[Shokuhou: Danger!]
[??? This works too?]
[Shokuhou is so miserable lol]
[No, bro, you guys are just taking fake medicine like that?]
[Oh my god, this fake medicine is way too ridiculous]
[Pretty fun]
[Touma is even more numb]
"Did you get lost, little nun?" Shokuhou asked.
But Index merely stared at Mikoto, not knowing how to begin.
Then Index noticed the collar around Mikoto's neck.

"Mm... mm!"
Index had still
