"Why? Is it not quite convenient to do that to me?"
Seeing Kaito thinking beside her for a long time, Miko asked with some uncertainty.
Since she had always been alone, Miko wasn't quite sure what boyfriends and girlfriends usually did.
Although she had a habit of reading light novels, novels were, after all, just novels; they couldn't be taken as truth.
It is indeed inconvenient...
Regarding Miko's question, Kaito silently thought this to himself, and then he said, "It is indeed a bit; after all, we aren't real boyfriend and girlfriend, so doing that wouldn't be very good."
Since his apparent girlfriends were actually just himself, Kaito didn't know what couples usually did either, so he could only give this vague response.
Anyway, if asked, it's just inconvenient; as for the specifics, I don't know.
"Do what, exactly?"
Seeing that Kaito hadn't spoken clearly, Miko was very curious about what this "doing that" actually entailed.
Why is this Miko so curious about matters between men and women...
Is she looking for a man?
Not expecting Miko to keep asking, Kaito felt somewhat helpless.
But helpless or not, having so many "girlfriends," he definitely had to answer this question. "For example, holding hands, kissing, and hugging, et cetera."
Quickly running through some movies and novels he had seen before, Kaito gave his answer.
Real couples would certainly do these things, though he didn't know how frequently.
Holding hands...
Kissing...
And hugging...
Isn't this just like what's described in the novels...?
After listening to Kaito's answer, Miko couldn't help but think this.
Originally, she thought novels were just fiction, but it turned out the descriptions in novels were actually similar to reality.
That's right...
I don't seem to have ever seen Kaito and Mei engage in these behaviors...
Suddenly thinking of this, Miko looked at Kaito.
Although kissing was indeed unsuitable for public display, she hadn't seen the others, such as holding hands or hugging, either.
"So, these behaviors aren't quite suitable for us to do."
While Miko was still thinking about things, Kaito had already spoken again.
"Mn, indeed not quite appropriate." Miko nodded.
Although these actions could increase authenticity, she and Kaito weren't in a real relationship after all, so it still wasn't quite suitable.
Mainly, she would be the one losing out; Kaito wouldn't really lose anything.
Of course, Kaito probably wouldn't care for these things either; after all, with so many girlfriends, he wasn't lacking her as one more.
Afterwards, the two walked all the way to the vicinity of Konda Village on Narukami Island.
Hmm...
Should we go check out the city first?
Since the path ahead either led left towards the Grand Narukami Shrine or continued forward towards Inazuma City, Miko began to ponder.
Although she had initially invited Kaito to go to the shrine together, she didn't just want to visit the shrine; she also wanted to stroll around Inazuma City.
After all, Ei was there, so she had to go check on the situation no matter what.
As for Kaito's strange ability, she wasn't in a rush right now; Kaito wasn't going to run away anyway.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Miko suddenly stop, looking left one moment and forward the next, Kaito, who had also stopped, looked curious.
"How about we go check out the city first?" Turning her head to look at Kaito, Miko made her decision; she planned to check the situation in the city first.
Of course, if Kaito didn't want to, then they would go to the shrine first.
Regardless, at the beginning, she had invited him to the shrine, not Inazuma City.
"Sure, strolling around isn't bad. Staying in the inn all the time was making me moldy."
Kaito nodded, then walked alongside Miko towards Inazuma City.
Since there was a place to visit, he naturally wanted to go; staying in the inn before had been too boring.
If it had been any longer, he would have wanted to go to Inazuma City by himself.
"With so many people accompanying you, could you really get moldy?"
Regarding Kaito's remark, Miko felt something was off.
After all, Kaito wasn't alone in the inn; he had his several girlfriends.
Actually, it's only Lumine and Paimon...
Looking at Miko, Kaito silently thought this, and then he said, "Wendy and the others are bored too."
Anyway, if he was bored, Wendy and the others were bored, so what he said wasn't wrong.
"Then what about Mei? Would she feel bored too?"
Miko was obviously very interested in whether Mei would feel bored.
After all, Mei feeling bored would be a bit like wondering if Ei would be bored in that place; both were quite surprising concepts.
"She wouldn't."
Recalling the personality of the Acheron side, Kaito indicated that she would not feel bored.
It couldn't be helped; that was just her character setting.
"Alright. I thought Mei would feel bored too; that would have been something worth being surprised about."
Kaito's answer clearly fit her expectations.
Afterwards, the two continued chatting as they walked towards Inazuma City, eventually arriving there.
