"... I wonder if it's easy for me to get flushed..."

Ning shrugged as he grabbed to his shoulder in the comfortable water of an open-air bath.

It's totally dark around and the moon is beautiful at sixteen nights.

Maybe Annis is looking at the same month.

Second, I thought about Annis, who would be in an open-air bath equipped with rooms these days, and I thought of her figure bathing in the stream, mostly white skin.

"...... Yikes!!

At the same time, he screams and puts his head in the water, striving to erase the image.

Hi. That's crazy. I can't get over it.

On the way home from that walk, Ning was going to tell Anis his answer. I don't care what happens.

But when I tried to get the word out, it was blocked by anise. Thin fingers were placed on her lips, she said.

'... no, Nate. Let me hear it later tonight.'

She looked very otona-like at that time and I was a little sure, but I immediately went back to my usual smile like this.

'I'm with Nate because of this, and I came to the hot spring, so I want to take a bath, and I want to have dinner! That's what we're talking about. Yo!!

But even Ning people are not stupid. I know what she means.

Depending on the Ning people's answers back then, Anis is nowhere near having a good night today. I think that's why that healthy girl wanted to make time with me before she heard that.

If, when my answer wasn't what she wanted, at least make it a nice memory.

I would have been able to say no, but the Nings accepted it. In that situation, I wonder if anyone can poke at it.

Ning's room is equipped with an open-air bath, but how dare Annis even tell me to come in with her.

but that manages to say no, and Ning people are coming to an open-air bath shared by guests this way. Fortunately, there were no other guests in, and the Ning were able to sum up their thoughts as they quietly watched the moonlight and soaked in water.

"... okay, me too, man"

It's been long water, but I'm ready.

When I left the bath and wore Yukata and Tanmae, I noticed an email from my new name on the phone I had put in.

'I think the big evil guy means he's fuzzy even if he has about a harem, right? See, isn't that what great people are for? I think Sempai is too serious, I think.

What a timely email. Esper or him. I can't help but think.

Back in the room, a meal had already been prepared and Anis was sitting back in his seat.

"Ah! Nate, welcome back! Offro, how'd it go?

That's what I hear. Her blonde hair is unusual and tied. The white noodles were all over me.

"Oh, oh... yeah. Right. Refreshed. Anis... you're a yukata."

"Yeah!... Do I look good?

Annis pinches her sleeves and spreads her hands, making her look like a yukata just a little shy.

"Oh, yeah. Uh, cute, I think."

Ning people accidentally divulged the true meaning of Park.

Blonde, white and still young, Annis' yukata looks unbalanced. But that was the strange and fascinating part. Even though I'm like a girl, I get upset because it's hot water or because I smell something of color.

"Wow! Ahhh. Thanks. Well, sit down and sit down! Gohan, eat. Try it. There's so many fish! Looks delicious yo!

It wasn't a very attentive compliment, but Annis seemed very pleased with it.

Even the Ning people who are looking at me feel happy.

"Oh, right. Do you want some?"

So the Ning decided to eat normally for dinner first.

Nothing, not because I wanted to put it off. How dare you.

"Yeah! Ah, dozodozo. Mr. Chacho!"

When Annis did it, he grabbed the liquor in a playful tone, made it weird, and took advantage of it.

"What's that?"

It was a little funny, so I take that with my pork mouth laughing.

"Hmm? It's Gaisha, yo? Nate, you're Japanese and you don't know?

"Geisha? That's wrong. Maybe."

"I'm not wrong. Because Nate is Slayer's Shacho!

It gets mucky in a weird place for some reason.

When you're with an anise that changes your expression like this, you're often going to laugh.

So dinner turned out to be a good time.

The two of us struggle badly to whisk through the contents of the sawdust, talk about each other's childhood stories, and memorabilia to date since we met.

I'm sure Anis enjoyed it, and I'll never forget it.

That's what Ning thought.

