Duh?

XC8 Asteroid Belt, Gare Galaxy.

The once populated asteroid belt with various infamous researchers and scientists now laid in ruin as a galactic war took place in this location.

The XC8 Asteroid belt also happened to be the main base of the famous Four Divine Beasts Group that took part in various business from transporting packages through various galaxies to providing security services to the influential people in the vast galaxy.

But this flourishing location filled with various inventions and potential innovations now became desolate as corpses of various structures, sizes and shapes laid on the rocks, lifeless.

On the centre most asteroid, a messy-haired youth with handsome features and slim build stood while looking at the spatial wasteland with apathetic eyes and a mocking smile.

A long black spear held by his hand as the crimson blade of the spear begged for the blood of his master's enemies.

Behind the youth, surrounding the asteroids was a fleet of spatial battleships that kept on destroying the surrounding regions.

Making the spear vanish, the man finally rubbed the back of his head.

"This should calm them... for a while."

"Well, whatever! This time's galactic war won't be mine to participate in. I can just keep some old perverts away from my dear daughters."

Taking out a communicator from his black pants, the youth contacted his special someone.

"Hmm? Hello? Yeah, it's me. I know, I know. Huh? You won't allow me until I give them my blessings?! But I'm..."

The other side of the communicator cut him short and he sighed in defeat.

"Yes, yes! I'll deal with that, too."

Coaxing the person on the other side, the youth cut off the connection and looked up at one of the Largest Battleship with annoyance.

Sending off a signal, he was quickly brought into the spaceship and the fleet departed to a new location very quickly.

Meanwhile, the whole galaxy was finally aware of the consequences of annoying this particular youth as many half-dead aliens finally calmed down and stopped most of their schemes.

But this attack only served the purpose of fuelling the desires of the other youths in the vast galaxy as they placed their sight on a special planet— C87, Milky Way Galaxy.

"This feels strange."

Mikan and Tatsumaki sat together with matching clothes. After all, Tatsumaki has just been using Mikan's clothes in the first place.

"I know right?"

They both huddled together in a one-seater couch as they saw Rito training intensely on the backyard while Lala simply looked at Rito with a sad expression.

Meanwhile, Peke, who was currently being hugged by Mikan spoke out.

"This morning something strange happened between Lala-sama and Rito. The tense situation maybe regarding that incident."

"Duh! Of course, it is because of that."

Tatsumaki had already returned to her true self when there was no four-limbed winged creature to be found.

Mikan frowned but there was even more pressing situation.

"When are you going to wear your own clothes?"

She had a small frown on her cute face while she looked at Tatsumaki sitting right next to her.

Hearing the unexpected... well, quite the expected question, Tatsumaki frowned as well.

"I will get them from my house at the weekend."

As they both started to temporarily divide the clothes, Rito had difficulty breathing.

With the gravity bands, he was pushing himself to the limits to simply keep up with his normal movements while some of the acrobatic movements of Muay Thai almost made him fall on his face.

While he trained, he also tackled with the feeling of sadness coming from Lala that simply sat on the couch with a dazed expression.

Though, the guilt of making such a wonderful girl sad pressurised his chest, he still kept a calm expression.

After completing his daily practice, he picked up the hand towel placed on the wooden platform of the backyard and wiped the sweat off of his face.

The moment he entered the living room, he could easily feel a strange tension pressing on everyone.

'This is?'

Even Rito was slightly stunned.

Only now did he find out that in just three days, Lala had become an inseparable part of this house and her negative emotion easily infected the surroundings, making others feel heavy.

After all, Mikan and Tatsumaki were sitting together on a single couch and looked especially cute together, this wonderful scene was easily suppressed by Lala's sadness.

Using one hand to rub his head with the towel, Rito sat right next to Lala and opened a bottle of water and quenched his thirst.

"You alright?"

Since he had to start the conversation and clear out the bad air between them, he had to be the one to start the talk. After all, this morning's incident was his fault.

Meanwhile, when Mikan and Tatsumaki heard Rito's words, they rolled their eyes up almost at the same time and had a single thought in their mind.

'Duh? Can't you see she isn't alright?'

Even Peke's spiral eyes rotated and she refused to comment on the situation.
