Mebu's weakness - 4

[Gold Tower, cafeteria]

Suz: Another way?

Shi: Yeah...

[Shizuku's imagination]

Suz: Fuhahaha! I have the shachihoko from the keep! If you want it back...

Meb: Suzume... The model kits in this room were all built by me... They're my children...

Suz: Eeek!?

Meb: You hurt my child... That's a grave sin! Prepare yourself! And say your final prayers!

Suz: Gyaaaaaah!

Shi: ...That's how it'll go.

Suz: Nooooo! Mebu, I'm sorry!

Aya: Ahaha... Mebuki-senpai isn't a scary person like that.

Aya: But why do you want to know Mebuki-senpai's weakness?

Suz: Well, there's this and that...

Aya: Huh, so that's how it was. Your training is too hard...

Aya: I know! I'll try talking to Mebuki-senpai about it, then.

Suz: Ayaya, you?

Aya: Yeah. I'm sure we'll be able to find a compromise.

Aya: It would be bad if everyone's exhaustion kept building up, so maybe it'd be good to give them more break time?

Meb: Hmm...

Aya: The Sentinels' battle dresses are a variation of the Hero system. And they say the Hero system is affected by the user's mental state.

Meb: Really?

Aya: Yes. It doesn't let you transform if your mind is unstable... So it could be possible that the battle dresses work the same way.

Meb: Hmm... You're right. I got it, I'll increase the time left allocated for breaks then.

Suz: Eeeeeeeeeh!?

Meb: What's wrong, Suzume?

Suz: Isn't your attitude, like, way different from how it was with me!?

Aya: Huh, I don't think...

Meb: Su-zu-me... With you it was because... All you ever think about is how to take a break.

Suz: Rgh!.. So it's the difference in our usual behaviour...

Meb: And by the way, I'll increase time for breaks, but in return I won't forgive any slacking off. Got that, Suzume?

Suz: Okay...
