Manga Born to Be King

　　——Sagara Miyori.

　　"Wow~ looks~ looks delicious~"

　　Aica immediately picked up the juice and lightning puffs in front of her and stuffed them into her mouth.In the blink of an eye, the corners of his mouth were covered with strawberry cream.

　　"Yi, what's the matter with you dressed like the champion of the drag contest? Although I don't really want to know, let's- just ask."

　　Ya Yi changed color suddenly, and put the iced coffee on the table.

　　"Who is the champion of the drag contest with you! Nangong, can't you see that this shocking dress is cosplaying from the bottom of your heart! I have never heard of such a well-known bizarre talk, it's so uneducated!"

　　"Ah - alright, alright. I know. You're Aju who counts plates at COSPLAY, right? Hurry up and play the 'one plate~' joke to see."

　　"Are you mistaken? How could I be a monster like COSPLAY, wouldn't it be a waste of money to break a plate? Our restaurant specializes in catering."

　　"Isn't it Aju? Otherwise you are cosplaying something..."

　　"Hmph, I'm Sadako! Curse~curse~~record~video~tape~"

　　Mei wiggled her hands exaggeratedly like she was swimming in freestyle, as if she was imitating crawling.Once again, Nangong Xiao couldn't grasp the point of the rant.

　　"Aicai, I came to Meiyi's cafe today, maybe I want to borrow COSPLAY clothes from her...?"

　　"That's right! Sagara-senpai, I mentioned to you before that I want to borrow a monster costume from you in order to hold the Linhai School's courage test."

　　"Hmm. As long as it's the clothes in our store, you can choose them all."

　　"That's great~! Thank you, senpai!"

　　"No need to thank you. As long as you can make the school's activities more fulfilling. A student who loves the school like me, I'm afraid you won't be able to find another one. As long as you remember to use huge props on the courage test meeting. The handwriting clearly indicates that the sponsor is our "LYRICAL☆SISTERS"."

　　The budget-conscious Mei did not forget to seize the opportunity to advertise.So, the search for Yokai costumes took two hours.

　　Nangongxiao ran to the stairs of Yayi's house and sat down. The dressing room located in the back of the house on the second floor kept a considerable number of cosplay costumes.

　　Aica tried on all kinds of clothes for Nangong Xiao to see and discuss... Then try on another set of clothes for discussion... The same process kept repeating, and the time passed minute by minute.Now Aica is changing into other sets of COSPLAY clothes in the dressing room.

　　"Hey...is President Tiandao still picking?"

　　Mei, who was busy at the cafe, also went upstairs.

　　"What's the matter, Nangong? You look like you were kicked out of the room by your teenage daughter, and you look like a haggard middle-aged Abo who can't do anything."

　　"...Please don't use that extraordinarily realistic metaphor."

　　"Have you found any clothes you like in my collection?"

　　"I didn't expect it to be quite difficult. Every outfit has a cute design style, so it's hard to find scary clothes. Aica is still trying to find it, I don't know if I have found the right one."

　　At this moment, there was the sound of the locker room opening from behind, and then the sound of footsteps approaching along the corridor.

　　"Xiao~same~study~"

　　Aina's voice became extremely low and vague.

　　The moment Nangong Xiao turned around, a strange man with a huge orange head suddenly appeared behind him. The orange head had terrifying black triangular eyes and a bloody mouth.

　　It turned out to be a pumpkin, and the Pumpkin Freak walked all the way with a big head that was dozens of centimeters wide and kept colliding with the walls on both sides.The body in tight clothes seemed to have an unstable center of gravity, and stumbled close to Nangong Xiao's eyes with a staggering step like a drunken tincture of cheese.

　　"Aicai can't see the front~"

　　"The president of the student council of Shenliuyuan Academy is really not a man, and he chose a costume for Halloween. The taste is different."

　　"Be careful of falling!"

　　"My head is so heavy~ I can't walk well~"

......................................

　　"Although you have a unique vision, it's a pity that you don't have the charm of this outfit. The headgear should be worn a little more firmly!"

　　Mei stood in front of Aica, jumped up and pressed the pumpkin head down hard.The pumpkin head sank with a bang, covering Aica's head obediently.

　　"Yeah!"

　　Aina's face was exposed from the mouth of the pumpkin head.

　　"That's what makes Halloween the protagonist, the life-size jack-o-lantern! Trick or treat!"

　　Aina swayed while pulling the cape tied to the pumpkin head.

　　"If, how~? Does it suit me~? Does this dress look scary~?"

　　—She wouldn't really want to wear this outfit at a dare?

　　Nangong Xiao tried to imagine the picture of Aicai jumping out of the dark graveyard wearing a huge pumpkin.

　　"It's pretty scary indeed. It's pretty scary in many ways to come across a pumpkin like this on the road at night..."

　　"Really! Yeah! That's how the first outfit was decided~!"

