Elena kept her distance from me on our way back.

"Elena"

"...."

"Elena"

"..."

"Elena?"

"..."

Don't ignore me!

"Elena"

"...."

"El. He is calling you"

"I can hear him"

"Then reply to me"

"Tell him that I don't want to talk with him"

What type of sulking is this?

"Elena, listen. I am sorry"

"Why are you apologizing?" 

Elena and Selena were walking in front of me, and Elena was talking with me without looking back at me.

"I touched you..."

"It's not like I am angry about that"

"Then why are you ignoring me?"

"Who said I am ignoring you?"

You clearly are!

"Then why are you not looking at me?"

"Can't I be a little embarrassed after what happened?"

She is right!

"So you are not angry?"

"I am not"

"Wait a minute! What are you two talking about?" Selena quipped.

"It's nothing" we both said in unison.

"What happened when we were eating? Tell me"

There is no way we can tell that!

"I will tell you when we get home"

You will tell her?!

We are almost near the school. My home is about a 15-minute walk from here. As for Elena's...

"Hey, how about you two come to my home? I will ask dad to drop you home"

"No, thanks. We will take a taxi from here and did you forget that your dad is still on the trip?" 

"Oh, right!" 

As soon as the taxi arrived, Elena dashed in. Selena also sat--

"Hey" Selena said, pulling my shirt.

"What are you doing?"

"El and I are same'

"Why are you saying this again?"

"El and I have a similar taste"

"What do you mean?"

"I like what El likes"

"...."

"I am giving you a big hint. I am sure you are smart enough to understand it" she said with a mischievous smile, letting go of me, and closing the taxi's door.

It's been 5 minutes since they have gone, but I can't forget what Selena said.

'El and I have similar tastes', 'I like what El likes'.

"Does that mean what I think it is?"

I can feel my cheeks getting red by thinking that.

The same thing happened when Elena confessed to me.

"No, wait!"

I might be mistaken. I mean...we just met today for the first time.

"And she was ready to kill me in the morning...so why the sudden change of heart?"

I don't remember doing anything.

Did Elena hear what she said?

Maybe I am just misunderstanding it?

"She just said that they have similar tastes"

Don't think too much.

Even if it means that...let's not think about that!

I thought about that on my entire walk home.

I took a long bath when I reached home.

"I am changing"

My thoughts are changing. Until 2 months ago, I would have never thought about this...

"I have changed"

I promised myself that I will never love a girl other than Elena, but now...I love 3 girls. My teacher, my cousin, and AI.

I used to like short baths, but now I enjoy taking long baths.

Is this what it means to be an a.d.u.l.t? 

Will I change more?

"What if..."

What if...one day...I stop loving Elena?

"No!"

No! Please no! Please don't do that!

Das! You should never stop loving Elena.

Elena is the only one I can't leave! I can't live without her.

If there is a future where Elena is not with me then I will destroy that future!

If Elena is not with me, then there is no point of living.

I will never let her go anywhere.

There are also those men who are trying to kill the Edens family.

What if they attacked us one day?

What if they attacked Elena? Or Serah!

What if I am sleeping here nicely, and they are being killed!

I need to find those men and end them.

"I will kill them all"

I will kill everyone who tries to hurt my loved ones.

I will kill them--

Burst~~ Burst~~

"Huh?"

What just happened?

Why did the lamp and the clock just explode?

"Das, dinner is ready...what's with the smell?"

"The lamp and the clock...I don't know, but they just exploded"

"That's weird. Short-circuits are very rare these days"

"I will try to repair them tonight"

"No need. I will order new ones, they are pretty old anyway. 

"Fine"

After dinner, I got a message from Elena asking me to log in to LWO.

I immediately logged into LWO.

Ricky and Rikka were already there, but there was no trace of Elena.

"Hello Adas"

"No Ricky. Call him King Adas" Rikka remarked.

"Spare me the formalities"

"But you are the king of World 4"

They are acting like that because I am the king of world 4. Just how will they act if they get to know that I will be the king of the very country we live in.

"Are you going to participate in the World 2 event?" Ricky asked.

"Yeah, I will. What about you guys?"

"Well, we can't participate as a party member but yeah, we will join you"

"Party is not allowed?"

"We can team up but the party is not allowed since there will be only one winner"

"Did they reveal what type of event it is?"

"Yeah, it's a treasure hunt event"

"By the name, I guess...we need to find a treasure?"

"Yeah, something like that"

[There will be treasures, and we need to find them. The points will be distributed as per the treasure obtained, and the player who has the highest points will win]

"As expected of Lily"

I am excited for the event.

This will be the first proper event for me.

The World Zero event was...well, it was easy?

I mean, I really didn't get to do anything. 

The World two event will be a week-long. I don't think all the players will participate due to the difference in time zone and the duration of the event.

I am sure I will get to meet the remaining top players and on the top of all, that mysterious 1st player.

No matter how strong they are, I will be the one to win that event.
