Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei

Volume 25, Chapter 6

Sunday, June 16, evening.

When Miyuki, who came to visit mines, was about to leave, another visitor arrived to the House of Mines.

“Yes, who is there?”

Miyuki replied to a knock at the door, and, having stopped by hand Izvinjajushhujusja mines, got up from a chair and headed towards the door.

It’s Kudo Minoru.

-Minoru-kun?

Miyuki stopped halfway and looked back at the mines. She nodded with a smushhjonnym face. The lips of Miyuki unwittingly floated in a smile.

Yes, I’ll open it now.

Miyuki opened the door to the chamber.

Miyuki and Minoru were separated from each other at arm’s length, facing each other.

I wonder, luckily it was, or to the trouble that no one saw this spectacle?

A girl with a heavenly beauty and a guy with a look of Unhuman beauty.

Some artist might have signed a parchment about selling his soul to be able to capture this moment on canvas.

Some poet might have deprived himself of his life from despair without finding words to describe this spectacle.

-Minoru-kun, welcome. You came to visit Minami-chan?

Yes. Um, can I come in?

But for these two, it was just an episode of ordinary everyday life.

Please.

Miyuki not lead in Minoru, but went aside, giving way to him.

Minoru held a floral composition composed of pale pink roses, gerber of the same color and orange carnations. Miyuki thought that it would be better for him to hand it over directly.

As it was expected, when a minor passed flowers, he reddened cheeks, and he slightly took a glance from the mines. Mine did, taking, completely reddened and bashfullyly lowered her eyes.

Miyuki would like to watch this scene longer, but changed her mind, deciding that it would be too much.

“Minoru-kun, thank you. Minami-chan, where do I put them?

Minor and Minami simultaneously shuddered all over the body. Miyuki struggled to keep laughing.

“Ah, uh, then, here…

Miyuki took the composition from the mines and put it on the bedside table on the side, to which she pointed.

“Uh, is Tatsuya-san here…?

Minoru suddenly changed the subject, as if he could not endure an awkward atmosphere.

Ara. Minoru-kun, did you have a case for Tatsuo?

Miyuki answered immediately. Was it the reason that she regretted the minor, or what was mentioned Tatsuya?

Probably both.

-Recently, he went to the doctor, and now, I think, should be back. You got something urgent?

No, it’s not urgent, I just wanted to discuss something.

Talk to me? “There was a voice from the hallway, on the other side of the left open door.

“Tatsuya!” Have you finished talking to your doctor?

Yes. I heard everything I wanted.

Answering the question Miyuki, Tatsuya entered the room and closed the door. … Miyuki not closed the door, not because she forgot to do it, and intentionally, thinking that it would be bad to lock the room with a guy and two girls.

So, Minoru.

Tatsuya spoke, but interrupted and frowneded his eyebrows when he met with a minor gaze. It seems to have been an unconscious act, and he quickly returned the usual face, and continued to say:

What did you want to talk to me about?

When Minoru was asked a suggestive question, he spoke not immediately. No, he just couldn’t talk right away.

—… On the state of Minami-san. “After all, he said with great difficulty. Clear. Let’s go someplace else.

Wait, please!

Tatsuya rightly behavior of minor suspicious, but it was mine who objected to this decision.

“Tatsuya—herself, Minoru—herself. If it’s about my condition, let me hear that conversation too.

“But…

Minoru wanted to object to the request of mines.

Please! I really want to know!

— … All right, Minami-san.

But in the end, he agreed to the request of mines. “Then, should I go out?”

No.

Miyuki stood up and turned to Tatsuo, but the answer came at the same time from Minoru and Minami.

Minor and Minami exchanged views, urging each other to continue.

— … I think it’ll be good if Miyuki-san hears it, too.

In the end he continued with Minoru, and the mines nodded silently.

During this dialogue Tatsuya brought chairs for himself and Minoru from the corner of the room.

First, let’s sit down.

With a thankful view of Minoru sat on brought Tacuej chair.

Miyuki returned to the chair at the headboard of the bed, on which she sat before the arrival of Minoru. Tatsuya sat down beside her, and Minoru-on the chair at the other end of the bed.

Under his views Tatsuya, Miyuki and Minami, Minoru spoke with the expression of the face, which remained indecisive.

—… I don’t know what the doctors say, but the “Rana” mine-san cannot be completely cured.

It seems that Minoru spoke openly and without concealment, because he had no extra time.

Most of all his words looked shocked Miyuki. She covered her mouth with both hands, opened her eyes wide and frozeed in this state.

Mine, at least, did not look shocked when she reacted to words in a minor.

A Tatsuya…

—… Tatsuya-San understood that, didn’t he? He just looked at a minor with a calm look.

No. I did not understand, and with the opinion that a complete cure is impossible, too disagree. It seems that what Minoru considers a “complete cure ” And what I think is a “complete cure ” are different concepts. Minoru, you probably want to say that the magic zone of mine will never recover?

Tatsuya-san, do you mean that a complete cure is when there will be no further worsening of symptoms?

That’s not true either. But we will not be helped by the struggle for small differences in definitions. What is the real problem you want to solve, Minoru?

—… The physical body of an improved person lacks vital stability. -The problem of sudden death?

Yes, that’s right. Despite the absence of medical anomalies, one day suddenly death may come, as if a sudden wind will blow the weak flame of the candle.

Tatsuya noticed that the look of Minoru somber.

—… This is the fate that mine-san bears on its shoulders… So am i.

…

How do you know mine is an improved man?

Such was the complete phrase, the first word of which whispered Miyuki.

Mine is just a viped look in Minoru.

-Damage to the magic zone increased the risk of sudden death. Minoru, is that what you mean?

Yes. Tatsuya-san, you know that?

“I’ve been investigating the sudden death of improved people for a long time. Ever since I let the man who was me as a family die from this.

“That means how…

Minoru could not decide whether to say the words of condolences, but gave up the idea, because he realized that without knowing the circumstances, he would not be able to express feelings from the heart.

—The overheating of the area of calculation of magic shook and damaged the information body accompanying the physical body. The damage to the information body has been shown to be material. Usually activity of a zone of calculation of magic occurs in limits in which it is impossible to harm to itself, however at the improved people this “fuse ” malfunctions. … It’s my hypothesis, but I think it’s the most appropriate.

“I also think that this theory is correct. I also think that the overheating of the magic Zone is always accompanied by the damage of this “fuse “.

Do you mean that the damage to the fuse is causing overheating?

—whether the overheating is caused by the “fuse ” damage or the overheating damages the “fuse “-I do not know.

