Chapter 4: Party Time

Part 1

“Wha…………”

At a mysterious facility located in a forest quite desolated from the Tenguu

city. Ellen opened her eyes wide in shock at a high ground which allows her

to have a good view to observe the weird Reiha reading.

However it was only natural. That’s because, the advance team which

consists of 20 <Bandersnatch> that has attacked the facility, were all

destroyed throughout by a mysterious light shot out from the facility.

“-------the <Bandersnatch> team has been annihilated…….!”

“I-it had an amazing Reiryoku readings to it…..!”

The voices of operators came from the communicator equipped in the CRunit.

Ellen brought her eyebrows closer in detest-----however, *Fuuun* she

snorted to regain her composure.

“……….I see. It’s not just some normal facility”

She said that while folding her arms and her weapons made a clanking

sound.

Right now, Ellen wasn’t wearing the coat she wore during the afternoon,

and was wearing the platinum CR-unit <Pendragon> which is named after a

king’s name.

It’s the strongest armor and sword created for humanity’s strongest

Wizard-Ellen. There is no enemy Ellen can’t handle once she wears this war

armor. Not to mention, Itsuka Shidou who is not even a Wizard; she’s able

to make him kneel down without laying a finger on him.

“……………..”

The same time she thought that, she remembered the mistake she

performed during the afternoon. Ellen tapped her elbow in an irritated

manner before ordering the <Bandersnatch> team.

“Second wave, ready. I will sortie next, please be careful of anti-aerial

attack”

“Yes!”

The operator’s reply echoed to respond to Ellen’s words; then the armed

<Bandersnatch> team standing by behind her started flying up to the sky in

order.

But---at that moment.

“………!?”

Just after seeing a ray of light appear in her view, 3 <Bandersnatch> head

instantly blow up after they went on ahead.

“This----“

After mumbling, she half-consciously placed her hands on the handle of the

high energy laser blade <Caledfwlch> burdening her from behind. She then

pulled it out and the same time she generated the magic light blade, she

swung it down towards the shadow which appeared.

Instantly, strong magic light scattered about nearby.

“----Mana”

“As expected from Ellen. You won’t get beaten that easily huh”

After Ellen said her name, the girl who appeared there all of a sudden, *nii*

distorted the edge of her lips and flew behind.

It was a young girl with a ponytail hairstyle. But, the black blue CR-unit

she’s wearing shows the extraordinary history she holds.

Takamiya Mana. Itsuka Shidou’s real sister and DEM’s former number 2

Wizard.

“I never would have imagine you to appear”

“There’s no way I would stay quiet when I was told that Onii-sama is in big

trouble. Sorry but, it won’t go the way you want now that I am here, Ellen”

Mana said that provocatively. Ellen distorted her eyebrows unpleasantly.

“……..you siblings, really know how to make me unhappy.------it can’t be

helped if I say this now but, I knew I should have killed him at that time.

Seriously, Ike’s hobby is hard to swallow”

After Ellen said that, Mana suspiciously brought her eyebrows closer.

“……….that time? What are you talking about?”

“Well, who knows”

“Fuun……….oh well. Anyway, I am not letting you through”

After saying that, Mana pointed the sword equipped in her right hand

towards Ellen.

Ellen made a small snort before pointing <Caledfwlch> towards Mana in

retaliation.

Part 2

This happened after Yoshino successfully made Shidou fall for her. After the

<Bandersnatch> assault and Shidou’s Ougi - Roaring Flash Blast

Waveeeeee!, the Spirits were having a temporary meeting at the corner of

the indoor pool facility which was about to collapse any moment.

“----Okay, there were disturbance mixed in but, Yoshino’s conquering is

finished. 4 people left!”

The same time Kotori said that, the other Spirits [Oooh] got pumped up.

“Umu, things are not moving as planned”

“But, the problem starts here. If we look it from another view, we still have

half left. On top of that, Ellen Mathers is here up at the sky. I had the group

handle her so we can’t expect any more support”

“Uuun, that’s a problem too but, before even that------“

And, Miku placed one finger on her chin while looking around.

“Well you know, it was a southern country paradise just now but, it’s like a

war zone now………………how are we going to make darling go doki in this

location”

What she said was correct. The special facility <Ratatoskr> went through all

the trouble just to prepare, was messed up by DEM’s attack. It’s not even

time to make Shidou fall for them since they are in a situation where the

walls might collapse anytime soon.

But, Kotori swung her head to tell them not to worry.

“Relax. I prepared something regarding that matter.-----I initiated the

second sequence just now so, the preparations should be done”

“Second…….? What’s that?”

Tohka asked her dubiously. No, Tohka wasn’t the only one. The other Spirits

looked like they had no clue.

“Watch”

After Kotori placed her right hand finger into her mouth, she

*Piiiiiiiiii*whistled.

In response, the building wall *Gogogo*…..started vibrating.

Everyone, thought the attack from above started again but, they

immediately noticed that this was different compared to just now. They

looked around relentlessly and were making shocked expressions. That’s

only natural. That’s because, the wall showing the blue sky changed shape,

the exposed metallic roots of the palm trees which gave off a slight southern

atmosphere converted, the pool water was flushed out at an amazing rate,

and the whole ground was sinking like it was an elevator.

