6: The Truth About the Love Letter is Mayhem
About the thing, how did the tale continue?
Ah, I had been trying to find the person who sent the letter, but in the end I found myself back where I started
If it wasn’t Chiwa, then I had to give up I had no clue about the 'bind ourselves together again', so of course I had not 'come to a conclusion' about this matter
”Maybe it was really just a prank after all?”
I had no choice but to go back and reconsider the possibility I had initially rejected
Because the writing was so ly complicated, I had assuht about it more carefully, it still could have been a trap to make me think that Chirote it They probably wanted todilemma between Masuzu and her If that were the case, it made sense My recent actions probably pleased them a lot
After understanding this point, I could only disregard the letter
If I wouldn’t have reacted at all and went on with my usual life, the ave up Suht after final exa deal out of this
Thus, final exay on the tests Even Jien-Otsu activities were suspended It's been a long ti Thanks to this, I had a very good feeling about exams and I could probably keep my rank as nu relieved——
Monday , the week after exams ended
After I went to school with Chiwa and opened my shoe cupboard
—I cannot bear it I want to see you
—Today after school, I ait for you on the roof
”Ei-kun, is there so?”
Because Chiwa suddenly peaked, I had to shove the letter influstered
”Was that a handout from before? The one inside your shoe cupboard?”
”A-A-Ah, that was a sheet of English translations! I thought I lost it, but it seems like a kind person picked it up and put it in here”
”I thought I saw so?”
”T-That was the question that was supposed to be translated into English It was a very hard question”
”Hard? 'After school'Houkago is just 'AFTER SCHOOL[1]', right?”
”No, you missed the trick, Chiwa! It actually reads 'after set on fire'Houkago! So 'AFTER BURNING[2]' is the correct answer!”
”[] Fu~unm”
Phe, enious cover-up worked
After Chiwa left to go to Class E, I walked down the corridor towards Class A and my brain worked at top speed
It looked as if the cri more direct to lure me out
I could only think of two possible outcomes
First, they’ll watch h at me from afar
Second, Masuzu’s and Chiwa’s male fans will appear in a mob, surround me and beat me up
Neither of which was a good thing
I felt that nore it —No, since the other party has finally made a concrete e directly Compared to further harassment in the future, it was better to burst the bubble now and remove it
I wanted to clearly tell this person: 'Stop writing these boring letters!'
♦
So, school finally ended
I waited in the strong breeze on the roof for the criminal to arrive
Also, this wasthis roof
The first tie failure Why did these confessions have to be the black marks in my history? That I couldn't possibly understand
It did not seem like there would be happy hts that result in a new friendshi+p' only happen in the world of ht? I just wanted to protectwould not be obstructed
I took out my cellphone to check the time, and it was just about four o’clock in the afternoon Because the letter only said 'after school' I didn’t knohen the other person would come Earlier I had checked all around the roof, but there was no sign of anyone hiding There was only one entrance to roof, so if I just kept watch on it, they would probably come from there
After about five ain——
The rusted iron door slowly opened
”It's here—”
I prepared myself
How many people are there? Three people? Five people? If it's two, then give rade? If they are classmates, then I’d honestly admit defeat—
”Eh?”
But only a single girl appeared
There was nothing impressive about her appearance
She earing our school unifor the winter uniform
While I was unsure of how to react, the girl quickly walked up toto ame console from her chest
Then the background a on the roof
”?”
W-What?
Why did this girl come to this place?
The person rote the letter can't be this girl! I the ga next to me?
I stole a peek at the side view of the girl and was taken aback She really was an incredibly cute girl
The crown of her head was a kind of 'doll-like' hair that was very rare nowadays With herher dark hair could increase her cuteness level by 500 But if you looked at this girl under the sunlight, she looked absolutely delicate and adorable, especially her big watery eyes that would i eyelashes made her appearance quite beautiful
If only she didn't lack a slamorous maiden However, her expression was a complete 'poker face' and I felt as if her eyes were out of focus, or filled with some kind of foolish atmosphere Was she sleepy? It was exactly that 'drowsy' feeling
At this ame
”Huh? W-What?”
The girl still wore a poker face, even as she used all her force to push the game onto my chest
She seemed to want me to look at the screen
Well, there wasn’t a choice and I had to look I discovered that the screen displayed the status information of four units
Lv87 Hero - I
Lv85 Warrior - LOVE
Lv83 Monk - U
Lv1 Magician - ♥
”[] []”
What a unique teaician are part of a common teaician… '♥' What was that, and as it the only one at level one?
If you strung it together, it reads 'I LOVE YOU ♥'? [3]
”[]”
Now that I irl’s face was quite red…
Starting just a few un to act all shy and uneasy
Her hands that held the game trembled, and it looked almost as if she was about to drop it
Yes, she looks like— yes, just like a girl who confessed to the boy she liked
No
Wrong, wrong
It can’t be, it can’t be
”[]”
”[]”
T-The silence is very heavy!
Since she didn’t say anything, the atmosphere was very aard
Basically, it is up tolike, 'that's a pretty cool party'? Or 'you are all set for dungeon-hunting'? No, why do I even have to talk about gaht, the criminal rote the love letter better come now! At least it would be better than this current situation It doesn’t matter if they are Masuzu’s fans or Chiwa’s fans, just come!
We both remained silent for over five minutes
There was no one else on the roof
”[]”
”[]”
It can’t be
This girl couldn’t be the one rote the love letter?
But this was inconsistent with 'bonds of the distance past' No matter how I looked at it, this was the first tirade as ure of her body In reality I couldn’t recall any i a face like hers before
”As expected”
”—!”
This girl finally said so!
”I presume Eita has not retrieved all of the memories of his past life, so I will try 'coe of this world”
”Eh?”
What is this girl talking about?
”Have you deciphered the ic spell' I just showed you?”
”Spell? —Do you mean the 'I LOVE YOU ♥'?”
The girl blushed
”It e”
”[]”
Hebrew is like that?
There’s even a '♥' letter?
”I am called Akishi+no Himeka in this world, but my real name is 'HIMEKA • Sei[4] • HEAVENSRAIN' And——”
The girl who called herself Hih her nose and very proudly said:
”In on Princess of DawnBURNING PRIN PRINCESS'”
Aahh
So that's the case
It has to do with 'past lives'
”In on Knight of DawnBURNING FIGHTING FIGHTER', Kidou Eita”
”Eeehhhh?”
”I've wanted to see you all along, Eita”
The girl juhtly Her body was very slender, and it seemed she would break if I tried to shake her off, so I didn’t even move
”W-Wait! Give me a moment, Akishi+no!”
”No, I want you to call me 'Hime[5]' like you did in the past”
”W-W-Well, Hiht of Dawn'?!”
”I sank into the snare of love in ether with you until the end But when the Ooi naru yas perished, I utilized a higher dih alchemy—”
”I wasn’t asking about the 'setting'!”
Hi wrapped around my back, raised her head and said blankly:
”I don’t really understand what Eita intends to ask”
”Where did you hear that I was the 'Holy Dragon Knight of Dawn'?”
”Point EKME”
”— Ekemue?”
