Following the target shooting, Shiro-san and I came to that place Lillywood-san and I went around together…… the gigantic labyrinth made of flowers. That attraction seemed to be very popular and unlike the target practice, it was mentioned in the guidebook.[We’ve arrived huh.][We have arrived. Well then, Kaito-san.][Yes?][“Please start getting lost”.][……Eh?]Whoa there, Shiro-san suddenly started saying something strange. Well, it’s not like I thought that I’d be able to peacefully go around with Shiro-san…… but asking me to get lost around this place again…… Hmmm, as expected of Shiro-san. Her way of thinking is unlike normal people.[You compliment me.][No, I wasn’t complimenting you.][I see…… Well then, please start getting lost.][Errr, incidentally, can I ask the reason why?][Kaito-san, who challenged this labyrinth in the middle of the Six Kings Festival, got lost in this place quite a bit.][Y- Yes, that did happen.][That’s why I think it would be “unfair” if you don’t get lost while walking around with me.][I se…… Unnn?]That is…… unfair? Oh no, I’m getting confused too. I mean, even if she tells me that, I think it would be difficult for me to get lost in this labyrinth on purpose.If this flower labyrinth was the same one I had experienced before, I would be able to move through it rather quickly and finish it, even if I couldn’t completely remember the whole labyrinth.

[It’s okay if Kaito-san just challenges it like normal. I believe that Kaito-san will be able to get lost.][That’s an unpleasant trust you have there…… No, no, there’s no way I would get lost that many times, you know?][……………….][Gununu……]Even though she should have been expressionless, her eyes looked as if she was sure I would definitely get lost…… D*mn it, watch me closely, okay!? Since you see it like that, I’ll show you how I can clear this labyrinth quickly.Challenging the Flower Labyrinth, filled with determination…… half an hour has passed. Now, in front of me was a wall of flowers, blocking my view…… In short, I’m at a dead end.[……Shiro-san, what do you think?][I think it’s better if you turn on the “7th corner earlier”.][……Yes.]What is this feeling of defeat…… This is strange, looking at the entrance, I saw that this place had the same flower composition as when I came with Lillywood-san, so I thought the directions would be the same……Somehow, even though I was going in what I thought was the correct order from the middle of the labyrinth onwards, I kept on running into dead ends.Even though I should have known the directions by the type of flowers after Lillywood-san taught me about it……[……Shiro-san, there’s something I’d like to ask you.][What is it?][……”Did you switch the type of flower at the forks in the road”?][……Now then, let’s go back.][………………..]You really are the culprit!? Do you really want me to get lost that much!? Follow current on novel-online.com
[Yes.][……You didn’t even hesitate with your response……]Why does she want me to be lost that badly? Since it’s Shiro-san, it’s hard to believe that she’s doing this because she’s being mean. If that’s the case, then she must have some kind of purpose……[It seems like you’re feeling troubled a lot, aren’t you, Kaito-san?][And whose fault did you think it is……?][I dunno?][………………..][However, there’s actually an easy way for Kaito-san to break through this labyrinth.][……Unnn?][I think you should “ask someone reliable for help”.]Ahh, hearing what she said made me understand now. I now understood why Shiro-san was trying to make me get lost…… That means, this person……[I don’t know who that someone is though. How mysterious. I wonder if she’s around here somewhere? Someone who knows the answers to the maze and can be counted on to help……][……………………]What a barefaced appeal, that is. Moreover, it’s matching pomp in terms of the situation. D- Did she really want to be relied on that much?[Yes. Kaito-san doesn’t rely on me very often. That’s why I am very dissatisfied.][Errr…… S- Shiro-san…… Please help me.][I guess it couldn’t be helped. It’s a request from none other than Kaito-san after all. I will show you the way.]This was clearly something she had set up, but I just gave up and asked Shiro-san for help…… Shiro-san replied in the same intonationless voice.

However, her face was…… turned up, though it may only be a few millimeters, and I kind of felt like she had a smug look on her face.[With me as your guide, Kaito-san will never run into a dead end again.][H- Huhh…… Errr, ummm, I’m counting on you.][From now on, when you are in trouble, please don’t hesitate to rely on me. I’ll be happy to help.][…………………]Feeling like she’s quite cheerful, I don’t know if it’s just my imagination or not, but it seemed like she was talking more than usual…… S- She really wanted me to rely on her that much huh……[Yes.]Again, there was no hesitation in her reply.[You don’t consider me at all, Kaito-san.][N- No, it’s not like that is……][You don’t consider me at all, Kaito-san.][……I understand. I’ll rely on Shiro-san more from now on.][You can count on me.]I feel like she’s somehow puffing out her chest. H- Hmmm, I guess I could say that Shiro-san is a caring person. It’s hard to imagine from her appearance, but her personality is surprisingly childlike.How should I say this…… For better or for worse, she is honest about her feelings…… But well, I guess that’s probably Shiro-san’s most attractive charm.At the very least, even as my expression naturally turns into a wry smile, it was clear to me that spending time with Shiro-san wasn’t a bad idea.Dear Mom, Dad——— This world’s God of Creation, even though her expression is hard to read, is honest to her desires and a bit selfish…… but how should I say this————- I think that part of her was very cute.? ? ? : [Eh? Serious-senpai? She received Under King’s Purgatory Spear, and was lying over there. Well~~ How unfortunate~~ We’ve lost someone dear in our hearts.]Serious-senpai : [I’m not dead yet, okay!?]T/N: 11/181
