I appreciate you saying so, but how did you figure out that I was in that place?
Regarding that, Kanaki, I wasnt really looking at you; instead, I was observing Rain to assess his combat prowess.
I see. Now that you put it that way, it made sense. That would an that she did not have any prior insight into my activities, but that I coincidentally showed up while she was monitoring Aldar.
But how did you recognize when I was clad in Mist Veil?
Hey, dont you realize that youre the only person in this world, let alone this city, who could take a bullet to the head like that and still maintain an indifferent expression on your face?
Having been told that, even I would show a daunted look. In short, it implied that those familiar with could identify at a glance.
So the truth is, I had been watching you fight from the beginning, Kanaki. It was an excellent opportunity for to gauge the other sides capabilities, so I let myself be a spectator for a while.
A mischievous smile crossed Xenias face, but my indignation was not at all aroused because I was ultimately spared from having to handle the battle on my own and was saved. Rather than that, for my part, another aspect struck as surprising.
No, I was saved consequently, which is fine. What was more unexpected was that you were doing a fighting ability reconnaissance.
Oh, really?
I an, if you knew what your opponent was capable of, wouldnt you be extrely inclined to claim it would be dull, Ms. Xenia?
Xenia then erupted to the hilt.
Ahaha! Oh my, what in the heaven are you talking about! Did you think I was that kind of character?
Well, since you are a pleasure-seeking individual, its not inconceivable that you would be like that.
No, no, no, if by any chance I did that and lost, I wouldnt be able to enjoy myself for a while. Even though I am a pleasure-seeking woman, I want to have fun on a semi-permanent basis.
Is that how it is?
Thats the way I am.
Behind , a large pillar of fire rose up. Location-wise, it was around the area where I was earlier. Xenia raised a faint voice, Ah at the sight of this.
The reinforcents have arrived from the other side, so I suppose this is as far as we can go to stop them. Shall we call it a day?
Walking next to Xenia, who had turned on her heel, a question was posed to her.
By the way, how did your reconnaissance of Aldars strength fare?
It was splendid, thanks to your efforts, Kanaki. In particular, I was able to witness the magical tools he was employing. I have seen a lot of magical tools that are specialized for Magic Bullet shooting, but I have never encountered one that is variable and transforms into a knife in close-quarters combat. Even his Magic Bullet, whether it uses composite magic or not, is transparent and even has invisibility.
Ahaha thats true.
Even though I had used the magic crystal stone to finally find out what that was, Xenia, who was observing from afar, seed to have figured it out easily. Conversing with this person, I was reminded that I was indeed a diocre person.
Besides, I sensed from the fight that he probably wasnt at his utmost capacity, so I suppose its too early to evaluate his strength based on what I saw today.
I know. After gathering a little more information, I will strike again at the perfect opportunity.
When I noticed it, aside from us, a few other people were beginning to be sighted on the street. Before long, we were back near the bustling main street.
Having reached this distance, it was probably impossible to track us down. After one last ticulous confirmation that no pursuers were forthcoming, I deactivated Mist Veil. Conversely, it would be conspicuous in a crowded place if soone were to wear Mist Veil.
Hey, look at that.
What was pointed out by Xenia was an old food stall. An enticing aroma of soy sauce and oil wafted toward us and on the curtain of the stall was written Ran.
I lent you a helping hand today, didnt I?
I get it.
The truth was, I was hoping for an early departure for ho, but never would I have dread that the escaped culprit would be dining on ran noodles at a nearby food stall. Leaving that aside, keeping Xenia in a positive fra of mind seed to be ideal right now.
After urging Xenia, who had a wicked smile plastered across her features, I walked through the curtain.
Welco! What would you like to order
Shoyu ran for two
An exceptionally young girl asked what was my order, and when I looked at her, it turned out to be Eto.
The other party blinked her long, slanted eyelashes several tis, seemingly taken aback by my presence.
Xenia, who entered the stall late, shrugged it off and took a seat at the narrow counter, banging on the table and saying, Oh, Im so hungry! You knew she was here and brought here, didnt you?
Um.
Eto bristled as she struggled to utter sothing, but what eventually emanated from my mouth was, At any rate, our academy prohibits part-ti work in principle, right?
Oh, y-yes! Im sorry!
Hearing the exchange, Xenia muttered in a whisper next to , You guys are moving at your own pace too, but I decided to dismiss the comnt.
