The fifth day of the Sixth King Festival. The Six King Festival, which is very dense each day, is more than halfway through, and there are only three days left, including today. Today is the Phantom King No Face the festival produced by Alice will be held.
　And although I'll be going around the festival with Alice for a day, compared to the past four days, I have more time in my heart to spare.

　There are several reasons for this, but the biggest one is that not many people know that Alice is the Phantom King. Wherever we go, attracting people's attention is unexpectedly tiring, so I'm very grateful for this point.
　Well, since I was named by Megiddo-san on the first day, went around with the Sixth King on the second and third days, and the day before I had drawn a special Rainbow Dragon individual with a special prize, I feel like I, not Alice, will be the cause of the gaze.......
　But even without that, it's easy to say that Alice is my opponent. There's also Alice's own personality, and she's someone I chat with often, so I don't have much tension.

''........hmmm. Should I be happy about the deep trust Kite-san has placed in me.......or should I lament the fact that I still feel more like a best friend than a lover.......
'No, well, that's how much time I can afford to relax and enjoy today.
What's your heart?
Because of Alice.
That's a very versatile word.

　Alice's clothes, which she smiles bitterly, aren't changing just because it's the Sixth King Festival.

''However!　You can afford it now, Kite!
...Uh-huh?
When you see this festival Alice has produced, your eyes will widen in amazement and you will freeze in place!
"...no, but I can kind of see it coming and...
'What did you say?　No, no, Kite, if you're going to make a joke, please say it better than that. It's my 'project that I came up with after a nap without sleeping at night'.......no matter how much of a kite you are......
It's like a giant gambling den for the whole city, isn't it?
....

　Alice freezes at the words I tell her. How easy to understand.
　Yes, the other reason I have an open mind is because I had some idea of what today's festival would be like.

''........No, no, no. It's different.
....
'Wow, my project is for fun........leisure. It's only a side effect of some of the attractions that I spend money on, it's basically entertainment...
I mean, now that you mention it........but you use entertainment and stuff like that normally. You definitely know a lot about the world I've been in, don't you?
"...What?　What are you talking about?　Alice, I don't know what's going on in Kite's world~
You're a bastard.

　It's been bothering me for a while now, but I think Alice knows too much about the world I was in. It's not just the knowledge passed down from playing an absolutely brave man.
　Maybe she has some kind of magical power to peek into my memory or something. I think she said before that she could do it if she wanted to....

By the way, but on a different note...
Yeah?
Hometown taxes are definitely paid by people who aren't local, right?
You're not actually from the same world as me or anything, are you?

　I knew this guy too well. He knows so much about it that you'd think he'd been in the world I was in a few times.

Well, let's put that little detail aside and get on with it!　The festival produced by Alice is pretty awesome. Well, it's not like Dreamland with rats or a big movie land, but it's the same as a large-scale theme park. It's more like a huge game center.
Uh-huh.
By the way, we have a variety of new games based on Kite's world of play, too!

　Huh?　Is it my imagination?　I just had the extra-dimensional martial art of WANAGE go through my head and it's not like that, is it?　A non-life threatening one, right?

Come on, let's go!　Well~ Kite, you really are a lucky person.
Well, I guess it's true that I'm lucky to have met Alice.
''.........Well, don't honestly affirm it there. It's embarrassing, isn't it...

　Slightly reddening my cheeks, I took Alice's hand that was gently extended to me, and headed out of the central tower to the festival.
　A festival produced by Alice.....a huge game center, according to her. And the world I was in, a new game created by Alice, who also knows a lot about Earth.
　I felt a little uneasy, but still, as long as I'm with Alice, there's no problem.

　Dear Mom and Dad - it's the fifth day of the Sixth King Festival. There was a bit of Alice's comments that bothered me, but I wasn't that nervous. Because it's Alice.............the day we spend together is bound to be fun.
