「I’ve adjusted the afternoon members as well.」 Shinou was the first to speak. She’s really a quick one.
「I want to be with Tsoujun-kun~」
From the way she’s pouting, she must have been left out of the afternoon members.
「Huh, my participation has been approved for the afternoon. Please take care of me.」
Kaneki from the kendo club looked delighted. 「Yeah, take care.」
While guarding the house is an important role, she wanted to fight.
From our side, having her join after learning to dodge attacks is a welcome addition.
「I’ll also keep Shikushie and Akane.」
「Then, the members are Takanoha, Inshin, and Kaneki?」
「Yes. Do you have any issues?」 She smiled as if testing us. 「No, it’s fine.」
We can fly with Shouji’s phantoms and protect ourselves with Seirin’s barrier.
Hiding our presence and defending ourselves, while being able to attack from the sky is our basic style.
Last time, they probably formed the team considering ground combat, but they must have judged that specializing in aerial battles would yield better results after experiencing actual combat.
Looking at Inugai and Shippuu, Inugai is smiling while soothing Momoko, but Shippuu looks a bit disappointed.
“I think there will definitely be a time when Shippuu’s speed will be relied upon in the future.”
“Haha, I said the same thing.” “But her disappointment is a different matter.” “Yes.”
Would they be taken off the roster for the next match?
As for her, she probably wants to keep performing.
“And also, Kouya Sou. By not bringing Yūko Hyakuhara with us, we lose a means of sharing information.”
“Oh, right. Then we’ll ask Seirin to get someone to give us permission to pass through. We have a walkie-talkie here.”
“Yes, I’ll ask her. From now on, we have to work hard enough to be trusted with a walkie-talkie.”
“Haha, I’ll secure one today.”
Actually, they already have three, but the person they’ll give it to has already been decided.
“Everyone, there’s a place we need to go before we leave, so please wait a moment.”
I had already told the others, so it wasn’t a problem, but the members of the Shoukou party looked puzzled. “You’re meeting with other collaborators?” “Well, something like that.”
“You’re an indispensable person, so be careful.”
The class mob seemed to think I was an important person.
No, that’s probably not the case on this desert island.
I should be careful not to get carried away and remember my place. “I’ll be careful.”
I mount Mikuron and leave the barrier.
Mikuron doesn’t hide her dislike for the person she’s about to meet.
Well, she did get kidnapped by me once.
“C’mon, cheer up. We worked together during the Behemoth incident, didn’t we?”
Mikuron turns her head away.
Now that I think about it, how old are the phantoms in human years?
Mashiro and Mikuron act like kids, and even Hailo, who seems mature, acts like a kid in front of his summoner. “Huh? This must be it.”
Mikron can follow the scent, though not as well as Mashiro.
She slows down and eventually stops in midair. “Kouna, you’re here.”
A boy stood on a thick tree branch.
His long bangs covered his eyes. He was a collaborator with the “transfer ability,” Dharma Wheel.
“Yeah, Dharma Wheel. You came even though we agreed to meet every three days.”
”…I just stopped by to check things out.”
“Heh, I’m glad it wasn’t a wasted trip.”
”…I seem to be disliked by that black dragon. Let’s get this over with quickly.”
“Alright, then hand over what I need.”
Mikron descends to just above the ground, and I stand on the ground.
Dharma Wheel also transfers to stand in front of me.
“Transfer ability is really convenient, but it looks like it could make you gain weight.”
「If I keep going like this, I’ll definitely get fat.」
The Dharma Wheel slightly raised the corner of his mouth, but was he smiling?
So we’re on a level where we can joke with each other, huh.
「If you get desperate, there’s a way to lose weight quickly, so just let me know.」
「I’ll try to keep that in mind and do some moderate exercise.」
While talking, I provided the supplies.
I got a bunch of materials he collected and a simple map from the Turning Wheel. “Thank you.”
“It helps me too. Having to explore without the Turning Wheel guys would make it a lot harder.”
“Yeah. The monsters are increasing. Especially slimes, they appear everywhere. They’d be a nuisance for those who can’t fight back.”
“I have some ideas about that… I’ll talk about my strategy with the Turning Wheel too.”
”…Aren’t you being too kind?”
“But it’d be a bad conscience to leave them behind. Besides, it’s beneficial for us too.”
「Indeed, the benefits of having him stay on the island for a long time are immeasurable. But… no, if Kouno decided this, I won’t say anything against it.」
Perhaps Chuanfa Lun thought it wasn’t necessary to go out of his way to save other boys.
After all, if the ‘Return Rights’ were duplicated, they could be exchanged for other privileges at the time of return.
That’s true, but there’s no guarantee that other boys won’t gain ‘Ability Awakening’ and become a threat in the future.
Considering the safety of our comrades, I still think this is the best option. Lumina Teacher would probably feel relieved too.
「Chuanfa Lun will stay, right?」 「Of course.」
He’s in a secret relationship with the history teacher, and he hopes that his lover will come to the desert island just like Lumina Teacher did.
That way, by surviving on the desert island, his lover’s lifespan will also be extended.
「Having Chuanfa Lun around is also a great help for us.」
「I’ll cooperate with you in any way you need.」
Having a Transfer Ability user on our side is quite reassuring.
「I’ll leave this with you.」
When he saw what I took out, his shoulder twitched. ”…A walkie-talkie?”
“That’s right. There’s a way to get one, but it’s a bit complicated.”
“Is it some kind of perk? Can I have it?”
“Yeah. Wouldn’t it be better if we could contact each other on the day of our meeting and on other days too?”
“Got it. I’ll take good care of it.” “And one last thing.”
I handed over the steak on the tray, along with the side dishes and soup that Shi-on and Roa had prepared. ”…I’ll accept it gratefully.”
Tendo paused in surprise for a moment, but quickly took it. “Well, I’ll be going then.” “See you.”
After sending his luggage ahead using his teleportation ability, Tendo himself disappeared. It’s really convenient. “Alright, time to meet up with the others.”
I got back on Mikron and headed to my friends. “Welcome back, Sou-kun.”
When I returned to the base of the Shouka Party, Chiyu was the first to greet me. “I’m back.”
“Even if you only meet two of us, wouldn’t it be better to bring me and Chiyu along?”
“I, I think it would be better if you brought me along too, in case it’s useful for something.”
Seirina and Shinpo look at me with concern and say.
“Yeah, I will.”
I was worried about how Tenpo was uncomfortable around girls, but if it made my friends uneasy, it would be better if he came along even if it was just halfway.
“Kousuke-kun! You won’t spend time alone with me, but you’re okay with Tenpo-kun, that’s not fair!”
Momo protests, having guessed who I was with. I smile wryly.
“Kousuke-kun and Tenpo-kun alone… a boy’s friendship… how noble…”
Creepy? Why is her mood suddenly so high?
“As expected, it’s not just about gathering girls.”
“Indeed. His determination to survive is one of Kousuke’s charms.”
Ikeha and Kengi seem impressed.
I’m glad, but aren’t they being a bit dramatic? “Let’s get going.”
So, it’s time to deal with the unique individual in Arvank. This is the update for 4/30.
Next update is scheduled for 5/15 as usual.
And next week, volume 2 of the book version will be released! Please look forward to it!
