Chapter 501 The Most Terrifying

Chapter 501 The Most Terrifying
The following day, at 4:45 PM.

"Then let's head out."

"Be careful on the road."

After greeting Ryoko Hamabe at the entrance, Yu Watanabe and Ayana Amamiya turned and walked toward the restaurant where they had arranged to meet Sumire Eda.

"I thought you would bring Ryoko along."

After walking at a leisurely pace for about a minute, the young lady, dressed in a green knitted pinafore dress, started the conversation in a light and cheerful tone.

Although it wasn't quite right to think about it so secretly, she was genuinely glad that Yu had chosen to take her instead of Ryoko or Yuki.

“Bringing Ryoko along isn’t really appropriate. Besides, the way you’re talking makes me feel like this is a bit…unlike you.”

Watanabe Yu slowed down his pace and then stretched comfortably.

It's almost afternoon, and the temperature is very comfortable right now.

Of the four seasons, he likes autumn and summer the most. The former is when the temperature is just right when it doesn't rain, neither too cold nor too hot, and the latter is because he can eat seasonal watermelons.

"What do you mean by not looking like me anymore?"

Ayana Amamiya put her hands behind her back and walked briskly.

She enjoyed these moments alone with him.

"Because... how should I put it, you're not usually like this; you're more refined in general?"

Watanabe Yu pondered the words for a long time before finally managing to squeeze out this sentence.

"Are you trying to say that I'm not usually this jealous?"

The young lady gave him a charmingly disdainful look. They had known each other for so long, how could she not understand his unspoken meaning?

"not quite."

Watanabe Yu shook his head. Jealousy, or rather possessiveness, was just one half of the meaning he wanted to express, but didn't know how to put into words.

"In a relationship, both parties will have a strong desire to possess, protect, and love each other. These feelings are mixed together to form the true feeling of being in love."

Ayana Amamiya raised her chin, paused deliberately as if a teacher were lecturing, and then slowly revealed her true thoughts.

"If a girl doesn't have any possessiveness towards her boyfriend in a relationship, it only proves that she doesn't like him. I usually suppress those emotions. I'm not a robot, I can't be completely indifferent. If I could, I would want to have you all to myself."

She wouldn't have gone to such lengths if she didn't want to put Mr. Troll in a difficult position.

Of course, part of the reason is based on her past and the environment in which she grew up. If her past and the environment in which she grew up were not like that, she would definitely fight Ryoko and the others to the end.

Unfortunately, in real life there are no "what ifs," only consequences and results.

"Feel sorry."

Watanabe Yu pursed his lips and apologized.

Other issues are easy to discuss, but this is the one thing he really doesn't know how to respond to or make amends for.

That's why the Holy Maiden was willing to accept it. If it were any other girl, she probably would have already uttered that classic line: "Me or her, who do you choose?"

"Those who are loved do not need to apologize."

Ayana Amamiya shook her head indifferently. She had felt a little jealous before she said those words, but after she said them, she didn't feel anything anymore.

Right now, the only emotion I can feel is a mix of laughter and tears.

She inherited her mother's temperament; once she likes someone, she's completely devoted to that person, and she'll listen to whatever they say.

Similarly, if it's something you don't like, you won't even glance at it no matter what you say.

"I started to feel guilty."

Watanabe opened his mouth and said the words, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Theoretically speaking, he should have shed these guiltes the day he decided to become the God of Pure Love, but unfortunately, he seems unable to.

“This is my own choice, and it’s the same for Yuki and Ryoko.” Ayana Amamiya chuckled softly, then shook her head. “We all know very well what we are doing.”

This can be considered a commonality among the three of them.

Although the forms of expression are different, the final result is the same.

They all clearly knew what they were doing, what the consequences of their choices would be, and whether they were prepared to accept those consequences.

"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore, let's talk about something happy."

After saying that, the young lady coughed lightly and took the initiative to change the subject.

