Chapter 29 - [29] Chasing the Flames of the Future, Pt #1

-Otto POV-

"So we're good?" I asked as I looked down at my chest. I was currently lying on the floor with Elysia lying right on top of me, hiding her red face on my chest. 

Seems like I took my teasing too far, but she started it. 

I was American in my first life, so as they say, 'America doesn't start wars, we finish them.'

...Well, most of them we didn't start.

She meekly looked up at me with a few glistening tears threatening to come out of her eyes.

"Umu..." she nodded.

"Good," we both separated from each other as a heavy silence formed between us.

Even Elysia's cheerful personality couldn't save us from the awkward atmosphere.

"Soooo I have to go-" before I could finish my sentence, my phone started ringing. I answered, "Otto, it's me, Welt, I need your help!" Shouted Welt from the other side of the phone, I could hear multiple other voices and steps that were becoming closer by the second.

"Hoh, look, it's the traitor~" I grinned. Oh, how the tables have turned~

"Otto, this isn't the time for joking! I almost made it to the place where we were going to meet up for lunch, but I got intercepted by those psycho girls. I can't get them off my tail, so help-" before he could ask me for help, I hung up on him.

Let him see how it feels to be chased by a stampede of frightfully organized girls.

"Pff~ isn't he supposed to be your friend~?" Asked Elysia, who gave me a sweet chuckle.

"Well, he had it coming when he left me for dead." It seems like I can't go to the roof; these girls might still be there since they know Welt wanted to go to the roof. 

Damit!

"Hmm~ since your friend is busy for now, want to come and have lunch with my friend and me?" She suddenly offered. I was quite surprised that she would ask me to go with her. I basically just had my way with her body a few seconds ago. She should be calling the police instead. 

But it's not like I have anything else to do, so why not?

"Yeah, sure," I shrugged nonchalantly.

"Hehe, good, let's go to my friend's secret lunch spot~" she said as she once again dragged me by the hand.

Wait, now that I think about it, she mentioned she has some friends?

...they couldn't be right?

"Hey Elysia...what's the name of your friends?"

"Hmm~ well, there's Su, Kevin, Mobius, Fu-Hua, Kalpas, Kosma, Grisseo, Aponia, Mei, Pardofelis, Sakura, Eden, and Villera, but she prefers we call her Vill-V. Oh, and there also the one and only Elysia~!"

Ohhhhhhh shit! I'm about to meet the Flame Chasers!
