The meeting concluded successfully.
——
"Alright, that's all, kids, you should go home now."
Azure gestured to the two children hiding behind her that they could leave.
The little boy nodded, ready to leave.
The little girl, however, was still holding onto Bilan's hand, reluctant to let go. She was more curious about the battle just now and asked, "Sister Bilan, what were those gunshots... what were those gunshots?"
The little boy quickly stopped her, "Yumi, don't ask things you shouldn't ask!"
"Hey, why can't I ask? Magical girls are my favorite idols, but there aren't any magical girls who can use guns, right?"
"Let's go quickly."
"Ouch, no, brother, stop pulling me! You're so annoying!"
Faced with a stubborn little girl.
The little boy looked at Bilan apologetically, but Bilan smiled and said, "If you want to know the reason, it's very simple. It's because I'm not fighting alone. Bilan... I'm never alone."
"Wow, so handsome! So, are you a comrade-in-arms?"
"Not a companion."
"Huh?"
"They are family."
"ah?"
The little girl paused, somewhat confused, and asked, "What does 'family' mean?"
"Just like your brother would sacrifice himself to protect you in the most dangerous times, Sister Azure also has such a family."
"My brother? Does that mean Sister Azure has a brother too?"
No, that's not it.
"younger brother?"
No, not exactly.
"Not the older brother, not the younger brother, then could it be..." As the process of elimination gradually narrowed down the possibilities, the little girl's pretty face flushed slightly, and her expression became hesitant. "Could it be that Sister Azure is already married..."
Before he could finish speaking...
Suddenly, the blue index finger touched the little girl's lips, and he smiled gently at her. That smile was so tender that she never forgot it.
"You have to keep it a secret, okay? I think I've said a bit too much, because this is something that can't be made public."
"That big brother must be a superhero, right?"
How did you know?
"Because the one who can be worthy of Sister Azure must be a prince charming, a great hero! Sister Azure must think so too, right?"
"No, he is my hero alone."
That's all I have to say.
Azure glanced at the little boy, who seemed to understand something and nodded in reply, "I'll keep it a secret, Azure sister."
"What you did just now was brave, but also very foolish. You can't do it again next time."
"sorry."
"Alright, you should go back now, brave little heroes."
"Yes! Thank you, Sister Azure."
After the final wave goodbye.
The little boy, holding his still reluctant sister's hand, embarked on the road home.
Azure also withdrew her gaze, looked up at the rooftop of a tall building in the distance, smiled happily, and leaped off, speeding away in that direction.
And there.
Lorraine was putting away his precision sniper rifle, the CS/LR4 sniper rifle, and cleaning up all the spent shell casings from the previous battle.
The battle is over.
However, there was no joy of victory on Lorraine's face; instead, his expression was heavy with gloom and solemn.
