Ryoma's room was a haven of quiet before Haruto's announcement shattered the stillness. He rose from his resting position, an air of anticipation replacing the calm. Haruto stood at the doorway, his grin suggesting that the long-awaited moment had finally arrived.
"It's time," Haruto declared with enthusiasm, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Ryoma, sensing the urgency in his comrade's words, moved swiftly to gather his belongings.
As Ryoma stepped out of his room and fell into step behind Haruto, he couldn't help but voice his curiosity. "Why all of a sudden?" he questioned, his thoughts swirling with the abruptness of the decision. It hadn't been a week since their arrival, and the timing seemed peculiar.
Haruto's smile widened, and a mischievous glint danced in his eyes. "Your cousin's friend is every bit as skilled as they say, isn't he?" he remarked cryptically, fueling Ryoma's curiosity even more.
