Diner Live - Chapter 3

[bakemonoremy]

Location: Entrance

Eichi: (...Hm? There’s something in my shoe locker. A letter…?)

(It wasn’t there when I went home yesterday, so did someone put it there early this morning?)

(Don’t tell me it’s a love letter. There’s no sender written on it, either.)

(Hm? On the address side the words “written challenge” are scrawled in large handwriting.)

(There’s only one person who comes to mind who would do such a classical thing in these modern times. Also, I can recognize this handwriting.)

Just what is Wataru planning to do?

Wataru: Did you just call for me? Even if no one called for me, I’ll appear nonetheless! Good morning, it’s your Hibiki Wataru ☆

Eichi: I didn’t call for you, but I did expect you to approach me about this matter. Good morning, Wataru.

Wataru: As expected! I knew Eichi would immediately figure out that it was me! Ahahaha ☆

Eichi: It’s not like you were trying to hide it. If you were really trying to hide it, no one would be able to figure out it was you, Wataru.

In any case. What is this about? I’d like to hear the real meaning behind the “Written Challenge” you put in my shoe locker.

Wataru: Fufufu, were you surprised? You were surprised, weren’t you! That’s right, I’m challenging Eichi to a fight!

You were trying to secretly do something fun without me, weren’t you, Eichi? Fufun, you can’t deceive my eyes!

Eichi: Something fun? What do you mean...? Err, nothing comes to mind.

Wataru: Yesterday you were scheming something amusing with Ou-sama-san and the Little Rabbit-san. You’re planning to revive Knight Killers and put on an event, right?

What’s with that. To exclude me from something as fun as that, you’re so cruel, Eichi. Sob, sob…

Eichi: Aah, you’re talking about Knight Killers. I didn’t mean to exclude you.

But if you were included, it wouldn’t be “Knight Killers” anymore. Though, “Knight Killers feat. Wataru” doesn’t sound bad, either.

Wataru: Amazing! That does sound good~ It sounds like it’d be a stage that’ll make your heart dance ♪ But I’ve thought of something even more interesting.

I’ll also establish a “temporary unit” and challenge Eichi’s Knight Killers to a match ☆

Eichi: A match between “temporary units”...?

Wataru: Yes~ ♪ You haven’t decided on the specifics of the event yet, right Eichi?

You’ll end up doing a live show anyway, so I thought it’d be interesting to add a bit of an exciting essence.

Eichi: So your idea is to do a showdown? Well, since we can’t tell who the victor would be, it would be quite exciting.

Wataru: Yes. No matter the time, all people of any age get excited about showdowns.

Eichi: Hmm, I understand what you are thinking. It’s true that we are lacking a trump card as of now, so I’ll go ahead and consider your proposal.

By the way, who are the members of your “temporary unit”, Wataru?

Wataru: I’m planning to find them from here on out ☆ Since I only thought of this scheme just yesterday, you see.

Eichi: Eh, are you going to be okay? I don’t think there are a lot of people who would go along with a haphazard plan like that out of nowhere.

Wataru: It’s fine! Please leave it to me! Be assured that I’ll assemble members that won’t lose to your Knight Killers ☆

Eichi: I have no doubts you’ll be able to accomplish that, Wataru. You can always pull off anything.

Wataru: There are some things even I can’t do. But concerning this, I will show you that I can fulfill your expectations ♪

Well then, I shall present my reliable members to you after school ☆

Eichi: Fufu, you seem like you’re having fun. I can’t wait to see that. Since I have something to look forward to, I’ll be able to get through my classes without boredom ♪