Unlike the words minor, there was no helpless expression on his face showing a lack of certainty.

“However, what is the cause and what is the consequence does not matter at the moment.

Told Minoru without taking his eyes off the Tatsuya.

The fuse is damaged. That’s what’s important now.

This is now a problem. its basis.

“Isn’t that so?”

-Sure, it is.

Tatsuya expressed full agreement with the adoption of the minor.

-Minoru, are you worried that suddenly there may be an unintentional abnormal activation of the magic Zone by mines, as a result of which it can get serious damage?

Right.

Minoru nodded to Tatsuo.

“The current state of Minami-san increases the likelihood that the trouble of the improved people will become a reality. That’s my opinion.

“But didn’t you tell me there was no way to restore the magic zone?” Or is there something other than a fuse?

Minoru did not answer.

— … Minoru. You brought a decision with you, didn’t you?

Tatsuya continued to ask. Minoru took eyes to escape from the sight of Tatsuya.

— … Yes.

Even such a short answer he could not tell, looking tatsuo in the eye. and? What’s that?

— ……

Minoru.

Tatsuya got up from his chair and made half sideways. Not from the bed, but closer to it.

He stood up so as to close Miyuki and mine.

“What have you become?”

Minoru raised a previously omitted look. He looked at the Tacuju, and the edges of his lips rose.

Tatsuya remembered that smile. It was very similar to grin Zhou Gunczinja, which he saw in Kyoto.

— … You could understand that?

Miyuki up abruptly. She remembered this strange ghostly aura, these floating psion waves emanating from the body of Minoru.

A parasite!? No way…

Minami stared at the back of Tatsuya, forgetting about the blinking. In fact, her gaze was glued to Minoru, which was now closed by the body of Tatsuya.

Please don’t worry.

Minoru Rose and smiled Tatsuo and Miyuki. In this smile there was no longer an image of Zhou Gunczinja.

“I am a man from the Kudo family who created the parasite dolls. In the family Kudo I am the second magician after Grandpa. I own parasite management techniques.

It’s not that.

Tatsuya expressed a negation of the words minor. Not realizing the meaning, Minoru inquired about Tacuju.

You’re not “number two.” You’re the number one Kudo family. Best among wizards with “nine ” in surname.

Completely without a smile, with a serious face and a serious voice answered Tatsuya.

—… I am happy. -Minoru, on the contrary, sincerely smiled. -To be recognized tacuej-dignity.

This retrieves soul of the opponent smile absolutely did not affect the Tacuju. He did not lose his vigilance for a moment.

Oh, please, don’t be so cautious.

Who here lacked tension, so it is a minor. He had a bewildered face, and his eyes were running round.

“Becoming a” parasite, “I’m a left. My “i ” was not distorted. I don’t think I want to attack people or anything. And I am also not tormented by any other desires that I have not had before.

“However, Kudo Minoru was a man. And the current you are the parasite.

Is… So, but…

Minoru made a slightly suffering expression of his face.

“Despite that, I am me. Even now I am Kudo Minoru. With the right knowledge and strength, you can merge with the parasite and not lose yourself. I was able to prove it to myself.

Crowded with strong confidence, with determination on his face, Minoru turned to Tatsuo, Miyuki and Minami.

“You don’t have to be afraid to become a” parasite. “

Minoru. You… “Tatsuya whispered in a quiet, yet clearly distinguishable voice. — … Do you want to make mine a parasite?

Miyuki quickly got the CAD out of her purse, which she had in her hands.

— … The body “parasite ” has a high resistance to psionovym waves.

In the answer to Minoru, one could see indecision. Perhaps it really was proof that Minoru had not changed.

“Merged with the parasite, you won’t have to worry that the physical body will get hurt, even if the magic zone gets out of control. No, a “parasite ” that is closer to magic than wizards—people may not need to worry at all that the Magic zone will get out of control.

“In this case, you must first ask the opinion of mine itself about it.

Tatsuya stood motionless between minor and Minami. He overlaps them a review of each other.

“But this question must go through me as its master.

To be more precise, the “host ” Mine was Miyuki, but in this situation there was no need for such details. What was needed now is the reason for inserting your words.

I refuse. I don’t allow mine to be a parasite.

Tatsuya-san!?

Minoru was really astonished. It seems that he was fully convinced that Tatsuya would not object to his idea.

“But if you keep it that way, Minami-san can meet sudden death at any moment!

If the problem is in the exit from control of the zone of calculation of magic, that is, and other ways to cope with it, not becoming a “parasite “.

-but the restoration of the area of calculation of magic is impossible! If it was possible to restore the health of the fuse, I would not offer it from the beginning!

—When you cannot rely on the “fuse “, if you seal the area of calculation of magic outside, you can not worry that it will get out of control.

Minoru opened his eyes wide. Poshatnuvshis, and having made two steps back, he finally returned his composure.

-Tatsuya-san, are you saying that… Take the magic from Minami-san!?

Minoru couldn’t believe it. Take magic from the magician. It’s like stealing a magician’s sense of existence.

For a minor whose life was based on being an excellent magician, even to say it was unforgivable.

‘ Cause I want mine to be alive.

You’re going to make her stop being a magician!

“A person can have a life path not only as a magician. Mine lives more peacefully than an ordinary girl.

“It is your, not her wish, Tatsuya-san! You have no right to take away the magic of Minami-san!

Clear. Indeed, my desire is to take away the magic of mine. However, in a minor, your desire as a result will take mine “Humanity “. Do you understand that?

“Then let him choose Mine-san! It’s her life! If Minami-San refuses to become a parasite, I will retreat. Minami-san!

Tatsuya continued to close mine from sight to Minoru. But regardless, Minoru shouted to mine.

I don’t want you to die! But you don’t want to take magic either! Please, become like me!

On the face of mine was noticeably severe turmoil. She wasn’t going to become a “parasite.” She could not decide so quickly to discard her humanity. So in this situation she decided to rely on Tacuju, regardless of whether she loses magic or not.

However, these words in Minoru strongly undermined her thoughts.

“I have already said, Minoru.

No sooner had she overcome her indecision, as cold as steel, the voice of Tatsuya answered the words of Minoru.

I refuse.

Tatsuya-san, please, step back! Let me talk to Minami-san!

Minoru fell into a rage. He released Magic in the direction of Tatsuya.

It was the simplest magic of movement. Her task was to move towards Tacuju, nuisance him to talk to mines. However, there was neither a process of acceleration nor a process of deceleration.

It instantly broke the target to its maximum speed. It was an obvious attacking magic.

