Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret - Raise Magical Girls and Leave Them With Eternal Regret chapter 34

34. Seeking Opportunities

Time flew by, and before they knew it, it was time for a break again.

“Boom!”

“Thud!”

“……Alright, let’s call it a day.”

“Okay.”

“Mm.”

During this period, nothing particularly special had happened; they continued with their daily training.

However, as their training time together increased, their relationship with Bai Yu gradually shifted from initial rejection to being able to communicate normally.

At least Bai Yu wouldn’t be so impatiently bored that she would run away.

Walking over, Youyu handed each of them a bottle of water as usual and said:

“You’ve really worked hard lately, having to carve out time to fight after school every day.”

“Well… it’s nothing! After all, this way I can improve my combat skills, and it’s also a way to fulfill my wishes!”

After taking the water from Youyu, Wuyue smiled and said.

“……A way to fulfill your wishes, huh?”

…Suddenly, she felt that, in some ways, her current approach was a bit problematic, as it might increase the likelihood of becoming a “yandere.”

However, Yuyou believed that, at least for now, the impact wouldn’t come so quickly.

Moreover, when the time came for her to fulfill her “wish,” this training wouldn’t matter much.

Thinking of this, Yuyou didn’t worry too much about the thoughts here, but turned to Baiyu beside her and said:

“We’ll be going to that food place for dinner later… You should come along too, it’s on me, so don’t worry about it.”

“…Me? I don’t think it’s necessary.”

Upon hearing Yuyou’s words, Baiyu hesitated at first, but in the end, she frowned and declined his invitation.

“…Is that so.”

After pondering for a moment, Yuyou continued:

“Hmm, Wuyue, what do you think?”

Hearing her name mentioned by Yuyou, Wuyue, still immersed in joy, suddenly remembered what they were supposed to do, and deliberately put on a disappointed expression, saying:

“Alas—Baiyu, don’t you really want to come? Recently… our interactions have only been during training in battles, and at school… it’s even hard to catch a glimpse of you.”

“Today, we finally have some time… since it’s a holiday, why not take a little time to have dinner with us… We want to have a good chat with you, okay?”

“…”

Seeing Wuyue “pleading” with her, even Baiyu, no matter how thick-skinned she was, couldn’t hold out any longer, and could only sigh, saying:

“Fine, fine, let’s go then, it’s just once… it’s no big deal.”

After all… this matter really posed no harm to her. Her previous reluctance was merely due to some strange emotions in her heart.

Now that she was gradually accepting it, going once… shouldn’t be a big problem.

Moreover, it would help her fulfill her “wish.”

Baiyu affirmed this in her heart.

After seeing Baiyu finally agree, Yuyou let out a sigh of relief and said:

“Then let’s head over right now.”

“If we go late, there might not be any seats left.”

Now he was eager to get there.

Because, after a few days of interaction, they had finally improved their relationship with Baiyu.

So… he wanted to seize this opportunity to see if he could take a step further.

With that, the three of them, each harboring their own thoughts, made their way to the food place…

————

Once again arriving at that classic food place, Yuyou led them to the spot he used to frequent with Wuyue, then sat down directly.

How should he put it… he had a premonition that, in the future, no matter what happened, they might discuss it here, just like in the animations, where the main characters usually had a conversation spot, right?

Thinking this with a sense of amusement, he saw the two of them sit down as well, and Yuyou cleared his throat a few times, then addressed Baiyu:

“You can order whatever you want, it doesn’t matter. Just go ahead and choose; after all, I’m treating, so it’s all good.”

“…Okay.”

Nodding slightly, Bai Yu indicated that she understood what You Yu had said.

She then began to flip through the menu booklet, starting her search.

However, her movements were still a bit awkward, just like when he had first brought Wu Yue here to eat.

It was quite poignant.

“By the way! Bai Yu.”

“Mm?”

After Bai Yu had finished ordering, looking at the array of vegetarian dishes, Wu Yue curiously asked:

“Are you… a vegetarian?”

“…Not really. It’s just that I’ve been eating vegetarian food lately, so this time out… I just ordered these.”

“Ah… is that so?”

“…”

For some reason, Bai Yu felt that Wu Yue’s gaze suddenly turned a bit sympathetic.

It was probably just her imagination.

“Well, it’s not a big deal. After all, everyone has their own tastes, and that’s normal.”

You Yu didn’t think much of it and didn’t say much more.

He then changed the subject, saying:

“Speaking of which, Bai Yu, what have you been up to lately? When I was trying to contact you on your phone before, you always seemed busy and didn’t reply.”

“…That’s because I’ve been working. Besides studying, I still need to earn money. Otherwise… relying on the family savings, while it can last for a while, it won’t hold out for too long.”

“Mm, so your current situation is quite similar to what Wu Yue was in before, right?”

“I guess you could say that.”

Nodding, Bai Yu agreed.

Although she was still somewhat reluctant to discuss this topic, she thought about it and decided it didn’t matter too much, so she spoke up.

After all, during the time she had spent with them recently, they had gotten to know each other a bit, so… perhaps sharing these things could ease some of the discomfort she felt inside.

So she could hold on until her wishes came true.

“I see… that does sound tough. If you ever need our help, just let us know. We’ll be there for you.”

After hearing her words, You Yu replied, and then he didn’t continue on that topic. Instead, he started talking about other things—life, entertainment.

For now, he still couldn’t delve into that subject.

Better to wait a little longer.

When the time comes, I’ll see if I can find an opportunity to talk to Bai Yu about her family.
