Episode 350: Information sharing(Third Party Perspective)

"We're going to have a girls-only gathering for a while, so you can spend your time as you please."

After finishing talking about the details of the request and eating dinner, Rei suddenly says such.

"Ou, got it."

Fuhito has no particular reason to refuse, so he nods.

"Peeking is no good, Onii-chan."

"That's right, men are not allowed at the girls-only gathering."

"Nn."

"That's excessive. I won't do that."

When Nanami, Amane, and Alexia warn Fuhito not to get close, he shrugs his shoulders with a vexed expression on his face, then sits on the sofa and starts watching TV.

"Everyone, follow me."

Rei turns to the girls and makes a solemn face as she urges them.

"Roger."

"Nn."

"Alright."

Sensing the serious atmosphere, the members nod in return, receive drinks and sweets from Hitomi, and move to Nanami's room.

"So, you suddenly said that we're going to have a girls-only meeting, so I agreed to talk, but what exactly is going on?"

Nanami, Alexia, Amane, and Rei prepare the drinks and sweets on the table in Nanami's room. Rei's words just now were completely ad-lib, but in the unusual situation, everyone moved along in unison.

"About that, we met Amane-chan's uncle the other day, didn't we?"

"Yeah, right."

When Rei asks Amane a question, she raises her hand lightly and nods.

"I think it was the first time that our party, including Fuhito-kun, met someone from some organization after contacting them beforehand and making an appointment."

"Is that so?"

"Probably."

"How does that relate to this girls-only meeting?"

Nanami still doesn't understand why Rei gathered them together, crossing her arms and groaning again.

"That is, it's not the time to be grumbling, there's something I'd like Nanami-chan and Alexia-chan to know, first of all, our party is being watched by multiple organizations. Especially Fuhito-kun."

"Eh!?"

"Nn!?"

Nanami and Alexia are astonished when Rei explains her reasoning, remembering what they don't know yet.

THe two of them never thought that such a thing would happen.

"To be clear here, Fuhito-kun is probably the world's strongest explorer. I don't think he's aware of it."

"Eh!? Is that true!?"

"Nn. He was abnormal from the time I entered school."

Rei continues to talk, Nanami is even more surprised, but Alexia agrees.

It's no wonder Nanami is surprised. After Nanami became an explorer, she had no one to look up to except for Fuhito, and Alexia had become quite strong by that time.

On the other hand, Alexia asked for help after witnessing the power of Fuhito, so it was only natural that she knew.

"Nanami-chan didn't notice because Fuhito-kun, who was already in a strange state, was her standard, but did Alexia-chan notice?"

Rei asks Alexia, who agreed without being surprised.

"Nn. In order to help my parents, I wanted to raise my level as soon as possible, so when I sneaked into the Shushima Dungeon, which was close to my school and its rank increased due to a Dungeon Rebirth, I was saved by Fuu-kun. Just when I was about to be killed by a group of Black Kobolins, Fuu-kun came and annihilated them in an instant."

"Black Kobolin is a B-rank monster. It's not an opponent that a human who has just become an explorer can compete with. I think you can understand the strangeness just by being able to annihilate it in an instant."

"Oh, I see ..."

Listening to their conversation, Nanami once again realizes her brother's power.

"Besides, the stray dungeon you guys found. It was a hall of a place. A-rank monsters appeared from the first floor."

"Umm, Onii-chan and Onee-chan were attacking like they were on a picnic at the time, but ..."

"Hey? That's dangerous, isn't it."

"It seems so ... Hahahaha!"

Nanami can't help but smile wryly as she is confronted with an even more shocking truth.

At the same time, she remembers how carefree she had been following Fuhito-tachi back then, and her body trembles at the thought that if they hadn't been strong, they wouldn't have survived.

"And the most notorious was the Stampede from the sea. If it was just us, we would surely have been outnumbered."

"Ahh~, I thought it was no good at that time."

"That number was really crazy, wasn't it."

"Nn."

The invasion from the sea that they encountered when they went to SpaEmo, which was considered to be the final act. They remember the situation at that time, and each of them felt like their lives were in danger.

"I thought I might die, too. But, considering that he managed to bring such a situation under control with just one blow, you can understand the anomaly."

"Definitely."

"Nn."

"That's true."

Since they themselves share the same thoughts, while agreeing in the same way, Rei emphasizes that he has the power to overturn such a situation.

The other three nod and agree.

"Also, there are only a few people because we control information, but there are people who understand the power of Fuhito-kun just like us. The organizations to which such people belong have their eyes on us."

"Hee~, so that's how it came to this."

Nanami mutters in admiration after receiving Rei's explanation.

"Right. So, this time, we made contact with the Head of the Emergency Response Department of the Toshima Branch of the Explorers Guild. It's possible that this made the organizations that had their eye on us think that the Explorers' Guild was trying to take us in."

"I see. That's what it means!!"

The dots gradually connect. Nanami can also see the story.

"Yeah. The girls' contact with Fuhito-kun this time is the result of the contact between us and the Explorers' Guild, until now, each organization had been keeping each other in check, I think this is the result of everyone starting to move to acquire Fuhito-kun."

"Ahh~!! That's what it is!!"

When the story finally connects completely, Amane shows a refreshed expression as if she had a flash of insight.

"I'm sorry. It's because I let you meet my Uncle without thinking deeply."

"Nope, don't worry about it. I didn't notice either. Besides, I think it's a good opportunity."

However, the next moment she realizes that she is the one who triggered this situation, and Amane looks down helplessly, but at the same time, Rei comforts her, and tells her that she has hope.

"What do you mean?"

"Like I said earlier, Fuhito-kun's combat power is the strongest individual. But, if it's just him, no matter how much power he has, he's still human after all. There are things he can do and things he can't do."

"Yup, that's right."

When Amane asks without understanding, Rei continues, and Amane agrees.

There are many things that Fuhito cannot do alone, such as protecting places where Fuhito cannot go, or searching for information in places where Fuhito cannot go.

"But, with the addition of Luck, he will become a force that can be said to be almost unstoppable."

"Certainly."

However, most of the things that can't be done by him can be covered just by having Luck. Luck is too good.

"In that case, the current situation is the same for Fuhito-kun himself, the chances that the humans that Fuhito-kun thinks are important will be harmed by other powers are close to zero. If so, there is only one way."

There's nothing that cannot be done, this means being able to protect anything you want to protect.

Rei looks around at everyone's faces.

"Fuu-kun will become a new power."

"It's just like that."

When Rei's eyes meet hers, Alexia replies with the same thoughts she has, and Rei nods.