The reaction of Tatsuya was reflexive but accurate. He laid out a sequence of magic “scattering of the spell”.

Minoru, what are you up to?

“Shut up and step away!

Minoru was well-founded as an outstanding magician. That he would not lose in magical powers was a pillar supporting his mind.

When his magic neutralized, Minoru fell into insanity. He was serious.

He never lost, except in cases of his failure to appear on the fight. Such a reaction was a consequence of his lack of such experience.

For a minor who gave up everything because of a painful body, the thought “While I am healthy… ” was close to a deeply ingrained delusion.

… While he is healthy, he will not lose in magic.

And in one fell swoop the thought turned upside down.

If an inexperienced guy, who turns 17 this year, was confused in such a situation, he would only be able to sympathize. … That’s if he was a regular guy.

However, minor was not “normal “. Now he wasn’t even a man.

Tacuju attacked even stronger and faster than before, magic.

This time Tatsuya again neutralized the magic “scattering of the spell “, but unlike the first time, he did not have too much.

The consciousness of Tatsuya switched to the regime of the ruthless fighting magician.

Having too the magic into it, Tatsuya in an instant shortened the distance between him and Minoru.

He put his right palm to his belly in a minor.

It wasn’t a blow. The force of this movement could be described by the word “soft “.

The next moment the magic was released from the hand of Tatsuya. Shot by magic “Speed ” from zero distance.

This magic had an impact not only on the area to which the palm was applied, but on the whole body in a minor, pushing it back. It would be more accurate to say that the body of Minoru flew back. But the hand of Tatsuya not receive any recoil.

Minoru, who was to hit the door, silently stopped right in front of the door and with a deaf sound sank down on the floor.

Taking the activated Tacuej magic of speed as a support, Minoru used the magic of speed on himself, flew to the door and extinguished inertia to avoid collision. Thus he gained a distance from Tatsuya.

-Miyuki, the zone of suppression of magic maximum power!

Well!

Tatsuya issued this instruction even before the legs of the minor touched the floor.

The zone of suppression of magic Miyuki covered the hospital room simultaneously with the landing of a minor.

Looking in the direction, where was mine, Minoru unlocked the castle and abruptly opened the door.

For its zone of suppression of magic, Miyuki designated the area of action as “Space inside the hospital room “.

Faster than Tatsuya had time to approach the minor, he jumped into the hallway, leaving the area of the magic suppression zone.

Glass of one of the windows leading to the street, crashed into small fragments that flew outside, as if they blowned.

Minoru for a moment met with Tacuej eyes and jumped out of this window, lost the glass.

Tatsuya could not understand the wrong look in Minoru.

“Miyuki, stay and defend mine.

“They!”

I’ll answer the call to Minoru.

Minoru did not escape with flee tail from the zone of suppression of magic Miyuki.

…The battle in the hospital room would have caused unnecessary destruction.

…Mine could have been injured.

Minoru did not want it, and invited Tacuju outside.

If Tatsuya stays here, Minoru will be suspended. But Minoru was obsessed with mines. This could easily be understood by today’s short conversation.

It’s not known when he’s coming back to take mine.

The main priority of Tatsuya was the protection of Miyuki.

Besides, he’s a guy, and mine is a girl. He couldn’t be near her 24 hours a day.

The best choice was to loosen up and catch a minor here and now.

After a minor, Tatsuya jumped into the hospital yard through a broken window.

This hospital room was on the fourth floor.

He could not jump, using only physical abilities of the body, but to open before a minor immediately after landing was not desirable. He was a tough opponent even when he was still a man.

Tatsuya called the inertia control spell from the special “library ” of magic sequences that was in his memory.

In other words, it was activating the magic of inertia control using an instant call.

He neutralized his inertia right at the moment of landing.

In parallel with the use of the inertia control spell by the artificial magic Zone, he activated the magic of the decomposition of the information bodies “Scattering of the spell ” using the natural area of the calculation of magic. In this way he neutralized the systemic magic of releasing a “spark ” released by a minor.

Like I thought, “scatter spells.” When I saw it for the first time, I thought I was mistaken. Successfully use in real battle the magic, which is considered to be so complex that it can be used only in a laboratory environment-as expected from someone who is in direct relationship with Jocuboj.

Minoru spoke in a discreet tone. Looks like his insanity’s already gone.

—one-sided use of force for its obsession. Minor, this is a model of behavior “parasite “.

When Minoru heard this statement, his expression of a person reinstated to a calm state, Naprjaglos again.

“When you were a man, you didn’t behave so smugly.

I’m not smug! And I’m not mistaken!

Minoru hit the Tacuju systemic magic of releasing “Body burning “.

This magic neutralizes the magical protection of the human body, forcibly extracts electrons from the molecules of the body cells, and releases them from the body. It is called “body Burning” because the electrical discharge that passes through the skin looks like a phenomenon of spontaneous combustion of the human body. However, it is actually a terrible magic that destroys cells at the molecular level, depriving them of electrons used in intermolecular relationships.

Tatsuya has laid out a sequence of magic “Body Ignition” directed at it immediately before its activation.

Even the magic of decomposition Tatsuya hardly consonance at the speed of activation of this terrible magic.

The speed of the original minor was already excellent, and after merging with the parasite the speed of activation became even higher.

The miscalculation of Tatsuya was that his words, which were to undermine the mental state of Minoru, gave the opposite effect.

The accuracy of magic minor was not affected by the confusion of his emotions. It was an impression that the agitated state, on the contrary, led to the increase of activity of the zone of calculation of magic.

It was no longer possible to deal with this quickly.

Tatsuo did not want to enter into a serious confrontation with Minoru. Because Minoru didn’t have any hostile intentions when he came to the hospital ward.

Tatsuya fully aware of his lack of communication skills. However, he could not regret it until he neutralizes the minor. Tatsuya applied the “decomposition ” in a minor.

He didn’t use CAD. He couldn’t keep up with the speed of minor if he used CAD. If the seal of the vow had not been completely removed, he would have nothing to counter the speed of Minoru.

Figure minor, which hit the magic of decomposition of information bodies, disappeared completely.

The real body of Minoru appeared a little bit to the right.

Camouflage magic “Parade “. What was Tatsuya was an illusion created by the parade.

Tatsuya released Magic.

The realization that the body appeared to the right of the illusion was rewritten by the realization that the body existed to the left of the place where the illusion was.

Tatsuya The Magic “Kimon subtly “, cheating the sense of direction.

“… Minoru merged not only with the parasite. “

The former ninth laboratory had a tendency to include in modern magic techniques from ancient magic.

