The mories of the survivors in the convenience store were burned by Asakura after he understood the essence of [Candle].
But [Candle] was ultimately not [Fire], and Asakura had not yet reached the point where he could completely perfectly control the Magic. Extrely precise operations might be more difficult for him than deliberately causing a wildfire to burn down a mountain.
"Will the mories I lose also include Asakura-kun's?"
Kagamihara Nadeshiko seed to realize sothing and asked softly.
"Yes."
Asakura nodded.
Actually, it wouldn't be completely burned away, but it was estimated that in that situation, even if she saw him again later, the girl would only have a subtle sense of familiarity, like 'I think I know this person.'
"That's really a sha."
The girl smiled a little sadly.
"It seems you've made your decision."
Asakura looked at her.
"Yes."
The girl nodded: "Personally, I really would like to continue being friends with Asakura-kun, but if sothing like that happens again... if Asakura-kun isn't around, things will definitely beco very! Very! Bad. I can't bring danger to my sister and Shima Rin."
"I understand. Then, get ready..."
Asakura raised his hand, and an orange-red fla danced at his fingertips, like the fla of a candle.
"Wait, wait a minute!"
Yuigahama Yui suddenly shouted loudly.
"What is it?"
Asakura looked at her.
"It feels too lonely to end it like this when everyone hasn't even gotten to know each other! My na is Yuigahama Yui, what's your na, Kagamihara-san?"
Yuigahama Yui asked cheerfully.
"Nadeshiko, my na is Kagamihara Nadeshiko."
"Nadeshiko? What a nice na. Where do you live? What do you like? Do you have any pets?"
"Eh? Eh eh?"
Kagamihara Nadeshiko was a bit overwheld by the string of questions.
"Are you on a blind date?!"
Gokou Ruri couldn't bear it any longer and elbowed Yuigahama Yui in the stomach, making the latter fall down, crying "Cramp, I'm cramping!"
"That's right, Takuma-kun is doing sothing important, Yuigahama-san, don't cause trouble."
Asagumo Chihaya also followed up, pulling Yuigahama Yui, wanting to drag her to the sofa.
"I'm not causing trouble, I just want Nadeshiko not to forget us!"
Yuigahama Yui said aggrievedly.
"What you're doing now is just causing trouble. Please wait patiently here."
Asagumo Chihaya retorted: "Making friends can be done after Kagamihara-san's mories are processed, right?"
"No, to prevent Kagamihara-san's mories from becoming disordered, it's best to send her ho imdiately after dealing with her curse and mories related to Mount Kumotori, and leave before she wakes up again."
Asakura suddenly said.
"See? If we're going to be friends, it has to be now!"
Yuigahama Yui imdiately said proudly.
"No, because Kagamihara-san's presence here is also related to the curse, so the mories of this place must also be cleared."
Asakura said rcilessly.
"Eh, how could this be..."
So the antennae on Yuigahama Yui's mochi imdiately drooped listlessly.
Although Kagamihara Nadeshiko still managed a smile, she was clearly quite dejected.
The atmosphere thus subtly grew heavy.
"My na is Gokou Ruri, and I'm a student at Chiba Prefectural Chiba Exhibition School."
Gokou Ruri suddenly said.
Asagumo Chihaya seed to understand sothing and also said to Kagamihara Nadeshiko: "My na is Asagumo Chihaya, and I'm a student at Chiba Municipal Soubu High School."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko looked at the two, and a little light seed to return to her eyes.
"Asakura Takuma, also a student at Soubu High School."
Asakura sighed, and although he felt it was futile, he still said it.
"Kagamihara Nadeshiko, from Motosu High School."
The girl finally showed a big, bright smile again, just like when she first t Asakura last night, and extended her hand to him.
Asakura shook her hand out of politeness.
Unexpectedly soft.
"It seems Motosu High School isn't particularly far away."
Yuigahama Yui said thoughtfully, "I think I've heard of that school before."
"It's probably about half of Tokyo away from Chiba."
Asagumo Chihaya recalled, "I rember it being in Yamanashi."
"In that case, if anything happens, we might be able to rush over and help."
Gokou suddenly interjected.
"No, we wouldn't make it..."
Asagumo Chihaya retorted, "Do you know how many train stops it is from Soubu High School?"
"But now the situation has changed, and an unknown darkness once again shrouds the land. Only by preparing for the worst can we avoid the sorrow of being powerless."
Gokou countered, neither humble nor overbearing.
"What Gokou ans is that there have been a lot of supernatural occurrences recently, and instead of being helpless and waiting for disaster to strike next ti, it's better to keep the mories so she can ask us for help if it really happens."
Yuigahama Yui translated.
Gokou ca back to her senses, realizing that she had accidentally activated her usual chuunibyou mode in front of Asakura. Her small face flushed, and she pretended to look at the scenery as if nothing had happened.
Although Asakura didn't know what was so interesting about the sowhat dirty ceiling of the Clubroom.
"Hmm, what Gokou said also makes sense..."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko imdiately wavered.
That's right, even if the mory was erased, the chance of encountering sothing supernatural would be much lower, but it didn't an it was 0. If she encountered it again in the future, she would indeed have no way to solve it. On the contrary, keeping the mory would allow her to know that she could ask Asakura-kun and the others for help.
"Having a solution is good, but prevention is the most important, isn't it?"
Asagumo Chihaya clearly disagreed with this view. Although she had a bit of her own hidden agenda, she largely presented her opinion from the other party's perspective: "It takes at least two hours by train from Chiba to Yamanashi. If you have a private car, it's fine, but relying on a train that stops at every station as a ans of transportation, you won't make it in ti for an ergency!"
"Y-you're right..."
Kagamihara Nadeshiko was overwheld by Asagumo Chihaya's aura, and she sat up straight on the floor again, waiting for Asakura to burn away her mories.
"Actually, it might not be truly too late."
But then Asakura suddenly said.
"What?"
Asagumo Chihaya, who hadn't expected to be backstabbed by Asakura, was stunned.
"I was going to tell you later, but now is a good ti to bring it up."
Asakura walked to the wall and beckoned to them, "Co here, I have sothing to show you."
