To Be a Power in the Shadows!

Autumn was over and the season went into winter.

I watched the mobs at school and waited for fake bills to be made.

As they go through boring days without knowing anything, I'm on the road to the boss of a big, shady organization that rules the world's businesses.

Oh, even the boring routine looks radiant.

No one would even imagine me forming a Mobutrio with Hyoro and Jaga.

While I enjoy Moblife, I sometimes whine and tip them with meaningful words.

"The wind is noisy... great changes are coming..."

Nobody knows what that word means.

But that's fine. One day only a handful of them, who have found out everything, may remember.

My... words.

"Hey, come here."

"Stay."

It was Alexia with red eyes in her silver hair grabbing my root, which was in deep meaning mode, and dragging it forcefully.

"What can I do for you, busy man?

I say it's hard to resist and dragged. [M]

"I wanted you to see me in your spare time."

"What?"

Give me the sword.

Arrive at an unpopular dojo like that.

It was a small personal practice dojo on the edge of the school.

I sit on the floor, and Alexia sets up a practice sword.

Well, I was watching Alexia wave the sword.

And then I realized.

Was this guy this strong?

The last time I saw Alexia's sword, to put it that way, was a long time ago. I originally liked her sword. Just the sword.

Was it also a change of heart, or did you grab something?

Growing rapidly is more or less this pattern.

"I think so."

I told her to wave my sword.

"Yes."

She stopped the sword.

"Maybe I'll keep stretching. Amateur opinion, though."

"Yes, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Alexia turned away and wiped her sweat.

"You said you liked my sword before."

"Really?"

"That's right. So let me show you something."

"I see."

"But it's still not enough. I have more power."

"Heh."

"Why? Ask."

Alexia stared at me.

"I don't want to know anything."

"I couldn't protect Senior Rose. The Kingdom of Oriana is in a lot of trouble right now, and I'm sure my predecessors are suffering. That's why we need strength..."

"... I see"

Speaking of which, did Senior Rose end up getting away with it? I hope you're well.

"My sister has also been depressed lately... and it hasn't worked out very well. Behind this routine, the world is constantly moving. If I stop, they'll leave me right away..."

Yes, on the back of this routine, I'm moving.

"I don't want to be an outsider anymore. It's weird... I feel like I'm moving on my own volition and suddenly the time is moving fast"

That's what I'm talking about.

"You look relaxed. Thank you for today. I hope you'll be much easier."

She sighed and said so, and I left the dojo behind.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

When I left the dojo, the sun was already setting outside.

Winter nights get cold. When I got home early to the dorm, I disguised myself as John Smith and headed to an unpopular place.

There, there was a beast man with brown cat ears. Her name is Natsu, one of Yukime's neighbors.

"So, the requirement is"

I suddenly appeared behind her and said:

The nut turns around in a freak panic and looks at me like that cat.

"Jo, Dear John, don't surprise me too much"

"I didn't mean to surprise you..."

You just wanted to make a performance that suddenly appeared behind you.

"So, what's the requirement?

When I asked, she laughed more than just saying she was waiting. [M]

The two sides of Yukime are nuts and cana. Natsu and Kana are sisters, but they don't really look alike.

The nut is a grown-up woman with brown cat ears and Kana is a girl with black cat ears.

Nuts say as they move those brown cat ears in a crack.

"Example Item Completed"

"Right..."

Finally!

I jumped my chest at John Smith's upcoming story. [M]
