Driving around the Tootsuki Academy, they were searching for the perfect spot to create kiviak.
They would definitely avoid a crowded place and would choose a place that didn't have that many people or even a deserted place since the smell of this dish was disastrous.
"Is it alright to use any place in this school?" Haru asked. He might not have seen kiviak, but it didn't mean that he didn't know anything about it. Kiviak was known for its horrible smell, and he was afraid to create trouble for this school.
"It's alright! This school is huge! Even if we bury a human body, they might not find it," Alice said trying to reassure him.
"............."
Haru ignored the last part, but he nodded.
Tootsuki Academy was built on the top of the mountain, and there were a lot of spots that hadn't been touched by a human and were left alone since the area of this school was so wide.
"But why do you want to create this dish? Why not eat it directly in Greenland? Also, what are you doing in Greenland? Hunting a polar bear?" Alice asked.
"If I do that then animal protection organizations might sue me." Haru was speechless and said, "But well, I'm just curious since a lot of people say that the taste of this dish is similar to natto (Japanese fermented soybean) and rice bran."
"Well, I have never created, eaten, or seen this dish, and it might be a good chance to enrich my knowledge," Alice said. Well, she was more interested in Haru than this bizarre dish. She also wouldn't think to make one if he didn't bring the ingredients.
"Thanks for helping me," Haru said.
Alice waved her mind and smiled. "Don't worry, don't worry, it's better for us to search for the location first!"
Haru nodded and kept looking around to see which location was good for the production of kiviak.
Alice looked at Haru and smiled since she had two purposes to help him.
First was because she wanted to know how Haru felt about Erina.
The second was because she wanted to learn more about him.
Even though she could see that Erina was attracted to him, but she needed to know about his personality, however, she had to admit that she also started to be attracted to him. She hurriedly shook her head and felt quite immoral when she thought about it.
'I can't fall for Erina's fiance!'
Haru looked at Alice who kept shaking her head and wondering what this girl was trying to do. But considering her weird personality, he didn't think too much.
Driving around, suddenly they met a large mansion that was dilapidated and covered in wild plants quite far from the main building of Tootsuki Academy.
"This place is?" Haru was a bit surprised and didn't expect to see an abandoned building, but he quickly used his Kenbunshoku Haki and realized that there were people living inside which made him a bit surprised. He was wondering who would be living in this far place, but in the end, he didn't think too much.
"Isn't this place good?" Alice asked.
"If there are people who are living in that place then it'll be troublesome," Haru said since he knew very well that the smell of kiviak wasn't very pleasant.
"It's alright, it's alright, there's no way that someone is living in that place," Alice said with a reassuring expression.
"Well, let's just do it in that place, it is covered in trees."
Haru pointed at the large spot which was 100 meters away from the dilipated building. There was enough space in that place which was very good for their activity.
"Good, let's go there!" Alice said excitedly.
At this moment, the door of the dilapidated building was being opened and showed a figure of a girl with long dark blue hair with two braided pigtails looking at the outside car curiously.
"What's wrong, Tadokoro-san?"
"I - Isshiki-senpai?!" She was startled then she calmed herself. "There is a huge car suddenly stopping in front of the dorm."
"Really?"
The guy looked around but didn't see the car, however, he heard the sound of a car in the nearby forest.
The location of this place was quite deserted and there weren't any people making a slight noise to become very noticeable.
"Hmm, I wonder what are they doing...."
"S - Should we call Fumio-san?"
"No, I'm curious, and let's see what is happening." The guy stepped out from the door and showed his figure who was wearing a naked red apron with a bear motif in the middle.
"....."
The girl was too speechless to say anything.
"Tadokoro-san, do you want to go with me to check it?"
"E - Eh?!"

Stopping in the middle of nowhere, the three of them got out of the car and started to prepare to create a kiviak.
It was January and the weather was still winter, which made the temperature quite cold but for Alice who had nordic blood on her veins. It was nothing for her.
Kurokiba was also the same since he was living in a cold place in his childhood.
Haru took a shovel and started to dig up the ground.
Kurokiba also helped him to dig up the ground together.
Alice was on the side and started to cheer them on while singing.
"............."
Haru and Kurokiba didn't say anything in response, only stared at with deadpan expressions, but it was ignored by Alice.
Haru didn't stop her since he also didn't want her to do manual work. He didn't bring his smartphone and placed it on the car. It might be because the network in this area was quite bad that it was quite hard to contact him.
---
Erina tried to call him several times, but the result was the same that the network was so bad that the call couldn't be connected. She also tried to call Alice, but the result was the same.
"This damn phone!"
Erina wanted to throw away her phone, but she stopped and thought about searching around the school area.
"I can't believe that I can't find you at school!"
Erina went out of her grandfather's office to search for Haru and Alice.
---
This girl's name is Tadorokoro Megumi. She was formed by her upperclassmen to follow the car which suddenly appeared in front of her dorm.
"Shhh!"
The young man who was only wearing a naked apron in the middle of winter made a quiet gesture to Megumi.
"W - What's wrong, Isshiki-senpai?" Tadokoro asked nervously.
Isshiki pointed at the car that showed a three-figure who tried to dig up the ground. "They might try to bury a corpse."
"WH----"
Tadokoro wanted to scream, but her mouth was hurriedly closed by Isshiki.
"Shhh!" Isshiki made a gesture to be quiet and said, "My clothes are very light and my movement is very quiet. I'll check them."
"I - Is that alright? What if it gets dangerous?" Tadokoro asked in worry.
"It's for the safety of the dorm. If it is for everyone, I can sacrifice myself," Isshiki said with a determined expression.
"I - Isshiki-senpai....." Tadokoro was moved and also sad when she heard about Isshiki's determination.
"Stay here, and run if something happens to me," Isshiki said with a serious expression.
"N - No, Isshiki-senpai!" Tadokoro wanted to stop Isshiki, but she was too late since he had walked toward them slowly. Isshiki's butts started to get blurry since her eyes were covered in tears thinking about the sacrifice of her upperclassman.

After digging up the ground, Haru and Kurokiba put two large styrofoam boxes from the car to the spot near the hole which they had dug before. They opened the box and showed the body of a large seal and 500 auks bird.
"It's really surprising that you're able to get all of the ingredients," Alice said. She knew that those ingredients were quite rare.
"Yeah, I'm also surprised myself," Haru said since when he went to Hundred's world he had hunted seal along with auks bird. Of course, he had checked the animals that it was free from the Savage virus.
It would be quite terrible if he brought a virus from another world to this world since he didn't want to change this peaceful world into a war-torn world.
"What should we do next?" Kurokiba asked since he was also quite curious.
"I'll clean up the innards of the seal before I put all of the birds inside," Haru said, but then he noticed a pervert was looking at them.
How did he know that it was a pervert? Because Haru didn't think that someone would go out in the middle of winter with only a naked apron. He could see this person's butt from the side of the tree made him quite speechless.
"What's wrong?"
Alice and Kurokiba also turned their heads, but they also saw this pervert who only wore a naked apron.
"......."
The four of them only looked at each other for a moment and weren't sure what to say to each other.
"Do you want to help us?"
Haru thought to start an initiative.