Feeling guilty can evoke feelings of remorse and a desire to make amends, but too much guilt can cause problems in a relationship.

When she mentioned it just now, aside from telling the truth, there was also a little bit of her own ulterior motive.

In his presence, she was a girl who needed attention, not the decisive and seemingly invincible young lady of the Amamiya family.

Of course, once they go to university and reach the appropriate age, she can change this self-designation that she doesn't particularly like.

She would rather be the eldest daughter of the Watanabe family than the eldest daughter of that other family.

"for example?"

Watanabe Yu took a deep breath, composed himself, and then continued the conversation.

He could tell that Ayana was telling the truth, but that made his feelings even more complicated.

“Like horror movies.” Ayana Amamiya moved closer to him and then naturally took his hand. “When Akane was here before, didn’t we watch a horror movie together at night?”

To be honest, they're both bad at the game and love to have fun.

However, if she had to say something, she found it quite strange. She used to be completely indifferent to horror movies; not only was she not interested, but even if she saw them, she wouldn't feel scared.

But now, she feels that she is slowly becoming less brave.

"Ah."

Watanabe Yu nodded; he remembered this incident.

"Then that night, Qian was still messaging me until 2 a.m.

Ayana Amamiya shook her head helplessly.

"So it seems you're the bravest one in the family?"

Upon hearing this, Watanabe Yu smiled and teased the young lady.

At least based on what he actually saw, when there were scary scenes, Akane instinctively hid behind Ayana, while Ryoko would move closer to him along with Ayana.

"Isn't it you?"

Ayana Amamiya asked a question in return.

Some people say they're scared, but they're actually quite relaxed when watching horror movies. They might even take out a piece of paper to jot down notes and analyze the movie along the way.

When faced with scary scenes, he'll only be slightly frightened and recover quickly.

"Me? I'm not really capable."

Watanabe Yu waved his hand. He wasn't scared that day only because the movie wasn't scary enough, and the male and female leads' acting was a bit too much, so he couldn't get into the atmosphere at all.

For example, if you listen to rap while watching Slit-Mouthed Woman, the horror level decreases by 80%, but the fun factor increases by 60%. Even scenes where someone suddenly lunges at you will be much less terrifying.

Some of the bolder viewers even paused the video to carefully examine the actress's makeup and then see if she was pretty enough.

"Big liar." Ayana Amamiya scoffed.

He said this before watching the horror movie, and he said the same thing after watching it, but she saw his reactions in between.

"I'm not lying, it's just that the horror movie we watched that day wasn't scary enough, the overall atmosphere wasn't very good, and most importantly, the acting of the male and female leads was a bit forced, don't you think?"

Watanabe Yu began to explain.

It's hard to imagine that in this day and age, horror movies would cast popular young actors.

It's not that the popular young actors aren't serious; it's just that their acting skills are what they are. He can see that they've already tried very hard, but like high school students facing final exams, some things can't be achieved just by trying.

"Okay?"

She thought it was acceptable.

"So she talked to you until the early hours of the morning that night, and then what?"

Watanabe Yu coughed lightly, changing the subject back.

“Then I couldn’t sleep.” Ayana Amamiya sighed. “I just held you like that until four in the morning before I finally fell asleep.”

Because she hadn't rested well, she was in very low spirits that day, and Risa asked her several times if she needed to rest.

The latter assumed she was working overtime again for company matters.

"It's a blessing in disguise that I didn't have any nightmares."

At least he watched horror movies before he time-traveled, so he'll definitely have nightmares at night.

Even when he was in college, when everyone got together to watch a horror movie, all five of them in the dorm would stare at each other, unable to sleep at all.

"I guess so." Ayana Amamiya paused. "If you hadn't been there that day, I probably wouldn't have been able to sleep until four in the morning."

She didn't know about other things, but at least from the moment they started sleeping together, she became more and more dependent on him.

