Meet the Miko?
She's standing right in front of you...
Lumine couldn't help but think this to herself — she'd never expected the Raiden Shogun to suddenly want to take them to meet the Miko.
But by now, she was honestly growing more and more puzzled by this Raiden Shogun before her.
I'm right here in front of you...
Makoto!
Thinking this silently to herself, Miko decided to agree to Makoto's request.
After all, her puppet was at the shrine right now, so there shouldn't be any problem.
And more importantly, she had a feeling it would be quite thrilling.
Then, under Makoto's gaze, Miko nodded firmly.
Oh, right...
I wonder whether Mei and Lumine would be willing to come along too...
Suddenly struck by this question, Miko began diligently writing out words to ask the two of them, using the notebook Wendy had just given her.
"? Are you writing something? Let me see." Suddenly noticing that the fox in front of her had started scribbling in some book, Makoto curiously leaned in — she hadn't even noticed the thing before.
Hm?
Before she could see what was written, Makoto found that the other had already snapped the book shut and pressed it against her chest, refusing to let her look.
"I can't look? Then I won't look."
Though she had no idea why, since the other clearly didn't want to show her, Makoto wasn't about to raise any objections.
Oh no...
I can't write Mei's and Lumine's names anymore after this.
But then how should I refer to them in the notebook from now on?
Just call them both little foxes?
Oh, right...
Mei can be the big fox!
Lumine can be the little fox!
And as for me...
I'm...
What would be good?
As she mulled it over, Miko started agonizing about this problem — she really had no idea what name to give herself.
Never mind...
Let me just head to the shrine with Makoto first.
Deciding not to overthink it, Miko wrote the character for "go" in the notebook and showed it to Makoto.
"Go? That should be the character, right? Then let's go." After straining to make it out, Makoto finally recognized it as the character for "go," and then took the lead, setting off toward the shrine.
Can't speak, but can write...
How strange this all is...
Why didn't Ei ever tell me about this...
The Miko must know about it, right?
Walking up ahead, Makoto couldn't help thinking this.
And just as Makoto had already started off toward the shrine, behind her Miko was still holding that notebook, looking at Acheron and Lumine.
Go...
Not going?
This character looks so ugly...
But what I write now looks about the same anyway...
Communicating is so hard right now...
Looking at the character in Miko's notebook, Lumine nodded.
But Miko wasn't looking at her at that moment, so she had to tap Miko on the shoulder and nod once more.
Does Mei not want to go?
Seeing that Mei kept giving no response, Miko grew a little curious.
But just then, Mei showed her the notebook too.
Go?
Mei's handwriting looks so ugly now too...
After silently thinking this, Miko and the two of them caught up to Makoto, who had already walked some distance ahead and had even stopped to wait for them.
They finally caught up.
I thought they weren't coming...
But they're communicating by writing too...
Why is this getting stranger and stranger.
Or could it be that they're trying hard to communicate the way humans do?
If that's the case, then I'll have to get the Miko to teach them properly...
Watching the little foxes draw closer and closer, Makoto had already decided what to do next.
