Chapter 75: Chapter 75
Title: Ryo: That'll be extra!
Kamijou Mutsumi took the bundle of grass, and then the girl was certain that she had only blinked, and the bundle of grass had disappeared.
"Where's my grass?"
"Magic, as they say, is about making something appear from nothing, or making something that exists disappear!" Kamijou Mutsumi began to explain.
"So where's my grass?"
"In my stomach!" A smile identical to the girl's previous one appeared on Kamijou Mutsumi's face.
Ryo: ?
Damn it, you ate my grass? The girl tilted her head up and met his gaze. A Stand user of the same type as me! Their thoughts were surprisingly identical.
"You ate all my grass, pay up!" This time, the girl really seemed afraid of him, grabbing his arm. She had already pulled up all the edible grass in the area. If he didn't pay up, she would really go hungry.
"No money. How about you eat me instead?" The girl seemed to be seriously considering where to start.
"Giving you money is unlikely, but if you agree to one request, I can treat you to... breakfast?" At this point, Kamijou Mutsumi finally revealed his true intentions.
"A request?" Hearing this, Miss Ryo pulled back her hand, crossed her arms, and frowned. "I know I'm cute, but don't even think about it, it's impossible!" If it were an ordinary person, it would probably end here, but this was Ryo.
"However," the girl's tone suddenly changed. "I have a super cute junior. If you treat me to breakfast, I can introduce her to you." Who could this junior of Ryo's be? It's so hard to guess, isn't it, Kita?
"What about Nijika?" Kamijou Mutsumi asked with some curiosity.
And Ryo seemed not to have expected to hear this name from his mouth, her eyes widening slightly. "...That'll be a different price!" It can only be you, Ryo!
"I don't need you to introduce me, I can meet her myself. Just take me to STARRY, Miss Ryo." Seeing her name come from his mouth, the expression on the girl's face finally changed.
"So you're a passionate secret admirer?" Miss Ryo concluded. "But that's not okay, it will only make girls hate you, unless..."
"Unless?"
"You pay up!" The girl held out her hand.
"So are you taking me or not?"
"I am!" This was her compensation. If she didn't eat, she would starve. And even without her, it wouldn't be hard for him to find STARRY.
In the end, Ryo, eating his crepe, took him to STARRY. This normal food was indeed much tastier than grass. Perhaps because it was still early, there were no customers inside.
"Ryo!" A certain blonde girl with a triangular, magnetically levitating ahoge immediately noticed Ryo eating a crepe next to Kamijou Mutsumi. "What took you so long? Eh, who's this...?" After complaining, the girl noticed the young man next to her friend and showed a confused expression. Ryo actually came with someone else this time, and it's a boy she doesn't know?
"Hello, I'm Kamijou Mutsumi, Nijika-mama." Unlike the somewhat artificial Soyo, Nijika, who clearly looked like a vibrant young girl, exuded a gentle, motherly aura in her every move. It can only be Nijika-mama, not comparable to a fake mother figure like Soyo. The latter probably has a stronger fatherly vibe, at least for Mutsumi Tōgō.
"Hello... wait, what's with the 'Nijika-mama'?" The girl was originally smiling and greeting him, but she quickly reacted, her cheeks turning bright red. Being called "mama" by someone her own age was a first, even for Nijika-mama.
"Because Nijika-mama is Nijika-mama!" I can't explain this to you, because Nijika Ijichi is a woman who could become my mother.
"Speaking of which... indeed," Ryo, who had finished her crepe, was now stroking her chin and seriously examining her friend. "Nijika really is as gentle as a mother."
"Why are you like this too, Ryo?" Betrayed by her own friend, Nijika could only complain with a blush.
"Nijika-mama, can you grant me one request?" Kamijou Mutsumi asked.
"A request? What is it?" Miss Nijika clearly hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation.
"I, Mutsumi, have drifted through half my life, only lamenting that I have yet to meet a worthy mother." A melodious BGM seemed to sound within STARRY. PA-san, who had been dozing off, immediately stood up. Who turned on the stereo?
"If you, Natsu, would not abandon me, I, Mutsumi, would be willing to take you as my adoptive mother!" As he spoke, Kamijou Mutsumi took Nijika's hand, knelt on one knee, and then took out a diamond ring. Wait, who proposes to be an adoptive mother with a diamond ring? Anyone who didn't know better would think it was a marriage proposal! No, this looks exactly like a marriage proposal, okay?
"I..." The innocent girl had never seen such a scene before, her cheeks instantly turning bright red. She looked at her friend with a helpless expression, seeking help. You brought him here, you deal with him!
And Ryo did indeed help her out, but not in the way she had hoped.
"Young man," Ryo directly grabbed the hand holding the diamond ring, her eyes seemingly turning into money signs. "Do you need another adoptive mother? What do you think of me?" She naturally knew that diamonds were just a marketing gimmick, but the diamond ring in his hand was different. It was pure silver and studded with a bunch of gems, clearly worth a lot of money.
"Don't get into weird relationships with people just for money!" Nijika naturally saw through her friend's thoughts and couldn't help but retort.
"It has to be Nijika-mama!" And Kamijou Mutsumi's response was firm.
"Even if you say that, it won't make me happy!"
"It has to be Nijika?" Hearing this, a conflicted expression appeared on Ryo's face. After thinking for a while, she finally made a decision.
"Nijika is my bandmate, my dear friend!"
"So?"
"That'll be extra!" Ryo looked at him and said with a serious face.
"I'm still here!" Miss Ryo's actions naturally drew her friend's displeasure. "Don't make these weird deals in front of the person in question!"
In the end, Kamijou Mutsumi and Ryo were naturally and rightfully disciplined by Nijika-mama.
"So," looking at Ryo and Kamijou Mutsumi sitting obediently side by side on the chairs, Nijika couldn't help but let out a soft sigh. "This... Mr. Kamijou, could he be your younger brother, Ryo?" That scummy vibe was a perfect match for her friend's.
"Why a younger brother, can't it be an older brother?" Kamijou Mutsumi wanted to object, but a single glance from Nijika-mama immediately made him behave.
