Vigne: Can you go shopping with me to buy a gift?

"Too bad."

After seeing Ren pass the pineapple bread in his hand to Satania, Raphiel stopped.

She originally wanted to take this opportunity to tease Satania.

Unexpectedly, Ren had just been by her side to help her prove it, giving Satania pineapple bread, causing her plan to fail.

However, this did not affect her good mood.

That is fun.

Walking towards Ren, Raphiel almost laughed out loud when she saw Satania hastily hide the pineapple bread behind her.

"Kamikawa-san, this pineapple bread is for you."

Having said that, she handed over the pineapple bread.

"?"

Ren didn't accept it rashly.

Satania had just been teased sadly by Raphiel, which made him a little wary of her.

He didn't want to be like that.

"Accept it calmly, this is a gift for you," Raphiel explained in a gentle tone, and at the same time moved a little closer to him.

"Gift?"

Ren didn't think he had anything worthy of being valued by others.

"Kamikawa-san is brave enough to prove it to me now," Raphiel said with a smile, "Good children who have the courage to tell the truth deserve to be rewarded."

"…"

"I was just kidding, I just wanted to say thank you to Kamikawa-san," Raphiel continued, "Please accept it."

"Okay."

Since it was a thank you, Ren could accept it.

After all, he had received many thanks, and this one was not to be missed.

"Then I will go back. Goodbye."

After successfully delivering the pineapple bread, Raphiel said goodbye.

"Goodbye, Raphiel-san."

Even though Raphiel's performance just now directly ruined her impression of her, Vigne still answered enthusiastically.

"Goodbye."

Gabriel and Ren said in unison.

"The bad guy is finally gone."

When Raphiel actually left the classroom, Satania breathed a sigh of relief.

"I said, is it almost time for you to leave?" Gabriel yawned and reminded her at the right time, "This is not your classroom."

"...Forgotten!"

After being reminded, Satania realized the problem.

Then, holding her schoolbag in one hand and pineapple bread in the other, she ran out of class B.

"Kamikawa, you should try to have as little contact with them as possible from now on. It would be bad if things got weird."

Looking at Satania's hurried back, Gabriel spoke solemnly to Ren.

"Understood."

······

During the day, on the stairs.

"Kamikawa-san, you asked Gab what he wanted so quickly?" Vigne confirmed in a somewhat disbelieving manner.

What she asked Ren to do at noon yesterday was completed today.

Is the efficiency too fast?

"Yes."

Ren answered firmly.

"Not found yet?" Vigne didn't feel at ease.

"Already."

This was an exchange of information between him and Gabriel, how could it be known?

"It was great."

Vigne asked expectantly: "Then please tell me, Kamikawa-san, what does Gab want?"

As long as she knows this, she should be able to give a gift that will make Gabriel happy.

"A shining gold sword, a game console, and a doll," Ren answered honestly.

"???"

Vigne wondered if she had heard wrong.

Game consoles and dolls are understandable, after all, they are ordinary gifts.

But what happened to that shining golden sword?

It doesn't match Gabriel's angel painting style at all!

"Kamikawa-san, are you sure Gab didn't realize that you asked her about the gift?" Vigne asked tentatively after observing him carefully.

She strongly suspected that Gabriel had guessed that Ren wanted to give her a gift, so she said she wanted a big sword as a joke on him.

After all, the relationship between the two of them was so good, it was normal to make a joke.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain it.

"No."

Ren's attitude was very firm.

"…"

Vigne was silent.

Obviously, she didn't realize that Gabriel was joking with Ren, but really thought that Gabriel wanted a big sword.

Just thinking about the scene where Ren bought a big sword as a birthday gift for Gabriel made her feel bad.

It was a birthday party!

No, think of something better, maybe Ren doesn't want to give her a big sword.

Anyway, confirm first.

"Kamikawa-san, have you decided what gift to give Gab?"

"Think about it."

"Can you tell me?" Vigne asked hopefully.

"Big sword," Ren said without hesitation.

Since a big sword was the first thing Gabriel said she wanted, that meant a big sword was what she wanted most.

Otherwise, why would she say big sword?

Therefore, as her best friend, Ren had to give her what she wanted most.

"…" Vigne smiled awkwardly, "Well… Kamikawa-san, how about you exchange gifts?"

"Why?"

Ren didn't understand why Vigne said that.

Could it be that she wanted to give Gabriel a big sword like he did?

For this, he could only give this explanation.

"This..."

Vigne was silent for a moment and didn't know what to say better.

She couldn't say that Gabriel had known his goal and deliberately said she wanted a big sword just to joke.

If Vigne did this, it was the same as telling him that Ren not only didn't know what Gabriel wanted, but also revealed that they wanted to give her a gift. If Gabriel's surprise fails, it's all his fault.

She couldn't do something like that.

She had asked Ren to ask about it from the start, so even if it failed, the reason wasn't Ren's fault, but her.

However, now was not the time to share responsibilities, she first had to get rid of Ren's idea of giving the sword to Gabriel.

After some thought, Vigne smiled and invited him: "Then, Kamikawa-san, should we go together to buy a gift for Gab this afternoon?"

As she was choosing a gift, she planned to cancel Ren's idea of buying a big sword and let him know that there was more than just a big sword that could be given to Gabriel as a gift.

"Buying gifts?"

Ren was a little moved.

He had never bought a birthday gift for anyone, so it was great that he could go with someone else to do something he didn't understand.

But does buying gifts with him count as shopping?

"Well, I don't know what doll Gabriel wants, so I want you to help me make a reference," Vigne asked.

"Can."
