Chapter 1 – Empty-handed Elf
Tatsuya was at the airport.
Today was the day that Alicia was coming to Japan.
Despite them going out to meet someone who came from a parallel world, the reason for coming to the airport was simple.
It was because there was transition equipment in the airport.
Although it wasn’t known universally, because the world was interacting continuously since World War 2, people like big-shots and political circles knew about the existence of Amales. So, a transition device among other things was installed in a place like this.
……The top-brass of the country appeared to have grasped not only Amales but also the existences of demi-humans and monsters. Tatsuya heard that from his father.
That is to say, it ‘seemed’ that ordinary households like the Endou household weren’t informed of the detailed matters.
Perhaps, there might also be coming and goings to a parallel world other than Amales.
“Come to think of it, even if you didn’t come to welcome her, luggage holding was plenty with just me.” (Tatsuya)
Tatsuya called out to his little sister, Saori, who came with him.
“I want to meet Alicichan fast, even if just a little more.” (Saori)
Although it would be a difference of around 1 hour at most, it seemed that Saori was unable to wait for that difference.
“Well, it’s fine. More hands are better.” (Tatsuya)
There was furniture and the like prepared here, but they should have brought a change of clothes and the like for the meantime.
It would be best to think that there was a quantity as is.
By the way, originally his father was supposed to come to welcome her, but it seemed that a sudden job came in, and he had gone to work on his day off.
“I wonder if Alicichan has changed?” (Saori)
Saori said such a thing suddenly.
“Did you see her picture?” (Tatsuya)
“Not her appearance, but such things as her personality.” (Saori)
Certainly. Tatsuya thought.
Eight years and several months.
She had been an elementary school student, and was also a senior high school student.
Both Tatsuya and his little sister Saori, if they were asked whether or not they were the same as in those days, there was a part to think with doubt.
He’d already seen her current appearance in the photograph, but there was no guarantee that it was her as is in his memory.
Or, how should he put it, if it was following the photograph, if it was the case where she who was raised as a quite beautiful girl had the speech and conduct of an elementary school student as is, it was dangerous in various ways.
A change fitting the years should be natural.
“Ah, isn’t that her?” (Saori)
Saori pointed to a girl and said.
Like their younger aunt Mary, a blonde beautiful girl with a rough appearance of a shirt and jeans.
Hair lengthened until her waist, and a slender figure that could win even when compared to idols. It was to the point he was able to declare that.
She would certainly be popular even at school.
Full Name: Endou Alicia (Virgin)
Species: Elf
Age: 16
Family Members: Father・Mother
Physical Strength: 88
Muscle Strength: 93
(The rest is omitted)
Tatsuya confirmed her status just to be sure, it was Alicia without mistake.
When older brother and younger sister waved their hands and appealed, she also seemed to have noticed this way, and after showing a little shocked look, she approached with a smiling face.
“Tatsuya, Saori, it’s been a while!” (Alicia)
While saying so, Alicia embraced Tatsuya.
“Wha!? Hey……” (Tatsuya)
For a moment, Tatsuya nearly produced a loud voice, but due to the nature of the place that was the airport lobby, he kept his voice down somehow.
Tatsuya, with one thing or another, was a good-for-nothing who had 3 lovers.
He was used to skinship with girls to a certain extent. Nonetheless, he was also surprised when he was hugged in a place like this abruptly.
“Alicichan, hey, separate!” (Saori)
While Saori also kept down her voice, Alicia rebuked.
“What, Saori. Jealous? Even if you don’t worry, look, gyuuu~!” (Alicia)
Alicia separated from Tatsuya and embraced Saori this time.
——This person, she hadn’t changed!
It was an instant where the older brother and younger sister’s thoughts matched.
Alicia was a so-called hugging devil, and had clung to her family every time there was something.
Incidentally, she was a kissing demon that kissed you immediately when you were negligent.
This had been restricted when there were no adults’ stares……
For both Tatsuya and Saori, their first kiss was Alicia. It was also said that ‘when they were children didn’t count’, but until about what age would it? Elementary school students felt like going out. Tatsuya’s kiss with Megumi was his first if it didn’t count.
The nature of the place called the airport, because there were people of various countries, there were also people who were embracing and welcoming here and there, so naturally even if Tatsuya and others embracing each other wasn’t inconspicuous as is……Alicia was a beautiful girl, and was gathering attention.
“First of all, because we will be hindering other people if we stay here, let’s move. ……Come to think of it, Alicia, the luggage is?” (Tatsuya)
As far as Tatsuya saw, Alicia was empty-handed. There were no suitcase cases, and her hand-luggage was nothing.
“There is. Look, here.” (Alicia)
Alicia separated from Saori and pointed near her stomach.
——She had acquired a thing he remembered.
No, he hadn’t seen the real thing.
However, there would be hardly any people who didn’t know that in Japan. It was a famous product even internationally.
“No way……” (Tatsuya)
“Indeed, a 4-Dimensional Poc◯t~” (Alicia)¹
Questionably skillful, Alicia imitated a new voice.
So that it couldn’t be seen by the surroundings, she took out and displayed things that were inside a little, but certainly, it seemed that her luggage was inside this.
“No, if you speak of elves, there would be things like storage magic and item boxes……” (Tatsuya)
“Amazing amazing! I saw the real thing for the first time!” (Saori)
Saori was frankly interested, but Tatsuya just held his head.
Originally, it would be a place where he was surprised at the fantastic surprise item, but this area was slightly off in various ways and his interest was blown off entirely.
“Saori is frank as usual, huh. Tatsuya also, worrying about the small details too much as usual.” (Alicia)
While Alicia laughed, she delightfully said ‘I haven’t changed’.