　　Ai Cai jumped up with joy...

　　"Aww!"

　　But at the moment of landing, the center of gravity was unstable, and the whole person fell backwards in a posture similar to lowering the waist, and the pumpkin head slammed into the floor with a sound.

　　"Hey~~! It's so heavy that people can't get up~ help~ life~ ah~"

　　Aica kept dancing and struggling desperately, like a tortoise turned over.

　　"..."

　　forget it..

Chapter 735

　　Nangong Xiao carried the huge pumpkin head on his back and several sets of cosplay costumes in front of him, all the way from the cafe in Yayi back to school.As long as she sees passers-by who are scared by the pumpkin head and shy away, Aicai will happily exclaim: "It's good to be afraid~"

　　By the time I finally finished moving things and said goodbye to Ai Cai, it was already twilight when the sun was setting.When turning into the corner in front of the apartment, the back of a young girl directly caught Nangong Xiao's eyes.

　　Teenage girl holds shopping bags in supermarket.A long piece of onion sticks out.

　　It was a terribly sultry hot day, but the girl was wearing a long-sleeved black top and a thick knitted sweater, with a flat face with clear soup, and her fair neck was faintly exposed at the back.

　　- Yurina!

　　The girl stopped abruptly, perhaps noticing the movement behind her, she turned around.A mature face and fair skin.It was indeed Yurina.For some reason, she was wearing a mask on her face and stared at Nangong Xiao with listless eyes.

　　"Hey, Xiao. You're still the same, with a lifeless expression on your face."

　　Yurina pulled down the mask with her fingers and said, with a feeling of displeasure in her tone.

　　"Does life get in your way—you go shopping? Not for dinner supplies?"

　　"None of your business. It's my freedom to buy whatever you want. Are you trying to investigate me now?"

　　"I'm not investigating, okay?"

　　She, who is still a middle school student, moved to the room next to Nangong Xiao in order to prepare for the entrance examination of Shenliu Academy.

　　But——behind her pitiful and beautiful face, there was a terrifying malice hidden.

　　"Hehe, what's the matter with you? Brother Nangong Xiao."

　　Yurina had a provocative smile on her face.

　　"I really want all the ugly brothers and sisters in the world who are fighting for their inheritance to see you as a good example."

　　"You must be so sour when you speak... Seeing that you are wearing a mask, shouldn't it be a cold?"

　　Hearing this, Yurina showed an expression of gnashing her teeth in annoyance.

　　"That abominable electrical appliance store... actually sent a special air conditioner for the freezer warehouse. Is this a deliberate mockery of me? What corresponds to the freeze-drying technology. I almost got frozen into frozen tuna!"

　　"It sounds inexplicable. In short, you have air-conditioning disease, right? Although the weather is really hot, the air-conditioning is too strong, which is not good for your health."

　　"You're very long-winded - listen to me, Akatsuki. You must think carefully when choosing an air conditioner."

　　After Yurina put on her mask again, she turned around and walked to her room.

　　After Nangongxiao returned to his room, he immediately took off his clothes and threw them into the laundry basket.Although it was still a bit sultry, it was much more comfortable than the deadly high temperature during the day. After returning to the living room and changing into clean clothes, I felt very comfortable.

　　Nangong Xiao glanced at the low table inadvertently, the opened textbook and notebook were still on it.

　　"As a result, Ya's work progress is still in place today... Just give her a call."

　　At this time, she should be alone in the girls' dormitory.Remember to apologize to her for not being able to accompany her to finish her homework as promised, and the expected trip to Linhai School.

　　Nangong Xiao thought about what topic to talk to her, and reached for the phone on the table.As soon as he touched the phone, the ringtone rang.

　　I grabbed the phone and saw that the LCD screen displayed..."The caller number is not displayed".

　　The first thing Nangong Xiao thought of was an unknown person who called himself "sister".

　　The identity of the real younger sister has been revealed, and there can be no boring people pretending to be "sisters" nowadays. It's just that some people just don't want to show their phone numbers.

　　Nangong Xiao pressed the call button to answer the call.

　　"Hello."

　　But the other end of the microphone was silent.

　　——It was a prank call?

　　Just when Nangong Xiao was about to hang up, a voice came from the other end of the microphone.

　　"Hello? Can you hear me?"

　　The moment he heard that voice, Nangong Xiao was so nervous that his entire back stiffened.It was not an ordinary voice, but it was very familiar.

　　From the other end of the phone came the voice of a mechanical girl processed by a voice changer.Without a doubt, it was the voice of that "sister".

　　"How are you doing lately - Brother Nangong Xiao."

　　"Who are you?"

　　"I'm Nangong Xiao's younger brother's younger sister. The only younger sister who was separated from you when I was a child."

　　"Ya, it's you right? Please stop this boring prank."

　　"Brother, do you still believe in that kind of thing?"
