A Date?

While Seichi was curious about the answer, Hina started to feel irritated by the many question this guy had. After all, she was about to praise him and create a romantic scene and he just had to ruin it with stupid question "Guys..."

...

"Yes..." Hina began, visibly irritated "You can make them invisible with the same principle, but that will them much much weaker since you deprive them of Elemental Genetic Cells, which gives them their power and properties. For example, that is the reason why my clones were so weak"

"But, you put some Elemental Genetic Energy even in your clones by the way they burned when I hit them, right?" Seichi curiosly asked, his hunger for knowledge acting once again.

"Well, yes, but that's because I don't have total control of my Genetic Energy yet, so I wasn't able to supress all of my Elemental Genetic Cells, some escaping and mixing with my Genetic Energy, giving it their properties, but that gives a little bit of problems because as you could see, my clones' colors were a little bit mixed with the orange color of the Ardor cells, so the clones were clearly different from me" Hina carefully explained, not leaving any detail out.

"Well, It's a shame that I wasn't able to notice that difference or I wouldn't have wasted so many energies to go after your clones earlier..." Seichi said, a sigh escaping from his mouth.

"You couldn't see that difference? Why? It was so clear!" Hina said, curiosity now hitting her.

"Well, that's because my eyesight is very very bad, it got better lately, but it's still quite bad" Seichi revealed to her, mentioning the fact that it got a bit better, but not the reason as he couldn't just say to her that he acquired the Uniqueness Enhanced Body, that enhances all of his body, inculding his eyes, out of nothing.

"Then why don't you go under an eye operation or simly wear glasses?" Hina said, very curious: she wanted to know anything about Seichi.

"Both of them are too expensive for me" Seichi said, a sad tone suddendly covering his perfect voice "Well, I mean, i had glasses, that I bought after saving for five years straight, one year ago, but they got destroyed while I suffered one of my daily bullyings"

"Ah..." Hina said, not adding anything else as she didn't know what to say, not having experienced anything like this since the day she was born.

Nobody was talking after Seichi brought this sad subject up, so Hina decided to shatter the awkardness with a question "Seichi, can I ask you something?"

"How could I say no when you've told me so many tricks of yours" Seichi answered, his harmonious voice returning to its usual tone thanks to Hina's sudden change of subject.

"D-do you perhaps w-want to go buy a pair of g-glasses with me?" Hina struggled to ask, stattering because of how embarassed she was, which was visible by the huge blush that was covering her cheeks, to ask him something like this.

"Oh, are you asking me to go out with you right now?" Seichi said, teasing Hina a little, even though he was so happy that she asked him out.

"No! I just want to help you choose a new pair of glasses!" Hina yelled, her skin red like a tomato as her embarassment skyrocketed off the charts.

"Ok, ok, Hina, it's not a date..." Seichi said with a smile, which rapidly disappeared when the handsome lad opened his mouth again "But, unfortunately, I'll have to refuse"

"Why?!!" Hina now yelled even more strongly than before as she couldn't accept the fact that she finally took the courage to ask him something like this, just to be refused!

"Do you hate me or something?!"

"No, absolutely not, it's just that..." Seichi began, while scratching his head "I don't think your father will let us go as he barely accepted me inside his house and..."

"And?" Hina said, making pressure on the white haired guy a lot as she absolutely wanted to know the answer of his refusal.

"And I don't have the money for a new pair of glasses, so..."

"Don't worry! I'll buy them for you!" Hina said, her eyes shining brightly.

"No, I can't let you pay fo-" Seichi tried to refuse her offer, but his words were cut by a orange haired girl who was too excited to control her manners in that moment "Shut up, Seichi! I'll buy them for you! End of the story!"

"Wow..." Seichi was impressed: never did he think that the usually gentle and shy Hina could behave as rudely as this, but, for some reason, he wasn't hating this at all.

"And what about your father, then?" Seichi rapidly asked, after snapping out of the amazement caused by Hina's behaviour, as he didn't want the orange haired girl to interrupt him once again.

"I'll go to convince him right now, you just need to shut up and change yourself to go!" Hina said, immediately leaving the gym to immediately go convincing her father.

"What a troublesome girl..." Seichi thought as ge watched her beautiful back as she left.

...

Inside the estate, in the living room.

A man with blazing red hair was calmly watching the TV, while sitting on a luxurious sofa, when the sliding door of the living door was, suddendly, smashed open, the figure of his daughter appearing.

"Father, I have something to ask you?" the orange haired girl said to the father, who looked irritated: he was watching his favourite TV show and just as he began to watch its second season, his spoiled daughter had to interrupt him.

"What is it, Hina?" The Flame Emperor said with a irritated tone. He wanted to conclude this conversation as quickly as possible, so he could to continue watching his favourite show.

"Well, I... wanted to ask you if i could..." Hina was hesitating to ask his father about going out with Seichi as she knew that she was going to get a straight no.

"Whatever it is, yes" The Flame Emperor said, not wanting to waste more time "Now, go, and let me watch the TV in peace"

"Thanks, father" Hina said, immediately rushing to hug his father and kiss him on the cheek. She knew that if he had heard she was going out with Seichi, he would have said no, but did that matter when she already got his approval? No.
