Seirei Gensouki's
Chapter 103: Second Day of Afternoon Feast, After pt2
The interior of the hall became noisy due to the sudden visit of unwelcome visitors.
"THEY'RE HERE!"
「THEY ARE HERE TOO!」
Two groups of intruders emerged from the two halves.
One group came from the door, and another group from the window, and then with a quick movement they stormed the inside of the hall.
They wore black clothes on their bodies and white masks to hide their faces.
「UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!」
In the blink of an eye, the nobles around him panicked.
Waves like chaos continued to spread even more widely.
「DO NOT COME!」
"RUN IT!"
The inside of the hall had fallen apart as everyone tried to be the first to escape.
"QUIET DOWN!"
「PLEASE LET US PASS THE P WE WILL TURN THEM INTRUDER!」
Even the guard knights patrolling inside the hall could not move well as they were pushed back by the crowd.
Although those knights had undergone training in preparation for the emergency case, it was not the same for many nobles in that place.
Of course among them there are some who have received combat training, some of them are even recognized for their military service, but they are a minority.
Clearly, since the group that caused the panic was irrational, it was inevitable that they would lose the initiative to deal with the emergency.
First of all it was already abnormal for such a group to be able to pass through the castle defenses and march to the place without anyone realizing it beforehand.
Because it seems that they have taken action against the abnormal situation due to the tight defense outside the venue.
His presence was tightly controlled, so they exerted a minimum number of knights within the hall for the sake of appearance.
When it came to that, it was natural to think that there were collaborators of bullies among the invited guests.
But now is not the time to find the culprit.
「Move as previously planned. Now spread！ 」
The person who looked like the leader of the group gave the order, the bully then spread into the group of two.
It seems they are trying to commit some kind of outrageous crime.
Their deft movements show that they have been trained for this before.
Therefore, no doubt could be felt from their actions.
They just pushed through the instantaneous gap created due to chaos—
They had to act quickly, it was only a matter of time before the guard knights in that place regained their freedom of movement and then turned around to intercept the intruder.
Every second counts for this bully and may be the difference between a win or a defeat.
The intruder ran through the interior of the hall with more nimble movements and better strength than normal people had.
「HYIIIIII!」
The crowd of nobles was neatly separated which helped the intruder move.
The knights pushed through the waves of nobles while the bullies continued to advance smoothly through the path prepared for them.
There were some knights trying to disturb the bullies hiding among the crowd but,
Section 2
「GA!」
They fell to the ground because the bullies stabbed their chests with knives.
Although there were knights who tried to make a move at their own discretion, it was useless because the individual combat abilities of the bully were high. That is the current disaster.
The knights were overwhelmed as the two groups of intruders could perfectly coordinate against the single knight.
Moreover, the one-on-one fighting abilities of the bullies and the knights were more or less the same.
Although some knights had fallen to the ground, the intruder would advance unhindered if left as it was.
By the way, everyone, excluding the guards of the Galwark kingdom place, was forbidden from bringing their weapons into the hall.
Even the weapons carried by the defense knights were only a stick and a knife. It was because they remembered that they only needed to catch criminals. So it was all on the grounds of not inflicting casualties, because in the middle of the crowd something that was too long would be difficult to swing and would most likely injure those around him.
Against the intruder who had received enough training to penetrate the crowd, the defensive side was clearly in a very disadvantageous position.
Intruders make the best use of the small time they have, until the knights can overcome their movements, to run towards their target with all their strength.
They're headed—,
「O-OY, They're headed our way!」
Hiroaki shouted with a shrill voice.
That's right, the intruder gathered where Rio and the others were.
（Is it because the one they're aiming for is between us?）
Rio guessed their intentions at that moment.
Nevertheless, the list of people who could be their target was simply too large.
It could be the royalty of these powerful countries, or the hero, Hiroaki, or maybe the CEO of the Rikka company and the daughter of the powerful nobleman, Liselotte.
Perhaps because he was always secretly monitoring the tendencies of others, he could set targets without any hestitation.
「A-What is this？ What do the defense knights do?」
Michael said that in a voice that carried a hint of hysteria.
「O-Onii-sama」
Charlotte, who was terrified, hugged Michael.
The intruder approached from all directions as far as the eye could see.
「Kuh！ They come from every direction！ Circle shape!」
The five knights hiding in the surroundings were acting as royal secret guards forming a circle.
