Chapter 249: Finally we meet! Familiar scene,...
Familiar scene, familiar vibration, but this time the player wakes up in his own room.
"This base... is so bustling every day. What's the reason this time?" The player rubbed his eyes, fumbled to put on his shoes, and opened the door yawning.
"So, what happened?" The player asked a random NPC on the road.
"It turned out to be Aurora." Bi Yangqi, who was in a hurry, breathed a sigh of relief, unable to hide the worry on her face, and told the truth.
"Actually, there was an explosion in the residential area just now. Johnny-II discovered that the explosion happened to be near Tsunayoshi's residence. Hayato and the others had already gone there. I was a little worried, so I decided to go over and take a look."
"So that's how it is. What are you waiting for? Let's get going quickly—" The player grabbed Bi Yangqi's sleeve and quickly ran in the direction the pink-haired woman had just gone.
"That's right... Wait a minute, Aurora, you have to turn left here!"
After finally reaching the correct room with Biyangqi's guidance, the player looked at the ruins before them and Sawada Tsunayoshi, who sat against the wall, seemingly soaked by water, and sighed, "Wow, what happened? Tsunayoshi-kun looks really messed up."
"It's Sawada-sama's Vongola box, but I don't know why it became like this..."
Bajir, who had teamed up with Yamamoto Takeshi to calm the raging box, said with some concern, "Generally speaking, the creatures inside the box are modeled after those on Earth. There shouldn't be anything like the creature we just saw."
"Didn't they say that the person in the box was our assistant? It looks like an enemy now." Sasagawa Ryohei asked in confusion.
"Could it be that this Sora's Vongola box is defective?!" Gokudera Hayato clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fire. "I'm going to go find that guy Irie Shoichi and settle the score!"
"Gokudera, Shoichi-kun will definitely cry because of your indiscriminate slander, and he might even have a stomachache again--" The player shook his head and observed a three-minute silence for poor Shoichi Irie.
"Ha, then why do you think this is the case?" Gokudera Hayato turned his head and asked.
"Well, although I don't have a box, I have a lot of experience communicating with animals. They all have their own thoughts and thinking abilities." The player returned the Sky Vongola Box that fell to the ground to Tsunayoshi Sawada.
"Are you sure you only injected the flames and didn't do anything else, Tsunayoshi-kun?"
"I..." Sawada Tsunayoshi didn't know how to answer.
"The box weapon's own thoughts and thinking ability?" Hayato Gokudera repeated.
"Yeah, just like your 'melon'." The player replied.
"That's absolutely right. It was Tsuna who was wrong just now."
"We finally meet, Lady Aurora—"
Gentle, magnetic, mature and steady voices sounded at the same time, attracting everyone's attention.
"Mr. Dino... and Mr. Marco..." Sawada Tsunayoshi murmured.
"Junior brother, long time no see." Dino, who was handsome, riding a white horse, with brilliant blond hair, and looked like a prince, smiled and waved.
"Lady Aurora, it's been a long time since we last met. After hearing about you from Chiara, I have been looking forward to our meeting all the time." The mature gentleman with blond hair and blue eyes tied his long hair neatly behind his head, smiling elegantly, and his green eyes staring at the black-haired and golden-eyed girl in front of him, unable to see anything else for a moment.
"Marco! Long time no see, I missed you too!" Seeing the familiar man with long golden hair, the player happily shook his hand.
"I am old and ugly, and have become an old man in the eyes of others, but Lady Aurora is still so bright and lively. Time really spares no one." Marco gently held the black-haired girl's hand, his still bright green eyes full of sadness.
Time flies so fast——
"Old...old man?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the long-haired man who looked the same as he did ten years ago and said doubtfully, "Mr. Marco seems to look the same as he did ten years ago?"
"Tenth generation, the flame of death is the energy of life. It is said that the appearance of people who possess this power often changes much slower than that of ordinary people." Hayato Gokudera whispered in Sawada Tsunayoshi's ear.
"So that's how it is..." Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly realized and nodded.
"You just have a few more signs of aging, but you still look very handsome! I heard about some of the things you have done. In short, you have grown into a very powerful person, Marco!" The player stood on tiptoe, patted the long-haired man on the shoulder, and then gave a thumbs up.
Damn it, why are they all so tall?!
"I accept your compliment with great joy." Marco leaned down slightly, and under someone's envious gaze, he smiled and rubbed the girl's head, and by the way, supported Dino who was about to fall off the white horse.
He had become very skilled at this kind of thing during the time he had been traveling with Dino.
"Be careful, Dino."
"Thank you, Marco. I don't know why I fell so easily today." Dino rubbed his accidentally scratched hand and frowned.
Sawada Tsunayoshi twitched his lips, feeling very familiar with this scene.
Ten years have passed, and Mr. Dino still has to show his true strength in front of his subordinates?
"You're still a loser, Dino. Ten years later, you haven't changed that?"
Reborn, who appeared out of nowhere, curled his lips, looked at Dino, and raised the brim of his black hat. The brown-haired woman behind him took two steps at a time and immediately ran to the front of his eldest brother and Lady Aurora.
"Brother, why are you so slow?" Chiara punched the long-haired man in dissatisfaction, and then asked about the situation back home, "How's the situation in Italy?"
