Even though we had finished visiting the Trick House, I continued enjoying the amusement park with Kuro and Alice again. We visited several attractions and had more than enough fun.
[Well~~ The amusement park sure is a fun place. I enjoyed myself a lot.]
[We did spend a lot of time here. I’m now feeling hungry and want to eat something.]
[I suppose so. I saw a food court over there, so let’s get something to eat.]
[……No, you two…… Did you forget something important?][ [ ……Ahh. ] ]
Hearing Alice’s exasperated words, I exchanged glances with Kuro and realized what Alice was talking about. Speaking of which, in the first place, we went to this amusement park to kill time.
Heck, my main focus today had been making sukiyaki, so I went around and bought ingredients for it.
[……Speaking of which, we were making sukiyaki earlier.]
[I- I completely forgot.]
It seems like it wasn’t just me, as Kuro had also forgotten about it. It certainly seems like we had been too absorbed with playing in the amusement park. Well, that Trick House was especially shocking, and the time I spent there was relatively long, so it’s no wonder I forgot.
[W- Well, let’s go back and make sukiyaki then…… However, where are we making it?][Can’t we just make it at Shalltear’s place? I’m sure she’d have a large pot there.]
[Ahh, Alice’s workshop certainly might have large pots and pans for sukiyaki, and since there’s no one else there, it might be a good place to have a leisurely meal.]
[It’s decided then!]
[……That’s strange. You two didn’t aren’t even gonna ask me? You know, the owner of that place?]
And thus, it’s decided that we’d have sukiyaki at Alice’s miscellaneous goods store, and after stowing away the amusement park, we would move there with Teleportation Magic.
[Ahh, but first, let’s ride the observation wheel.]
[It does seem like a good way to end the day. The size of the pods is also big enough for three people to ride together in.]
With Alice agreeing with Kuro’s suggestion, it was decided that we would take a ride on the Ferris wheel before parting with the amusement park. Moving to the location of the Ferris wheel, we boarded in a compartment together.
As our compartment slowly ascended, we gazed at the scenery outside. Looking at it like this again, this amusement park is quite large. It’s surprising how this place could fit all this in a handbag. I guess that’s just as to be expected of Shiro-san.
[Even so, that was fun~~ The Advanced Mode was also amusing.]
[……Advanced Mode? I thought about switching to it, but in the end, I decided not to though?]
After hearing Kuro’s words, Alice curiously looked at her. Arehh? I definitely thought Alice switched it, but this reaction…… She doesn’t seem to be joking, and was being serious about her words?
[……Ahh, I see, come to think of it, you had set it to switch modes “after you enter once”.]
[Well, I didn’t really intend on going through with it though.]
[That means, Kuro-san and Kaito-san did the Advanced Mode…… I- I was still adjusting things there…… Heck, you seriously completed such an extreme course…… Hyiiih!]
You’re the one who made that though. Well, I didn’t speak that tsukkomi out loud. Looking back, I realized that Alice had no intention of us coming to the Trick House in the first place.
And according to the conditions they spoke earlier, it was set to switch to Advanced Mode after Alice went to the Trick House with me once.
Moreover, it seems like the Advanced Mode was still in the middle of being adjusted. Well, I don’t think Alice is someone that can do that last room, so it makes sense.
[……Well, that last one certainly is a bit extreme. It was quite embarrassing.]
[Yes, I only put that in as a joke, but you seriously did that huh…… Kuro-san, you’re extreme.]
[Shalltear, after we get off, you’re getting a forehead flick (extreme).]
[……Please do that after I put away the amusement park. You’d scatter the whole place away……]
If I remember correctly, the one she used back in the Six Kings Festival, which melted the ground and carved out the sea, was forehead flick (strong), right? Is (extreme) stronger than that? Now then, will Alice be able to resurrect herself before the sukiyaki is completed…… With that thought in mind, I turned my attention back to the scenery with a wry smile.
<Afterword>
? ? ? : [Fuuu.]
Makina : [Ah, welcome back~~ Wanna eat sukiyaki?]
? ? ? : [And why the heck did you finish making sukiyaki before the main story…… Well, I’ll have some. Hmm, so-so, I guess…… Anyway, where’s Serious-senpai…… Ahh, she turned into sugar huh? Unnn? Arehh? Doesn’t it seem like…… Serious-senpai got chipped over here?]
Makina : [Used that part for the sukiyaki.]
? ? ? : [Pfuuuh!?]
