It happened three days ago. I led Kyouka, who had arrived without any prior notice and introduced the "Evil Spirit" Hundun, to my living room while bewildered. We sat across a table and faced each other. Kyouka was silent as she watched steam rising from her teacup. (This kind of reminds me of that time… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 5

Ryuuga and Kurogame turned pale upon Kyouka's entry. The nightly riverbank had fallen silent. A soft wind blew across. Honestly speaking...even I wouldn't have thought that the four of us would meet again like this after our trip at Chigayama. Not until Kyouka visited my home three days ago. "Kyouka, what are you saying...? I… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 4

On the desolate riverbed after the sun had set, I stood still, waiting for Ryuuga to arrive. It was 7:40. There was still a bit until the designated time, but just to make sure, I came early to be on standby. After all, the final boss should be the one waiting in a dignified manner.… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 3

Ichirou is the vessel of the "Evil Spirit" Taotie. Not able to accept such a nightmarish fact, I...Hinomori Ryuuga, finally saw the day of our decisive battle. (Not just Kyouka, but even Ichirou has become a vessel...) The boy named Kobayashi Ichirou must be a supernatural ability user like us──seeing how he was able to… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 2

The Clash, Ryuuga vs Ichirou I had just declared war on Ryuuga and the others. Taotie's group returned home without striking any meaningful conversation along the way. It was already seven o'clock pm. Mion, who quickly went towards the entrance, quickly prepared slippers for everybody. Though she's supposedly an apostle, she would make a pretty… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 1

The state of the situation shifted once more as Ryuuga entered the scene. After several twists and turns unfolding, now that the leaders of both sides have appeared, the balance had evened out again. The protagonist and final boss, each accompanied by three companions, stared each other down...creating an oppressive feeling of tension. "Oh, so… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 3 Part 6

A battle royale had started and was no longer at a point where I could intervene any longer. I wasn't able to stop the heated conflict, and it was instead heightening. (W, what should I do...?) ──Mion and Aogasaki launched a series of offensive and defensive moves without even taking their eyes off of each… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 3 Part 5

The next day had arrived. It was probably about five o'clock in the evening. While waiting for Mion and Jyuri to return from shopping, I was playing video games with Kiki in the living room. It was a fighting game released years ago that I was fairly confident in. Though I intended to go easy… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 3 Part 4

While continuing to live as I did, I had gotten used to living together with the three princesses. I suppose that this is the result of my inherent adaptability. Sometimes we eat out, go for karaoke or bowling, or play a game of cards in the living room...living quite leisurely considering that I'm with a… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 3 Part 3

My impatience was rising over how part two didn't seem to be starting any time soon. During these busy days, I had received an unexpected blessing. Ryuuga had sent me a message. Sensing that I was shouldering a mountain of distress, she said 'If you're not in the mood, then I won't force you to… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 3 Part 2
