After the meeting with her father ended, Yuzuki returned to her room, took off her clothes, and stood in front of the mirror. [T/N: I’ll be using “her” from now on.]
She stared at her body, recalling Teruyoshi’s words.
As she muttered this, she stared at the reflection of a beautiful girl in the mirror.
Yuzuki examined her body and mocked herself.
“To my father, my existence is worth nothing more than that…”
With those words, Yuzuki lowered her head.
After defeating the woman who was the embodiment of a blizzard and ensuring my safety, I took a break to drink some Complete Healing Herb Juice. Suddenly, I noticed a pale blue light appearing.
Thinking that something else was about to happen, I immediately drew my Omni-Sword.
However, the light flew toward me at a tremendous speed.
I was too slow to react to the sudden attack and couldn’t dodge the light.
Then, it disappeared into my body.
I hurriedly checked my body, but there were no signs of anything unusual.
Just as I started to wonder what had happened, Luna rushed out of the mountain hut.
“Yuuya! Are you okay?”
“Ah, yeah, I’m fine. But more importantly, is everyone else okay?”
“Yeah, it suddenly got warm after the cold disappeared, so everyone’s fine.”
“I see. That’s good.”
Luna asked me with a serious expression and a slightly tired smile.
“…What on earth happened? And how did such a fierce blizzard disappear in an instant and suddenly become so clear?”
“Actually, I don’t know what happened either.”
Just as I was about to explain the situation to Luna, I suddenly heard the sound of a helicopter approaching.
When I looked in that direction, I saw a helicopter flying straight toward us.
“Is that… a rescue helicopter?”
The innkeeper must have called for help.
In any case, now that help has arrived, we can relax.
Just as I was thinking that, the helicopter landed on the mountaintop, and people in suits got out.
“Huh?” Fınd the newest release on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾※𝙣𝙚𝙩
“…This doesn’t look like a rescue team.”
As Luna said, they weren’t dressed like they were here for a rescue.
Besides, I could sense a strange power emanating from each of them.
Luna and I were on guard, wondering who they were, when a woman stepped forward from the group.
When she saw me, her eyes lit up for some reason.
“…F-finally, we meet…”
I couldn’t hear her clearly, so I asked her to repeat herself. She looked startled and cleared her throat.
“Um, I’m sorry. You’re… Yuuya Tenjou, right?”
“Huh? Y-yes, that’s me. But how do you know my name?”
I was confused as to how she knew my name when she took a business card from her breast pocket.
“I’m Oki Hinako, director of the Special Mutation Countermeasures Bureau.”
“The Special Mutation Countermeasures Bureau?”
Oki-san continued, confused by my unfamiliarity with the organization’s name.
“Yes, it’s a government-affiliated organization that deals with mutations that can be described as supernatural phenomena. Like the one Yuuya-kun just encountered in a place unknown to the public.”
Completely taken aback by the unexpected appearance of these individuals, Luna whispered to Yuuya.
“Yuuya, who are these people?”
“W-well, I’m not entirely sure, but it seems like they’re a government organization tasked with dealing with strange situations like the one we just encountered.”
“What? A government agency?”
Luna didn’t expect the government to be involved either, and her eyes widened.
Then, Oki-san looked at Luna and spoke.
“You are the person Yuuya-kun brought here… You’re from another world, right?”
Unbelievably, Oki-san already knew that Luna was from another world.
With one unexpected thing after another happening, Luna was at a loss for words. Oki-san smiled gently.
“Don’t worry. I’m not going to do anything to you. Well, I do plan to do something to Yuuya-kun someday, but…”
W-was that really true? I sense something ominous.
“But why are you here?”
“Well… Let’s get away from here first to explain properly. You’re okay for now, but we can’t leave you in this cold environment for long.”
