"We're finally back."
Asuna stretched. Even though what had happened just now had all been an illusion, it still felt as if she had fought a major battle.
That really wasn't like a young lady at all, was it?
"With that, it seems my investigation is over too."
She had come here for Yui in the first place. Now that she had confirmed that her own appearance had caused a butterfly effect, she could make preparations for what came next.
In any case, Yui didn't exactly dislike her, so she probably wouldn't oppose her thoughts.
From Yui's perspective, perhaps Feng Chen's idea was exactly what she wanted.
"Huh? It's over?"
Asuna, who had originally planned to hide out at Feng Chen's place for a few more days, immediately put on a pitiful expression.
More importantly, the matter concerning Jizou Mitama had been completely brushed aside by Feng Chen.
She really wanted to bring a powerful teammate like Asuna into the hidden Labyrinth Area, but it was better not to drag her into this any further.
"Yeah. The rest is a private matter between Bella and me. Could it be that the Vice Guild Leader wants to take part in our private affairs?"
It was definitely going to be another sickeningly sweet private affair, so Asuna gave up on eating lemons and being a third wheel.
Although...
I'm going to leave him again...
Feng Chen's biological clock was completely opposite to those of other players. He only entered the Labyrinth Area at night, when everyone else was resting.
In his words, that was because it was less likely to attract attention... probably?
"Then I'll be going." Asuna took a few steps before turning back to look at Feng Chen. "I'm really leaving, you know?"
