Chapter 312
Thirsty, after hearing the wishes of the three, I went to the store with my companion to buy a drink. First, place them at the seam where you are playing, then hand them to Meleoron and Uranus.
"Yes."
Meleoron took the vegetable juice and drank it with relish. Sakura watched her with envy.
"Thanks, Aisha, aren't you using the Massage Chair?"
Uranus took the lemon tea and asked with a tremble. I'm done for.
"Hmm...
This is not bad, but this isn't a situation that requires a massage."
"Because.
The aforementioned Table Tennis, it doesn't even count as exercise. 'Pop-pop'."
"Oume.
... Hmm, it looks like you definitely didn't sweat."
It's not like I didn't sweat. It really was exercise after a bath. However, the truth is it wasn't that Heavy.... Mentally, it was very tough.
So let's get some treatment.
"Sakura, can I keep you?"
"Hmm, that's fine.
But won't this kid disappear soon?"
"Maybe... Uranus."
"Iyadakarane.
I am judenkijanaikarane."
Why is it rattling?... Hmm, never mind. You look tired.
I held Sakura in my arms, listened to her soothing "nyan," and returned to the Seam who was playing.
The area where Seam is located is a game corner, with Game Consoles lined up.
Only Seam is playing. Even in this Inn, there isn't a single game character as a guest. ──When I traveled everywhere, there were such game corners too, but there was always someone there, and it was a bit hard to approach. When I looked at it from afar, I saw strange eyes.
If you look closely, you will find an old-fashioned pinball machine, a whack-a-mole, and a puncher with shredded paper stuck to it. After that, it's a driving game.
Seam is playing a game on a combination of an old-fashioned table and a Game Console. Honestly, once you get used to Joystation games, you will find it hard to get into.
"Nyan."
"Ah, did you bring Sakura?"
"Yes. Don't mind it, just play."
Seam continued to look at the game screen without looking at me, just like when I handed him a drink earlier. Maybe it's because I brought Sakura with me, but I was clearly restless. The drink is original.
As far as the screen goes, Seam is playing a game similar to a Shoot game. The screen is almost pitch black, the red, blue, and green primary colors are all little bugs, and this strangely designed Airship just shoots salty Bullets; does it count as shooting? That's how it feels. Is this interesting...?
"... Look, is this interesting?"
"Meow?"
"Hmm?
Looking at it, it's not that interesting."
Is that so? I don't know.
"Seam.
Hey, what game are you playing?"
Uranus shouted at me from the Massage Chair.
"Hmm. A game called Jaraga."
"Oh.
Did you hit the tractor beam?"
"Hmm? What is that?"
"It appears in front of you and shoots out a beam that spreads out."
"Isn't it bad to hit people?"
"If you still have lives, try to hit them immediately.
If your remaining lives are zero, that's not good."
"I understand."
After such an exchange, Seam refocused on the game.
Just as I was watching, the enemy stopped as expected and shot out a beam of light that spread out.
Seam deliberately rushed over, the Airship that had been under him was jerked up in a circle and caught by the enemy.
"I was caught!? What should I do!?"
"The enemy will fly away when it holds it, so defeat it.
Don't shoot when it's not moving. Don't hit your captured ally."
"Uniya?"
"I don't quite understand, but does this mean only the enemies that fly over can be shot down?"
"Yes..."
Uranus, you are sitting on the Massage Chair talking to me, so you don't understand this point. You don't seem to want to come here.
Seam carefully fired two Bullets at an enemy flying in with an Airship and killed it.
Immediately after, the captured Airship turned around and fell.
Clang. And the two Airships became one. Oh, so that's it! I understand.
"Eh!? It's stuck!"
"I can fight just as I am."
When Seam presses the button, it can now fire two Bullets at the same time, instead of firing one at a time. Hmm, this is simple, but difficult... Hmm?
"Seam.
Could it be that it's hard to avoid?"
"Eh!?"
"Wind rumors."
Correct. Because the two airships are connected side-by-side, it is easier to be hit.
Seam dodges desperately. However, as expected, one plane explodes without dodging the Bullets that it had been dodging until now. It will return to its original state. Ah...
"Uranus!!"
It seems the angry roar meets Uranus's laughter. Hello!
Seam loses his pace, loses his remaining life, leading to a Game Over.
"Hmm!"
"Meow."
Seam snatches Sakura from my hand and walks slowly toward Uranus.
"It's terrible!"
"Meow!"
As I approach, Uranus is still laughing.
"No, it's just that kind of game, you know.
As soon as I start playing the game, I switch to Dualship to play, right?
If you fire one Bullet at a time, it takes a long time to defeat the enemy."
"Alright, that's enough!
I mean, tell me properly!"
"I'm truly sorry.
But if it's like this, you know how easy it is to do the bonus stage in the middle, right?
Did you get a perfect score on the one you usually do?"
"Hmm...
That was a strange move, I didn't hit it at all."
"Right? That's why I recommend Dualship.
If you just want to play, I suggest using a single unit."
"Ugh."
Overworked Seam. You're just playing with your mouth.... I've also been beaten quite a bit at Table Tennis.
"I understand, but if you're going to teach me, you should teach me properly."
"Hmm. Because I'm in the middle of a massage."
"So I'm going to give you a massage."
"... I refuse for now."
Hey. Now, with Seam's seal of approval, I can knead it into a ball.
"Meow!"
"Whoa!?"
Sakura jumps out of Seam's hands. I jump toward Uranus on the Massage Chair!
"Whoa!? Hey, stop it Sakura!"
"Meow meow meow meow!"
