Chapter 116
Chapter 116: Playing with Rouga .
After finding a place where no one was around, I used my teleportation skill to teleport to a good place along with Saya and Rouga to play .
“We arrived . ”
“Yeey!!”
Once we teleported safely, Rouga happily started running around in the open field . Dogs like this type of vast places . Although, Rouga is a wolf . The place where we teleported was a vast green land continuing to the horizon . The weather was ideal and the wind was gentle; a perfect environment for exercising . Having such a scenery in front of her eyes, Saya let out a voice of admiration .
“Wow! This is amazing! Where are we?”
“I don’t know . I just teleported to a random location . ”
Although I was sure that we were not in Japan anymore, I couldn’t tell exactly where we were . I could just look up our location if I wanted to, but I was not interested enough in knowing about it . The location doesn’t matter as long as I can just teleport anywhere I want .
“What are you going to do now?”
“Let’s see, let’s start by doing some warming-up exercises . ”
I took out a rubber ball out of nowhere and showed it to Saya .
“That’s a normal ball, right?”
“Well, yeah . ”
She sounded a little bit disappointed because I told her that we were going to play a weird game for dogs earlier . The ball that I was holding was indeed a normal rubber ball . Although, Rouga is originally a monster wolf, thus she would not be satisfied with a game that a normal dog would like . Once Rouga noticed that I was holding a ball in my hand, she rushed towards me .
“Alright, Rouga! I’m throwing it . ”
“Hurry up! Hurry up~!”
As she fixed her sights on the ball in my hand, she waved her tail excessively while waiting for the moment I threw the ball . As she made sure that she was ready, I pulled my arm back and…
“Go fetch it!”
I threw the ball with all my might .
“Yeaay!!”
The ball flew with a speed that barely made it visible to the normal eye and went straight to the horizon after leaving a sharp sound behind . Following the ball, Rouga rushed towards it with nearly the same speed . As she is a monster who excels at speed more than the fighting ability, her speed could reach a tremendous degree .
No matter how far and strongly I throw the ball, she could fetch it without many troubles . A wind caused by Rouga’s rapid motion surrounded us which drove Saya to cover her eyes instinctively . The next moment she opened them again, both the ball and Rouga were nowhere to be seen .
“Eh? What happened just now?”
It looked like she couldn’t follow what happened . Saya was making an expression which showed that she was overcome by surprise . I only answered her saying that she will know soon enough and turned back to gaze in the direction in which I threw the ball . I would already see something rushing towards us from there .
“I’m back!!”
Arriving with an abnormal speed, Rouga halted her steps the moment she reached us . The ball was in her mouth, of course . I received the ball from her, patted her head and praised her, then gave the ball to Saya .
“So that’s what we’re playing . Here, take the ball . ”
“What are you playing!?”
As I was handing her the ball, she exclaimed with a confused expression . She suddenly took the ball from me reflexively and switched her sight from the ball to me .
“You just have to throw it like I just did . ”
“Um . no, don’t ask for the impossible!!”
She immediately refused saying that throwing it like me is impossible, but even I know that much . There was no way I’d ask an ordinary person like her to do something like that .
“Just throw it . Rouga is waiting for you, you know . ”
“Woof!! (Hurry up!!)”
“Uu…”
Urged by me and Rouga’s anticipating expression, she couldn’t refuse in the end and desperately threw the ball as far as she could .
“E-Ei!!”
She threw that ball like any normal girl would throw a ball, the ball drew a parabola in the air and was about to fall down after flying a few meters when — suddenly, it flew with an unbelievable speed towards the horizon .
“Eh!? How!?”
“Waay!!”
Sara was left astonished from the obviously strange ball trajectory, but Rouga didn’t give pay her a mind and followed the ball . Maybe I pushed it a little too far . Guess I’ll have to work on my controlling abilities . The reason the ball flew away was that I used wind magic to push it further . I asked Saya to throw the ball like me because I was intending to blow away the ball just like I did now . Saya turned to look at me with her stunned gaze .
“See . I told you that it will be fine . ”
“Don’t startle me like that!!”
———————————————————————————————
After repeating the same game as well as trying some other games with Rouga, Saya and I took a little break .
“I’ve said this already, but Rouga-chan is amazing . ”
“Well, she is a monster, after all . ”
Both of us were sitting on the grassland, having an idle talk while watching Rouga running around with her ball, full of energy . She didn’t want to stop playing, so I’m currently moving the ball with my【Wind Magic】 .
“That was fun…”
“Yeah…”
Unlike my casual expression, Saya was making an exhausted face . After we got tired of playing with Rouga’s ‘catch the ball,’ we used a frisbee instead and played inside a giant maze that I made . We spent a considerable amount of time playing .
“Rouga-chan; she doesn’t get tired…”
“Yeah…”
A short moment of silence followed my mutter, however, both of us remained seated and was relaxing . It felt nice to exercise in summer, honestly . It wouldn’t hurt to spend some days like this every now and then . I placed my elbow on my knee while thinking when Saya suddenly interrupted the silence .
“This feels strange . ”
“What do you mean?”
I asked her back before turning to see her gazing at the distance her serene eyes .
“It feels strange when I think about my past self when I couldn’t even speak to a boy properly . ”
“Well, the only boy you speak to all this time is only me though . ”
While replying to her gloomy remark with a little joke, she puffed her cheeks and got angry at me saying that she will talk with more boys in the future . Well, she wasn’t wrong when she made that remark .
“Well, I do feel the same way as well . ”
Even though I couldn’t predict in the past that I’d be this active today . I don’t think that anyone could predict that as having my entire class summoned to another world isn’t something that happens very often . Saya turned to look at me while I was reminiscing the past and continued .
“Thank you for what you did . Let’s continue to get along like this . ”
“?!”
She revealed a fine and clear smile . I almost fell in love with her, from the radiance that was emanating from her, but I quickly activated my skill 【Dense Protagonist】 . I don’t know how this story would have progressed if I weren’t this dense . I joined my hands together, as I prayed to Gods above for making me dense, when suddenly Rouga got tired from playing around, and jumped at me .
“I know this! It’s called being a normie!!”
“Just where do you hear those words?”
It was probably Karen who taught her this kind of vocabulary . Thanks to her, I was able to come back to my senses . I feel like something like this had happened already . I turned to take a glance at Saya . Apparently, she didn’t realize a thing . It’s scary to be an airhead . Let’s just be careful next time . When I nodded my head, deciding to stay on guard for the next time, Rouga started tapping me with her front leg .
“Chief! The ball!!”
I slightly shifted my gaze to where Rouga was pointing and saw the ball halting on the ground . It looks like my concentration got interrupted .
“You still want to play?”
“Yes! More! More!”
Rouga waved her tail while asking me to play with her for longer . Very well, it can’t be helped now .
“Alright, go fetch it!!”
“Yeeay!!”
I threw the ball once again and Rouga rushed towards the direction of the ball . After making sure that the ball and Rouga disappeared from my vision, I turned to Saya .
“By the way . I didn’t reply to what you said earlier . ”
“Eh?”
She didn’t get what I was talking about, but I didn’t mind her bewilderment and continued .
“I think the same way . Let’s continue to get along . ”
Saya is one of my few close friends . When I replied to her with my feelings of gratitude, she smiled back and nodded firmly . I wonder when was the last time when I felt this way in the middle of the hot weather of summer . I dislike summer, honestly, but just for today, I thought that it wasn’t that bad .
