Chapter 421: Isn’t this just like a secret organization!?
Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu
Hoshi was attracted by this song and wanted to find the girl who was singing.
While walking around in the forest, what he saw, heard, and touched all felt incredibly realistic to him, unlike any dream he'd ever had. It all felt tangible to him.
'This lucid dream is incredible!' That was Hoshi's opinion at the ti.
In the end, he never found the singer by the end of his dream.
"After I woke up, I tried recalling for a long while if I had ever heard this song anywhere before, but I couldn't recall it at all. I found it quite strange why it appeared in my dream." Hoshi tilted his head slightly. "Perhaps it's that I heard it once long ago but forgot… at any rate, I was unable to recall."
A forest of maple trees, red leaves, and a female singing…
Seiji recalled a common SR-ranked spirit in the cell phone ga he used to play in his previous world.
This beautiful female spirit with black hair and red eyes had been an original creation by the ga's developers, but she was also based on a legend as well. He was uncertain if there was a similar legend in this world.
In his previous world, her legends weren't very famous. Even though she was clearly a beautiful female demon as powerful as Snow Girl, she was quite unknown, which seed rather wondrous to Seiji. Judging by the contents of the legend about her, she was likely to be even stronger than Snow Girl, and could have been an SSR card's power, but she was only an SR… Cough, he was getting sidetracked.
As for the story involving that original spirit, compared to the situation in this world… Seiji subtly felt as if he was sensing evil intentions from the world.
He decided not to think too much into it.
"Hoshi, what I need to tell you is that your dream was no simple dream," Seiji told Hoshi in a serious manner.
"Eh?"
"This was not only an overly clear and strange dream. It's best if you treat it as a second reality… if you dream the sa dream again tonight."
"What?" Hoshi made a foolish sound of dazedness.
He knew that his senpai wasn't joking around due to the serious tone of voice, but…
"Senpai, just what exactly…"
"It's not a convenient ti to explain the things your dream involves to your right now."
Hoshi now had a confused expression.
"I apologize for confusing you." Seiji smiled. "Let's just leave things as is for now. After you're done working for today, I'll contact you again and we can discuss it then."
"Oh… Okay."
"Go ahead and rest for the remainder of your break. I'm leaving now."
Hoshi watched his senpai leave and felt like there was a mysterious aura coming from that familiar figure.
Seiji headed to the Juumonji mafia group's residence to find Hisashi.
"As for the matter of people dying in their sleep… All I can say is that if any of you have a strangely realistic dream, you should act calmly and treat it as you would in real life," Seiji told Hisashi. "And if your life is in danger, you can try calling out for to save you… although I'm not sure if it will work or not."
Hisashi fell silent for a mont after hearing these words.
"Got it. Thank you, Seigo."
"No need to be polite."
"Did you co all the way here just to tell this?"
"Yeah."
"You went to the trouble of coming here personally instead of telling over the internet or on the phone. This ans that this is so top-secret information?" Hisashi adjusted his eyeglasses as sothing flashed in his eyes.
"I suppose you could say it like that. I'm not sure either if it counts as top-secret or not. I just feel that it's best to be cautious." Seiji sighed.
"Understood." Hisashi nodded. "I shall only tell what you said to my father and older brother Zankita. I won't tell anyone else apart from them. Is that alright?"
"That's fine."
After leaving the Juumonji Group, Seiji then went to go find Peach-sensei to tell her what he knew.
"Soul realm… just like that ti before?"
"Very similar, but not entirely the sa," Seiji stated. "I don't know how to specifically describe it, but it felt different from being in Reo-chan's soul realm. It felt more realistic."
The mangaka looked towards Seiji.
"Did you save soone again?" she asked.
"Yeah… I felt that things were rather subtle. I wasn't sure if I helped out or actually made more trouble."
"Did the person in question think that you made more trouble?"
"No… she didn't."
"That's fine, then." Mayuzumi began smiling as she looked at Seiji's face. "You're a hero, Haruta-kun."
"I just did what I could." Seiji felt rather awkward as he scratched his face.
"Hee hee…" The mangaka chuckled lightly.
She promised him that she would be careful as well, and that she would tell what he just told her to Saki in person.
"I hope that you won't force yourself. It's nice to be a hero and all, but you have to make sure that you don't collapse first."
"I know. Thank you for your concern, Sensei."
After talking to Peach-sensei, Seiji then headed for Shouzou Amami's residence, where Rion and Kotomi also lived.
"Welco, Harano-kun."
"Sorry to be a bother, Amami-san."
After entering and taking a seat, Seiji directly discussed the main topic.
"Amami-san, have you heard about the Awakened?"
"I've already heard so news about them, yes."
"This will be easy to explain then… I believe that Hoshi is possibly going to beco an Awakened."
"Oh?" Sothing flashed in Shouzou's eyes. "Harano-kun, why do you think so?"
"Please allow to keep that a secret. It's difficult for to talk about in detail." If he talked about it in detail, that ant revealing what he knew about Yukari, which was sothing he didn't want to do as he had promised to keep information about her a secret.
Seiji looked towards the elderly man. "The important part here is Hoshi. Although it's only a possibility, I feel that it's likely that he'll beco an Awakened tonight… Amami-san, do you have any thoughts about what to do in such a situation?"
Shouzou fell silent for a mont.
"I don't wish to see that child Hoshi beco an Awakened. However, I don't know any way to stop this process." He sighed. "If he truly Awakens, then all I can do is do my best to take care of him."
Seiji nodded. "I believe that Hoshi should be told about the mystical society… about Spiritual Ability users, so that he's at least ntally prepared. What does Amami-san think?"
Shouzou considered it for a mont.
"I suppose that now is a good ti to tell him." He looked directly at Seiji. "We might as well tell Rion and Kotomi as well, so that they know Harano-kun's true identity. Is that alright?"
"Sure. They already know my true na and family background. All that's new is that now they'll know I'm a Spiritual Ability user."
He didn't expect that Shouzou Amami would add in the twins as well.
Seiji felt that it was fine to tell the twins. However, he suddenly realized that with this, his entire dating sim ga creation group, with himself included, now had four out of nine mbers as Spiritual Ability users—almost half!
Seiji couldn't help but imagine the future developnts.
If everyone in his ga group Awakened, then this group whose original intention was to create a ga together that called themselves the Knights of the Round Table just for fun… wouldn't it beco just like an alliance between Spiritual Ability users…? Wasn't this just like a secret organization!?
Seiji was astonished by his own idea. He didn't know why, but just imagining it made him feel like it had the potential to beco reality.
'That couldn't be… no, I can't say that it's impossible…'
Seiji couldn't help but continue imagining:
The first knight Hisashi who had two personalities, open and funny on the outside, secretly cruel and dark on the inside.
The second knight, the beautiful Yukari who manipulated spiderwebs and toyed with others as she pleased.
The third knight, the twins Rion and Kotomi that acted as if they were one and had better cooperation with each other than any possible duo, and who would always work together to defeat any opponent.
The fourth knight, the androgynous Hoshi who had a magical-seeming figure and smile… Cough! Stop!!!
Seiji forced himself to stop getting carried away in his fantasies and finally returned to his senses.
Although he accidentally thought of a scene that he shouldn't have, all in all, it seed quite good to him?
