Patchouli: It's my date, and you went to look at other women! / I didn't! I haven't! Don't make things up!

"This..." Mikoto hesitated for a moment, unsure whether she should say it.

In truth, Mikoto herself hadn't known either. But Patchouli had secretly gone to Remilia's room, only to be caught red-handed by Remilia and Sakuya. Under the "interrogation" of the two, a blushing Patchouli had confessed!

And when Remilia heard that Patchy and Chu Chen were going on a date—

She instantly perked up!

Remilia: If you're talking about that, then I'm not sleepy anymore! My Patchy is finally going to rise to the top!

Remilia, who had always been hoping that her Patchy would hurry up and make a move on Chu Chen, became excited the moment she heard they were going on a date. Her face practically screamed "let's cause trouble," leaving Patchy speechless.

She had a feeling that something was going to go wrong with this date...

Mikoto had heard it from Remilia. Forget Mikoto—even Nangong Natsuki knew about it.

With that provocative expression of hers, going on and on about how her Patchy was going to rise to the top, it was impossible not to know!

Mikoto could more or less understand why Patchouli hadn't said anything. With a little troublemaker like that around, how could she not keep it secret?

Poor Patchouli... she had been utterly sabotaged by her own best friend!

"Ahem... it's nothing. Just a small matter, there's no need to know!"

After coughing lightly, Mikoto decided that no matter what, she couldn't casually tell others. Remilia was already enough of a headache, and as Patchouli's friend, Mikoto had to spare her at least a little worry.

Tōri and the others tilted their heads, their faces full of confusion.

However, they didn't press further. After all, they knew that if someone didn't want to talk about something, there was no need to
