Mikoto: So, Does Love Disappear? / If You're Lost, Then Sing

"Oh? Didn't I just say so? Mikoto's and my dormitory—it's quite spacious."

Mikoto: So, Can Love Disappear?

"Mm..."

Lying in the bathtub, Arisa Meigo stared blankly at the ceiling.

So many strange things seemed to have happened today that she still had not fully processed them.

Why had such a terrifying thing appeared in Academy City?

"Was it because of me?"

She raised her head.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Someone knocked on the bathroom door.

"I'm coming in." It was Shokuhou.

"Yes." Arisa Meigo rose from the bath.

But Shokuhou told her to remain seated. She sat beside the shower herself, washed up, and then entered the bath as well.

"Come to think of it, I rarely take baths with Mikoto like this. Ever since before, her body hasn't been very convenient."

Shokuhou's hair carried a faint scent like honey. It smelled wonderful, making people want to lose themselves in it.

"It smells so nice..." Elisa murmured.

"Mikoto likes this scent too." Shokuhou smiled.

For some reason, whenever she heard Shokuhou showing off about Mikoto, Elisa felt something strange in her heart.

It was a little bitter, like an unripe green apple that had yet to redden and still carried a hint of sourness.

"Those enemies... who exactly were they?" Elisa was concerned. She vaguely sensed that these events might somehow be connected to her, yet she could not pinpoint what was wrong.

"We'll investigate it properly." Shokuhou yawned, then looked over at her.

Although the two were in the bath, Arisa Meigo still felt that the atmosphere was somewhat strange.

[Zero marks for the lighting, the water's reflection blocked everything]

[What a shame]

[Mikoto in danger]

[I'm dying, these two are about to steal the house]
