The reason Erio brought the two to the cosplay club was simple.

Because this was the place she usually came to hang out for a while with Do Yu-jin when she had nothing to do.

To put it simply, it was something along the lines of, ‘The tteokbokki next door is delicious, let’s go together, I’m bored since I have nothing else to do’!

In other words, Erio was purely showing a kindness to Yuna and Yumi, who were bored without Doyujin.

This in itself was a commendable action, but there was one problem with it.

The thing is, her way of thinking is very, very different from that of ordinary people!

That’s why Erio naturally started to think, ‘I brought them here, so they can figure out the rest, right?’

Swish-

The two people were immediately abandoned in the middle of a mess.

“Hey… …Are they okay?”

While Erio was listening to Memori’s usual advice on how to take good pictures and how to edit the pictures once they’re taken, she asked cautiously.

“What?”

Erio looked up at Memori with his transparent eyes and asked.

Those eyes are so pure that you can’t even guess what they’re talking about!

“Um, so… …I was wondering if it was okay to leave them like that.”

It may be a new thing to say, but Memories was an uncommon person.

Of course, I can easily laugh and accept the informal speech from Erio, who is two years younger than me!

Even if things like timing were miraculously right, it says a lot that Erio wanted to come and talk to me on his own.

That is, what Memories is saying now is this.

‘Those two, it might be a little awkward here, wouldn’t it be better if you or I go and help them?’

And this is how Erio took these words.

‘Is it okay to leave them like that?’

Pure understanding, accepting the words as they are without trying to understand their intended meaning!

“It’s okay.”

Erio nodded with confidence.

If the circumstances were different, Erio would not have been able to speak with such confidence.

Because Yuna was basically the type of person who looked down on anyone other than Do Yu-jin as if they were bugs and ignored them, and Yumi was the type of person who looked down on anyone other than Do Yu-jin and played with them.

But it was okay now.

I knew this would happen, so I told them in advance that this was one of the places Do Yu-jin was affiliated with.

“But this photo, if you want to erase the people around it… … ”

So Erio turned the conversation back to photography.

“Ah, that’s like this… … ”

Memories felt relieved by Erio’s reaction and answered the questions sincerely.

If it were the usual Memories, while answering Erio’s questions like this, she would have secretly approached the two people behind her and said something to them.

But today that wasn’t possible.

“Hey, Erio, what are you talking about when you say those guys are junior Eugene’s daughters… … ”

Because right now, she had a mountain of questions she wanted to ask Erio.

When two people naturally fall into their own world.

Oh my gosh-!

Some people chose to push forward in a straight line like a bulldozer rather than going around in circles like a meme.

“Hello! I heard a little while ago. Are you two by any chance the daughters of your junior Eugene?”

Tantan, who had approached the two without realizing it, asked in a voice full of anticipation.

“That’s right.”

“That’s right.”

The two of them were looking around to see what was going on here, and after thinking for a moment, they answered Tantan’s words.

If it had been normal, Yumi would have ignored Tantan’s words, but not now.

If it was a place related to Do Yu-jin, then of course the person in front of me would also be related to Do Yu-jin!

For her, who placed Do Yu-jin as the absolute standard for value judgment, Tan-tan was someone worth dealing with.

“ and… … !”

Without knowing Yuna’s thoughts, Tantan was purely happy.

Memori wondered from afar how Doyujin, who had just become an adult, had not one but two daughters who looked to be well over ten years old, and what would happen to Erio if that happened, but Tantan wasn’t particularly interested in such things.

Of course, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t surprised, and I would be fooling myself if I wasn’t interested in what was going on.

However, Tantan decided to roughly interpret it as Do Yu-jin having been on her knees for several years or that these kids have old eyes.

What was important to her was that the two people in front of her were her junior’s daughters.

“If you have any questions, feel free to ask! As Eugene’s senior, I’ll help you!”

Tantan said with his chest puffed out.

In fact, since Do Yu-jin entered the club, Tan-tan had been feeling a little gloomy.

I dreamed of a club life where I could show off my cool senior side while chatting with my juniors every day, but Do Yu-jin, who could be said to be the main character of the story, never came to the club.

Still, just in case, she stopped by the store every day to prepare cookies and juice.

And did God find her special?

Today, Yuna and Yumi came to visit us.

That is, in Tantan’s eyes, these two were not juniors, but they were like juniors, in other words, they were people who could fill the void he had been longing for.

Twinkle twinkle-!

When Tan-tan was looking at the two people with his eyes shining like that.

Glance- Glance-

The two exchanged glances and talked, each understanding the truth about Tan-tan in their own way.

