Anime, infinite dimension starting from Mahou no Yakumo

Miyuki stepped in to help, saying, "Although Mahiro-nii doesn't care, Lina is an inviolable goddess in the hearts of many students. We can't just ruin Lina's reputation."

"Miyuki!"

Hearing this, Lina's face immediately turned red. "If we're talking about goddesses, aren't you the same?"

"Hehe, I'm not as popular as Lina."

Miyuki covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

Seeing the two joking around, Shinji smiled slightly and explained:

"Actually, I met my classmate Lina on the way. I noticed she wasn't feeling well, so I accompanied her to the infirmary and got some medicine, right?"

After he finished speaking, he smiled and looked at Lina, seeking her confirmation.

Lina forced a smile and said, "Yeah, just like Yotsuba said."

Although he said that, he was actually complaining in his heart.

She was being toyed with by this inhuman bastard every day, but in the end, she had to cover for him.

This is absolutely outrageous and inhumane!

"Oh, what a coincidence! But speaking of which, it seems like you two have been getting quite close lately."

Erica keenly noticed this.

Or rather, it wasn't just her; others also discovered this.

Recently, Mahiro and Lina have indeed gotten a little closer together, and the chances of them traveling together have increased significantly.

Moreover, after revealing Lina's true identity last time, they found that Mahiro seemed to have stopped making any other moves; everything was just a peaceful daily routine, and nothing happened.

However, they didn't really care.

After all, it would be best if nothing happened, and they didn't want to one day run into classmates they had finally become friends with.

However, seeing his flawless statement, Erica clicked her tongue in exasperation, then turned her gaze to Sayaka and teased her:

"Hey Xiangxiang, your boyfriend's getting so close to that pretty first-year girl, aren't you jealous? Be careful Lina doesn't steal him away~"

"Ellie!"

"Chiba-kun!"

Sayaka and Lina spoke at the same time.

Mahiro chimed in immediately, "Erika, you're not right about that. You joke about me all the time, so we're pretty close, aren't we? Do you see Sayaka getting jealous?"

"I'm different."

"What's different? Does Erica not consider herself a beautiful girl? I remember in the first-year beauty rankings, Erica, you were also near the top, second place before, but you dropped to third after Lina arrived..."

"Ah—I know, I know I was wrong! Please be magnanimous and don't say any more!"

Erica interrupted him with a loud, angry shout.

She was puzzled as to why she could never get the slightest advantage over Zhenxun.

"Hehe, fine, don't say it then, why are you shouting so loudly... Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore."

Under Erica's death stare, he promptly shut his mouth.

Then he took Sayaka's hand and whispered, "I will always love Sayaka deeply."

"Yes, me too, Shinsuke." Sayaka nodded, her face immediately flushing with shyness.

"Sigh, in the end I got another mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection)." Erica sighed helplessly, resting her chin on her hand.

"I'm so envious..." Honoka whispered.

"Yes, it is indeed enviable..."

Shen Xue nodded, her gaze subtly revealing a different emotion.

Lina noticed that it seemed that all the girls present had some connection with Yotsuba Mahiro.

What a heartless, philandering bastard....

After that, their table also began their meal.

However, after finishing the meal, Mizuki, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly pushed up her glasses and said:

"By the way... have you heard the rumors circulating at school lately?"

"Ah, Mizuki, you mean that one?"

Erica, who loves gossip and eating melons, knows all the rumors and gossip in the school.

"You mean that place where people supposedly heard some strange noises in the hallway after school, right?"

"!"

"Yeah, you know, it's said that at dusk, a whimpering sound, like crying, comes from an empty classroom. Do you think that means... the school is haunted?"

Mizuki pushed up her glasses, revealing a rare serious expression.

"!!" Lina's delicate body trembled slightly again, and her thighs involuntarily tensed up.

"Lina? Are you alright?" Honoka noticed that something was wrong with Lina; she seemed a little nervous.

"Ah...no, actually...I don't like these kinds of ghost stories, they're a little scary..."

Lina quickly waved her hand and explained.

It's more than just fear.

The sobbing was coming from when she covered her mouth. She never expected that someone would hear her. Didn't that bastard say he could use a soundproof barrier?!

If she gets found out, she'll really be too ashamed to live!

The thirteen apostles have been reduced to something like a super-sized cup...

Thinking of this, Lina subtly glared at Mahiro sitting opposite her.

But as it turned out, that bastard Yotsuba Mahiro remained completely calm and composed.

How could they be so calm?!

