Early the next morning, Fang Zheng appeared before everyone looking refreshed and full of energy. Meanwhile, Shirai Kuroko, standing beside Misaka Mikoto, kept yawning.
"Kuroko, what's wrong? Didn't you sleep last night?"
"Big Sister? No, it's nothing. I was reading a book and lost track of time..."
As she said this, Kuroko secretly shot Fang Zheng a glare before quickly looking away. To be honest, she still didn't really like Fang Zheng, but even if that was what she thought, her body certainly didn't agree!
Even when she merely sensed Fang Zheng's gaze, Kuroko could feel her body growing hot as clear, sweet fluid slowly seeped out. Her entire body had already eagerly prepared itself. And whenever Fang Zheng held her in his arms, Kuroko felt as if all her strength had vanished, leaving her desperately anticipating... Ugh, better not think about it.
After vigorously slapping her cheeks, Kuroko finally managed to pull herself together.
After Alisa's unexpected incident, everyone continued onward. Along the way, Fang Zheng had tried to find the Aragami that had driven Alisa berserk, but it had clearly fled quickly and was, at the very least, nowhere along their route. Alisa seemed relieved by this outcome. Clearly, although she had barely recovered, she wasn't confident she could face that Aragami again.
Fang Zheng could have used the Omniscient Angel to find that Aragami, but he definitely wouldn't do that. Going by the development of an anime, the protagonist suffered a setback in episode three, recovered by episode ten, then defeated the boss in episode twelve for the finale.
You got beaten down in episode three, and you were going to settle accounts with the boss in episode four?
The audience wouldn't stand for that either.
Since Alisa wasn't clamoring to fight that Aragami to the death,