“Oo………Ooooooh!?”

When the ground moved down a few meters, the ceiling was covered with a

big cover like a shelter; the artificial sandy beach split in half and a dark red

carpet appeared.

That was not all. With a loud mechanical sound, lights were deployed, tables

popped up from the ground, and luxurious ornaments were constructed

one after another. Next, extra’s dressed in tuxedos and night dresses

scattered about; some played instruments, some started serving tables, and

some started flourishing the place with high-social topics.

Without even waiting for a few minutes, they managed to transform the

place into a refined party hall.

“Wh-what is this!?”

“Hoiuuu……..! This is quite luxurious. And this me mecha feeling………this is

quite exciting!”

“Consent. Transforming equals romance”

“……….Uwa, amazing. It’s done without my ability too………..”

Each of the Spirits described their surprise.

But, it’s still not enough. The girls’ swimsuits don’t match such a luxurious

place at all.

“-----dressing team!”

“Yes, on your service!”

After Kotori shouted, several female staffs ran towards the Spirits.

“Wh-what are you doing!?”

“Come come, over here if you may”

The female staffs guided the spirits to the other side of the curtain which

was set up at the edge of the hall.

And after a few minutes later.

The Spirits in beautiful dresses appeared in the party hall, at the same time

the curtains opened.

“Ooh, this!”

“Is……Amazing”

“Kyaaa! Everyone looks wonderful!”

Miku twisted her hips around while looking at everyone’s appearance.

Kotori extended her hands and announced loudly.

“Behold, the second sequence to conquer Shidou, the elegant style! Okay

everyone; let’s make Shidou fall for us by showing him our elegant

conduct!”

Everyone thrust their fist up [Ooooh!] in response. That doesn’t fall in the

category of lady-like but, what’s important now is the feeling to save

Shidou, not detailed mannerism.

Kotori placed her hands on her hips and puffed her chest out.

“Alright. -----okay then, I’ll show you the example now”

When Kotori waved her skirt around, everyone nodded.

Origami gave a thumb up to Kotori to send her off.

“Good luck”

“Yeah, thanks”

After Kotori walked away while her heels were making knocking sounds on

the ground, she then stood in front of Shidou.

“Oh, you finally made your appearance huh, Miss Commander”

Shidou said that while making a smile. Incidentally, Shidou changed into a

stylish tuxedo from his swimsuit just like the girls.

Kotori folded her arms and *Fuun* snorted.

“Yes. I thought I would make Shidou feel flustered in an unfamiliar party

hall”

“Oh well well”

Shidou shrugged his shoulders in jest.

“So, what’s Kotori going to do?”

He then said that amusingly. Kotori released her folded arms before raising

her right hand over her head *pachin!* and made a good snap with her

fingers.

To match with that, the musicians playing their instruments inside the hall,

changed the music to something graceful.

The organization members, who were talking happily nearby, naturally

formed pairs before starting to dance with the tune. Shidou opened his eyes

wide in surprise when he saw this movie-like scene which was suddenly

deployed.

“Ooh, now that’s amazing. It really looks like a party”

His eyes were glittering innocently when he said that. Kotori sighed tiredly

while looking at that Shidou.

“Shidou”

“Hn, what?”

“-------Don’t tell me you’re going to make the girl say it in this situation?”

After saying that with half her eyes opened, Shidou immediately made a

small smile as if he found out what Kotori meant.

“Aah……true”

He then apologized to Kotori while bringing out his hand.

“Hey there beautiful. Would you mind a dance?”

“Good boy”

After Kotori answered him with her lips relaxed, she bends her hips and

took Shidou’s hands.

They then looked at each other before walking towards the dance area

where everyone was.

But, right when both of them reached the middle of the hall, Shidou talked

to her.

“Well then Kotori. I have one problem even though we are here”

“What”

“Onii-chan has no skills in dancing”

“……………”

Well, that’s only normal. Although Shidou’s words and actions turned quite

play-boyish because of his fever and Reiryoku, there’s no way he could

perform something he does not know.

“It’s okay. I already predicted that.------first off, lightly hold my right hand

with your left hand”

“Like this?”

“Yes. Once you are done, wrap our right hand around my hip”

“I get it”

After Shidou nodded honestly, he extended his right hand to Kotori’s hips.

However, *poke**poke**poke*………..his fingers walked on Kotori’s back

when he did that.

“Kyaa!?”

“Ahaha, that’s a nice scream there, Kotori”

“…………why you”

Kotori glared at Shidou with her cheeks blushed. Shidou made a carefree

laughed.

“Sorry sorry, don’t glare at me like that”

“……….Seriously. I will lead you so, move according to the tune”

“Aaah, I understand”

Shidou made a small nod and performed steps while feelings Kotori’s

movements with the music.

“Yes, do it rhythmical. One, two, three, one two, three”

“Oi oi, don’t be so pushy. I understand how much you want to stick onto me

though”

“Wh-who is! Forget it, come on, pick up the pace!”

Kotori shouted with her face getting red…………well, it’s true that she had to

stick her body onto Shidou’s body because it’s one of the method to make

Shidou go doki but-------it was somewhat embarrassing since he pointed it

out like that.

