Reincarnated as a chicken

The parents pt.1

So somehow, I managed to let my chuunibyou urges takeover. Ok, to be honest, I only let them live because I was scared they might have possessed a sort of connection to an actual hero. If a hero got angry at me, I'd be in for a ride which I wasn't interested in at the moment.

I wanted to just let them go away, but the Marcus guy was following me and I couldn't just teleport into a random spot in the city while Yokino was missing. If someone related to these guys had done something to Yokino (Like captured her), I could use these guys as hostages or bargaining chips as well.

We were currently walking down the streets.

"Have you eaten ice cream, before?"

Marcus asked me.

'Hmmm? Ice cream?'

"Yep. It is sweet ice that you can eat during hot seasons like this one."

Ice cream existed in this world? That sounded like fun, but now wasn't the time. I refused the offer and kept on walking about the streets quietly. I was headed towards the point on my map where Kawaii was. She had moved from where she was last night, although that would have been a bit tough to notice since the map had no details whatsoever – a blank space with a dot on it.

"Tori, which hero is your favorite?"

Marcus asked something in my ear, but something came to my legs. I looked down and saw a chicken. Confused, I tried to pet it, but it took a step back.

"HAHA! Found you, Sister!"

The damned chicken spoke to me.

'W-What?'

"Did you know? Oh! The Dark Church approaches!"

'What?'

"Hey Tori."

"The Dark Church! HAHA! They seek to destroy us! We shan't allow this!"

'Shan't allow what? And who is we?'

BAM!

A metal cage came slamming down over the chicken, startling me. A skinny shirtless kid slid a piece of board under it, then lifted it up.

"Damned chickens! Running all around."

He turned around to leave and I tried to grab his arm, however, Marcus grabbed mine.

"Tori! Can you hear me?!"

The retarded blonde shouted in my ear. I grabbed his ear and brought him to his knees.

"Ow! Ow! I-I apologise!"

'You don't interrupt a busy person, understand?'

"Y-Yes, yes."

I turned around, but then the boy was gone.

'What happened to the boy that was here a minute ago?'

"W-What bo-OW!"

'Some shrimp. A little taller than me, pale skin, no meat, dirty hair, black eyes?'

"That sounds like every boy in this city.

Mira said and I realized it immediately. Looking all around, the kids were skinny and in rags. Not wanting to think about depressing things, I decided to answer his question.

'Why would I have a favorite hero, you idiot?'

"How the hell am I supposed to know!? Everyone has a favorite hero, you damned brat!"

I seemed to have triggered him. If I continued, we would have gone on like this endlessly, but this wasn't the time for this.

'Erm... the flashy one?'
