"I'm going out with Yui, Yanami, you..."
Asakura, who originally just wanted the other party to stay on standby in the activity room, looked at the snack wrappers that had accumulated on the table at some point. After three seconds of silence, he decisively and carefully locked the girl's snack plate into the safe.
"Wait... I haven't finished eating!"
Yanami, with snack crumbs still on her lips, protested indignantly.
"Today's portion has already exceeded... Rather, in terms of the amount I promised in the past, it's already two or three times over, isn't it?"
Asakura looked at her and said.
The girl's eyes darted around, as if she had suddenly developed a strong interest in the stains on the ceiling.
Asakura then accused: "And today's sodium intake has also exceeded the limit."
The girl patted her chest, which was larger than both Yukino's and Anon's combined: "It's okay, my kidneys are very healthy!"
Asakura averted his gaze from her jiggling, jelly-like chest—it was said that a girl's chest should be somewhat firm when constrained by a bra; it seemed what he saw now was just pseudoscience—he said, "That's no reason to eat so many snacks. Don't you want to eat dinner?"
"We're having hamburg steak at home today, I'm super excited!"
The girl said happily.
Asakura: "..."
Yanami: "..."
"No, you're looking forward to dinner, but you're still eating so many snacks?"
"Asakura-kun, you really don't understand..." The girl wagged her finger, making a 'tsk tsk tsk' sound, and said proudly: "For girls, snacks are stored in another stomach."
Asakura cast his gaze towards the other girl present.
"Don't look at me like that, my body structure is no different from a normal person's."
Yuigahama Yui quickly clarified.
"Huh, was it my imagination that Yui subtly implied my body structure isn't normal?"
Yanami was stunned for a moment.
"No, no."
Asakura waved his hand, speaking for Yuigahama Yui.
"Is that so..."
The blue-haired foodie girl seemed a bit relieved.
"Not very subtle."
Asakura added.
"Eh eh eh?!"
Yanami was greatly distraught.
"Takkun is just joking, Anna, don't mind him."
Yuigahama Yui said, comforting her with a wry smile.
"Really?"
Yanami Anna looked at Yuigahama Yui expectantly.
"Fragrant and soft Anna is very much a girl!"
Yuigahama Yui guaranteed.
"Is that so..."
The blue-haired foodie girl seemed a bit relieved.
"The soft part is your tummy."
Asakura added.
"Waaah—!"
Yanami Anna cried and ran away.
"Takkun."
Yuigahama Yui looked at Asakura helplessly: "Don't always tease Anna, she's also a girl, and she cares about those things."
"It's okay, I'll bring her some Yorkshire pudding tomorrow, and she'll forget everything."
Asakura said indifferently.
Yuigahama Yui looked at Asakura speechlessly.
What made her even more speechless was that even she herself felt that what Asakura said actually made a lot of sense...
After a moment of silence, the mochi-headed girl seemed to remember something and asked: "So, what do you want me to do, Takkun?"
Her expression looked a bit expectant, her smile bright: "If it's a date or something, I hope Takkun can tell me a day in advance, since I didn't really put on makeup today, and wearing a uniform doesn't feel that pretty..."
"Don't worry, it's not a date."
Asakura said, waving his hand nonchalantly.
The mochi-headed girl's soaring spirits completely deflated.
That being said, she didn't show it too obviously, merely continuing to ask: "Then what are we doing?"
"Let's go to the Clubroom first."
Asakura said as he led Yuigahama Yui out of the activity room, locking the door behind them.
By the way, Asakura and Yukinoshita Yukino each kept a key to the activity room. Generally, other activity rooms only had one key kept by a student, with a spare key in the teacher's office. However, because the situation with this activity room was special, being shared by the Service Club and the Magic Club, both keys were distributed.
If Asakura and Yukinoshita Yukino both lost their keys at the same time, they would probably have to break the door down.
Upon arriving at the Clubroom, Yuigahama Yui found that someone was already inside.
Well, this wasn't too strange; often, when she came to the Clubroom, Asagumo Chihaya was already there.
However, today Asagumo Chihaya had left with Yukinoshita Yukino, so logically, there shouldn't have been anyone else in the Clubroom.
But upon seeing the other person's pink long hair, Yuigahama Yui showed a surprised expression: "Eh, aren't you—"
She remembered the person; it was that first-year who came to find Asakura during break today...
"Hello, I'm a new member of the Magic Association! My name is Chihaya Anon. Hee hee!"
The pink-haired girl happily ran over and greeted her.
However, in Asakura's opinion, the expression on Anon's face felt less like happiness and more like 'relief.' She was probably just tired of Hoshino Ai nagging her from the poster while she was in the Clubroom, which is why her expression was so happy when she saw them.
Asakura hadn't seen much of Hoshino Ai's pre-death video footage, but from what he knew of her after her death, she was actually quite talkative. After becoming a 'true 2D character' who could only move within posters and photos, her incessant chatter seemed to have intensified.
However, on a daily basis, he himself was quite capable of keeping her in check, so he hadn't felt any problems.
"H-hello..."
Yuigahama Yui, who was usually quite cheerful and outgoing, was a bit stunned by the enthusiasm of Chihaya Anon, who was even more cheerful and outgoing than her, and could barely speak coherently: "My name is Yuigahama Yui."
"You're Yuigahama-senpai, right? I understand!"
Chihaya Anon's knowing expression made Asakura want to ask her, "What do you understand?"
However, that impulse was quickly suppressed.
"Then, let's make a long story short."
Asakura then got down to business with Yuigahama Yui: "Yesterday, Chihaya—not Anon-chan, but Asagumo—and I resolved a supernatural incident, and what we got from that incident…"
Chihaya Anon, with great perceptiveness, took off the necklace from her neck and specifically showed Yuigahama Yui the pendant on it.
"It's this."
Asakura then continued: "Although it's only an unfinished product, it contains the power of the Curse Mirror. Yui, your Curse is relatively gentle and balanced, and your control over Napoleon has also been trained very well, so you can try to see if you can wield this Curse."