The probability that the former ninth laboratory investigated the ancient Continental magic “Kimon subtly ” was not equal to zero.

However, through research they would not be able to come to the same spell “Kimon subtly “.

This magic had characteristic features. Even using the same magic, even getting the same results, if users are different, in the processes and traces of magic appear subtle differences. With the improvement of the optimality and completeness of the particular magic it becomes more difficult to notice these differences, but it also depends on the difference in the level of force with the observer.

“Vision ” Tatsuya clearly saw the personality of Zhou Gunczinja in the used minor “Kimon subtly “.

“When he managed to capture the Ghost Zhou Gunczinja!? “

While Tatsuya mentally talked to himself, signs of the magic of electric discharge began to emerge in the air.

Systemic magic of releasing “Heavenly Thunder “. [Literal translation: Peals Thunder in a cloudless blue sky.]

It’s a stage attack. First, the air goes into the state of plasma, and from there to the target of the attack falls souls of electrons. Then the target of the attack, which is negatively charged, is the flow of cations (ions with positive charge), which remained in the “cloud ” After the first phase of the attack.

“Heavenly Thunder ” Minor was released at a time when Tatsuya was still decomposing “parade ” and “Kimon subtly “. Now was the moment when Tatsuya realized that “Heavenly Thunder ” is activated before he has time to delay his sequence of magic.

Tatsuya chose in his “library ” a sequence of magic “conducting cover “. System magic of release “conducting coating ” is a protective magic that reduces electrical resistance on the surface of wearable clothing and footwear almost to zero, thereby grounding electrical attacks, that is, forcing them to leave in Earth.

He set a call to this magic sequence in an artificial magic zone and tried to activate the “conducting coating ” through an instant call.

However at the same time in Tacuju flew a sequence of magic to increase electrical resistance. In itself, this magic is not so strong, but it has entered into conflict with the definition of “conductive coating “, sounding as “to reduce the electrical resistance to almost zero “. Thus, both magic failed.

On Tacuju, fails the call of protective magic, the electric shower “Heavenly Thunder ” has flown. Compressing teeth to not scream in pain, Tatsuya fell on the ground of the hospital yard.

The land in this yard was covered with grass. and under it, accordingly, usual soil.

The charge received Tacuej, Peretjok into the ground, and cations were also absorbed there.

Tatsuya climbed one knee.

Minoru froze with a surprised face.

Although the pain can be tolerated, but the muscles affected the rain from the electrons should not move freely. … Such was the course of thought in Minoru.

It wasn’t sloppy Minoru. But he could not deny that it goes against common sense.

Using this convenient moment, Tatsuya finally took out the body of a minor “Misty dispersion “.

From the joint of the right leg gefion blood. Minoru, as if losing strength in both legs, and not just in the right, collapsed, zavalivshis on his back.

To completely block the movements of the minor, Tatsuya also targeting him in his left leg, as well as the right and left shoulders. However, what fell has turned out to be a way without content.

Signs of a magical electric discharge began to emerge right behind the Tatsuya.

Without wasting time to turn around, Tatsuya destroyed “Heavenly thunder ”

“by scattering the spell “. At the same time his “gaze ” was focused not only on the sequence of magic “Heavenly Thunder “.

Tatsuya searched for real Minoru in all directions at 360 degrees around him.

As a result, Tatsuya was able to destroy “Hot wind blades ” (a variety of aerial bullets, more similar to flying blades created by adiabatic air compression), which were approaching to it on the right, flyinged directly above the surface of the earth, as if “Crept” on it.

“decomposition ” Tatsuya canceled compression, and hot air of these “blades

”quickly expanded. The land was covered with lawn, so the wind did not cause a cloud of dust, but made the eyes narrow.

With forward eyes, Tatsuya pushed away from the earth.

But he jumped to the left.

On this left side, where Tatsuya was rotated face, signs of excitement were felt.

Excitement from being found.

These indiscriminate sensations of presence reported Tatsuo the exact location of Minoru.

The magic of Lightning, launched right under his feet, was destroyed right before materialized.

The slow cell, which restricts motion, was decomposed immediately after activation.

Flying air bullets and hot air blades dispersed after neutralization of air compression.

Magic Minor, attacking one after another, now carries a force capable of killing.

Neutralizing all the attacks, Tatsuya became with a minor on the distance of the extended arm.

Tatsuya pulled his right hand forward. The index finger of this hand was stretches forward, and the rest of the fingers are clenched into a fist.

This finger penetrated through the clothes and skin in a minor, and made a deep hole in his left arm’s shoulder joint. This was not the result of his finger being reinforced martial arts training. And as a result of the fact that Tatsuya activated “Mist dispersion ” On the tip of the finger.

When aiming with the naked eye or magic vision, the sight will be redirected to the secret technique of the family kudo “Parade “. So he approached and released a “decomposition ” from zero distance. In this case, you can deal damage to the enemy, even if all 5 senses are deceived, not just sight and hearing.

Minoru shouted.

Minoru tried to use the parasite ‘s ability to pull vitality, but Tatsuya removed his finger before that.

The next movement Tatsuya poised the index finger of the left hand in the shoulder joint of the right hand in Minoru.

Minoru could not react, and in his right shoulder there was also a hole. Tatsuya back left arm from the body in Minoru.

However, at that moment Tatsuya got an unexpected counterattack.

His left hand in Minoru was caught by his left hand in his wrist, which was not supposed to be able to move.

Tacuju a sudden sense of weakness. There was a feeling of something pulling out of it through the left wrist.

Don’t psiony. And something that can be called vital energy.

It was the ability of the parasite to pull life force.

Pulling lasted one moment. Right after the Tatsuya was caught by the wrist, he reflexively turned his hand and freed himself from the grasp of the minor.

At the same time, rubjashhim the right palm downwards, he cut his left arm with a minor in the wrist area.

Minoru caught a falling severed part of his left hand with his right hand and jumped back.

He instantly retreated to 5 meters, although he did not put a lot of effort to look at it.

Minoru put severed hand back to the place of the cut.

This time it was turn Tatsuya to open his eyes wide.

Left arm Minoru in the blink of an eye knitted and became the same as before.

Minoru in a smile, seeing the reaction of Tatsuya.

Even if he had such an expression of his face, even if he became a non-human being, the face of Minoru was not completely distorted by evil.

—for the first time, do you see the ability of healing regeneration “Parasite “? Hearing this, Tatsuya remembered that there was already one precedent.

There was a “parasite ” who pretended to be a colleague of Lina and under the guise of an employee Maximilian devices penetrated into the first school. This “parasite “, which Lina called “Mia “, received from Erica a stroke of the sword in the chest area, and this wound instantly healed.

