Good... So Cute...! (Requesting Moon Tickets)
At the same time, in the hall of the dormitory, a group of students from Hagun Academy had already begun gathering.
"----"
One by one, the student knights stood there quietly without saying a word. Only their eyes burned with fighting spirit and determination they had never possessed before.
Not even Usamaru Koko and Suiro Rai were exceptions.
Everyone exuded an air of having smashed through a brick wall and never turning back, quietly waiting there.
Of everyone present, only two people had not blended into this atmosphere, and neither had any fighting spirit or determination in their eyes.
One was Arisugawa Nagi.
The other was Mibarai Izuru.
Mibarai Izuru looked at everyone like this, narrowing his eyes as if he found them dazzling.