Dinner was ready, and when the meal was lowered, there was a little silence in the room, but Annis opened the window of the room when he stood up, and walked out into the space, which was like a small courtyard, around an open-air bath with a room.

"Hey! Come here! The stars are amazing, yo!

The Ning people are also outside because of the anise they are saying so.

Indeed, I could see a starry sky full of heaven just because I was in the mountains.

"Oh, that's beautiful."

"Hey!"

When they say that, they both become silent again and look at the stars for a while.

How long has it been? Once he took a big, deep breath, Annis turned his body toward the Ning and slowly opened his mouth.

"... I'm sorry. Today, you had a lot to do with it. I can't hold him back anymore. That's why I'm here.... so will you listen to me properly?

Ning can also see the growing tension between the two. He was a Ning who had never been frightened in front of any enemy before, but those experiences did not help him at all.

"... no, that's fine"

That was the best way to whine.

"Nate is sweet. Nate's the only bad guy in the world that's so sweet, I'm sure."

Annis' eyes stared straight at the Ning.

Her blue eyes are so beautiful, they're going to be taken away.

"Me, too. I've been watching Nate the whole time. I was always excited about Nate going on and on. And I'm thrilled."

That word, which seems to be cut, pierces Ning's chest.

"I know everything about Nate, yo. There's no need to visit Manaka's grave, curry only eats chicken curry... you do bad things, you fight, and every time you cry, you suffer so much, you hide it from everyone."

Annis' voice was trembling. You must be very courageous. Well, she really isn't a child anymore, I made her feel.

"So I want to be with Nate forever.... I want to see where Nate dreams. I don't want to be one of them.... to Nate's most important girl, I want to be Steady"

Annis' blue eyes were moist and the beautiful Shizuku seemed to spill from it even now.

Speaking of which, it will be one day. I think.

Ning people don't like girls originally. I was also confused about Anis not knowing how to deal with him at first. But one day when they were with her, they were able to stay in nature. I can't remember when that started anymore.

That's probably because she always had that sunflower-like smile on her face. This is how she communicates her thoughts.

……

Annis put her hand around her chest and spinned the words so that she could see what was important.

"I've always had more 'likes' to Nate. I love Nate."

That word, which is similar to prayer. It was the first time for Ning people to be born that someone told me.

So it resonates with my heart very strongly.

I've done a lot of outrageous things. Girl who stayed by my side all the time like that.

Girl who stands at the top as a villain and crushes the world, just knows who she has been running for and still wants to be on her side.

A girl who was brighter and gentler than anyone else and always illuminated everyone's heart.

I care so much about Anis.

I sincerely hope her future is full of happiness.

On the other hand, I know what I'm going to have to do, what I want to achieve, and what I secretly hold in my chest, too.

So the Ning people's answer had already been decided.

"Anis.... I am"

The Ning replied to her as she shook.

"I don't feel the same way about Annis."

He said his new name was Oh, but Ning is not the kind of man who can cleverly hang out with women.

Besides, I haven't told anyone yet, but there's a reason I can't make a woman close to me happy beyond this.

And above all, the path for the Ning people to crush the world they go on is the path they need to be prepared to fight through at the end of the day, even if they are alone. You can't make someone special.

There are other things to take precedence over. Even with her pure thoughts, it doesn't slip away.

So I know this is ego.

"... sorry"

There was nothing else I could do, and Ning lowered his head.

A dozen seconds or so passed in time and I heard Anis.

"... mmm. Really... that's what Nate answers, I knew it"

I was afraid to look at Annis' face. But you can't run away.

Ning slowly raised his face and confronted Anis straight.

She shuddered her shoulders with tears all over her eyes.

Still, he was smiling at me.

"Oh, I'm flabbergasted yo...... chih"

"I..."

"It's okay! You don't have to say anything!... I know.... So, Zettai, make it happen. The world Nate aspires to. Don't lose, till the end."

She really seemed to know everything.

So the Nings responded with strong and heavy words.

