Why did Hikigaya save the anime girls in Sword Story?

"Yes, according to his usual personality, he would have attacked in anger long ago."

"Listen, I saw that guy glaring before he closed his eyes. His so-called calmness was all an act. He must be raging inside."

"That being said, Sigurd's eyes easily reveal his emotions..."

"Don't you think it's very suspicious that you're trying so hard to pretend to be calm and ask about our itinerary?"

"It's indeed suspicious! They're definitely planning something."

"so--"

Hachiman took a deep breath and got to the point:

"How about you stay with Sigurd's team and keep an eye on him? He's bound to make some moves soon. If you pass that information on to Leafa, she'll be very grateful to you."

"really..."

"It's hard to win Leafa's favor by following us, but executing this plan will definitely earn her gratitude. Isn't it a good deal?"

"Yes! I think it's great!"

"That's settled then."

The two of them smiled knowingly and shook hands vigorously.

"We will get intelligence and respond accordingly, and you will earn Leafa's favor."

"Win-win!"

"Okay, let's go back."

"Yes!"

After returning, Reagan excitedly announced:

"Leafa-chan~ I've decided to stay on Sigurd's team as a spy!"

"Eh? Spy?"

"Now explain"

Hachiman explains the plan to Kirito and Leafa (the part about the favorability is omitted).

“It’s really unusual for it to suddenly go quiet.”

"Sigurd's personality is too abnormal."

"Leafa-chan, wait for my active performance!"

"Ah, yeah."

Seeing the look in Reagan's eyes that was distracting Woliang, Hachiman whispered to Leafa:

"It's a good opportunity to motivate him by smiling and cheering him on."

"Understood"

Leafa smiled brightly.

"It's all thanks to you, Reagan. Come on!"

"Okay! Leave it to me!"

Reagan rushed away like an arrow.

"Well done. Let's take off from the Tower of Wind and discuss the details on the way."

"understand!"

As the three spread their wings and flew away from the Tower of Wind, the setting sun cast their long shadows across the sea of clouds. Hachiman caught a glimpse of Kirito's profile, staring into the distance. His expression quietly overlapped with that of a certain black-clad swordsman.

"Wooo ...

“Ohh ...

Although Hachiman and Kirito were shouting, they were still happily gliding in the air.

"You two are quite skilled."

'It's like a roller coaster'

“This refreshing feeling is incredible.”

"Haha, thank goodness neither of you are afraid of heights. Ah, it's almost time to prepare for landing."

"okay"

"clear"

The three of them gradually slowed down and landed smoothly.

"The landing is also very beautiful. Ordinary people would be very flustered."

"Well, there's no problem flying or landing."

"Yeah, it looks like there's no problem even if I keep flying."

"You've adapted so quickly, ah! Come to think of it, you two have been through quite a bit before, so it's not surprising you're saying this."

"Ah, well... sort of. It's just a flashback."

"Yeah, yeah."

"I see"

Since they hadn't decided whether to confess the truth to Leafa, the two decided to keep it a secret for the time being.

Then the three of them sat in a circle and began to discuss the previous topic.

"Hey Leafa, what would you do if Leafa were to attack Yukino and the others in this situation?"

"Hmm... The Wind Elves alone can't do it. I don't think anyone would follow."

"Is it because of what happened when you received the title?"

“Well, it’s a very famous story between the wind elves and the cat demons.

If these two races heard that they were going to attack Yukino, they would probably refuse.

"The most likely possibility is that they are secretly passing information to the cat demon tribe?"

"If they want to attack, there's probably no other way. I don't want to think too badly of Sigurd, though..."

After all, we had many happy memories through group activities, Leafa said with a hint of pain.

"But, after all, this is the main battlefield."

"Does that mean we are the target?"

"That's right. First find out where we're going to meet up with Yukino and the others, and then kill us before they meet up. That's a very logical progression."

“It does feel more realistic this way.”

"Does Leafa think so too?"

"Hmm. If I were the other party, maybe there would be someone in the Wind Elves who would be willing to participate?

For example, those people I defeated in the martial arts tournament, as long as their faces were covered, you wouldn’t know who did it.”

"Based on the name, does it mean that you're not as scary as Yukino?"

"Well, almost."

"It's possible that both sides could attack at the same time. The cat demon will be in charge of Yukino's side, and the wind spirit will be in charge of our side. Of course, it's also possible that both sides could attack at the same time."

“That’s certainly a possibility.”

“Then let’s consider this premise.”

"it is good"

Hachiman said as he closed his eyes and gathered his thoughts.

Leafa looked at him with interest.

Kirito seemed relaxed as he was used to it.

"Hey, Kirito-kun, is it always the case that Hachiman-kun serves as the military advisor?"

"I guess so. Ah, it's not because I'm too lazy to think or anything, okay?

It's just that Hachiman is too reliable, so there's no chance for me to use my brain."

"That's it"

"By the way, Hachiman is also very strong in combat. Of course, I won't admit defeat either."

"Well, I've fully understood your strength through the last battle.

When two people team up like this, the attacker actually feels sorry for them."

"We still have Leafa here. Once we reunite with Yukino and the others, we'll be completely invincible, right?"

"Yeah, when we don't know the enemy's number, this is the only way."

Hachiman suddenly opened his eyes and said:

"Oh, it's already sorted? That's quick."

“After all, this isn’t a complicated situation.”

"So how do we do it?"

"Deliberately leaking information to Sigurd to manipulate the situation, taking advantage of the opportunity to reunite with Yukino and the others, and then completely annihilate the enemy."

“Simple and clear, good.”

"Well, Nalifa, where is the best place to meet up in this corridor?"

"That should still be Luguru Town."

"How long does it take to get to Ruguru Town from the other side of the corridor?"

"Yukino's team will be here in about two hours."

"Is that so? Then can Leafa contact Yukino to adjust the rotation schedule?

I also want to log out and call directly to explain the situation"

"This is indeed faster. Wait a moment."

"Please, I'll wait over there."

"clear"

After Hachiman logged out, Leafa quickly sent a message to Yukino.

After greeting her teammates, Yukino immediately logged out and called Hachiman.
