"But, am I supposed to listen to Uncle J and stay indoors until I recover?" Yuri pouted. "...Ugh... I really want to go out for a walk."

As they were talking, Yuri saw Tina and the other person walking towards her through the window. Her eyes lit up with joy, and she quickly turned around and opened the door to go out.

As I walked through the hall and arrived at the front door, the doorbell rang.

Yuri flung open the door and, as if she already knew who was outside, opened her arms and gave them a warm hug.

"Ugh..."

Tina awkwardly pushed Yuri away and looked at Yuri, asking, "Yuri, are you feeling better?"

"Yes, everything's fine now, I'm great!"

Upon seeing the people who came to visit her, Yuri smiled like a cheerful magpie and nodded in response.

Even so, Yuri's little face was still a little pale.

At least Yuri looked energetic, which put Tina at ease.

"Hey, where's Seol-yu?"

Yuri asked with a slightly somber expression. Compared to Tina being the first to come to see her, she definitely hoped it would be Seulyu.

“Se-yu, she…”

Tina saw a hint of sadness in Yuri's eyes, and with a slight smile, she whispered, "It's because you're so worried about Yuri that Seulgi is so tired."

"Huh... Ah?!!" Yuri was stunned.

"For the sake of Xiaomi and Huo, I went to great lengths to find the training officer and have been dealing with the aftermath in the Accelerated World... Later, when I learned that Yuri was in trouble, I immediately went offline to check on Yuri and stayed with her until it was time to go back in the evening. Seul was so tired that she fell asleep on the side of the bed."

"I managed to wake Seul-yu up, and then took her back to her place on the way... Seul-yu is probably still resting now."

"Ah, my injuries aren't serious... There's no need... to stay up so late."

"Because Seulgi said that as the captain of the Black Sheep team, she almost let Xiao Mi be bullied to the point of despair by those bad guys, how could she tolerate anything happening to Yuri..."

"Sigh, the captain is as always... always worrying about these unnecessary things."

Yuri finally smiled with relief.

"Ugh... Gum... Guuu..."

A cute, slightly audible sound, as if it were being held back in her mouth, caught Yuri's attention. It was a blonde loli standing behind the girl Tina, her cheeks puffed out like a fish, her eyes constantly glancing at the girl.

Yuri then remembered that Tina had come with her, and this little girl was named Tina Sprant, who claimed to be the girl's fiancé (or fiancé).

"...Um, Tina-chan is cute today too! Um, would you two please come in and have a seat?"

Yuri gave an awkward smile and quickly praised the owl, trying to make up for her earlier ignoring him.

Tina turned her delicate face away and pouted, saying, "Well, it's okay if Yuri pretends she hasn't been looking at me... If you're coming as a guest, then let's skip it today."

Then, Tina put on an excited expression and grabbed the arm of the girl in front of her, urging, "Hey, Tina, now that Yuri has been seen, can we go? ... It's been so long, so long since I've gone for a walk and shopping with Tina. We must shop to our hearts' content today."

Yuri exclaimed, "Huh? Are you guys going out to play?"

“Yeah.” Tina glanced warily at Yuri, who suddenly became excited. “…Hey, what are you planning to do? Let me make this clear, I’m not taking you.”

Yuri stepped forward, bent down, and brought her smiling face close to the blonde loli's eyes. "Don't be so stingy, take me with you~ If I disturb you, I'll act on my own after we go out. For now, please be my two guardians, pretending to protect the patient and taking me out for some fresh air, okay?"

Yuri remained a patient.

Compared to a year ago, Tina's domineering personality had toned down considerably. She glanced at the girl tentatively, and seeing her nod, she reluctantly looked away, whispering, "Okay..."

"Thank you, Tina-chan."

Yuri stretched out her arms, as if to give her a facial cleanser.

But remembering her relationship with Tina, her embrace suddenly turned into reaching out to ruffle Tina's soft blonde hair.

Don't let Yuri's seemingly naive and innocent appearance fool you; her emotional intelligence is above average!

“Gum…” Tina shook her head, signaling her to let go, and the latter did not hesitate and naturally let go.

"I'm so envious of Tina's hair... How can her hair be so soft? Hey, what shampoo does Tina usually use...?"

"Ah...no, no."

The perfectly timed gestures of intimacy unexpectedly made Tina feel very comfortable, and a slight blush rose to her cheeks.

...For some inexplicable reason, my feelings for Yuri suddenly increased significantly.

Could it be a character-specific passive skill called "Innocent and Sweet, Social Skills Max"?!

Even such a large villa felt like a cage to Yuri.

Going out to breathe fresh air, enjoy picturesque scenery, occasionally do chivalrous deeds, and meet all sorts of different people—this is what Yuri longs for.

But where exactly can one encounter "destiny"?

Yuri didn't know, nor did she intend to dwell on it, just like Mistin, who never cared about or even fully understood this kind of emotion, also met and got to know "Calamity" by accident.

……

It was only morning, but the main street of Shibuya Ward was already bustling with activity, with a constant flow of traffic and the sounds of car horns and shouts.

On the sidewalk, the three walked one after the other. Yuri was like a bird breaking free from its cage, carefree and happy, her beautiful eyes gazing at the beautiful world around her.

"Um... thank you for coming with me, otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to persuade that guy J."

