Chapter 167 Something Big was About to Move (2/2)

When I called out to them, the three of them immediately turned to me and tilted their heads.

Feeling a little embarrassed to start talking, I slowly opened up the topic.

[……I actually invited Kuro to go out…… But I was hoping to ask what place……]

[When is that!?]

[Uwooohhh!? A- Alice? Why are you here……]

[Just put it aside for now, so when is that date!?]

Right after I opened my mouth to consult Acht and the others, Alice appeared in front of me.

Moreover, Alice looks much sharper and tenser than I would normally expect.

Not only that, but it was really unusual for Alice, who should know everything, to be genuinely surprised about this.

[A- Alice…… Errr, I thought you would definitely have known about it already.]

[……Everytime Kuro-san meets Kaito-san in your room, you would always have a strong barrier around your room…… The conversations you and Kuro-san had in this room…… I wouldn’t know about it. A- Anyway, please give me the date!!!]

[O- On the 30th of the Tree month……?]

[The 30th of the Tree month…… It’s much earlier than I expected…… Kuh!? Kaito-san, please do me a favor!]

[Eh, what?]

While being pressured by Alice’s words she rapidly spoke, I tilted my head in response to her words.

I don’t know…… Why is Alice that flustered?

[On the 29th day of the Tree month, the day before you go out with Kuro-san, please come to my shop. Give me a day’s time!]

[Eh? Unnn?]

[Please! This is important!!!]

[I- I understand……]

I didn’t know what Alice meant by her words, but she didn’t feel like she was joking around, and she really had something important to say.

Hearing my words, Alice lets out a sigh of relief, then flipping her chained robe, she shouts.

[Emergency call! All Count-levels, assemble!]

[ [ [ [ Wha!? ] ] ] ]

The moment Alice announced it, ten black-robed beings appeared in my room.

If it’s just as Alice said earlier…… These ten beings are all Count-level high-ranking Demons…… All of whom are beings that you would definitely be counted among the top, even within the Demon Realm.

In front of the four of us who are surprised by their sudden appearance, Alice opens her mouth in a serious tone.

[I will now leave for an urgent business. Until I return, please guard Kaito-san…… If you get even one graze on Kaito-san, you can expect that all of your heads will fall off. And also, it goes without saying, but respond to Kaito-san’s orders as if his orders receive priority over everything else……]

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ Yes! ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

With a single, uniformed movement, the ten high-ranking demons get down on one knee and afterwards, immediately disappear.

If Alice’s words are correct…… then all of them are my hidden guards. What the heck is that, it’s making me uncomfortable…… Where did my privacy go?

[……Kaito-san, I’m sorry. I’ll be gone for a few days…… In the meantime, if you have any orders, one of my subordinates will deal with it, so feel free to let them know what you need.]

[Eh? Y- Yeah……]

[Now then, by your leave.]

Telling that to the still confused me, Alice disappears too.

I wonder what this is, this feeling…… It was as if there was an abnormal situation, but why is this happening?

No, I mean, all I said was that I will be going out with Kuro, right? She was so tense that it feels like a great war is about to start……

Dear Mom, Dad——- I was about to consult Acht and the others about my date with Kuro when Alice suddenly appeared. She looked different than usual, acting really serious…… It was as if—— something big was about to move.

Serious-senpai: “Riding the night bus, I have come! It’s finally my turn!!!]

That’s right, the Kuromueina Arc finally begins…… It’s Serious-senpai’s final battle!

Serious-senpai: “……Final?”
