A New Character [Honkai Impact 3 X OC]

Eden's Special Chapter - Secret Place

Eden: "..."

I stayed silent at his question.

???: "..Right?"

But it seemed like my silent response had successfully made him become aware of something.

Eden: "Oh? How are you sure?"

I joked with him with that silly question.

???: "Eh? Am I really that old? Eh? Eden? Hey? Why are you ignoring me?"

I chuckled as his voice got closer and strangely worried. Perhaps the concept of getting older had actually made him worried.

Eden: "I am not ignoring you, I was just busy thinking."

???: "Hm... I doubt that."

Another chuckle left my mouth as his steps were slowly getting closer.

Finally, he stopped right beside me.

Eden: "Care for a drink?"

He shook his head and sat down.

???: "You know that I'm not a drinker like you."

Eden: "Well, I don't drink much, anyway."

???: "...Are you delusional?"

With blank eyes, he gave me a questioning gaze.

As a result, I chuckled again.

Eden: "Here."

I offered him a glass of clear water.

???: "Thanks."

Eden: "Hm."

With no reason to decline, he accepted it.

The sound of him drinking the glass reached my ear as I slowly turned my eyes to my right.

There was him.

With casual clothes.

Eden: "..."

???: "...?"

As I slowly stared at him, he noticed me staring and stopped drinking before staring at me as well.

We both stared at each other for a while.

Suddenly, a strong wind came.

It made my hair dance in the air as I tried to block some of it from entering my view.

???: "Quite windy today, huh."

Eden: "Indeed."

Such a simple conversation occurred between us.

After that, there was no more.

We didn't say a single word.

5 minutes passed, and still nothing.

10 minutes passed, the same as before.

30 minutes passed.

Eden: "█ █ █"

█ █ █: "Yeah?"

I finally called him.

Eden: "How did you find out?"

█ █ █: "..."

At my question, he stayed silent.

█ █ █: "It's a secret."

He answered with a cheeky smile.

Eden: "...Is that so."

█ █ █: "Hm? You won't ask any further?"
