‘Haa, so that’s what he was up to?’
'Well, that’s annoying, but at least now we know to never appear before him.’
‘Hmm, but how do we deal with him then?’
‘J-Just th-through messages.’
Kanata-san was quite the troublesome ally I’d gotten myself. If push came to shove, I had no doubt I could deal with it, but something felt odd. For some reason, I actually hesitated when it came to him. If it were anyone else, I feel like I’d have killed them and used the next best option already, but for some reason, here I was, making up excuses to keep him alive.
I put my hand on my face and grumbled.
“The hell am I doing?”
“Lady Hinotori…?”
Sylphie asked.
I blinked, then took a look around. We were in Diane’s tree. Sylphie was already here when I came over to see Diane, but Diane insisted she stay for our conversation. I didn’t really mind since there was nothing wrong with her listening in on it.
“Oh, uh, sorry. Where were we?”
“You bested the Fortress of Solitude, no?”
