18 18 Stories: The 闖 Storm (1)




 One fine spring day.
 There was a figure staring at Allen's house from afar, making a royal gesture.

"Is that ......?

 The figure stared at the mansion for a while, and then, as if making up its mind, began to walk.
 Its eyes had a glint of light in them,......, but of course, there was no one else in the forest, and no one paid any attention to it.




 Just then.

"Okay, Charlotte! We have a problem!
"Yes?

 "Yes?" While they were having lunch, Allen suddenly said something like that.
 That made Charlotte roll her eyes in disbelief while holding her sandwich.

 Today's lunch is a simple sandwich. Just cut up some bread and some ingredients, and you've got yourself a nice looking sandwich.
 Originally, Allen had never been particular about what he ate, but since Charlotte's arrival, he had begun to pay more attention to appearance as well as nutrition.

 Allen held up two pots in his hands.
 One is for coffee, the other for tea.  

"Which do you prefer, coffee or tea?
Well, I'll have the same as Allen's: ......
I'll have the special Geroma's Nutritional Potion, are you sure it's the same one?
...... Tea.
Good.

 Charlotte thought long and hard before she answered.
 Allen was satisfied and began to prepare the tea.

I told you yesterday, I have to be honest. The first step is to know what you like.
It was a choice between tea and coffee. You're exaggerating.
But you've never been able to assert yourself like that before, have you?
That's ...... true, though.

 Charlotte nibbled on her sandwich.
 Charlotte nibbled on her sandwich, then chuckled.

It's true that the only decision I've made ...... in the last few years was to leave the house.
After running away from home, this is it? That's quite a string of major decisions!

 Allen chuckled.

Allen chuckles. "I hope you get a hobby soon. If there's anything you want to try, just let me know.
"You want to try ......?

 Charlotte sits with her sandwich in her mouth and thinks absently. Allen doesn't know what those eyes are looking at. So he decided to leave her alone.

 However, ...... at this rate, he might soon be able to pull out the sandbag he had stuck in the storeroom. I had a hunch about that.

 They were silent for a while.
 The sound of the water boiling and the birds chirping from outside harmonized, and a quiet time slowly passed.

I finally found it!
Whoa!
Geez!

 The door swung open and a sudden intruder appeared.
 Thanks to this, Charlotte jumped up from her chair and Allen frowned.

 The intruder was a girl about the same age as Charlotte.
 She was small in stature, but her proportions were superb, showing off where she showed off and showing off where she retracted. Her large jade eyes are full of vitality.

 She wears a robe similar to Allen's, but with the addition of cat ears. In addition, her shoulder-length black hair is covered with colorful mesh, and she wears an ultra-mini skirt underneath that exposes a large part of her chest.
 She looks more like an aggressive artist than a wizard.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it.

 I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it. Set the tea leaves in the tea pot and fill it with hot water. The quantity is enough for three people, including the unexpected guest.

"Let me ask you something for future reference. How the hell did you find this place?
It's easy. I identified the area from the pollen on the letter and asked around for lice to see if there were any oddball wizards.
"d*mn, ......, that's what you get for knowing exactly what you're doing and wasting your time.

 I'll do better next time.
 With that in mind, Allen made himself a cup of tea. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm going to try.

I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on.
That's my line, but ...... is fine too. Shall we introduce ourselves?

 The girl says her name proudly and proudly.

My name is Eluca Crawford! I'm your sister!
Your sister?
Yeah. My sister-in-law.

 Allen blurted out as he poured sugar into his teacup.