Yuri, who was walking in front, turned around, crossed her arms behind her back, and said to the two of them as she walked backwards, "Well then, as agreed before, I'll go sightseeing by myself, so I won't be a third wheel... Have a great time!"

Yuri turned around and took a step to leave, but both her hands were grabbed at the same time, forcing her to stop.

Looking back, she was surprised to find that it was Tina and Dina who were holding her hands at the same time. It seemed that the two of them had secretly reached an agreement on the way.

"Why……"

“Because Yuri is a patient, she needs someone to protect her.” The two voices said almost simultaneously.

Tina added, "Last time, when Happy took me out, we got involved in the Ren Chirel incident. Even if we learn from that lesson... Tina and I will protect Yuri well."

Suddenly, Yuri pursed her lips, her eyes darting around as she looked at the two gentler and more approachable girls, and asked, "...Although I really want to be with you, but...but I'd be bothering you. Besides, I don't want to be a third wheel."

“It’s okay with Yuri,” Tina said. “I’ll try not to show off our love…” As she spoke, she glanced at Tina, “Besides, this machine doesn’t know how to show off its love at all…”

Tina raised her hand and threatened expressionlessly, "I'll hit you."

"Then please hit me with your mouth."

Tina gave a soft "humph," turned her face away, and ignored her.

"Well, I'll follow my heart and accept your kind offer. Thank you both in advance, and please continue to guide me for the rest of the day!"

Yuri smiled at the two of them and gave a slight bow.

She remembered something and said regretfully, "If Seul-ok were here too, she could temporarily act as my partner, which would be even better... Sigh, I really want Seul-ok to rest more."

Tina and the girl exchanged a glance, their lips curving slightly upwards. They stepped forward simultaneously, each pulling Yuri along on either side, and spoke at the same time.

"Alright, let's go!"

However, Yuri suddenly froze, her stiff body remaining unmoved even as the two pulled her along.

"What's wrong?" Tina asked.

"..."

Yuri sensed that a gaze was watching her from the shadows.

When she tried to look in that direction to find the owner of that gaze, the gaze had already disappeared, but the fleeting aura surging in the crowd gave her a sense of familiarity.

"Hmm..." Yuri snapped out of her reverie and smiled nonchalantly. "Sorry, I got distracted. Let's go!"

After leaving, Yuri remained absent-minded, constantly struggling with the gaze that was watching her from the shadows, sometimes close, sometimes distant.

On several occasions, when Tina or Tina asked her about clothes and snacks, she hesitated and seemed slow to react.

Yuri found it strange, since she hadn't done anything that anyone would covet in this world.

Even if it's about sexual assault...

Yuri stole a glance at the two pretty and charming loli girls, then took out her phone to look at herself and her prominent breasts... Hmm, not bad at all!

Although big-breasted mature women and small-breasted lolis are completely different species, does that mean the guy staring at him is a fan of mature women?

"Hey, have you guys noticed that someone... is following us...?"

"No." Tina had only closed her eyes for a second when her spiritual senses, which covered the entire city, opened them again without detecting any malice towards them.

"Yuri has been so suspicious. Does she feel like someone is following her?"

"Hmm..." Yuri said uncertainly.

Then, she shook her head violently. "Since we're out to relax, let's not let this kind of thing ruin our mood. So, let's—"

Before the voice had even faded, an even more arrogant and shrill voice rang out from behind them.

"Hey little girl, you bumped into someone... Hey, why are you in such a hurry to run? Didn't your teacher teach you to kneel down and apologize now?!"

At a three-way intersection formed by the sidewalk and the alley behind, in the open air at the alley entrance and on the street, a group of delinquent teenagers surrounded a girl and threatened her aggressively.

The delinquents seemed to be notorious in the area, and passersby turned a blind eye to the girl's misdeeds and avoided her at all costs.

Tina's face hardened, and a terrifying aura that could dim the light and shadow was about to emanate from her hand. Her voice was menacing: "...You've truly sullied Tina's eyes. I'll eliminate you completely..."

Before Tina could stop her, the owl had already silently dissipated its power, because Yuri had already charged ahead.

Even a wounded Sealer possesses the strength of an army, but with the intention of avoiding casualties, Yuri did not draw her gun or sword. Instead, she grabbed a broom from the roadside and moved nimbly through the crowd, instantly standing in front of the girl.

The delinquents only felt a blur before their eyes, and suddenly another person appeared in their encirclement, leaving them momentarily astonished.

The habitual offenders' composure quickly calmed them down, and upon closer inspection, they found themselves unable to control themselves, because compared to the bespectacled girl, this busty mature woman was far more arousing.

"Oh, what's wrong? Miss, are you perhaps considering taking the blame for this guy's crimes? I'll be merciful and tell you, fine, she can leave, you stay—"

Yuri, who had just been feeling fortunate to have "made it in time," couldn't help but sigh. Why couldn't these guys understand their own predicament?

If Tina were to step in and resolve the situation, given their reckless and suicidal gazes, the owl would probably gouge out their eyes and feed them to the fish.

"Hmph, committing crimes in broad daylight, does the world truly have no law? Today I will act on behalf of Heaven!"

Yuri exuded an aura of righteous indignation, but the weapon in her hand was rather comical, making her appear utterly unimpressive when paired with such serious words.
