It rained for the entire night.
The next morning, the sky cleared up after the rain. The air was quite fresh.
"The Soul World organization has appeared."
Seiji received a phone call from Summer Night and received the information.
The Soul World members had appeared last night to negotiate with the various factions. They used the Spirit World as a bargaining chip to request that the Awakened under their control be forgiven for the Midnight incident. They also requested that the various factions hand over the Awakened under their control and work together to create a brand new organization called "Soul Society"!
Soul Society would have members from the Soul World organization as the higher-ups. The Awakened and the various factions would be its members. They would work together to develop the Spirit World and protect and raise the Awakened.
More than half of the top-level factions had agreed to this request! This meant that Soul World would be forgiven for their crimes and that Soul Society would be established.
Soul Society … this name reminded Seiji of a famous manga from his previous life. Could it be that there would be something like the Gotei Thirteen in the future?
Seiji was quite curious about the negotiation process. Obtaining the recognition of a top-level faction definitely wasn't something that could be accomplished simply by talking. The Soul World members had definitely displayed great power.
Protecting and raising the Awakened … he hoped that they were sincere. Compared to the development of the Spirit World, Seiji was more concerned about this.
No matter what, a new organization that received much attention was about to appear.
Only time would tell whether it would be a short-lived organization or become a powerful new faction.
…
Lunch break.
Seiji, Mika, Chiaki, and Kaori ate lunch together.
Seiji told Mika and Chiaki about what happened last night. Of course, he wisely left out the part where they rubbed their chests.
"Seigo, I can help out when fighting against demons as well," Mika told him after learning about the situation.
"I'll call for you if I need your power," Seiji responded.
"Mika is a Spiritual Ability user as well?" Kaori was astonished.
"Yeah … although I'm not that strong, I still want to help out." Mika smiled.
"Thank you." Kaori was moved.
"No need to be so polite. We're friends."
"How dazzling. I want to say something like that as well." Chiaki sighed. "It's a pity that I'm not a Spiritual Ability user … Why haven't my powers awakened yet? Mika has already learned how to transform, so it's about time for me to get an ability as well. Otherwise, I'll lose a lot of scenes. "
"You have plenty of scenes, so there's no need to worry."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I'm a novelist!" Seiji put on a serious expression. "An interesting character like you will bring joy to the readers as soon as you appear, so there will definitely be scenes."
"Am I actually a comedic character!?" Chiaki's expression was filled with astonishment.
"You only realized it now!?" Seiji was also surprised.
"I think that all of you are hilarious characters," Mika retorted. "What do you think, Kaori?"
"I … think that Chiaki and Seigo are both very charismatic." Kaori could only say that.
"You can just say that they are all very strange."
"Objection! I'm not a comedic character at all. I should be an important supporting female character, or one of the main female characters! "Chiaki had a serious tone of voice.
"You were originally a main female character, but your ability to be funny is so outstanding that it overshadows everything else. There's no way to change it anymore." Seiji sighed.
"No! Please try harder, Origin-sama! "
"Just give up. Actually, this isn't bad either. A comedic character that only appears in daily stories is a rather stable position. You can rest assured and continue until the end. "
"I don't want to die like this! I want to perform well in non-daily stories, and it's best if I perform well! I'm begging you, Origin-sama!! "
"That's really difficult. To tell you the truth, you already have too much of a presence. If you Awaken to an ability as well, you'll steal too much of the scene, so that's no good. "
"How could it be like this!!" Chiaki received a major impact.
"Wakaba -san, you're truly outstanding, but too outstanding … I'm truly sorry." Seiji had a gentle expression as he spoke in a sad tone. "Please understand that we're both in pain."
"Origin-sama …"
The two of them looked deeply into each other's eyes. Their exchange of emotions seemed to transcend dimensions.
Next to them, Mika and Kaori silently watched this scene as they ate their lunchboxes.
Today's lunch break was quite enjoyable as well.
…
Later that night, Seiji and Summer Night drank tea and chatted.
"Are you free tomorrow?" Seiji asked in a seemingly casual manner after finishing his tea.
Summer Night noticed something and became nervous.
"I'm free … what's the matter?"
"Would you like to go out and have some fun together?"
Seiji did his best not to let his nervousness show on his face as he invited her on a date.
Although he had hugged and kissed her before, this was the first time he had ever asked her on a date!
Grand Mistress's face flushed slightly red as her expectation came true.
"Sure," she agreed in a soft voice.
Seiji clenched his fists and smiled happily. "Do you have anywhere you want to go?"
Something flashed in Summer Night's eyes.
"I want to go to an amusement park."
An amusement park … Seiji was rather surprised, but he didn't ask why. If she wanted to go, then go.
And so, they agreed to go to the famous Empire World amusement park.
After leaving the study, he was filled with anticipation as he imagined tomorrow's fun. Suddenly, the purple-haired girl's figure flashed in his mind.
Genji … was the first girl to ask him out on a date with her if he was free tomorrow.
What would things be like now if he hadn't been interrupted that time?
The moment this thought appeared in his mind, Seiji shook his head and cast it aside.
Then, he saw Little Shi.
"Little Shi, I'm going on a date with Summer Night tomorrow." He didn't hesitate to tell her about his date.
Shika Kagura's expression didn't change at all upon hearing this, as if she had expected it.
"What time and where?" she asked lightly.
Seiji answered honestly.
Shika Kagura nodded in understanding and didn't say anything else as he walked away.
Although this scene was quite similar to that time, it wouldn't be the same this time. Seiji watched her leave, feeling certain … no, he believed her.
His trust in her was correct.
Shika Kagura didn't intend to do anything. She only asked about the time and place out of curiosity.
She was happy that her adopted brother trusted her. Her mouth arced upwards slightly as she walked away.
However, this smile only lasted for three seconds.
Although Shika Kagura was happy that Seiji believed in her, she still wasn't happy about him going out on a date with Wanhua Summer Night.
She simply accepted it, not with a smile.
She didn't intend to do anything because she shouldn't, but … just because she shouldn't, did that mean she couldn't?
A strange light flashed in her eyes before she calmed down.
She wouldn't get in his way anymore.
But she couldn't do nothing at all.
That was why … she would watch.
Just as she told Wanhua Summer Night at the time, she would continue watching.
Emperor World Amusement Park … it was bound to be a lively place. If she followed him there, it would probably bring misfortune to others.
But Shika Kagura wanted to do this, even if it was meaningless and might even affect others.
This was doubtlessly a selfish action, but she wanted it … she couldn't help but feel the desire in her heart.
The name of her desire was Haruta Seiji.
