District Story - Different Playstyles
Shizuru: How many are there? I hope it’s not too crowded.
Lance: It's still daytime. Most students are probably at school, so it should be fine.
Shizuru: True. The only people who'd really wanna get there early are probably extreme gamers or just really bored.
Lance: That being said, it’s a new release of a popular arcade game. We don’t have time to waste.
Shizuru: Hahaha, you really like it too, huh? Well then, let’s hurry there!
Lance: There!
Rui: ……
Shizuru: Extreme boredom and gaming addiction, huh? Our leader really lives up to that description.
Rui: …You’re finally here.
Lance: I thought you weren’t here yet, but it turns out you’re here early.
Shizuru: Getting Rui to go out early in the morning, huh? That’s impressive. It’s a huge step even.
Rui: Stop being so noisy.
More importantly, which one of you is going to get knocked out by me first?
Lance: Maybe I’ll watch for now
Rui: Hah, you’re a boring guy.
Lance: Gathering information and going in prepared is my style. I want to be fully ready for a challenge.
Shizuru: So, does that mean you’re planning to do it at my expense...?
Lance: Of course not. I believe Shizuru can beat the demon lord.
Rui: Hurry up.
Shizuru: Alright, alright. Please go easy on me.
—YOU WIN!
Rui: Weakling.
Shizuru: ...You’re really ruthless! Do you even know what ‘go easy’ means?
Lance: Your sacrifice will not be in vain, Shizuru. I’ve gotten the hang of it.
Shizuru: Damn it… Avenge me, Lance!
Lance: Yeah. I’m going to win, Leader.
Rui: Keep talking.
—YOU WIN!
Hey, what’s wrong? Didn’t you come here to win?
Lance: Argh, I was so close...!
Rui: It’s either close or not. A loss is a loss. Just admit you’re weak and playing so badly.
Shizuru: Now now Rui-chan, you’re just way too aggressive when playing.
Don’t be too down, Lance. Rui’s just good at games in general, and it’s rare to beat him on your first try.
Lance: ….Yeah, I didn’t gather enough information this time. But next time, it’ll be different.
Rui: We’ll see about that.
Lance: I’ll make sure the next game won’t be boring. You wanna do a rematch?
Rui: Rematch? Sure. But do it before I get bored.
Lance: Of course.
Shizuru: …Even though he’s the youngest, Lance can handle being taunted so calmly. He’s so mature.
