Cerberus barked at Hiro. It was possible that the wolf was approving of Hiro’s words.
It was only natural, but the scar-faced man stared at the suspicious-looking Hiro.
“Friends……? Those are quite the unusual garments. And⎻⎻⎻”
The man’s face didn’t even try to hide his displeasure as he looked down on Hiro. However, just that gaze alone made Hiro’s back completely give out.
Certainly, Hiro was the one and only person wearing a school uniform here.
In the first place, Hiro was hardly used to seeing people wearing armour with a sword at their waists.
“Those features and hair colour don’t belong to one of the empire……which country are you from?”
Upon being told that, Hiro realized that none of them had features resembling that of a Japanese person.
Blonde, and brown hair could be seen all over the place. Yet, there was not one whose hair possessed a dark tint like Hiro.
Their cheekbones were also prominent, their noses high, their shoulders wide, and if you compared their bodies, no two were the same.
The young girl next to Hiro lightly tapped his shoulder.
When he turned his head, her lovely and beautiful face came just up to the tip of his nose.
“You’ve got a kind face, and your eyes are also big and round, kind of like when Cerberus was little. I like it, you know?”
“Eh, ahh……th-thanks.”
Just when I was wondering what she was going to say……it made my heart beat violently.
“That makes it even more suspicious. Do you know where this is?”
“Dios. Don’t be so intimidating towards a child like this. He’s terrified!”
“……but you know, Ojou. Even if he is a child, it doesn’t change the fact that he’s a suspicious character.”
For Hiro, these were words that he couldn’t simply ignore.
If it was the man called Dios, Hiro didn’t mind being called a child.
However, for the young girl……for a girl who was clearly younger than him to call him a child was odd.
“Why? Even though he’s cute……“
“It’s not a matter of being cute or not……”
As the corners of Dios’ mouth twitched, Hiro interrupted the man by raising his hand.
