"She is even less simple than that."
Kaito silently lanted this in response to Miko's words.
Among his current selves, Acheron was considered the strongest combat asset.
"Oh? Then... just how not simple is i?"
Seeing an opportunity to discuss matters concerning i, Miko imdiately beca interested.
It could be said that she had always wanted to figure out why i looked so much like Makoto.
Was it a coincidence?
Or was there really so unknown connection?
"She is very strong."
Failing to pick up on the underlying aning in Miko's words, Kaito simply stated bluntly that she was strong.
There was no helping it; Acheron was indeed strong. That point was indisputable.
Miko: "..."
The look of anticipation on her face vanished instantly, and Miko did not ask anything further.
It was obvious that this guy, Kaito, did not want to say much more.
"Alright, they have already taken down all the Visions. Let's go."
At this mont, the soldiers had already walked up to Kaito, holding bags filled to the brim with Visions.
"Are they all taken?"
Standing up from the chair, Miko asked as she looked at the statue.
"Definitely all taken. Let's go."
Holding two full bags in his hands, Kaito walked back the way they had co without turning his head.
Since the Visions on the statue had been collected, there was no need to stay here any longer.
Not a single one left...
At this ti, Miko, having walked near the statue, was looking up at the empty monunt.
Although Kaito's deliberate refusal to talk about i just now had annoyed her slightly, Miko's mood imdiately improved at the thought of Ei's reaction tomorrow.
Such an earth-shattering event would surely shock all of Inazuma.
"Miko, ti to go."
Just as Miko was smiling strangely, Kaito walked up to her side.
"Oh, okay."
Having not noticed Kaito beside her at all, Miko, suddenly hearing his voice, turned her head to look at him and nodded.
Afterward, the two walked towards the Ritou Inn together.
Ritou Inn.
Bang—
"Finally back. What ti is it?"
Once back at the Ritou Inn and having closed the door, Kaito asked himself the ti. He then looked up at the clock on the wall. "It's almost three o'clock. I can't believe it's so late."
Looking at the ti on the wall, Kaito appeared sowhat surprised.
"Yes, it's three o'clock. Ti to sleep."
Saying this, Miko lay directly onto the bed, positioning herself on her side with her back facing the other half of the bed.
"Sleep, sleep."
Snap—
Accompanied by the sound of a switch flipping after Kaito spoke, the entire room was instantly plunged into darkness.
A while later.
Hmm?
Why haven't I felt anyone get on the bed yet?
Is this guy, Kaito, that light?
Lying on her side and looking into the pitch-black room, Miko couldn't help but think this.
She had originally slept on the edge of the bed to hint that Kaito could co up and sleep too—as long as there was so distance between them, it was fine. However, she never felt anyone get on the bed, which she found very strange.
Is this guy sleeping on the floor?
Still staring into the dark room, the sideways-lying Miko couldn't help but wonder.
But the room was quiet, and she didn't imdiately turn over to check the situation.
After all, if Kaito was already on the bed and looking her way, wouldn't that be awkward?
Another while passed.
That guy must be asleep by now, right?
Pondering this question, Miko felt she couldn't hold back anymore. She was now simply too curious about where exactly Kaito was sleeping.
Forget it...
I'll pretend to go to the restroom...
After thinking it over, Miko decided to get up under the pretext of using the restroom to take a look.
"Sigh, drank too much water."
Muttering this sentence to herself, Miko stood up from the bed. Then, she saw Kaito lying on a strange chair.
This guy!!!
After all that, he was on this weird chair all along...
Seeing Kaito sleeping on what looked like a foldable chair, Miko was furious.
She had already done all that just now, yet Kaito still hadn't co to lie on the bed. At this mont, Miko really wanted to hit soone.
Forget it...
I'll wait and see what the situation is tomorrow...
Staring at Kaito sleeping on the chair in the darkness for a good while, Miko ultimately did nothing and lay back down on the bed.
Now she didn't need to sleep on her side at the edge of the bed anymore; she slept directly in the middle.
It had to be said, sleeping alone in a large bed was quite nice, though that was indeed how she had always done it before.
The next day. Morning.
"The Visions... they're all gone???"
When the sky was just turning bright, a soldier guarding the statue suddenly discovered that the Visions on it were all missing. This caused him to cry out in surprise imdiately, drawing the other soldiers to turn around and check the situation. Then, they all saw that empty statue.
"Imdiately... Imdiately report this to Her Excellency, the Shogun!"
