As I was looking for Elmira, I decided to try the riverbank. Suddenly, a large flame broke out ahead. A giant flaming bird, about three to four meters long, tore through the night sky while making a spiral. "C, could it be...?!" (Oh, it seems someone's been setting off fireworks out of season. What a… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 4 Part 3

Meanwhile, there was a commotion at the riverbank. Elmira McCartney and Hunshou Higaia were still in the middle of a battle. Higaia being able to keep up with her and continue fighting wasn't just a minor miscalculation on Elmira's part. She realized this night that she made a very big mistake. (Good grief, it seems… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 4 Part 2

We Still Don't Know The True Nature of the Apostle We Saw That Day Elmira McCartney made a miscalculation by heading towards the riverbank. The view was good and there were many spots where she could hide in the grass. There was even a straight path towards Ryuuga's home...but her plan backfired. "──You idiot! If… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 4 Part 1

A bit of time had passed. I kept my eyes tightly closed while putting strength into my gut, preparing myself for any changes in my body. ...There are currently two "Evil Spirits" in my body. I'm hosting two beings who would kill an ordinary person upon possessing them. No doubt, I must be the first… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 6

'Ichirou! Kyouka's...Kyouka's dying!' Ryuuga's voice was more distraught than I had ever heard as she told me of Kyouka's condition. It's clear why she's so stressed. It's obvious that she would be in a panic upon her only sister being in a critical state. However, there's one thing about what she said that's on my… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 5

I gave Ryuuga a word of caution. I then walked with her to her home, and headed off towards my house. (Good grief, Ryuga...you're heading towards a slippery slope, aren't you?) While making such a complaint in my mind, I took a deep breath. I'm okay with Aogasaki finding out about her being a woman,… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 4

"Yeah. I heard about Qiongqi's ability from Hundun." It was after school the next day. I began to speak about the "Evil Spirit" Qiongqi to Ryuuga in the classroom, but she already knew about his ability. Ryuuga would normally go home immediately, but she was leisurely packing up today. Kyouka's condition was remaining stable for… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 3

Nothing happened for two days. Qiongqi's faction hasn't made any movements, and the Kobayashi household became calm. Ryuuga was focused on taking care of her sister, and the heroines took shifts patrolling around the city. They entrusted me with Elmira's situation after school. (I was ecstatic when he called me Papa a while ago, but… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 2

Separating From Hinomori Kyouka It was the morning after Elmira and Shizuma were brought to the Kobayashi household. When I arrived at school, I immediately gathered all of the main characters at the rooftop, and reported that I have "confirmed Elmira's whereabouts". Of course, I kept the specifics hidden. "Y, you found Elmira?! Did you… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 3 Part 1

Around ten minutes had passed. Returning home, accompanied by Elmira and Shizuma, I saw that Mion and Jyuri were understandably bewildered. "E, Elmira McCartney?" "That baby is the one from the pictures Ichirou had..." Unable to grasp the situation, the two stood still at the entrance. Kiki's next words further stupefied them. "Mion, Jyuri. From… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v4 Chapter 2 Part 6
