"Good morning, Tsukasa-kun... It's cold, huh?"
"...Well, it is snowing."
Asakawa-san greeted me while fiddling with her scarf, looking a bit cold. Well, it makes sense—it's snowing, after all.
It's early February, and starting today, school is on flexible attendance. I'll drop by the school today to sort out some things, but I don't plan to come back until graduation. I haven't been able to attend school properly ever since I became an EX-rank explorer in my first year, but I do have some attachment to it. After all, it's where I met people important to me, like Asakawa-san, my first real friend.
"So, I heard you already started the company. Is that true?"
"Well... It's only a formality for now."
I've handled most of the paperwork, so all that's left is for me to graduate and start hiring people. One of the reasons I came to see Asakawa at school today was to talk about that.
