18 - Let’s Get To Work! (2) 

“I am Lulurun, who are you?” Lulurun asked.

Reines answered: “She’s the Vice-Captain of the First Order.”

“Vice-Captain of the First Order of Knights, I am Miris Musica, meow, pleasure to meet mew,” Miris said, smiling with accessories that look like cat ears.

There was something that bothered Lulurun more than Miris’s appearance, though.

“You’re Miris Musicameow?” Lulurun asked.

“That’s not right, meow,” Miris said, “it’s Miris, meow.”

She added “meow” at the end of her sentences.

“What? What is this, some sort of character act?” Lulurun asked. “Is this all right?”

“It’s not an act, meow!” Miris yelled.

“If you’re struggling, she can just talk to me,” Rhynes said.

“Roger, meow!” Miris said, saluting at Reines.

Rhynes, in her handsome, gentlemanly way, gently told Miris, “You can order anything.” and urged the rest of her Order to sit down.

After going “meow, meow,” all the time, Lulurun closes her eyes, unable to believe such a weak-looking girl is Vice-Captain. Lulurun stares at Miris like she’s an anomaly.

“What’s wrong, you’re staring at me so hard, meow?” Miris said. “Stop leering at me, meow.”

“Can I?!” Lulurun asked.

“Miris does know she likes other girls, though, meow,” Miris said.

“Ah… I see,” Lulurun said.

“You tease too much, Miris,” Rhynes said.

“Sorry, meow,” Miris said.

“No, the thing is, if she’s the vice-captain, is she as strong as Rhynes?” Lulurun asked.

“Yeah, Miris is strong, maybe even stronger than me in some cases,” Rhynes said.

“Huh!? More than Rhynes?”

“Miris is strong, meow,” Miris said.

Even with the caveat of “in some cases,” it’s not immediately apparent that she could be stronger than Rhynes, isn’t it?

Lulurun, intrigued by the meowing Miris, tries to sit down next to her and strike up a conversation, but Rhynes takes that spot, and Lulurun ends up sitting next to her.

“Why are you getting in my way?” Lulurun asked.

“You’ve got it wrong, there’s nothing up,” Rhynes said.

“You’re so cute, meow!” Miris said.

Now that Rhynes had coolly switched seats without any apparent sense, she whispered to Lulurun:

“Can you train me in magic tonight?”

“OK, I’ll wait for you here, when you’re good to go, just come over,” Lulurun said.

“Understood,” Rhynes said.

Miris approaches them and tries to get involved in their secret agreement.

“Oh mew, oh my, are you two planning to meet secretly at night, just as rumored, meow?” Miris asked.

“Rumor?” Lulurun asked.

“That you’re Rhynes’ lover, the beautiful girl Lulurun,” Miris said.

“Ah, so that’s it, right,” Lulurun said.

And when she tried to say it was a lie, Rhynes covers it up.

“It’s true,” Reines said.

“Huuuh?!” Miris cried.

The suspicion of being lovers is confirmed.

“So we’re going to have a secret meeting, Miris, you understand that?” Rhynes said. “A secret meeting is a secret meeting, so no one must know about this, you must ‘keep this to yourself,’ alright? A secret meeting is only secret when it’s a secret.”

“How mysterious, meow!” Miris cried. “A secret, a secret meeting, I understand, I’ll keep this to myself, meow!”

“No, that’s not it!” Lulurun cried.

“Thank you, Miris, you’re the best,” Rhynes said, patting Miris on the head and showing off her handsome aura.

“So you’re not going to deny it, huh?” Lulurun asked.

“I think it’s a foolish idea to keep piling on lies,” Rhynes said.

“I doubt it,” Lulurun said.

“I won’t be a burden to you, Keisuke,” Rhynes said.

“No, that’s not what I’m… well, okay,” Lulurun said.

With Rhynes’s cunning request accepted, Lulurun feels compelled to admit it’s true, too. What is she going to say to Sir Cain…? Well, it’ll be fine, Lulurun stopped thinking about it in two seconds.

“Hey! Lulurun! Start serving food!!” Balkan yelled.

“Yes, right away!” Lulurun said. “Well then, see you later.”

“Yeah,” Rhynes said.

“See you later, meow,”

“You don’t have to say it too, Miris,” Rhynes said.

“Roger, mew,” Miris said in affirmative.

While being pressured by Balkan, Lulurun will do her best to entertain the First Order! Her busy day continues.
