PART 27

The meeting time came, and standing at the meeting point, Itami looked at everyone else and sighed. That was because they were all carrying lots of stuff.

"Ara~ it's been a long time since I went shopping~," Risa said that but could a simple "Ara" encompass it?. Just looking at the clothes, accessories, women's products and so on, Risa alone had pretty much finished spending all the money Itami had lent her, but she insisted, 'No problem, there's still the money from the winter Comiket!'

Than he turn his eyes to her partner in the crime, or should he say the most daring thief of the team, Maya turn her face aside nervously, recognizing that she has been exposed. The lady in Question was carrying tons of shopping bags with the same content as Risa, " Ops!, I may want to far a bit in my indulgence, but on the other side wouldn't not be better to treat a guest to something nice, especially if it's a bunch lovely girls, right Itami!" Was Maya reply, she was obviously trying to let itami forget about her little theft.

Tuka was also carrying a bag that came from an outdoor product shop, as well as a compound bow wrapped up in paper from a sports product shop. As expected of a Forest Elf, everything she bought was related to the outdoors. "This bow is awesome!" she enthusiastically proclaimed.

Predictably enough, Lelei had bought about a dozen sets of books. "Books are important," she quietly said.

Apart from that, she was gingerly carrying a box with a notebook computer. Itami was worried, not because she bought a computer, but he was wondering where she would get a power supply in the Special Region.

Jack and Dhal was following holding hand together smiling, they have spend a wonderful time together in that restaurant that kuribayashi recommend it.

Rory had her huge halberd to carry around, so she bought correspondingly fewer things. She was carrying a paper bag stuffed with black-frilled ribbons, earrings, assorted clothing and other accessories. She proudly declared "picking out these things was difficult."

Rath remain cool and insusceptible as ever, However, John looked miserable. His face is completely devoid of life, his eyes empty as the deepest void. Around him, the aura of desperation settled as he held several bags of stuff. Mostly clothes what the others forced him to carry. Aside from that. He carried few Ancient Japanese weapons(swords) and Books that Rath picked and made him carry it as well saying ' If you gonna carry stuffs, then why not carry mine too!' 

As he saw the group, he immediately felt to the ground like sack of lifeless potato. "Never again... I rather fight that Amon and his crazy fanatics again than going back to that cursed place once more..." he murmured in half spleenful tone. "And I thought the first ghost program was bad..." He groaned 

Rath walked to and crouched closer to his psionic wielder friend. Poking his lifeless corpse a few times in the process "Hey...Are you alright?, Are you even alive?"

He looked up with a lifeless expression" No!... I'm not Alright!... And I'm barely even alive... One more second... And I was gonna bury that place!" He mumbled, Right now he really want to punch Rath and the rest of his group in their faces for making him carry their staffs. While he could not even pick or buy a single thing from the stores, John felt like his nothing more than there personnel carrier.

" You assholes... I'm not gonna forget this... This is the last time... I will never gonna go shopping with any women ever again!" he retorted vulgarly. The group around them just laughed in this small attic.

In contrast, Piña and Bozes, who had spent their time in the library in search of art, were very jealous of Rory and the others, who had gone shopping. Piña and Bozes could not bring any distinctive souvenirs home with them. Tomita grimly said, "They seemed to be looking for something, but they did not find it. They seemed interested in Greek and Roman carvings, but it seemed like it was different from their expectations."
