Chapter 42 - Meeting An Acquaintance? (Edited)

The amusement park :-

Tohru was deeply fascinated by the things that she had seen in the park, a huge circle with booths attached to it was spinning at a moderate pace at the side, several carts conjoined together that moved so fast that the humans riding it were screaming in enjoyment. ??

They were obviously the ferris wheel and the rollercoaster, they were just one of the few attractions that she saw in the park, instinctive curiosity had enveloped her being. Her eyes were sparkling in wonder and amazement.

Gazing at Tohru, Kyle smiled, his expression showcasing his affection, Tohru looked just like a curious child, brought forward to the wonders of the modern world for the first time. She looked exceptionally cute, coupled with her round face, her beauty and appeal mesmerized Kyle's heart; he didn't interrupt her nor he had any thoughts of interrupting her. He wanted her to enjoy the sight as he kept enjoying her mesmerizing visage.

Few minutes trickled by, Tohru having her fill being lost in the wonderland of imagination snapped back into reality, she was deeply embarrassed for losing herself in her own land of dreams by seeing these attractions. She hastened an apology to the person beside her, still smilingly looking at her face. "I'm sorry! I-i was just-"

He didn't let her finish, replying instead in a soft voice full of tender affection. "Don't worry about it Tohru, you can lose yourself in their wonders as long as you want, besides I myself too have a wonderful sight to behold my eyes to in the meantime, and I for one am sure that it's far more beautiful than any attractions this place has to offer."

"E-eh?! R-really?" Slightly perturbed at the start it didn't take her long to catch onto what Kyle had hinted at, he had praised her, and quite highly at that, a deep blush crept up her neck and dyed her round cheeks in a reddish hue, she blushed profusely at the sudden complement.

"Yeah, a pity… anyways, now that you have snapped back to the realm of reality, tell me which attraction would you like to ride first?" He asked.

"I-i get to choose?! Is it really okay?" This was out of Tohru's expectations. Being a dragon and arriving from a war torn world Tohru had zero wisdom of romantic interactions in general. She couldn't, since most of her life she was either escaping from her pursuers, the ones who wanted to kill her, or waging wars on the Gods and the Harmony faction. She didn't even know the meaning of the word date until a few days ago. And what she knew was a bit contrived. Her knowledge of it was - a boy and a girl going out to a place and having fun, which to some extent was true but it didn't quite explain the romanticism involved in it. Still, even though she was confused, even though she didn't know half of what she would do on a date, Kyle's words made her excited, clear expectations echoed in her voice.

"Of course! Listen here, Tohru, since I'm the one who invited you on a date, needless to say I have to take care of you and pay heed to your preferences. I want you to have fun, choosing your own way of having fun and if you're able to enjoy this date, have fun and be happy, it'll also make me immeasurably happy." 

".....T-then, can we ride that moving cart?!" Tohru didn't respond at first, she was just gazing at my face, shock, excitement, tender affection, myriads of emotions all pointing towards the love she felt for him interchanged in her beautiful visage, then she looked around and excitedly pointed towards the rollercoaster and asked in an almost pleading manner, she really wanted to start with riding the rollercoaster, that much was confirmed.

"Ah, the rollercoaster huh.. of course we can, I told you didn't I, today is all about you, we'll do whatever you may desire!" Kyle answered in a firm, affectionate tone. Tohru's eyes glazed in excitement and endearment, nodding she immediately dragged him with her to the first attraction they were going to experience, the rollercoaster, Kyle led her to the direction of the ticket booth, informing her on the way that they needed tickets to enjoy the rides.

Kyle gave her some money and left her to her own devices. The logic behind this action of his was to let Tohru experience how to buy a ticket from the booth. It was both a necessity and new experience for her that he was sure to enjoy, the sparkle in her eyes, when he gave her the money and asked her to buy tickets for them, confirmed his assumption. Besides, in the future he wouldn't have to worry about her not being able to buy a ticket by letting her experience it now. It was a win-win situation.

As Tohru was buying the tickets, the booth attendant was left confounded by Tohru's beauty, she was also a woman, maybe slightly older than Tohru's age, and she was sure that compared to the bubbly dragon of chaos she could be said to be nothing, even though from an average person's standards she could also be classified as a beauty. A depressed self deprecating sigh escaped her lips as she handed Tohru the tickets, only one thought kept passing in her mind, reverberating over and over. 'Why has GOD made us so unfairly?!' 

Grabbing the tickets Tohru approached Kyle with an excited expression as she exclaimed in a tad bit childish glee, happy that she was able to accomplish her task and thrilled for what's to come. "I got it, I got it Kyle! Let's ride it now!"

"Yes, yes I can see it now let's go, shall we?" 

"Mhm!" Hand in hand, both of them went and entered the waiting line to the rollercoaster ride, as they chatted merrily all the passengers and fellow liners were looking at Tohru shell shocked and in awe of her ethereal charm.

