“C-Collapseeeeeeeeed!?”
I was shocked at this bad news about my Kouhai. Seriously!? Was Koneko-chan all right?
“Asia can treat injuries, but she can’t do anything about physical strength. Overworking in particular certainly hurts one’s physical strength and has adverse effects. Because the time left until the game is limited, that’s dangerous.”
“U-Umm, if overworking is no good, what about me…? Aren’t I close to death by being chased around by a dragon monster every day…?”
I asked this while pointing at myself. No matter how you think about it, it’s inhumane!
“Ah, it’s fine for you. Something of this extent isn’t enough for that.”
You said so readily! Is that so!? How is it fine for me!? It was just too much to handle, and my tears wouldn’t stop!
“Now then, we should go. Ise, I was told to take you back just this once. You’ll return to the Gremory annex only once. Tannin, he’ll be going back for a little while. I’ll return him tomorrow morning.”
“Yeah, then I’ll return to my territory for now.”
So said sensei and Tannin-ossan.
Eh? I can temporarily come down from the mountain?
“Heh? Sensei, from whom did the order for me to return come from? Buchou?”
“—from her mother.”
Buchou’s mother…What business does she have with me?
