Reimu: ...Hm?
There's a weird sound coming from the Gymnasium...
...What could it be?
Target: 9 Home runs: 8 Remaining: 9 balls
Rumia: Ohh, what a great hit-!
Remilia: It is going far. Could it be a home run?
Sanae: Oh yeah! Now I've cleared normal!
Cirno: Hnnngg... I can't believe my freezing demonic balls would be defeated...!
Reimu: ...What are you doing?
Sanae: Ah, Reimu-san.
When you're feeling troubled, rigorous exercise is the best...
...So that's why we're doing a Home Run Derby!
Reimu: Okay, I don't get it.
Sanae: If you'd like, why don't you join us and work up a good sweat too, Reimu-san?
Rumia: You should stake your youth on these white balls too, Reimu-!
Remilia: My Scarlet Shoot is on fire now!
Cirno: Try to take my freezing demonic balls-!
Reimu: ...What's up with this enthusiasm?
Well, I was bored so that's fine.
(Decided to play with Sanae Kochiya and the others.)
Rumia: Sure kill "Night Bird"!
Remilia: T-That is...!
Sanae: You know it, Remilia!?
Remilia: A forbidden pitch that elegantly assaults her opponent while activating her darkness ability... To think she had mastered it!
Night Bird Rumia's ability robs the sight of her opponent and herself. It is a secret move that drives a dead ball into the batter's face. The opponent dies. Source.. ZUN Taimei Shobo
Cirno: I won't let you. "Perfect Freeze"!
Remilia: T-That is...!
Sanae: You know it, Remilia!?
Remilia: A batting technique that seals the opponent's pitch by instantly freezing the surrounding air...To think she had mastered it!
Perfect Freeze Cirno's ability freezes the surrounding air and stops the ball's movement as well as stopping her opponent's heart. The opponent dies. Source.. ZUN Taimei Shobo
Reimu: ...What is this?
Rumia: ...She cleared normal-
Cirno: Haha! I'm the strongest!
It was a good match, Rumia-chan!
Rumia: That's- right-!
Remilia: Friendship made from sports... I don't dislike it!
Sanae: Wow, baseball really is great!
Reimu: ...I think what you guys are doing isn't baseball.
Sanae: After exercising, we should refresh ourselves in the bath!
And then, a cold milk coffee! It's perfect!
Reimu: I can't get into that kind of mood during a murder game.
Remilia: Yes, chilled blood after a bath is the best!
Reimu: That'll just ruin the nice mood after the bath.
Sakuya: I thought you would say that, so I have prepared some chilled drinks.
Reimu: Where did you come from?
Rumia: Cirno-chan, let's have an endurance competition at the sauna-!
Reimu: Don't, she'll melt.
Cirno: Okay, I accept your challenge!
Reimu: And you shouldn't accept.
Oh no, I can't keep up with the straight-guy act with these people...
Sanae: ......
Reimu: ...Sanae?
Sanae: Ah, Reimu-san.
Do you need something?
Reimu: No... I don't really need anything.
But you were spacing out, so I was wondering what's the matter.
Sanae: It's nothing, really...
Oh, if you're free, would you like to have a cold drink with me?
Reimu: ...I'll do that.
Sanae: Then, even though it's still daytime, let's go to the Bar!
Reimu: Oh, but...
Doesn't the Bar open at 6?
Sanae: Don't worry, I have the key to the Bar that Marisa-san took!
Reimu: ...I see.
Reimu: Phew...
Free beer is the best.
Sanae: ...You look like you're enjoying it.
Reimu: There's no better-tasting alcohol than free alcohol.
Sanae: Is that how it is?
I can't drink a lot, so I don't really know.
...So, Reimu-san.
Did you want to talk to me about something?
Reimu: Hmm... That wasn't my intention but
...I just felt like seeing how you were doing.
Sanae: Was... I acting weird?
Reimu: It looked like you were sort of unnaturally energetic.
...I was a little worried.
Sanae: Huh...
Reimu: It's just a feeling, but...
aren't you the type of person who tries to forcefully be cheerful when you're worried about something?
Sanae: ...Do I seem that way?
Reimu: Yeah.
Sanae: That's troubling...
...Reimu-san, your instincts are too good.
Reimu: It's rare to see you away from Marisa, so I thought you two might be having a fight...
How about it?
Sanae: It's not that we're having a fight.
Although... we do have fights all the time.
This time, it's a little complicated...
...If it was a regular fight, it wouldn't last long since we both get bored easily.
Reimu: What do you mean?
Sanae: I'm sure you know this, since you've known her for a long time...
Marisa-san is the type of person who tries to do everything she can, even in a situation she can't change, right?
But, what she can do in this situation is...
Reimu: ...Murder, huh.
Sanae: To save Aya-san and Yuugi-san, becoming the Black and winning is the only way...
That's why she doesn't renounce murder as a way to combat this situation.
That's what Marisa-san is thinking now.
Reimu: ...It does seem like what she would think.
Although I don't think Marisa can actually murder somebody.
Sanae: I... don't want Marisa-san to commit murder.
...I don't want anybody else to commit murder either.
From the point of view of Marisa-san, who's trying to do something about this situation...
my thinking... is naive.
Reimu: ...I see.
It's not a fight, but your ways of thinking don't match anymore.
Sanae: ...I know there's no point in maintaining the status quo without a way to change things.
I can't say anything back if someone says I'm running away from reality.
...But, it's hard to approve of murder.
Reimu: ......
Sanae: I am also a person whose role is to gather faith.
I believe people who gather faith shouldn't betray their followers' feelings.
That's why I won't approve of murder, even if there's no other choice.
...That is one thing I will absolutely not budge on.
Even if that means I will have a different opinion than my good friend...
I can't throw away my duty as somebody who gathers faith.
Reimu: Sanae...
Sanae: ......Leaving that aside, Reimu-san
You're drinking a lot for someone who's supposed to be listening to other people's problems...
Reimu: ...Really?
Sanae: Well, that's just like Reimu-san...
...Reimu-san.
Thank you for listening to me.
I feel a little better now.
Reimu: ...I see.
That's good.
Sanae: Now...
I'll go make up with Marisa-san.
Reimu: Yep, go ahead.
I'll stay and drink a little more.
Sanae: ...It's still the middle of the day, you know?
You shouldn't drink too much-
Reimu: ......
(...Sanae Kochiya.)
(After spending time with her, I feel like I got to know her better.)
(Her usual actions make her seem carefree...)
(but she's actually very serious, and thinks deeply about things.)
(Putting it simply, she probably has a high sense of responsibility.)
(...So much so that it feels a little dangerous at times.)
[Your friendship with Sanae Kochiya went up a little bit.]
