Before I left the guild I gave Lena my debit card numbers to have my reward transferred over there.

When I got my ID card back, they also gave me access to get my debit card as well.

That was really convenient for people who had lost their personal belongings such as these kinds of personal cards.

The amount on my debit card was the same as before I left Sakuru.

.

——————————

Deposit: 1600$

.

Now that I also received my reward for killing the white rabbits.

Deposit: 3640$

They also said that they were going to pay me more since I brought the white rabbits undamaged.

The total reward was 2040$

That means a single rabbit was 40$.

Including the money for saving Ichika, the total money will be 10640$.

This is the amount of money I would have after Ichika's father gives me the reward.

Right now I'm on my way to buy some clothes for myself since the only clothes I have are the ones Haruto gave to me.

Hina's pov

——————————

.

In front of us was a monster called "Black bear".

This kind of monster could be considered a threat to us.

But I have confidence in Haruto's and everyone's abilities!

I'm sure if we work something out, we can beat that monster!

No!

We will beat that monster!

While the monster was coming closer, Haruto looked at me and called out my name,

[ Hina! ] ( Haruto )

[ I know! ] ( Hina )

I nodded as I said that.

I already knew what that signal meant.

I've known Haruto for some time and I know everything about him.

Even though we would sometimes argue about him going out with other girls, I still love him! He still pays more attention to me!

Before the monster could get any closer I started attacking the monster with fireballs without moving from my position.

I kind of feel bad since the only thing I can do right now is supporting them from a safe place.

I tried aiming my attacks at the monster's eyes to distract it.

That way, Haruto and Kanae could attack the monster.

At that moment Haruto and Kanae rushed towards the monster. As they were getting closer to it they got into both sides of the bear. Haruto was into its right side and Kanae into its left one.

They both jumped and high kicked the bear's neck from both sides.

I know you can defeat that thing Haruto!

**Thump**

Seeing that their kicks didn't do anything they used the body of the monster as an object to push themselves away from it.

It didn't work?

How strong can that thing be?!

[ Its skin is so tough!

Kanae! ] (Haruto)

After taking some distance he made eye contact with Kanae.

They both nodded with each other.

I wish I was in Kanae's place right now.

Fighting beside Haruto...

The monster now was even more pissed by the fact it didn't get to catch Haruto and Kanae.

It seemed Kanae and Haruto had some kind of plan.

Haruto ran at full speed towards that monster.

The black bear got up into both its feet and stood up.

His body now looked even bigger than before.

After dodging one of its paws which was aimed towards him, Haruto suddenly stopped. Now the bear had its focus on Haruto. But at that moment Kanae came from Haruto's behinds and jumped high enough to reach the monster's head.

She swung her leg, and a curved blade made out of air was created up from that.

She used her special skill called "Air Slash"

Or that's what she called her skill.

The attack managed to reach the monster but it couldn't manage to cut through all the way into that bear's skin.

But judging from the monster's reaction, it seems it was even more pissed off than before. Even if the attack didn't do any damage, it must have felt the pain of that attack.

[it's not working! What do we do now? ] ( Kanae )

She asked Haruto as they were both getting some distance from the monster.

Haruto had a worried look on his face.

Haruto...

The attacks aren't working!

What are we going to do now?

[ I also don't think I have much energy left... ]( Hina )

I have been attacking the monster from his sides with my skill to distract it.

Even though it was useless I couldn't stay still without doing anything!

I could feel cold sweat running down my body.

My vision was getting blurry from using so much energy.

Even my breathing was getting heavier.

But I still won't stop attacking until we defeat that thing!

I know that "my" Haruto can do it!

[ Everyone! ] ( Ren )

Ren who was near me made a transparent barrier big enough that would fit a few people around it.

[ For now, we should head back and regroup! ] ( Haruto )

[ Alright! ] ( Kanae)

They both ran towards the barrier where me and everyone else were.

On the barrier was that Hatsuko as well.

Now that I look at him, how can he be so calm in this kind of situation?

Is he that scared that he can't move at all?

All he was doing is, watching us from a safe zone!

Haruto thought he was a hunter but I can clearly see that he isn't!

He is so scared that he can't even move!

That nuisance!

While Haruto is fighting, he was watching from here.

How can he even think to not do anything?!

The monster regained its concentration and noticed Haruto and Kanae who were running away from that monster.