Sakura is thumping away on Uranus's stomach.... You aren't going to give me a massage, are you?
"Hehe!?"
"Meow meow meow meow!"
"I want it, I want it!
Supporting Sakura's back with my hands, Uranus disappears. Yes, yes.
Just then, Uranus's expression changes. Covering his face with both hands.
"Ptooey ptooey, this guy...!!"
We stare at Uranus, who is stretching his legs and twisting, wondering what happened. No, I can make a Prediction.
"Oh. Is this the one from the example?"
"I agree."
The brothers and sisters seem to have noticed too, and after seeing Uranus, they look at me. No...
"Uranus, are you alright?"
"No, no, yes. Don't worry...
Sigh... and because of this, it doesn't matter, and..."
It looks like it won't be okay.... This time might be very exciting.
"If you look tired, do you want a massage?"
"Hey! Stop it, stop it!!"
The screaming returns. This is serious.
Meleoron looked with a pitiful gaze at Uranus, who was covering his face and breathing heavily.
"……Let's play over there for a while, until we calm down."
"Mm-hmm. Please……"
Meleoron stood up from the Massage Chair and urged me to stitch. ……I was worried about Uranus, who was twitching a little, but I had no choice but to keep my distance.
Around the Game Console, Meleoron sighed softly.
"Aisha.
You will be unreasonable toward that girl, so be moderate, okay?"
"Hm? ……Because"
"Well, if I just loved him like an idiot and that memory was thrown into my mind, that would be too strange."
"How am I?"
"……Hmm, you don't have much Poison, so it's fine, right?"
"Are you saying my love for Sakura is Poison?"
"A little, but if it's too much, it might be toxic.
That is the ins and outs of it."
Hmm……if Uranus really hated it, I would consider it, but Sakura would rather be happy. If our consciousnesses are connected, can't we spend a little more time?
"……Even if I just take a look, there are only the same old games lined up.
Is it fun?"
Meleoron asked while eyeing the Game Console. I groaned,
"I'm old, I don't know much about this……"
"I've never done much, it's interesting."
Shim said so, but I wasn't excited. I don't know. It would be fine if there were at least fighting games, but there aren't.
"I'm watching Seam's game, just like before."
"I don't really understand either, so I'll do it."
"Yeah. I want to watch people play too."
Seam checked the game when defeated. I wandered around with a Goo of juice I had missed.
"Then how about this?
It feels just like before."
"Hmm. I wonder if Space*nvader is still okay……
Gya*ga is more interesting."
"You, what is this? ○kaimura.
I mean, haven't you done it before?"
"……Yes, I did.
I don't like that game because I die within 30 seconds. Even if you continue, you'll definitely be beaten to death by a Red Coat."
"……Actually Seam, have you done quite a bit?"
"I don't know about others.
Maybe you've seen or watched people do it like this."
"Ah..."
As I looked at the person groaning, Uranus was walking over this way, scratching his head with a complicated expression.
"Are you okay now?"
"……This won't do, let's get distracted.
Do you have anything to play?"
"There are too many games I don't know, it's hard to choose."
"Yeah?
……It seems there are quite a few famous places."
Uranus took another look at the Game Console,
"No, there are some minor ones, but I think I know them all……
But if I do this, it takes a long time, so I'll avoid doing it."
"Then do you have any recommendations?
Tell me properly this time."
Uranus waved his yukata while thinking about Seam's question.
"Hmm...
The content of Yokai Chronicle is too crazy……
○vius doesn't remember where the Hidden characters are……
Unless you master the double jump and helmet slash, beating the Dragon is impossible……
○I also don't know how to attack Yigdug……at least if it's ii.
Four*tionz is a very small and mysterious game...
The operation of the Tower of Druaga has too many peculiarities, and if it lasts too long, you'll die……"
"And then? It's almost useless."
When Meleoron pointed out skeptically, Uranus waved his hand,
"It's a process of elimination."
If Seam...
"That person opposite. Let's do City Connection."
By the way, Uranus ignored a Game Console. It was an adult game that you could understand at a glance, so I guess they even avoided talking about it.
"Atashi, I want to try this, you tell me.
I don't understand the rules at all."
Meleoron pointed at the game. Uranus completely ignored it. Well, I thought I would do that.
It seemed to start playing City Connection and the like, while coldly watching the older sister driving normally.
"It's already started, how do you play!?"
"Well, basically you use jumps and oil to deal with enemies.
Now, try jumping to avoid enemies or climbing up steps."
"How do I clear it?"
"Isn't the ground your car runs over being painted?
Clear it after painting all the ground."
"You also dodge this little guy?"
"It's oil.
Hmm. A game about escaping from police cars? This is strange game content."
"Oh, something happened."
"I'm spraying oil.
If it hits a police car, it will spin, so in that state you can hit it and blow it away."
"Oh, is that so!"
... The law. Sprinkling oil, hitting police cars with the body. Violence.
Meleoron, who was watching from the side, also showed a slight look of disgust on his face.
Seam was not familiar with this car, he was jumping forward, and a cat appeared at the bottom of the road. What is this?
"Hey. What is this cat?"
"... Hit it."
"Uh. No, it's like this."
"When you win, what happens is interesting."
Uranus, you are laughing. I have a bad premonition about this.
After all, I had a bad premonition, Seam tried hard to dodge the cat. However, after going down to the lower level, I could no longer go back, and while practicing jumping, I hit a cat.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Accompanied by a unique sound, the cat flew out diagonally. And it was treated as a mistake.
Immediately after, it goes without saying that Seam was angry at Uranus, who burst into laughter.
