Respect to Each Other

It had been few days since the entrance ceremony and the weekend was coming.

Since it was a weekend, Shizuno decided to take a break and went to sleep since, in the past few days, her sleep quality was a bit strange. Usually, during her sleep, she would see a glimpse of the memory from her previous lives with her loved one, but after what had happened that day, the thing that she remembered was either the glimpse of her fight against a lot of people or the dream where she was dating that playboy.

After a few days of staying together with Jeanne, Shizuno learned that Haru's girlfriend wasn't only Jeanne from Jeanne's mouth which made her dumbfounded and wondered why Jeanne told her about this matter.

When Shizuno heard that, she couldn't fall asleep and always thought a lot of things on her head in the past few days so when she didn't need to go to school because of the weekend, she decided to sleep all day long until...

*Ring!*

"...."

Shizuno heard the ringtone of her phone and it made her couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Her alluring body was completely wide open and every corner of her body could be seen at this moment since she wasn't wearing anything.

Unfortunately, no one was here to see this beautiful scene.

Shizuno took her phone and heard a chirpy and girly voice. She knew very well whose voice it was, but because of that, it didn't give her a good feeling, especially when Satsuki had called her right in the early morning.

"Hello? It's me. Would you mind going out with me?"

"Sorry, but there's someone else I like." Shizuno dropped her phone after she said those words, but the girl's from the phone couldn't help but become annoyed.

"That's not what I meant!"

---

In the end, even though Shizuno was tired, she followed Satsuki's wish to go with her to the department store.

Satsuki was staring at the cloud through the glass rooftop. "What weird weather."

But Shizuno ignored Satsuki's words and asked, "So why did you call me out to a place like this?"

"You said that I was welcome on holiday, didn't you?"

"Did I?"

"Anyway, I want to get a present for both Haru and Jeanne to congratulate them for joining the Striker!" Satsuki said with a hopeful expression since she hoped to get Shizuno's help.

"So why do I have to go along?"

Satsuki became slightly flustered and hesitant when she heard that question. "Because I don't know what kind of gift I should give them... and I don't have that much money so... I am thinking to buy it with you so it will be... cheaper?"

"See you."

Shizuno left without hesitation.

"Wait!"

Satsuki became desperate and hugged Shizuno, crying loudly while asking her.

"Good grief..."

Shizuno was helpless and in the end, she decided to go along with Satsuki's wish.

Then both of them started their date on looking for the gift for both Jeanne and Haru.

So the question was, where were Haru and Jeanne during the weekend?"

Haru and Jeanne didn't need to go to the school so both of them decided to go to the nearby church.

In truth, Jeanne wanted to visit the church every day since she had a habit of praying every day, and even if she was on the quest for the Group Chat or when she was eaten by her lover, she didn't forget to pray and told how grateful she was toward the Lord.

However, Jeanne didn't feel that it was enough so she decided to go to the church and brought her lover even though he had a different belief.

When Jeanne invited him to go to the church, Haru didn't think too much and agreed with Jeanne's invitation.

Both of them might have different beliefs, but both of them respected each other.

Haru might believe in Shintoism since he owned a shrine, but it didn't mean he didn't know anything about Catholicism which was the largest Christian church in the world.

Haru had to admit that compared to Shintoism that was popular in Japan, Catholicism was even more popular since it could be found in every corner of this world.

Haru also knew that in Japan, Catholicism also became even more popular, but the reason was quite weird. It wasn't because they believed in Catholicism, but because the cost of marriage was cheap.

Unlike marriage for someone who believed in Buddhism or Shintoism which was complicated and expensive, the cost of marriage in the church was cheap, and it was pretty simple since the couple only needed to make a vow under the witnesses of the Lord.

Even though during the marriage, they needed to invite a priest and some of their acquaintances, it was several times cheaper than choosing to marry with Buddhism or Shintoism belief.

Looking at Jeanne's pious prayer on the church, Haru could see that everyone seemed to be affected by her aura and also prayed harder than usual.

The existence of metaphysical might be hidden from the public, but it didn't mean that it could be fully hidden since there were a lot of people who had become the victims of the metaphysical.

Unlike the Saviors, who had the power to fight against metaphysical, a normal human didn't have the power to fight against the metaphysical and they were helpless against it.

In that helpless situation, everyone needed something that they could rely upon and because of that, most of the people in this world were devout believers of some religions.

Haru only sat down calmly, waiting for Jeanne to end her prayer. He closed his eyes and somehow, he felt that something bad might happen since he could feel the wind or rather the atmosphere was a bit weird.

"Haru, wake up," Jeanne said with a helpless voice.

When Haru was in the middle of a thought, he heard Jeanne's voice. He opened his eyes and said, "Sorry, Jeanne, I feel like something might happen later."

Jeanne raised her brow and didn't doubt Haru's words since she knew that her lover's instinct was very accurate.

"Then let's go out."

Jeanne's mood, which was very good after she prayed, quickly turned solemn, hoping that nothing would happen.

Haru nodded and walked out of the church, but then his phone vibrated and he received a call from Jin. He raised his eyebrow and asked directly, "Isurugi-senpai, what's wrong?"

"Kasugano-kun, where are you?"

When Haru and Jin were talking to each other, Jeanne also received a phone call from Sophia.

"A high-ranking metaphysical has appeared! Please come to the school as soon as possible!"

"Are we going to fight against it?"

"No, we're going to standby since the opponent is too dangerous! To defeat this metaphysical, we need the power of S Rank Savior so for now, return to school and wait for help from the headquarters since it is dangerous on the outside!"

Jin didn't want to lose Haru after all since Haru's power was very important for everyone on the Striker. Even though he knew that Haru was powerful, he didn't think that Haru was capable of defeating a high-ranking metaphysical alone after all.

Haru nodded and didn't say much, since he could tell from Jin's words that Jin had decided to give up the people who were attacked by this metaphysical since it was something that they couldn't handle.

Haru could only shake his head and decided to ignore Jin's words, but then after he closed his phone, he received another phone call and this time, it was from Shizuno.

"Haru! Please help us! A metaphysical has appeared in the shopping mall where we---"

Before her words finished, the call was cut off.

"Haru!" Jeanne's expression was very grim.

"Be prepared, Jeanne."

"Yes!"

Haru hugged Jeanne's waist then quickly flew toward the location where the metaphysical had appeared since they needed to beat the shit of this monster.
