Rei Ao's house.
Mafuyu Kirisu ca over too. She looked anxiously at Furuhashi Fumino, who was in the midst of a phone call.
After a mont, Fumino put down her cellphone, her lips dry. "Teacher… I can't get through to Ogata-san's phone. It says she's out of service range."
"How is that possible?!"
Mafuyu's eyes went wide.
Yes, the fact that Ogata Rizu still hadn't arrived was very strange. Even if she went back to school to retrieve sothing she'd forgotten, it shouldn't have taken this long—already more than an hour had passed. So Fumino had tried calling her but couldn't get through; the prompt said she was out of the service area. Realizing sothing was seriously wrong, she had hurriedly called Mafuyu. After hearing the situation, Mafuyu also felt sothing bad was going on.
She tried calling Ogata Rizu's ho phone, but they said Ogata hadn't returned. Which ant Ogata Rizu was now missing!
Facing her student's disappearance, Mafuyu Kirisu started to panic. She said in a serious tone, "I'll head to the school to look for her. Furuhashi, be ready to call the police at any mont!"
Just then, Sakurajima Mai interjected, "No need. Rei Ao has already found her."
"Huh?" Both turned to her in puzzlent.
Mai explained, "I just notified Rei Ao, and he went to school and found Ogata Rizu-san. He'll be back soon."
"R-really?" Fumino sounded astonished.
Mai nodded earnestly. "Why would I lie about sothing like that?"
She was, in fact, lying. The person who found Ogata Rizu wasn't Rei Ao—he was still off in Shinoa's world. It was Tohru who traced Ogata's whereabouts. Lies needed covering up, so Mai had quickly summoned Rei Ao in the chat, never mind if he was busy "plucking weeds" with Shinoa at that mont.
…
Sakurajima Mai: "@Rei Ao, we have a problem here. Ogata Rizu has gone missing!"
Rei Ao: "Missing?"
Sakurajima Mai: "To be precise, she got pulled into another world sohow."
Stella: "Sothing strange going on again over on your side?"
Tohru: "Let explain."
Tohru: "That girl got dragged into another world by a spatial distortion at your school. It's the sa place where I used to live—the Dragon Realm."
Frieren: "I see. So a girl connected to Rei Ao stumbled into another world."
Mikoto Misaka: "…Weird developnt. But since it's Tohru's world, can't you just bring her back?"
Tohru: "No can do."
Saeko Busujima: "There's so difficulty?"
Tohru: "It looks like soone's been reinforcing the barrier between our two worlds. The stronger the being trying to cross, the heavier the resistance. And…if I return now, I probably won't be able to co back here again."
She was sure her father would grab hold of her. Tohru didn't want to be separated from her new family.
Rei Ao: "Sigh. Got it. Things here are mostly wrapped up. I'll head back right away."
Mine and the others understood the situation, feeling a bit disappointed but not forcing it.
After tidying up Shinoa's clothes, Rei Ao asked softly, "Need to heal you up a bit?"
"… …"
Shinoa gave him a side glance and stood up with a sowhat stiff posture.
"I'm not so frail I'd collapse from one ti."
But inwardly, she couldn't help thinking Rei Ao was a monster—in every aspect. She'd never heard of anyone so…enduring.
Esdeath, having seen the news in the chat as well, had a sparkle in her eyes.
"Seems we'll have to end this ga sooner than planned."
She, too, had had enough fun.
"Damn you!!!"
A black wing was already broken off, the King of Salt Hyakuya Yūichirō battered and furious. The King of Salt, who should have been so high and mighty, had been toyed with from start to finish by a human insect—his rage soared.
He'd hardly managed to touch Esdeath.
"Hmph."
The only thing that displeased Esdeath was that this inhuman lifeform wouldn't submit to her. She withdrew her sword and folded her arms. The mont King of Salt Yūichirō tried to seize the chance for a counterattack—
Mahapadma!
Pause!
Esdeath activated her ultimate skill. Everything in the area froze in place, including the King of Salt Yūichirō with all his salt spears. In that stillness, Esdeath approached him. Without resistance, the King of Salt was fully encased in ice.
Clang!
Her sword flashed.
Crack!
The body of King of Salt Hyakuya Yūichirō shattered like broken biscuits.
[Ding! Trade Complete!]
[Ding! You have obtained "Cursed Gear: Shikama Dōji!"
Shinoa felt her heart flutter slightly at that announcent.
"You…you're heading back now, aren't you?"
She wasn't quite sure how to feel about Rei Ao—after all, he was the first man she'd deeply shared an "experience" with.
"Yes, sothing ca up there, so I have to return," he said, gently kissing Shinoa on the lips while she was too stunned to react, then pulling away. "Use this power to protect yourself. Next ti we et, I'll chase you down for sure."
Leaving that behind, he and the others returned. In a blink, only Shinoa was left alone on the rooftop. She stared blankly ahead for a long ti, then slowly raised a hand to touch her lips. The moist warmth lingered. She gradually ford a smile different from her usual calm or feigned grin.
"Rei Ao, just as everyone in the chat group said, you're definitely a romantic scoundrel."

Though Rei Ao left, ti in that world wouldn't stop. Not long after, the Imperial Demon Army arrived at the school.
anwhile, in Sanguinem—the vampire city far from human habitation—the Third Progenitor, Vampire Queen Krul Tepes, heard the news. Seated on her throne, the pink-haired woman narrowed her eyes.
"Ferid and Crowley… so they'd really tead up."
"Hmph. Good riddance if they're dead."
