Chapter 179: Curry of Tears (2)

Seiya first let John Dae and his motorcycle pass through the gate, then the sidecars. It was too wide to pass with the sidecars attached. I see. That’s why Seiya chose a motorcycle instead of a car.

It was still night in Twisted Exfolia, but I could clearly see the lights of the casino in the distance. Colt’s car was parked on the hill. Colt, Eich, and the others were waiting around it.

「Sorry to keep you waiting. 」

When I said that, someone yelled before anyone else spoke.

「Ahhhhhhhhhh!! My motorcycleeeeeeeeee!! 」

John Dae, whose body was covered in dirt, dashed onto the motorcycle that Seiya had brought. After he clung to the seat, he glared at Seiya with teary eyes.

「You thief! 」

He then started the engine and checked its operation. Seiya said the following words.

「I said I’ll “borrow” it. I was just using it as a reference for synthesis. 」

「How was this a reference for synthesis? 」

John Dae was relieved to see that his motorcycle was moving, but Seiya’s words made him suspicious, and he looked at the fuel tank again. Then, he saw stickers in there and changed his appearance.

「…!? It has strange stickers on it!! 」

There were stickers with a deformed smiling face on both sides of the fuel tank. Seiya explained without any hesitation.

「I didn’t have enough resin or rubber, so I used a small amount of goddess’ hair. As a result, those stickers appeared for some reason, but they don’t interfere with the vehicle’s performance. 」

Well, the whole thing could change to a girl’s motorcycle if he used a large amount. But it seemed to be okay by using a very small amount of hair. Still, John Dae looked annoyed.

「Even if it doesn’t interfere with driving, I don’t want these stickers! 」

John Dae tried to peel them off with his nails, but…

「I can’t take them off, these lame stickers! Damn it! 」

「Hey, that makes me angry too! Don’t call stickers with people’s faces lame! 」

It didn’t seem to work no matter how hard he tried. Therefore, John Dae gave up and sat in the spot. With a deep sigh, John Dae suddenly noticed Seiya’s motorcycle nearby.

「Wait. Did you say, “reference for synthesis”? 」

John Dae slowly approached Seiya’s motorcycle and showed a shocked expression.

「You synthesized this vehicle based on my motorcycle…! In such a short time…! 」

According to Caron, John Dae seemed to be an excellent Tarmine engineer. He forgot to get mad at the motorcycle with my stickers on it and was impressed by Seiya’s synthesis technology.

「It…It’s awesome. 」

But Seiya ignored him completely.

「I don’t have time for idle talk. I’m going to Tarmine. 」

「Well, I was waiting for you guys! 」

「Did you just say idle talk? Hey! 」

Eich and John Dae screamed at the same time, and Colt smiled bitterly. Well, it looked like we were finally leaving for Tarmine!

I hit Celseus who was stuck unconscious in a wheelchair.

「Celseus. How long have you been sleeping? Wake up. We’re leaving. 」

「Ah, what…? When did I…」

As Seiya was attaching the sidecars to his motorcycle, Caron and Father Luke suddenly walked up to us.

「While we were waiting for you, we talked and decided. We will stay in Galvano. 」

「Eh? Aren’t you going with us? 」

「I don’t want to leave this town. Besides, it doesn’t seem like we can help you if we go. 」

Father Luke and Caron explained it to me, but I was worried.

「But…But it’s dangerous to stay in Galvano…」

Caron and Father Luke, who were members of a terrorist organization, could end up being suspects of murdering Bunos in the future. I was worried, but Colt smiled instead.

「Originally, their plan was to stay in Galvano. Besides, Eich will help them, so it’s okay. 」

「That’s right. Leave it to me. 」

Eich said that as she approached Caron and Father Luke. The three of them got together and talked about something in secrecy, but…when Caron and Father Luke turned towards us…

「What!? 」

At that moment, I let out a cry of surprise! Their faces turned into completely different people! Eich smiled proudly.

「My special skill is “Mad Beauty”! I used Earth Magic to reshape their faces! 」

「It’s like plastic surgery! I didn’t know Earth Magic could be used like that! 」

Seiya, who was attaching the sidecars, suddenly looked up and snorted.

「Hmph. The transformation technique I learned once is much better. That’s because it allows me to hide my presence and aura as well. 」

「Wha…What did you say, bastard! My magic is even more amazing than that! 」

Seiya and Eich argued about plastic surgery. However, I thought Seiya probably recognized Eich’s power just like Colt. This was because Seiya, who usually dismissed his companions as “I don’t need them”, didn’t say anything when the two of them accompanied him.

Suddenly, Eich’s eyes widened at Seiya’s work.

「Do you have sidecars on both sides of your motorcycle? How many wheels does it have?! A car would’ve been better after all, no!? 」

「Shut up. I have a solution. 」

While saying that, Seiya put on a full-faced helmet. After that, he silently looked at me. I nodded and put on the helmet, then I put Celseus in the sidecar and put his helmet on. After doing something that felt like nursing care, I also got into the sidecar.

My body trembled in anticipation. Seiya started the engine of his motorcycle.

John Dae’s motorcycle was in the lead, followed by our motorcycle, and then Colt’s car.

「Ah! Hey, you! You don’t have a goddess sticker on your motorcycle! 」

Suddenly, John Dae saw that Seiya’s motorcycle didn’t have a sticker and shouted, but Seiya just ignored him and continued riding his motorcycle, staring straight ahead.

Many things happened, but we finally left for Tarmine.
