My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

"Agh! I lost again!?! Just how much do you come here?!" he asked.

"Hehe, I got one at home. Did you think I just sit in my bed doing nothing?" laughed Harumi.

"I just can\'t believe you beat me like that! Feels super unfair, that combo should be illegal!" said Frank.

"Hahaha! Cry all you want, loser!" said Harumi cheekily.

Frank was a bit surprised as he saw Harumi showing her true self. She was often shy around a lot of people, but when she relaxed and was with only him, she showed she had a lot more personality and even acted cheekily.

"Well, I can beat you in other ways!" said Frank. As he approached Harumi very closely, making her blush.

"I-In what way?" she asked while blushing.

"Heh…" Frank smirked.

…

"Agh! I can\'t believe it! I lost?! What?! How are you so good at this?!" Harumi asked in shock, glaring at Frank who was having a perfect score at competitive shooter arcade game.

He had been beating her all the time by now, this was the tenth time.

"I\'ve always liked these. When I came to Japan, I played them nonstop while learning Japanese… I haven\'t played them in like three years now… I thought I was rusty, but I still got it." laughed Frank.

"Eh… I guess we are even now…" sighed Harumi.

"Yeah, I suppose," Frank said.

The two quickly walked outside of the arcade center, although Harumi stopped in a grabbing hand machine with keychains of a series of gothic-themed animals or monsters…

"Huh?" Frank looked at the keychains and found them rather cute…

He sighed internally, as he pressed the button as he inserted several coins.

"Eh?!"

He concentrated all his senses and masterfully moved the grabbing metallic arm around, catching one of the plastic spheres and picking the price.

POP!

It came rolling outside.

"Let\'s see what you got." He said, as he opened it and what showed up was a black bat.

"Oh, fitting!" he said, giving it to her.

Harumi blushed a bit, amazed by his skills.

"T-Thanks… I didn\'t even asked for it though but… I\'ll keep it." said Harumi with a cute smile.

Frank smiled back and petted her.

"You\'re so cute when you smile." He said.

Harumi suddenly grew even redder, like a tomato. Her emotions were bubbling inside of her chest as she felt enormous embarrassment, it was as if steam came out of her ears.

She covered her face as she avoided eye contact with him all out of the sudden.

"I-Idiot, don\'t say such embarrassing things…" she said.

Frank was left a bit surprised… she was just even cuter now.

"Haha, relax. Sorry about that, sometimes I just speak without thinking… Do you feel hungry?" he asked.

"Hungry? Yeah…" she said.

"How about we go grab some food?" he asked.

"Okay but no fast food." She said.

"Hahaha! My American spirit was calling for a hamburger, but sure, let\'s go to a cafeteria I know nearby, they sell some nice Omurice. You like that?" asked Frank.

Omurice was actually one of Harumi\'s favorite meals.

"Sounds better that some boring frozen hamburgers with some soggy fries." She said.

"Haha, you\'re so picky." Laughed Frank finding her amusing sometimes.

Harumi smiled back at him with a serene look, her eyes were clearly showing a lot of love for him, Frank didn\'t looked at her eyes whenever she looked at him as he concentrated himself in not looking her to not embarrass himself. He was keeping his cool, but it was getting hard.

The two walked to the cafeteria, but Harumi was left? bit surprised.

"Welcome, nya!"

There was a cute girl around her late teens wearing a maid outfit and cat-like ears.

Harumi blushed a bit after looking at her.

"Huh? Nya?" asked Frank while raising an eyebrow.

"Is this the Cafeteria you wanted to go into? A maid café? Really?" asked Harumi.

"No, you\'re getting it wrong, Harumi! It wasn\'t like that… Can you tell me what happened? I remember there were no maids here before…." Said Frank.

He was acting rude, but his face was so enchanting that the girl felt compelled to answer him.

"W-Well, two years ago the owner changed, and he implemented maids… and it has been rising in popularity lately, we are earning very well, and the work shifts are pretty decent! Hey, you look super cute too, want to work here?" asked the girl to Harumi.

"M-Me?! N-No thanks!" said Harumi.

"Why not? You look so cute, imagine in a maid outfit! Are you her boyfriend? Don\'t worry, we\'ll protect her well if any perv shows up." Said the girl.

"H-He\'s not my boyfriend…" said Harumi.

"W-We are just friends from high school…" laughed Frank nervously.

"Oh… You\'re so handsome. The owner thought the other day about making some special days with handsome and cute boys as butlers, do you want to try a butler outfit? I am sure you\'ll look so nice! If the owner likes your style, she\'ll immediately contract you!" she said.

"Oh my god let\'s get out of here quickly." Said Harumi, grabbing Frank\'s hand and moving away from the place as fast as she possibly could.

Frank smiled apologetically at the girl.

"Sorry for the inconvenience!" he said.

"S-Sure…" sighed the girl.

"Damn it, these two were so cute together…" she sighed.

"Frank! What the heck?" asked Harumi.

"Hahaha! I didn\'t knew they changed! Calm down!" said Frank.

"You didn\'t knew they became a maid café?" asked Harumi.

"I didn\'t! I came here three years ago, and it was a pretty decent place… an old man attended here… I guess he retired, and the daughter began to work or something…" said Frank.

"Ugh, I guess it is really not your fault… Well, are going to my place now." Sighed Harumi.

"Your place? You know of one?" asked Frank.

"Yeah, a few of our fellow Vampires work there." Said Harumi.

"R-Really?!" asked Frank in surprise.
