Due to the shivering snow, the campus and courtyard of Midir College were being dyed white.

Dark cloudy skies, similar to the darkness. White shards slowly falling from that narrow space.

I watched such a sight through the hallway window, and the snow was no different from Earth, and Arisu Current Protection had a reassuring emotion. By the way, they say it's the first snow.

The moon of innocence, thirty-one days. Continental calendar 781, last day.

There are no signs of people on the College grounds that will be coloured white.

The public is on winter break - the college is celebrating a long vacation called "The Silence of the White Rabbits Carm," and the majority of the students return to their parents' homes.

The period is longer than Summer's Rest of the Ethereal Thunderbird (Raptors Rest), approximately four weeks.

On New Year's Eve, known as Phineasend, the treatment of New Year's Eve, known as Nivsil, is no different from that of Japan, and many spend a break away from work.

I was on a vacation after my assignment at Jackroat, but of course, it was the soldier's duty to have to deploy whenever there was anything. Then, fortunately, that should be unlikely, Belgrette and Carbolo had told me.

In this period from the end of the year to the New Year, carriage shops will basically also be closed. If so, it becomes difficult to go far away. As a result, travelers and others often settle into the city they were staying in and wait for the year to dawn. Praying to God that we have been safe this year, and that we will be safe next year.

This reduces the number of people who walk, thus reducing the number of unnecessary rubbings. With everyone at home, there are fewer burglars. If so, the work of soldiers will also be reduced. That seems to be the case.

Nevertheless, royal castles and the like are as usual. Because it's New Year's Eve, there's no way I'm going to make defense handy. This is basically where the soldiers will rotate and a minimum number of people will be present in the castle.

And how many minutes of "nothing," a noisy and harsh world. Few have a home or family to return to. Some seem proud that such humans are often replacing castles with houses, rather welcoming new years under the same roof as royalty.

And there are many who have no place to return to this college of Midir. Exactly. It must be one of them.

And...

"Lugo, I'm ready!

It was Mia, the familiar energetic daughter, who opened her own door and gave her a quick peek in the face.

She's also one of the lost places to go now.

Those with these circumstances have no choice but to spend time in the college without refusal.

By the way, unlike "Rest of the Ethereal Thunderbird (Raptors Rest)", the cafeteria is also completely closed for the homecoming of faculty and miscellaneous workers. I don't have to worry about getting hungry because food commensurate with the number of guests will be distributed in advance, but I have to cook myself if I want to eat a lot of that stuff.

By the way, this year, Dr. Locke will be the only adult left in the college to be in charge. Instead, the Doctor is one of those people who keeps living here again.

"Heh, it's snowing so much. Didn't notice."

Behind the drift protection, Mia looks out the window and shines her eyes.

"Is that it? Mia's gonna jump in the snow fine, isn't she? Roll around."

"I wouldn't do anything like that dog!

"So you're the kind of guy who's rounded up like a cat."

"Cottage? What?

"Oh well. Er, that's called a snail..."

When I explain to you about traditional Japanese heating appliances, girls don't seem to like it! and it looked intriguing. As I see the cold silver world out there, Lifeguard tells me to throw.

"What is it? I'm putting out all sorts of sealing tools... Jarome, is that the Chamber of Commerce? I wonder if that's where they make it."

I've never been very conscious of drift protection either, but the popular and high-performance sealing tools used in close proximity were mostly offered by this Chamber of Commerce. The same goes for the Mia recommended thermostats that I bought in preparation for this winter. Its base is a small country in the north that will be the kingdom of Eiffalk, but you think it is this Chamber of Commerce that sells the best in the neighborhood?

If there are now products out there that use the example soul-minded "Prarna" crystal, which is currently being developed in Raindeer, a stone will also be thrown at a market that is regarded as the best of Jarome.

(Is that it? Should I develop it on our own? Cottage.)

All right, I'll suggest to the Doctor later, he was a contemporary Japanese boy who nodded.

"Ugh... how are Belle and the others doing these days?"

Mia, who looked at the cold sky next door, whines like a maiden in love.

"I guess it's fun to do it without family water"

Yes, it is. Of course I don't have my usual facial rash, nor do I have Belgrette and Claria. Far east, returning to the mansion of Gertillude.