However, being nervous will be a mistake for her. Kotori acted calm and

pushed her body further onto him. And while feeling each other breath,

they danced around the hall matching with the elegant tune.

Although it was awkward at first, Shidou’s steps were starting to get more

daring; maybe because he got familiar with it after a few minutes in.

“Yes yes, you learn fast don’t you”

“Haha, I guess it’s because my teachers good?”

“Yeah, you’re right. There’s no other thinkable reason”

“You’re not very humble huh”

While joking like that, Shidou looked at Kotori’s eyes.

“But, I am a little surprised. When did you learn to do this?”

“It’s lady etiquette. Boys make astonishing results after 3 days………..people

say that but, don’t you think that goes for females too?”

After saying that, Kotori looked up as to provoke Shidou.

“Even I won’t stay a child forever.-------dilly dally any longer and I will leave

you in the dust you know, Onii-chan”

“--------“

Shidou gulped with wide eyes after hearing Kotori’s words.

And after a while, he snorted as if he couldn’t handle not laughing.

“Hahaha…….i give up. I never would have imagined Kotori would make me

go doki with such a method”

“Those are some nerve pulling words…………wait, Shidou, what did you

say?”

Kotori unintentionally stopped dancing and asked again. Right now, Shidou

said something she could not allow to miss.

And at the same time, a fanfare echoed from the incam after a moment later.

It’s not like she did not heard it but, after Shidou made a leisure smile, he

repeated what he said without trying to play it off.

“Aah………..you got me good. As expected from Kotori, I lost”

“……………!”

Kotori was the one who blushed after hearing Shidou’s words while he

looked right at her eyes without looking embarrassed at all. Kotori looked

away a little and puffed up her chest to act tough.

“Fu-fuun………..this is normal. Making Shidou fall for me is the same as

twisting a baby’s hand to me”

“Aah, I never would have imagined Kotori to make such a mature approach.

I lost to that gap. When Kotori asked me for a dance, I thought you would

make me go doki by exposing the back print of your panties at me after

your skirt fully flips up when you make an exaggerated fall during the

middle of the dance”

“That’s just too stupid as expected!? Rather, I don’t wear panties with back

prints anymore!?”

“I know. it’s a joke, a joke”

Kotori said that while laughing. Kotori [……Seriously] sighed.

“…………Anyway, you going doki, means I cleared the condition right?”

“Yeah, of course.------I look forwards to midnight, my Cinderella”

After saying that, Shidou kissed the back of Kotori’s hand. Kotori turned

shocked after that sudden action.

“Wha……..Wha……….!?”

“Hn? Isn’t your face red. Hey adult Kotori-san, I thought you won’t get

bewildered from something like this?”

“-------Th-that’s so obvious! This is just a greeting, a greeting!”

After Kotori showed off to make herself look tough, Shidou distorted his lips

amusingly.

“You got that right. Now that I think about it, we kissed twice if we count 5

years ago and this year’s June. You won’t get panicked from something this

small after all that huh”

“O-of course. We…..done it twice already”

Even while saying that, Kotori felt her face turning really hot. Twice. Yes.

Kotori and Shidou kissed twice before. Of course, Kotori remembers it

clearly but now that she is conscious about this reality again, her heart

started to beat regardless of her own will.

After Shidou smiled as if he saw through Kotori’s heartbeat, he brought his

lips closer to Kotori’s ears and whispered to her.

“Kotori will not stay a kid forever so……..let’s make it an adult kiss for the

third time”

“Heh?”

Kotori’s voice overturned when she heard the words he said with his breath

tingling her ears.

“A-adult……kissh……?”

Her gears stopped turning after being so shocked. ----Kiss. An adult kiss. No,

she knows that word in the end. She knows the knowledge on what it was

pointed to. But, the kiss she performed 5 years ago and of course half a year

ago, was in the end just their lips touching so somewhere inside Kotori’s

heart, she does not mind what if the kiss she had to give to Shidou by

midnight was different from usual. -----But, eh, he’s joking, what the heck is

that. Adult, seriously no way. No, I am not against it but I am just not

mentally prepared, how do I put this-----

“-----Hamu”

Right when Kotori’s head overheated, Shidou’s lips suddenly chomped on

Kotori’s ears.

“Uhyaaaa!?”

She jumped up at the sudden act. Shidou *ahaha* laughed maybe because

he saw her do that.

“I guess, it’s still too early for you huh Kotori?”

“Gu-guu……….”

Kotori glared at Shidou angrily but somewhat in a relieved manner.

Part 3

“Kotori-san! You’ve done it!”

After Miku welcomed her energetically, Kotori, who has still not recovered

from her blushing cheeks, replied back and slightly raised her hand.

“……..Yeah, somehow”

“Umu, you’re amazing Kotori!”

“It was….a beautiful dance”

“Hnn……Thank you”

Kotori slightly nodded to all the Spirits who spoke. But,

“It’s unfair that Kotori is the only one getting the adult kiss”

The moment Origami said that with her quiet voice, Kotori’s face boiled up

as if she recalled back the exchange she had with Shidou just now.

“Li-like I said! That’s only Shidou saying what he wants………!”

