Chapter 24 - Magician's Tricks!

"Is this for me?" Momoko was excited, with a hint of shyness. She wondered if this handsome young man knew the meaning of a white rose. Giving a woman a white rose meant, "You are the only one in my heart."

"Of course!" Although he didn't know flower language, Raj had been around so many women for so long that sweet words came easily. "It's for the kind and beautiful Japanese girl I met in Spain!"

"Thank you!" Momoko carefully took the rose from Raj's hand, happily looking at Raj as she said, "I will treasure it!"

"Uh, actually, if you like, I can make you more roses!" Raj didn't know why the girl was so happy, and her eyes even held a hint of shyness when she looked at him.

"What an idiot..." Momoko whispered softly.

"What did you say?" Raj asked, pretending to be clueless and cute.

Shaking her head, Momoko said, "It's nothing! By the way, my name is Momoko, Ikeda Momoko. What's yours?"

"My name is Raj. You can also call me Raj!" Raj replied.

For some reason, after seeing Raj, Momoko, who loved to travel, suddenly felt a little tired. She wanted a home, preferably with a beloved him. That him was best if it was the young man in front of her. How embarrassing, Momoko thought. Why did she want to approach this boy, get close to him, and possess him so much...? Could this be love at first sight?

Raj stated that his psychological suggestion was fully responsible for this love-at-first-sight incident. Now that he recognized her as one of the heroines, there was no reason to let her go. Besides, although he liked Jackie Chan, he still had to pick up girls. At most, he would let Jackie Chan get less trouble when the time came.

Momoko watched Raj, who was performing magic not far from her stall, with a hint of infatuation. She watched as those ordinary paper napkins magically folded into various things in Raj's hands, sometimes turning into the Eiffel Tower, sometimes into a beautiful woman in a princess dress...

Using telekinesis to perform for money, only Raj would do that.

Unconsciously, Raj was surrounded by many people... But Raj was a little disappointed. Damn it, can't you just watch without giving money? I'm performing for money because I'm broke. How can you just watch without giving money...?

In the end, Raj, who was becoming increasingly frustrated, stopped his performance and sat down on the ground, muttering to himself, "Why isn't anyone giving money? Is my performance not good enough?"

"It's not that your performance isn't good enough, but you forgot to put something out to collect money. They thought you were just a street artist!" A voice suddenly came.

Raj looked up, and a silver-haired woman wearing a straw hat was looking at him.

Seeing Raj's gaze, the girl generously extended her hand and said, "Hello, great magician. My name is Elsa. You can call me Elsa."

"Hello, Elsa. My name is Raj. You can call me Raj." Raj also extended his hand and shook hands with the girl.

"You're great, Raj, but you just didn't find the right way." Elsa said, squatting down beside Raj, then took off her hat and placed it in front of Raj. "Now, can you start your performance?"

"Are you sure this will work?" Raj, who had never performed on the street before, was still a little concerned about his previous failure, which made him a little insecure.

"Of course, trust me, you can do it!" Elsa didn't hide her affection for Raj at all.

"Alright then!" Raj cheered up again and began his performance.

As Elsa said, more and more people gathered around. After seeing Raj's performance, they threw spare change into the hat in front of Raj. In a short while, Raj's hat was filled with Spanish pesetas.

Raj happily counted the pesetas in the hat, a whole four thousand pesetas... Looking at the money, Raj sighed. If he could have made money like this back then, he would have become rich long ago.

Of course, he had deliberately ignored the sky-high endorsement fees he had received when he was a model in the Super Girl world, because he didn't like that kind of life, which easily reminded him of the pain of being controlled by photographers...

"I'll treat you to a drink!" Raj quickly recovered, grabbed Elsa's hand, and said, "Wait a moment, I'll call a friend!"

"Okay!" Elsa nodded, smiling as she watched Raj, who was as happy as a child, run to the stall next door and drag Momoko over.

"Okay, everyone's here, let's go!" Raj said, taking the package Momoko was carrying on her back, and then took the lead, leading the two girls forward.

"Hello, my name is Elsa! I'm a friend Raj just met!" Seeing the Asian girl next to Raj, Elsa's heart was filled with vigilance. Could this girl be Raj's girlfriend?

"Hello, my name is Momoko! I'm also Raj's friend." Momoko also nodded slightly. She was full of vigilance towards the Spanish girl in front of her. She almost wanted to rush forward and disrupt the two of them when Elsa started talking to Raj. But there were two people in black suits who looked suspicious and had been squatting in front of her stall, so she couldn't go.

Now, Momoko only had one belief in her heart: Raj-kun is mine, and I won't give him to anyone!

And Elsa also felt the hostility coming from Momoko's eyes, but for her, giving up easily was never her style, let alone this was the first time she had been moved by a boy.