If you look closely, you can see that the wounds in the right leg and in both shoulders have already dragged on. It is obvious that Minoru had the same abilities as the “parasite “, which was called “Mia “.

—… Got it. It seems that there are also individual differences in the abilities of the parasites.

Meanwhile, from a barely noticeable change in the face of Tatsuya, Minoru concluded that not all “parasites ” have the ability to heal quickly.

-“parasites ” abilities differed in appearance and level. Minor, even if you could overcome the weakness of the physical body, merged with the parasite, it does not mean that mines will be cured in the same way.

In minor’s Breath.

Tatsuya missed this moment and waved his right hand in his fist.

Developed under the guidance of Yakumo for the control of parasites, non- systemic magic “Piercing psionovyj projectile “.

This magic was sent in flight to fulfill its originally intended purpose.

The Psionovogo projectile, in fact, has no limit on the speed of flight.

The PSIONOVYJ projectile has no mass and does not exist physically, so it is not limited by the speed of light.

However, piercing psionovyj projectile is not an ordinary psionovyj projectile. And he’s not just like a sealed psionovaja bullet.

“Piercing psionovyj projectile ” is a bullet flying in the information dimension.

Initially, there was no notion of movement in the information dimension.

Although there is a “traffic information”, but changing the location of the information itself is a discrete phenomenon that does not require time. Since the information only overwrites the location, “Where this information is applied “, it does not need time, everything happens instantly.

“Piercing psionovyj projectile” has introduced the concept of movement into this information dimension. The Psionov block, which is essentially an element of information, has been given a definition of “is moved in the information dimension continuously and exclusively “. This is the essence of the armor Psionovogo projectile.

For this reason his movement speed was limited within the speed that his operator could realize, that is Tatsuya. In other words, these limits were limited to the speed at which he could “throw” it himself. Distracting his feelings from the concept of “throw “, he shot “Piercing psionovym projectile “.

Although the flight speed far exceeded 100 km/h, the speed of the bullet was far away. It was even less than the speed of the boom. Of course, it depends on the person, but to notice and evade was quite possible.

Noticing “Piercing psionovyj projectile “, minor reflexively took off. did not jump. He escaped the armor of the Psionovogo projectile by magic flight. “Piercing psionovyj projectile” disappeared, flying through the illusion left “Parade ” in the information dimension in the position “on the surface of the earth “.

The magic of the flight, which was used by Minoru, was not a spell of modern magic developed by Tacuej. It was a spell of the flight of the ancient magic of the “technique of immortal ” from Taoism, consisting in the flight “riding on the Cloud “.

This magic creates a transformed object as “Clouds “, gives it the functions of foot support, hovering in the air and horizontal movement, and thus allows to fly through the air. Tatsuya Magic laid out this cloud, which stood in Minoru.

However, Minoru did not fall. He hovereded in the air, neutralizing gravity with the modern magic of the weight system. The magic of the flight was called “one of the three mysteries of the magic of the weight system ” Because of the difficulty of exercising free maneuvering in the air. However, if you just want to hang in the air or “hover ” in one direction, it is not difficult.

Minoru pulled his hands down with his palms. From these palms, one after another, flew plasma shells.

The air cowered to the size of the golf ball and Ionizirovalsja. It was a fairly simple magic designed to bombard the surface of the Earth from above.

Dispelling plasma in the air, or interfering with the creation of plasma shells to protect against these attacks, Tatsuya poised “Misty dispersion ” in a minor.

However, before the activation of magic never came.

Minoru did not maintain the state of “soaring “, and, in fact, moved through the air jumping.

Instead of flying, he jumped, starting from the supports created in the air.

Leaving the illusion “Parade ” as Posleobrazy.

But the problem was not only that it was difficult to find the real body.

Tatsuya couldn’t decide.

Even if minor is injured by partial decomposition, he has this ability of healing regeneration.

To defeat a minor, it is necessary to deprive his consciousness. However, minor did not stop even the fact that his hand was cut off.

It turns out that “Misty dispersion ” He could neutralize it only in the form of murder…

Tatsuya couldn’t decide to kill Minoru.

The attacks on Tacuju, even deadly, were not capable of killing Tacuju. Neither “Heavenly thunder ” nor “burning the body ” would have killed Tacuju. About plasma shells can not even be mentioned-they also could not stop it.

The magic that could be a real threat to Tatsuya is magic, attacking the mind to which it “recovery ” cannot reach. However, Minoru has not yet used the magic of psychic intervention. Or maybe could not use. In any case, all the magic that Minoru used now, the real threat to the Tatsuya not imagined.

And also, first of all, Minoru never committed hostile actions to Miyuki, and even showed hostility to it. And the motive of Minoru was the treatment of mines.

In other words, the current confrontation can only be considered temporary.

Even if it turned into a “parasite “, there is a high probability that in the future minor can be used.

Is it possible now to lose this valuable combat force named Kudo Minoru…?

This hesitation slowed down the Tatsuya attack.

“But if it goes on like this, we don’t achieve anything. “

If you lay the whole body, then even the ability of healing regeneration will not help.

If you do not spray the whole body and remove only the heart, the parasite may be separated.

If it is possible to deconstruct the heart and blow the parasite “Gram- demolition ” During the time, while it is possible to revive, then after the “recovery ” of the heart of Minoru, he may again become a man…

“… Try it? “

At a time when Tatsuya strengthened his determination to reverse the situation, the minors ‘ attacks stopped.

Tatsuya-san, don’t you think that if this goes on, we won’t achieve anything?

Minoru repeated the thought Tatsuya word for word.

“I can’t seem to break the Tatsuya-Sana defense in ways that exclude murder.

As well as Tatsuya, he could not make a decision to inflict a fatal injury. That meant minor in his message.

Right.

Hearing the short answer of Tatsuya, Minoru nodded with a smile, continuing to hang in the air.

Tatsuya-san. I think that becoming a “parasite ” to regain a “healthy ” Body is the best choice for Minami-san.

I don’t think so.

Clear. Our opinions are like parallel lines.

Minoru looked at the broken window. He was followed by a mine hospital ward.

“But I was able to tell mine-san about my idea.

Minoru again looked at Tacuju.

“For now, I’m suffice this.

Minoru sharply gained height. A transformed cloud reappeared in his legs. And on this cloud he flew away.

—… Gone, then? -relief sigh, muttered Tatsuya, when the flying on the “cloud ” minor disappeared from sight.

That’s not the end. Nothing’s finished with that. Minoru will be back.

