Pirates: The first partner is Makima

The night fell.

In the square of Foss Town, people gathered together, singing and dancing around a huge bonfire.

Everyone spontaneously took out their own furniture to set up tables, and the owner of the tavern also sponsored unlimited beer and rum.

A table that attracted much attention.

Old Ross stroked his beard with puzzled eyes.

He couldn't understand why a young and beautiful woman suddenly appeared in his grandson's room.

Machima, who was sitting opposite the table, was serene and peaceful, and had just behaved very politely in front of the old man, which made Old Ross appreciate her more and more.

(Well... the previous episode doesn't matter. I just didn't expect that boy to be so capable that he could kidnap such a beautiful girl.

This time he came back and really brought me a big surprise, huhuhuhuhu...)

Old Ross laughed in his heart. He thought that there was nothing more satisfying than seeing Luo Zhen, whom he regarded as his own grandson, find a good woman to accompany him in his later years.

Unconsciously, the look in Old Ross's eyes when looking at Machima had changed from doubt to doting on his grandson's wife.

One after another, delicious dishes were served on the table, and some friends who had played with Luo Zhen when they were young came forward one after another, making the atmosphere hot.

Machima was watching silently from the side.

She was very curious about Luo Zhen's mystery, and she kept analyzing it in her heart, and she was also building up her mentality to face this strange world in the future.

(... the character of a hero in a storybook.)

Machima judged in her heart.

At this time, a brown-haired young man put his arm around Luo Zhen's shoulder and asked excitedly with a gossipy look on his face: "Brother Luo Zhen, who is the red-haired lady over there?"

Luo Zhen glanced at Machima, who seemed to have created a peaceful space, and smiled slightly.

"My partner."

This simple sentence caused ripples in Machima's eyes, who had amazing hearing.

The friends around him all started to make a noise, and each of them put on an expression that all men could understand, and spoke without restraint.

"It can't be Brother Luo Zhen! You can actually go on an adventure on the sea with such a lovely lady! It's so romantic... I'm so moved!!"

"Hey, Rogers... It's about time for you to confess to Jenny.

Why don't you take this opportunity?"

"Hmm...!? You don't have to mind my business! I'll seize the opportunity myself!"

"You're so weak... You may be single for the rest of your life! Hahaha!!"

Luo Zhen smiled and drank the beer in the glass. His bold and unrestrained appearance made the girls in the town passing by show their admiration and infatuation.

After chatting for a while, Luo Zhen left the battle on the table and made an unexpected move.

Machima, who had been keeping her eyes down, felt the movement around her and couldn't help but look sideways.

"What's the matter?"

Luo Zhen put down two large glasses of beer and smiled.

"Can't I just sit here if I'm fine?"

"..."

Machima turned her head and looked at Luo Zhen quietly.

Luo Zhen felt no pressure at all. He just looked up at the men and women dancing hand in hand around the bonfire in the distance. Everyone's face was filled with enthusiastic smiles. In this world, no matter which country it was, it seemed that no one could refuse the banquet.

Everyone's daily hard work and all kinds of unhappy things seemed to disappear at the moment when the object was opened. People in this world seemed to be very nervous.

But it didn't feel bad.

Luo Zhen smiled and said, "Instead of thinking about your sick world, why not experience a new life in this world. The banquet is very hot, why do you make yourself so lonely?"

Machima looked up at the moonlight surrounded by stars in the sky. The night in this world seemed to be more magnificent than the world she was in. The wind was more charming and full of the smell of the sea. Although the surrounding environment was noisy, it gave people an inexplicable appeal.

"?!"

Machima felt her hand being held up by a large and warm hand, and then a whole glass of beer was stuffed into her hand, and then she saw Luo Zhen's hearty smile, his eyes were very serious.

"It's over now, don't think too much.

This is my first night back in Foss Town, everyone has made full preparations for me, such a gathering, such a lively and noisy, I will not allow my future partner to feel lonely and empty here alone."

Bang!

The sound of wooden wine glasses colliding.

Luo

Zhen smiled and said, "I know a little about Miss Machima's vast knowledge, and I want to learn from her now. You can't refuse what I say."

Machima opened her eyes slightly. Her soft face and the expression at the moment made her look very cute.

Machima believed that humans were loyal and easy to manipulate, smart and stupid, and they also liked her very much. She liked humans very much, just like humans liked dogs.

Perhaps she had had delusions a long time ago, but the stupidity and arrogance of humans caused her wishes to be distorted.

But the man in front of her was different.

Mysterious, powerful, and his presence made people unable to take their eyes away. Obviously, he had always used smell to distinguish others. But for some reason, Machima felt that she could not remember him by smell alone, but needed to be more careful.

Luo Zhen drank.

Machima also drank without knowing why. After drinking, she drank the wine in one gulp.

"Haha, Miss Machima is really a big drinker."

Luo Zhen praised happily, and then he moved in front of Machima.

The distance between the two was so close that their bangs touched each other, and they could even feel each other's breathing.

Machima did not resist, but her face was slightly moved, and the calm expression that had been smiling all the time was finally different.

"Then the next step is the dance session. Miss Machima is the most suitable to be my dance partner.

It's the same as before, you can't refuse it."

Luo Zhen took Machima's hand and strode towards the crowd on the dance floor next to the bonfire.

Machima looked at her hand being held and then looked at the tall back in front of her. The long-empty heart seemed to be invaded by a strange feeling.

It felt that she had been manipulated by this man since she came to this world.

She was completely unable to perceive and see the man's heart and thoughts.

He seemed to know her very well, but she knew nothing about him.

It has been a long time since Makima had felt this feeling of not being able to figure out the other person and being unable to control herself.

Such a wonderful feeling...

I don't know how to describe it in words...

The music was lingering, the dance floor was hot, the distance between the two was so close, and the contact was so close.

(Luo Zhen... a strange man. But it is worth observing, let me see what kind of person you are.)

Makima thought so in her heart, and the corners of her mouth finally raised slightly.
