Start By Becoming A Mangaka

"Still, it's been a while, I'm glad that you look healthy, well, I was about to get some food, so why don't we get some together?" Tsugumi said.

"DON'T BE SO RELAXED WITH ME?!" Paula was annoyed and replied naturally, "ARE WE RELATED?!" She sighed and looked quite tired, "I didn't come here to be cozy, I came here to settle things with you...!"

"Ever since you have dropped me from the top, you have been my goal, but now I'm disappointed..." Paula looked at her and said, "I have been watching you for a couple of days now, your loose expression, your loose aura! You spend everyday corrupted by this carelessness, you seem like a normal, run of the mill girl."

Tsugumi suddenly remembered that she had been watched by someone a few days ago, 'So that was Paula.' She looked at her and said, "Well, I'm here to protect milady."

"Is that really it?" Paula looked at her with a suspicious expression and said, "You're not as sharp as you once were! You're a tiger without its fangs! What happened?! Did you fail somewhere?! Or are you afraid of the battlefield now?! Oh, perhaps, are you addicted to the peaceful life now that you have a boyfriend? Maybe this guy...." She looked at him with a curious expression.

"N - no, we're not dating...." Tsugumi was embarrassed when she answered this question.

"Really? You're not dating?!" Paula looked at him with a surprised expression.

Yuuki nodded, "We're not dating right now."

"Right now...." Paula looked at her with a curious expression.

"Anyway, enough of that! What are you here?" Tsugumi tried to change the conversation since her face was blushing and hot right now.

Her expression became annoyed when Tsugumi asked this question, "I don't want to lose to you, I want to surpass you!" Her expression changed into spirited when she said this to her.

"...Why are you so keen on singling me out? There are plenty of people that are better than me that you should be aiming for right?" Tsugumi asked.

Paula became angry, "Don't tell me that you have forgotten?"

"!!!!" Tsugumi was startled looking at her expression.

Yuuki decided not to join their conversation since he felt that both of them had a deep relationship together. He felt that it was similar to a younger generation that respected an older one but he wasn't sure why this girl was angry at Tsugumi and decided to listen to her story more before he talked in their discussion.

Paula gritted her teeth, saying, "I will never forget when we first teamed up." She started to tell them about their first meeting. She told them Tsugumi, who met her for the first time, asking her a question, 'Are you a boy? You don't have any b.o.o.b.s.' She had never forgotten about that humiliation and tried to be better than her in any mission but she failed every time since Tsugumi was better than her in every mission that they had taken together.

"Huwaaa! I don't want to be told that by you! You're the one that looks like a boy!" Paula started her outbursts while crying.

"Tsugumi...." Yuuki looked at her speechless expression.

Tsugumi only looked away while scratching her cheek uncomfortably.

"Anyway! I made up my mind that I can't let you get away with this! One day I'll beat you so bad...." Paula said while pointing her finger but it touched Tsugumi's b.r.e.a.s.t and felt that she had lost again.

"Uwaaa!!" Paula started to cry when she compared her b.r.e.a.s.ts with her.

Yuuki and Tsugumi only looked at her with a tired expression.

"Don't think you've won," Paula said, full of tears and snots on her face.

"She is wailing?!" Tsugumi was startled.

"In that case, I'm going to use force," Paula stood up and opened her cloak and showed them her weapons collection, "Prepare yourself, Black Tiger! Now draw!" She hoped for her to have a duel with only Tsugumi served her food.

"Just wait, you haven't had food yet, right? Eat a little," Tsugumi said with a gentle smile.

Yuuki looked at her with interest since this would be his first time to see her wearing an apron.

"W - what?!" Tsugumi noticed his gaze.

"Nothing, you look very cute in that apron," Yuuki praised her.

"D - don't say something stupid, let me prepare you food too," Tsugumi said with a red face.

"Thank you," Yuuki smiled.

Tsugumi took another portion of meat and potato stew for him, "Here."

Yuuki nodded and started to eat it. His eyes lit up when he tasted this food, "Hmm, this is good, I'm sure you will be a good wife."

"W - wha?! Who would ever become your wife?" Tsugumi blushed while hitting him.

"Ho? You want me to marry you?" Yuuki smiled.

"I h - have never said that!"

Paula, who saw them flirting with each other, couldn't bear it anymore. She wanted to snap but suddenly she got an idea, "Hey, black tiger."

"Hmm?" Tsugumi looked at her.

"How about we have a match? If I lose, I'll grow up and give up, however, if I win you'll go back to America and you'll grow your fangs back there," Paula said.

Yuuki felt that this match was interesting and he didn't really worry that much since he felt that Tsugumi had 100% chance of winning.

"I see, okay, I won't be easy on you if it's a match! What kind of match will it be then? Fight training? Hand to hand? Arm wrestling? There's no challenge where you've beaten me before," Tsugumi said confidently.

Paula nodded and said, "The time limit is one hour, the field is this entire town to win you must..." She walked toward him and pointed his lips, "Be the first to steal a kiss from him."

"Eeeeehhhhh!!!!" Tsugumi was startled.

"Hmm? What about my opinion?" Yuuki asked but both of them ignored him.