“Okay okay, please calm down. More importantly, can I be next?”

Miku placed her hands on Kotori’s shoulder to calm her down (Incidentally,

she was breathing wildly at her neck and was patting Kotori’s butt) and said

that before, Kotori [Hiii] gasped while her eyes popped out.

“………..Y-yes, of course I don’t mind”

“Thank you very much. Therefore, I have something I want to try out so can

I order these?”

After Miku placed her hands beside her mouth as if to have a secret

conversation, Kotori brought her ears closer to her while being oddly

cautious. While talking with a soft voice, she explained the contents to her.

“………..and that’s the gist of it”

“I see, I understand. I will get onto it so give a signal when the times come

for it”

“Okay! Thank you very much”

After Miku said that energetically she *fuuu* blew into Kotori‘s ears.

“Ahyaaaa!?”

“Ufufu, well then everyone, I will be going now”

“Wh-why you……!”

Kotori shouted loudly while pressing her ear. Miku placed her hands on her

mouth gracefully and made a big bow, she then winked back before walking

towards Shidou.

“-----Heeyy, thank you for picking me, darling. It is your Miku”

Once Miku reached Shidou, she waved her skirt by turning around before

taking a pose while literally bouncing her breast. Well, it’s not like she was

specifically picked but, this is just for the atmosphere.

“Oh, it’s Miku next huh. haha, that looks good on you”

“Thank you very much. Ufufu, darling you look wonderful. But, don’t you

think you will look good in a night dress like mine? Can you still use

Natsumi-san’s power again? How about matching with me after turning into

Shiori-san!”

“Aah, I think I can still do it. But, should I really transform? If Shiori wears

that, I think Miku will get a nosebleed fountain right?”

Shidou talked to her in a forced manner. Miku twisted her body in reflex.

“Heck. Yeah! Even If I am close to death from blood lose, I will not regret

anything if the last moment I see was Shiori-san in a daring night dress! One

with a lot of back exposure!”

After Miku made that passionate speech while her eyes were glowing,

Shidou pat her head to calm Miku down.

“Haha, that’s an honor. But, I will be murdered by your friends if we lose the

amazing idol from something like that. No----before that, if Miku really died

from something like that, I might have no choice to follow you while crying”

“Darling…….! You thought so far for me………!”

Miku covered her mouth while her eyes turned moist after hearing Shidou’s

words.

“……….this happens every time but, what are you doing Miku?”

Right when Miku was deep in her emotions, she could hear a voice coming

from the incam on her right ear. Miku turned away from Shidou before

replying back with a soft voice.

“What should I do Kotori-san? To me, being buried together with darling is

totally okay with me but, I want darling to have a proper fulfilled life. But, I

don’t know if my blood capillaries can handle the impact from Shiorisan………..”

“Like I said, what are you talking about!? I told you we are running out

of time!”

Kotori screeched loudly. Miku scratched her cheeks.

“Hah, oh yeah. Sorry Kotori-san. It’s just that, I somehow got all worked up

after talking to a sweet version of darling”

“Seriously………..get a hold of yourself. Are you really okay?”

“Yes, leave it to me. Okay, it’s time I get this going”

After Miku said that with a soft voice, she made a smile while looking back

at Shidou.

“So with that done, darling. We finally got some time together but since we

are rushing, I will be making you fall for me now”

“Heee? That’s quite some confidence you have there. What are you going to

do?”

Shidou said that amusingly. After Mikue opened her mouth while turning

around, she let out her loud voice.

“----Okay everyone, I am counting on you all!”

Responding to Miku’s order, the musicians with their instruments, females

in glamourous outfits who were all standing by at the corner of the hall all

appeared on the stage and a glowing silver stand mike was placed on the

middle of the stage.

After Miku confirmed all that, she went up the stage while her heels were

making knocking sound, before standing in front of the mike.

Instantly, the lights in the hall dim down and a spot light was set on Miku.

To match with that, the gallery in the hall all *Waaa* lived up, and clapped

their hands.

Miku waited until the applause ended before looking behind and send a

signal to the musicians there.

The musicians then made small nods and started playing jazz.

Miku moved her body according to the music’s rhythm and with the stand

mike in her hands-----she started singing with a sweet voice.

“-------------------------“

It’s a tune with her traits. It’s an English song. This song is totally different

from the songs Miku sing as an idol.

However, the feelings put into it was no different.------it’s a very very sweet

and lovely song.

Yes. The moment Miku told Shidou that she was going to make him fall for

her, there was only one method for this.

After Miku took the mike off the stand, she strides about the stage with a

captivating walk style; she then walked over to a female who was dancing

according to the tune and while stroking the female’s chin, she looked

towards Shidou provocatively.

And to match with that, a spot light hit Shidou. Shidou opened his eyes wide

in surprise.

“Fufuu”

After Miku smiled charmingly, she got off the stage in tune with the band

and walked towards Shidou. The spot light pouring onto Miku and the back

dancers moved accordingly with her.

And once Miku reached Shidou, she took his hands and leaded him around.

Shidou looked a little surprise but, he left his body to Miku’s hands.

The place they are heading, was a grand sofa prepared from who knows

where. It’s as if that corner was the only spot with the air of a bar.

