Date a Live:Date Under The Moon Chapter 132 132: Searching for Natsumi

At DEM's British headquarters, a heavy atmosphere was taking shape.

The n seated in the conference room were all directors of the company, and every one of them had an arm in a cast. That was the bitter result they had tasted not long ago after their plan to overthrow Isaac Westcott failed.

However, human desire had no limit.

Or perhaps, to them, continuing to live beside a monster like Westcott was even more unbearable than rebelling, failing, and being killed.

In the end, Westcott was that kind of man. Though his behavior and manners were as refined as a gentleman's, anyone who had ever co into contact with him understood that the man was so kind of being beyond human. Yes, Westcott was that chilling.

And now, even though his authority had only just been challenged, Westcott had left Britain without a care and gone to Tengu City in Japan. It was as if, to him, there was sothing incomparably precious there. Compared to that, the board's sches and tricks were no more than children's gas, not worth ntioning.

But Murdoch would not let this chance go.

No matter what reason Westcott had for leaving, it gave him enough of an opportunity—a chance to bury that man together with Tengu City.

"…Do you know how many DEM satellites are currently in space?"

He looked at the other mbers of the board and said:

"The correct answer is twenty-three. Among them, eight are already abandoned. If we make a satellite fall into Tengu City…"

Murdoch's plan was insane.

He intended to create a disaster like a teor impact, directly killing Westcott, who was currently in Tengu City, with an unknown AOE.

However, this plan was far too absurd. Soon, several directors raised objections.

From the friction and loss the satellite would suffer while passing through the atmosphere, to the aftermath of destroying Tengu City. If the whole world found out that DEM was behind it, no one would let them off.

However… after they heard Murdoch's explanation, they unanimously chose to agree.

The friction from the atmosphere could be offset by launching Bandersnatch from the ground to deploy a Realizer field.

As for the aftermath, they only needed to sound the spacequake alarm, then use an airship to block information. Afterward, they could bla the tragedy on an ultra large scale spacequake.

Simple. Effective.

And utterly mad.

Perhaps the directors present were all madn, because not a single person opposed Murdoch's plan…

"…Ooooh…"

On the night of October 26th, Shido collapsed onto the tatami floor in the room, entering a burned out state.

Today, Natsumi had still been using her powers, tornting Shido with one trick after another. Because it had been discovered that he and Mikoto slept together, he had no choice but to go on a date with everyone.

While walking down the street, he had been turned into a pervert wearing only a single pair of underwear.

When he went to the bathroom, the won's restroom and n's restroom were swapped.

While several loli were following behind him, the plastic bag in his hand sohow turned transparent and beca a tote bag filled with vibrating rod shaped objects and boxes of condom.

[No more. If we don't find Natsumi soon, I'm going to go insane…]

He lay on the tatami and thought in despair.

On the other side, Shido was not the only one suffering. Kotori, Reine, and Mikoto were also having a headache over Natsumi's matter.

"Hello, Origami? Mm… it's … I wanted to ask, did you ever learn sniping and counter-sniping, scouting and counter scouting, or similar courses in AST?"

Mikoto sat in her room and called Origami.

Although Natsumi could change Shido's and the girls' appearances without anyone noticing, in order to do sothing like that, being able to observe Shido's life properly was a basic requirent.

While there were people on Fraxinus with those skills, they did not seem to have made much progress over the past two days. So Mikoto placed her hopes on Origami. As an AST mber, Origami was always reliable in this area.

[I see. I understand.]

After hearing Mikoto's explanation, Origami roughly understood the situation.

[Leave it to . I will definitely find Natsumi.]

After hanging up, she stood and took out a map of Tengu City from her bookshelf.

Based on the location of the shrine, Origami quickly marked out several places that would be easy to use for surveillance.

After stuffing her backpack with binoculars, a map, a flashlight, and other necessary tools, the girl stepped into the city's night.

First, she went to a relatively tall building in the city. From there, she could not see Mikoto's house, but she could clearly observe the locations she had deduced earlier.

Through the binoculars, Origami confird that several ideal observation points were all occupied by people wearing black suits and sunglasses. From their behavior and presence, they were definitely not ordinary people. They were probably personnel dispatched by Mikoto's organization.

However…

[They are still too careless.]

Origami shook her head. Precisely because those were ideal observation points, it was easy to imagine that soone would be watching them. If she were Natsumi, she would never consider those locations.

She crossed out the buildings watched by n in black. Those places could be left to Mikoto's organization.

After that, Origami left the building and stepped into the night once again.

After setting up hidden listening devices at several observation points that were farther away, she ca to an unremarkable small warehouse.

From the window of this warehouse, she could clearly see the last few observation points, and the remaining blind spots were all covered by listening devices. If Natsumi made any move—whether footsteps or speech—Origami would notice.

After arranging everything, she leaned beside the window, bit into a compressed biscuit, and began to wait patiently.

As long as Natsumi had not given up on harassing the shrine, Origami believed she would definitely catch that troubleso Spirit.

October 27th, morning.

"Shido! Give another fried egg!"

Just as Tohka was full of appetite and wanted another serving of breakfast.

"Right, let's see if Shido is on the morning news."

Just as Mikoto spoke half out of mischief, half out of genuine concern that Shido might appear on TV because of his perverted behavior yesterday.

"There's no way I'd be on TV! Tohka, here's your fried egg."

Just as Shido was busy in the kitchen, while occasionally glancing at the TV news with a guilty look.

That light appeared once again.

After the light faded…

"Kyaa!"

Mikoto let out a small cry.

"Shock. What is with this outfit?"

Yuzuru looked down at herself and showed a shy, surprised expression as well.

Not only them, the other Spirits also blushed or cried out in surprise. Their outfits had been transford into sothing like Persian dancer costus. Under the transparent veils, only bikini underwear barely covered their most important parts.

anwhile, Shido stood blankly in front of a throne, dressed in noble clothing.

Below him, a group of little loli dancers blushed and cried out, creating a scene overflowing with a sinful air and a sense of criminality. (TL:kewk~)

The walls had been rcilessly removed, leaving only a few pillars supporting the ceiling and exposing everything inside to the eyes of passersby. On the roof, there was even a sign that read: "My Personal Harem."

"Reine-san, did you find her?"

It was Natsumi again. Shido no longer had the luxury to be embarrassed. Ignoring the people who had already taken out their phones to call the police, he tapped his earpiece and asked.

[…Found her. She is about one kiloter away, inside a building under construction in the city center.]

___________

At the sa ti Reine reported the address to Shido, on the other side…

"Found her!"

Origami accurately caught sight of Natsumi.

It was a building under construction. There was no need to use binoculars. With the naked eye alone, she could confirm the witch hiding inside.

"Eh…"

However, the mont she confird the Spirit's location, Origami's consciousness suddenly cut off. (TL:oh hell naw)

(TL's ps:Ah~ finally done with the If route of my other novel~ I can die peacefully now~, sumr vacation and all, though I still have so sumr sester but it won't be as tiring as normal sester, so I will have more ti on my hand~, maybe I should reward myself and stop translating for a while and listening all 160 hours audiobook version of "This is not the date I wanted" all over again before continuing translating any more chapter of all 3 book I'm currently doing lol....ahh....I want to translate "Date under the moon" to Vietnase too and make an audiobook version of it...but I'm kinda lazy translating this long ass novel to another language all over again...and TTS Ai cost like dump truck..can't afford that...ugh....)
