Daydream Inari God

 

　I can't find any other cause, such as carelessness.

　I knew things were going to happen because I had a foresight dream.

　I even had a good look at the culprit's face and confirmed who it was.

　And yet, I took my eyes off the culprit who committed the crucial crime .......

The "Since the culprit's face is known, it must be okay" is a shallow idea that has no basis in reality.......I gave Konoha-chan, who has no cell phone or other means of communication, very general instructions to "let me know directly when he leaves the school".

　Even if they don't like me, despite the fact that I had the advantage of astral projection, a method I used during the day to avoid detection......

　Stay alert and keep an eye on it for a while ...... If I hadn't neglected to do just that, we wouldn't be in this mess......

 

"Haa, haa, haa ............ Damn it! I wish I could punch myself an hour agoooo!"

 

　We were running as fast as we could back down the main street, toward the North Ward.

　I was so weak even in the 1,500-meter run, but I didn't have time to whine at this moment.

　My breath is getting heavier, my heart is screaming, and most importantly, my legs are losing more and more of their feel so that I don't even know if I'm kicking the ground .......

　But even so ...... Even if my heart burst or I vomited blood, I could not choose to stop.

　This is ...... my fault, it's a blunder that I brought on myself.

 

　Amane, who is running as well, has a desperate look on her face, but I'm sure she has some extra energy left over compared to me because she's more athletic than I am ...... But still, it is only a matter of time.

　Even the best athletes cannot keep running at full speed.

 

"Why, at a time like this, not a single taxi is passing by!!"

 

　I almost nodded at Amane's complaint.

　Now I would even be prepared to pay the penalty for a bicycle accident, but at a time like this, there is no way I could stop anywhere!

　There was only a single featureless road that went on and on.

　However, just as my eyes began to grow fuzzy from lack of oxygen, Konoha-chan raised her voice.

 

[Yumeji-san! Look at that!!]

"Ha, ha, hi...... T-This is bad!!"

 

　I don't know how long I had been running as fast as I could, but I could still see two figures on the "opposite sidewalk" about 400 to 500 meters from here.

　I couldn't see their faces, I didn't know who they were ...... but I just knew that they seemed to be "arguing about something."

 

"T-They are, could they be!?"

 

　Amane also seemed to see a figure and squinted to get a better look.

　Is it not too late!? Or so I thought...... One of them, who seemed to be arguing with the other, is about to walk away from the scene, and the other one is trying to do something behind her back!?

　I was watching the contents of that "something" very closely.

　Even though I said I was watching......

 

"STOOOOOOOOP!!"

"Kagu-chan run awaaaaaaay!!"

 

　We all raised our voices together.

　But ...... Our screams were drowned in the air, unable to reach the helpless reality of distance......

 

 

　The body of Kagura Momoe, Amane's best friend, was flying ...... through the air, jumping over the guardrail in front of a large truck that came running ...... from the other side.

 

 

"AAAAAAAAAAH!!"

 

　The scene in front of my eyes becomes pure white.

　I often hear such stories, but I really could only describe it as such.

　Even though I knew it......

　Even though I could have saved her .......

　I cursed the situation that my carelessness had caused ...... and despaired.

 

"Because of me.......because I let my guard down, it's my, it's my......."

 

 

 

 

　But then I realized that my senses were strange ......

　I was running a few kilometers and running out of oxygen because of my lack of exercise, I was at the end of my strength and energy, I couldn't even think at all, and I should have just been lamenting my incompetence ......

　For some reason, I was calmly thinking about something else.

　The scene in front of my eyes becomes pure white ... or so I thought, but it's wrong.

　The color is gone from everything around me and the world is in black and white ......

　And ...... all the scenery seemed to slow down as if in slow motion.

 

　......Normally, I would have been surprised by such a situation, but ......I was calmly thinking and acting only "the maximum we can do right now" in such a slow, monochrome world.

　It is as if there are two consciousnesses: the panicked one and the calm one ......

 

　I stood directly in front of Amane as if we were dancing, my right and left hands clasped together and held them out toward the crime scene, and I placed Konoha-chan on top of her.

 

"W-What !?"

 

　Amane, who had been distracted by her best friend's crisis, was surprised by my actions, but I didn't care, I said in a confident voice.

 

"I borrow your magic, "Amane"! Fly, Inari God!!"

" ...... Eh?"

 

　I didn't even wait for a reply, just slapped Amane on the back with the "Dream Book", not even knowing what I was talking about.

　At that moment, a huge amount of "something" flowed into the little fox on our arms from Amane and ...... was released at high speed as a ray of light with a "bang" sound.

 

[OOOOOOOOOH!? T-This is!?]

 

　And the released fox child is transformed into a beautiful and divine adult fox form in the high-speed light, accompanied by the given "enormous magical power that is unthinkable for a normal human being" .......

　And .............

 

KIKIKIKIKIKIIIIIIII!!

 

"Eh.......Ah?"

[Chi-chaaaan!!]

 

　The driver who noticed it panicked and braked suddenly, but it was certain that Kagura-san, who was thrown out, would be bounced, and the evasion was hopeless...... everyone thought so, even though I thought so, too.

　The crashing sounds ...... was never heard.

 

　Instead, what I heard is ...... the voice of Kagura-san, who was sitting on the opposite sidewalk for some reason ...... not understanding at all what had happened to her and why she had been saved even though she had been thrown onto the roadway.

 

"... Eh? A-Are? What am I, doing??"

"Ka, Kagu-chan!!"

"Eh? Ama-cchi ??"

 

　Then there is the image of Amane hugging Kagura with a tearful face and the golden fox who gently holds her in its mouth and brought her down in front of us ......

 

"Thank, goodness............ just in time......"

 

　At the moment I thought that, I suddenly felt as if all bodily functions had stopped.

　From which soon even consciousness will go away ......

　As far as I'm concerned, it's the cost of running at full speed without any exercise......huh......

　I couldn't think of anything anymore and let go of my consciousness.

 

　Without knowing when it appeared, a new entry in the "Dream Book" appeared......