"Oh. I'll always win"

"Yeah. Nate, after all."

Anis smiled at me again when he heard the Ning people.

But soon he turns his back and looks up at the sky.

Maybe that's because it's hard to smile. And I'm sure he's looking up.

"... Gu, sorry. I knew you'd just cry a little! It's okay! I thought this might happen! Another room is actually reserved for you, Annis. Yo!

Now the tone was awkward, but the tears were no longer hidden.

But I can't let the Nings see it and make me feel heartbreaking. Because that's ignoring her healthy notices.

"Oh well. Then I'm just a little more starry. Good night."

So Ning said that as usual.

"Mmm. See you tomorrow."

When Annis says so, she goes back to her room. It made me want to hug that back, but I can't.

And she said, See you tomorrow.

He will continue to be with me as a companion to me when I was unable to meet my thoughts. That's what she told me. In fact, the problem, Anis' help is still needed, and she knows that, too. Based on that, that's what he told me.

You can never trample on that feeling. So instead of hugging me, I screamed.

"I was really happy!! Thanks!!"

Annis looked back with a sneezy face and showed me the piece sign at the end.

For some time after Anis was gone, the Ning people were unwilling to do anything and looked at the stars as they were, but something happened that they could not have done otherwise.

A communication terminal made an incoming call. Besides, this is an emergency call.

Hurry up and get the terminal. The caller was a new name.

"It's me. What's the matter with you?

"Ah, Sempai!? Sarsen, are you okay now?

"There's nothing like you imagine. Quick, say the requirements."

It was only at the beginning that my new name would make this emergency call. The new name can usually be dealt with, and there should be very little that would currently be a slayer threat in the first place.

So this correspondence means something really big is going on.

'Oh, well, you will, won't you? KEKO, something bad is happening. Uh, is there a TV there? Turn on channel 53 first.

…… TV? "

I didn't really know what that meant, but for now I tried to turn on the TV in the room as instructed.

"Hey, what's this... what's this about...?

In the upper-right corner of the monitor, the letters' All World Simultaneous Broadcasting 'and' LIVE '.

And it's Metallica HQ that's being shown. It seemed to be an aerial shot of the square in front of Metallica headquarters to be exact.

The Guardians keeping the wild horses away from the square with their shields, in the centre of which Metallica combatants were fighting against someone.

I described it as "someone" because one Metallica fighter after another, Soitz, moved too fast to be captured on camera.

What kind of situation is this? Why is there a battle going on in front of Metallica headquarters, and it's on the air? And who is he fighting for?

Only the last question was resolved immediately. Because I turned my camera into something that was capable of high-speed shooting, or because I could now follow the motion of "Someone" with my eyes.

Someone, it was a man I knew.

I've only seen him in person once, but he can't possibly forget.

Sempai! Can you hear me!? Looks like some kind of Metallica HQ is under attack!! Besides, to just one man!!

The voice of the new name is in a panic rather than appearance. That would be so. This is an unscrupulous situation.

"Oh, that sounds like it.... I know who that man is"

What is it? The famous one?

Even if you don't know your new name, no, you don't have to be unaware.

That man has a more famous, different appearance.

Why haven't you been transformed? Why are you fighting while you're still alive and exposed to the public?

Why would a mysterious hero who's been so thoroughly hiding himself come here and show the whole world who he is?

Ning people didn't know.

Sempai! Are you listening!?

"Oh... he's probably the most famous man in the world"

When the Nings were new employees, justice was the first to fight.

A hero who defeated Fujiro, the former leader of Metallica.

Make it the first Rocks. The strongest warrior.

Keeping the peace and fighting evil, the hope of the world

"That man is Thousand Stones (Sengoku) Shinki (Hiroki),... It's Dylan"

The Ning people couldn't even break their unpleasant feeling of springing up. And I thought intuitively.

This must be a foretaste of something big.

And that 'something' should be the biggest threat to me.

This is the werewolf smoke of a fight by a righteous hero.
