Chapter 339: Tokyo Majin Festival
Chapter 339: Tokyo Majin Festival
Mark knew that Arit was working hard for something important, but this was the last thing he expected. These tickets must have cost thousands of dollars.
"Y-You don't want to go?"
Arit stared up at him expectantly, and Mark didn't even know how to react at first. Mark knew that he could get these tickets easily. In fact, he could buy out the entire festival if he really wanted to since he was just that rich, but the mere fact that Arit worked hard every day just to get him this instead of simply using his money for it made it a thousand times more precious to him.
Mark gently wrapped Arit in a hug and smiled as he felt her stiffen in his arms.
"Of course I like it. Thank you."
Arit blushed and wrapped her hand around Mark's back as she buried her face into his chest. It was very hard for her to work all those part-time jobs because she had never done them before. But for Arit, it was more than worth it for this one moment.
Mark finally disconnected from Arit while looking down at the ticket and reading the dates.
"The festival is on Sunday, so if we go on the trip today, we should be back by Monday night. It's perfect."
Mark was a little hesitant to just pack up and leave for the festival, but he decided that he would go for it. There haven't been any anima attacks in the past two days, and it was unlikely that anything serious would happen in just two days.
Arit was surprised that Mark wanted to leave right now. She was thinking of leaving tomorrow and getting back by Tuesday. The plane tickets that she bought were for Saturday.
Mark just grinned as he asked her if she couldn't get a refund for the plane tickets.
"Well, I can…"
"Good, get the refund. I have a better way of getting there."

"Tina, Turner, what are you two doing here?"
Luna opened the door of Turner and Tina's office as she saw the door was unlocked. She glanced between the two of them curiously while wondering why they weren't in class. Turner scratched the back of his head while looking through some documents on the table, and Tina waved at Luna while lazing about on the couch.
"Luna, we're playing hooky!"
"Tina, don't just say that!"
Turner was exasperated by his sister, and he sighed before turning to Luna calmly and telling her that they were trying to catalog everything they found out this week. Since it was Friday, they weren't doing much in class, so it was fine. Luna raised a disbelieving brow at Turner, but she decided to let it go since she knew that neither of them needed to be in school anyway.
"Have either of you seen Mark Vantias today? I didn't notice him coming to school."
Turner shook his head.
"Nope, I don't think he and Arit came to school today. I heard someone from class saying something about a birthday."
"Birthday?"
Luna was stunned that she was just hearing about this. Whose birthday!? Hold on! Don't tell me it's Mark's birthday! Why didn't he say anything to me?
Luna tried to remain as calm as possible as she asked if it was Mark's birthday and Tina immediately raised her hand with a wide grin!
"Yeah, it is! I sent him a message this morning to surprise him and he blocked me! I'm gonna go find him once school ends! I know where he lives!"
Turner sighed because he knew that he would be dragged along for this mission, but Luna was not having any of it. She immediately shot them down.
"If Mark doesn't want to be disturbed today, then you are going to respect his decision. I don't want to hear that you went to his place, do you understand?"
"Aww~! But that bimbo is going to have him all to herself!"
Luna felt a stab in her heart as she was reminded of Arit. Luna knew that Tina was right about Arit getting Mark all to herself during this period, but Luna refused to be the sort of person to impose on Mark on a day like today. Luna gave Tina a hard stare and Tina finally bowed down as she realized that Luna was not kidding around.
Luna sighed as she brought out something from her pocket and threw it on the table.
"Some of my guild members are going to a festival later in city F, and since it is the weekend, I decided to bring you two along if you want to come."
"Oh, yeah, it's the Tokyo Majin Festival, right!? I've been hearing about it from the guys at the Superhuman Alliance!"
Tina reached over and grabbed one of the tickets on the table, but Turner only gave the ticket a side glance before turning away as he continued writing something in his book. He didn't really feel like going, but he knew that he didn't have a choice either since Tina sounded interested. Luna waved to them as she left.
She initially intended to give those tickets to Mark, but since he was not around, she decided that she would just use them to get closer to her subordinates.
"If you want to come, then head to the airport by eight tomorrow. The festival and plane tickets are already paid for, so you only need to show up."
Tina grinned.
"Thanks, Water Queen!"
Luna shook her head tiredly at Tina and headed out the door.
"Oof!"
Only for her to run into a student who was passing by. It was NPC Kent from Mark's class and he fell to the ground and dropped some books as Luna's strength threw him off his feet effortlessly.
NPC Kent quickly knelt down to start gathering the books and Luna only glanced at him for a moment before she bent to pick up a book that was close to her feet. She handed it to him as he stood up.
"You should be more careful. Sorry about that."
NPC Kent stood mesmerized as he stared at Luna. He tried to speak, but his words failed him at that moment, so he just gave a single, stiff nod in response. When Luna smiled at him, his entire face suddenly grew red as he lowered the books to hide something that was growing in his pants. NPC Kent knew who Luna was. Enjoy more content from M-V-L
Everyone in America knew who Luna was, and they all knew she was one of the most beautiful women in the world.
NPC Kent had seen many pictures of her before but none of them compared to seeing her in the flesh. This was unreal! How can anyone be this beautiful!?
"You're from Mark's class, aren't you? What is your name?"
"…uhm. K-K-K-Kent. I mean Kevin! My name is Kevin!"
Luna smiled at his nervousness. "I'll remember the name. Take care."
NPC Kent gave another stiff nod as he watched Luna leave and he immediately turned and headed towards the boys' toilet! He needed to take care of something quickly.
