Chapter 8 – You’re Angel and I’m Father

“Angelica, do you have a minute?” (Keisuke)

I raised my voice rather loudly since there was so distance between us.

“What is it!?” (Angelica)

Just like , Angelica raised her voice slightly louder as well.

Oops, our voices might be heard by our neighbor —I just realized and reflected on it.

(It seems I’m still half-asleep. It’s going to cause various problems if I do not wake up soon.)

There’s a grumpy grandpa living next door. Though he’s old, his hearing seems like it hasn’t declined. If I set the volu of the television too loud, he’ll protest by hitting the wall.

I washed my hands, dried them with a towel, went back to the living room, and sat down next to Angelica.

Because our neighbor was a noise-sensitive one, I lowered my voice and went back to the topic.

“If you can use your Sensing skill, there’s sothing I’d like to ask.” (Keisuke)

“Did you shave your beard? Such a waste, it was ticklish and fun.” (Angelica)

Are you listening to ?

Why do you know how it feels?

Did you touch it while I was sleeping?

While feeling all kinds of uneasiness and doubt, I proceeded the talk.

“It’s going to be close to a week or so, there’s talk about a ghost sighting in the neighborhood. So, I’m wondering if you could check it for .” (Keisuke)

The ghost of a girl dressed in white had appeared —that was the hottest topic in the neighborhood.

Regardless of the New Year or coming-of-age ceremony, the sight of the residents who blood over the seasonal ghost story, gave unpleasant feelings.

“This world….. is this a world where spiritual bodies walk around? If so, from tonight onwards, I demand to sleep on the sa bed and to have you escort when I’d like to go to the toilet. Though I am a shrine maiden, I have zero resistance toward those kinds of things.” (Angelica)

“Please be at ease. No ghosts or spirits exist in this world. This is a dinsion that doesn’t even have magic.” (Keisuke)

“…..it’s such a loneso world.” (Angelica)

“Instead, chanical engineering is developed. Your favorite bidet is an example.” (Keisuke)

“I-It’s not I like it….. But, I don’t dislike it either…..” (Angelica)

Angelica was fidgeting while rubbing her thighs together. She seed to be rembering the incident from before.

“But if there are no ghosts in this world, why would you bother investigating it?” (Angelica)

“There’s the possibility that it was a mistake. It’s just to be safe, a precaution.” (Keisuke)

I have to say, I don’t really think there’s any kind of ghost. That must be a mistake about sothing, and I just want to raise my level of conviction.

I do not believe in unfounded superstitions or the occult. Because of that, when I saw Angelica for the first ti yesterday, “Oh, this is it!” —I thought that this was definitely the true identity of the ghost.

She arrived in Japan so days ago and has been hiding sowhere in the apartnt building. Then, she found a chance and trespassed into my room.

Indeed, I saw that she had so kind of mysterious aura sotis. Combined with her fluttering fantasy costu, it wouldn’t be strange if she was mistaken to be a foreigner ghost.

(Yeah, case closed!)

Then again, after I put my feelings into this deduction, it was shot down magnificently.

Angelica told that she arrived to Japan just before I got ho. In other words, it has been ten hours or so since she ca to Japan. It was impossible for her to be mistaken as a ghost that started appearing since a week ago.

“So, would you help ? I’ll prepare a reward later.” (Keisuke)

“……….a date?” (Angelica)

“It’s clothes!” (Keisuke)

I have to prepare female clothing and underwear for her anyway, so whatever her answer later, those are the items I intended to buy no matter what.

But I used it as negotiation material. I guess that’s how adults are.

“Okay, I don’t mind….. However, there’s one thing I’d like to ask first.” (Angelica)

“What is that?” (Keisuke)

“Don’t you think Angelica is too long?” (Angelica)

She raised her index finger, “This is the most important part!” —and made that kind of face.

Her cheeks turned a bit red, so I wondered if she was excited about sothing. She has a good complexion even without make up.

“…..were you being called sothing else?” (Keisuke)

“Before I ca here, I was called Angie or Angel.” (Angelica)

“Then, Angel.” (Keisuke)

“You didn’t hesitate at all, did you?” (Angelica)

I an, Angie reminds of a certain Hollywood actress with a strong image that’s totally different from hers.

“Then, I request that as well. Please call properly as your guardian. Stop calling Hero-sama.” (Keisuke)’

“But that’s disrespectful. Because to , Hero-sama is a hero.” (Angelica)

“I don’t like it that much, that hero stuff.” (Keisuke)

Because it reminds of all the bad things.

“…..got it. Then, Father.” (Angelica)

“Good girl, Angel!” (Keisuke)

Since the naming problem was solved, we proceeded to the main subject.

【 Party mber Sacred Shrine Maiden Angelica activates the Sensing skill. 】

【 While using the skill, MP will be consud by 2 every second.】

I look up to Angelica after skimming through the window of text that ca into sight.

The shrine maiden with blond hair walked quietly with her eyes closed. She went back and forth through the room, touched the wall, and focused her ears. I think she kept doing so for two or three minutes, but it was such an interesting scene.

That girl, she had her eyes closed while making a serious face. Moreover, I could feel a sacredness coming out from her figure.

That was a huge discovery.

While I was fascinated by her, she suddenly stopped in front of , sat down, and opened her eyes.

Her erald green eyes frad by long eyelashes, were staring straight into mine. She looked inorganic sowhere, as if she were a doll.

“………. Father?” (Angelica)

“Oh, sorry. How was it?” (Keisuke)

She called in a businesslike tone while I was lost in thought. Her expression returned from that of a doll to a human being

Nurous beads of sweat were hovering on her forehead.

What the hell did you find in this short ti? I thought.

Angelica answered my question while rubbing her arms.

“Things that are not human….. sward. I also felt strong malice. If we do not do sothing soon, soone will die in the near future.” (Angelica)
