Sleeping together is a very important factor."

"Look at that! Even I am useful!"

However Origami, showed her denial again.

"Even with that, just me is more than enough."

"Do,don't joke with me! I'm the one who's much better at sleeping together!"

Tohka and Origami's gazes met and *spark**spark* fireworks exploded all around them.

After Shidou covered himself with the futon, as if she was waiting for this to happen, Kaguya went on all fours while lifting Shidou's futon.

"Kuku........looks like Shidou prefers sleeping together with me."

"Objection. Yuzuru is much superior than Kaguya even in terms of sleeping together. If you want warmth then please allow Yuzuru."

"No, it's weird! Something is weird!"

When Shidou became desperate and stopped them, Kaguya and Yuzuru stared into wonder blankly.

"What.....? Isn't skin contact the best way to get warm?"

"Agree. Yuzuru have heard that is the case."

"I,It is not a snowy mountain so, I'm okay alone........"

Shidou grabbed tightly onto the futon from his chest, and said that as if trying to escape from them. In terms the appearance, it was like the heroine getting attacked by hoodlums.

When he did that, Yuzuru *Pon* hit her hand as if she was convinced about something and made a small nod.

She then slowly stood up and she unraveled the obi that was tying her yukata together.

""Wha......!?""

Kaguya's and Shidou's confusion were piled together magnificently.

But Yuzuru was not bothered and looked down at Shidou calmly. Peeking at her captivating skin and matching underwear worn on top and bottom from the slit of the unraveled Yukata, Shidou's heartbeat accelerated strangely.

"Wha, whawha what are........"

"Understood. Speaking of which, teacher said there is no meaning unless there is direct skin contact if it is warming up."

"What is with that super theory!?"

Even when Shidou raised a scream-like voice, Yuzuru was not bothered and entered the futon.

She then took Shidou's trembling left arm and slid it into the middle of her Yukata.

"Huaa!?"

Shidou's face turned red and he shouted. Although he couldn't see it by himself but, there was probably smoke coming out from his ears and head.

"Wai, wha,what are you squirming around for!"

"Ignore. It's okay that Kaguya does not know. It is an adult space inside the futon."

When Yuzuru said that, Kaguya ground her teeth together in frustration.

"Do, don't look down on meeee!"

She then placed her hands on her obi with vigor and *BASAAT* removed it.

"Wha........!?"

Shidou's eyes stared into wonder. Since she purged her obi more vigorously than Yuzuru, her Yukata got flipped up for an instant. What's more——

"Wh,why are you naked Kaguyaa!?"

Yes. Even Yuzuru was wearing a bra and panties under her yukata, but Kaguya was right now, not wearing anything at all. He closed his eyes in panic.

"..........! Shock. To go to that extent."

Yuzuru was also opening her eyes in shock. After looking at both of their reactions, Kaguya let out her voice while being confused.

"Eh? Aren't yukatas, suppose to be something like this? Because what Tohka said was——"

"No, it may be the correct way but even so!"

"Eh, Eeei, I don't care anymore......!"

After entering an excited state, Kaguya shouted in desperation, just like that, she dove into Shidou's futon.

She then took Shidou just like what Yuzuru did, and used both her legs to entwine Shidou's body.

"We,well........Shidou. Feel my healing powers........! I am warmer than the likes of Yuzuru. Look, Yuzuru has a somewhat chilly feeling!"

"Objection. Kaguya is the one who has the lonely breasts; there should be less calorific value."

"Kuha.....!?"

Caught up in the dispute between the two of them, Shidou tensed his whole body while exhaling.

But as long as he is imprisoned inside the futon, his body will be pushed from both sides. The gentle feeling of their skin clinging onto him, the feeling of breath coming to his ears, or the faint drifting smell of their sweat, if he were to feel all of that it would be bad. As expected it looks like he can't endure much longer.

"Control. Kaguya, Shidou's face is turning very red."

"What did you say? Even though both of us are warming him up, are you saying we made his condition even worse?"

"Hypothesis. The reason is probably because of a Kaguya allergy. Try taking some distance."