Raj, who was walking in front, didn't notice the subtle struggle between the two girls at all. In fact, even if he knew, Raj wouldn't care. They would learn to be modest on their own in the future... Hehe.

In the end, being new to the area, Raj had to rely on Elsa to take him to a bar that looked quite charming. There was no other way; Raj couldn't speak Spanish. Fortunately, communication between the three wasn't a problem, as they could all speak English, which made things much easier.

However, this bar didn't have any food, so Elsa negotiated with the owner and went outside to buy some Iberian ham and bread for the three of them as dinner.

At the table, Raj diligently worked on the Iberian ham in front of him. To him, nothing was more important than eating. However, the two women somehow started arguing and began challenging each other to drink, glass after glass.

By the time Raj finished eating, he realized that both women were almost completely drunk…

To be honest, Elsa hadn't been having a good time these days. She kept getting harassing phone calls from strange people, and, annoyed, she wanted to go out and relax. When she arrived at the Spanish Square, she saw a crowd of people gathered there.

Curiosity is human nature, especially for a woman. Elsa squeezed into the crowd and saw a handsome Asian boy standing in the middle, performing astonishing and magical tricks. The moment she saw Raj, she felt as if she had been struck by Cupid's arrow.

She didn't know why she would be so fond of a boy she had just met, but the impulse to understand him and get close to him was so urgent.

[Mind hint: I'll take the blame for this, don't fight me for it!]

When she saw the young man looking dejected because he hadn't earned any money from his performance, she didn't hesitate to step forward and talk to him, telling him the rules of street performances here. Eventually, the two successfully got to know each other, and she was filled with joy.

When the fulfilled young man offered to buy her a drink, she was so happy she almost jumped up. However, when the young man also called over a girl with the same hair color as him, she felt uneasy. She was afraid that the girl was the boy's other half.

Pretending to be casual, Elsa figured out the relationship between the two. At most, she had met the boy an hour earlier than her, but she didn't relax.

As a woman, she could easily see that the girl, like herself, also liked Raj. During their conversation over dinner, they unknowingly became increasingly fiery, and no one knows who finally proposed a bet that seemed quite absurd later: whoever gets drunk first will withdraw from this war of love and completely give up on Raj…

You drink a glass, then look at me provocatively, and then I drink a glass unhappily and look back at you… The two of them started drinking the special Spanish fruit wine, glass after glass.

By the time Raj noticed, the two had drunk no less than twenty small glasses and were basically in a daze. Helpless, Raj had to pay the bill and wanted to take the two girls away, but he found that he didn't have enough money. Embarrassed, Raj had to take out the change from the two women's small purses, and in the end, it was just enough to pay for the wine.

With one in each arm, Raj picked up the two women and walked out. He hailed a taxi and asked Elsa, who was almost out of it, for her address and told it to the driver.

When they arrived, Raj, who really didn't have any Spanish pesetas, could only use the dollars in his pocket. Fortunately, the driver had also picked up many tourists from the United States and was very happy to be paid in dollars.

He took the key from Elsa's handbag and tried it one by one for a long time before finally opening the door. Elsa residence was a somewhat old, detached two-story villa…

He carried the two women upstairs and casually threw them both on the bed.

Raj reached out and wanted to take off the two women's clothes, but then he stopped. In his perception, there were two clumsy thieves lying on the tree outside. These were the treasures that ran through the whole play, so he couldn't kill them. He relied on them to add fun to himself, but he didn't have the habit of letting people peep when he was doing serious business.

With a thought, a tree branch as thick as an arm floated silently behind the two thieves. With a bang, the two clumsy thieves were knocked unconscious by the stick as Raj wished, and then Raj used telekinesis to throw them into the bedroom of a family fifty meters away.

Momoko was awakened by the sunlight shining on her face. When she woke up, she felt uncomfortable all over. Headache, dry mouth, and a sore throat were normal reactions after a hangover, but the bursts of tearing pain coming from below told her that she had lost her first time, which she had always cherished, last night…

This was simply like a bolt from the blue, making Momoko almost scream. Enduring the pain in her heart, Momoko looked at where she was. This was a somewhat old bedroom, and she was lying naked on the large bed in the center of the bedroom. The quilt next to her was extremely messy, indicating that someone should have slept next to her last night…

Enduring the pain coming from her lower body, Momoko stood up. Suddenly, a sound that made people blush and ears burn came from the bathroom next door…

Enduring the anger in her heart, Momoko picked up a wooden stick randomly placed on the ground and tiptoed towards the direction of the sound.

She suddenly opened the unlocked bathroom door and raised the wooden stick to smash it down. At this moment, the scene in front of her stunned her.

She saw Raj, whom she admired, standing behind that Elsa, constantly moving his waist. Elsa, who had been drinking with her yesterday, had already started shaking her head desperately, talking nonsense…
