While sucking the sweetness from my fingers, I put the remaining half of the cone into my mouth and chewed it. I kept looking at Tsuchimikaen who seemed a little disappointed in his eyes.

"...Forget it, to put it simply, in the afterlife, many creatures with strange powers have appeared, and these creatures have invaded this world through the connection between the afterlife and this world."

A creature from the afterlife...with strange powers?

It seems that what the King of Night said before is probably these things. The reason why girls become abnormal is also because these things are playing tricks, but...

"In the original afterlife...it seems there are no such things."

"I don't know much about this, but Academy City's high-level officials seem to have a definite statement."

"What's that...what's the content?"

In response to my questioning, Tu Yuén shook his head and said that even he did not know this part of the situation.

"Anyway, the most important thing now is to find out the cause of the angel's fall, right? Judging from the previous situation, even the eldest sister was involved in this special incident... Ah, I almost forgot, now even I

I couldn't escape such a disaster in the same way, it's really... it would be embarrassing to tell it, right?"

During the time when Tsuchimune was complaining all by himself, I was no longer interested and turned my attention to the vast sea.

Staring at the boundless sea level like this was something we often did in the erroneous locked time flow. However, what is different from the increasingly desperate mood at that time is that the sea now can give people stability and peace.

The clear and even sound of the sea like breathing, and the rustling sound that coincided with the frequency of my heartbeat every beat, gradually restored my previously uneasy mood to the same quiet and peaceful appearance as the ocean.

Completely cover the uneasy negative emotions under the deep sea.

"Unfortunately..."

After attacking again and failing to strike up a conversation, Kamijou Touma slumped back under the umbrella and lazily covered his face with a towel.

"It's obvious that the big sisters all look so enthusiastic... It's obvious that my sister finally gave me such an opportunity..."

For Touma, such a day is undoubtedly a happy one. Whether it is Yoshii Rei, Saionji Yun or the Tsuchimika who has not met until today, it seems that for some reason

Unable to take care of Touma, the boy tried his best to throw himself into the happy conversation.

However, judging from the results, Touma is still the one who has inherited the power of "unlucky right hand". Not only is he unable to receive the favor of the God of Destiny, but it also affects the existence of others.

"Speaking of which, every time we encounter big trouble, it's because of Touma's presence, right?"

Suddenly realizing that this reason seemed quite correct, I slapped the boy on the head angrily.

"Yes...that's right!"

Touma suddenly jumped up, but he didn't complain at all. Instead, he looked at me expectantly.

"As for Makoto-san... you are very good at communicating with girls, right?!"

"Huh? Well...that's it."

Do you only use "good at" to describe it? You are really an idiot who doesn't know how to please people. In fact, in the entire game, there are only a few "Raiders" who can compare with me, right?!

"Then! If you ask Makoto-san to help introduce you... maybe it will be successful!"

ha?!

I stared at Touma's eager face with suspicion for a long time, confirming that this guy was indeed explaining the plan to me seriously.

"What are you talking about? You idiot, isn't it completely pointless to let others do things like striking up conversations?"

"Hey? But Makoto-kun has done something like giving Misaka sisters and Mikoto to me before, so it should be okay this time, right?!"

...A guy who pushes beyond the limits, really, why don’t I have a companion who is truly reliable around me?

"Forget it, then... just try it once."

Shaking my head helplessly, I could only stand up and prepare to follow Touma to "assist in the strategy".

"Yuuji... do you want to strike up a conversation?"

Just as we were about to leave, Kirishima Sho, who seemed to be having some mysterious conversation with Kudo Ai, suddenly stopped in front of me.

"Hey? That...Xiang, it's actually because..."

I was discovered by this woman! Will I be asked to sit quietly in the sea water for half an hour like before?

"..."

When I looked at Touma worriedly, and planned to encourage the boy to use him as bait to lure away the enemy for me, Kirishima Sho nodded slightly, and then gave me a white handkerchief.

"What...what is this...for?"

"...The woman Yuuji picks up must be a virgin."

Kirishima Sho answered my confused question with a serious face.

"puff!"

Not far away, the muffled wolf that was being looked after by Kudou Ai seemed to burst out a terrifying fountain of blood again. This time, the cause seemed to be because Kudou Ai did something strange to the muffled wolf.

"Old man... I always think everyone today looks weird."

Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was completely out of the situation, still didn't realize what was happening around him - it seemed that even angels and mysterious creatures from the afterlife also understood how precious Hideyoshi was.

"Anyway...anyway! Touma, if you have a target you are optimistic about, just tell me!"

After Kirishima Sho gave me a "handkerchief for recording the results of the conversation," I could only turn around with an embarrassed look on my face, patted my chest and made my promise to Touma, who was full of envy.

"Okay...ok! Then..."

Kamijou Touma built a shelter with his palms and began to look around on the beach.

"There are so many cute girls...Which one do you want? This one is not bad, and the one over there is also very cute...I'm really worried that it's Cheng-san who gets the fancy..."

"Idiot! Give me a quick choice!"

Really, is this guy really planning to find me a reinforced company of followers on this beach? That kind of artistic vase that looks bright but has no effect is of no use to me at all.

"Yes... yes!"
