“Alicia, please don’t. They will think you are a virus as well.” Elara pulled on my sleeve so I could only hold back. Although seeing these things do my bidding would be quite funny. Watching them bash that smile off his face. I had seen smiles like that many times. The men with bad thoughts always smiled at me like that. There were two different kinds of smiles. One was those who were kind and those who were bad. This was a bad smile.
“Don’t be afraid, ladies. I will finish clearing things up now.” The bad man replied.
“Elara, stay away from him. He looks like someone who will try to eat you if he gets his hands on you. He’s a bad man.” I stated flatly. I did not try to lower my voice. I wanted the bad man to hear it.
“Alicia, he’s not bad. His name is Techno Tom. He’s a Techno-Alchemist and is one of the champion players, a champion of humanity.” Elara explained, but no matter what he was or is, right now, he was still a bad man.
“More like Lustboy Tom. Techno… He had such a lust-filled grin when he looked at you. It was like he was undressing you with his eyes.” I explained, only to hear a thumping sound not far away. Elara and I both turned to see Lustboy falling to the ground face-first. The green things all pointed and laughed at him. “How is he a champion!? He can’t even walk! If he is a humanities champion then humanity is done for!”
“I ummm…” Elara seemed to be at a loss for words. It was true, though. How can someone who trips over their own feet be some hero-type figure? From what I read, they can only be side characters. People who have to suck up to the real hero who will save everyone.
“I bet this guy is single for life. He looks like a bad man and smiles like one. And to top it off he trips over his own two feet. I bet he was only picked because he had good looks and only realized he was a lustboy after they signed a contract.” I snorted, only to once more hear a thumping sound behind me. “Why does he fall so much!?”
“I-I don’t know…” It seemed Elara also started having doubts about Lustboy.
“Ahem…” Lustboy seemed to have finished killing everything. He was now standing in front of us with those same eyes as before. “Miss… I am not what you think.”
“And what do I think you are?” I asked in confusion. I leaned over and whispered: “Did he hear me call him Lustboy? Should I knock him out now so we can run?”
“I can hear you!” Lustboy yelled out. I guess he has a skill that allows him to hear people whispering. Kind of creepy. “Don’t look at me like that! I can hear every word you are saying. If you are going to whisper, at least lower your voice.”
“Hmm? I did, though?” I asked in confusion. I looked at Elara, who shook her head and said: “You have been speaking quite loudly.”
“Ah…” I scratched my head. “Sorry, Lustboy, I didn’t mean to offend you, so if you do not mind, my friend and I will leave now.”
I decided making a hasty exit was best. He smashed those green things quite easily. My scales may be hard, but I don’t think I want to test them against another player at this time. Especially someone who was supposed to be a champion even if he was a bad guy with lustful thoughts.
“Why do I feel like you are thinking badly about me?” Lustboy asked. He looked quite exhausted. I wonder if killing the green things took too much out of him.
“Anyway, bye.” I gave a slight nod to Lustboy before grabbing Elara by her hand and pulling her along as I made my way back to the food court. I needed to order a new burger!
“Wait!” Lustboy called out to us, causing me to do nothing at all as I pushed forward. I had no time for Lustboy’s lustiness. I needed my burger. Food was very important. It was what allowed my stomach to stop making embarrassing sounds.
“Hey! Wait a second. What’s your name?” Lustboy was finally showing his true colors. He was trying to hit on Elara!
I stopped and turned around to star at the young man who was now standing behind us and snorted at him. “My friend doesn’t like you, so leave her alone. Now then. We have a burger to order!”
“Your friend?” Lustboy seemed confused. He shook his head and continued: “I was asking your name not your friends.”
“Mine?” I raised an eyebrow. Why would he ask my name? There was such a cute girl next to me, but he was asking my name? “My name is Griabagaletrashdumpster!”
And with that, I turned and pulled Elara with me once more. “Pfft!” I looked at Elara, who was giggling away. She seemed to find this all amusing. I decided it was best to warn her.
“You should never let any lustboys sweet talk you. They will take you away and sell you off to a whore house. Those places are not good at all. They make you… never mind you are still too young for that kind of info. Just make sure you stay away from them. If you see one like that guy there, run in the opposite direction!” I hoped this warning would stick with her for life!
“Umm… I am the same age as you, you know.” Elara seemed to not like me saying she was too young. Youth… it was something to cherish. Elara’s cheeks puffed out as she began complaining. “Why do I feel you are really not understanding what I am saying!?”

I think Alicia would get along with a demon gamer girl. And maybe Elara would have lots of stories to share with a pink haired Angel thing.
