LORAINE'S POV:
"You've been around for a long time, you know, even though we haven't been together for only 2 days, I feel lonely without you. I touched Eiji's cheek with my index finger.
"..." Eiji just fell silent and smiled.
Eiji looked at me and smiled, his brown eyes were very beautiful, his gaze was calm but looked a little cheerful, only he could protect us, he was the one who managed to bring me safely from the first mission.
In this crumbling world there are no more people like Eiji I think, he is the one who will look after his friends, when we are all threatened he is the one who steps forward.
We were still walking towards a place that Eiji said was safer than near the stairs, because while waiting for Eiji the four of us slept and stayed near the stairs.
Eiji opened the hologram screen that was floating in front of him, I looked at it out of curiosity, he opened the message, I saw there was a girl's name on it.
It's like I've violated his privacy, but why do I feel jealous when I see that name :( huhu.
"You read it Loraine? "Eiji asked me that with a smile, he seemed to know that I read it.
"Y... yes, I read it, sorry. "I answered him brokenly, I thought he would be angry because I read it, his response after hearing what I said was just a smile.
"When I was dying after fighting the snake, I wanted to send you a message, but I thought that would make you anxious, so I chose to just tell Tessia. He said in a gentle tone.
"I think I'll be calmer if you text me, that's an absurd reason you know. " I pinched his cheek hard and as usual he just remained silent.
"Ah, really? If so, it's my fault, sorry. He apologized softly, I continued playing with his hair while walking.
"Eiji, may I ask a question? "
"Of course. "
"Who is Sherlyn on your message screen earlier? I'm curious. " did he help other Girls out there on the way here.
"Ah, he's my friend who accompanies me to recover my mana"
(Dark girl 'Sherlyn' Sends a message to Loraine.)
There was a notification on my screen, apparently there was a message that had not been read, this was sent by the dark girl Sherlyn, her last name was very similar to the one on Eiji's message screen, she sent a message to me.
Message :
Sherlyn : Sorry to disturb your time with Eiji, I'm the dark girl Sherlyn, who were you asking me? I am the Assistant of the Dark King Eiji, I have no relationship with him nor can I enter your world at this time. for now I am in a world of darkness and shadow. This world is the resting world of the Dark King and his army. Btw I support you with Eiji and don't tell this to Eiji. Thank you Loraine Candidate *i**t Q***n
"How long will it take for us to arrive. "Wein asked, who was no longer strong enough to carry Sherry, he was breathing quickly.
"It looks like it's close, be patient, I brought some food and drink. "He really knows what we need, we haven't eaten since yesterday, I can't cast spells anymore, he really cares.
"Food, I can't wait. Tessia, Wein and Sherry said the same thing.
Eiji remains the same as he was at school, I often see him playing basketball, the look he gives is calm and collected, even when there are martial arts events, he manages to win without fear, his face remains calm when fighting. At the exam he was the calmest person among the other students.
And why am I attracted to him, but I think I already have the answer to why I like him.
EIJI'S POV:
I felt strange, why Loraine kept looking at me with a red face and a soft gaze, it seemed like she had a fever because her face suddenly turned red.
"Loraine, do you have a fever? "I asked him because when I looked at his face, his face became redder and suddenly I realized that if his face was red, it could be because he was embarrassed, angry, nervous and falling in love. I think if I'm embarrassed it could be because we haven't seen each other for 2 days, and I'm also nervous. If I'm angry, maybe he's angry with me for not telling him, and falling in love seems 100% impossible.
"Ah, my face is red? Ah, no, I don't have a fever, forget it." He looked embarrassed after answering.
"It seems Loraine is in love with Eiji. Tessia teased Loraine, Loraine's face turned even redder, as if she was distracting her by pressing her face against my head.
"Hahah... it seems like that's true and Eiji, you have to be more sensitive. Tessia teased again.
Wein, Sherry and Tessia laughed and teased about this all the way.
***
"How long will it take for us to arrive? Wein asked, he seemed very hungry and tired, they went through that torture, maybe it was more painful than fighting Kraosaka.
"There it is, in front of you seat and it looks like it's the end of the station. Sherry answered while pointing ahead, that place was the waiting area for the subway train.
*We walk there*
***
??? (3) : People are getting more arrogant, some of them are talking about us.
