chapter 32

I finished eating lunch at the cafeteria, I was returning to the room after receiving a text saying “return home” from Roll .

On the way, I was involved in some familiar faces, so I took more time than I thought before I got back .

Because it was delayed on my way back with that, as soon as I returned to the room, Roll was sleeping on the bed .

“I’m sleeping ……”

After all it seems that child could not be caught .

No, I guess Roll and I are not going to date anymore . I’d like to go .

But I feel bad about it .

Why are you asleep in the first place? Were you lacking sleep?

I wonder if I could not sleep thinking about the date with me last night .

…… That is not it .

Oh well . Let’s try waking her up only once .

I thought so and rocked the body of Roll .

“Roll”

When I called her, Roll rolled out from the bed and landed on the floor with low posture .

“… … where is the enemy?”

And the first time I told you so, I will unexpectedly spit out .

I wonder if it was a battle field in her dreams .

“Roll, this is your room, there are no enemies”

“……sorry … I was sleeping”

As a result, Roll stuck her cheek to the floor . Then started to sleep again .

Did you sleep twice … ? .

“Fuu”

For the time being, I picked up the roll and carried her to the bed .

Because the floor is chilly, she may catch a cold if he did not put her on a futon .

I thought so, so I put a blanket around Roll .

I smelled her blanket because I was a little concerned, it smelled like Roll .

Anyway, I wonder if Roll didn’t sleep enough .

I woke her up and she did not get up so I do not need to force it .

I can’t be shocked too far just because the date has been canceled .

Since I can do it again in the future with Roll … … or there are many people who act with two people regardless of it being a date, I guess I do not have to worry .

It is a pity that I could not spend the last day with Roll properly .

I was thinking variously while looking at the sleeping face of Roll, but I rise to switch my thinking .

It seems like I’m a girl in love with this .

Wrong . It may be a matter of time that I will fall in love with a Roll, but it is a matter of how much a man can fall in love with .

… … Well, what shall I do now?

I have nothing to do because my schedule was suddenly empty . In this case it might have been to follow the task of Tameiki-san .

For the time being I left Roll’s room, and headed to the training room .

I had nothing to do and thus I thought of adjusting my ability .

However, on my way to the training institute, I encountered a certain person .

“Shion, it’s been a while,”

Codename: Hyde .

The head of Anonymous . It’s boss . He’s wearing a black coat in this fucking hot season and is looking like he’s going out now .

It is the first time in a month I’ve seen the boss .

“Long time no see, boss”

“How was Tameiki-san’s training?”

“It was already awful, how many times did I almost die?”

“I wonder, are you going to train now?”

“Yes”

“Then you should come over to my job”

“Yes, yes?”

Am I shaded now?

“There is a self-defense military base at about 200 km north-west from this town . Right now, there are only small fish of major general class, it is an easy hit with Utado-san* . ”

(Utado-san is called Shido in the previous translation . I’m not sure why it was used, but I’m gonna stick with Utado-san or Miss/Mrs . Poetry unless someone wants to explain it . So to reiterate, Hyde’s partner is Utado-san/Miss or Mrs . Poetry based upon what I mtled, but I’m open to change it if someone can give me a reason to do so . )

For Boss, Major General class is a small fish .

Even though I couldn’t even touch the likes of a Lieutenant previously, I probably still could not win with just a little training . It is next to impossible that I can win against a Major .

I guess there is also a compatibility of abilities .

“No, no matter how I go, it will only be a part of my feet . ”

“Even so, you can follow me so you can gain experience, but if you do not want to come by any means, that’s fine too . ”

Well . What should I do…… .

I am scared, but I also want to go a little .

Unlike Tameiki-san, the boss seems to be struggling with strange impossibility … … .

No, if you think carefully this person asked Tameiki-san to take my training .

But I wonder if the place 200 km away will be in time for school tomorrow .

Let’s ask .

“200km from here is a school from tomorrow, will I come back in time?”

“You can afford it if you use the ability of Utado-san”

“Oh, I see . ”

“Using Fictional Distortion (Distance)” (Not sure if this is completely accurate, but I think this is pretty close to the correct meaning as far as her ability goes based upon the description later in this chapter . )

I recalled Utado-san’s ability and said it .

There is no grief if I’m in time for school tomorrow .

“Well, may I follow you?”

“Oh, follow me up”

The boss turned a black coat with a grin and a nihilistic smile .

ー ー ー ー

Driving a car for about two hours with Utado-san driving, we were arriving at a hill that overlooked a self-defense army base .

The time is 3:30 . The sun glares down on the tuxedo, I feel the inside of the clothes getting hot .

Utado-san and the boss wore a similar ice black coat and let it blow .

“Tameiki-san seems to be successful”

The boss said so with a mask .

I wore a mask first so that I do not realize the tense feeling .

Utado-san who saw it smiled as “Huhu” and attached a mask as well, so my idea seems to be understood .

“This mission is to destroy the enemy and destroy the base .

So Shion, you job is to guide us .

We do not grasp the internal structure of that base and we do not know where the enemies are .

In order to effectively control the enemy, you must move us . “

“……I understand”

“Do not be nervous . You can do it comfortably .

