Echelon Systems
Towards Koichi Prefecture


Tonight Nathan decides to leave for Koichi Prefecture with Hirota, although the clock shows at 1 pm and they have to travel approximately 11 hours by car.


Amidst the journey due to exhaustion after spending time with Eimi, Nathan slowly closes his eyes and falls asleep in the back seat.


Realizing that his master wanted to rest, Hirota turned off the car lights and turned down the AC temperature to make Nathan feel more comfortable.


To fill the silence Hirota set classical music that clearly his tone will not interfere with Nathan's rest time.


Hirota continued to drive her car carefully through the cold air at night and stayed awake as if she did not feel sleepy at all.


By morning Hirota pulled over for a moment to fill the gasoline that had been thinned at the gas station. Coinciding with Hirota who was filling up with gasoline, Nathan woke up from his sleep and checked the clock that had shown at 8 am.


Feeling that his stomach needs to be filled, Nathan decided to get out of the car when he saw there was a supermarket at the gas station.


"Good morning sir... Is there anything I can help you with?" Hirota said when she saw Nathan coming out of the car and stretching his body.


Nathan patted his stomach and smiled at Hirota. "Hungry..." Nathan's reply.


"I'm sorry sir, let me buy you some food!" Hirota said with a face that felt guilty for ignoring something as small as this and did not anticipate it beforehand.


"If you go and buy food, who will fill the gas? Just-there's..." Nathan replies while patting Hirota on the shoulder before heading to the supermarket.


Hirota clenched her hand and thought that she had completely failed the task that Emilia had given her directly.


Unwilling to repeat such a mistake again, Hirota immediately writes in his notebook about what time Nathan woke up and the habit of being hungry after waking up.


Nathan now buys five packs of Onigiri, Fruit Sandwich, One Cup Ramen, and is eating them in the supermarket while waiting for Hirota to fill up the gas.


The presence of Nathan in the supermarket is clearly attracting the attention of the visitors, especially for the students in the area who happened to stop by to buy food.


Like a public figure, secretly the visitors at the supermarket took pictures of Nathan who was clearly known by the man.


Even blatantly there are some high school students who put letters on Nathan's desk, until there are a total of ten more letters.


But clearly Nathan ignored the letters given to him. Not because Nathan doesn't like it, but he just wants to keep his image as a cool guy.


'Damn, if only there were no laws and manners in this country of course I would have brought those school girls. Huhhhhh....' Nathan's inner being was the complete opposite of his current cold expression.


The ordeal for Nathan now feels so heavy that he has to ignore the Japanese High School girls he has been dreaming of. But for what to do, there were a lot of adults there and he didn't want to lose his life as a business man.


Finally, unable to bear the ordeal, Nathan hastily finished his meal and does not forget to buy food for Hirota.


"Hurry up, we're getting out of here right now!" Nathan said as he gave Hirota a shopping bag before getting into the car.


Receiving a request from Nathan, Hirota could only nod despite being a little confused as to why her master wanted to rush away.


Hirota did not think too much about it and agreed to Nathan's request even though their car was not fully filled with gasoline.


"Why don't you eat, don't you like it?" Nathan asked as he saw Hirota who had only put down the food he had bought before.


"It's not so, sir, but I'm driving and I can't eat..." Reply Hirota.


"Is there not an auto pilot mode? Quickly finish that meal now!" Nathan said with half-open eyes.


Hearing Nathan's stressed tone, Hirota quickly activates the auto pilot mode on the car and eats the food Nathan has bought despite breaking traffic rules.


Nathan smiled faintly as he saw Hirota wanting to eat. The man then closed the bulkhead which made Hirota unable to hear or see what she was doing behind.


"Well, when do you keep quiet, Echelon?" Nathan asked while watching his watch.


"Does your master still remember me? I thought you had forgotten..." Echelon responded by insinuating Nathan who had not spoken to him for some time.


"I'm sorry I've been too busy lately..." Nathan said with an awkward laugh.


"Yes I know you've been busy making love and hunting women like wolves..." Echelon's timpal instantly made Nathan speechless.


"So what do you want? Now there's nothing more I can give you..." Echelon asked indifferently.


Nathan let out a long sigh when he heard Echelon's tone sounding annoyed towards him. "At first I wanted to talk about the Android body for you, but you don't seem to like it. Forget it..."


As soon as Nathan said that, his hand immediately became painful and tingling due to the actions of Echelon who deliberately electrocuted him with a high voltage.


"Well, I understand... Choose which model you want. I've saved it, you can see for yourself..." Nathan Said.


Instantly Echelon stopped electrocuting Nathan and a hologram screen lit up from the watch on the man's arm revealed several Android body models.


It didn't take long Echelon directly chose the form of Android he wanted later and showed it to Nathan.


"Are you sure you chose this one? You want to tease which guy with this shape?" Nathan asked with an astonished look at Echelon's choice of Android.


Echelon instead answered instead electrocuted Nathan which made the man immediately understand that he did not want to give an answer.


"OK I'll make it after I get back..." Nathan Said.


Nathan sighed and thought about taking a temporary vacation for a month after meeting the Yamamoto family later.


What Nathan is thinking about right now is just one is spending time alone and having fun, because he realizes that after returning there will be a lot of work that he has to do.


Feeling bored Nathan then turns on the TV to find a little entertainment. But it was not entertainment that he got but news about the accident due to wild racing on TV.


The corner of Nathan's lips twitched at the sight of the news and he was completely offended by the words of the TV reporter who talked about the incident as a result of his actions last night.
