When we are on the way home after our exploration on the 10th floor, Jin asks me .
Jin:” Do you have any plan after this?”
In the end, the presence which I felt before truly belonged to the Rainbow Crystal Golem . After we defeated that one, we finished several more of Rainbow Crystal Golems until we decided that it was time for us to go home .
When we left the entrance of the dungeon, the road outside had been illuminated in orange color . It’s already evening now .
Naturally, I have no plan at all . After all, I have zero close friends in this town, and I also do not have any favorite diner to go .
When I ponder at my current state (no friends, no girlfriend, no life??), somehow, I become sad . Well, I’ve been spending my time for training, so it cannot help that I have no time to make friends, isn’t it……? It seems that I cannot tease Neme or Erin that they don’t have any friends anymore . For the time being, I should tell Jin that I am free .
Note: “I have no plan . So, what do you want to do?”

Jin: “That’s great . I was planning to ask you to do a practice match together since it’s been a while . ”
Note: “That would be nice . ”
I feel excited about the sudden proposal . It’s been two months since I practice against Jin . Naturally, I have been looking forward to it .
Note: “Oh yeah, Neme One-san, would you come along too?”
I ask Neme who is totteringly walking in front of me . She turns her head to the back while blinking her eyes in a daze .
Neme: “Why?”
Note: “Can I not tell you the reason? It’s a secret . ”
Neme: “I understand! You want to have a match with Neme! I’ll accept the challenge!”

Then she throws several punches to my directions .
Neme: “I’ll beat Note in one punch!”
She is tremendously excited . Of course, her guess is also tremendously off the mark . Since it will be troublesome if she misunderstands, I will only give her a hint in one word .
Note: “It’s not like that . Please wait until I can tell you the reason . ”
Neme: “By any chance………a confession……?”
Note: “………No . ”
Neme-san, please don’t make any troublesome misunderstanding further………

Thus, the three of us, me, Jin, and Neme are coming to a vacant area near the dungeon . This vacant area is the spot where I usually train with Jin . Our standing position is also the same as usual . We are facing each other at a distance of 10 steps from each other . The only difference is the existence of Neme . While standing in between us, she is still confused about the whole situation .
Neme: “Why did you call Neme?”
Note: “I ask you to come in case if someone between us gets hurt . ”
Neme: “It’s not a confession!?"
Note: “I told you that’s not it………”
She still misunderstands…………Her shoulder drops down, and she feels dejected . Then she watches us by the sideline . Meanwhile, Jin raises a voice to ask a question .
Jin: “That’s mean, one of us will get an injury, isn’t it?”
Note: “Yeah . ”
Jin: “That’s something to look forward for . To fight against Note . “
His eyes are glittering in excitement . For some reason, I feel that what he imagines is different from what I had envisioned . However, he seems so happy, so probably its better to keep his misunderstanding . Hence, I nod my head without denying it .
Note: “Neme One-san, if you standing over there, you will get in the way . Please find a refuge in a place that is safe from our fight . “
Neme: “Okay . ”
With a steady pace, Neme rushes to a nearby vacant space . As I see her retreating figure, I pull a dagger out of my waist . Jin also bends his body and makes a steady posture . Although he does not take out any weapon, he is completely ready for the fight .
At the moment, if I slightly lose my attention, he will instantly close up the distance between us and finish the fight . Therefore, I cannot lose my attention from him . And I am not intending to do that either .
Then, I also bend my body forward in a stand by position, while putting all my concentration on every movement which is made by the assassin in front of me . Right now, he is not moving at all . Perhaps, he is also being cautious of me .
Actually, I am not a worthy opponent for Jin who is highly skilled as an assassin . However, because of the <
He might be thinking that I have a special plan to go against him . On the contrary, I have no trick or plan to beat Jin, so his wariness is completely groundless . This time, I will make him do the first move .
