the line:
The heck does she mean by “chocolatized”? I wonder if this is different from what she said before about turning into a white chocolate statue…… No, it seems like she had turned into regular chocolate this time, but how is turning into regular chocolate any different from turning into white chocolate? No, does she actually intend to say she “the chocolate I had melted” there?
The first sentence is talking about Serious-senpai chocolatizing (like, the process of turning into chocolate or something) / チョコレート化する, which is read as “chokoretokasuru”.
“The chocolate I had melted” / チョコレート溶かした in the last sentence is read as “chokoreto tokas.h.i.ta”.
No April Fools’ day chapter from me this year, so here’s a picture of a cat instead.
