"Kuro Usagi what are you planning to do! It can't be that you really want to become that guy's possession do you?"

After leaving the Thousand Eyes workshop and returning home, Asuka immediately voiced her opinion. 

"......Uu!"

Asuka slammed against the pink table in the middle of Kuro Usagi's room.

Kuro Usagi looked down, ignoring the sharp gaze coming from Asuka.

With a surprisingly fiery spirit, she stood up, walked around the table, and grabbed Kuro Usagi, staring at her with eyes that seethed like molten lava as she stuffed the Invitation Letter that had summoned the four at Kuro Usagi's chest. And as she couldn't hold back those angry emotions that surged though her mind and heart, Asuka began to read out the contents of the Invitation Letter:

"'You shall cast aside your family, friends, possessions, everything in the world of yours. And come forth to our [Little Garden].'—You who have summoned us in this fashion and yet you're now deciding to leave the Community? This sort of behavior can only be counted as abandoning your responsibility!"

"......Kuro Usagi doesn't intend...... to do that......"

"No! You're lying! It's clearly shown on your face! You believe that it won't matter even if you have to sell yourself to help your comrades! But rest assured that we will never allow you to do such a foolish and futile act!"

"Fu...Futile...Why must you describe it with such a term!"

Kuro Usagi couldn't take it anymore and she too replied with a loud cry. Be it from Laius or from Asuka, Kuro Usagi didn't understand why she had to receive such strong criticisms from people around her.

Although she was gasping a little due to her extreme agitation, Kuro Usagi who waited a moment to calm herself continued with a retort:

"Comrades are very important to a Community and there's nothing that can be more important than the comrades who stand by you. Moreover, for Leticia-sama who could even willingly sacrifice her own soul and harm her body to rush over upon hearing trouble brewing in her former Community, don't you think that we should at least take some responsibility to do everything we can to do what is morally right?!"

"But doesn't that mean that you will just be her substitute?! That sort of action makes no sense!"

"Sacrificing for your comrade. How can that make no sense to you?!"

"BANG!!!"

The two girls were interrupted by a loud slamming noise, much bigger than the one created by Asuka.

In a complete sync, they turned towards the third-party in this room, Hajime.

Neither couldn't voice their opinions. It was rare for him of all people to create actions that caused such noise. Sure he did something like that towards Laius, but that didn't make his actions any less shocking.

Hajime sat back down, letting his hands go from the table, thus revealing a white paper with letters on it. The ladies of this room peeked their heads towards the center of the table, reading the contents of their letter.
