Chapter 2: Natsuki/Natsumi Subaru?
She had been talking to the stange boy who looked like herself for half an hour by now, while walking around the capital city of Lugunica.
It appeared as if her male counterpart was a slightly perverted shut-in NEET, although she saw throuh his facade right away.
After all, she was the same. Well, she wasn't a perverted shut-in NEET, but she was just as awkward as him, along with also being an otaku.
Due to this, she didn't consider herself very hot, but objectively, the boys in her class begged to differ, not to mention that Natsuki Subaru had called her hot which is the reason she thinks of him as a pervert.
However, she did still go to school before being sent here, which is more than her male counterpart did if his words were anything to go by.
She felt as though she could trust him though, due to a strange link that seemed to connect their very souls from the moment they arrived in this new country named Lugunca, as it was called by a slightly agressive "appa" salesman.
This link told her that he wasn't lying, which meant he really was a pervert who found her hot.
She didn't know what their relationship was supposed to be, or how closely related they were on a genetic level, but she thought that they would have to figure out their relationship over time, which she presumed they would have plenty of now that their fates seemed to be connected.
At least they could communicate with the locals, even if they couldn't read the written language, which nearly became a issue when Natsuki almost walked into the women's bathroom.
Luckily though, the fact that he was so loud when talking to her meant that the locals stopped him before he could commit this faux pas. She knew it was unfair, but her impression of him as a pervert only grew after this incident.
After a while, they walked into a secluded alley where they could talk without anyone overhearing, and there was one pressing matter that they needed to resolve.
"So, how do we refer to each other? We can't just both call ourself Subaru, it would confuse the locals." Natsumi Subaru asked him.
Natsuki had put a little bit of thought into the matter already, so he awnsered right away.
"How about we keep our current names, but use Subaru as a surname and Natsumi or Natsuki as our given names. It would clear up some confusion at least."
Natsuki seemed to be going down the family route, although it could also mean they were a married couple...
Gah! It was hard being connected emotionally to a stranger of the opposite sex, even if they looked a lot like you. Especially since they had never met before in their 17 year old lives.
Their parents even shared the same names, with only a tiny diffrence in their respective surnames.
This would have to be postponed until they managed solve the issue of having a place to live.
"Okay, we'll do that for now, but only if I can be the onee-san." Natsumi felt as if she was more mature than Natsuki, so should couldn't help herself. She had always wanted a little brother.
"Fine, exalted onee-sama" was the rather unsatisfactory rosponse Natsuki gave her.
She pouted, but there wasn't much she could do about his attitude, so she didn't retort.
With that out of the way, they walked out of the alley, only to find three thugs trying to rob them.
Natsuki probably wanted to look cool in front of his exalted onee-sama, so he tried to fight back like an idiot, which actually worked until one of them decided to pull out their knives.
At least he wasn't a complete idiot, since he decided to beg for mercy.
He wasn't stabbed, but they stomped him pretty hard, so she knew she had to intervene.
"Please, anyone, help us!" Natsumi shouted to nobody in paricular.
An unhelpful brat with blonde hair and red eyes ran by without offering anything but a "stay strong".
Then came... a handsome knight with flaming red hair.
Natsumi noticed said handsomeness, but he wasn't her type, she liked silver hair, which she knew was unrealistic on someone young enough for her, but she couldn't help how she felt, that still didn't help how her with how to think about Natsuki.
"I'll let you go if you stop this at once" mister handsome man told the thugs.
"No way, it's the Sword saint, Reinhard" was the response of the now panicked thugs who were running away as fast as they could.
Reinhard introduced himself to the two after checking up on Natsuki, but before they could respond, another person came to this oddly crowded secluded alleyway.
They had beutiful silver hair, which peeved Natsumi quite a bit given how said person was a girl, instead of a handsome boy.
She looked over at her male counterpart, only to see him look at the newcomer in awe.
Natsumi gave him a knowing look at his prefrence in women, since her taste in men was identical.
The newcomer ran towards them without noticing Reinhard, and said "Please give me back my insignia...".
Thus, the historical encounter between four of the most influential people began.
