"So, you're the one Sig calls Raiden Mei?"

By the barbecue grill, three girls, Kiana, Rozaliya, and Liliya, surrounded a black-haired girl who sat on a chair, looking very nervous.

Raiden Mei had arrived during the dinner and was accompanied by her father, Raiden Ryoma, who had come to this unfamiliar place. Now, she found herself facing the three intimidating girls.

Mei was well-mannered, but her father's stern expression throughout the journey, combined with her unfamiliar surroundings and lack of experience playing with peers, had left her feeling quite anxious.

"Listen up! I'm Kiana, one of the three legendary leaders of the orphanage!"

Kiana stood in front of Mei and struck a flamboyant pose, reminiscent of something you'd see in a tokusatsu show. She had a proud expression on her face.

"I'm Rozaliya, the second of the three leaders!"

Rozaliya was to the right, doing the same exaggerated pose with a beaming and enthusiastic smile.

"And I'm the third, Liliya."

Liliya was on the left, mirroring the pose as well. However, her expression lacked the enthusiasm, making her look more like she'd been dragged into it rather than volunteering.

Mei shrank a bit when she saw their peculiar greeting, and then nervously replied, "I'm–I'm Raiden Mei. Nice to meet you—"

"Listen up! Since you're here now, you need to understand that we're the big shots around here! You must follow our lead in everything. And any tasty food or fun things must be offered to us first. That's the only way to survive in this tough place. Got it?"

Kiana had her hands on her hips, proudly smiling, and yet, there was an air of goofiness about her.

Her two companions followed suit.

Rozaliya: "Got it?"

Liliya: "Got it?"

Then Liliya suddenly turned her head and asked Kiana, "Wait, isn't Sigurd the leader of the orphanage?"

"So what!? Sig listens to me! If you round it up, the three of us are the leaders!"

Kiana responded with a logic that was strangely convincing.

Then Rozaliya raised her hand to speak, "Wait a minute! Kiana, you're not from the orphanage, are you? Don't you have a dad?"

"Oh, come on! You know my dad, he's in bed and can't get up. Besides, aren't we good friends? Why are you still hung up on this small detail?"

"Yeah! Kiana is right, we're forever good friends!"

"Right, forever good friends, hahaha!!"

Rozaliya and Kiana then linked arms and included Liliya as well, emitting two energetic and silly laughter sounds, along with one reluctant giggling sound.

Mei looked at this scene, and her gaze couldn't help but waver.

'Are they perhaps intellectually challenged individuals? How sad, they are so young too...'