"Laura is currently in charge of the situation in Italy. After receiving your message, I will speed up the elimination of the remaining members of the Millufiore family in our territory."
Marco rubbed his forehead, sighed, and said, "I don't know why, but the leader of the Milufiore family is particularly interested in us and keeps sending people to test us."
"Although they can't cause us much damage, they come in waves, which is very disturbing."
"It's not surprising what the crazy white-haired leader of the Milufiore family does." Thinking of the uninhabited island base that was destroyed before, Chiara frowned slightly, with a look of disgust.
"Well..., this must be due to me..."
After hearing this, the player remembered what he said when Bai Lan's three-dimensional image appeared that day, so he told the two of them about it.
"I see, but what exactly did that man mean..." Marco stroked his chin, lost in thought.
Never seen..., what exactly does this refer to?
"Anyway, you must be tired from traveling. Take a break before thinking." The player smiled and curled the corners of his lips when he heard that Tsunayoshi Sawada and others were preparing to hold a welcome party.
————————
kitchen--
"Oh, Mr. Tsuna and the others are really something. If they had guests, why didn't they tell us earlier?" Koharu was cutting cabbage, looking at Kyoko and the others around her helplessly.
"Otherwise we can prepare some more things!"
"Actually, I was also surprised that so many customers came suddenly." Kyoko said softly while processing the onions that were about to be put into the pot.
"Well, actually I just knew they were coming." In order to practice later, the players who were preparing to make some special dishes sat aside, processing all kinds of strange ingredients.
"But holding a welcome party is a very happy thing, isn't it? Kyoko-chan? Koharu?"
"Yes!" Kyoko nodded.
"Koharu thinks Chiyo-chan is absolutely right!" Koharu also smiled happily.
"Then do your best!" The player took out an apple with a human face and smiled even more.
Since time is rare, players should prepare some time-consuming meals this time.
Excuse me, Screaming Apple, with a scare level of 55, today is your chance to play a role——
The player quickly peels off the skin of these screaming apples that are about to become apple pies with the knife.
Chaos, noise, and sudden screams can't disturb the players, even the final turtle egg comeback show...
How could I not be affected by this level of disturbance? ! ! !
"My cake... who bumped into the dining table just now!" The player's eyes became stern as he watched the white apple cake on the dining table suddenly deform after just one turn, and a kitchen knife was inserted at the feet of the person closest to the stove.
Why...why am I the unlucky one again?!
Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was closest to the person, fumbled and raised his foot which was only one centimeter away from being chopped off, and he was in tears.
Dino crawled out of the egg and laughed awkwardly. He quietly picked up the shrunken Antrio on the ground and hid him behind him.
"It's just a little crooked, just straighten it out." said Hayato Gokudera, who couldn't stand seeing the tenth generation being treated like this.
"...Wait a minute, Gokudera! Uh..." Yamamoto Takeshi, who tried to stop it, felt the atmosphere getting colder and colder, silently closed his mouth, and took two steps back.
"What's wrong, Yamamoto? What do you want me to do?" asked Hayato Gokudera, who was unaware of the impending danger.
"...How dare you say that? You are a kid who only knows how to eat. Do you know that making a cake of this size is very hard work?" Several cross-shaped smiles appeared on the player's forehead, and he punched the silver-haired boy on the back.
"Do you think it's easy to make a cake that dozens of people will taste? If the cake doesn't look good, it's the same as not eating it at all!"
Poor-looking food can't improve the player's cooking skills at all!
“…” Hayato Gokudera was almost knocked to the ground by the black-haired girl’s angry punch.
"Chiyo-chan, it doesn't matter if the cake is crooked. We haven't put the fruit on top yet, so we can just make a new shape for it."
"That's right, Xiaochun, think about it... how about using chocolate bars to shape them? The Leaning Tower of Pisa would be a good shape!"
…
The clever girls began to offer highly feasible solutions.
"It's almost dinner time, so this is all we can do now." The player passed by Hayato Gokudera, snorted coldly, picked up the cake and walked towards the stove in the west kitchen.
"This is what I wanted to remind you just now, Mukudera..." Yamamoto Takeshi smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, "Teacher Aurora actually pays a lot of attention to the presentation of food, especially in formal occasions."
"And this welcome party is actually to celebrate the first meeting between Mr. Marco and Teacher Aurora ten years later." Yamamoto Takeshi blinked and gave a hint.
"Baseball idiot! Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Hayato Gokudera gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice.
"You speak too fast, I can't stop you at all." Yamamoto Takeshi spread his hands, looking helpless.
Bullshit, look at this innocent face, this guy definitely did it on purpose!
Hayato Gokudera always assumes the worst about the actions of this guy who wants to compete with him for the position of right-hand man.
"Gokudera is taking the blame for Antriou. The vibration on the table just now was caused by Antriou's transformation, which caused the cake to tilt."
"I'm so sorry, Mukudera." Dino scratched his head and looked at the somewhat embarrassed silver-haired boy and smiled embarrassedly.
Reborn looked at the messy scene before him, curled his lips, and announced, "Anyway, let's all clean up here for the welcome party later!"
