Chapter 101
Sumr season; the fierce heat still refuses to cool off . The noise of cicada pierces my ears as the sunlight almost burned my skin .
“Too hot......”
I walked through the overheated street while wearing a simple T-shirt and shorts while trying to find a reason for making myself go out in this weather . I rembered that after fulfilling my promise with ru, I was about to lay down on my bed in my room that had an air conditioner . When suddenly, my mom knocked the door and asked to go out shopping for her . When I was about to suggest for her to ask Karen instead, she added “you need to go outside a little bit” and left the room .
“Why is it so hot?”
“The temperature this year is higher than that of the last year, master . ”
ru answered to my aningless complaint . Today, I’m using wireless earphones to be able to talk with her at any mont . I bought it a long ti ago but never had the chance or mood to use it . However now, that I’m using it, I realized it’s convenient compared to the normal earphones . I can talk to ru without having to carry my phone in my hand all the ti . Though this lting heat didn’t let enjoy the usefulness of the earphones .
“They talked about the highest temperature recently, did they?”
“Yes, and apparently, this sumr is going to get even hotter, Desu . ”
Oh my god .
I just felt true despair at ru’s words . She’s an excellent AI whose information network covers the entire world . If she says that this sumr is going to get even hotter, then that’s definitely going to happen .
“Let’s go back already...”
At this rate, I’m going to get completely dried up . Wiping my forehead, I headed back ho while carrying the shopping bag .
“You can do it, Desu, master . Only 505 ters and 65 centiters until your destination . ”
“Please ru, stop giving that type of information . It just makes more exhausted...”
The last thing I wanted to think on my way back is the distance . Maybe I shouldn’t have used wireless earphones after all . Under the blazing sun and while listening to ru’s energetic voice that increased my fatigue, I continued to walk towards the oasis commonly known as my air-conditioned room . Unfortunately at that ti, a magic circle erged before , in the air .
“Hm?”
I halted my steps and observed that magic circle for a while . Soon after, sothing appeared from it and directly fell on the ground .
“Ouch! Why does this damn magic tool always drop from the top...?”
The person who fell complained at the magic circle . It was a young woman with a silky deep crimson hair and wearing a bikini armor . I imdiately felt a premonition from witnessing the abnormal appearance of the woman in front of . Well, she seed to be abnormal the mont she showed up from a magic circle . Due to the scorching heat, I couldn’t think properly and remained standing at my place instead of ignoring her and returning back ho . My eyes t the woman’s who was still lying on her back .
“Ah . ”
“Ah?”
Unlike my normal reaction, the woman, still lying on the ground, uttered with a peeved voice and sent a glare . I assud that she had sothing against judging from that reaction, but soon enough, it turned out that that wasn’t the case .
“Oh! Could you be Kamiya Yato?!”
She suddenly stood up and asked with a polite voice . Though, I answered her with the coldest tone I could use .
“No, you got the wrong person . ”
Leaving those words behind, I walked away .
“W-Wait! Don’t escape!”
Interrupting my walk, she grabbed by my wrist and looked at in the face while smirking . Seriously, what’s wrong with this weather . It looks like I’m even hearing things now . Of course, I didn’t give up on my plan to escape from her and tried to shake off her hand that was seizing my wrist, but surprisingly enough, I couldn’t do that .
“I told you . You got the wrong person . ”
“Stop lying . There’s no way soone harboring a trendous amount of magic like you could be the wrong person . ”
Looks like it was impossible to deceive her from the very start . Well, I’m sensing an enormous amount of magic coming from her as well . That’s why I chose not to get involved with her and tried shaking off her hand again without getting a desirable result . Damn it, what’s up with her strength . Her hand didn’t show a sign of loosing up no matter how strong I tried to shake it off . Reading my expression, that woman grinned at .
“Well, just wait . I’m not intending to do anything for now . I just ca to greet you . So don’t run away . Don’t you dare escape, Okay? You’re not gonna escape, are you? Haa?”
Putting aside her belligerent way of speech... What is wrong with this woman?
I could guess that she is related to those Gods in so way, but I never t her . If I were asked how to deal with a gorgeous beauty like her with a very disappointing character, I wouldn’t be able to answer imdiately .
“Sorry but I don’t know you . I have so tasks to take care of now, so leave my hand . ”
When I asked her to leave alone with an offensive lie, she seed to be glad and responded with an excited voice tone .
“You’re getting more and more interesting . It’s been a while since the last ti I t soone who’s not affected by my intimidation . ”
Looks like I beca a target for her interest . Rather, did she try to intimidate just now? Noticing that my lie had an opposite effect on her mood, I revealed a reluctant face, but that woman didn’t mind that and continued .
“My na is Scala . I’m a God . Well, nice to et you, I guess . ”
“Yea...”
I let out a silly voice from listening to her self-introduction . I wasn’t surprised at all to hear that she was a God, but her next words made widen my eyes from the shock .
“This is abrupt but, I’m going to have you fight . ”
“A...... Huh!?”
This ti, I almost scread in exclamation .
“The date and ti is a day after tomorrow at this very ti . You can choose any place you want . When the ti cos I will teleport to your location and the fight will begin . ”
“W-Wait a second! What wrong with you showing up all of a sudden!?”
Unable to comprehend the situation, I asked her back with a confused face . How am I supposed to deal with soone suddenly showing up and challenging for a fight?
“By the way, you don’t have the right to refuse . I already got permission from the Divine God . ”
“Divine God?”
I scowled from hearing an unfamiliar word, but Scala didn’t care to explain and instead took out sothing from within her bust . It was a small gray sphere that could be held in one hand . Scala took that sphere and smashed it on the ground . The sphere got smashed up and created a similar magic circle under her feet .
“Well then, we will et the day after tomorrow . I think you know well what’s gonna happen if you run away . ”
“H-Hey! I told you to wait!”
Leaving behind her a threatening remark, Scala disappeared . I remained stretching my hand to the place where she was standing just now, unable to process the current situation . Left alone in the middle of the blazed residential area street, I kept gazing at that place for a while .
What was that just now...?
Scala who ca and left like a storm didn’t give the opportunity to catch up with what happened . The only thing I was certain of was that, things will surely get troubleso soon enough .
“What is wrong with that woman?”
“Master, I suggest you tell Lina about what just happened . Since the other party was a God, she could help us with the useful information . ”
“Yeah, you’re right . ”
I agreed with ru who only listened to what happened, because the phone was inside my pocket, and headed back ho . Let’s call Lina after I go back ho . I’m feeling even hotter now that I kept standing in my place for too long . But still, what am I supposed to do now...?
“The future doesn’t seem very promising . ”
Thinking about Scala, I walked back ho with heavy steps . ru cheered up while shouting “you can do it, Desu! Master!”
Well, I have no choice anyway, do I? Encouraged by ru’s cheering, I made my resolve and hurried back .

Photo peeping .
“Hey, ru . What do you think of these new earphones?”
“They’re very good, Desu, master . I can hear your voice much better, Desu . ”
“That’s great . Next ti, I think I will buy a small cara . ”
“Really, Desu?”
“It must be inconvenient for you not to see the outside . ”
“Thank you very much, Desu! I can finally observe my surroundings, Desu . ”
“But still, don’t take photos of people secretly . ”
“I won’t, Desu! I will only peep on them for the sake of survey, Desu . ”
“So you’re still going to peep . ”