They also asked me if I would go to the mansion with them for this holiday. But Lifeguard and Mia politely declined. I've disturbed you so much in the summer, I just wanted you to have fun purely with your family.

"Dr. Claire, be honest with Mr. Rubert -" I said with a raw, warm look at him. It was drifting protection, but the guide said, "Extra help!" Needless to say, I was pissed off.

But a full-fledged homecoming since summer. It was obvious that even though he was tuned, he could not hide the joy of seeping out of the depths of his heart.

(Well to be honest, that's what I wanted to go with...)

... I still had the thought that as a shield, I could not release the colorful flowers that were still awake and sleeping.

However, it should be said that even if it falls, it will not just happen. Because of this, we are planning to use this opportunity to conduct an experiment.

"But you look forward to the night! Do we get through this properly?

"For once, at this stage, we shouldn't be at a distance..."

This time, on the occasion of the Belgrettes' return home, they decided to test run the communications equipment under development.

Seven hours by carriage, from the College to the mansion of Gertillude. If we leave this far, Belgrette and Mia's skill will not be able to reach us.

There, it is a communication device. I had one of these set up at the Belgrettes' mansion, and I was supposed to try to fly communications at the designated time - 8 p.m. If we go through with this, we will also be able to demonstrate the usefulness of the communication equipment. Communication is not only possible for those who cannot use the technique from the outset, such as Shinobu and the Doctor, but also beyond the limits that even the chanter Mage cannot technically reach.

"Heck yeah! Damn it!

Mia accidentally made me sneeze like an old man.

"Whoa, that's right. The hallway's pretty cold, too. Let's go in the room."

"Yeah, go ahead."

As such, he is invited into Mia's room that the cleanup has been completed.

Beautiful room with a hint of sweetness. In the center of it was the figure of the ancestors. One girl sits down properly and behaving on top of her seat. Its skinny, long, beautiful chestnut hair, and neat, adorable, soft face surrounded by a black Gothic dress were like adorable dolls decorated there.

"Again, Reef. Lugo, you're here."

"Oh, I've been waiting for you. Mr. Lugo."

Girls who feel like talking too hard can naturally smile.

"Whoa. Sorry to bother you, Leafia."

"Ha, ha."

Leafia Windfall. Fifth place as one of the 'pentas' affiliated with Midir College. Transcendental beyond the boundaries of a constant man, yet his character is understated, deeply itchy, and heartless at the bottom.

As for drift protection, I got to know her in the summer when she came to the college to be tested, but there was also the King's Capital terrorism shortly afterwards, and since then, it has been a pattern of face-to-face of something to the extent of counting.

Initially, Leafia couldn't control the great power she had when she got to know her, and she often let it erupt.

The feeble side of pessimism about such an unsuccessful situation was also noticeable, but has become a little more positive lately. He encouraged practice so that he could control the technique, and also mastered communication techniques that he could not handle. It was no longer as easy to creep as it used to be.

"Wow, I've never spent this way at the end of the year......!

Leafia is also one with no family. The house I usually live in was also addressed by the state, under the circumstance that the researchers are often present.

This time, she was invited to the academy as a guest to spend New Year's Eve with, with permission from Lifeguard. By the way, I got a lot of thanks from Dr. Rock, who's putting me in the leafy. By now, I would be diligently cleaning my own lab.

"Okay, what are you playing at?

"We have so much time, let's do it all!

Time is crushed with board games called Tradiera and streamlined homemade cards, and serene fun times flow by.

I also played this and the conversation. The first thing I knew. College events. Sometimes this unclean month was densely packed with street protection and Claria in Belgrette, as well as Mia's birthday, that she flipped them and threw a huge birthday party the other day.

The story ends but becomes more and more exciting,

"Don't go to sleep today. We're having a new year - Reef!

"Ha, ha."

exciting little girls, but

(... I feel like I'm definitely going to sleep, these two...)

Why, it was a drift protection with something almost certain.

At 8: 00 p.m., the three men moved to the vaulted room where the communication equipment was installed.

"Ugh, it's cold! Apply a thermostat, Lugo."

