Auspicious bustle of the first sunrise - 1-2N [Hero Club room] Hin: Looks like this year won't end simply and peacefully either. Mit: Yeah. Nogi-san and Utanon said all that, but I'm still worried... Aya: I hope everyone stays safe... [Jukai] Yum: It is here! It is time! It is finally time! Sek: Whoa whoa, calm down, Miroku-san. You're going to run out of steam halfway through at this rate. Nat: Alright! Gin, let's go! Gin: Got it, Natsume-san! Daaaaah! Sum: Ah, Gin! Natsume-san! ...Aah, the two of them left already. Son: Mino-san and Natsume-san get along really well, don't they? They're perfectly in sync in battle. Yum: I shall follow suit! Sek: Alright, hold on. I don't think it's a good idea for three people out of us six to rush forward right from the start. Yum: But! I must distinguish myself in battle, as befits a member of the Miroku house! Sek: Fighting at the frontline isn't all distinguishing yourself is about. Sek: Plus since you're descendant of the famous Miroku clan, you're our ultimate weapon, Miroku-san. So we need to hold you in reserve! Mir: Ultimate weapon... Miroku clan! Mir: I-Is that so... Why, if that is the case, then I must conserve my powers! Son: Waah, Sekka-senpai managed to seize Miroku-senpai's heart in a blink of an eye! Sum: Sonocchi, don't say that out loud. She finally managed to get Miroku-san to accept that too. Son: Okay, Wasshi. Got it. Son: By the way, doesn't "Miroku clam" sound delicious? Sum: It's "Miroku clan". Sek: Hey, Sumi-chan. How are Gin-chan and Natsume-san doing? Sum: They're already engaged in battle... Nat: Haah! Hah! Gin: Teiyaaa! Sum: ...And it looks like they're managing to crush the vanguard of the first Vertex wave. Sek: Roger. Those of us that can attack from a distance should cover the two so the enemy doesn't rush at them. Sek: I'll take care of the ones that look like their main force. Sumi-chan and Miroku-san, I'll leave the others to you. Sum: Understood. Mir: This must also be a part of the strategy to conserve my energy... Roger that, understood! Sek: Sonoko-chan, look for the right timing and switch places with either of them on the frontlines, alright? Son: Got it! Sek: Alright then. Sumi-chan, Miroku-san, time to start attacking. Sum: Miroku-san, I'll take the right side. Yum: I shall aim for the left side then. Witness the power of an ultimate weapon!
