Chapter 184: A Sweet Day Out

Chapter 184: A Sweet Day Out

And it was clear that Laxus was furious.

"A chaperone for a date? That’s not funny. Maybe it’s time you stopped clinging to your little brother so much."

"Where is the brother who isn’t worried that his younger brother is about to fall into the clutches of a bastard? I won’t allow anything involving you—marriage, dating, friendships, nothing!" Sylas declared, his voice sharp and intense.

"Eh... that’s a bit too much..." Rocco muttered, feeling a little stiff along with Laxus, who was equally taken aback.

It was a bit much, to be honest.

Perhaps it was a reaction to how overly affectionate Sylas had been during his childhood, but Sylas had ended up becoming a very intense... or rather, an extremely severe brother complex type.

This made things somewhat troublesome.

Whenever Laxus was involved, Sylas would carry an atmosphere like he was confronting an enemy, which made it hard to relax.

It felt like, if they weren’t careful, a full-blown conflict could start the moment they took their eyes off the situation.

"B-big brother, we have to get along! I just want to have fun and play..." Rocco said, trembling with fear, his eyes welling up with tears.

He really didn’t want to spend his precious playtime in such a tense atmosphere, shaking and feeling uncomfortable.

Looking down, he tried to gather his courage.

Sylas, seeing Rocco’s distress, quickly knelt down, his panic evident as he tried to apologize.

"S-sorry! It’s fine, really. We’re... not in a bad relationship, I promise."

"Yeah! We’re best friends, right?"

"...Well, I wouldn’t say not in a bad relationship." Sylas’s answer was somewhat vague, but Rocco was relieved to hear that, at least, they weren’t at odds.

He decided to ignore the unpleasant expression Sylas had on his face.

Alright, alright.

They were both friends after all.

With that, Rocco felt his spirits lift again.

Now he could look forward to the day with excitement!

"Now then, Rocco, we had plans to go out today... Is it really okay for me to decide where we’re going?" Laxus asked, his voice warm.

Rocco nodded his head eagerly, his eyes sparkling with excitement as he jumped up and down.

"Yep! I don’t really know much about the outside, so I’ll leave it all up to you!"

Excitement bubbled inside him as he swayed left and right, looking forward to the outing.

Laxus smiled warmly and took Rocco’s hand, matching his pace as they walked together.

Rocco turned around, and with a little wave of his hand, he tried to gesture for Sylas to join them.

Since he was holding his stuffed shark with one hand, he couldn’t hold Sylas’s hand, but he still wanted to walk alongside him.

However, above Rocco’s head, the usual bickering between Sylas and Laxus had already begun.

"Hey, move over. Let go of Rocco’s hand."

"First come, first served. Slowpoke, just follow us from behind."

"Die."

The sound of a gunshot rang out loudly. Paan!

Well, it looked like another peaceful day was underway as Rocco, in his cheerful mood, headed out with Laxus for their outing.

Excited to see where they were going, Rocco climbed into the carriage.

When they finally arrived, they had reached the heart of the royal capital.

This area is mainly known as a tourist district, was lined with famous cafés, boutiques, and a bustling shopping street.

Rocco had only ever visited once before, and that was to buy formal attire for a party.

In fact, he rarely ventured outside at all.

Given the high probability of being attacked the moment he stepped out, he usually had little desire to leave the safety of his home.

However, today was different!

He had the two protagonist with him, which meant there was absolutely no problem.

Those two were the main protagonist of this world—there was no way they would die so easily.

Even setting aside the story’s scenario, they were simply strong.

Which meant Rocco could enjoy the outing without a care in the world.

How wonderful!

"Rocco, Rocco, you love sweets, don’t you?"

"Hm? Yeah! I love them!"

As they walked along the lively street, Rocco gazed around in awe, his eyes sparkling.

Suddenly, Laxus, who had been holding his hand, spoke to him with a cheerful smile.

A bit surprised by the sudden question, Rocco tilted his head before nodding enthusiastically.

Of course, he loved sweets!

"Today, I thought we’d go to a café that’s been really popular lately. They have lots of cookies and cakes—your favorites."

Wha—?! A café?!

Cookies, cakes... such wonderful words filled Rocco’s ears, and his cheeks flushed with excitement.

Just imagining it made his stomach growl, and he could almost taste the sweetness.

Drool...

As Rocco’s eyes sparkled and he swayed with anticipation, both Laxus and even Sylas, who rarely showed expression, softened slightly.

Hmm... it feels like they’re treating me like a little kid...

"Heh, so cute. You can have anything you want, so don’t hold back, alright?"

"Anything? Cookies, chocolate, cake—I can eat as much as I want?!"

"Of course. Parfaits, crepes, ice cream—whatever you like."

Hawawaaah!

Rocco pressed his hands against his flushed cheeks, already lost in the fantasy of indulging in endless sweets.

Overcome with excitement, he let out a cheerful yay! and grabbed both of their hands, pulling them forward as he dashed ahead.

"Come on, both of you! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Let’s go already!"

Humming happily as he skipped along, he remained completely unaware of the fond smiles Laxus and Sylas exchanged as they watched him.

"Woooooow!!"

The café Laxus had reserved was, in a word, spectacular.

With its stylish exterior and carefully curated interior, it was a truly charming space.

Unable to contain his excitement, Rocco bounced up and down in place.

He had been looking forward to visiting a popular café, but he hadn’t expected it to be this incredible.

The atmosphere was just right—neither too open nor too cluttered—offering a perfect sense of comfort.

As he glanced around, he realized something strange.
