TEORA – Chapter 42 – Advancing into America: Slipknot/Sonic Youth It makes me really excited Their rendezvous was in front of the station. This was because Neito didn’t have a car. Neito arrived earlier than expected. He had fifteen minutes to spare. It wasn’t like it was enough to wander around, so Neito sat at a bench near the station’s water fountain. It was very sunny despite the season. The sun rays felt warm. If I were a smoker, I would be smoking at a time like this… Tsurugi does look cool whenever he smokes… Thoughts like that entered Neito’s mind.
Now he had a date. It may be a whimsical one, but the fact they happened to converse with each other during lunch made this possible. He maybe was s.p.a.cing out at that moment… [Hey hey, Nate does really likes curry huh?] [Yeah.] [Shouchu is just sweet potato right?] [……yeah] [… Hmm… Let’s have a date when you’re free okay?] [… Yeah… Eh?] [Yaay! That’s a promise! Amus.e.m.e.nt park ♪ amus.e.m.e.nt park ♪] Looking at her happily jumping around, he couldn’t turn her down despite thinking of a way to take back what he said. He was in a bad situation, but he had frivolous feelings towards her. He also had something to tell her, so maybe it was a good opportunity. Neito looked at his watch. He had ten minutes to go. Maybe I came in too early… [Wa–!] [Ooo–! A huge voice sounded off behind him. He screamed in surprise and looked back. Behind him was a blonde girl. Today’s date? He was with Anice. Their reaction towards each other was funny so they laughed it off. [Hey there Nate, you sure are early!] [Don’t scare me like that. My heart almost stopped thinking you were an a.s.sa.s.sin.] Really, he was in a position where an a.s.sa.s.sin could aim for his life. Well, as long as Head-Field values his life, he should have taken precautions in keeping me alive. [You surprised me as well. Nate is really interesting.] Anice circled around the bench and came in front of him. She was wearing a knitted white mini-skirt. For some reason, she looked more feminine than usual. [……] [Hm? What’s the matter? Hmmm. Don’t I look cute?] He thought of saying something about her atmosphere but he resisted. [Oh, yeah. You look really cute.] [Eh? Really? You really think so? Yay!] [Well then… shall we?] [Why are you embarra.s.sed? Is it because you’re a Samurai?] Maybe it was because she was Anice, that her pace was faster than Neito’s. Neito tried to force a smile, but stopped at that thought. Neito commenced his [Date] with Anice. While walking, Neito noticed that people were naturally attracted to Anice. Of course, it was no surprise. It was the first time they walked together alone in a normal place. Her appearance was that of a blonde doll, but her expression looked otherwise. Neito felt somehow embarra.s.sed while walking with her. She was walking with rhythm while humming an English song. Neito was walking two steps behind her. He noticed Anice looking at him and brightened up his face. [Hey Nate, wanna hold hands?] That won’t happen. [No, umm… that would be too… umm… I’ll hold back… We j.a.panese have a certain rule when it comes to that…] His palms were too sweaty and it was embarra.s.sing. In any case, that was not going to happen. It took him five minutes to explain why they couldn’t hold hands. After they rode the train, they arrived at a theme park named after some well-known characters. Neito never visited the place, but according to Niina, the location should pose no problem even though he was in-experienced. [Let get on that first!] Her eyes were s.h.i.+ning when she insisted on a ride. To tell you the truth, Neito had never been on those type of rides. Even more, he never grasped the concept of going to an amus.e.m.e.nt park due to “family matters”. [Owaaaa! Let me off–!] It’s scary. It’s definitely a paradox. Why would people build rides that would be this scary? (TLN: The ride is a rollercoaster.) Neito thought to himself and looked sideways. [Ahahaha ! Kyaa!] Anice was enjoying herself, screaming at a musically fine tune. They finished the ride and exited. Neito was feeling sick. [Ah~ that sure was fun wasn’t it?!] Anice was really satisfied. She was grinning. Her smile truly expressed that she liked it, and somehow, this made Neito feel good too. It didn’t change the fact that the ride was scary. […it was scary…] [Really? Even though you jumped from the roof of the research lab, you didn’t like it? Why?] Anice tilted her head and looked at him. This and that are different. The reason I did that in the research lab was because it needed to be done. It’s not like I like high places. [Hm… Is that so… I’m sorry Nate, you even had to accompanied me…] In a moment,she became depressed.She was honest to herself when it came to things like these. [… No, it was really fun. It was my first time riding one, but let let’s keep going.] Neito enjoyed looking at Anice who was having fun. Since it was a good opportunity, he wanted to keep going. [Really? Don’t force yourself too much ‘kay?] [Yeah, I won’t…] [Yay! The next ride is…] They spent the next few hours on the thrill rides. Neito was sure that it was a form of spiritual training. If he used his “Evil Silhouette” next time, he was sure it would be much stronger. (TLN: forgot to mention this, but by default (according to philosophy) “spiritual” is the same as “willpower”. I’m translating literally, so please be informed of the actual meaning) [Ah, it’s about time we went to the theater.] It was already late in the afternoon. They watched a pirate themed wacky film and had dinner afterwards. Anice ordered something like a fairy tale dinner. Neito tried refusing when offered a bite, but it really tasted good once he took a bite. He noticed Anice looking at a stall selling weird accessories, so he bought one for her. She was startled, at the same time pleased. She laughed satisfied. [Time sure does fly by fast.] Anice looked disappointed that the day would end. She was enjoying herself the whole day. Despite having a small body, she was energetically moving around all day. It was the first time Neito got to experience a day such as this. [……] Neito was silent, lost in his thoughts. Anice, who was walking beside him, looked worried. [Are you okay Nate? Are you tired….?] [Not at