The news spread like wildfire.
Kojima Kanako was following the events in her boudoir, lying on her bed with her legs curled up, wearing only a light pink nightgown with a deep V cut that revealed nothing beneath, the black crisscross straps resting on her shoulders, as she held a smart screen in her hands.
Kanako watched a video circulating on Aizu City's local forum while conversing with a gentle female voice.
"Are your friends in battle?" the other party asked.
"Yes," Kanako replied, "They fought fiercely and won!"
"What kind of people are they?"
"Good people," was all Kanako could say.