"Oh, I'll take care of it, Mia. ……………"

I look back at the girl in the wind, nervous as she stands at the entrance, as opposed to Mia, who doesn't shy away like her own room.

You can come in, Leafia.

"Ha, ha. Oh, excuse me......!

I guess you're wondering if it's a men's room or blowing up furniture or something with your own breeze.

Leafia, who came in like a surprise, looks at the black box in the back and rounds her eyes.

"That's... a tool for communication, is it?

"Oh. Better than I thought, isn't it?

large square objects with about a meter square, similar to DJ players and vaults.

Development has also progressed, and it has now been demonstrated that if it is between Wang capital and college, the passage of mixed noises will pass.

This time, the homecoming Belgrettes should be taking one and installing it somewhere in the mansion, so we're trying to see if we can communicate even at this distance.

If you succeed with this, you will be able to use it almost like a landline.

Of course, many challenges will arise, such as whether spreading the number will not mix communication audio. The longevity of the crystals being gutted is also extremely short. When will it ever be possible to handle it with ease, like communications technology itself or mobile phones?

Either way, this attempt should be the first step towards penetrating the communications equipment.

"It's time. Ok......"

In the warming room, the shield was engaged in the operation of the communication equipment. Move knobs and levers and set the volume, direction, etc. in detail.

In front of the communications equipment on the other side, the Belgrettes should be standing by.

Between 8: 00 p.m. and 20: 00 p.m., they are supposed to fly communications toward Gertillude's mansion. If there is a response in the last twenty minutes, it will be a success, but fulfill it...

All right, let's get this comms started.

"Hey, you're kind of nervous!

"Ha, ha."

As Mia and Leafia watched, the speaker of the device began to make a deafening noise with Zaza as he pressed the button to initiate communication with Pochili.

Lifeguard coughs one up with Ohon, calling on the sisters who are supposed to be on the other side.

"Er... hey. It's a shield, can you hear me?

But there's no response, and all you hear is noise.

"Belle child, Claire. It's a drift shield... Hello..."

I'll try to talk to you about it as a snack, but from the machine it only returns sounds like a sandstorm.

"Hmmm... I figured with all this away, I still can't do it"

"You only make noises." Hey, Belle, Claire. "

As it stands, I don't even know if the other one is in front of the communication device. Or maybe he's calling from the Bellettes in the same way, but thinks there's no response from this one.

"For now, as planned, I'll keep you connected for twenty minutes."

That's how I spend it right, and I try to call it out like I remember it from time to time.

Hello, Bell. Can you hear me?

"Hey, Lugo."

"Hmm? What's up, Mia?"

"I was just wondering," Hello "?

That's what they say, and it's the first time I've been hacked.

"Well, aren't you going to tell me it's this world? In our world, you say it when you start talking on the phone. Call me... I don't know if I'll put it in front of you. Hello? It's like a shield."

"Heh. This way, is it like 'Leaver'?

When Mia said so slightly, now the drift guard hammered him.

"Ah. Yeah, I guess so. A lot of people say 'leavers' when they use communication technology. I've been plain wondering, what does that mean?

Since the beginning of his visit to Grimclows, he has heard Belgrette and others respond that way when they roll out their communications technology. More than six months later, I've tried to shake my doubts now.

"Ugh, hmm. Me, too, I don't know what it means..."

Then Leafia, who was listening to the two conversations, cut out as if she had decided to "uh-huh".

"Originally, the ancient Italian word for 'lead over' was shortened, and it's a word that means' I'll return the reaction 'or something...... Other theories, they say, are based on the name of the sound god Lediovar because of the interaction of sounds......!

Oh yeah, the girl in the wind shrinks shyly in the wake of admirable drift protection and Mia's gaze.

"When I was taught about the art of communication, I heard that from the instructor..."

So Mia, who is surprised to say, "What the heck -" like an innocent child, was a father's substitute (self-proclaimed) shield who became a little worried that you wouldn't even know if you were a college student.

"Uhm, it's been twenty minutes..."

While doing so, the scheduled time was about to pass without communication either. From the speakers, sassy and inorganic noise only flows, as always.

"Couldn't it still be at this distance..."

