Chapter 63
[The Day’s Judgment]
Today is the day when the postponed school tournament will finally take place .
However, I don’t want to go to school just to watch the school tournament .
I want to watch only Roll’s battle, but she wasn’t fighting seriously, so I just watched that and return .
Therefore, I’ve decided to skip as planned .
Even if I say skipping, as someone without ability, being absent from this tournament wouldn’t affect my grades, so it’s really a holiday for me .
I slept at my home after a long while .
However, I don’t have enough sleep .
I had a lot to think about and couldn’t fall asleep . The same as the day before yesterday .
Perhaps, now I’m used to sleep at the sofa in Roll’s room rather than in my own room .
I lay on my bed and stared at the ceiling .
Unlike before, I rarely stay in this room these days .
Since my parents didn’t spend much time at home, I started not to come back, so this house felt desolate .
Since my parents aren’t saying anything, my degradation just keeps continues on .
It is becoming commonplace for me to go late at night, going out for a few days without contacting them, and even not returning on weekends lately .
I haven’t had meal together with my family for a long time .
2 days since that, I was spending my time at home .
I thought a lot .
At that meeting, the direction of the operation has been decided, but the details were not discussed yet .
It seems that Boss will hold another executive meeting after arranging some things .
What I know is that Tsurugi will be used .
And that I will participate in the operation .
I wonder how Tsurugi will be used . And how can I be useful in the operation .
They wouldn’t just touch Tsurugi and kill only his father .
That is to say, Tsurugi will be used and killed in this operation .
“…”
And I also take part in that operation .
I’m confused .
I’m confused that I can’t swallow the situation, but at the same time I’m also calm .
Tsurugi will die .
I hate it . Not particularly .
I’m not sure .
How do I think about it? How do I want to think about? How should I think about?
There are 2 way of thinking inside me .
It is the way of thinking as Kamiya Kazato and the way of thinking as Shion .
For some reason, the way of thinking as Shion is a bit more dominant in me…
Is it because Hakunetsu-san and Kuroinu-san died?
No .
My priority is changing .
The quality of life as Kamiya Kazato is inferior to that of life as Anonymous .
Therefore, somewhere in my heart, I want to part from this annoying daily life .
No . That should not be .
Family is important .
A family who seems to have abandoned you who don’t have ability?
No .
It’s fun to be with Tsurugi and co .
Fun? What is .
I wonder what is fun about it . I wonder what was fun about it .
I was just “in” that group .
Isn’t it fine for Tsurugi to die?
It’s not like that . He’s my best friend . If he dies, both Rin and Ohashi will be sad .
Then the talk shouldn’t be limited to Tsurugi, right .
Then, Rin and Ohashi can die as well .
“…”
What am I thinking about…!
I raised my body and looked at the clock .
The time is 10:00 am .
My head hurts .
I can’t ask Boss to not kill Tsurugi .
It’s not just my own problem .
Boss took my affairs into consideration as much as possible .
That’s why here…
…I think it’s okay .
Meaningless . Nothing would change even if I think about it .
There is nothing I can change .
I’ll just have to follow the instructions .
I’m not fighting Tsurugi, I’m not fighting Midou Ryuusui .
I put my body in the bed again .
I slept all day that day .
Next morning, I wake up in my room .
Yesterday’s school tournament continues today .
When I opened my phone, there was one new email .
It was from Rin .
[Won’t you come and see the school tournament?]
[I’m not going . ]
I sent the email that I wrote, put my phone at the bedside and stood up .
After changing clothes, I go downstairs to wash my face and brush my teeth .
Then I left home .
My destination is the hideout .
Today, I will take care of Renga .
Roll isn’t around, so I’m thinking of inviting Tameiki-san .
Tameiki-san has no plans .

Because right now, half of the functions of Anonymous headquarters have suspended .
Because of Midou Ryuusui’s influence, our activities became temporarily restricted .
The current situation is we can’t move thoughtlessly because we don’t know which of our sponsors has been seized .
I tried sending an email to Tameiki-san on the organization device .
[Where are you now?]
I put the phone in my pocket .
Then, the phone vibrated after a few seconds . It’s a call .
When I took out the phone again, it was a call from Tameiki-san as I expected .
“Yes . ”
“What’s the matter?”
Tameiki-san’s voice came from the other side of the phone .
“Can you accompany me to the Tsuhara branch? I want to go to take care of Renga . ”
“I can’t . ”
“Eh? Why?”
“There’s an order to standby . With the situation as it is . Shion, you should also stay and wait . ”
“I see . ”
I can’t go even for something other than mission huh . Tsuhara branch is at the exact opposite if Saint Celia, so I feel it’s safe, but it seems better to do as she says .
Then, let’s not go to the hideout .
“I understand . Thank you . ”
“Perhaps another conference will be held later today . Will you come to the hideout?”
“Hmm . I was thinking of going, but I changed my mind . ”
So there’s a meeting again today huh . Then I should wait at the hideout…wait, there’s nothing I can do there anyway .
“…then, do you want to have a meal together?”
I look at the time . It’s still 8 am .
“For breakfast?”
“No, for lunch . I already had breakfast . ”
I have nothing to do and I want to talk to Tameiki-san .
I haven’t talk much with Tameiki-san recently after all .
There are many reasons to go . Or rather I want to go .
“Okay . Let’s go . ”
“Then come to my room . ”
“Eh? Now?”
There’s still time until noon . Does she need me for something?
“Yes . ”
Speaking of which, I have never been in Tameiki-san’s room . I know the location though .
I have no reason to decline .
“Then, can I go there now?”
“Yeah . ”
I arrived in Tameiki-san’s room .
When I knocked on the room, I was silently invited inside .