Nobody could believe that a woman of such beauty and allure could exist… Her ethereal beauty and mesmerising charm were beyond description, even the word 'goddess' failed to describe the appeal that was possessed by Tohru. Her mere presence was enough to incite beguilement among the masses.

All in all every single person in the surroundings, be it the passengers, the visitors or the staff were all drawn in to look at Tohru and her beauty, Kyle was thoroughly ignored, even though he could be barely categorized as handsome and stylish with his choice of clothes, compared to Tohru.. yeah, it wasn't a surprise that nobody even registered his existence.

He didn't mind however, he himself was the most aware of the discrepancy between the both of them, whether it was in power or charisma he was nothing in comparison to Tohru. It was a fluke, a stroke of fate that he was even able to date her.

The greater miracle was that this supreme beauty was also incomparably in love with him, he was truly a lucky bastard. If he only knew just how many goddesses, in their own beauty and right, was vying for his attention and affection nobody knew how he would react. ( Bar us of course! )

To his knowledge only Tohru and Esdeath were in love with him, among them one was out of his reach and even if she wasn't, by virtue of the system, she was still a child; the other was the one he was aiming for currently, but this sharp yet dense guy was unable to notice the other's feelings for him. Something that was surely to land him in a spiral of never ending troubles.

Lastly Kanna, she was definitely excluded! She was after all his precious little sister, the little babe he would dote his brotherly affection on. Little did he know that in the future, these very words would come and slap his face hard at how wrong he was to utter them. ( We may need to have a battle of Gods for that one Charlottes, because nobody lewds my little Kana!!!!! )

But that was a story for another time, for now though he and Tohru were still riding the rollercoaster, enjoying it to the fullest, Tohru in particular was barely containing herself from jumping, such was her zeal of the ensuing situation. "It moved! It moved! Whee… it's moving so fast!!!" 

The passangers hearing her cheerful shouts smiled at this display of cuteness, Tohru's childlike excitement melted everyone's heart. Her enthusiasm was similar to that of a child's getting a brand new toy to play with.

If only they could see her real form, they would surely be pissing their pants and skirts, but they couldn't, so it was proper for them to have these thoughts and act as such. Only Kyle and Kobayashi San were truly able to accept Tohru at her entirety and in a carefree manner with her.

The rollercoaster, in the meantime, had reached the highest point, and was now going to fall down, many were excited, some were scared after all, those who rode the rollercoaster were either excitement seekers or being forced by their partners.

Finally the awaited moment came and the rollercoaster fell in a staggering speed, the people screamed in a contrasting state of excitement, joy and fear!

Tohru was in the group representing excitement and joy, this was, if she had to be truthful, nothing compared to when she flew, but that void was filled by the fact that she was able to enjoy this in her human form without using her powers or wings; however the crux of it all was that she was able to enjoy this together with the man she loved, the exhilaration and fulfilment she was currently feeling was utterly indescribable.

After a few rounds of rolling around, the ride had come to its termination, Tohru's excitement and agitation was still present and she threw caution to the wind and exclaimed in an delightful voice. "Kyle let's ride it again!"

"Sure, sure." He couldn't just refuse this cute dragon maid of his, so they rode it for 7 times and finally moved on to other attractions.

Next they tried the ferris wheel, though it wasn't of the same level of excitement as the previous, both of them still enjoyed it, next was the horror house and to his utter surprise; Tohru was actually afraid of the attraction he didn't think that he would see this side of her, this date was totally worth it, why wouldn't it be he had found out a cute and new side of her that he could treasure and keep to himself.

So they continued on their journey to try more attractions, and so a few hours later, they decided to take a break and eat some food, none of them are actually hungry though, to be precise even if they didn't eat anything for decades they would still be alive and fit, hell they were immortal, they had no need for food. Kyle because he was a God and as long as he held onto his divinity and fate of his believers he would always exist, Tohru's case was however a bit unique, she was a variant dragon and she could survive as long as she had Mana, fun fact, Tohru could produce Mama just by existing so it was impossible for her to die naturally and nigh improbable for anyone to kill her, only the God she fought and was defeated by had the ability to do that.

They went to the amusement park cafeteria, arriving they found a place to sit down. There was still one table remaining that could fit 4 people comfortably. It was empty and they didn't waste a second to occupy it, after sitting down, they relaxed they had been on a non-stop journey in between the rides and their muscles had become a little stiff which was able to relax now.

"Hoohh, we're quite lucky that this table is empty."

"Yeah." 

Their conversation was halted by the arrival of a couple of individuals, their voice echoing in Kyle's ears. "Hey, can we both sit down here?"

Kyle immediately agreed, not noticing that he already heard that voice before. "Go on, it's empty anyways."

"Thanks." He glanced at said individual and was immediately startled by her identity, he knew this individual! 

At the same time she also recognized him, both of them exclaimed simultaneously. One's tone echoing happiness the other's tinged with slight worry.

"Kyle?!"

"Meru?!"
