Wanhua Summer Night didn't understand … or perhaps she didn't want to understand right now.
Right now, she had things to do, and didn't have the time to think about such subtle things.
After she instantly regained her senses, she turned around and took out her cell phone, dialing a number as she walked over to the window.
Seiji watched her leave.
In that case, the situation wouldn't develop like last time, would it?
The scene of Shika Kagura dying and Shuho Hitaka going berserk before loading flashed through his mind …
Right now, Wanhua Summer Night would instruct Shuho Hitaka to pay attention to the main body of the Snow Girl Spirit-branded Retainer that they intercepted, and she would also investigate Shika Kagura's current actions. Then, she would finally confirm that his "inference" was correct!
The Yin Yang Master actually used such a sinister and vicious scheme … if it succeeded, it would be the equivalent of sacrificing his own Spirit-branded Retainer in order to destroy the defense's formation … at the expense of all the ordinary students and teachers at the school. Doing something like this was worthy of being called an evil person.
Seiji was furious at this person he had never met before.
He didn't know much about Yin Yang Masters, but judging from Summer Night's reaction, this was probably a rare evil in the "other side."
Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that if something that affected all the students and teachers at such a large school was considered "normal" in the "other side," then the existence of Yin Yang Masters would have been impossible to conceal, and Sakura Island wouldn't be in such a state! That was what Seiji believed.
At any rate, it wasn't "normal" for the Yin Yang Master to do something like this.
Why, and why, did he have to do something like this?
Seiji didn't know, nor did he want to know, nor did he need to know.
He was a student at Yuen Hwa Secondary School, and all his friends were here.
The moment that bastard used such a vicious scheme, he was destined to be his enemy.
Besides, he personally witnessed the pitiful scene of this evil person's scheme succeeding.
Shika Kagura's body and hands were icy cold as he died, and his last words were pure white …
Shuho Hitaka, who wholeheartedly fought for Summer Night, ended up in such an ugly and crazy state …
If he didn't have the ability to load, he might have had to kill Hitaka with his own hands, and then suffer a terrible and tragic ending with all the teachers and students in the school.
The person who caused all of this was the mysterious Yin Yang Master!
For himself and his friends, he … Haruta Seiji, must kill that bastard!!
No, it should be said that he must help Wanhua Summer Night kill that guy.
Very good, target confirmed.
Seiji's eyes flashed with a scorching light.
Somewhere outside the school.
Shuho Hitaka received a call from Grand Mistress.
Cell phones could still be used before the spell that would interfere with communication was activated. Although there were more reliable methods of communication than cell phones, in order to conserve Mana, he wouldn't use them unless it was a special occasion … such as during a battle.
She was on the phone with Summer Night. After listening to the latter's words, she thought about it and felt a chill.
If that was really the case, then this plot was truly vicious!
Hitaka couldn't help but imagine what would happen to her if she fell for this plot … What would happen to all the teachers and students in the school, and what would happen to Grand Mistress …
She couldn't help but tremble slightly.
It was too frightening.
Fortunately, Grand Mistress thought of this in time and reminded her.
Otherwise, it was very likely that she would step into a terrifying trap … if this conspiracy really existed.
Although she wasn't sure yet, Hitaka had a feeling that Grand Mistress's "guess" was correct!
Her instincts told her so.
She would have to be careful when intercepting that Snow Girl Spirit-branded Retainer!
The red-haired girl, who had been filled with fighting spirit, calmed down considerably after this phone call.
"Snow Girl … Reaper's Curse …"
In the student council room.
Wanhua Summer Night sent someone to investigate Shika Kagura's whereabouts after talking to Shuho Hitaka.
After making the arrangements, she put away her cell phone and turned around to face Seiji again.
Summer Night felt a ripple in her heart when she saw his face, but she forced herself to ignore it.
"I've done everything." She smiled at him.
Seiji nodded and smiled as well.
"That's good … No matter what the results of your investigation into Shika Kagura are, please let me know."
"Sure, if you want to know."
"Okay … I'll be going now."
Seiji turned around and left since he was done here.
Natsuya blinked as she watched Seiji walk out of the student council room. She slowly rubbed her chest.
"Haruta-kun …"
…
Nighttime.
Just like last time, it was raining.
Just like last time, Seiji walked to the park with an umbrella.
He looked up at the dark night sky, feeling worried.
"I don't think … it'll happen again."
Before school ended, Summer Night called him to inform him of the results of her investigation.
As expected, he couldn't find Shika Kagura anywhere. On the surface, she was a third-year middle school girl who was on leave from school.
Oh, to be more precise, it was as Seiji expected.
And for Summer Night, this result increased the possibility of Seiji's "guess" being true, but it wasn't completely confirmed yet.
But now, it should be confirmed … if Shuho Hitaka did a good job.
Seiji could only trust the red-haired girl.
He stood by the swing and waited silently.
The rain continued to fall.
Then, finally …
* Boom!! *
Just like last time … no, this time, the sound was quieter!
A silver-gray figure descended from the sky, stepping on the cracked ground.
He was half-kneeling.
He didn't collapse completely.
And …
He didn't have a mask!
"Shika Kagura!"
The moment he saw her face clearly, Seiji shouted.
The girl's face was no longer covered by the white mask from last time. Her beautiful face was clearly revealed!
What did this mean?
It meant that Shuho Hitaka had removed her mask!
Hitaka had been warned by Summer Night, and he had removed Shika Kagura's mask. Once he confirmed the latter's identity, he wouldn't be so heavy-handed!
Then, Shika Kagura was now …
Hearing the shout, the girl, who was slightly dazed due to the battle just now, turned her head.
She saw the tall boy who was looking at her.
On his handsome face, there was no shock, astonishment, or even fear that she had expected to see.
Instead, it was a complicated expression, worry, and relief …
Why?
Shika Kagura, who was still in a daze, felt puzzled.
But then, her puzzlement was washed away.
Because the boy quickly ran to her side, dropped his umbrella, half-knelt, and hugged her!
She was being hugged.
For Shika Kagura, this was something that she hadn't experienced for a long time … It was something that only happened in her vague childhood memory.
The feeling in that blurry memory suddenly became clear.
It was firm, warm, and clinging to him …
"Wonderful …"
A gentle voice sounded in her ear.
The sound of rain falling seemed to fade away, and the entire world became quiet. Only this gentle voice remained.
"You … came …"
His voice was filled with relief and satisfaction. He was satisfied that she came here, stood here, and existed here.
'Wonderful.
'You're here.'
The distant memory overlapped with this moment.
Shika Kagura felt her body being warmed, and her soul was also wrapped by something warm.
Tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably.
In her body and soul, the cold, lonely, and black-and-white existence that was sealed in black and white reappeared.
Along with the tears.
The voice that had been sealed for a long time sounded from the deepest part.
'I'm right here.
You found me … I'm so happy … '
