Hanayui no Shou 28-3N

[Jukai]

Aka: Okay, where should I start? Hmm... Right, let's start with the beginning of the Divine Era.

Nat: You said you were bad at explaining things, are you going to be alright?

Aka: I practiced in front of the fake Vertexes, Onee-sama. I'll be fine.

Aka: Through the efforts of the great original Heroes of the Christian Era, led by Nogi Wakaba, Shikoku achieved a long-lasting peace.

Tam: Let's hear that in more detail. What happened to Tama!?

Aka: ...

Tam: W-What? Say something already.

Aka: ...Heehee, just kidding. I don't know what happened to each one of you. I'm from a generation that's after yours.

Tam: Guuuh, you think you can tease me, huh?

Meb: Let's just let her talk. If we start interjecting in the middle, she'll probably evade the question.

Aka: When the Stardust first attacked humanity, people began to fear the heavens.

Aka: Nogi-san's team should know about it, right? About uranophobia.

Chi: ...Yeah.

Aka: But sometimes fear can be synonymous with respect. And in the end, people who worshipped the heavenly god appeared in Shikoku.

Aka: In other words, people who would punish them were needed. And that's me. And my partner, Miroku Renge.

Yum: That is... the revered ancestor of the Miroku family. Although I bear little resemblance to her.

Aka: Yeah. She was more of a raven-haired beauty... Hehehe.

Aka: Anyway, back to the topic. I didn't transform into a Hero, but the Shinju-sama granted me power to fulfill my duties.

Wak: The same state as we were in when returning from Shimane to Shikoku, then... You mentioned this before.

Aka: I could unleash some power even without having a Hero outfit. Not enough to fight a Vertex, but enough to restrain a human.

Aka: And so, the Akamine family became a Taisha clan that specialised against human targets.

Aka: Training against fairies made for training in a facility hidden away from view in the mountains.

Aka: ...Phew. Am I getting through to you? Try to keep up, okay?

Kar: It's nice of her to blurt out so much info on her own, but it's kind of throwing me off.

Meb: The atmosphere's still electric. Karin, let's stay on our toes.
