Chapter 47 - Chapter 47: Muse in a Dream

"Hmm? Why do I feel like I heard Mr. Kamijou's scream? Shiina, did you hear it?"

Yoshino, who had walked some distance, heard Kamijou Touma's scream and asked Shiina, who was secretly laughing, somewhat uncertainly.

"He probably ran into some bad luck again, Yoshino. Don't forget that because of his 'Imagine Breaker,' his luck is constantly being nullified. It's not strange for him to encounter bad luck, is it?"

Shiina, who had secretly used the power of her necklace to sense the situation, felt deep concern for Kamijou Touma's current predicament.

It seemed that no matter which world, the loli con cult was invincible, especially when they were obsessed with a loli as cute as Yoshino.

"That's true. But he just ran into bad luck a few minutes after we separated. Isn't Mr. Kamijou a bit too unlucky?"

Thinking of various scenes from anime, like stepping on a phone or a bank card, she helplessly expressed that Mr. Kamijou was truly too unlucky.

"But you don't need to worry too much, Yoshino. You have to know that he's a person who has lived in this state for over ten years. He's already developed an invincible psychological endurance. If an ordinary person had to go through this every day, they would probably think about committing suicide sooner rather than later, not living so tenaciously."

Shiina, who had already considered Kamijou Touma an unkillable cockroach, raised her hand and lectured Yoshino.

..."Let's go back and prepare dinner for Mr. Accelerator first. This isn't Yoshino's concern, and Yoshino can't manage so many things." Saying this, she turned and went home.

Meanwhile, Shiina seemed to sense something, quickly turning around to look behind her, only to find no one there.

'No one? Then it must be the A.A.A.? It seems you still can't resist observing Yoshino, Aleister Crowley. I hope you don't do anything out of line. In this world, if you provoke Yoshino, your Guardian Angel Aiwass won't be enough.'

Thinking with a hint of displeasure, she used her spiritual power combined with the necklace's power to make Yoshino disappear from the A.A.A.'s surveillance.

At the same time, in the 'Windowless Building' in Academy City's District 7, Aleister Crowley, wearing a green surgical gown and suspended upside down in the red liquid of a four-meter diameter, ten-meter long life support device made of tempered glass, saw everything.

"It disappeared. It seems the plan needs to change."

For the unstable factor that was Yoshino, he absolutely had to adjust his plan.

"Stop it, Edward. She is not someone you can afford to provoke, nor is she someone I can provoke. Absolutely do not treat her as a pawn. If you anger her, no one can save you."

Aiwass, who was invisibly beside him, warned with a serious tone.

"Oh, who exactly is she? Even you are uncertain. Could she be some deity?" Aleister Crowley asked indifferently.

His Guardian Angel could deal with most troubles, so why did it seem like it was chickening out this time?

..."I cannot say. If I do, I will be punished. In a necessary situation, if I had to choose sides, I could only stand on her side. Do you understand the seriousness of the matter?"

Are you kidding? I knew this little girl's identity from the beginning.

That was the law of this world, an established fact that no one could violate.

A large number of bubbles appeared in the life support device, engulfing Aleister Crowley completely. After a long while, the bubbles gradually disappeared.

"I understand. I will revise my plan."

It's better to temporarily retreat from this unknown, mysterious power.

In the evening, after preparing dinner and cleaning up, Yoshino came to the living room. Having nothing else to do, she closed her eyes, hoping to doze off on the sofa for a while.

Suzuya Yuriko would be back in about an hour, so it was a good time to rest.

With that thought, Yoshino's consciousness gradually drifted away, slowly entering a dream.

In her dream, Yoshino arrived at the entrance of Otonokizaka Academy's Idol Research Club. She opened the door and found everyone inside, as expected.

"Oh my, I didn't expect to see Yoshino in just three days. How wonderful."

Kousaka Honoka hugged Yoshino the moment she appeared, rubbing her little face repeatedly.

"It's only been three days for us, but who knows how long it's been for Yoshino. The flow of time between different worlds is not the same, and we can't be sure how long we can stay connected. It must have been a while for Yoshino, right?"

Sonoda Umi poured Yoshino a cup of tea, then pulled Kousaka Honoka, who was clinging to Yoshino, away, completely ignoring her pitiful expression.

"Yes, over a month has passed for me. I'm studying in middle school."

"Oh my, that must be tough, Yoshino. To be a high school student but have to study in middle school, it seems you'll be going to school for a long time, experiencing different grades." Toujou Nozomi said playfully. Being a student all the time really isn't fun.

"Yoshino, tell Rin what kind of world you're in now, meow? Rin is really curious, meow."

Yoshino saw everyone looking at her with curious eyes, so she simply narrated the events.

"Is that so... A person who becomes heartless to avoid hurting others. How pitiful. To think that becoming 'invincible' from 'the strongest' would mean not hurting anyone, isn't that a bit naive? But it's certainly a very well-disguised mask." Toujou Nozomi felt a little sorry for Suzuya Yuriko after hearing Yoshino's description.

"But calling herself 'This great me' to disguise her female identity, isn't that unexpectedly cute? When Yoshino is by her side, she seems like she wants to be fierce but can't, or wants to lose her temper but softens her heart when she sees Yoshino's pitiful expression, unable to bring herself to act. It seems she really is a lolicon. Yoshino, you're in danger now."

Ayase Eli was concerned about another aspect. After all, unlike the gender-unknown character in the original work, this was Suzuya Yuriko, whose gender was truly known to be female. Who knows what she might do now.

"It's fine, Accelerator-san, although her words can be a bit harsh, she's a very gentle person."

If only she could honestly say my cooking is delicious.

"Accelerator-san? It seems Yoshino isn't planning to expose her identity."

Yazawa Nico also spoke, a little curious about how things would unfold.

"Yes, after all, Accelerator-san has only just revealed her true feelings to Yoshino. It's not the right time yet."

"Yoshino is also a very cunning child." Minami Kotori stepped forward and stroked Yoshino's head.

Then everyone chatted about what had happened on their respective sides. After a while, Yoshino's body slowly began to turn transparent; time was up.

"Everyone, Accelerator-san is back. See you next time." She hugged everyone one by one and waved goodbye.

Yoshino, lying on the sofa, opened her eyes and saw Accelerator taking off her shoes in the entryway. She stood up to greet her.

"Welcome home! Accelerator-san."

"...I'm home. Brat."

There's already a good start, isn't there?