"D,don't say it like someone is house dust!"

"Proposal. Leaving jokes aside, we must do something about this."

"Do something...........what are you saying we should do?"

"Proposal. Speaking of which, while saying to touch directly, don't you think the skin contact zone is limited?"

And thus, when he thought Yuzuru said that, she released her hand that was entangled with Shidou's right arm unexpectedly.

*Hoou*.........he then relaxed a relief sigh. But in the next moment, Shidou stiffened his body once again.

The reason was something simple. Yuzuru's hands started to unravel the obi that was tying Shidou's yukata together.

"Wai, Sto, wha,what!?"

Shidou became teary-eyed and shouted but, Yuzuru's hand didn't look like it would stop. On the contrary, even Kaguya too had noticed Yuzuru's actions half-way, her face turned red while coming to strip Shidou's yukata undauntedly.

"Ki, Kyaaaaaaaaaa! Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

"Shut up, Silence! You're making it hard to strip!"

"Agree. It's not like you're an innocent baby anyway."

The futon stirred relentlessly, and coming from the side *Poi*, the yukata Shidou was wearing got thrown out.

Frankly speaking, he had no idea what was done to him. It was like a good magic trick.

However, the nightmare didn't stop there. The next thing that Yuzuru and Kaguya placed their fingers on was Shidou's last fortress; his pants.

"We,well........This is the last."

"Affirmation. Let's do it in one go."

While in an excited state, their breathing was getting rougher, both of them inserted strength into their hands.

"I, Iyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?"

Shidou's high-pitched scream, echoed across the room.

While Tohka was facing opposite at Origami and was caught in a stalemate in the hotel corridor, she unexpectedly raised her eyebrows from hearing a scream like sound coming from somewhere and entering her ears.

"..............nu? Didn't you hear something?"

"That must be an auditory hallucination. You should take care of yourself and head back to your room. Leave Shidou to me."

"Are you saying that again.......!"

Tohka pointed at the plate Origami was holding with her fingers.

"Then, what is that plate!? That is exactly, not needed to look after shidou right!"

When Tohka said that, Origami replied back in a very natural state.

"It is for Shidou's supper. When infected by a cold, you have no choice in any case but to apply energy."

"Fu,Fuun! You revealed your true character! The person that has a cold should be eating porridge!"

Yes. It's true, it feels like Reine and Kotori said that last time.

But Origami was not that much surprised, and replied back uninterested.

"When getting a cold, giving something good for digestion. Such a thing is normal."

"What........? Then why would you——"

"This will, be made into a paste state by me and will be poured directly into Shidou's mouth on the spot. There is no problem."

"Wha,what was that.......?"

Tohka tilted her head. She could not find Origami holding any other utensil looking material; she wondered how Origami was going to make it into paste. And by directly what does it............

While Tohka immersed herself in these thoughts, Origami started moving forward silently. She immediately opened her eyes wide, and grabbed Origami's shoulders in panic.

"Wa,wait! I'm the one who's going to look after shidou!"

"Let go of me. Shidou is waiting for me."

"Don't joke with me, there is no way that's——"

And, while Origami and Tohka quarrelled in the middle of the hallway, three shadows approached them quickly from behind and crowded around both of their surroundings while lowering their postures.

"Wha,what is it......?"

*Twitch* Tohka shook her shoulders, and looked at the female students that were spreading around her surroundings. They were faces she remembered.

It was the Ai Mai Mii trio who were in the same room as Tohka.

"Hey~ Hey~ both of you. Looks like both of you are working hard today too~"

"But in the hallway like this, it will cause trouble for other people."

"If it is okay, how about entrusting that match to us?"

Ai Mai Mii assumed a posture as if they were runners aiming for a theft, said that in order while moving left and right little by little.

"Nu.......?"

"..........."

Tohka and Origami, surrounded by the three of them looked at each others' eyes in curiosity.

Ellen was clinging onto the wall of the hotel corridor, as if she was peeking. After confirming her target Yatogami Tohka entering the room, she used her finger and pressed the Incam.