It was an unfortunate adolescent boy not being able to hear Belgrette's voice at the end of the year than the experiment did not go well.

So suddenly, Mia, who snorted all the way, attaches to the communication device. And

"- Belle. Marry me."

I said that in a good voice if I did.

"I'm not afraid of Claire. Instead, it burns better to have walls. So, Belle, come with me."

"Mia, what happened all of a sudden? Are you bluffed?"

"No, if you're not hearing me anyway, I thought I'd say whatever I want. Look, Reef, sometimes you can say what you want to say."

Mia invited me, and there's no way I can turn down a weak leafy. The windy girl seated in front of the communications device compares the faces of the drift guards as troubled.

"Then give Belle and Claire a real word! Look, it's for real!

"Why are you acting like such a punishment game..."

"I'll decide if I've told you the truth. If I say something that doesn't make sense, I'll let it start over. Lugo is next, so think about it while you can!

"Seriously."

Leafia was confused with those two sideways, but breathed softly with a slightly more serious look. Talk to the speaker, as you are prepared.

"Uh, Mr. Bell. Thank you for being my friend. Well, maybe it's a shame... I actually admire Mr. Bell... and I want to be a strong, cool woman, like Mr. Bell one day."

(i) Put your breath down,

"Mr. Claire. I'm flattered about Mr. Claire, who can also have a clear attitude towards adult men. Even though you're only one year different from me, it's amazing. I'm so glad you kept fighting for me in that summer incident..."

Keep your head down to the dust, even though you don't think they hear you.

"This is me... but I want you to continue to be my friend...! Nice to see you next year and beyond."

Leafia, nagging at the end of her words, was turning bright red to her ears. It can be described as an unveiled manifestation of our true intentions.

(Leafia is... a good girl...)

With such a smiling, calm air flowing.

The referee, Mia, had covered her face with both hands.

"Mr. Mia."

"... I don't know... Leaf's purity... my heart is too pretty to look at..."

"Hmm. Mia, full of desire, maybe you should apprentice a little"

When the driftshield nods mysteriously, the girl intimidates her sharply like a sudden cat.

"What, no more! Look, it's Lugo's turn next!

"I can't help it......"

It dampens the cohon and throat and speaks to the communication device.

"Uh... Mr. Bell, I always take care of you. Claire, thank you for your help. One thing for you next year."

"What the fuck! That's your ride, Reef! Let's start over. Whoa!

The little judge was very upset.

"I don't care what you say..."

"Hmm! That's enough! I don't fake myself! Belle, you look great! Let's get married! Claire, I can't beat your obstruction! I'll never... I'll definitely let you call me my sister-in-law! Rather call me! Ooh!"

'- Oh, my God, this has come out big. Mia'

The moment, time stopped.

Stream protection, Mia, and Leafia. I even hold my breath, and that gaze pours on the speaker.

Only a small mechanical sound of a warm wind-swept thermostat, go…, was wooden in a often narrow room.

'Oh. You've suddenly become quiet. Does that mean you hear me?

It's like freezing a warm indoor. A familiar chilling voice flows ruthlessly from a speaker in a communication device.

"Cre... a, honey...?

"Yes, Claria."

"Uh, uh. Come on, it's your fault, isn't it? I can't hear, I can't hear..."

"Didn't you hear that?

I didn't hear you.

'Really? Well, I don't know if I can hear you, but the next time I see you, I'll shrug you in my head.'

"I'm sorry. Ahhh!

Watching Mia being grounded toward the box, Lifeguard nodded with a sinister face toward the cautious' Penta 'girl.

"Uh... I don't know... Leafia shouldn't be like this -"

"Yes, no. It's like Mia, the..."

A girl of the wind who is indispensable for caring for her opponent at all times. There's an angel. Smudgingly, the drift shield casts a voice over the lying mia to the communication device.

"Oh, Claire, can you hear me?

"Yeah, I hear you."

Although the voice was slightly distant, there was a definite response.

"Oh. It took me a while, but did you manage to connect..."

'I heard your conversation earlier. It's just that the voice from this one didn't seem to reach you.'

It was Leafia who frightened me. Whether I guessed such a reaction or not, Claire's gracious voice echoes from the other side.

