Seeing the little girl crying with joy in his arms, Ryota's heart was touched.
Just let her hug him to vent her emotions.
When it was almost done, he reached out and patted the girl on the back, then comforted her: "I'm fine, the system has recovered all my injuries, even the damaged clothes are back to normal, don't worry."
A touch from behind brought Misaki back to her senses, and she raised her head to meet Ryota's gaze.
Suddenly, Misaki's expression stiffened, her body stiffened as well. She suddenly pushed Ryota away, causing the latter to nearly lose his footing and fall back into a crouched position.
"Uh... what's wrong with you? Shokuhou." Ryota asked suspiciously.
Misaki ignored him. Because by this time, she already realized what she had just done.
Earlier she actually really took the initiative to hug the opposite sex that she had just known for less than 4 hours!
Her attitude is still very positive!
The arm is still very hard!
Misaki's whole face immediately turned red from the tip of her nose to the roots of her ears, even her snow-white neck became rosy, like a ripe apple, which made people want to bite it.
What should she do if she suddenly wants to hunker down with her head in her arms and shut herself up for a bit?
But as a noble and elegant first grade princess, she must not make such an embarrassing reaction.
(Do you want to erase Shiro-chan's memory now?) A demonic thought appeared in Misaki's mind.
But she quickly. She couldn't do anything to repay kindness and revenge.
Ryota observed the state like Misaki, and his eyes became a little strange.
Because Misaki really looks like an elementary school student. So Ryota, who has the mind of an adult, isn't thinking things he shouldn't be thinking, but is just confused.
It's fine now, what happened suddenly?
At this time, Inaho approached Ryota and asked actively: "How is your wound?"
"Full recovery, even physical strength."
Ryota turned his attention away from Misaki, and said with some emotion: "I must say, the guild function is really good... By the way, there's something I almost forgot."
Looking at his two teammates, Ryota suddenly became serious:
"Thank You. In the end, you got me out of the Beehive, right? That's very helpful!"
When the licker was killed, he was already in a state of serious injury and bludgeoned to death.
Not to mention getting in a car and running away, whether he can survive is still a question.
Ryota guesses that Inaho and Misaki are giving him emergency treatment, then flee with him.
It could be said to be a life-saving boon.
"Are you stupid!"
Unexpectedly, Misaki suddenly lost her temper because of Ryota's words.
"Obviously I should be the one thanking you, you were like that to save me, why do you want to thank me!"
"..." Ryota looked at her suspiciously.
He was grateful but caused the other party's dissatisfaction?
What's the logic?
On the other hand, Misaki didn't know what happened to her, why she was angry.
In short, she was plagued by irritability, and when she saw Ryota thanking her in turn, she couldn't help but want to scold him a few words.
She couldn't understand this inexplicable mood, and she became more irritable for a while.
What is the reason... Misaki really wants to scratch her head.
As a psychologist, she couldn't understand her own psychology.
The other side.
As an outsider, Inaho looked at Ryota, and then at Misaki... He looked but didn't say anything.
Ryota doesn't mention that he risks his life to save others, but first expresses his gratitude for the help he's received—he's acting too indifferent to himself!
It was as if he thought that the things he did were ordinary, normal, not worth mentioning, and ordinary people would do them.
But how could an ordinary person do what he did?
Misaki gets angry at this point, thinking it's unfair, or complains at Ryota's injustice, hoping he can get a befitting return after giving, instead of showing indifference and boredom.
Only a person who cared about himself would display such an unconventional attitude.
Just hearing Inaho say to Ryota: "Without your flash bombs to calm the lickers, we probably wouldn't be able to come back, and you helped me a lot."
Very rarely, a smile appeared on the boy's iceberg face.
"So no need for extra thanks Shiro, this is mutual assistance between teammates."
Ryota and Misaki were stunned at the same time.
"...What is it?" asked Inaho strangely.
"It is nothing." Ryota waved his hand. "I just saw you smile, it was quite sudden and a bit unexpected."
"Normal people must smile right?" Inaho said flatly.
What kind of normal person are you... Ryota complained in his heart.
"By the way," Ryota suddenly remembered something, "Inaho, I remember you said before that there were two lickers alive, right? We only killed one, what about the others? Is it gone?"
"No." Inaho shook his head and said, "The others died too, but I don't know when they died."
He recounts the previous speculation.
This means that the Licker may not have died at the time of the explosion, but he must have suffered very serious injuries and could not survive in the harsh environment after the explosion.
After Ryota listened, he was a little surprised and a little emotional.
"So, it was really thrilling back then! Luckily, we were once favored by the goddess of fortune. Otherwise, it is uncertain whether the two lickers will survive together."
"Indeed, we were lucky this time."
Inaho rarely believes in luck, inevitably having the notion "Should luck be included in layout elements in the future".
After all, lickers have strong self-healing abilities. In theory, as long as they are not directly killed by the bomb, they are more likely to survive.
However it died.
After secretly remembering the element of luck, Inaho started talking about his business:
"Let's stop chatting here, Shiro, Shokuhou, let's take a look at the system's clearing rewards first. There is something unexpected, I think you will be interested."
"Something unexpected?"
Hearing this, Ryota called up the system's light screen with anticipation.