"——This is Adeptus 1. The target has been confirmed entering the room."

"Understood. Should we dispatch the <Bandersnatch>?"

"I request at least three units outside the room just in case. However, it looks like master sergeant Tobiichi Origami is also in the room. Just to be sure, please be cautious about the activation radius of the Territory."

"Understood. <Bandersnatch> unit 1 to 3, activate."

Obeying Ellen's orders, the Operator made the instructions.

And, when Ellen was about to give out the next set of instructions,

"——HeBuu!?"

She suddenly received something flying from the room towards her face, and toppled over on the spot.

"Uh——what was that."

She raised her body while pressing her nose and her body stiffened in an instant.

"Don't tell me, I was noticed........?"

Although it was not that much damage, that single hit was unmistakably targeted right at Ellen.

——This should not be possible.?Ellen shook her head at the thoughts in her mind. The <Bandersnatch> had not yet taken any action that stood out, and it was not like Ellen had done anything yet. No, however, if it is the Spirits perceptive abilities then........those kinds of thoughts were filling Ellen's mind for an instant.

Whatever it may be, it does not change the fact that it was a critical situation. Ellen tried to evacuate from that place and——

"Ah, Cameraman-san spotted~"

From the carefree voice echoing from the room, her body was glared at.

"Oh, it's true it's true. You are Ellen-san right?"

"Don't let her escape, secure heerrrrrrrrrrrr!"

While shouting things like that, when Ellen was deep in thought those three girls came approaching towards her from the room, they started circling her as if they were surrounding her.

"Wha........"

——I got surrounded!?Ellen grinded her teeth.

She remembered those girls. They were the students lodging in the same room with the target.

Ellen detested her own carelessness. Those girls were most probably robbed of their free-will from the Spirit. They were most likely in a controlled state. There was no other explanation for this strange behavior.

During the time she was thinking about those kinds of thoughts, both of Ellen's legs and hands were restrained by Ai Mai Mii, and she was carried into the room.

"Kuh——what are you......!?"

"Oi~ the cameraman said she also wants to participate too!"

The moment Ai said those words, coming from the deep part of the room [Ooh!] Tohka's voice echoed.

"I understand. I will bury all of you together!"

"Nice courage!"

She shouted and Tohka and Origami who were staring in the deep part of the room, made a big swing, they seem to have thrown something.

"Like I will let you! Cameraman barrier!"

And, at that moment, Ai who was lifting Ellen's leg quickly let her hands go and shrank her body behind Ellen as if she was hiding. At the same time, at Ellen's face, a solid cloth like object made a direct hit consecutively.

"Kahaa.......!"

She released her breath as if coughing blood and Ellen collapsed to the ground.

"E,Elleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnn!!"

"Are you okay? Your wounds are light you know!"

"Get a hold of yourself, you have your family waiting in your hometown right!?"

They said such things, the real culprits that used Ellen as a shield were purposely showing themselves wiping tears away as if they were acting.

Inside Ellen's confused consciousness, she confirmed the true identity of the object that made a direct hit onto her face.

"........pillow?"

Together with Ellen's mumbling——the war, had started again.

After finishing the staff meeting, the homeroom teacher of 2nd year group 4 Okamine Tamae was stopping by the teacher, Murasame Reine's room, which was located right beside her own room.

From what she knew, it looked like a student from her class, Itsuka Shidou suddenly fell ill and they had him rest.

It would be best not to wake him up if he was sleeping, but..........just in case, she should at least check up on him and confirm the situation as a homeroom teacher. *knock**knock* Tamae knocked on the door conservatively.

"Itsuka-kun? I heard you've gotten a fever, are you okay?"

And while saying that, she slowly opened the door.

When she did, at that moment.

"Sto,Stooooooooooooppppppppppppp!"

While raising such a miserable shout, the said Itsuka Shidou jumped out from the room.

——For some reason, he was naked.

"————"

"Heh........?"

Shidou saw Tamae's face and made a shocked expression.

In an instant——

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!?"

Shidou's and Tamae's scream, echoed throughout the hotel.