It is me or Utado-san that annihilates an enemy .

Besides, no big enemies come out . “

Do not get nervous … . That is impossible .

But the boss and Utado-san are together, and it would be true that them being there makes it more comfortable .

“Yes”

When I answered powerfully, the boss started walking with a mask attached .

Utado-san also follows .

After all it is because the partners are together, their breathing is in tune .

I feel like a foreign body next to them .

Now I can see the boss fight at the top in the organization . I have to learn a lot .

“There are 4 guards in the vicinity of the entrance, leave it to Utado-san . ”

“Understood”

“I’ll leave the path after invasion to Shion . ”

“I understand”

When I reply, Utado-san jumped off the cliff of the hill .

As she moved to the entrance of the base and knocked down as if four guards near the entrance were flowing, we came back to the height where we are .

I admire Utado-san’s work without waste .

The ability to move instantly to a base that is far away is too much .

“Using Fictional Distortion (Distance)”

Ability to temporarily control the concept of distance . Concept A kind of dominant system .

It is different from “instantaneous mobile teleport”, but it is completely upward compatible if you think about it with applicability .

Roll said that Utado-san is surprisingly undefeated, but this seems true .

“Shall we go”

“Oh”

When I saw Boss and Utado-san stepping out, I also walked to follow them, converged with a distorted view .

If I notice it, I am not the hill above, instead the base entrance in front of me .

The dead bodies of the four people who fell nearby were all slit throat and were dead .

I saw it and turn on my ability . The mission has already begun .

I sharpen the nerve and handle the sound that I hear accurately .

There seems to be plenty of people inside the base .

This base, as you looked at it, is pretty wide .

It will take some time for this extinction .

“Let’s enter from that door in there, three in the room right in, and five in the room next to it . ”

“OK . ”

As I said so, Boss and Utado-san stepped into the base without feeling any tension .

I will watch out around as I follow .

If I show perfection here, my evaluation will be improved and I may be able to destroy my previous mission failures . I can do it, I can .

When I was thinking about such a thing, Utado-san suddenly called my name .

“By the way, Shion”

“what is it?”

“Is it possible for you to cut off our sounds with Shion’s ability?”

“I can do it … … I am already doing it . ”

I always have to adjust the range to hear, so I use it sparingly and nervously .

It is still evidence that I am not used to handling my abilities .

“Why, then talking is OK as well”

“Well, that’s useful . ”

“If this is the case, it seems likely that Shion could surpass thousands* in the next ranking” (Not sure about this, it mentions thousands of drugs in the mtl, I figured it was either a person or referring to the common people in the organization, may have to come back and change it later . )

“That ranking?”

“Yes, the jobs with Shion seem to rise in survival rate .

Ah, but surely Roll doesn’t want people shading Shion? “

“Lamentably that is so . ”

“I do not know then”

Two people who talked to the fellows as soon as they said that I was shutting off the sound .

I was stunned by the sudden disappearance of tension in front of me .

I wonder what is called ranking .

I decided to ask if I got interest .

“What is ranking?”

It seems not to fight within the organization .

“There is a member ranking that wants to shade you . The ability of Shion’s is good for support and you are quite the popular discussion topic . ”

“Shading can earn a good proportion of reward, especially if you can get on top of the rankings you can earn a lot . ”

…… It’s a rank that I do not want to ride too much .

In my case I do not want money . I am a student so I do not have much time to spend anything .

Although it is necessary to become strong to survive, if you died in a side mission, it is totally overwhelmingly stupid .

That’s why Roll is really a great partner . I’m thinking about myself somehow and I am cautious .

While walking and thinking, the boss who arrived at the door first opened the door of the base without any hesitation .

After that Utado-san continued, I also hurriedly go inside .

When I got inside, I could not hear the sound from the two rooms I reported .

The boss in a little advanced place has a knife with blood on one hand .

I passed two people and confirmed the room in front .

Then there were already three stagnant pools of blood .

Perhaps the next room is doing the same thing .

“It was not Utado-san that did this, right? Is it the ability of Boss?”

I looked back to the boss and heard it .

“Oh”

“What kind of ability is like this?”

Eight people were stabbed before I entered the base .

Is such a thing is possible with no sound?

“My bad, my ability is confidential so I can not tell you”

“It is only me and Tameiki-san that knows Hyde’s ability in the organization”

“I see……”

Is it that powerful of an ability? It is a powerful ability to stab the eight people in an instant .

Anonymous The boss who boasts the power of the first place .

I was concerned about that ability before, but was it confidential information?

“Only the one who is killed by me is able to notice my ability .

But you can fight me if you win in the organization tournament . “

“It is only Tameiki-san that has fought Hyde yet in the organization, but she was losing to Hyde and seeing his ability . ”

Ability that that Tameiki-san is losing to… … .

I do not want to fight against it .

“Well, if you have the ability of Shion, you may be able to understand after observing me for several fights .

If you can figure it out during this mission I will make you an executive . ”

The boss smirked and said it .

Looking at it I will bitterly smile .

I do not want to become a senior executive, so let’s not see it … … .