Even with a single glance one could tell that the number of intruders was more than 10 people.
The number of tapping sides is clearly less.
A color of impatience appeared on the faces of the knights.
Section 3
「Everyone, please gather here behind our circle！ You must not in any way move from there!」
One of the knights said so and urged everyone to take cover behind their siege.
Lilyana, who was having a conversation with Hiroaki, did not notice that the three noble daughters of Saint Stellar kingdom were getting closer. [TLC: We're not sure if the author wants a third-person perspective or if it's Lilyana who's not aware of it. ]
「Here, Lilyana-sama」
「Y-Ya」
The princesses of Saint Stellar kingdom nobles called out to her in a calm voice and then brought Lilyana to the center of the siege of the knights.
The four Michael, Charlotte, Liselotte, and Rio were already there.
「I-It's really a joke！ How could this happen. So many of them came at once！ 」
On the other hand, Hiroaki stood still with a pale face while shouting.
The approaching intruders clearly moved with ill intentions.
Hiroaki has never had true combat training since coming to this world, only mock battles, and sometimes, mock battles, things can be different from mock battles where people can become as moody as they want to be.
It was not that he practiced some kind of martial arts in Japan, nor had he ever been attacked by criminals.
So it could be said, this was his first real fight.
It might be strange if he did not experience fear, even though he gained this special power as a hero, considering all the approaching opponents wielded edged weapons.
「Hi-Hiroaki-sama. Do not obstruct the knights by standing still. Please, quickly, take cover behind them 」
Hiroaki remained standing still even though Flora called out her name in a panic.
His head turned and his feet trembled in fear.
There was no way he could hear Flora's words.
「Liselotte-sama, please go behind the knights along with the other royalties. I'll go help the knights 」
Rio told Liselotte, stepping out while saying those words in a calm voice.
Although he felt that not wanting to protect the royalties was the right thing to do in this situation, he did not know what he would say to them later if he were to escape alone now.
Especially if that intruder ever breached the defensive line set by the knights, Rio still had to fight against them.
Thus, if they managed to break through the defensive line, the situation that developed into a free battle for all would be unavoidable.
In that case the situation might be better if he voluntarily went to the front line.
That's judgment.
「G-Godspeed!」
Liselotte told behind Rio.
For him, who was basically witnessing Rio's combat power, joining the defensive ranks was very convincing.
「Let's use『 Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier) 』for you」 [TLC: Atleast I can translate it as I want in LN ..]
The daughters of the royal noble Saint Stellar said so.
「Let me help you too」
Section 4
Liselotte announced her intentions without hatred.
『Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier)』 as the name suggests is a magic that will protect a person from external attacks by attaching a target within the magical power barrier.
Its survival ability depends on the covered area and the amount of magical power loaded, the consumption of magical power for continuous use is large, making it difficult to use other magic.
But he only needed to hold back until additional knights came as reinforcement, so this magic was the most appropriate for the current situation.
When spreading a broad and thin barrier, it would be a simple barricade.
「HIROAKI-SAMA！ FLORA PRINCESSES！ COME HERE FAST!」
Liselotte shouted at them seeing that they were late in reacting.
Hiroaki's body trembled.
When he glanced back, he saw people gathering together to take cover,
「R-RUN, RUN!」
Hiroaki turned around and started running while shouting loudly.
「KYAAAAA!」
Hiroaki ran to Flora, who then lost balance.
Meanwhile, the fight had already started right by his side—
☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★
「I came to help. Since coordination will be difficult, I will attack anyone I can 」
Rio said that briefly after sneaking into the open amongst the knights forming a circle protecting the royalty.
Thanks to Rio joining the formation now they can cover an area more than ever.
"Thank you!"
The two knights next to Rio showed happy expressions on their faces.
「I'll keep both of them coming to me」
Right after saying that, Rio stepped forward and closed the distance between him and the two intruders.
Of course he did not forget to secretly improve his physical abilities with spirit arts.
「Bow!」 [TLC: The weapon you use in archery]
One of the two intruders running in the group shouted.
They did not have any equipment that approached resembling a bow.
（They're pretending？ Or have they prepared weapons？ No――）
The next moment, the two intruders formed a front-rearline formation――,
「Fuh!」
The robber in front swung his knife with his right hand.
But, Rio calmly brushed the lunge with his left hand.
And just like that, with a movement like flowing, he pushed a hard punch towards his opponent's stomach with his right hand.
