Cheering up Nyaika

Upon arriving at the sports complex, Aika met up with us near the entrance.

The place was already teeming with people walking to and from different venues. The cheers and the echoes coming from the microphone-enhanced announcements made the atmosphere a little frantic.

Futaba and Eimi, who weren’t fond of too much noise, both frowned at how grating it was to their ears.

Akane came to the rescue of her friend while I paid special attention to my girl.

Thankfully, Hiyori and Ririka were already immune to it. They’re both veterans when it comes to enduring the noises from crowded and chaotic places, after all. The hustle and bustle in this crowd was no match to an idol concert or cosplay convention.

As for the others, they’re not uncomfortable with this. They kept close to us, avoiding bumping into other people.

After Aika introduced herself to the two, she then started guiding us to the venue of the boxing competition.
