"Can't you add me too?"
Seeing the hint of pleading in Nana's eyes, Su Sulo let out a laugh, while Blaze happily curled her lips.
"Sure!"
"Sure my ass! Blaze, look at her now and say that again!"
The big cat who used to grab Little Fox and bully her had now apparently been completely suppressed by Little Fox's job title. Nana smiled and had Kate help put the cup into her uniform pocket.
As she watched her friends, unchanged from three years ago, fooling around, a sharp presence suddenly appeared behind her, making the fur on her tail stand on end. Everyone present turned around together.
Nana heard slightly heavy footsteps.
"Oh, she's here."
Blaze smiled as she took control of the wheelchair from Folinic and turned Nana toward the other end of the hallway.
Looking at the little cat, who in Nana's memories had mostly been crying or smiling brightly, arrive with an unprecedentedly resolute gaze and four enormous floating shields, even Nana could not help but sigh.
The little Feline who had once always cried in someone's arms could now carry equipment terrifying enough to make anyone's legs go weak.
But the moment that thought appeared, the little cat who had looked cool for three seconds immediately reverted to the bright-smiling child she was upon seeing Nana.
White Cat came rushing over like an unleashed husky, clutching a Terminal in one hand and carrying a half-person-sized Arts unit on her back.
That alone would have been fine, but the four enormous floating shields behind her made the sight extremely frightening.
Even Blaze, who had been promoted to Elite Operator, panicked and hurriedly waved her hands. In the end, it was only Folinic, her nominal "senior," shouting a warning that made the little cat stop with drooping ears.