Section 5
「GA ……………………. KAH 」
An involuntary scream leaked from the man's mouth before his body fell.
At the same time, the next thief made his appearance from behind the first one, and rushed to attack.
He might act as a backup to make sure that Rio dies. [KLT: Killed/dead .. same thing]
Perhaps the so-called 「Bow」 is a pre-decided command as a kind of signal.
The other man rushed over from behind the fallen man sending another surprise attack at Rio.
He lunged from Rio blind spot firmly holding his knife while aiming at his heart.
If it hit the mainland, it meant instant death for Rio, there would be no way out of it.
But, Rio's pace quickly to the side.
The lungs sent by the thief barely grazed his clothes.
「WHA!」
Under the mask, a surprised voice came out.
Rio, who was now standing next to the robber, quickly grabbed the bully's arm, leaving no room to break free.
And that was how Rio pulled the thief forward, gained control over their entire body, and then finished it by suddenly turning the thief's body *. [TL*: If you are confused, this throws aikido] [TLC: This sentence will give me nightmares ..]
Following him with elbows hitting the robbers is still spinning in the air,
「GAH …………………. 」
The thief landed on the floor like a sack of potatoes, and he then lost his consciousness.
It had only been a few seconds since Rio started fighting.
After taking a glance to confirm that his opponent lost consciousness, Rio noticed the knight who was still fighting nearby.
It seemed that some reinforcements had come but, there were still people fighting the intruder alone.
The knight to Rio's left was also one of them.
Although it seemed like he could face two intruders alone, there was a knife lodged in his right arm.
（I have to protect him ya）
After thinking about it for a moment, Rio decided to help her, but the moment he decided so, Rio decided,
「Kyaa」
Behind the knight whose right hand was pierced, Flora fell because Hiroaki hit her.
Hiroaki was unaware that he met Flora and continued towards the last line of defense where Liselotte and the noble girls of Saint Stellar kingdom were gathered.
「Kuh, I'm at my limit！ Make a protective wall. 『Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier)』 」
Right after Hiroaki entered, the noble girls of Saint Stellar and Liselotte activated 『Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier)』.
The barrier of magical power develops as if to protect Hiroaki and the royalties who take refuge.
「CEH」
Clicking their lips, the intruders who managed to cross the first line of defense, the knights, were only one step away from the nobles.
Although the barrier was not so difficult to break given how big it was, it would still take some time.
The pursuing knights must have come at them during that time.
On the other hand, at that moment,
Section 6
「GUH」
Behind them, Flora's cry could be heard for a moment, and then the consciousness of the wounded knight was snatched away.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the thief threw away the wounded knight.
「KYAA」
The knight hit Flora and the two fell to the floor.
Even the three intruders who stopped right before 『Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier)』 turned around and headed for Flora.
（Maybe they narrowed their target to her for the time being）
Even including the intruder pushing the wounded knight, the four intruders must have gotten closer to the helpless Flora.
The person closest to him was the knight driven by the thief.
Rio ran towards the thief just for a moment after strengthening his legs with spirit arts.
「!!!!!」
Blocked by Rio when he was just one step away, the male thief was stunned.
Rio destroyed the posture of the man by confiscating his clothes at that moment.
And then threw the thief with all his might, aiming at a thief who was behind and to his right.
The man was enchanted by the unexpected force, and violently hit the approaching body of the thief.
「GUH」
Unable to stop the unexpected impact, the two intruders hit the magical barrier of Liselotte and the others were being thrown.
Rio quickly turned around and then faced towards the two intruders who were attacking Flora from his left side.
While stomping on the ground violently, he directly entered the gap between Flora and the two bullies.
「WE DON'T GET IT」
When one person said that, the intruder split up to cover Rio on both sides.
That's their strategy. Whichever one fights first with Rio, the other will get Flora while he is busy fighting.
「I WILL BE THE WOMAN HE IS. WOR DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM. PLEASE DEFEAT ONE OF THEM FOR THE TIME BEING！ 」
The fallen knight along with Flora shouted so.
Perhaps he was really planning to raise his body to stop one of the thieves.
It was the soul of an amazing knight.
Although Rio did not have such a soul in his heart, he admired him.
He believed even when thinking that he did not want to die at the same time.
「……」
Although Liselotte feelings were troubled over whether she should use attack magic, thus cancelling the Magic Power Barrier Magic Magic (Magic Barrier) Magic 』, if she missed her shot, others might get involved as well.
