NEET Received A Dating Sim System Part 1 (ch.1-200)

Chapter 199- Taiyaki

Seiji contemplated whether or not he should ask Mayuzumi about Shouhei Hirai as he escorted her home.

It seemed like Sensei didn't want to bring it up by herself, so, in the end, he decided to forget about it and not pry too deeply.

Seiji said goodbye and left after he accompanied Peach-sensei to her apartment.

After leaving the apartment, he called and confirmed that it wouldn't be an inconvenience for him to visit Natsuya in the hospital. He then considered what he should purchase as a get-well present.

The most typical get-well presents were obviously fruits or flowers, but Seiji didn't want to buy such a common item. While he was in the middle of thinking, he passed by a small specialty store.

"Oh... let's go with this!"

...

Haruta-kun returned.

Well, he checked himself out of the hospital and was now visiting the patients' ward, which sort of counted as "returning," although maybe it technically didn't.

The important part was that he'd returned.

Natsuya was feeling happy about this.

Seiji walked in holding a bag with unknown contents and a big grin plastered on his face, causing her to become slightly curious.

"Has Milady ever tried this sort of snack before?"

Seiji placed the bag on the table and used a napkin to take out a fish-shaped object from it.

It was taiyaki!

This was the favorite snack of Golden Darkness, and characters from Kanon, K-ON, and Bleach also loved it. It was a traditional Japanese snack that often appeared in many of his previous world's animes.

Taiyaki was a simple snack made with common ingredients that everyone could enjoy.

Seiji felt that its high rate of appearance was mainly due to its cute shape.

It seemed classically cute to have a beautiful girl eating taiyaki!

Especially if you fed one to a cat-eared loli... heh heh~

With nothing but pure and gentlemanly intentions, Seiji had purchased some taiyaki as a get-well present.

"This is... taiyaki!" Natsuya's eyes lit up. "I've seen it before... and know about it, but I've never tasted it."

She's seen it before? Was it in an anime? Hmm, that seemed rather possible. After all, she enjoyed anime about the supernatural.

"Because it's a commoner's snack, you've never tried it before?" Seiji chuckled as he handed the taiyaki on the napkin to her. "Why don't you try one right now?"

Natsuya took the napkin from him and hesitated on where to begin eating from before she opened her mouth slightly and took a tiny bite from the fish-shaped snack's head.

'So cute!'

Seiji was moved at how cute this scene seemed to him.

"So sweet... it's delicious." Natsuya gave her assessment.

The beautiful scene of the scion in a hospital gown holding the taiyaki and carefully nibbling on it etched itself deeply in Seiji's memories.

This scene was added to his CG collection album!

"It'll taste even better if you pair it with tea." Seiji fetched the teapot and poured some tea.

He also took a taiyaki and sat next to Natsuya. They enjoyed the snacks together and chatted about various topics.