After Miku made Shidou sat there, she gently sat on his thighs and while

performing a princess carry, she continued singing the song.

“----------------, ----------“ Her sweet breath was mixed into the tune while she

stroke Shidou’s cheeks, and poked his nose with her finger. Shidou *haha*

made a wry smile.

Adding on, beautiful female back dancers appeared behind and beside the

cautious Shidou. When this is viewed from the sidelines, it looks like a

prodigal prince of somewhere, indulging himself in his luxury.

Nonetheless, the one most intoxicated in this situation was definitely Miku.

While singing on her beloved Shidou’s lap, she’s being surrounded by

beautiful women. This situation was so dreamy for her so much that it’s not

surprising if she wakes up on her bed an instantly later.

“--------------“

Miku sang in a tune sexier than before------

While pointing at Shidou lastly, [Bam] she made a gesture as if she shot

through his heart.

“Darling-----I love you”

After saying that, she winked at him.

“…………..!”

At the same time Shidou opened his eyes wide-------the fanfare echoed in

Miku’s right ear.

“Ufufu, looks you went doki huh, Darling”

“Aah……………apparently so. It’s quite frustrating that I was dropped in a

front approach”

Shidou said that with a wry smile. Miku smiled while touching Shidou’s lips

with her finer.

“That is not true. -----did you forget? I am an onee-san older than darling by

1 year you know? I think its fine to get bullied once in a while”

After Miku said that, Shidou raised his hands to show that he lost while

making a small smile.

Part 4

“……………….Haa”

In a place a little further away from Shidou and Miku, the Spirits who were

all looking at the event all regained their composure a beat later.

“That…..was kind of amazing”

“U-umu…………”

“……….oh yeah, Miku was a singer. I thought she was a monster that would

kidnap girls who stayed up late at night”

“Natsumi-san……………”

Yoshino made a wry smile after hearing Natsumi’s words. Kotori coughed to

change the topic.

“Well, this result in 6 people clears with this. Only 2 left. Next off------“

“--------I’ll go”

Origami raised her hands before Kotori could finish her sentence. Kotori

then made a somewhat worried face for some reason.

“Origami huh……….un, I don’t have rejections but, please be very careful

okay? The [Doki] Shidou mentioned is pointing towards the actions, words

and cute gestures of a female so, it’s different from suddenly stripping down

and attacking him okay?”

“I know”

“Also, the kiss will still be done midnight in the end okay? it will be a

problem if Shidou runs away so don’t try to steal his lips forcefully okay?”

“It’s okay”

“Just because kissing is not an option, don’t do anything higher level than a

kiss okay?”

“…………………”

“Why the silence there!?”

“Light joke”

“……uuunnn”

Origami turned the hem of her dress and walked over to Shidou after

ignoring Kotori who was still making a difficult face.

Half-way through, she passed by Miku, who looked reluctant to leave

Shidou.

“Oh my?”

After Miku looked over to Origami, “Good luck” she wished Origami by

winking and waving her hand to her.

“……………”

The moment they pass by, *Pan*she hit Miku’s hand as if to receive a baton.

Maybe Miku was happy because of that; she [Kyaaaa!] twisted her body on

the spot.

After Origami walked forward while hearing that voice behind her, she

reached Shidou who was siting leisurely on the sofa.

“------Shidou”

“Aah, it’s Origami. Heee, this is the first time seeing you like that”

Once Origami talked to him, Shidou in his tuxedo replied back while smiling.

This is a little wonderful. Shidou gives off a strong neuter image but, he

looks a little more adult than usual because of the formal outfit. It gives off

an elegant and gentle feel. It’s like a bewitching wolf who tricks pure girls.

Origami half-consciously crawled her right hand on her legs. A small digital

camera was placed inside the leg holder equipped on her right leg. Of

course, it’s already powered. With Origami’s skill, she is able to make a save

data of Shidou within an instant.

However.

“………..uh?”

Origami frowned her eyebrows. The right hand extending towards her legs

was suddenly stopped.

Instantly, she thought it was the work of Kotori who followed her, or a

<Ratatoskr> member but----she’s wrong. The hand that grabbed Origami’s

right wrist was none other than Origami’s own left hand.

Yes. It’s as if it was trying to stop Origami’s actions.

“This is…………”

She made a dubious face at this weird development. But, she immediately

understood the reason. A thought that don’t approve Origami actions

appeared inside her and was disturbing Origami.

How should this be put into words; it feels like an angel and evil was

debating inside her head.

Naturally it’s not visible but, the image of a small angel with Origami face

flapping her wings appeared in front of Origami, deployed inside her mind.

(Shidou’s tuxedo appearance is valuable. I must take a photo no matter

what happens)

In response; a devil with Origami’s face (Her hair is long for some reason)

appeared.

(N-no you can’t. Everyone’s hard work will be lost if he feel disgusted here!)

(It’s okay. Shidou is kind. He won’t get disgusted from something this small)

(That might be true but, that’s not what I meant……..!)

It’s not like she did not feel that the roles of the angel and devil was

reversed for some reason but, anyways, both Origamis was causing a fierce

war inside her head.

Maybe Shidou noticed Origami in such a state; he titled his head in wonder.

