Against the Inevitable Destiny
Chapter 28 - Shiori
[The next day ]
Right now I am walking alone, passing through various doors at Yozora High School.
What the hell am I doing? Walking away of course, didn't I tell you, aren't you listening?
Okay, okay sorry. I'm just a little upset.
Well, I was checking some rooms because Scarlet senpai told me to do it.
And the worst thing is that I can only do it myself. Well, she told Mei with another job so I couldn't be with her.
Sigh, he did this on purpose.
He might be angry because I didn't pay attention to his lesson anymore.
While I was complaining about my work, I paused for a moment because I felt a familiar-looking energy.
‘Maya? why is he here? does he want to see me? But, why would he just shut up if he was looking for me?’
I murmured after sensing the familiar-looking energy.
Yes, indeed, the energy that I feel at this moment I have felt from Maya. So, it's possible that the energy I'm feeling is coming from Maya.
Thinking about it, I started walking to where this source of energy came from.
‘This is strange, why his energy seems weaker than usual. Did he suppress his power?’
As I walked slowly, I felt the energy become clearer.
It was just that, compared to the Maya energy, that energy seemed weaker. No, it's still weak.
‘I think he's here.’
I stopped at one of the doors.
‘But wait, this voice.... violin? When did Maya learn to play the violin?’
I opened the door, though,
“May-”
I stopped my voice.
His reason? quite obviously not, the view at this time is really beautiful.
‘A angel?’
‘Wait, who is he? She's not Maya. But his energy...why does he have the same energy as Maya? What does this have to do with Maya? Is he too…. No. gabe. Thats impossible. I can clearly distinguish their current energy.’
I said in my heart.
This aura...It's like Sho's just that, why isn't his energy the same?
Well, no need to think about it now. I'm more fascinated by what I see and hear right now.
‘The violin game is very beautiful.’
I muttered
His violin game was able to make me put my mind.
……
On stage, I could see a beautiful girl, no, a charming angel playing the violin. Both the performances and the music performances are equally beautiful. I forgot to even blink my eyes.
Sensing my presence, he opened his eyes, looked at me then smiled. I could only freeze in my place, returning his gaze.
We stared at each other as if time was frozen. It only lasted a few seconds in the real world because he did not stop his violin game. He opened his mouth and sent me a message.
I couldn't hear his voice, but from the movement of his lips I could tell that he said “friend me playing music”
I can guess a little bit. She probably wanted me to accompany her by playing the piano, because I saw the piano next to her. In addition, the tone he plays should have another instrument, the piano tone.
It makes me wonder. How did he know I was good at playing the piano? And does he think I can follow his rhythm? Is he challenging me or what?
Well, since it's a challenge, let's make this angel fall.
In an instant, I sat down, put my hand on the piano. And. I followed her tone when she didn't stop playing her violin.
Smiles are formed when we play our instruments.
Her voice? Needless to say, it is a heavenly voice. After all, I wasn't kidding when I said that I was good at playing the piano. Maybe if I intend to take the world championship, I will occupy the top 3 easily.
……
……
A few minutes passed while we were playing music.
I saw him intending to introduce himself. But before I could introduce myself, he said,
“Riyu. I know your name. Yami and my brother have told me everything about you.” The girl said.
“Brother?” I asked him. Well actually I have speculations about his brother, I just want him to confirm it.
“Sho, he is my brother.”
He confirmed.
As I thought, they are brothers. Well, their auras were almost similar although not very similar either. Difficult explain.
In their case, these are called non-identical or fraternal twins? If I'm not wrong.
Well, the point is I understand what he's saying.
“So yes. What did they tell you about me?”
I asked him. Why do I feel dejavu?
Well, regardless of my thoughts, the girl started to tell me how she met Yami and her brother, Sho.
In Yami's story, I was positioned as a villain, whereas in Sho's story I was considered a good person. And when I asked her what she thought of me? She replied that I was attractive, and she said it while teasing me a little.
“So it's like that. Um, may I know your name?”
I asked her, remembering that I didn't know the girl's name.
“Ah, sorry, my name is Shiori Shori. Just call me Shio or Shiori.”
He apologized and told me his name.
I asked him.
This is my first doubt.
Indeed, it could have been that I had misguided her mouth movements, but it was impossible after I had played music with her.
He challenged me to play the piano. That means he knows that I can play the piano, and he can match his movements.
“Akasa's aunt told me about it. He said that you can already play the piano when you are 7 years old. And your game can even beat the professionals.”
She smiled sweetly to tell him why.
“You mean my mother? So she had visited the Shori family?”
many wonder.
Honestly, I didn't expect that my mother ever visited Shori's family. In fact, 5 large families only meet in person under certain conditions.
“Un.”
Shio answered.
She started telling me how she met my mother and how she helped the Shori family so much.
And from the story, I came to understand where Sho's spirit came from when he heard that I could give my mother research data.
That fact doesn't change my mind, I'll still give you the data if Sho meets my expectations.
After all, there must be a special reason why mother did not provide her research data, and I can slightly guess the reason.
……
Actually, most of what Shio said was about how she got along well with my mom. And well, as always, my mom always bragged about how great I was.
I don't refuse to be praised by someone, it's just that my mother is a different case. Honestly, I often have problems because he brags too much about me.
Hah. I thought about it again.
The longer I talk to Shio, the more I feel she overlaps with someone.
‘She was the previous virtual version.’
I muttered in my heart.
I remember Maya before my parents disappeared. He was quite lively and filled with smiles at that moment, similar to the current Shio. Besides, I can't help but think about the energy he put out.
……
[30 Minutes later ]
30 Minutes have passed, we chatted pretty well.
I want to talk to him again, but I have to finish my job. So I had to stop our conversation.
Before I left, he said that he would meet me again which I replied “certain”.
Actually I don't know when we'll see each other again because I'm too busy with my work.
……
……
……
……
[After the lesson is over, Yozora High School Gate ]
I froze at the moment because I didn't expect this.
“That's how, my father said that I should also come with my brother. So, take care of me from now on, Riyu.”
Shio said sweetly.
Only after seeing her again did I understand what she meant by we were about to meet soon.
“Are you surprised? What if we do ‘hal it’ again?”
Shio said with a seductive smile.
‘Sial, why did the girl even make a misunderstanding like this?’
And sure enough, hearing Shio's words, the two men in front of me frowned slightly.
And the girl beside me, of course she was the same, maybe even more so because she gave off a terrifying aura.
“Yu, we have to talk.”
Mei said coldly, pulling my ears hard.
“Aduh, ouch, ouch, May, sick. It's not what you think it is. Ow."
"You'll explain it as soon as we get there."
Mei said coldly. His eyes had turned terrifying.
“Wait, sister May.”
Shio tries to stop Mei.
Right, my angel you are my savior. Please clear up this misunderstanding.
“It... I, we, I am guilty here.”.
Shio said with a reddened face and a little doubt as if we had done something not to do.
I changed to think he was a fallen angel. He is a pure Succubus.
“Aduh.”
Mei pulled my ears even stronger.
