Chapter 298 – Episode 34. What You Need to Prepare Before Becoming a Blonde Tanning Teacher.
After leaving East Weapon, I came to see a movie with Alic. It was because Alrik said there was a movie he wanted to see.
Alrik’s taste was surprisingly horror, but it was very cute that he flinched every time a scary scene appeared while watching the movie.
The movie was a classic American slasher horror movie about a group of college students being attacked by a ruthless killer with an axe.
“It was fun…”
When the movie ended and the credits rolled, Alrik looked at me and said. Although he was watching a movie, Alic, who didn’t even touch the popcorn, ate it crunchily while the ending credits rolled.
“Why does Alrik like movies like this?”
“Hmm… “I don’t know.”
Since there are probably more people who don’t know why they like a certain genre, I guess Alic doesn’t know why he likes it either.
“So what should we do next? Since it’s lunchtime, shall we have lunch?”
“Yes, Alrik, I want to eat what Ryuu wants to eat.”
Hmm… What could there be? I searched for a date lunch and found that there was a pasta restaurant that was popular recently, so I decided to go there. They say it’s a restaurant where you can eat a combination of the sauce you want and the type of noodles you want, so I was quite curious.
Fortunately, because it was a weekday, there was no line. Still, it was quite crowded as it was a trendy house.
“You choose your noodles and sauce to eat.”
Alic nods his head at what I say and looks at the menu. I also looked at the menu, wondering what to order.
You could combine it however you wanted, but if you ordered the wrong combination, it wouldn’t taste good, so recommended sauces were written for each noodle.
“Sir, would you like to order?”
Alic nodded slightly as if he had decided and called the waiter. An employee who appeared to be around college age approached him and greeted him with a smile.
“Fettuccine Rigate (a variation of fettuccine where stripes are carved on wide pasta so the sauce soaks in better) with Alfredo sauce. “What about Alrik?”
“Alic wants to make Vongole with Capellini (thin pasta noodle, also called angel hair).”
“All right. What would you like to drink?”
“Lemonade and… “What would you like to drink, Alrik?”
“Alik is black tea.”
Perhaps because I am Russian, I like black tea. I also ordered an additional pizza.
I saw before that Alic likes pizza. I also had to eat pizza on the side because I couldn’t get enough from just one bowl of pasta.
Soon the meal came out, and I ate it with Alrik. Surprisingly, Alic ate it quite well, so I ordered a few more sides. It seemed like his body was signaling him to add something because he was growing late.
“Come this way.”
I wiped the pizza sauce from the corner of Alrik’s mouth. This date is perfect… It feels more like a daughter and a father than a date between a man and a woman, right?
“So what do you want to do next?”
“Alik, I want to take a sticker photo with Ryuta.”
It’s a sticker photo… I also took a photo with Han Yoo-kyung, who came to visit Japan the other day. We left the restaurant and went to the place to take sticker photos.
As it is 2053, sticker photos have many functions. When you take a picture, Ai takes the face and transforms it into a fantasy genre outfit and background. You can swap two faces, and the basic correction effect is good, so even now, couples on dates or friends take a lot of pictures.
At first, I took pictures with a slightly cute prince and princess concept, but then I gradually started taking pictures with a horror-style background, which Alrik likes.
There were some photos taken of the two together and some photos taken separately, and it was a fun experience other than being a little embarrassed because Alic’s outfit was quite unconventional.
Because there were so many shots, it took more time to choose, but in the end, he seemed to like it and couldn’t hide his happiness. Of course, if other people saw it, they would ask how he was happy when he had an expressionless expression, but it was clear to me.
“Let’s go to a café next time, Ryu-ta.”
Aleek was so excited that he decided on a destination before I asked him where to go next. The specific name of the café seemed to indicate that it was not just a café, but a place that people liked to announce.
Café Louis.
I think I’ve heard this café name before… I didn’t remember. Alrik took my hand and opened the café door.
“Welcome, master~! This is Gothic Maid Café Louise!”
What welcomed us was a red-haired sister wearing a Gothic costume.
I didn’t remember because I was just passing it along, but I heard that when I settled Seryutai’s debt and bought all the shares, Sister Kiyona Hori Mari, who received quite a lot of money, opened a maid café called Café Louise. When I saw the two of them, it finally occurred to me.
“What’s going on with you two? “Of course, I’m not particularly curious!”
Kiyo Na Mari asked us as she handed out her menu.
“Alik, I’m on a date with Ryuta.”
“De, de, de…” . Date?!”
I’m very agitated. Kiyonahori came towards us, pushing Kiyonamari, who was struggling to come to her senses. By the way, as the boss, you also work hard at entertaining people.