“But we can think that at least for today it’s over,” thought Tatsuya.

Minoru’s gone. “Tatsuya, having returned to the House of Mines, said only that.

The Magic Suppression zone prevents magic, but does not block magic waves. Even the Miyuki magic suppression zone works that way. Both Miyuki and Minami had to feel that the Battle of Tatsuya with Minoru was fierce.

But Minami did not ask Tacuju to explain in detail what happened.

Tatsuya directly from the hospital told Maya about the attack in Minoru, requested reinforcements for protection, and then returned home.

Miyuki brought coffee Tatsuo, leisurely on the couch in the living room.

There was no pixie in this apartment. Returning to the first school on Tuesday, Tatsuya returned there and her.

Sip the coffee, Tatsuya returned the cup to the table. This feeling of fatigue, which he now felt, seems to have been the result of pulling out the vital force, lasted only one moment.

“They, you all right…? -Worried asked Miyuki, standing on the other side of the low table, attaching an empty tray to the chest.

“The fight was Ozhestochjonnyj, but it’s okay.

Tatsuya not try to conceal that the fight was difficult.

-Became a “parasite ” Minoru-kun was so strong opponent?

Yes. In minor and earlier had an excellent speed of activation of magic, but becoming a “parasite “, it became even faster. And this ability of healing regeneration has brought problems.

-The ability of healing regeneration?

Yes. During the battle at the service Gate of the first school, “parasite “, Pritvorjavshijsja a colleague Lina, also had this ability.

“The Parasite ” that Lina called “Mia “? Really, it was like she had a powerful self-healing ability.

—The ability of healing regeneration, which has a minor, is either at the level of the ability of the parasite , or even surpasses it.

Is… Indeed, it is problematic.

The beautiful face of Miyuki Pomrachnelo when she said it.

“But what is really worth beware of is not the abilities inherent in the” parasite “. And the force that Minoru had originally owned. As well as the forces of one more person.

-The primordial strength and… Another man’s strength?

Yes.

Tatsuya Namorshhil forehead. Excluding conscious actions, it was unusual for Tatsuya to make such a person.

-Minoru has an elemental view. And I have suspected it for a long time, and today I was convinced of it.

Using magic with the opposite definition of the modification of the phenomenon, Minoru neutralized magic, which Tatsuya tried to activate with an instant call.

It wasn’t a coincidence. And don’t fulfilled the prediction. Tatsuya realized that this was the result of reading the sequence of magic emitted by the enemy, that is, to them.

But then!

Miyuki, though, said it surprised, but her words were not “cannot be “. and “Is it true?” She also did not ask. Tatsuya said he “made sure of it.” Neither consciously nor unconsciously, Miyuki had no doubt.

— … They. And another person you were talking about…?

Just at the moment her consciousness was filled with another question.

-I do not know how, but Minoru somehow assigned knowledge and magic skills Zhou Gunczinja.

Tatsuya answered, did not hesitate. Though it was impossible in terms of common sense, he saw concrete facts despite this common sense.

Zhou Gunczinja? That Zhou Gunczinja!?

Yes.

-You mean that Minoru-kun… For example, found a book on magic left by Zhou Gunczinem, and learned its contents?

Miyuki interpreted words Tatsuya in terms of common sense. If you think that way, your thoughts won’t be confused. However, Tatsuya was not going to hide the facts.

No. Speaking, using simplistic expressions, I think that a minor was swallowed up by Zhou Gunczinja’s ghost.

Miyuki covered her mouth with one hand. Not both, because the other hand pressed the tray to the chest.

— … Does the Kudo family have even such magic?

Tatsuya negatively shook his head on the question of Miyuki, intently ustavivshejsjaing at him.

“They should not have had magic to unite with the ghost. This is contrary to the aims of modern magic. But the magic of subordination of spiritual bodies could well have been.

Tatsuya briefly interrupted and pulled out of his memory easy-to-understand

Miyuki example.

-for example, the puppets-parasites. To finish this humanoid weapon, they needed a magic that controlled the true body of the parasite. Using this kind of magic, a minor could absorb the residual thoughts of Zhou Gunczinja. “Kimon subtly “, which he used in today’s fight, was exactly the same as Zhou Gunczinja.

-it is clear…

Frankly speaking, it was hard for Miyuki to believe that it was possible to swallow the ghost of a magician who died a few months ago.

But if that’s what Tatsuya says, Miyuki could believe it.

—… We must take countermeasures. Magic of the former ninth Laboratory, Continental ancient magic and superpower “parasite “. An adversary who combines all these forces will find it difficult to resist the usual methods of warfare.

Tatsuya frowned, making a dull expression of his face.

“Also, I have to tell elder Kudo about Minoru Minor. Both-UE don’t seem to be talking about it, so I have to tell myself. In addition, we will need the help of the Kudo family.

He had already had to allocate resources to the confrontation “project Dion “, and then there was another problem. Naturally, Tatsuya felt disheartened.

Miyuki stood and looked at such a tacuju anxious gaze.

Tatsuya was in vain worried that Maya would not give the importance of information about Minoru.

Monday, June 17. The next day after there was a senseless battle between Tacuej and Minoru. Tatsuya was summoned to the branch of the Kanto Magic Association.

Today it was not for the sake of persuasion to participate in the “project of Dion “. He was asked to attend an emergency conference of the main clans as an observer. No, perhaps more precisely, as a witness.

In the conference hall of the Tower Bay Hills Yokohama, which is the branch of the Kanto Magic Association, came only 2 people-Tatsuya and Kacuto. Kacuto treated to Tatsuo as a person from the Jocuba family and addressed it in an official tone.

The behavior of Kacuto was as if it were not their duel, which occurred on the last Sunday of last month. However, this behavior could also indicate that the Kacuto has not yet fully digested the information about this case.

In any case, this formal attitude was mutual and from the side of Tatsuya.

The screen of the branch of Kant reflected faces ten people. There were also ten permanent members of the main clans conference.

One of them-kacuto-was present in this conference room and was not included in the image on the screen. Tatsuya, too.

In addition to nine heads of families of the ten main clans, there was another one. And his name was Kudo Rjecu.

By reducing formal greetings to a minimum, they immediately moved to the main issue.

— … I’m not saying I don’t believe it, but I want to ask again.

Ichijo Goks, who had just left the hospital bed, spoke in a vigorous voice confirming that he had already recovered. And he turned to Tatsuo.

-Is it true that Minoru-donors from the family of Kudo became a “parasite “?

He said so. By the sensations of battle with him, I can also say that he has become a “parasite “.

