The next morning. After the fight, in which they gave their best as never before, Tatsuya asked Yakumo for a respite.
"I don't mind. You are not my disciple, so you don't need to worry about such formalities. You can stop at any mont and at any ti you can call
to fight if I'm free, of course."
"Thank you very much, Master."
Although he was just told that he wasn't a student, Tatsuya still said "master." Yakumo didn't rebuke or correct him. The usual grin on his face, was there too.
"However, I want to ask about the situation. As I thought, the reason is the US space exploration project?"
Yakumo's expression was full of curiosity. Here Tatsuya had to grin, but he was able to suppress the urge before his lips began to bend. The situation he faced was serious. When he thought about it, he didn't laugh.
"That is a direct reason. For so ti, I will be sent under "house arrest" to a villa in Izu."
Although Maya said that this isn't true, Tatsuya still felt this as a house arrest. Continuing, Tatsuya told and about moving to Chofu.
"I see. It will be far away from here."
"This isn't an insurmountable distance. If you don't mind, I'd like to continue training after finishing house arrest."
"Of course I don't mind. Hmm..." After an imdiate answer, Yakumo brought his hand to his chin and chuckled slightly.
"By the way, Tatsuya-kun, aren't you going to worry about Miyuki-kun? Izu and Chofu are not at one step from each other, you cannot move imdiately."
"It would be a lie if I say that I will not worry, but Miyuki should not miss school."
"Even if the Yotsuba family organizes her protection, there will not be anyone who compares to your abilities with you. It will take so ti to solve this problem ... So I will also look after it."
"I will be much calr if you do this ... But why did you decide to do this?"
Tatsuya isn't a disciple of Yakumo. He himself said it recently. If the relationship between Tatsuya and Yakumo does not even reach the connection between teacher and student, the relationship between Yakumo and Miyuki does not go beyond re acquaintance.
However, he imdiately regretted thinking that it wasn't worth asking. Before Yakumo began to answer Tatsuya's question, the corner of his mouth curved upward, as if saying "I've been waiting for it."
"Because I don't want to die yet."
"... What do you an?"
"If God forbid sothing happened with Miyuki-kun, you will destroy the whole world? I'm not sure that I can survive in the fla of nuclear fission."
Tatsuya didn't know what to say. He could only keep silent, clench his teeth, and bitterly on his face.
If sothing bad happens with Miyuki.
And if this ti he does not have ti.
He didn't have the confidence that he would not do anything with the world that took him from Miyuki.
On this day, Tatsuya didn't show up in the classroom.
He ca to school. But he stayed in the library from the early morning, without even stopping for lunch. He left the library and t with Miyuki only when it was ti to go ho.
Tatsuya's friends also refrained from approaching him. Even Erika didn't intervene in the trip of Tatsuya and Miyuki ho. These two were accompanied only by Minami walking behind them.
The next day the situation didn't change.
And the day after that, too.
"Sothing bad is coming, is it not?"
Thursday, after school. 30 minutes before the closing of the cafe. This voice has sounded from soone from a group of people in this cafe.
"It's not good ... are you talking about Tatsuya?"
When asked by Mikihiko, Erika gave him a look in which it was read: "Of course, what a stupid question?".
"Because of the exemption he does not have problems?
"Yes ... He said that the director personally freed him from his studies."
Honoka, who joined them after the end of the Student Council, answered Leo's question.
"And the truth is, it isn't good."
"Err?" Shizuku-san, what is it?
Mizuki bowed her head inquiringly, hearing the words of Shizuku, who apparently simply ignored the general flow of discussion.
"Tatsuya-san does not need to go to school anymore."
Shizuku answered directly. Without unnecessary embellishnts, she clearly pointed out the situation. Mizuki widened her eyes and covered her mouth with both hands. Honoka lowered her eyes sadly.
"... That is, Shiba-senpai will not co to school anymore?"
Not only third-grade students were gathered here. Kasumi, forced to co for as company with Izumi, and feeling uncomfortable here, dared to voice sothing that no one else would have said.
"I think he will return when the situation calms down."
"B-true!"
Honoka supported the responding Shizuku. Her voice sounded as if she was clinging to the last hope.
"But will this situation improve?"
Erika's words spoken with anxiety in her voice, looked like a burning fire. Or, it can be said, on a block of ice, because the face of Honoka froze.
"Erika! Don't say that!" said Mikihiko. It wasn't a loud scream that would have been heard by other groups of people, but in other words, besides
"shouting at soone" it was hard to na.
"Mikihiko, calm down." Those who tried to ease Mikihiko were Leo, not Erika. Erika didn't say anything wrong. I also cannot imagine that the current situation will improve within a month or two.
"I understand that! But you can at least not say it out loud!"
"Because it shocked Mizuki and Mitsui? I think you should not do this."
"... Are you saying that you don't care if Tatsuya-kun does not appear in school anymore?"
"Leo tried to protect Erika. But it was Erika who was the one who stopped him.
"I care. Even if Tatsuya leaves school, we will not cease to be his friends."
Erika silently slapped her eyes. Honoka and Mizuki had similar expressions.
"... In such situations, you are indeed completely unbearable." Erika muttered in an angry voice. "Even a simple fool can sotis say well."
"Hey ... is that praise or insulting?"
Narrowing his eyes, Leo stared at Erika.
"Who knows ~. I just sounded the facts."
However, Erika, showing that she'sn't up to this matter, turned away in a defiantly daring manner.
"This girl ..."
"Stop! Leo, you, too, calm down." Feeling signs of impending anxiety, Mikihiko stopped Leo.
"It seems to
that the friendship of Saijou-senpai is truly worthy of respect." Picking up at the right ti, Izumi wedged into Erika deadlocked conversation. "I would not want Shiba-sempai to drop out of school either."
With a look of surprise on her face, Kasumi stared at Izumi. Even cowering in the environnt of the sempai, Shiina made a puzzled face.
But they both made a mistake.
"If Shiba-senpai leaves school, then Miyuki-senpai will grieve ..."
Kasumi whispered to herself: "I thought so ...".
"It's clear! Then everything is in order."
"Er, what's clear?"
Shizuku banged her fist in the palm of her hand, as if she had made so discovery, and Honoka asked her to tell more.
"If Tatsuya-san is expelled, then Miyuki will also leave school."
Hearing Shizuku's suggestion, Izumi turned pale.
"But Tatsuya-san will not allow Miyuki to drop out of school."
The complexion of Izumi imdiately returned to normal.
"Right! If this is for the sake of Miyuki-sempai ..."
"Then Tatsuya-san will not leave school either."Shizuku finished for Izumi.
"... But if he does, then in the current situation with him sothing can happen?"
In the approaching atmosphere of the "happy ending" Saburou's timid words were heard. The mood at the table fell again below ground. Saburou shrank under the strict look of Shiina, in which "what are you talking about !?" was read.
For so ti they sat in awkward silence, the atmosphere gradually worsened, and suddenly the cafe monitor switched to news.
After listening to so of the news Leo muttered. "Hey-hey ... are they serious?"
Although there were still other groups of people in the cafe, apart from them, there were no complaints from anyone. Most likely, everyone thought the sa way he did.
The news was broadcast from Moscow.
The screen showed a leading scientist of the Academy of Sciences of the New Soviet Union, and in combination with the officially recognized state Strategic Class Magician, one of the "Thirteen Apostles
