Leave the food procurement to the vegetables, and let the rest of the team pull through.

"Let's attack each pair from here."

"" "Roger!

We split into two groups from Asakura Cave.

Me and the picture crew are bypassing the west... boar and rabbit habitat.

"Fireshadow, don't you care?

Saori talked to me as I walked silently.

I said, "What happened?" and she continues.

"I refused to pair with Tanaka."

"It doesn't bother me. There must be a reason."

I wanted you to care about that.

Looks like I'd like you to ask me more details.

"If you want to say so... why not?

"Ahahah, so sweet."

I wondered if Saori had smiled and turned into a real face.

"I don't think you're complacent, but Tanaka-kun is interested in me, right?

"I'm not complacent. He's in love with the picture anyway."

"But I don't feel that way. I like it as a friend or companion, but I don't feel anything like he's in love with me."

I guess, I'll hit him with a gavel.

"I think everyone else sees it."

"If I had been in Japan, I would have told you that. I'm sorry, but I can't be your girlfriend. But I don't know if I can do it in this world. After all, life is hindered by the bad atmosphere caused by this matter, right?

Is that what you're saying?

I found out why.

She cares about the impact on her team.

Shaking Tanaka will make the mood worse.

"By shaking Tanaka, Tanaka may hate her."

"I don't mind that. But to everyone else..."

"I know. Still, I think I should shake it clean."

This is my opinion, but I will tell you after I put up a line of prevention.

"If I'm Tanaka's position, I'd better be clear. Otherwise, shady characters like me and Tanaka will have their own hope. If we work hard, we'll be able to drop it someday. If it is possible that there are no shards, please tell me as soon as possible. I think so."

"But that could have a negative impact on the team.

"I don't mind. That's when it happens. I can't help it. It's tougher to do things the way they are. Because of this environment, it would be better to clarify whether it is white or black as much as possible. Especially since the damage increases the later."

The picture sari leaned over.

I kept silent for a while and then raised my face.

"Fireshadow, you're right. I'll shake it when I get back."

"That's better. Me, too, but shady characters just fall in love with women by being a little gentle. Tanaka will be hurt at first, but soon she'll fall in love with a different woman."

Saori smiled happily.

"Tanaka-kun may be, but Fireshadow is not a shadow character."

"Unmistakable shadow character. What a mess I was at school."

I don't know. It was just a difficult atmosphere to talk about.

"I don't know what kind of good-looking guy I am, I don't know what kind of person I am."

Even though Saori laughed again, "Ahahah."

Now I was laughing a lot bigger than before.

"Thank you, Mr. Fireshadow. It cleared my mind."

"I'm looking forward to thanking you."

My gaze shifts from the picturesque face to my chest.

Naturally, she was aware of it.

"Fine, but make me feel good, too.

"I know."

The picturesque samurai came with his arms around him.

But the moment I teamed up, I left in a hurry.

"Cat, what's wrong!?

Somebody's here.

They captured the shadow of a distant tree, a thin, human figure.

"What do we do?

Saori asks.

"It's hard because I don't know if I'm a deserter...."

I will examine the response in my brain.

"Okay, I'll go alone."

"Alone?

"I don't know the details of the other person. Stay away from the picture and see how it goes. So if anything happens to me, go back to Ajito and tell your favorite vegetables. That way, we can get information to other people through monkeys."

"Okay."

I put the picture on standby and walked out on my own.

(There's only one sign...? There must have been two of them...?

There is no doubt that someone is hiding behind the tree.

But the sign was for one person, and the other did not know.

When I saw a glitter in the distance, I saw a pair of women.

"Don't move."

When I reached a few steps to the tree.

Suddenly, it was assembled by someone from behind.

Press into your chest with your left hand and point your right nail towards your neck.

"You weren't on the Imperial Castle team, were you? Who are you?"

It's a woman's voice.

No, more than that, when?

I suddenly wondered if the signs had disappeared, and at the next moment, I was behind.

I don't know what's going on, but this is all I can say.

This woman is not alone.

"I am Shinomiya Fire Shadow. I am acting separately from the Imperial Castle team. There's no hostility."

"What's the proof?

If there was any hostility, I'd stab you by now.

――

A woman notices.

I secretly pulled out the survival knife.

The blade of the knife held in the opposite hand with the right hand is facing the woman's thigh.

…………

The woman hardens without saying anything for a while.

We need you to take the next action.

Because Saori mistakenly went to call for help.

"This man doesn't seem to be working for the Imperial Castle, and what he says is true. Fighting skills are awkward, but I wonder if they deserve credibility."

"I understand," said the woman from behind the tree.

This should be the first sign.

"Heavenly sounds, if you say so."

The woman who was hiding in the tree comes out.

Blonde curl hair like a Hollywood star.

He is not so tall and has blue eyes like the sea.

Along with the Imperial Castle brothers, he is a celebrity of the school.

His name is...

"Forgive the sudden rudeness. We were desperate to live, too. I'm late. My name is Eagle Ridge, Sophia Reina, please call me Sophia."

--Eagle Ridge, Sofia, Reina.

She is the daughter of Microsoft, the world's largest company beyond the Imperial Castle Group.

My father is the oldest man in the world, Hill Hates.

"Heavenly sounds, you can let go."

Yes, ma'am.

Heavenly sounds relax your left arm.

But I said it in my ear before I let it go completely.

"When you threaten with a knife, you have to do something a little more murderous."

As the words reached my brain, the knife disappeared from my hand.

A woman called Heavenly Sound picked it up with a distraction from our understanding.

This woman... noticed the knife from the beginning.

On top of that, he pretended not to have noticed.

"Let me introduce you. This is my valet, Oniyuin Tennin."

Heavenly sounds greeted me carelessly and returned me the knife.

If you look closely, neither Sofia nor Heavenly Sound shows signs of being hit by rain.

So, Shinomiya-sama, what can I do for you?

Sofia gets to the point.

Her eyes looked straight at me.

The heavenly sound standing next to me won't miss a single shot.

There were signs that if I made a bad move, I would be killed without jokes.

"Can I call my buddies first? I'm sure you realize that, but there's one of my guys waiting in the back. Misunderstood and called for reinforcements."

The heavenly noise nods "Indeed."

"Okay."

With Sofia's approval, I called Saori.

As she lay down in the bushes, she comes sideways on a small run.

"This is my companion Shuanghawa. Our group consists of nine members, including me and Sakuri. The base of operations is just south of here, by the sea."

Sofia and Heaven don't say anything.

You're probably waiting for me to get down to business.

Now that I have finished introducing Saori, I have cut out the matter.

"We're trying to pull out members of the Imperial Castle team. That's a suggestion. Could you both join the team?

I was staring at Sofia as she understood the story.

It's a type that doesn't have to go into the market, but it's a type that plays its own swing in the brain.

If you have a legitimate idea, you should accept this suggestion.

If it doesn't suit you, you just have to deal with the sky noise.

I was right about that.

"I see. Join your team."

Sofia was comfortable without hesitation.