"Hey Mizuki, how can you be so sure that's a ghost? Maybe it's just a stray cat making that sound when it's in heat?"

It was Makoto who spoke, but Lina's face also flashed with a momentary blush.

"Hmm...that makes sense, but I've heard that it sounds more like a human sobbing...and that's what it's written in old books."

"Well, animals can imitate human voices, like mynahs and parrots. But if you insist that those are the sounds of ghosts and monsters, why don't you go and see for yourself?"

"Great idea! Let's do it after school today!"

Erica became excited upon hearing Mahiro's suggestion.

When it comes to catching ghosts or something, she's definitely not sleepy!

"Oh, by the way, I'll also invite Miki; he's the best at ancient elven magic."

"I'll help too!" Mizuki encouraged herself.

Others also eagerly joined in.

Even the usually calm and elegant Miyuki plans to participate.

"Are you crazy?!"

Seeing how enthusiastic they were, and that it was Zhenxun who made the suggestion, Lina instinctively shouted it out, only to be immediately embarrassed.

All eyes were on her.

"Lina, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly so agitated?"

"Ah...no...I mean...I don't really like participating in these kinds of activities, they're a bit scary." Lina thought for a long time before coming up with this lame excuse.

"Oh, it's okay. There are so many of us together, what's there to be afraid of? Besides, if it really comes down to it, you can ask Mahiro to protect you~"

Erica spoke, her eyes darting back and forth between the two of them with an ambiguous look.

Mahiro, however, remained quietly smiling throughout.

In the end, Lina had no choice but to board this pirate ship.

The problem is, the main characters in this incident are Angelina and Yotsuba Mahiro. Since they are both in the group, what can they possibly find out?

Naturally, they returned empty-handed.

When evening came, Lina dragged her tired body back to her apartment.

"I am back."

"Welcome back... What happened to you, Lina?"

Wearing an apron, Sylvia came to the entrance to greet Lina. Seeing Lina's listless appearance, she couldn't help but ask.

"Ah... it's okay, Sylvie, I'm just a little tired... By the way, I won't eat dinner, I'm going to take a shower and then go to sleep."

As she spoke, she took off her boots, brushed past her roommate, and staggered toward her room.

Sylvia looked at Lina's tired back and opened her mouth as if to say something.

But I was never able to get the answer out of him.

Not just today, but in the past few days, she noticed that Lina seemed very tired every time she came back, and even when Mia sometimes visited the apartment, she always looked drowsy.

Is the investigation really that difficult?

She wasn't quite sure, but since Captain Lina wouldn't say, there was naturally no way for her to ask.

Moreover, according to Lina, the mission is progressing smoothly, and they have gotten much closer to the target.

The only remaining mystery is that the culprit behind the "Scorching Halloween" is still unknown.

But Lina guessed that it was most likely related to Yotsuba Mahiro, and that the person who released the strategic-level magic might be that boy!

"Forget it, let the captain get a good night's sleep."

Sylvia shook her head, giving up on thinking.

-------------------------------------

late at night.

Lina, who was still fast asleep, was suddenly woken up by her roommate, Sylvia.

"Hielvie, what is it?"

Lina rubbed her sleepy eyes, but she had been a regular soldier for more than three years and had been the captain of STARS for a year and a half. She was already used to being dragged out of bed in case of an emergency.

He then instantly regained consciousness and asked Sylvia for an explanation in a clear voice.

"Major Kanops made an emergency contact."

Sylvia responded in this way, and Lina silently walked to the communicator.

"Class, sorry to keep you waiting. Sorry for communicating only by voice."

I should be the one apologizing for disturbing the Captain's rest.

A deep, steady male voice came through the communication.

"It's alright. What exactly happened?"

Benjamin Canopus is the second seat of STARS. When Lina is not around, he serves as the acting captain.

But since you're contacting her at this time, regardless of the time difference, it must be something very important, right?

The whereabouts of the fugitive from last month have been found.

"What?! Where are they?!"

The “Foalmatian” incident, a first-class STARS case involving Alfred Fomalhot, was not only bad news within STARS, but also greatly alarmed the top brass of the USNA military.

The incident did not end with Lina personally "executing" Lieutenant Fomarhot.

Around the same time, seven mages and several auguries also escaped the USNA army, including members of the STARS.

This was her third mission in Japan: to capture the group of fugitives and carry out their secret execution herself!

[Japan. After landing in Yokohama, they are presumed to be hiding in Tokyo. However, their exact purpose is still unclear.]

"What did you say?!"