Of course, there were many other employees at Café Louise. Since their main business is PMC, they were often away from work, so they said they hired plenty of employees.
“Master? “Have you chosen all the menu items?”
Perhaps because she is older than Kiyona Mari, she is not very perturbed and asks me with a smile.
“Omelet rice and strawberry smoothie… “What would you like to eat, Alrik?”
“Alic wants to eat cookies and chocolate shake.”
“Yes~! Please wait a minute! Marie, follow me.”
Kiyona Hori received the order and followed Kiyona Mari, holding her by the neck. Perhaps because it was a gothic mate café, most of them were wearing Gothic loli clothes with white aprons rather than traditional maid uniforms.
“Are you here to see Hori and Mari?”
“Yes, both are fun. “Friend.”
They both thought that Alic was cute and treated them well, so Alic seemed to feel at ease with them as well. As we chatted about this and that, the menu we ordered came out. As expected, it was Sister Kiyona who brought the plate.
“Hey, Alek’s favorite white chocolate cookies and chocolate shake… !”
Kiyona Mari placed a plate in front of Alric, and Kiyona Hori slammed the plate in front of me with a smiling but slightly scared expression.
“This is the omelet rice and strawberry smoothie that the owner ordered~! Originally, it was paid, but since you know it, I’ll write it for you.”
Kiyona Hori picked up the ketchup container and started writing something on my omurice.
“Be delicious~! Be delicious~!”
-If you touch a minor, I will kill you.^^
No, what do you think of me? Because of the memories of the battle of possession, I became a person who was designed not to touch minors.
Anyway, it’s delicious~! Be delicious~! It’s very scary to say cheerfully and write, “I’ll kill you red with ketchup.”
“Write something for me too, Marie.”
“Yes, I’ll write it down~!”
At Alik’s request, I added chocolate syrup on top of the cookies. I love it! It was Marie who wrote. But why aren’t you being nice to Alric?
“Alrik, I’ll go to East Weapon later… Do I have to tell you everything about today’s date?”
“I understand.”
Do you two really need to talk? After saying this several times, I went to entertain other guests. Hmm, are you curious about dating? Or are you afraid that I will mess with Alric? I have no idea.
“Oh!”
Since it was just a concept café, I thought the food wouldn’t be that great, but it was quite delicious. It was a pretty well-made omurice. The strawberry smoothie was refreshing and delicious.
After Alic and I finished eating and drinking, sister Kiyona Hori Mari came over and took a Polaroid photo.
A total of six photos were taken, including one couple shot of Alric and me, Alric and Kiyona Mari, Alric and Kiyona Hori, me and Kiyona Mari, me and Kiyona Hori, and finally, a group shot taken by another employee.
“It’s 20,000 yen, sir.”
“Isn’t it too expensive, Mr. Hori?”
“I took six pictures… Hehe”
No, I didn’t even ask to take a picture. Moreover, they took the pictures they took with me!
Still, from my perspective, 20,000 yen wasn’t that expensive, so I calculated it while hiding my sad expression.
“Come again next time~!”
“Because everything I have is not waiting for you!”
“I will never come again!”
We went outside, being seen off by the two sisters. The last course was the game center. This was also an Alic pick. Since the building right next to Café Louise was a game center, it seemed like Alic saw it as he was passing by and thought he wanted to go there.
Because he had been wandering since childhood, Alrik wasn’t very good at games, but he still enjoyed them quite a bit. Lastly, I was trying to do a claw machine, but the machine, which cost as much as 10,000 yen, kept missing the dolls.
“Holy shit!”
“Shit? Ryu-ta, what is this?”
“Oh, it’s nothing.”
I cursed in Korean without realizing it. Now that things were like this, it was necessary to give some real education to the owner of this game center who had adjusted the machine too weakly. I put money into the drawing machine again and controlled it.
What I controlled was not a joystick. The shadow was pulled out thinly and made into a net, and the doll was pulled out as it was.
“Ryuu… “Amazing!”
Alrik exclaimed, his eyes shining like stars. It makes me feel good that you like me this much. I gave Alrik the largest doll among the dolls I picked.
“This is a gift.”
“Alrik, this is your first time receiving a doll…”
I feel bad that this is the girl’s first time receiving a doll as a gift. I bought a large shopping bag to put the rest of the dolls in and stopped by Café Louise again to take care of them. Of course, sisters Kiyona Hori Mari also loved doll gifts.
It was when I left the café after giving the doll as a gift that my phone suddenly rang.

Alic took a sticker photo with an apocalypse background.
