"Thank you! You are very helpful!”
“T-no problem, I'm glad to be able to help, but... Uhm... is that really good?”
After the break, the shooting session was not resumed for a reason. Instead, Hikari-san thanked us with a satisfied face.
… No, wait, if a pro in business says that it's good, it's safe to say that there's nothing to worry about, right? But... I want to know which photo to use? I don't know because I haven't seen it. As I was thinking that, Hikari-san suddenly gave me a large paper bag.
"Take this."
"Huh? Wh-what's that? It's…"
I saw the contents, there were a lot of clothes in it.
“I really want to give you money, but since you're an amateur, it's a bit hard in the office for that. Therefore, I will give you these clothes instead, as a thank you! Rest assured, it all fits your size. I've also carefully selected clothes that look great for you!”
“Eh!? N-no need for this! It was a good experience for me too.”.
“It's okay, just accept! Basically, there will be some sort of reward for those who work. This is common sense in society, you know. ”
“Y-yes.. Then.. Uhm... thank you very much.”.
As I thanked her, Hikari-san nodded with a smile. He's a good man. As I was thinking about Hikari-san, Miwa-san also spoke to me.
“Yuuya-san's chat. Thank you very much for your time today.”
“No, I'm the one who has to say it. It was a very rewarding experience for me, and above all… I think being able to do this with a professional who works earnestly would be a good thing for me in the future.”
I told him that while smiling, Miwa-san looked surprised for a moment, but not long after, she also smiled.
“That's great then! If there is a chance for us to meet again, please treat me well then!
“Yes, me too, I will support you, Miwa-san!”
Then, when I tried to leave this place with a peaceful atmosphere.
“Sup. I'm late."
A cool man walked towards us. Blonde hair styled with wax and stylized piercings on her ears. She is also well-dressed, and somehow the atmosphere feels like the atmosphere of Miwa-san. But at the same time, I also felt something completely different from Miwa-san, but I don't know what it is.
I'm not sure who he is, but seeing Hikari-san who was smiling a while ago, there is now a protruding vein on her forehead.
"This damned child...!"
His tone of voice really returned to being a man! Making Hikari-san divulge her male tone, who is that guy?
“Umm.. Miwa. Who's that guy?” I asked Miwa-san.
“Err... she is a male model who was supposed to do a photo shoot with me today.”
I'm sure with only Miwa-san's explanation. I think there is an atmosphere that is somehow close to Miwa-san, is it because they have the same profession? I was convinced by that, and then the man noticed the presence of Miwa-san and approached her with a grin.
“Miwa-chaan! You have a photo shoot with me today, right? How's it? That makes you happy, doesn't it?”
“U-uhm..”
"Alright, let's finish this session quickly, then we'll go eat some delicious food together."
When the man put his hand on Miwa-san's shoulder, he was confused and I felt he didn't know what to do from his expression.
This is .. .
"Hey, hey, don't worry."
“Excuse me..” I tried cutting.
"Huh?"
When I called, the man looked at me in annoyance.
"You who? Don't talk to me. You're a bitch, get out of here!”
After that, even though I just called her, I was somehow harassed. Wh why? I was stunned for a moment, but I firmly told the man again;
“No, that.. Miwa-san seems to be troubled, so I think it's better that you stay away a little from her.”
“Yu-Yuuya-san!”
“... Huh?”
Miwa-san called out my name in a slight panic, and the man looked at me sharply. He removed his hand from Miwa-san's shoulder and approached me.
"Who are you talking to?"
“Eh?”
To whom... Well, I don't actually know this man, but... Is he a celebrity? The man glared at me harder, as if he didn't like my behavior.
“Actually, I don't understand even if I say it with my own mouth..”.
“Haah..”.
The man suddenly attacked me, to think that it had become a rather dangerous atmosphere.
“That attitude pisses me off..!”
“Yu-Yuuya-san!”
I was surprised that I was suddenly attacked, but very slowly, incomparable to the attacks of the Elite Goblin or Goblin General. I also did not have a hobby of being happy and silent when attacked, so my body reacted on its own without me noticing.
I caught the fist of the man flying towards my face with the palm of my right hand, twisted his arm, carried it to my back, and threw it down.
“Gah!?”
“A-stunning..”
I was attacked by him without my knowledge, my body reacted reflexively and held him back, but? It's not my fault, is it? He's a handsome man, a handsome man is usually innocent and I'll be found guilty if he complains.well, I'll just run into a different world at that time!
When I thought of the silly things on my mind, the man who had been held on the ground shouted at me.
“Gaah, I trained boxing!? How can you do it easily..!”
Err, I don't know either.
First of all, I don't know if this guy has practiced boxing or not just by looking at his punch. Or rather, everyone's blows looked the same to me, as they were all slow compared to the Goblin Generals…
Well, at the level of a Goblin General, just a single blow from his brute strength already possessed incredible strength, it was not a state that ordinary people could achieve even if they were to learn martial arts. I was able to fight with monsters that had such a huge physical difference thanks to my increased skills and stats.
Come to think of it, Miwa-san panicked earlier probably because she knew that this guy had learned boxing, I guess? However, to think that he emphasized that, I wonder if this man just accomplished something forcefully. Actually, I won't be able to do anything before I level up. Yep, when I am weak, I won't be sure if I can see the man punch. Or rather, any attack would finish me off.
It makes me feel a little sad.