"It can't be that bad." Watanabe Yu gently squeezed the hand he was holding. "Speaking of which, will the haunted house we set up for this school festival leave any psychological trauma on the guests?"

Although the overall flow and plot were fine, and the guests' feedback was very good, the costumes, props and sets they chose were really well done, meaning that the horror was definitely delivered when it was supposed to be scary.

"Probably? Someone as timid as me might even have nightmares."

Ayana Amamiya thought for a moment and gave a very honest answer.

Strangely enough, she didn't have any nightmares after falling asleep at four in the morning that day.

Which type of nightmare do you find the scariest?

Watanabe Yu then brought up a new topic.

"That kind of nightmare that always makes you feel hopeless, right?"

Ayana Amamiya thought for a moment, then immediately shook her head; she didn't want to recall those memories anymore.

Just thinking about it terrifies her.

"That's scary, but not to the point of being particularly scary."

Watanabe Yu slowed his pace, his gaze falling on the restaurant sign across the street, the meeting place Aunt Eda had arranged.

In the golden afternoon sunlight, the signboard of the barbecue restaurant seemed to be covered with a layer of gilding.

The aroma of roasted meat wafted out on the breeze.

"Then tell me, which one is the scariest?"

Ayana Amamiya became interested.

She might not be very brave when watching horror movies, but when it comes to talking about these kinds of things, she's incredibly brave.

"The scariest one..." Watanabe Yu paused for a moment, "It's when you dream about going to the toilet at night, and then you find the toilet, but when you're unbuckling your belt, you suddenly realize you're dreaming."

Of course, this is already considered good. The most terrifying thing is when the release has already begun, and then you come to your senses. That's not just a false alarm, but a real disaster.

"..."

Amamiya Ayana suddenly fell silent, then punched someone in an annoyed tone!
She thought he was going to say something! But it turned out he was going to say this!!

"Hey, tell me, isn't it scary!"

Watanabe Yu said this while pretending to grimace in pain.

What's more suffocating than horror movies is often life itself. For example, it's Monday, and you haven't finished your homework yet, but the teacher has already appeared in front of you, asking you to hand it in.

"That's not the kind of horror I'm talking about!"

Ayana Amamiya raised her little fist and punched someone again.

"OK~"

Yu Watanabe provided an answer.

If the young lady of the Holy Maiden's little fists pounded frequently enough, perhaps he could also copy the Tsar and utter that trembling phrase, "Your emperor has returned."

"I'm not going to mess with you anymore, it's pointless." Seeing Mr. Troll's thick-skinned appearance, Ayana Amamiya snorted in annoyance, then changed the subject, "What are we going to talk about later? Casual chat, or something about work?"

She personally prefers to just chat.

After all, it's the first time someone has invited you to dinner, and they're doing it through their daughter. It's really inappropriate for you to start talking about work right away.

Of course, the most crucial point is that even if you talk about work, people may not necessarily respond.

“It’s definitely just casual conversation,” Watanabe Yu replied without hesitation. “We won’t talk about anything unpleasant, just school life and Akane’s situation. The focus is on the second point.”

Compared to when he first started interacting with Jiang Tianqian, he now has some other feelings for her.

It wasn't the kind of attraction between men or anything like that; it was simply a hope that this girl could achieve her dream of becoming a better person.

"Ah."

Ayana Amamiya nodded slightly.

As it turns out, Mr. Troll was not impatient for quick success.

And that's enough.

"There's one more thing."

"what?"

"We're going to have barbecue later," Watanabe paused for a moment. "I plan to have several servings."

There's a saying that goes, "If you have the chance to rip off a big spender, then you should never hesitate."

After all, both Akane and Sumire Eda said they'd eat as much as they wanted! So he's not going to hold back!
"..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ayana Amamiya was taken aback for a moment, then laughed helplessly.

After all this time, Mr. Troll is still the same as before, unchanged.

"You really are the same as before."