"Leafia. Welcome and best wishes for next year"

"Ha, ha, uh, the...!

As a leafier, it is also the real thing that I could say because I didn't think it sounded like me in person. I guess I can't wait to embarrass myself, it was turning bright red like it was boiled again.

"Leaver, it's Belgrette. Heh. Thank you, Leafia. I will continue to refine you so that you do not give up your love. Nice to see you again. '

The next thing I heard was the voice of Belgrette full of charity.

"Ha, ha."

Leafia is completely smaller.

"Whoa, Mr. Bell? Where did you put the comms?

"Good day, Lugo. I set it up in my room."

"Right...... I managed to connect, but it took a long time, and it sounded bad..."

Nevertheless, this experiment can be described as a success in terms of proper communication received. Later, you'll need to report back to Dr. Locke.

'By the way, it looks like Mia suddenly got quiet...'

If you do your gaze at Belgrette's point,

"He's dead."

Right beside the communications equipment, there was Mia's unusual appearance lying like an exhausted wreck.

"I thought I had to live with some human behavior, Maru."

We were all interested in chatting a lot, but the communication condition was not fragrant, so we opened "next year" in a good place in Kiri.

Charming singing princess thing Meatilade Hermelodia, the twenty-seventh performance is also a huge success!

A thousand people, fascinated by its angel singing and peachy eyes, returned to their hearts with a very satisfying aftertaste. Of course, the author is one of them.

Lefe's governor Kayer still lay on the floor, Bulkfort snowed heavily, resentful demons grew everywhere... etc., yesterday after dark news, but I can assure you that her singing was something that energized such a darkening world.

I want you to light up the continent forever with that song -.

Next issue, we approach the face of Emmane Rube Ohmzolf, the young leader of the Badalnois Divine Empire, the consecrated Divine Divine Chief, Shijinko! Executor of the new reform, 'Virgin of the Truth' What is that way!? Beg!

(... dude, what time is it?)

Liquid protection with a fuzzy face up from the "Very Scary Ghostlore Uncleansed Moon Edition" I was reading confirms a rolling pocket watch. The time is after eleven o'clock at night. I had an hour left on the continent for 871 years.

And

(Ha, I knew it)

To the sight right in front of you, break your mouth.

After correspondence with the Belgrettes, the three of them returned to Mia's room, where they had a busy time, believing that they would play until next year.

(um, what a prediction)

If you think it was slightly quieter, both Mia and Leafia lay on the carpet to rest in peace.

"Look, both of you, you're gonna catch a cold."

I can't help but wake you up. I have no choice, so I'll blanket each of them.

"Mmm... Lugo ku, I can't eat anymore..."

"No, it's not food, come on, don't scratch the blanket. I've never seen him sleep in real life before..."

"To Guhehe... Belle... Belle..."

"You're steadfast and true to your desires, Mr. Mia..."

"Belle,... munchkin... as always, my right tit..."

Sudden bomb remarks stopped the drift protection movement perfectly.

"Mi... my right tit...... anyway...... nooooooooooooooooooo"

The adolescent boy gobbles and throats as he looks down at Mia repeatedly like every wow.

"... ugh."

What? What's with Belle's right tit? What's the matter? Is there any difference between the left and the right? What the hell is going on? Is that it? Is it like a sharp arm? Handy tits.

The boy concentrates his spirit after listening to each word. As if you confronted a strong enemy.

"Right......"

"The right...?

"... keep it a secret."

"You're not going to tell me!

I wrapped my disturbing daughter in a blanket when I fell asleep.

On the other hand,

"... Munya, uhh, sorry..."

"Be strong once in a while, be strong"

Leafia, a girl with even a weak breeze to sleep with. An unusual sleeping face is supposed to have eight shaped eyebrows about what you're having trouble with until in your dreams.

"Let's be as strong as we dreamed. Look, repeat after me. Golden Ball, Crash, Did You, Olah"

"... munchkin... ooh... ooh... ooh... ooh"

"Ooh, oh, wait, now none, lie, lie"

Either way, the sleeping reaction is also smiling in each one again.

(...)

A sigh of relief looking out into the perfectly quiet room sneaked behind the room to keep the two of them awake.
