"If you don't mind, I'll drive you to the inn?
"After this, I promise to meet with people."
For some time after Royles dropped him off, Hollow and Mint were also expecting a breakup time.
It is the effect of scheduling that he has been sparing time for the last three days. To fix the crazy dates, it was necessary to hang at least one school in every country. Nevertheless, give up the place, it's not like I can respond to you by saying yes.
In the end, there was nothing else to do until a date that was not a problem.
If I wanted to, I could train at the Inn's practice area, but it went hand in hand with a rest day to heal the fatigue accumulated in my bones in the battle against the wooden man. So, nine other people were out downtown shopping, sightseeing, and taking bone breaks to such an extent that their bodies couldn't help themselves.
After this, he also has a meeting with Mute and Django.
"... What will Mint do now?
In front of a carriage parked on the boulevard, Holloro asks Mint.
From now on - the fact that the word does not refer to the future a few hours away - was conveyed to her in the tone of her voice. Before that, given his worrying temper and the circumstances before and after, it was not easy to perceive his mood.
So her expression became brighter.
"It is certain that a quarrel with the general public has arisen in this case. To be honest, we want to dissolve the very organization called Divine Tree Religion, but there are those who use Divine Tree Religion as the foundation of their lives. There have long been believers who have inherited faith with their descendants… even if I am a witch, I am very unable to trample"
Take Hollow's hand and stare into its eyes.
"So... I, too, want to acquire the power of kindness as you do. Because we have to improve the organization from the inside out to protect the Christians. It's awkward now, but someday it's gonna be okay."
In retrospect, he continued with a full colour of joy, "… what can I do?"
"I'm not alone anymore."
The gait of getting into the carriage is light to see.
There is also a definite expression on the face that opens the dark screen and the window to peek into the car.
"Speaking of which, they're going to be at the Martial Arts Festival, right? Then you'll all have the opportunity. Please, may you be a breath disaster...... see you again, Hollow"
The words of farewell were always comfortable in my ears.

The cheerfulness near the evening goes hand in hand with the waterfront air, the capital's fountain park.
Holoro was eating a wait here. We got to the rendezvous point earlier than planned. Relax on the edge of the less popular fountain and look up at the blurry, starting to tint sky to get time for one without trying. In the meantime, he's been asking himself endlessly.
"Ugh...... hello"
Unexpectedly, Holoro heard a beautiful voice from directly next to him.
Turning her face, she immediately had the face of a girl her age or so.
Long, watery hair glittering in the sun is playing and dancing with the breeze. Creepy neat faces are beautiful, even cute. He looked like a long eyelash, crying bollocks, straight nasal muscles, slightly thick thin red lips, watery eyes like glass balls, and the more he looked at it, the more he was blinded.
If you reach out, it's not. The face is literally ahead of the eyes and nose.
Why is that? So close, it's like there's no sign...?
He took a breath to the girl who crouched over the edge of the fountain and stared with her narrowed eyes. I was perplexed that the complete sensation didn't work even when it came so close - it was then.
With his lips broken and lukewarm, and the bright red tongue the girl gives out, he was licked up his nose tip with a smudge.
"Ugh..."
Suddenly, more to the act, Holoro ran scared on his spine. It seemed like a deviant behavior, very unlikely from its unusual appearance. He panicked and turned his face upside down.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Soba. It's a habit... you had fun the other day, didn't you?
"Let... the other day?
The girl down the edge of the fountain makes a creepy little leap and speaks eloquently.
"Yes, it was a long time then, what a heartbeat time. The moment someone bets on their flesh to become a meat chunk, etc., was especially... wet knowing it couldn't be. But if you ask me, someone's resurrected, and that's not all that's funny."
"Um, what are you talking about?
"The kid on the table is stubborn and I just look inside. I can't stand being rushed. If I went out of town to pick it on the palm of my hand already...... ugh. I just saw you."
The girl, who was bored with a tranced look, turns her hand roughly.
Holoro couldn't move because he felt the pressure he might not be able to handle.
"The extraordinary power I felt then, ah, I just remembered, go -"
Dirty words went out of his mouth and he heard a voice he remembered to overlap.
"Hey Hollow, sorry I'm late -"
Mute and Django apparently arrived.
Holoro, realizing it, exhaled relieved to see the two of them. But when I could show the girl the transformation of tongue-beating and going back to sanity, I was about to get another unspeakable scare back.
"Well, greetings have come true... see you soon. Bye."
Then the girl disappeared somewhere just a few souls away.
Even what time it was, Holoro didn't realize. In the first place, I couldn't feel a sign at all of the girl I was supposed to be talking to so close. It was horrible that the complete sensation did not work, as it should be, but once it occupied its flavour, it could not be detected.
"Sorry I'm late. Sounds like you were with someone earlier... but you're sweating, aren't you?
"... what's up? Is something wrong?
Cared for by the two people who rendezvous, Holloro becomes aware of it.
"No, uh, look, I sweat..."
Deceiving me to say so doesn't make the shock to my spirit go away. As he took a deep breath to calm his severe palpitations, he continued to tell himself:
"It's okay. It's nothing."