The chances of losing are high because the opponent is fast.
And the intruders will come to them soon if Liselotte leaves a gap for them.
Section 7
「Liselotte-sama, please save『 Barrier Magic of Magical Power (Magic Barrier) 』up」
After shouting that, Rio rushed towards one of the intruders.
That worry then disappeared from Liselotte face.
「Fu ~ h」
Perhaps because he felt like Flora's bodyguard had resigned, the thief aiming at him made a stinging sound as if celebrating his success.
But, the next moment,
「WHA?」
Rio vanished from the thief's field of vision, which surprised him.
The truth is, Rio moved so fast that he almost touched the ground. To that negligent thief, it was as if the figure of Rios had disappeared.
At that moment, Rio grabbed the thief from his feet with a powerful force.
And just like that, the thief couldn't help but be thrown towards the other thieves by using spirit arts using Rio
「HAH」
Perhaps because he had seen how other bullies were thrown, the targeted thief easily avoided a collision with his partner.
During that time, Rio had already reached the robber to stop his plan.
「CEH」
When a decentralized plan to target Flora is thwarted, the thief clicks his tongue.
The two were now facing each other at a distance of several steps.
「It seems your plan has failed. It seems like more than half of your comrades were also arrested, how about handing yourself over now？ 」
Rio asked in a cold tone.
「WHAT HAS BEEN WAITING FOR US WHEN WE FAILED IN OUR DUTY IS DEATH!」
The robber charged towards Rio as he shouted those words.
He was without a doubt prepared for his honorable death.
Three knife stabs came nonstop at him.
Chest, arm, belly.
Stabbing the air while making a "hyuu" sound".
Rio's hands danced so fast and gleamingly fended off all those attacks.
「KUH」
A voice of pain came out from the man's mouth.
Even though he used every bit of his strength for the attack earlier, he could sense that Rio still had some space to fend it off.
But, for a moment, Rio's line of sight moved as he scanned the surroundings.
（Still young yes！ You're too careless kid!）
Section 8
Thieves will not miss this opportunity.
At that moment, he closed their distance and then stabbed into Rio's chest. [TL: Liselotte is panting at the moment]
But
It was as if Rio had been expecting an attack coming from behind all this time, and he hit the man's fist with a knife.
「WHA!」
The man became stunned by the situation.
And just like that, Rio grabbed and twisted the man's arm which forced him to let go of his knife.
Rio went to, somehow, take control of his opponent and then, in the next moment, drop him to the floor.
Rio kept pressing his opponent, though,
"This is the end"
And tell him about the end of the battle.
「BULLSHIT」
Nevertheless, the robber was still fighting hard.
But she fell asleep immediately after Rio cut her neck.
Rio stood up slowly.
（…………. . Next is, it seems like it's okay）
Judging from his surroundings, Rio came to the conclusion that he already did not have the stage to perform.
The reinforcing knights gathered, most of the surrounding intruders had fallen to the floor.
After all this, no royalties were injured.
The only thing left is that this country gets information from the captured intruders.
「GAH …………………. . AAah！ 」
Suddenly, the thief Rio put to bed was in pain.
「Oys. Are you all right? "
Although he called out to the thief frantically, the thief simply clamped his chest, immediately after which his body twitched bit by bit, and then completely stopped moving.
Rio examined the man but, his breathing had already stopped, his pupils had already canceled, even his heart was no longer beating.
It was only a possibility but, they were already dead.
Wh why?
He had already made sure that his attack would not cause any fatal injuries.
When it came to that, it was natural for him to think that it might be caused by some sort of internal or external factor.
Rio quickly tore off the man's clothes with the knife that was on the floor.
Afterwards, he discovered there were intricate magic equations carved on the area around the man's chest.
「Is this ..............................The magic formula ……………. ？ 」
Magic formula―― Although there are some unknown even among them, it is magic that even research makes brands as evil, forbidden magic, however, the effect is too dangerous.
He didn't even know if the magic equation carved into the man's chest was really a magic formula.
But, even if this effect was set as a magic formula, it wouldn't be strange if it was dangerous magic.
By the way, even though users who carved magic equations on their bodies could voluntarily summon magic, those magic equations were engraved in their flesh.
In cases where one invokes magic by engraving magic equations on the surface of the skin as tattoos, it cannot be categorized as magic.