The black bear started chasing them. The monster's big and heavy steps could be heard from here.

*Thump* *Thump* *Thump*

It is clear that the monster is really angry that they are trying to run away after trying to attack it.

Haruto! Kanae! Hurry up!!!

But they managed to get inside the barrier before the monster could catch any of them.

I was so glad when they arrived safely here!

[ We have to escape from here! ] ( Ren )

The bear finally reached the barrier and started using its paws to crush it. The barrier started cracking.

[ Hina can you use your Fireballs again? ] ( Haruto )

He asked me.

Sweat was running down his face.

[ haa haa... S-sorry I don't think I can... ] ( Hina)

I could barely control my breath from using this much energy.

The monster continued to hit the barrier with its paws. As the more that monster was hitting it, the more cracks appeared on the barrier.

[ Guys, we need to get out of here soon! ] ( Ren )

I could see that Ren was exhausted from trying to maintain the barrier from breaking.

Even Haruto and Kanae were trying to catch their breath.

I could see that Haruto was trying to think of a plan, Kanae was next to him waiting for him, Ren was also trying not to let the barrier get destroyed meanwhile I was trying to catch my breath as well.

My chest was hurting so bad because of it.

I must have pushed myself too hard...

The barrier shattered into pieces.

[ Everyone Run!! ] ( Haruto )

He said that as he caught Ren before she could fall on the group from using all of her power to hold the barrier.

He princess carried her as he started running. I was a bit jealous because of that, but right now it wasn't the time to be jealous about it.

Kanae was also beside him.

I started running as well but suddenly my vision got blurry.

I don't think I can run...

[ Guys w-wai- KYA ] ( Hina)

I fell down from tripping on something.

I couldn't get up!

My body couldn't handle it anymore!

It hurts!

It's so painful!

Guys don't leave me.

[ Huh? HINA! ] ( Haruto)

Haruto?!

I couldn't see that well but I think I heard Haruto's voice.

[ HINAAA! I'm going back, Kanae! ] ( Haruto)

Haruto...

He is coming back to me?

[ No I don't want you to die! ] ( Kanae)

[ S-she w-will die! I have to go! ] ( Haruto)

What is Kanae talking about?

Why doesn't she want to save me?

Aren't we friends?

The ground was shaking from the bear's steps.

I was barely conscious.

[ RROOOOAAAAAR ]

More intense pain ran through my body!

What's going on?

Haruto... is he coming for me?

He must be coming for me!

I did everything for him! We love each other!

I even allowed him to have sex with my friends, Ren, and Kanae.

We all love each other!

[ H-Hina... ] ( Haruto )

Haruto?

His voice sounded like he was in pain.

Is he okay?

I hope he is...

I can't see...

I struggled to move but at that moment my hand caught something.

What is this?

Is this Haruto?

Is he finally here for me?

[ ROOOOOAAAAAAA- *BOOM*

[ Shut up! ] ( Hatsuko)

Did Haruto save me?

I don't think I have any more energy to stay awake...

* * * *

[ HAAh!!!!? ] ( Hina )

I suddenly woke and noticed a familiar celling.

This is... my room?

Was that all a dream?

Is everyone safe?

I struggled to get up from the bed. My body was hurting all over the place.

No one was near me.

I'm scared! Where is everyone?

Are they okay?!

Didn't they also make it here?!

Why is no one here?!

I felt a bit lonely...

Haruto where are you?!

I went out of the room.

No one was there, even the servants were nowhere in my sight.

I checked some of the rooms but I still couldn't find anyone.

When I was about to enter Harutos room I heard some weird noises.

[ AHH HARUTOOOO!!! AH MORE, MORE!! ] ( Kanae )

[ Haruto do me more!! ] ( Ren )

[ HNGHH! I'm cumming!!! ] ( Haruto )

No way?!

I can't believe this!!

I know that I allowed him to have sex with my friends but why are they doing it now?

Do they not care about me at all?

Even when I needed him beside me the most, he was nowhere near it!

He wasn't there when I woke up!

Haruto Why?

I forcefully opened the door.

Haruto was happily fucking Kanae while fingering Ren. He was smiling while Kanae and Ren had lewd looks on their faces.

The room was smelling really bad.

[ Hina? You're finally awak-- ] ( Haruto ]

[ --HOW COULD YOU!! ] ( Hina )

I didn't let him finish.

I could feel tears running down my face.