“Origami? What are you doing?”

“………..Nothing”

She lost the opportunity. After Origami relaxed her hands, she made a small

sigh.

Her right hand reached to the camera once more right when her left hand

relaxed. It was stopped again. As expected, if the opponent is herself, it’s

impossible to look for a chance.

“Origami……………?”

“It’s okay. There’s no problem”

After replying to Shidou who asked her again, Origami moved to Shidou’s

side.

“Can I sit?”

“Aah, of course”

After saying that, Shidou urged her to his side. Origami sat down in a very

ladylike manner. And while looking at Shidou, she showed a gesture of

holding a glass.

“Since we are here, want a shot?”

“Ahh, that sounds good”

Shidou nodded to Origami’s suggestion and raised his hands. The

<Ratatoskr> member disguised as a waiter quickly walked over and bowed

down respectfully.

“Sorry for the wait”

“I want a toast but, is there something we can drink here? ----Origami, want

to make a request?”

“Dom Perignon”

After Origami said that without changing her expression, Kotori’s voice

echoed from the incam in her right ear.

“…………..hey wait, that’s wine!........seriously, change it to chanmery”

Chanmery is a non-alcohol carbonated drink similar to champagne. Her

words probably reached the waiter’s Incam too. After Kotori made that

order in a tired manner, [Understood] the waiter said that before leaving.

Immediately after, the waiter came back with the chanberry and wine glass

on a silver tray.

“Here you go”

The waiter said that after pouring chanberry in the glass which was lined

up on the table. The liquid poured in the glass with a splash gave off a

mysterious glow because of the glow poured down by the chandelier.

“Okay, Origami”

Shidou extended his hands to the glass.

“Wait Shidou, what’s that?”

But, Origami pointed forward as if to interrupt him.

“Hn? Where?”

“That. A little higher”

While saying that, Origami put her right hand into her pocket. She then took

out the small powder medicine pack she snuck in before trying to pour its

content into Shidou’s glass with eye blinding speed.

However, at that moment, the angel and demon appeared inside Origami’s

head like just now. Her left hand pinched the edge of the powder medicine

pack top stop her right hand.

(Let go. This is a good chance. An adult kiss might be possible if he drinks it)

(Calm down! Kotori-chan just told you not to go for the kiss right!?)

(Of course, I remember. I don’t plan on looking away from those words)

(Then----)

(It should be safe if Shidou’s the one who wants it)

(What kind of medicine is thisssssssssssss!?)

Together with the devil’s scream, her left hand’s resistance got stronger.

The thin pack holding the medicine ripped apart because of the strong force

from both side, causing the white powder to scatter about.

“Kuh-----“

“So, what’s wrong, Origami? I don’t see anything in particular?”

“……………my mistake”

After Origami said that while grinding her teeth, Shidou made a wondering

face and looked over to Origami.

“Rare events do happen sometimes I guess………..well whatever. Anyway,

let’s toast”

“………….”

After Origami nodded, she took the glass together with Shidou.

“Toast”

“Toast”

They made the glass kissed each other, and that resulted in a beautiful

clank.

Once Origami placed the edge of the glass to her mouth, she drank a sip of

chanmery. The comfortable feel of carbonated air stimulated her throat.

Toasting with Shidou, and drinking it. That action itself can make children

drinks become very sweet quickly.

Nonetheless, she can’t deny the fact her plan was messed up badly.

Originally, Shidou will turn into a full moon werewolf without even waiting

for a few minutes after drinking this and would be lust for Origami’s body

but………….i cwant do hwelp it if I fwailed8. Anyway, nwext9……….

“……………….”

A weird feeling attacked Origami causing her view to sway, and that made

her lean against Shidou.

“Hn, what’s wrong Origami”

“…….i think……I am…….dwunk10”

“Oi oi, from chanmery?”

Shidou made a wry smile. It’s true that Origami drank a non-alcohol drink.

There’s no way she would get drunk. Unless something weird is mixed in----

--

“…………………..”

At that moment, Origami recalled something. She recalled swinging the

secret medicine around, right before the toast. Perhaps at that time, a small

amount of the medicine entered Origami’s glass.

8

I can’t help it if I failed.

9

Next.

10 Drunk.

---This is bad. This is very bad. Even though I have to make Shidou fall for

me; if I am in this state then………

“………..Itsuka-kuuun………..”

Within her hazy consciousness, Origami heard her voice come out from her

own mouth.

“Hn? What’s up, Origami, that’s sudden”

“In the first place…….It’s also your fault Itsuka-kun for being

yourself……….why are you so cool? This just……….gives me no choice but to

want to take a photo of you…….”

“Origami? What are you saying……….?”

Shidou said that with a dubious tone but, Origami could not help it at all

anymore. She continued firing her words like a broken dam.

“………….whenever I think of Itsuka-kun, it just feels fluffy inside of

me……….but it feels a little painful at the same time------what is this

called……..”

Origami continued on while snuggling against Shidou.

“Itsuka-kun ………I love……..i really love you. I love you so much……………that

I am helpless against it”

“……Origami----“

Shidou called Origami’s name in a meek voice.

---She thought she heard the fanfare in her right ear at the same time but,

the current Origami has no idea what that meant at all.

