Chapter 1158 - Harmonic Symphony Part 2 V2 ⑤

After watching several performances and creative dances, I suddenly felt a gaze and turned around. Thereupon, I found a woman staring at me with a serious expression on her face.

She has semi-long reddish-brown hair, and what I think you call a wolf cut? Anyhow, it was a woman with hair that bounces outward around her collar.

She dressed in a leather jacket over a tank top, with denim shorts covering her lower body, making her outfit look a bit like a punk’s outfit.

Her distinctive features were her sharp eyes, and the dog…… no wolf ears and tail. Is she a Beastman? She didn’t seem familiar though?

[……Ummm?]

[It might be abrupt of me to ask this, but am I right to assume you’re the person known as Miyama Kaito?]

When I asked her if she had some business with me, the woman responded with a serious expression on her face.

[Eh? Yes, that’s right.]

[I see……]

The woman apparently knew who I was, and after nodding lightly to my response, she seemed to be thinking for a moment.

Then, after a few seconds of silence, she spoke.

[……I’m sorry for suddenly calling out to you. I’m Ryukoricyan. Would it be alright if I could talk to you, even if it’s just for a couple of minutes?]

[Yes, I don’t really mind……]

[Thank you. I originally should have taken the proper steps to meet with you, so I apologize. I thought I might be a nuisance, but after coincidentally meeting you like this, I just couldn’t not call out to you…… Do you mind if I call you Kaito? You can just call me Cyan too.]

[I understand. Cyan-san it is then. So, do you have some business with me?]

Cyan-san had this cool and unfriendly impression when she spoke, but I could feel that she was trying to be considerate with me, so I don’t think Cyan-san is a bad person.

[You have a Catreid in your home, don’t you? That cocky, undisciplined, whimsical and uninhibited fool who acts on the spur of the moment when she thinks of something……]

[Eh? Errr, there is a Catreid living in my home but…… are you acquainted with Caraway?]

[……I’d shake my head if I could, but yes, I do know her. Infuriating it may be, I do have a connection with her…… She’s the one I hate the most.]

[……………………]

Hmmm, she was cursing at her. However, it didn’t seem like she hated Caraway as much as she said she did. Somehow, it kinda felt just like the connection between Chronois-san and Ein-san. Even though she talks badly about her, I never feel any malicious intent of wanting to disparage her.

Thereupon, Cyan-san looked as if she was thinking again, and after lightly scratching her cheeks, she vigorously bowed her head.

[……Thank you.]

[Huh? A- About what? Suddenly thanking me……]

[It’s for helping her out after she did something stupid…… I had been wanting to thank you once I met you. I didn’t like her one bit, but seeing someone I had been competing against for so long just falling to ruin like that makes me so angry. However, I didn’t have the power to do anything about it. I’m grateful to Kaito for that.]

[……Errr, I’m sorry if I’m mistaken. Is Cyan-san the Demon that used to live next to Caraway’s territory?]

[……Yeah.]

I knew it. Cyan-san was the Demon Caraway mentioned before during the White God Festival. The person she was competing against, living next to her previous territory.

If I recall, Caraway also spoke of Cyan-san in a sarcastic and angry manner, but on the other hand, she also said that she trusted her, so I guess they were rivals who approved of each other.

As I was thinking this, Cyan-san raised her face and spoke to me with a smile.

[I’m sorry for taking up your time. With this, I’ve finished my business…… Ahh, I don’t mind if it’s just as much as possible, but please don’t tell her that you met me.]

[……I understand.]

[Well then, please take care of that idiot.]

[Ahh, Cyan-san.]

[Unnn?]

After reflexively stopping Cyan-san, who was about to leave, I thought for a moment before speaking.

[……If you would like, please come visit my house sometime. I’m sure Caraway would like to meet and talk to you……]

[……I…… suppose. I guess it would be entertaining seeing her stupid face……]

[Yes, I think Caraway would be happy about that.]

[Hmph…… You’re a good guy. I like you…… Well then, I’ll come visit when I get the chance. See you later, Kaito.]

[Yes, see you.]

After smiling happily, Cyan-san lightly waved her hand goodbye before leaving. As I thought, even though she might sound rough, she was a nice person.
