"Uh... Little Hei wants a cola, Sister Yoshino wants oolong tea, MASTER wants coffee..."
As she walked, Illya carefully counted on her fingers, recalling the other people's beverage choices. Meanwhile, Kurumi walked beside her, looking around the surroundings.
"I remember there was a vending machine around here before..."
"Ah! Over there!"
Just then, Illya suddenly exclaimed, pointing at a red vending machine located in an alley not far away. Before Kurumi could say anything else, Illya happily trotted over to the vending machine. And just as Illya reached out to press a button, someone casually walked over to the machine, reaching out their hand... and then the two of them collided.
"Ah, sorry..."
While apologizing, Illya stepped back, and the other person also waved it off.
"Ah, it's nothing, sorry..."
But neither of them completed their sentences, and the next moment, they both froze where they stood.