Section 9
「…………」
After glancing at the corpse of the thief, Rio looked at his surroundings while making a small sigh.
It seemed that somehow the other bullies were also suffering, the battle had ended.
The knights stared dumbfoundedly at the sudden death of the intruder.
「Uhm, are you okay？ Are you hurt?」
Rio heard Flora's voice right beside him
Looks like he used 『Recovery Magic (Heal)』 on the injured knight.
Before he knew it, Liselotte had come next to him, becoming wary around him as if to protect the helpless Flora.
「Ya, if the injury is this high .........」.
The knight replied respectfully.
He never thought that he would personally receive the healing magic performed by nobles.
It was only natural that he was nervous.
「I'm fine. Thank you very much"
The male knight stood up straight and then said his gratitude with a tense expression.
「I'm happy then ....」
Flora sighed in relief.
After confirming the knight's recovery had ended, Liselotte immediately rushed to Rio.
「Haruto-sama. Are you okay? "
He already knew that he was safe by looking at the battle but, Liselotte couldn't help but ask about her condition.
「Yes, I'm not injured as you see」
Rio shrugged his shoulders while answering.
「I'm happy then. The robber there is ………………？ 」
「Yes, he's dead. He had a magical equation carved directly into his chest. Maybe some kind of spell 」
So Rio relayed the results of his own investigation.
"Is that so……"
Liselotte showed a depressed face.
After which, his expression turned serious and,
Section 10
「You saved me, Haruto-sama. If you are not here maybe not just Flora-sama, but maybe even Michele-sama, Charlotte-sama, and Lilyana-sama will also be injured by those 」
He was deeply bowing to Rio.
「It's nothing to feel grateful. I am just fulfilling my duty as a guard and a man to protect my partner, right？ 」
Rio's cheeks slowly loosened as he said so.
Liselotte looked at him with a slightly confused expression and,
「I'm really glad Haruto-sama is my partner」 [TL: Riajuu just exploded !!!]
Saying that in return with a pleased expression.
「U-Uhm, my apologies！ You got in trouble because I ………………. . 」
Flora stood up slowly and then leaned over to apologize to him.
「Such thing is ――
Just when Rio was about to reply to her.
「Are you okay, Flora?」
Hiroaki had already come and suddenly grabbed onto Flora's shoulder.
Flora's body trembled with "a twitch".
「Y-Yes. Because Haruto-sama and the knight-sama are protecting me ………. 」
「From that, how did you fall？ I'm worried, you know?」
Hiroaki said that as if scolding him.
「M-my apologies. Me, always a klutz …………. 」
Maybe because she thought it was a criticism, Flora felt sad.
「A ~ h, well ........... I'm glad you're okay」
Hiroaki said it in a slightly awkward tone.
Maybe because he was at least aware of the fact that he escaped after losing himself.
During their little charade, Rio had already gone to confirm the death of the other bullies.
"AH……"
Flora who failed to say her thanks let out a voice like she disappeared.
「I'll help also」
Rio also joined the work by mixing together with the knights who gathered the surrendered intruders into one place.
The number of intruders beaten by Rio was six, a wounded knight defeated one, and there seemed to be seven others totaling 14 captured intruders.
「You too, Liselotte, come here. There may be other intruders around. Safe if you come to back 」
Hiroaki called out to Liselotte who, up close, was carefully watching the work of Rio and the knights.
Section 11
「No, I ……………. . 」
Saying so, Liselotte glanced at Rio.
But, Hiroaki snatched his hand and,
「Listen. Don't be too unreasonable 」
Saying that while pulling it from the arm.
Maybe because he couldn't hold back his strength,
「-」
Liselotte grimaced slightly due to the mild pain.
He couldn't resist even if he tried because Hiroaki was a man.
Hiroaki did not see any changes in Liselotte face.
「Y-Ya」
As a result, Liselotte had no choice but to reluctantly follow Hiroaki backwards.
「Tapi …………………. That's really a terrible catching skill, isn't it. He flooded six trained intruders with his bare hands ………………. 」
The knight whose arm was injured solemnly spoke of it.
Six people called nearly half the bullies.
「Hahaha, of course, trying to protect him when we lack skills will only hinder him」
「She played a very big role in this. This all happened because you received such a wound, right 」
「In order for a person to have such skills at his age, they not only need talent but also focus on training, kan」
The knights who saw Rio's battle praised Rio's exploits in the battle with a disastrous atmosphere.
