Nagumo-kun. About the black-robed man..."
Apparently, that's the subject. Anguish oozed out from Aiko's words.
"Are you going to confirm his identity? Even if I find him, you're telling me to not kill him, right?"
"... Yes. It's necessary to confirm his identity. That's... if it's an unreasonable thing for Nagumo-kun..."
"For the time being, I'll just bring him here."
"Eh?"
"I'll bring the black robe to sensei. Sensei is thinking as a teacher... so I'll do just that."
"Nagumo-kun... thank you very much."
Aiko was a little surprised because of the unexpected cooperation from Hajime. Hajime didn't even turn around even now, and thinking Hajime had a lot to think about, she decided to receive his goodwill. She muttered I am powerless as she sighed secretly, then Aiko said her gratitude with a bitter smile.
It looked like Aiko's talk was over, and this time Tio moved forward and called Hajime.
"Fumu, I wonder if it's okay. This one mas-... gohonh! matter to talk... is a request, will you hear it?"
"? ... Tio huh"
"Th-Thou, don't tell me that this one's existence was forgotten... haa haa, there's also something like this..."
Because it was an unfamiliar voice, Hajime inadvertently looked over his shoulder, and there was black clothes with golden embroidery which resembled a kimono and splendidly slipped down, white and smooth shoulders together with an enchanting valley, followed by the beautiful leg which peeped from the cut from the knee; a black-haired, golden-eyed beautiful woman. For a moment, his eyes seemed dubious and he remembered with "Aa, now that you mention" then called her name. Obviously, Tio whose existence was forgotten was far from getting angry, she was blushing and her breathing became rough. Her "something like this" was unknown, but it'd be better to not asked her about it.
"Nnh, nnh! That's, after this battle end and thou sent Will back, art thou going to continue to travel?"
"Aa, that's so."
"Fumu, this one's request is that... this one want to accompany thou..."
"I refuse."
"... Haa haa. I-Immediate answer just as expected. As expected of mas-...kohonh! Of course it's not for free! I'll call thou "Master" from now own, and dedicated all of this one to thee! Body and mind, all of them! How is it?"
"Just return, rather just return into the ground."
While spreading her arms, Tio declared to become Hajime slave with an expression of ecstasy, and Hajime, who looked at her as if looking at a filth, immediately casted her away. Tio's body shook again. Her cheek became rose-colored. No matter who saw her, they'd thought of her as a pervert. Even the surrounding people were taken aback. Especially Yue who had strong yearning and respect towards Ryuujin tribe, her noh mask-like expression crumbled with all of her feelings.
