Chapter 1824: God and Koppepan
Before I knew it, I found myself in a place that seemed to be a school rooftop, with its striking wire mesh and concrete. For the time being, let's organize the situation I went to Kaori-san's restaurant with Neun-san, and Olivia-san joined in later. After that, we chatted about the aforementioned party and other things.
Without any particular issues, our chat time ended, and we dispersed. After returning home, I spent the day as usual and went to sleep or so I thought, but I'm now in this situation.
Unnn. At this point, I can already tell who caused this situation. And as if to affirm my conjecture, a cheerful voice resounded.
[Well~~ school rooftops really are brimming with youth!]
[I suppose so. Well, the high school I went to didn't allow access to the rooftop though]
[Ahh~~ that's certainly how it commonly is. In fiction works, school rooftops are often depicted, but in reality, many rooftops aren't accessible due to safety considerations.]
[Right Ah, for the time being, hello, Makina-san. Is this, like, inside a dream?]
[Hello, my beloved child. I see you look exceptionally cute today again! Unnn! As usual, this is inside my child's dream~~ I made it so we're on the rooftop today!]
With her single mechanical wing and rainbow-colored eyes, suddenly appearing before my eyes was Makina-san, the main body of Eden-san. She often interferes with my dreams like this.
I tend to forget my memories during these encounters when I wake up, so when I encounter dreams like this I would often just think "Ah, I see.". That especially goes when I remember Mana-san, who I've realized by recollecting my time here, was actually Makina-san.
While pondering about these things, Makina-san, with a bright smile on her lips, offered me what seemed to be a carton of milk and packaged koppepan.
On the other hand, when she's in her Makina-san form, she tends to bring up various topics. Perhaps because Makina-san herself has a cheerful personality, talking like this is quite enjoyable.
No, of course, there's always the caveat of "assuming she doesn't go out of control", but at least I feel like my discomfort with her, which I had before, has somewhat diminished.
[I like that one bread too. You know, the rollpan with raisins inside and brushed with margarine.]
[Ahh~~ yeah, those are great. They taste even better when heated up, but there's always the risk of the margarine oozing out when you bite into it.]
[I know what you mean. It gets sticky on your hands.]
[Exactly! Moreover, it's not like the margarine would be properly applied to every section of the bread, so it would sometimes ooze out and sometimes not, which makes it tricky. But well, eating it like that is still delicious, so I end up heating them anyway Speaking of raisin filling, there's also mushipan]
Watching Makina-san, whose expressions change frequently but always with a bright smile on her lips, I couldn't help but smile too.
Just like that, we spent some time chatting happily about bread for a while, enjoying an indescribably peaceful moment with Makina-san.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Arehh? His evaluation of Makina-san surprisingly isn't bad He did say that "assuming she doesn't go out of control" part, but I still feel like they've gotten pretty close to each other.]
<Translator's Notes>
