Chapter 1748: I forgot to ask him!
Maya looked at the young man in front of her. She became more obsessed. After all, his ability was without a doubt, and unlike her "monster" nephew that she feared, Haru gave her a pleasant feeling. Unlike most people who saw her as a monster, he saw her like a woman, which made her smile sweetly, so she didn"t hesitate to ask him became her, but...
Haru raised his eyebrow, then looked around curiously.
His action caused doubt on Hayam and Maya, but then...
Hayama opened his eyes wide when he saw what Haru had done to Maya.
Haru pulled Maya"s cheek gently and said, "I"m not dreaming? This isn"t a prank?"
"...." Maya was also dumbfounded when Haru pulled her cheeks since it was her first time to be treated like this. "No, this isn"t a dream. If you want to see whether it is a dream or not, I can slap you now."
Haru quickly let go of Maya"s cheek and raised his hands.
As for Sumire, she ate her udon while looking at the three of them.
Maya looked at Sumire, who was eating her udon, and said, "Hayama, bring me udon too."
"..." Hayama wanted to say something, but in the end, he nodded and said, "As you wish, milady." He then left and went to the kitchen to get udon for Maya.
"Even though I know your ident.i.ty, why don"t we introduce each other first?" Haru said.
"Um." Maya nodded and said, "Why not?" She looked at Haru and Sumire and said, "My name is Yotsuba Maya. As you can see, I"m the head of the Yotsuba clan."
"Sumire Muroto, doctor," Sumire said simply.
Maya looked at Sumire and asked, "A doctor?"
Sumire nodded and said, "Yes, I should be able to cure anything if you have a problem."
"Hmm..." Maya looked at Sumire for a while, then looked at Haru and asked, "How about you? What"s your real name?"
"Rokaku Haruka," Haru said simply.
Maya raised her eyebrows and said, "Are you really someone from the Rokkaku clan?"
"Well, your family has a lot of hidden things, so why don"t you think that the other clan should have someone like me?" Haru asked.
Maya"s body was slightly tense, but she still maintained a calm att.i.tude and asked, "Did you hack our network?" She knew that Haru was a very powerful hacker, and depending on his answer, she might be giving a different response now.
"Hlioskjalf." Haru sipped a warm green tea and said, "I hack it." In truth, before, he got all the information from all the laboratories in this country, stealing their data easily. He did it in the world of Infinite Stratos, and doing it in this world wasn"t that much different.
"...." Maya.
"That Clark guy would be sad if he knew that his thing had been played by someone," Maya said with a smile.
"I still don"t understand how you know us?" Haru asked.
"Well, in truth, it was an accident. I saw you enter the hotel with this woman. I saw your aura was a bit different, so I thought I would investigate you, but I didn"t expect to get a jackpot," Maya said.
Haru and Sumire nodded and thought that Maya was lucky. After all, the two of them had fully integrated into this world, and they had become part of the Rokkaku clan, so it was impossible to search their past, but Maya happened to see them and happened to investigate them before they fully integrated, which made her knew about their information.
"It was strange that I didn"t know your ident.i.ty before this, and it felt like you were coming from a different world or something," Maya said, telling about her real feeling.
"You"re thinking too much. I have been very low-key before and used most of my time to learn," Haru said simply.
"So, what"s your intention to suddenly appear in public?" Maya asked.
"I just wanted to leave some marks on the history and change the status quo of the Magicians. After all, even though we"re weapons, we"re not livestock, we"re human too, we have a right to be happy, right?" Haru said with a smile, then held Sumire"s hand.
Sumire was shy and kicked Haru"s feet lightly, but she didn"t move her hand away.
"What are you embarra.s.sed for?" Haru asked speechlessly. After all, both of them had done a lot of things together.
"There was someone beside us, you know?" Sumire said resentfully.
Maya looked at both of them, and there was a hint of jealousy in her eyes. "Your relationship is good but isn"t it quite hard to have quite a huge age gap in your relationship?"
"Well, it is true." Sumire nodded and said, "I"m almost in my 30, after all. Still, this guy loves his older woman."
"Oh-ho?" Maya looked at Haru amusedly and asked, "You like an older woman?"
"....." Haru.
