"Let's go, Hayato!　Today I will surpass you!
Even if we had a snowball fight, I wouldn't lose to you!

They're doing it.
But it's so powerful that it's hard to believe it's a snowball fight.

When Hayato throws a snowball that misses, snow flurries up in the shape of a fan.
However, even if it truly hits you directly, you are still throwing it back with a stone-faced smile.
I'm not going to mix it up?
Haha. It's impossible.
It doesn't matter if it's cold or not, you'll die!
I don't think "chudon" is onomatopoeia for a snowball fight.

So, what am I doing here?

With Itsuki!　Wendy's!　Easy to make a camouflage!
First of all, secure a place for the base person to enter with the Invisible Prison (Invisible Jail).
Gather snow around it and press it down with force to harden it, and then have Wendy sprinkle water over it.

Be careful not to spread too much water on it.
Lastly, you should release the invisible prison by hardening it with more snow, except for the floor part.

Yes, it's done.
It's cold, so it's a rush job.
However, it's solidified, so there's no need to worry about it collapsing unless it's something bad.
I know it would be better to leave the invisible prison as it is, but that would be unstylish.

And instead of mixing in with the snowball fight, which only the martial artists can't enter, Mika, Chris and I decided to cook together.

Wendy and Misela said they would help, but Misela said it was the first time she had seen snow, so she invited them to come and play.

Come and play. Is this pork this big enough for you?
I finished cutting the root crops. Brother, what should we do next?
Good. Let's put it in the pot, shall we?

What I am making is pork miso soup.
After all, it is pork miso soup on a cold day.
And this time I have one more thing to make.

Good. As for the fillets and vegetables, it's fine.
I'm looking forward to Yose-nabe too.

Yes. I'm making a pot.
I'm sure the guys playing outside will come home hungry.
A warm pot under a pillow on a cold day.
This is how adults enjoy themselves in the snow, fulfilling their childhood dreams.

'But then again, True let me go pretty easily.

When I told him that he couldn't go out with a stone, he quickly gave up, saying he had no choice then, and said he'd make a snow sculpture of a girl with me later, and started to play one-on-one with Hayato.
Huh?　Don't you want me?　You could have just stayed home and relaxed.　So I thought.

'Giggle!'

.........
No, you shouldn't say "gikku" with your mouth.
It's not something that's so obvious that it makes you suspicious.

I can't help but feel that there's another plan.
Hee-hee hee-hee. Nanookotode-deskane?

.....
Oh, yeah.
That. Mika is a girl who can't lie.
It's cute that she's not whistling, but it's a bit funny because she's imitating a foreign character who speaks only one language.

I stare at Mika's face, and she glances at me and turns away vigorously.
She doesn't even seem to notice that Chris is looking at Mika with a very disappointed look on his face.

'Mika-chan?'
Hi, hi!
What do you think they're hiding?
What is your name?

I'm on one word again.
It's already gotten to the point where it's beyond bad and interesting.
It's not that I want to know that much about what you're hiding but it makes me want to tease Mika.

''Mika-san why don't you just tell me already?''
Chris Shhhhhhh!　I don't want to get caught.
''.........It's already obvious........ I mean, I'm too bad at lying........
'Ummm....am I that bad at it....I was trying to do my best, but...'

You worked hard with that........
Mika must be as honest as she truly is.
For that reason, Misa is probably better at belly tricks than you are.
To be honest, it's going to be a challenge to get the secrets out of Misa-chan.
It does not necessarily mean that the information obtained is the truth.
They are sisters who have a good balance between the two.

So, what are you hiding?
''Huh... well, this is true this time... but the cause is your sister...''
True this time... well, he was definitely more persistent than usual.
''It's also Hayato-sama's fault, for one thing.......''
"Hayato too?　What do you mean?


.... uh.
I'm sure you will.
So, Makoto is going to make some erotic demands.
Moreover, it's delicious for Misa, no matter which way it goes.
If Makoto wins, he'll be rewarded with a true reward.
Even if he loses, she will enjoy watching him fight with Hayato.
In fact, Misa is actually watching the two of them fight.

''But since Makoto tells Hayato-sama as it is, Hayato-sama prodded her to say she couldn't go along with him.

That's probably true.
Even I wouldn't accept a request to compete with Misa because she would do anything you asked of her.

But persistently. I was so persistent to the point where I hugged her and cried out and begged her to the point where I was lying down on the street, and then Hayato blurted out, "If you're here too, Itsuki-san....

.... the root is Misa. Next is Makoto.
The reason I got involved in this is because of Hayato and.......
I've got nothing to do with it.

But........... But the fact that she wanted to have fun with her brother Itsuki is true. Last year, when she heard that Hayato had a Christmas party with her brother Itsuki, she was really disappointed. He said over and over again that he wanted to meet her earlier.
....
We've been through a lot in this world. There were times when there were so many things going on that it was hard to trust anyone but the three of us. But she was so happy to meet such a trustworthy group of people. Of course........I think I did too, and so did my sister.

.........
You can't say anything when you say things like that, can you?
I'm sure he was just telling me the straight and true.
After all, Mika is a bad liar, you know.

''Huh........''
"Oh, big sigh. Hmm. Did you give up for good again?
'You're quick to guess. Well, you're right, but...

What can I say, they've missed me....
I'd be happy if this was a cute girl, but it's a big dog that isn't even cute like a puppy.

'If you decide to do that........you're serious?
'What?　Are you serious?
'Yeah. I'd like you two to help me out but I'm not going to be able to play with you, okay?
Yes. I don't mind.
Me too!　I've heard your brother Itsuki's seriousness is great, so I want to see it!

I wonder who in the world heard it from........maybe Hayato or Aina.
I know you've been in contact with Aina on a fairly regular basis.

I'm back!
I'm home. It's cold outside, but it's warm in here.

Oh, just in time to see Wendy and Mizzella back as well.
I asked them both to help me, and they both agreed in two words.

I guess we'll get on with it then.
We don't have much time to do this until they come back, but let's do what we can, shall we?