“Because you showed violence, your comfort life will be over. Even if you're not an entertainer, it's usually a crime, you know. Too bad!"
"What-what?! N-there's no proof! Actually, I was the one who was beaten!?”
No, you know, I think people around here are watching, but .... as I thought, they would choose to be allies of handsome men, right? Should I be ready to cry now?
But I don't have to cry. Hikari-san smiled like a demon while showing off the camera she brought to the man.
“I recorded everything from start to finish, know .”
“S-fuckingnnnn!”
The man fought hard on the spot but ended up giving up because my body did not shudder at all while holding him back, and he ended up being taken by the staff.
“Gosh... I didn't expect it to end like this at first! But.. Yuuya-kun is very strong, isn't he? Even though the man looks like that, he is actually quite good at boxing.”
“It just happened by chance! Ahahaha..”.
I can't say anything. After all, I cannot say that I am training in a different world. Anyway, I called Miwa-san.
"Miwa-san, are you okay?"
“Eh? Ah... uh..... Thank you very much!”
Miwa-san was a little surprised as I called out to her, and she lowered her head, her cheeks reddish.
“Only like that.. don't think! I'm just a little confused because you didn't say a word before. ”
“Err... I'm relieved, because that person always follows me everywhere, so it helps a lot!”
Uh, what is that? Frighteningly. Did he even act like a stalker as well?
“It was a bit strange, but again. I hope we can meet again somewhere.”
"Yes, let's meet again somewhere!"
“Yuuya-kun, thank you for today!”
When I left that place, I remembered what happened today. I was suddenly asked to be a model, I wondered what to do, but it turned out to be a good experience, I was really happy.
As for the clothes. I get clothes that are selected directly by people who are professionals in their fields, so the results are very good. By the way.I don't know what's going to happen to that guy but, the entertainment world is actually quite scary, huh. I can't not think so.
* * *
"I want to know who he is ..."
After Yuuya left, Hikari sighed in admiration.
“Handsome boy with an amazing style.I've been in entertainment for a long time, but I've never seen anyone like him before. What's more, he's just an amateur.”.
“He's really amazing, isn't he? I'm fascinated by it even though I'm a man.”
“Oh, you are right! I mean.. she seems to have a charm that can attract everyone.”
“Yeah, but since it's her first time doing a photo shoot, she still looks awkward.”
“But, he also brings a nice atmosphere, doesn't he? So that's awesome!”
The staff involved in the shoot spoke of Yuuya, they seemed to be captivated by Hikari's words. Hikari smiled bitterly looking at them, but then seeing Miwa who was preparing to go home, she approached him.
“Hei, Miwa-chan's. Do you want to check out those photos now?”
"Ah, please, is it okay?"
"of course! Here, you can look around as much as you want. ”
All the previous photo data has been transferred to the laptop, so, Miwa checks the photos from the laptop, not from the camera.
“... When I saw her again, Yuuya-san was really amazing. It was inevitable that his expression was still stiff because he was not a professional, but I felt I could not take my eyes off of him, to the point that such a thing did not matter anymore.”.
"really? This time we were filming for a fashion magazine, so the main focus was about her clothes, but. Of course, I was inspired when I saw her eyes, you know.”.
Yes, initially for fashion magazine photo shoots, the main focus should be more on the clothes than the models themselves. However, in order to increase the value of the clothes, they would use famous models like Miwa, and she also did her job perfectly.
But in Yuuya's case, she was more prominent, like swallowing her own clothes, when it should have been the main focus.
“In addition, look at this, I was thinking of taking back the photo because Yuuya was too prominent, I think it's like the charm of the outfit itself has been resurrected completely to make Yuuya shine.”
Yes, she did not take it back even though Yuuya was like the main focus, the clothes themselves became more attractive than before, and as a result, they fulfilled her goal.
Miwa smiled bitterly hearing Hikari's matter. And then, his eyes stopped on one photo.
“Eh? This photo…"
“Oh, do you realize it, Miwa-chan?”
Reflected in Miwa's eyes is a photo of her and Yuuya chatting while on break. The photos look as ordinary as in everyday scenes, but they look very natural and make them look like real couples, and this was originally the concept of Hikari photography.
Miwa in the photo also has a natural and attractive smile, and Yuuya is so full of charm that it makes people seem drawn into the photo without even realizing it.
“I was thinking of making that photo a major part this time. It's really nice, isn't it?”
“Y-ya... Yuuya-san in this photo is very... um... charming..”.
Miwa herself had been fascinated by Yuuya's extraordinary appearance since she first met him, but when she saw the photo of Yuuya in front of her, she felt her cheeks heat up naturally.
"God? Oh my, my goodness? Miwa-chan, your face is red, you know?”
“Eee!? I-it's not true!?”
Hikari who was aware of the change in expression Miwa looked at him with a smile.
"Well, I'll stop there for today."
“U-uh... does my face really red?”
“It's like an apple. But now, Miwa-chan is also very interesting, you know.”
"Th-so?"
Miwa tilted her head looking at Hikari who suddenly showed a gentle look.
“Fufu... Miwa-chan in the photo is also full of charm, unlike Miwa-chan usually. From now on, I think you will have a lot of shots, but don't forget your expression and feelings today, OK?”
"Ah yes!"
The shoot, which was a valuable experience for Yuuya, also provided a valuable experience for everyone who had been involved in it.