Sumire chuckled and looked at Maya. "Still, if you want to date him, I"m alright with it. This guy is a beast in bed. I can"t handle him alone."
"...." Haru and Maya.
"Milady, it is your udo." Hayama didn"t seem to hear their conversation and brought a bowl of udon for Maya. "Is there something wrong?" He looked at the three of them and wondered whether there was something wrong.
"Nothing." Maya shook her head and said, "Hayama, give me a fork. I can"t use chopsticks."
"You can"t use chopsticks?" Haru looked at Maya weirdly.
"Is it wrong?" Maya raised her eyebrow.
"No, it"s alright." Haru shook his head and said, "Well, how about I help to feed you?" He was joking, but...
Maya smiled and asked, "Will you?"
"Why not?" Haru wasn"t someone who was going to back away, and he had to admit that Maya was his type. He moved closer to Maya and decided to feed her. He took the udon after cooled it for a bit. He said, "Open your mouth." But he had to admit that her drill-like hairstyle was really unique.
"...." Hayama.
"Ahh..." Maya opened her mouth lightly, and she let him feed her.
"How is it?" Haru asked after he felt Maya.
Maya chewed the udon lightly while covering her mouth with her hand. She gulped the udon, then said, "Well, it is better than I had expected." She then opened her mouth again, waiting for him to feed him.
"Well, you"re really spoiled, huh?" Haru then fed Maya carefully so the broth wouldn"t stain her dress.
The lunch was quite an eventful and happy moment. Haru, Sumire, and Maya talked to each other with a smile.
As for Hayama, this guy was only stunned there since it was his first time to see Maya showing such an expression after that incident happened.
When something happy happened, the time had always moved very fast, Haru and Sumire also decided to return to the laboratory, but before he went back, he asked, "Is it alright for you to come out to play like this here?"
"It"s alright. The clan head of the Mutsuzuka is my friend," Maya said.
"I see." Haru nodded and said, "Well, I have created fake information around the security in this area, including the satellite, so no one knows about our meeting. You don"t need to worry much."
Hayama was dumbfounded since this guy was a more skilled hacker than he had thought. If possible, he wanted to have such a talent on the Yotsuba clan, and if it wasn"t possible, it might be good to end him, but...
Hayama was wondering why he felt that they might not have a chance to win against him.
Maya nodded and didn"t think too much, but then, she asked, "Say, Haruka-kun."
"What"s wrong, Maya-san?" Haru asked.
After talking to each other, they decided to call each other by their first names directly.
"You don"t fear me?" Maya asked.
"Huh? Why?" Haru was confused.
"I mean, don"t you know my nickname?" Maya asked.
"The Queen of Night or Demon King of the Far East? I"m sure that my friend will be envious of you since you have such a cool nickname," Haru said and felt that Kuroneko might feel jealous of Maya.
Sumire also agreed since she felt that Kuroneko also would be jealous of Maya.
"...." Sumire and Hayama.
Maya chuckled and said, "It"s fun to be with you. Can I visit you again?"
"Sure." Haru nodded and said, "Well, we"ll go back first. See you, Maya-san."
"Bye, Maya." Sumire nodded and held Haru"s hand, leaving them.
"Bye." Maya waved her hand toward both of them.
Maya and Hayama didn"t move from their spots, watching Sumire and Haru, who slowly left.
"I can"t read them, but they probably won"t be hostile toward us." Hayama wanted to say that Haru might be interested in Maya. Still, he decided to shut his mouth since he felt it was a bit unthinkable for a 15 or 16-year-old boy to be interested in a 45-year-old woman, even though Maya was beautiful.
"Did I feel that you"re thinking something rude, Hayama?" Maya asked while staring at Hayama.
"It is your imagination, milady." Hayama bowed his head.
Maya then ignored Hayama then stared at Haru"s back for a while, and no one really knew what she was thinking at this moment, but then, a smile formed on her mouth and said, "Let"s go back, Hayama."
"Yes, Milady." Hayama bowed his head and smiled when he saw how good Maya"s condition was.
"Should I visit him again later?" Maya thought at that moment and felt that it had been a while since she had fun, but then she remembered something and almost slapped her forehead. "I forgot to ask him!"
