**Episode 013: Trust from Bias**
“Do you know the nearest evacuation center around here?”
“Probably the city hall.”
Yuna answered my question after some thought. It was the answer I had expected.
However, I didn’t want to go there because the extroverts who left me behind in front of the enemies are likely to be there. I don’t want to meet them, but I don’t want to take these girls with me around.
“Yeah, I feel the same way...”
I muttered involuntarily as unpleasant feelings overwhelmed me.
“Is something wrong?”
“No, I can’t go into details, but it’s better not to go there.”
Yuna noticed my displeasure, and without going into details, I shook my head and suggested going to another place.
There was no need to tell them about those people, and I didn’t want to. I didn’t want to make them aware of it unnecessarily by providing information.
“Y-Yeah, sure!?”
“Got it, big sister. You’re too easy to understand.”
When I made a serious request, Yuna, blushing intensely for some reason, hurriedly responded, and Kana, while looking at her sister with a cold gaze, lightly nudged her with her elbow and responded.
“W-What’s the matter? Feeling unwell?”
Yuna turned even redder. Worried that she might be enduring some illness, I peered into her face.
Getting sick in this situation would be too dangerous. Although I have a few potions, they might not work against an illness, and in the current situation where hospitals might not be functioning, it would be difficult to cure.
“N-No, I’m fine.”
Yuna distanced herself from me at an incredible speed, waving her hands in front of her body. Her face was extremely red.
“Well, lying in this situation is not good. It’s too late if something happens.”
I was concerned about her red face, so I pressed on.
“I-It’s really okay...”
With her face turned away, she distanced herself from me once again.
Could it be that she hates me? Or maybe I smell bad?
While thinking about such things, I sniffed my own scent.
It doesn’t smell... right?
But I can’t really tell my own scent.
Gradually becoming uneasy, I started to worry if I smelled bad.
“It’s okay, Kotaro doesn’t smell. Big sister is just embarrassed, so don’t worry about it.”
“Kana!!”
“Well, well. If that’s the case, it’s fine.”
Whether she sensed my worry or not, Kana explained her sister’s actions, and whether she hit the mark or not, Yuna scolded her angrily.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the heartwarming scene between the two.
They always manage to make people laugh like this. At the same time, I was relieved from the bottom of my heart that I didn’t smell bad.
I would want to die if my reality-based crush told me I smelled.
“Now that our feelings have settled, shall we go?”
“Yeah.”
“Sure.”
We started walking cautiously towards Arisugawa Academy, the destination they chose.@@@@
