Unlimited Fafnir:Brynhildr Valkyries Chapter 2

Chapter 2 - Shinomiya Miyako

Part 1

"Say, Miyako-san. We will be roommates starting from today. I look forward to our time together."

Located in the girls dormitories, this room was furnished with a bunk bed and study desks. I led Shinomiya Miyako-san to the room I had been living in alone and bowed to her.

Three Ds had arrived in Midgard. To think that one of them was Haruka-san's younger sister. As a result, she was assigned to Brynhildr Class. At the same time, she also became my roommate but...

"...Is something wrong?"

Just as I looked up, I inexplicably found Miyako-san looking at me, hesitating to speak as though she had something stuck in her back teeth.

The window was clattering.

Although the typhoon had passed over Midgard, strong wind was still blowing in the dark environment outside the window.

"Hmm... Listen here, Mitsuki."

She put down her backpack on the ground and scratched her head as though having difficulty in articulating some kind of dilemma.

"Oh... Could it be that you do not wish to live with me? If you would like a single room, I can ask Haruka-san right away—"

The system of roommates was not because there were no enough rooms. Instead, it was intended to help fill the void in the hearts of Ds who had been separated from their families

But of course, there were also people who preferred to alone. In those cases, single rooms would be granted so long as they made an application, but perhaps Miyako-san had probably missed her chance to bring it up.

While I was thinking that, Miyako-san frantically waved her hands at me.

"No, that's not it. I'm very happy to have you as my roommate, Mitsuki! What I wanted to point out was, umm, your way of speaking..."

"Way of speaking?"

What did that mean? I tilted my head in puzzlement. Then Miyako-san stared straight into my eyes and said:

"Hmm—Well, Mitsuki, you have seniority over me and we'll be roommates from now on... Can you stop using polite language? You don't need to add '-san' to my name."

"Eh, but—"

The unexpected request placed me at a loss how to react.

"Please. I think it'll be more friendly that way."

Miyako pleaded with fervent eyes. Overwhelmed by her vigor, I nodded.

"...Since you went out of your way to ask, Miyako-san."

"Thank you, Mitsuki! But don't use Miyako-san, call me Miyako."

Thanking me excitedly, she corrected me.

"O-Okay, my apologies—Oh no, sorry... Miyako."

"Great, that's exactly it! Very good!"

"...I have been using polite language the whole time ever since coming to Midgard. Looks like I will need some time to adjust."

I sighed in front of the delighted Miyako.

Still, that did not imply that I disliked this. While my heart was entangled in feelings of embarrassment, I had a feeling that every day from now on was going to be very eventful.

And this feeling of mine then came true.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Mitsuki-san."

"...Good evening!"

Lisa-san and Firill-san opened the unlocked door and entered the room.

"What are you two doing here?"

I asked them.

"Although our offerings are quite modest, we would like to hold a welcoming party for her."

Lisa-san scratched her cheek a little shyly.

"I brought... plenty of snacks."

Firill-san scattered an armful of snacks on the bed.

"Wow! Thank you both!"

Miyako happily thanked them.

"Haruka-san will apparently arrive later, so let us get started first."

"Sweet things are Onee-chan's favorite, so we'd better eat first while we can."

Miyako's response to Lisa-san revealed an unexpected side to Haruka-san.

"Fufu... I brought many things to play in addition to snacks. No one's getting any sleep tonight."

With an eerie smile, Firill-san took out a pack of cards from her pocket.

It looked like it was going to be a long and fun-filled night.

I smiled naturally while eating sweet cookies.

Every day was filled with joy.

The only thing missing was—Nii-san.
