kozvme | Event Story – SNOW TRICK VACATION! ch.5

Jacqueline: Ah, Victor-chama! Do you want to play with Alexander-chama, too?

Victor: Oh my, are you playing with a small animal today, Miss bubbly robot?

Jacqueline: That's right! ♪ Alexander-chama is very energetic and a good boy!

Nova: It seems that Oscar-kun left him to her~

Victor: Is that right? I thought you were experimenting with it.

Jacqueline: Ufufu. Alexander-chama doesn't raise his quills at all, he is such a good boy!
... Ohh? Alexander-chama has become pointy and sharp all of a sudden...

Nova: You're right. It looks like he's hissing?

Victor: Mayhap I am the reason. Animals find me unamiable.
It seems I have interrupted you. It was nothing particularly urgent, so I shall come back another time.

Jacqueline: Victor-chama!

Victor: Yes, what is it?

Jacqueline: Giving up is a no-no! He's just scared. I'm sure you'll be able to become good friends!

Victor: No, uhm, I really do notー

Jacqueline: Oh, I know! You should put him on your shoulder and tell him there's nothing to be afraid of!
That's what they did in the movie I watched with papa and Marion-chama yesterday. It looked slightly painful, but they became very good friends.

Nova: Right, there was a scene like that! Why don't you give it a try, Vic? ♪

Victor: ...... I think I will passー

Oscar: I hope Alexander isn't causing trouble for anyone.

Will: Ahahah. It'll be fine. After all, Alexander-kun is a good boy.

Akira: Why did you leave him to Jacqueline...?

Oscar: I have to thank her once we go back... Maybe I'll buy her a souvenir.

Brad: ... Considering the season, wouldn't a Christmas present be more suitable?

Oscar: !! Why didn't I think of that? You're a genius, Brad-sama.

Will: A Christmas present, huh... I'll have to buy some for my sisters, too.

Brad: That aside, is everything ready for the Christmas League, Oscar?

Oscar: Yes, we just have to wait for the actual day to come. Both Akira and Will did their best.

Akira: What did ya expect? I'm a genius, after all.

Oscar: I have also uploaded your and Brad-sama's videos enjoying winter activities on MillionTube.
We have already exceeded one million views; it seems we're doing quite a good PR job.

Brad: Is that so? I'm happy I can contribute.

Akira: Hehehe... I can see it becoming a snowboarding commercial. ♪

Will: He gets carried away so quickly...

Akira: Allllright! At this rate, it's gonna be Voltage Max on the day of the Christmas League, too!

Will: Speaking of... This branch-off edition of LOM is making me a little bit nervous.
I'm used to the stadium, so it might be difficult to grasp this sense of distance...
Fighting drones while skiing and snowboarding is also an uphill struggle...

Oscar: Look on the bright side, Will. Snowy mountains are freezing cold, but we don't get to have a mock battle at a location like this every day.
Try thinking of this as an unique opportunity, instead, not as a place you're not used to or a battle with unfamiliar means.
Won't you be able to get rid of your anxiety if you do that? Although it's still stone cold.

Will: An unique opportunity... I see, if I manage to overcome this, I might be able to grow a bit more.
Thank you very much, Oscar-san.

Oscar: ... There's no need to thank me. To an extent, it's something I could also tell myself.
I never would have thought I'd fight on a snowy mountain... It's a good chance to turn my weakness into strength...

Brad: ......