all… I may look frail, but I started out in the General Affairs Department. Plus I also have my training, so you don’t have to worry about me.] [Is that so… So did you not have fun?] Ahh, that’s why. No wonder I’m not popular. Neito reflected and answered; [No, it was really fun. I’m all better now. Thanks.] Anice was most likely being considerate towards me. She tried cheering me up using the date as an excuse. A lot of things happened lately, and I may have changed in various ways. I don’t regret my decisions, and I plan to move on forward. Though I sometimes feel tired. [Really? Thank G.o.d. I also had fun! Let’s come again ‘kay?!] Anice was smiling all day. While riding on the amus.e.m.e.nt park’s rides, she was dazzling in every way. You wouldn’t think that she was from an evil organization. [Yeah, if we can.] Neito felt embarra.s.sed. They exited the amus.e.m.e.nt park and Neito offered to escort her home. In accordance to Niina-sensei’s plan. Oh yeah, I needed to tell her something. Neito called out to her while they were walking towards Anice’s house. [Hey, I think I will be sent to New York as part of our inter-company employee exchange with Crimson.] [Eh? Really? As expected of Neito! If you said so earlier, we could’ve gone celebrating~] That was the easy part, the following might be hard to swallow for her. [And then…] [Ah! That means Neito will be working with Papa! Wa~ That’s amazing! I never thought that it would come to that!] Exactly. That would eventually happen. Crimson is also an evil organization. He would be fighting with American heroes, whether they are stronger than j.a.panese ones or not. […Yeah. When I first met you at the sales department, I already antic.i.p.ated that I would be working with your dad someday, but I didn’t antic.i.p.ate it to come so soon…] That’s right. Neito barely finished his first year inside Metallica. He never aspired to himself that he would aim for Crimson’s top position. Back then, it would look like a cruel joke. Since then, Neito actualized that joke. Even if it was a farfetched dream, Neito decided to thread that path. I only thought of it on a whim, but it’s true that I considered that possibility. Now, I’m in a position to actually aim for it to happen. [You know, I really love my Papa.] She happily expressed it as she looked up towards the sky. That was most likely the case. Looking at Anice, you would see that she was rasied with love and care. They may be villains, but to her, her father is the strongest and kindest figure in her life. She may even have a father-complex. [But when I’m looking at you, I suddenly feel very excited.] Anice stopped walking and stared Neito in the eye. Neito got nervous staring into her deep blue eyes. [At first, when I heard about Dylan, I only took little interest in you. But when I first saw you, I knew you had something in you that others don’t possess. I know, because I’ve seen a lot of bad guys since I was young.] [Is that… so…?] Neito wasn’t being humble. He really had low fighting capabilities, and he really wasn’t that witty. As to how his “Evil” nature came, he remembered Manaka-san who guided him in the right path. [Yup, I’ve never seen a guy that’s so upstanding… You’re always kind, although you are sometimes clumsy and easily frightened… Fufufu] Neito recalled how he acted while riding the roller coaster. Anice happily laughed at him. [That Nate I met is moving forward. It makes me really excited. My heart always pounds hard when I’m with you…] […Well…] Neito stopped in the midst of his sentence. He knew Anice was affectionate towards him, but he already distanced himself from her. There were two reasons for doing so. First, her father is the one standing on top of Crimson. If Neito unnecessarily provoked Crimson’s boss, his head would be done for. That’s why there was no reason to get closer to her than necessary. But this reason was currently invalid. Even if her father is the Crimson’s boss, there was no reason for him to turn his fangs on Neito. It wasn’t like in the past where Neito was powerless. This in turn, created another reason. It was related to what Neito was about to do. As Neito fought on, Anice became a prominent figure in Neito’s life. [You don’t need to worry… You don’t have to tell me how you feel yet…] Anice’s words were soft and gentle. [… Really?] [It’s ‘cuz Nate is always looking forward… But I hope one day, you’ll look sideways and…] [I’ll be sure to remember that.] Anice looked embarra.s.sed and laughed it off with a “Hehe’. After that, they stopped talking and kept walking. As the day ended, he couldn’t tell Anice what he was supposed to say. It wasn’t necessarily to be said today. After all Anice helped me feel better. It can’t be considered as a gift of thanks, but I want her to sleep happily tonight… One day, I’ll definitely tell her. [I’m fine from here on… Good night Nate!] [Eh? Aah, Good night too. Thanks again.] With that Anice walked away. Her face was red when she left. I guess girls who are Californians and energetic are easily embarra.s.sed… Neito walked towards the train station and started thinkingt; Today was really fun and Anice was really cute. I was about to forget it but I can’t stray from my path. It is as she said, I should keep looking and moving forward. I’m going to depart for Crimson. That is in order for me to settle and have power inside… In order to conquer the world, I need more power. It is given that I would stand on top of Metallica, but there is no need for another evil organization. I’ll obtain that power to do so. Crimson is a huge organization. I’ll have them make me their general. Anice’s father stands on top of Crimson. There will be a time where we will oppose each other. Of course, I don’t plan on loosing. My fighting style will always be the same. No mercy, no hesitation. Whether you’re the American Rock’s organization, or Crimson’s king, I’ll have you fall. Does Anice understand that much? There’s no reason for her to know. I’ll still do it, if I change how I fight just because she’s my companion, I can’t show my face to those heroes and sacrifices that made me reach this point. Even if it results to her shedding a tear, I’ll still do it. Neito walked alone, the wind was getting chilly.