The reaction of ten people on the screen could be divided into three categories: some of them again showed surprise, some did not show any emotion, and some sadly dropped their eyes.

—… And the fact that the goal of Minoru-donors is a sorceress, submissive the family Jocuba, Sakura Minami-Jo, this is also true?

Asked a question popularity the leg belonging to the UDIVIVSHIHSJA group.

“I have also clearly heard it personally from him.

-Was there a special relationship between Minoru-donors and Sakurai Minami-Jo?

To the question Shippo Takumi Tatsuya answered “Do not know “. In fact, it was possible to guess, but personally from these two he did not hear anything. Mine was most likely to respond in the same way as Tatsuya if she was asked directly. And now the mines must be completely confused, not knowing what to think about the minor.

“Let us temporarily postpone the question of the motives of Minoru-donors.

Sajegusa Koichi intervened in the conversation.

“The fact that Minoru-donors turned into a” parasite “, and the fact that he targeting on the magician of the family Jocuba-these are important problems, but I am now wondering, where did the parasite, mastered Minoru-donors?

Really. It does not matter whether the parasites have penetrated from the outside, or their source somewhere in the country, but if you ignore this problem, the damage will be colossal.

Icuva reducing agreed with Koichi.

—… This is… -Last time…

Kudo Rjecu reluctantly began to speak, but he interrupted Tatsuya.

—… When there was an intrusion “parasites “, with the support of his friends, I sealed two “parasites “. So I had to do because at that time I was not aware of the method of definitive destruction of parasites. However, these sealed bodies were stolen by someone. I think these 2 bodies can be the source of the current problem.

“And you don’t know who stole them?”

Unknown.

Tatsuya, not flinching, defiantly answered briefly to the reproachfully question Koichi.

“Haven’t you been investigating?”

—Tokyo is not the territory of the Jocuba family. Koichi was confused by such a direct response Tatsuya.

“At that time, in the parasites, I also collaborated with Mayumi-Jo from the family of Sajegusa, the reveals family, and Erica-Jo of the Chiba family. I also shared information about stolen sealed bodies.

I really heard that.

When Kacuto, as the person mentioned, confirmed these words, Koichi stopped chasing the answers. If Mayumi also heard it, the Sajegusa family also bears responsibility for it.

“One of the bodies I got.

At this point, unexpected words came from Maya.

“While Tatsuya was busy fighting the rest of the parasites, I decided to organize the seizure of the specimens. However, we managed to get only one body.

—… And you didn’t tell Tatsuo-donors? -Asked Futacugi Mai at the same time goggle and uprekajushhim tone.

“It was because I wanted Tatsuya to focus on studying.

Maya gave such an excuse, but everyone who heard him understood that this is an obvious lie, and she just does not want to answer.

“When I received a report from Tatsuya about the current incident, I just in case checked, and found no anomalies with the” parasite “we have stored.

Instead, she declared her innocence.

-So, it is high probability that the source of infection is another body?

“It is dangerous to rush the conclusions. There is too little information about the source of the infection.

The haste of Mucudzuki Atsuko stopped Yatsushiro Rajdzo.

“I believe that the fears of sajegusy-donors and icuvy-donors are quite reasonable. Should we not give priority to solving already known problems?

Right. You’re quite right. -Agreed Atsuko with the remark Rajdzo.

The known problem implied what to do with Minoru.

—… Excuse us, elder, but if he’s really a parasite, we can’t leave it unattended.

I see it.

With a face on which attempts to conceal emotion were read, Kudo Rjecu nodded. His son, Kudo Makoto, might not have been able to show such determination.

In the conference took part not Makoto-father Minoru and head of the family Kudo, and Rjecu, because officially Makoto was busy internal affairs of the family Kudo. But the real reason, apparently, was that Makoto decided that it would be difficult for him to talk about it.

-it was confirmed that the parasite, lost its owner, flies away in search of a new owner.

At that moment Tatsuya attracted attention. All those present should have known about this, but most people now had such faces as if they had forgotten it and they were reminded of it.

So you need to mobilize magicians who can attack the spiritual bodies?

“Isn’t resilient going to neutralize Minoru-donors without killing him? — The question Goks politely expressed his objection to Takumi.

-I also agree with this opinion. -The LEG supported the opinion of Takumi.

-Tatsuya-Donors, how do you know the way of sealing? -asked reducing from the screen of the conference video background.

“This know-how was given to him by me.” said Rjecu before Tatsuya had a chance to answer.

Elder?

“Excuse me, elder, but where did you get the” parasites “sealing method?

After the reflex question reducing, Goks asked Rjecu a clear question. The sight of Goks was filled with suspicion. This could be understood even by the image on the screen.

“It’s a sensei, of course he’ll know that. The spell that is used as the “parasite ” seal that we have, by the way, was also received from Sensei.

At that moment Maya intervened, cooling tension in his own words. After that it was possible to see how sharpness in a look goks disappeared.

“So if the elder gives us a way to deal with Minoru-donors, we have the countermeasures, but…

Mai in the uncharacteristic of her verbose manner took care of the improvement of the general mood.

-The goal of Minoru-donors-is Sakura Minami-Jo. I understand that right?

“I believe that his ultimate goal is to get mine.

Tatsuya gave a positive answer to the MAI question asking for confirmation.

—So, will the most effective way to spread the nets for catching around the hospital in Tokyo, where there is a mine-Jo?

Without shame on his face, Koichi proposed a plan using mine as bait.

Yes, we’ll do it. And I, in turn, organize mine protection.

Instead of objections, Maya gave such an answer with an indifferent smile. These words contained a stinging hint that “There is no need to lend the power of the Sajegusa family for protection.” Koichi frowned heavily on it.

Jocuba-Donors. I would also like to offer my family’s help in the defense organization. was followed by a proposal from Kacuto, announcement the situation.

If only you are satisfied to be outside the hospital…

-Quite comfortable, thank you.

“Then I rely on you.

Having left not in affairs Koichi, Maya and Kacuto conducted dialogue among themselves.

What do we do?

“Although the ultimate goal of Minoru-donors is Sakura Minami-Jo, but there is also a possibility that he will return to the House of the Kudo family. - expressed his opinion Takumi, answering the question Atsuko.

Since yesterday, the whereabouts of Minoru is unknown. He did not return to the house of Kudo, but one cannot definitely say that he will not come back.

“Of course, if he shows up, we’ll grab him. We’re not going to hide him.

We’re not worried about that. “The Mai answered in a soothing tone to the words of RJECU.

