Magical Boy ~ English version

Chapter 40

Classes had simply resumed, and Nanaya felt lighter, certainly no longer having to hide. He didn't show his emotions much more, out of habit, but tried to let go. However, he did not necessarily understand the jokes and even less the cinematographic or literary references. To be able to mix more easily, he had decided to spend a little more time in the library of the complex. And on the advice of his friends, had chosen several books to read. He had a lot to catch up on. But he liked the different recommendations from his friends, and he had already finished several books in just two weeks.

This Saturday, he was still sitting in the library, immersed in a book proposed by Mineko. He wasn't sure he understood everything. It was a romance. He wanted to ask his friend later the meaning of certain words. Mineko had asked for an exit permit to take a walk with Rena. There were several other students in the library and his guardian was hovering behind his shoulder, but Nanaya paid no attention until an arm passed over his shoulder and another person sat in front of him. He looked up to see the twins.

"Are you finished soon?" Haru asked.

"No..." Nanaya muttered. "I keep rereading the same sentences to try to understand them, it slows down my reading. "

Jun grabbed the book to take a look. He grimaced.

"Orio-chan?" He guessed.

"Yes." His comrade asserted.

"Not surprising. She knows very well that you do not know too much about this subject."

"She told me that would help."

"And that's the case ?" Haru asked.

"Not really..."

"Well. Don't force yourself then."

"What would you say to discovering films with us instead?" Jun added. "We have a small selection that you will undoubtedly like!"

"But where ?" Nanaya asked.

"We ask for permission to sleep at home and we have a TV night."

"Jun." Cut off his brother. "Mom's not home and we don't have the keys."

"Oh... oh, no... we bought those blue-rays on purpose while shopping last week..."

"I've never used it." Nanaya interrupted. "But we have a blue-rays lector at the mansion. "

The two brothers immediately recovered their smile.

"True ?!" Haru exclaimed. "So, you want to discover these films, say ?!"

"Why not ?" The young man replied more calmly. "I've never seen one."

"Let's go ask permission!" Jun replied immediately.

Several students present begged them to be silent. The twins apologized, before quickly dragging their friend out of the room to the infirmary. They didn't want to spend hours looking for a teacher. The permission could be signed by any S.D.A. employee. They were surprised to find Nakamara there. He had come to see Starlight, to discuss his prosthesis and had taken the opportunity to visit Phen-X.

With his consent as well, the nurse signed their permission and it was Nakamara who accompanied them outside and then to the mansion, not without sending a message to Thoki. The butler wasn't there when they arrived.

"I sent him out to do some shopping." Assured the adult. "I have to prepare myself. I'm leaving for America tonight."

"Already?" Nanaya wondered.

"I'm fine. Most of my bruises have faded. This is an important interview to confirm my withdrawal from crime and to talk about plans for Uchiri Corporation."