Although they were all young, they were still older than Rio.
Even so, their tone of voice was full of respect for him.
After that, to that place,
「Haruto-kun!」
A girl calling Rio's name could be heard around him.
No other girl called Rio with "-kun" attached to his name.
On the contrary, there was no one but a girl who called out to him with such a suffix.
The owner of that particular voice came in front of him faster than he could turn,
「Satsuki-sama, you are fine, kan」
Rio said that with a soft tone.
Satsuki's approaching Rio with an anxious expression.
「I wasn't attacked once. So I'm fine. Instead, it's about you, are you okay, Haruto-kun？ No injuries？ 」
Satsuki asked with an anxious expression while timidly touching Rio's body. [TL: Wait a minute, I don't remember him building Satsuki's flag, so how could it suddenly stabilize?]
Section 12
「As you can see, I really did not hurt」
「I understand, thank God」
Satsuki sighed in relief while still grasping Rio's two hands.
It was as if he was limping in one go.
Rio looked at her with his eyes wide open while wondering if he was really worried about her.
「Yeah, please don't worry me too much」
"My apology"
Rio smiled wryly while apologizing to her.
「Hahaha, and then his daughter appeared, ya」
And then, one of the knights said that when he saw their exchange from the side.
The surrounding knights also started laughing as if agreeing to that statement.
「K-You're wrong！ K-We're not like that!」
Satsuki denied it with a red face of beef.
Perhaps because the tense thread was also completely broken, the atmosphere became completely calm which made one not think that the attacker appeared just a moment ago.
Other than the defense knights, perhaps it was the effect of no one from the titled nobles and nobles present receiving such famous wounds from the assailants.
Or maybe because the intruder only targeted royalties, there were no casualties other than the attacker.
But, it was also a fact that there would be casualties if they could not contain the attacker.
「Uhm, then who are they ......................?」
When the situation calmed down, Satsuki asked that question while glancing at the corpses of the bullies lying on the floor, or rather it was unavoidable that it came before him with an expression as if he was going to flee at any moment.
As he removed the mask from the figure that fell on the ground, under the mask was an expression of suffering that made him recall himself like pouring cold water on his head.
「Unfortunately I do not know …………. 」
Rio shook his head lightly.
"I saw………… . . 」
Satsuki's face grimaced and it seemed like she was almost crying at any moment.
It was only natural that he saw more than ten bodies falling on the floor.
This was the first time in his life to see this many fresh corpses.
Maybe because she became scared, Satsuki grasped Rio's sleeves tightly.
"Can we go"
Rio blocked her gaze and gently said those words to her.
「Uhn …………………. Sorry Can you lend me your arm for a while?
Satsuki asked him with a pale face.
If he became a hero, he would probably get used to the corpse-filled scenery soon.
Something like that was natural, and Satsuki also understood that.
But, for a 17-year-old girl like her who lives a peaceful life in Japan, it was too much of her request from understanding to suddenly being forced to endure it.
Because imagination and reality are very different things.
Section 13
"Yes, that"
Rio nodded without saying anything and gently extended his arm.
"Thank you"
Satsuki gently grabbed Rio's arm.
「Satsuki-senpai」
While walking with his head lowered, a voice called out Satsuki's name from in front of them.
Satsuki slowly raised her face.
The one standing there was Sendou Takahisa.
The frightened-looking Lilyana quietly stood by his side.
He might have come to confirm Lilyana's safety first after separating from Satsuki.
「Uhm, are you okay …………………. Takahisa-kun's？ Your face looks pale 」
"I'm fine . Uhm, he …………………. . So that's the problem？ 」
Takahisa asked with a pale face.
But, he couldn't help but ask.
Expression like that.
「Uhn」
Satsuki nodded in response.
"I saw……………… . 」
Takahisa's eyes trembled slightly.
What kind of emotions are inside his chest.
It was not something Rio could understand.
「It is with great pleasure to meet you. My name is Sendou Takahisa 」
Takahisa lowered his head as he introduced himself.
「My name is Haruto. It's nice to meet you"
Rio also replied to Takahisa's words with his simple introduction.
Right after, they were told that the evening party was interrupted.
Here is the announcement that tomorrow is the last day of the evening party.
Just like that with a simple introduction, Rio and Takahisa's first meeting ended.
