Summary:

Min invites Xander to come with her to a cafe after school that day. Little did Xander know that the student wanted to talk to him about something serious.
———
A week after the incident with Alicia's devil robots, Xander is more cautious of his surroundings ever since. He knew that Alicia could take action no matter what time it is, so until then, he'll have to stay on high alert.

However, someone else at Hope's Peak knows about the mastermind behind the devil robots, and on one morning, she decided to go to Xander and...

"Xander, can you come with me after school today?" Min asked, looking down at Xander, who was seated on his seat in the classroom, eating a piece of bread. The rebel looked up to the student and nodded. "Why'f thaf?" He asked back, his mouth still full of the bread he just bit into.

"....Don't talk while you're eating." Min reminded, and Xander nodded again, before he swallowed the piece of bread as a whole. "...So, why's that?" The red head asked again. "I want to talk about something with you, but I'd rather it'd just be the two of us." The student finally answered.

Eventually, Xander agreed to that. He still wonders what she wants to talk to him about.

The school day finally ended, and Xander and Min walked to a nearby cafe. Xander remembered this cafe as 'Cozy & Warm Cafe', where he and some other Seiten members first met Setsuna.

The two took a seat and ordered whatever they needed there. After the waiter left them, that's when Min started the real conversation. "So...the thing that I want to talk to you about is the incident from last week."

Xander turned his head back to Min, since previously he was looking out to the window. What Min said had caught his attention....and interest.

"Huh? You mean when those weird floating robots with those devil horns were exploding random parts of the town? Yeah, what about it?" Xander asked. Min nodded to his question. "I saw how those robots worked, and I immediately knew just who made them." That sentence made Xander froze. His eyes widened slightly, while his mouth opened a little.

"H-huh...? Really?" He asked, but he does know the answer to that question of 'who was it, then?'. "Yes. A girl older than us named Alicia. With those things, she's going to literally destroy the world." Min replied, a serious look on her face.

Xander felt even more shocked by this information, and now, a new question settles on his head.

Is Min really-?

"W-wait....So that means-"

"Yeah, I'm a time-leaper, just like you and Ms. Rumi."

That whole sentence blew Xander's mind. Yume never mentioned to him about Min being a time-leaper like him in his dreams every single night. Setsuna didn't even mention all of the other time-leapers she saw in that dream.

'...Was Ms. Yume really trying to surprise me by not telling me about this...?!' He thought in frustration, but he managed to calm his mind, and eventually return back to normal. He eyed Min, who looked at him back straight in the eyes.

"....Damn. Me too, then." That was the only thing Xander could say before the same waiter from earlier came back with their drinks.

The two spend the rest of their day together talking about whatever achievements they've made as time-leapers. However, before they part-ways in the dormitory, Xander offered one thing to Min.
