Chapter 40

**Episode 040: The Wall of Reason is More Fragile than You Think (Yukki Kana s Perspective)**

 The time goes back to a few days before Kotaro rushed to Academy s health room..

– Yukki Kana s Side

Seiya!

Haa!

 We snuck out in the middle of the night, got past the guards, and defeated the shadow. So far, we had no problem defeating them.

 But because of the darkness, we can t move too boldly, so we don t kill as many as we d like. But it is better than doing nothing. I don t want to be eaten by them.

That s enough for today.

Yes, that s enough for today.

 It was almost twenty-four o clock, and if I didn t go home and sleep soon, I would have trouble the next day. Although there was no danger of losing if we fought normally, it would definitely be dangerous if we were careless. It is very important to get proper sleep.

 I took my sister s suggestion and we returned to school.

We re going to be part of the strike team?

Yeah. What do you think?

As I recall, we were in the running, but we weren t selected, were we? Why now?

 The next day, when we returned from our watch, we were offered the chance to join the defeat squad. But my sister was right, we should have been omitted from that selection due to our age and gender.

 How could it be that we were now being selected?

Well, that s why I heard in the report that you guys are very strong. I wanted to ask you to help us.

Really? Not that we don t mind, but ……

I don t mind either.

Well, thanks for taking care of it.

 He seemed kind of flustered, but without question, we decided to join in as well.

 This was a great opportunity for us, since we would be able to level up in a big way. We ll take care not to make up the level difference by defeating the enemies ourselves as much as possible.

No, we were hoping to do the same.

That s right. I m going to ask you to join us tomorrow, is that okay?

Yes. Yes, that s fine.

Okay. Okay, I ll take care of it then.
