Ch 26 – Group Date
Alex's lips couldn't stop twitching, feeling four sharp stares at himself.
He was quite interested in the clubbing that Finral spoke of. But in the end, it was nothing more than a group date.
When he and Luck followed Fineral to the capital, they had no idea that they would find themselves in a tavern across three young women.
And from the corner of his eyes, he saw Noelle trying to spy on them while working as a waitress.
Alex recognized the girl who sat in front of him.
Rebecca was a teenage girl of average height and had a slender, curvaceous build. She had long, wavy red hair, navy blue eyes, and freckles on her face. She was wearing a necklace with a long, elegant dress, and a white short-hood over her shoulders.
The girl in the middle was a friend of hers and seemed like a sweet teenage girl. She had short blonde hair and her eyes were closed, making an arc of a crescent moon. She was also dressed in an elegant dress along with a pearl necklace.
The last one was the girl to the right. She seemed quite intelligent and sharp from her facial features. She was wearing her short, black hair back. As for her dress, just like her two friends, she was also dressed in an elegant outfit.
Finral was the first to speak as he excitedly said. "Let's start with our introductions🎵."
He opened a portal with his spatial magic and summoned out three bouquets. "I'll go first."
"21 years old from Touta. I am the spatial magic user from Black Bulls Finral Roulacase!!"
"Oohhh!!" Erika, the one who was sitting in front of Finral seemed genuinely interested, watching him summoning out things from a portal.
Finral continued, showing off a little. "They are fresh-picked moon-blossoms! Please, take them as our token of friendship!"
This time, the one in the middle, Helena exclaimed. "That's amazing! These flowers only bloom on Mt. Anahu, and only at night, right?"
The three of them accepted the flowers, Rebecca a little reluctantly.
Finral smiled, while inside, he was jumping in excitement.
'Nice. They are hooked. This time I will get a girlfriend for sure. And in order to make that happen, I need Asta and Luck to give their all!'
Finral nudged Luck with his elbow, urging him. "Come on, go ahead and introduce yourselves!"
Luck looked at Finral and thought. 'Hmm... so we have to say what we like, huh?'
He cheerfully introduced himself.
"Luck Voltia, 18 years old, from Ibon. I'm a member of Black Bulls. I like fighting tough enemies in bloody battles."
Alex almost face-palmed himself, his facial muscles twitching. 'Who in their right mind will say something like that and that too on a blind date?'
He took a deep breath after Luck's amazing introduction.
"Hello, I'm Asta, from Hage. I joined the Black Bulls recently and can use Anti-magic."
"Anti-magic?" Erika asked, slightly confused.
Finral was startled by Luck's intro but watching them interested in Asta's anti-magic, he happily explained.
"It's a form of magic that can cancel all magics. And don't look at how young he is! This guy is very powerful! He even recently got promoted by the Wizard King."
"Oohhh!!"
This really impressed the girls as they stared at Alex like searchlights.
"Haha, don't listen to Finral-san's words, I still have to learn much more." Alex waved his hand, feeling awkward. He didn't like to show off that much, especially in front of young girls.
'Ohh, sweet and humble, not to forget about his handsome face! Even though he was from Hage, he had good manners and that unique aura and charm... I find this kid so much interesting.'
'Damn! I wish he was my date but Rebecca got lucky this time.'
Erika and Helena gritted their teeth in jealousy as they compared him to Finral and Luck.
Rebecca was also slightly interested but not to their extent. She just tagged along their friends to make up the numbers. She knew very well how everyone would treat her once they learned she took care of her five siblings by working as a waitress in the town.
Finral clapped his hands and said. "Now then, how about you guys introduce yourselves now."
"Sure," Erika was quite excited as she glanced at Alex and said. "Ehm, we are all friends. My name is Erika and I'm from Nairn. I'm 17 years old and work at a dressmaker's shop. It's one of the best shops in the entire Nairn."
Helena was next as she smiled. "17 years old, I'm Helena. I work as a hairdresser. You should pay a visit sometimes, I promise you will not regret it."
Rebecca was the only one who was not interested, simply speaking. "Rebecca, I work at a Restaurant."
"Ohh, that's great. We all have solid jobs. Isn't that fantastic?... How about you tell me more about your job?" Finral asked, wanting to know them more and keeping the conversation flowing.
"Never mind us. Tell us more about magic knights?" Erika waved her hand and asked.
Helena also chimed in. "Yeah, I want to hear too."
The girls around their age were very interested in the Magic Knights, fantasizing about them.
Since they couldn't become one, they at least dream of dating one instead.
"Aw, that's very nice of you to say that. In that case, uhm..." Finral turned to Luck and asked. "I know. You have been working hard lately, Luck. What sort of missions you're doing?"
Luck had no common sense whatsoever, speaking. "That other day, I slaughtered a group of bandits."
When he said that, he even zipped a spark of electricity between his fingers, looking very disturbing.
The girls were almost dumbfounded by his words, surprised by him saying such words in front of them.
'He really has no sense at all...' Finral's facial muscles twitched. He turned to Alex for hope.
"Hey Asta! You protected the citizens of the capital the other day, didn't you?"
Alex smiled and nodded his head. "Yep. It was such a chaotic situation."
"The streets were filled with those zombie monsters and all the magical knights were doing their best to eliminate them and protect the capital. But..." Alex explained, purposely pausing.
Sure enough, Helena urged with stars sparkling in her pupils. "What happened?"
Alex chuckled and continued. "The enemy used a cheap trick and teleported all the magical knights far from the capital by the spatial magic."
"What?" Helena covered her mouth in surprise.
Erika asked quickly, excited. "Seriously... then how did the capital was saved?"
Alex saw Finral giving him a thumb-up from the side as he explained. "Well, luckily, I escaped the trap. With three more magic knights, I tried to protect the capital while trying to capture the enemies..."