??? (1) : They would be very stupid if they really wanted to fight us, and the Dark King's weapon has almost gathered its strength.
??? (4) : The possibility of succeeding in being free from us is more than 1 month.
***
I put Loraine in a seat where her leg was injured so she couldn't walk for some time, I took out Food from the Storage Realm.
"Wow, the food is still hot, I can still see the smoke from the food. "They were very happy, they haven't eaten for a long time. I got this food from Sherlyn, and didn't expect that Storage Realm could keep the food hot and fresh.
It seems like they really depend on me, I have to enable them to develop and take care of themselves.
"Come on, eat it, I'm still full, I brought it for you on purpose. "They ate it with gusto, they really hadn't eaten for 2 days. It could be seen from the way they ate very quickly with large portions.
"Is it true that you are still full? . ", asked Loraine who sat leaning against my body.
"Yes, I'm really still full, and why are you leaning on me when there's a chair for you to lean on?" He prefers to lean against me rather than leaning against the back of a chair.
"Can't I lean on you? OK, if you can't. Loraine answered with a smile and teased a little, I don't know what she was thinking.
He still leaned against me even though this wasn't a problem because no one was looking, and the only ones looking were my friends.
(Dark Girl "Sherlyn" Requests you to come to the Realm of Darkness.)
Why did he ask me to go there, maybe this is important but how do I get there in a situation like this.

Sherlyn : Eiji, hurry to the realm of darkness. I have given Loraine permission to borrow you for a moment. I need you immediately. This is important.
It seemed important and why did he ask Loraine's permission? I looked at Loraine she was chatting with Sherlyn. "You already know, right? " I asked Loraine that.
"Yes, Sherlyn wants to borrow you for a moment, she says it's important. "With a smile he told me to hurry up because it was important and he had also told me that he had become quite close to Sherlyn.
"Okay, everyone, if something happens, wake me up, okay? I wiped Loraine's head, she seemed calmer and her face was red again.
I cast the spell of the Realm of Darkness "From the Darkest to the Darkest, awaken me in eternal darkness. "I fell asleep accompanied by a dark army that protected me from anything dangerous.
"What is he doing?. Wein asked in confusion.
"He was having a meeting, and I didn't know anything else other than that. Loraine answered while chewing food, and thought that if she told him Eiji was the Dark King it would make him have to explain everything.
"Finish it first Loraine, then talk, Haha. ha ha. Tessia looked at Loraine because when she spoke Loraine was very funny.
***
"Welcome Back Mr. Eiji the King of Darkness. " Sherlyn seems to be using a voice substitute to talk like this, she is a person who likes to joke even though this is important.
I'm already in the Realm of Darkness where the Realm of Darkness has 95% of its true form, it turns out that the shape is just a room or a small house is wrong, after 95% it's more like a palace.
"Hi, Eiji, what about his almost 100% shape." He waved at me. he ran towards me and said "Come on quickly I have to show you some things you should be aware of. " he pulled my hand and walked inside the palace.
"Lyn, how important is this? "I asked him so that his face wouldn't be too worried.
"It's very important, and also I miss it. "Heh, Miss you? Ah yes, his name is also assistant :)
****
We have arrived at the information place, this place is usually used by Sherlyn to search for information on earth and the nine heavens.
He has access to world information and even the Universe, as if the system supports him.
"What happened? I asked him again because his face looked more worried than before.
Sherlyn went to one of her holographic computers, she turned on the projector screen and told me to take better care of my friends.
I looked at the large projector screen, Sherlyn went to the screen and said "In about 36 days the Sword of eternal darkness will come to you, this is the good news while the bad news....."
"What's the bad news? "I asked him because he suddenly stopped and looked for something in his desk drawer.
"Ah, sorry, I'll continue. " He again pointed out some of his bad things.
"Firstly, if the sword is in your hands, the Supreme Rulers will not hesitate to order the demon knights to kill you.
Second, this is about the prizes that will be given in the Mission/Scenario/Quest. These prizes are in the form of Power, Immortality, Fame and strength. "
He told me a lot of bad news but those were the only two that Sherlyn reminded me not to ignore. I was also told to take better care of my team
"If you have to go back immediately, take care of yourself Eiji. "I have received it all from him. I will do what he says because it all happened very quickly and is not normal," said Sherlyn.
"Hurry back. Your friend needs you now. Sherlyn told me to go back.
