The primary function of a forehead protector isn't actually to protect the forehead!
Its main use is to distinguish the ninjaβs allegiance on the battlefield!
After all, even within the same village, many ninjas may not know each other personally. And during the chaos of battle, who has time to closely inspect...

Even Ryuji was taken aback by Megumi's sudden and straightforward declaration.
Is she being serious right now?
The most surprising part was how Megumi's calm expression never wavered, not once showing any form of embarrassment or hesitation. She remained as composed as ever, making it difficult to gauge her true...

They all knew that Megumi rarely joked.
She would never tease them about such things.
Therefore, the story Kato Megumi told was probably true, and Ryuji Hoshino in front of them was indeed a capable person.
They couldn't help but feel a sense of respect toward him.
Even though Kasumigaoka Utaha us...

Ryuji was in a good mood, but compared to him, Tobe Sho was not.
Earlier this morning, he had basked in so much praise. Now, he was overwhelmed with scorn. Many people despised him, including his supposed friend, Aoyama Hayato, who hadn't offered him any real support.
The most direct among them was Miura Yumiko,...

"Are you embarrassed?" Ryuji Hoshino asked with a hint of curiosity, observing Megumi closely.
Though unsure why Ryuji had asked that question, Kato Megumi instinctively nodded. "Well, after all, this is my first time asking a boy for his contact information, so I'm a little shy."
"You don't look shy at all."
