ink that’s a good thing.
Besides, I was “one of those” for you.

 

Shiori bent her knees and put her forehead on the floor, tears streaming down her eyes.

 

– Minagami-san!?

 

– I’m so sorry, Nagami-kun.
I failed you.
I’m the worst.

 

– I-It’s fine… Raise your head, please.

 

– I can’t.
No apology would be enough for my behavior.
I could’ve talked Akito out of it, I could’ve gotten the teachers involved, but I was always too scared of what the others would think of me.

– Minagami-san…

 

At the very least, her reasoning is understandable.
She wouldn’t have been able to do anything just by herself.

 

It’s not like she was laughing and pointing fingers at me while Shunichi bullied me.

 

– I feel so disgusted by myself.
Even in another world, I’m only capable of thinking about apologizing and running away.
No wonder no one likes me.

 

– That’s enough.

 

This isn’t like her.
In fact, it’s the complete opposite of classroom Shiori.

 

She could be telling the truth, or she could be acting.

 

– Mike, please, could you leave us alone for just a few minutes?

 

– No.
I’ll stay by your side.

 

Mike went from being wary behind me to transforming into a wolf and being ready to attack.

 

Does she sense that much danger from Shiori? Is it because she smells like Akito and Shunichi?

– Nagami-kun, how much does she know about us?

 

– I’ve told her a little bit.
The less she knows, the better.

 

– I see.
I will excuse myself for now, then.
Have this.
Call me if you ever need help.

 

Shiori handed me a letter with an address.

 

Sending a familiar to this address would instantly signal my need for help.

 

– Takayaa~ Are you done yet? We gotta go~ (Meirir)

 

– Yeah, I’m going.
Minagami-san, we’ll finish this talk another time.

 

– Yes.
Just the two of us.
I look forward to it.

 

She seems friendly for now…

 

But can I really trust her? Especially considering Mike’s reaction?