Part 5

The transporter from DEM industries which departed from Neryl Island,

was maintaining a high altitude while steadily flying.

Although they fell into emergency state after being attacked by a spirit

during the departure from the island, there weren’t any problems after that.

If this goes on, they will probably reach the designated place according to

the planned time.

When the pilot Knox was thinking that, there was a sudden response from

the communicator.

“-----this is control room. DF0806, please respond”

“Yes, this is DF0806”

“Please change in the flight route. Make a detour from E139”

“Change in flight route?”

While saying that, Knox and his co-pilot Burton looked at each other.

“Did something happen?”

“There’s a battle between executive chief Mathers and an enemy

presumed to be a Wizard from <Ratatoskr> in the initial route. This is

only a safety precaution but, we can’t allow any mistakes”

Knox made a dubious face after hearing the contact from the control room.

“Battle? In a place like this?”

“Yes. I will repeat again”

Knox asked the reason why a battle occurred at that spot but, the control

room did not reply and urged him. The person in contact was not a flexible

one.

“Understood. DF0806 will change the planned flight route; heading to

designated spot with a detour at point E139”

After Knox answered, the control room [Over and out] said that before

cutting the communication.

“……………..and, you’ve heard it. We are changing path”

“Understood……………..but even so, this is quite cautious. Even though it’s a

battle between Wizards, there’s no way it would happen in such a high

altitude. As expected, our cargo is a special one huh”

Burton shrug his shoulders while saying that.

It’s not like Knox could not understand that but he quietly swung his head.

“That might be the biggest reason…………but that is not all. You heard him.

The one fighting is Mathers. A shooting war between normal wizards is one

thing, but that Onee-chan coming out is a whole different story. We might

get skewered by a lance from below if we fly nicely”

“N-no way man……….”

---and. The moment Burton said that while sweating profusely.

Crazy values were shown in the cockpit’s meter, and the alarm was ringing.

Next off, as if something is tracking them, the transporter was shaking

vigorously.

“! What……is this”

“N-no way, is it missed shots from executive chief Mathers……….!?”

“Idiot, there’s no way it would reach this far! Before that……this is not a

Wizard. It’s Reiha readings!”

“Wha……..!?”

Burton’s face turned pale after hearing Knox’s words.

It was only natural. This transporter was just attacked by a Spirit some time

before.

“Does this mean that <Nightmare> caught up………!?”

“No………..this is a different reading than before. And this……….!?”

Knox gasped before turning behind.

Of course, there’s only the seat Knox is leaning against, and the cockpit wall.

But, what lies behind there is the cargo; inside there, [Material A] with

several layers of seal placed should be there.

At that moment, Burton noticed something. The vibration just now was not

an impact from outside, and it’s something coming from inside the craft.

“Impossible-----!? Thi-this is a joke!? [Material A] should be in complete

hibernation……..!”

“That should be the case. But this…………….”

After saying that, Knox noticed a weird value shown on the meters.

There were 2 Reiha readings there.

1, was this transporter. Another one------is the point they were ordered by

the control room to detour at. And both of them were giving off a reading as

if they were resonating.

Part 6

“……….Alright!”

Kotori, who was looking at Shidou and Origami from afar, made a guts pose

after seeing the results of the event.

“I was worried there for a bit but, I guess this is what you call fortunate

error. Unlike her usual extreme approaches; by showing her affections to

him directly, a good gap was formed I guess”

While giving an explanation, Kotori folded her arms and nodded.

Incidentally, Origami immediately regained and continued approaching

Shidou as if nothing happened so, Kotori ordered a organization member to

make her leave.

“This makes it 7 of us. But we can’t lower our guard. We must do it as fast as

possible------“

And, Kotori stopped her words there.

---She probably noticed this. That, Tohka who was together with Kotori

looking at Shidou’s, was making a somewhat complexed face.

“Tohka? What’s wrong?”

“……………!”

Tohka twitched her shoulders when Kotori called out to her.

“Mu……No, how should I put this………when I heard Origami said she loved

Shidou, this part here feels kind of tight……………”

While saying that, she pressed her chest.

“I know saving Shidou is top priority. There’s not time to worry about

something like this. But……….”

Tohka messed her hair up because she was feeling troubled.

“I understand…………but don’t understand. Why would I feel this way? Even

though I have to hurry up and save Shidou now, these hindering thoughts

won’t leave my head”

“Tohka…………”

After Kotori exhaled, she patted on Tohka’s head.

“…………..Sorry. Please bear with it now. But, those feelings aren’t hindering

thoughts. It’s extremely proper----valuable and precious”

“Really?”

“Yes. And most likely, we will have such feelings sooner or later. That’s why-

----I want to save Shidou”

“Muuu……….i wonder about that”

She feels like she gets it and don’t get it at the same time. But, Tohka

nodded.

She oddly feels satisfied with it after hearing that the feeling of wanting to

save Shidou is connected to [That].

Maybe she felt relieved after seeing Tohka; Kotori [Alright] tapped on

Tohka’s back.

“Okay, you’re last, Tohka. Are you ready?”

“………umu! Leave it to me!”

After Tohka answered energetically, she started jogging over to the sofa

Shidou was sitting on.