‘Will your sister tell you?’

‘No, you say it.’

‘Anyway, you’re making me do all the annoying things.’

‘If you were dissatisfied, you should have signed a contract with your crappy father sooner than I did. Besides, you’re better at dealing with people than I am.’

‘That’s true, I guess.’

After coordinating their opinions like that, Yumi said.

“Hmm, then I’d like you to tell me what you usually do here.”

I’m saying this now, but on the day the two came to the circle to spar, Do Yu-jin tried to teach them how to speak politely.

But it failed.

“The older one is the one who receives polite speech from the younger one.”

“Then isn’t it rather those guys who are being rude, not us?”

Despite their outward appearances, they were basically very old.

“As much as you want!”

Thanks to that, the way the two spoke remained the same as before, but Tantan didn’t care.

No, rather, I was happy and interested.

Because I had already become accustomed to all kinds of new and interesting speech patterns while watching various creative works.

Actually, I’m talking about it now, but there was also this reason why Memori didn’t say anything while listening to Erio’s informal speech.

Tantan and Memeri, both members of a cosplay club, are basically otaku who love numerous creative works.

“Um, so today… …I was researching data.”

“Data research?”

In fact, the choice to send Yumi instead of Yuna was a wrong decision.

If Yuna, who lacks experience in conversation and usually uses a cutting tone, had opened her mouth, her sloppy father would have asked her something like, “What do you usually do here?”

If that was the case, Tantan would have honestly answered that Doyujin had only been here once, and the two would have returned to a state where their interest rapidly cooled.

But Yuna usually talked around to them by asking what they were doing there.

“Yeah, do you want to try it too?”

Thanks to that, the two of them were now completely swayed by Tantan’s words.

“Can we do it too?”

“Of course!”

Tantan lightly manipulated his device and handed it over.

“Okay, just pick one that looks fun. I picked the anime since it’s probably your first time, but you can pick the novel or manga if you want.”

The two tilted their heads at Tantan’s words and received the list.

And then I opened my eyes wide.

‘What is this?’

‘Is this some kind of magic spell?’

【The shy kid next door who occasionally blurts out Russian.】

【The strongest warrior who seeks revenge uses the power of chaos to tear his enemies apart.】

【I am the strongest in the world just by breathing thanks to the strongest spirit flowing through my house.】

Besides that, there was an endless stream of titles that would make an ordinary person dizzy just by looking at them.

If their personalities were similar, they would have immediately thrown away Tan-Tan’s device.

But the two of them carefully moved their fingers, remembering once again that Do Yu-jin was a member of this club.

And while I was continuing to flip through the screens like that.

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

The title of an anime caught the attention of two people.

A daughter who returned from another world after hundreds of years uses her skills to tease her father.

As the two of them stared at the title, the one who brought the snack spoke firmly.

“Huh? Do you like that?”

“That’s… … ”

“Uh uh… … ”

For the first time, the two people who had been answering without hesitation stopped talking.

Tantan, who saw the two people’s condition and understood it, smiled and said.

“It’s okay, we never say anything about each other’s tastes.”

Oh my gosh-!

“And everyone has the right to enjoy their own tastes, right?”

Tantan said that and felt a little happy inside.

Because I was finally able to speak with the attitude and words of a senior that I had always wanted to say at least once.

“Okay, then let’s take a look right now.”

So Tan-tan took the two into a small room with a TV and sat them down.

“Shall we start?”

At Tan-tan’s words, the two looked at each other quietly, nodded, and then each shook their hips and found a position that they thought was most comfortable.

They wouldn’t have been unable to go out if they really wanted to, but to be honest, they were also a little interested in that crazy titled anime.

And that’s the moment the anime began.

“… … ”

“… … ”

At first, the two of them opened their eyes as if to say, “Let’s take a look.” But gradually, their eyes became more serious.

Even a stranger can tell that he is watching the anime with great concentration!

And although the two didn’t know it, they slowly began to change through that process.

As I’ve said many times before, the two of them had poor communication skills, so they didn’t really know what the current world was like.

Do Yu-jin also knew about this problem, but chose to leave it alone.

Because there really wasn’t any other way.

But now.

Ppaan-

The problem that Do Yu-jin had been unable to find a solution to and had to leave alone was being solved in an instant.

Even if it is indirect, I started to learn the general social activities by observing the behavior of the person I was immersed in!

From that perspective, it would be no exaggeration to say that what the two of them are doing now is not watching animation, but rather evolving.

Gulp-! Gulp-!

Well, only they themselves know whether the direction of evolution is towards MetalGreymon or SkullGreymon.