-Despite the fact that there was concern about the state of health in Minoru- donors, he was an outstanding magician from the very beginning. It is impossible to tell in advance, what force it began to possess, becoming “parasite “. If you don’t mind, I’d like to offer help to my people. “Mai offered to send reinforcements to help Rjecu.

“If necessary, I will help. -Using the case, connected Goks.

I’ll be grateful. In that case, Futacugi-donors, can I ask you for help? Ichijo- Donors, I’ll be grateful to you, too, if you send reinforcements when you need them.

Well.

Agree.

Mai and Goks expressed their consent to the POKLONIVSHEMUSJA on the Rjecu screen.

“Then the Jocuba family is directly involved in the protection of Sakura Minami-Jo. The Sajegusa family is engaged in the seizure of Minoru-donors. My family reveals guards the approaches to the Sakura Minami-Jo Hospital. The Futacugi family organizes reinforcements in the home of the Kudo family, and the Ichijo family organizes a second wave of reinforcements. Let the rest of the families be ready. Are you okay?

One after another heard voices of approval for the words of Kacuto. Thus, the course taken by the ten main clans was defined.

The arrangement of the conference hall was left to the staff of the Magic Association.

Tatsuya and Kacuto left the hall together and headed for the elevator.

They walked not side by side, Tatsuya walked one step diagonally behind Kacuto.

He wasn’t walking right behind to avoid getting into the blind zone. So it was as a result of anxiety Tatsuya, not to show hostility to Kacuto.

They didn’t talk to each other. They just walked in silence.

They really had nothing to say. In the battle between them would not be strange, if one of them died, if the other acted differently. A month has not passed since then. Just because they were both not hostile, it was possible to see that they are already grown people. Or was it because of their experience of real battles?

However, the silence between them was violated by a third party hiding in the blind zone of the corridor.

-Reveals-kun, Tatsuya-kun, the conference is over?

-Sajegusa… Why are you here?

Despite the fact that Mayumi herself was a party to that conflict, she spoke with them carefreely.

‘ Cause I’m interested.

Kacuto felt a headache from such an abstract answer Mayumi. Tatsuya thought that he understood his feelings perfectly.

“The conference is over.

It’s pretty fast. What did you decide?

“Ask your father,” I wanted to say to Kacuto. But they had been familiar for a long time, so he knew that she was not a woman who would retreat when she heard such a thing.

—… It’s better not to talk about it here. Then let’s go to the guest room.

In the Kanto branch of the Magic Association (as well as at the headquarters in Kyoto), several private rooms were prepared for negotiations with an elevated level of secrecy. Despite the fact that Mayumi was not a frequent guest here, but these rooms have been used many times.

Tatsuya-kun, too.

Even without continuing, Tatsuya realized what Mayumi said. He didn’t have any urgent business today. Miyuki will stay in school for a long time, and he had a lot of leisure.

— … Ok.

Tatsuya was not this “glad “, but still accepted the invitation Mayumi.

“Tatsuya-kun, I hope you’ll be satisfied with black tea?”

Thank.

Entering the guest room, Mayumi The first thing went to brew tea. She asked only tacuju about her favorite drink. Kacuto she didn’t ask.

Although Tatsuya could succumb to the temptation to ask for something else, he showed prudence in order not to create unnecessary hassles.

Mayumi put 3 cups of black tea on the table and sat down herself. Her place was opposite Kacuto and near Tacuej.

Drink until it’s cold.

On the advice that sounded like coercion, Tatsuya and Kacuto took their cups and brought to their mouths. Black tea, brewed Mayumi, has become tastier compared to school years.

For her, it was like a ritual of satisfaction. Mayumi put the cup on the table, being in a good mood.

When all the cups were returned to the saucers, Kacuto looked at the Mayumi.

So, what did you want to know?

All. Mayumi answered the question of Kacuto.

Sajegusa, do you know what was the subject of the Conference?

-Minoru-kun became a “parasite “. -without delay answered Mayumi to the question Kacuto. “That’s why we discussed countermeasures against him, didn’t they?

Although Mayumi showed that she understood the situation, her voice was calm. Tacuju is alerted.

Do you really understand the meaning? You’re pretty familiar with Minoru- donors, right?

Looks like Kacuto also worried it.

-Naturally I understand it.

Mayumi calmly answered the question without angrying and showing reluctance to answer.

“I also took part in the disturbances of the” parasites “last time. Although I didn’t really benefit from it.

In the last sentence, her tone was a little disgruntled. But besides that, Mayumi spoke in cold blood.

…Knowing that Minoru became a “parasite “, because you can guess what was decided? -instead of indwelling in confusion Kacuto, spoke Tatsuya.

-Catch a Minoru-kun, seal it, extract the parasite, and deal with it, right? But how exactly do you catch him?

Tatsuya and Kacuto exchanged views. By these views they confirmed the agreement that it is possible to tell about this Mayumi, and also have decided, who will speak. Kacuto spoke.

—… We will capture Minoru-donors by ambushing him when he comes to kidnap Sakura Minami-Jo.

“Are you going to do that, reveals-kun?”

No. Sajegusa-Donors took on this role.

-Uh, my family…?

Calm expression of the face of Mayumi escaped. However Skrivivshiesja from the discontent of her lips she quickly corrected a polite smile.

-Sakura Minami-san-Is it classmate Kasumi-chan, “Sakura-san “?

Yes. Mine and the younger sister-san-classmate.

In his response, Tatsuya used “Younger sister-san ” instead of “Kasumi ” without “san “, which is usually used, referring to it.

—To use as bait a girl from the second year of school? Tatsuya-kun, does that suit you?

Mayumi looked at Tacuju condemning look.

“Minoru will come to mine regardless of our intentions.

-In the hospital, where the Sakura-Jo, will be located people of the family Jocuba, and outside will patrol people from my family reveals. For the safety of Sakura-Jo you can not worry. -Added Kacuto to the words of Tatsuya.

-but if the security is so serious, the Minoru-kun may not come at all?

“In this case, we’ll just figure out a different plan. “Kacuto responded clearly to Mayumi fears.

-Clear…

Although the voice of responding Mayumi was cold, it seemed to be somewhat satisfied.

-So, reveals-kun and Tatsuya-kun will work together to solve this problem?

Kacuto frowned without understanding the intentions of Mayumi.

“She loves to poke her nose out of her own business,” thought Tatsuya, and in her mind, she had a smile over her goodness.

—not limited to this case, the families of reveals and Jocuba have partnerships as members of the ten main clans. Temporary conflicts should not grow into permanent ones.

-Clear…

The answer was the same as last time. But unlike last time, Mayumi smiled.