But, since she’s wearing a dress and shoe she is not used to, her leg’s

tangled up half-way causing her to have a great fall.

“Uguh!”

“Tohk!? Are you okay!?”

“Mu……No problem!”

After Tohka answered that while waving her hands, she stood up while

rubbing her face which took a hit with a thud before starting to walk in a

calmer pace.

However, Tohka did not head straight to Shidou and took a small detour.

It was the long table lined against the wall of the hall. Over there was a

mountain sized feast that even looking at it looks fun.

“Ooo………this is amazing!”

And apparently, all these food can be eaten as much as she wants. After

Tohka’s eyes glittered, she prepared 2 of the biggest plate and started to

place any food that looks delicious on it in a non-reserved manner.

Kotori’s voice echoed through the Incam at that moment.

“Hey Tohka, what are you doing? It’s okay to eat but, Shidou is more

important………..”

“Umu, I know. It’s okay”

After Tohka replied back, she took the 2 mountain filled plates and walked

to Shidou.

She then built 2 mountains on the table in front of the sofa.

“Oo Tohka----wait, this is amazing.

Shidou opened his eyes wide after witnessing that. Tohka [Umu!] puffed her

chest.

“Shidou, you did not eat since morning right? I thought you would be

hungry. So-----“

Right when she reached there in her sentence, Tohka’s stomach

*Gyuuu*………grumbled.

“Mu…………..”

Her cheeks blushed unintentionally, after hearing her stomach grumble at

precise timing.

Maybe because he heard that; Shidou made a surprised face before------

starting to laugh unbearably.

“Fu…..haha, ahahahaha”

“Mu-muu……..you’re wrong. It’s true that I am hungry but, that’s not

everything………”

“Fu, fufufu……no, I get it. Thanks, Tohka”

Shidou said that while wiping the teardrop squeezed out of his eyes. He

then *pon* pointed to the seat beside him.

“I am as hungry as you too. So let’s eat. They food is already ready after all”

“………umu!”

After Tohka made a big nod, she sat beside Shidou.

“Okay then, let’s dig in”

“Umu, let’s-----Ah, stop right there Shidou!”

“Hn? What’s up Tohka?”

Shidou tilted his head after hearing Tohka suddenly shout.

After Tohka took her fork, she poked the roast beef and brought it to

Shidou.

“Okay Shidou, [Ahhn]”

“Oi oi, that’s full marks for service. ------well, I guess I’ll accept it”

After saying that, Shidou opened his mouth wide and chomped down at the

roast beef Tohka presented to him.

“How’s it! Is it delicious!?”

“Hn…….yeah, it’s delicious. Naturally the food itself is tasty and by having

Tohka feeding it to me makes its tastiness increase a hundred fold”

“Mu, Re-really? It’s kind of embarrassing”

While making an embarrassed smile, Tohka poked a dish once more with

her fork. But at that moment, Shidou stopped Tohka.

“Wait a second. It’s my turn now. Here, Ahhn”

After Shidou said that, he presented her a roast beef just like what Tohka

did just now.

“Oooh! I’ll be taking it then. Ahhn………..”

After Tohka said that, she closed her eyes waiting for Shidou’s fork, and

opened her mouth widely.

---but.

“Mu……..?”

Tohka brought her eyebrows suspiciously. Food was not brought to Tohka’s

mouth even after a few seconds-----and instead, she could hear *clank*

something falling on the table.

Next, Kotori’s panicked voice could be heard from the Incam worn on her

right ears.

“Tohka! Open your eyes!”

“Mu……..?”

She opened her eyes after being told.

Tohka gasped at the same time she did that.

Shidou who was there a few seconds ago, was no longer there.

But, Tohka immediately noticed it. Shidou did not disappear and was

crouching down around her feet while pressing his chest.

“Shi-Shidou! Are you okay! What’s going on!?”

“Gu------aaa-aAaaAAAAaaAAAAhhhhh!”

It happened the moment Tohka called Shidou in a panicked manner. Right

after she thought Shidou shouted painfully, his body started glowing----and

caused a strong impact wave.

“Kuh………..!?”

She was easily blown away because she could not brace herself from the

sudden turn of events. Tohka rolled behind a few meters before finally

stopping after hitting a table.

“Tohka! Are you okay!?”

“Mu………..aah, it’s Kotori. I am okay. More importantly, how’s Shidou!”

She lifted her face while rubbing her painful head.

She then confirmed Shidou who was floating while coated in dense

Reiryoku. His outfit turned back to his school uniform from the tuxedo.

Most likely, it’s because his transformation ability was released.

“Shidou!”

Even though she shouted-----there was no reply. It’s not like was asleep but,

he was emotionless, and his blank gaze was looking at the empty sky.

“Kotori, what is happening to Shidou!”

“I don’t know………! There was supposed to be some time left to the time

limit!”

After Kotori and Tohka replied to each other with shouts, a change occurred

to the Shidou floating in front of them.

The mass of Reiryoku lurking around Shidou increased in brightness before,

that light covered the whole facility.

“Shidou--------“

Faster than Tohka was able to finish her sentence.

---The beam released by Shidou, pierced through the ceiling of the party

hall.
