Chapter 31

(Chifuyu's POV)

I admit that even in my wildest dreams, I would imagine that Ichika would be in [Zodiac Beasts]. And on top of that he was 8 years with them.

He told me everything, even his motivation, which was to be able to protect me, which I admit I was so happy when I found out that Reiraku Byakuya was still in his IS.

When he finished speaking, I stared at him. I wasn't sure if he knew, but he was doing the same expression that Madoka did when she appeared in front of me.

But I didn't care. I did not care. As long as Ichika was Ichika, he could become a god or a demon, I wouldn't care. I got up and hugged him, and realized that he was really overwhelmed with the idea of ​​me rejecting him, because he started to cry, I couldn't say anything, after all the positions were changed not long ago.

After we both calmed down, I sat down again, Ichika's friends, who even introduced themselves, despite the woman who kissed Ichika calling me sister-in-law, which made her angry when I saw her kissing Ichika back, made room so I can sit next to him and Madoka sit on the other side. It was at that time that Ichika's Sensei decided to speak.

(Dragon): "It seems that you have already accepted..."

I was still not well with him, but as Ichika really respected him I was going to give my arm to cheer.

(Madoka): "Ichika-nii, have you found out who the [Phantom Task] spies at the Academy are?"

(Chifuyu): "Spies?"

(Madoka): "Yes, I managed to get this information. Squall sent her niece to the Academy to spy there, and it looks like she managed to recruit some students."

I didn't think they would be so bold as to call students to work for them.

(Ichika): "Actually, yes. I find out all four, including who is Squall Mendel's niece."

(Chifuyu): "How?"

He took the display and connected it to a part of the table. At that time, two holograms appeared. One was from a man in a white military outfit, and the other from a woman in a red dress with brown hair.

(Chifuyu): "Who are these, Ichika?"

(Ichika): "You can introduce yourself."

(???????): "I am Colonel."

(????): "And I'm Iris."

(Colonel & Iris): "We are AIs developed by Ichika-sama."

I was not so surprised by the fact that Ichika managed to develop two AIs, after all he did a great job of Tabane at his IS.

(Chifuyu): "So it was because of them?"

(Ichika): "Yes. I programmed Colonel to be a strategist, as well as presenting weaknesses and advantages of machines and structures. As for Iris, she's kind of a navigator and supervisor. She checks all of our conditions and the surroundings. "

(Mice): "No matter how many times I listen, I am still surprised by what Ichika was able to do."

(Ichika): "Let's leave that for later. Iris, you can say what you said to me before we left the room."

She told how Daryl Casey, and three other students were blinded by the cameras and how calm they were even with the confusion at the Academy.

(Chifuyu): "So this attack was caused by [Phantom Task]..."

(Madoka): "Possibly to get data about Ichika-nii... or his IS, since it is the first fourth generation that exists..."

(Ichika): "I didn't use Ouri's full potential, but what I used should be enough for them to be very happy."

(Chifuyu): "Do you want to get rid of [Phantom Task] spies?"

(Ichika): "I was hoping to at least immobilize them."

(Madoka): Why not kill them? "

I really didn't like the idea of ​​Ichika staining his hands with blood, but I wasn't going to say much.

(Ichika): "I prefer to avoid, besides, Daryl Casey is still the IS Representative Cadet of America, even though it is obviously a false name. This will cause a huge confusion."

In fact, tinkering with an IS Representative Cadet is tinkering with the country she represented, even though the Academy had a clause that made them not be linked to any country or organization while at the Academy but it was quite capable of being ignored , if we pursued it, we would have to ensure that there were no flaws. Not to mention that there was a possibility for America to support the [Phantom Task].

(Chifuyu): "I can help you with that."

(Ichika): "Thank you... but we still have to choose a good time..."

(Chifuyu): "We can try before the next tournament between classes."

(Madoka): "But what about me?"

(Dragon): "You can stay here until you can go to the Academy..."

(Chifuyu): "That will take a month or so... since Daryl Casey possibly knows you are."

I really wanted to try to make up for lost time with Madoka, but that would have to wait.

(Chifuyu): Anyway, we have to go back to the Academy. If Squall Mendel says that Madoka is gone and Ichika and I are not at the Academy, she may be suspicious and go along with the accomplices. "

(Snake): "I wanted to spend time with Ichika~."

(Ichika): "Stay for another day, Snake." - he said with an apologetic smile.

She just pouted her cheeks. Ichika and I said goodbye to them, especially Madoka, and we left. On the way and I decided to take a doubt that was in my head.

(Chifuyu): "Ichika."

(Ichika): "Yes?"

(Chifuyu): "Have you crossed the line with that woman yet?"

He was silent for a while and I realized the answer was yes, which made me even more angry.

(Chifuyu): "When?"

(Ichika): "The day before I went to the Academy. She and Taiga decided to take the lead."

My eyes widened with that, but then I remembered that the girls were saying that Ichika had two girlfriends. That made me even more jealous, more than I should have, which made me a little confused.

(Chifuyu): "Just make sure to use protection... I don't want a nephew anytime soon."

(Ichika): "Yes, ma'am."

The two of us didn't talk the rest of the way to the Academy, but despite the jealousy, I was happy, because now I knew everything about Ichika.

(Ichika's POV)

I was stupidly happy. Not only did my family get together, but Chifuyu-nee didn't care that I was at [Zodiac Beasts]. Although it looked like she didn't like Snake much. But before we arrived at the Academy, I would have to have a sense of how we were going to get Daryl Casey.

(Ichika): "Chifuyu-nee, do you want to plan how we deal with Daryl Casey?"

(Chifuyu): "Didn't the Colonel come up with any strategies?"

(Ichika): "He suggested using the training facility."

(Chifuyu): "The idea is not bad ... but I think Daryl Casey's three companions are from different rooms... trying to call everyone together without a good reason will not work..."

(Ichika): "What do we do? Do you try to jump them?"

(Chifuyu): "No... after today they will certainly be cautious... I will have to try to talk to their teachers... I just hope they don't talk much."

(Ichika): "With Madoka's testimony, don't we have a reason? Or making her appear in front of them? I mean... Daryl Casey must at least be surprised."

(Chifuyu): "The idea is good... but let's wait for now."

We arrived at the Academy, it was too late. I didn't see anyone in the halls.

(Chifuyu): "You better go. Your roommate must be worried ... even though she won't be your roommate for a long time."

(Ichika): "What do you mean?"

(Chifuyu): "Maya will tell you everything. Good night, Ichika."

(Ichika): "Good night Chifuyu-nee."

She went on her way, while I went back to my room, when I got there, I came across a very furious Houki.

(Ichika): "Should I have left a message saying 'don't wait for me for dinner?'."

She looked at me confused, but then she turned red when she realized my joke, after all that would be what a husband would leave for his wife if he were to stay late.

(Houki): "Where were you?"

(Ichika): "In a family moment with Chifuyu-nee."

Her expression immediately calmed down, possibly she thought I was with Tatenashi.

(Houki): "Did you take the katana for a workout?"

(Ichika): "No, it was more for precaution."

(Houki): "Precaution?"

(Ichika): "In a month or two you will understand."

She was not very happy with my answer, but she must have realized that she was not going to make it.

(Houki): "Just let me know next time."

(Ichika): "Okay."

I almost dropped Chifuyu-nee's comment about her possibly not being my roommate anymore, but I decided not to make her angry again. I showered and put on clean clothes, after all, my school life was still on.