Tameiki-san is in a suit as usual even though she is in her room .
I enter the room .
In the large room, the first impression that came to mind was “Arms Storage” .
“…”
All sorts of swords are leaning against the wall of the room, and various kinds of knives and whatnot are decorating the wall .
There are chains and ropes piled up at corner of the room, and there are several suits scattered on the ground .
Other than that, there were many things that make me want to ask “Why is there such a thing here?”
However, the room smells good . At first I thought the room would smell of gunpowder, but it actually gave off woman’s scent .
Tameiki-san sat deep on a plain sofa .
By seeing a blanket on the sofa and the fact that there is no bed in the room, I can tell that she’s always sleeping there .
“…I don’t usually come back to this room . ”
It must be her excuse for this mess huh .
Even so, to think that she just leave these suits scattered on the floor .
Maybe there are some underwears too…
“Are you not tidying up?”
I looked at the scattered suits and said so .
“I’ll throw them away all at once . I’ll get new ones anyway . ”
That’s such a waste…
It’s allowed because she is Tameiki-san . In the first place, if she send the suits to hideout’s cleaning service, they will clean it for free though .
“…”
“Well, sit down . ”
Tameiki-san told me, then I sat next to her . It’s a very elastic sofa .
Tameiki-san lay down on the sofa and put her feet on my knee .
“So, what do you want?”
“Eh?”
Since I was called to her room, I thought Tameiki-san needs me for something .
“What? You asked me to go along with you to Tsuhara because you need me for something, aren’t you?”
“Roll isn’t around today, so I’m thinking of going together with you . ”
“Is that so?”
Tameiki-san said with a slight drop in the tone of her voice .
“Moreover, I haven’t talk with Tameiki-san at all lately . ”
“…I was busy after all . ”
Tameiki-san is kind of serious .
No, I wonder if “serious” is the right way to say it .
It’s just, despite such a personality, unlike Byakurei-san or Desuko-san, she is doing a great amount of work .
When we first met, she was on vacation and I thought she was the type of person who couldn’t be tied up, but that seems not to be the case .
Of course, I don’t think she is a restrained person though .
However, she is true to the command of Boss .
“Well but, I have something to talk about with you . ”
“Really? What is it?”

Tameiki-san rearranges her feet that was on top of mine .
“It’s almost winter vacation, so can you train me again? After the matter of Midou Ryuusui was over . ”
My school’s winter vacation is long .
Since the school tournament takes up the time of winter vacation, it seems that the amount of processing is getting longer .
“…I think you are already at the stage where you can become stronger alone . I can help as much as you want if we have similar ability, but our abilities are different . ”
I have a way of growing myself .
Especially since I’m the only one who has the ability, Sound Control (Dominant), so there is no need for Tameiki-san to help me at the application stage .
I know that .
“But, it’s not enough… I want to be stronger .
Somehow, I don’t feel like I’m getting stronger at all… I’m doing training every day, and I’ve sparred against various people . I’m satisfied with that .
However, my ability is not catching up . And the firepower if Soundshoot keep falling behind…”
Battle strength is dependent on ability .
“That’s just because your control of ability is still unstable . Don’t rush .
You still have room to grow . Rather, you are growing at a great speed . There is no need to rush . ”
“Even so, it’s still slow!”
Tameiki-san put her hands behind her head and slowly closed her eyes .
Then she sigh deeply .
I have no choice but to get stronger to survive .
I want to live . If I don’t get stronger, I can’t survive .
To protect myself, I have to become stronger…
The others must have misunderstood .
Because Hakunetsu-san and Kuroinu-san died, I’m trying to get stronger .
Certainly it was the trigger .
However, the reason is “sense of danger” . It’s neither about vengeance nor is it about not letting someone else die again .
I don’t want to be killed like those two, so I want to become strong .
Perhaps it’s embarrassing to think this way .
Perhaps it’s rude to the two who died to protect me .
But, that’s the conclusion that I reached .
“…I’ll think about it . After erasing Midou Ryuusui . ”
“Really…!”
“Don’t expect anything . I’ll just think about it . ”
Tameiki-san said .
Tameiki-san, is it because you can’t afford it now?
No, that’s not limited to Tameiki-san .
Ah, I feel like doing some mischief .
“You!”
I tickled the sole of Tameiki-san’s feet with all my might .
“Uh…huu…!”
I was kicked off the sofa with those feet .
Then, I was mounted as it is, but I didn’t miss Tameiki-san’s strange voice .
“Tameiki-san is pretty ticklish, right?”
After that, I was tickled to death .
