Heheheh... Yeah.

[wawko]

An actual ninja? Aren't they supposed to be secretive?

[burnbladeyburn]

We'll beat their ass so quick, they wouldn't know what hit them. Is that secretive enough for ya?

[wawko]

That would be one way to keep it a secret!

—Wait, you aren't going to beat me up now, are you?

[burnbladeyburn]

What? No! I'll never hit a girl!

[wawko]

Sorry, but I just had to make sure! I wasn't sure if you were planning on keeping being a ninja a secret or not.

[burnbladeyburn]

It's not a secret anyway.

[wawko]

So you're a public ninja?

[burnbladeyburn]

.......... Sure! Let's go with that!

[wawko]

What does a pubic ninja do? I mean, doesn't a ninja have to be stealthy and remain hidden in the shadows?

[burnbladeyburn]

I'm there to protect my princess. But if she wants someone to help her with the preschool kids or buy yakisoba bread I can do that too.

[wawko]

A princess? So you're her bodyguard?

[burnbladeyburn]

Yeah.

[wawko]

A princess and her knight—ninja... It sounds romantic.

[burnbladeyburn]

Romantic?

[wawko]

—Like something out of a fairy tale! Not necessarily romantic like there's romance! Although if there is romance, that's really great, but you don't have to confirm or deny because I'm making an idiot of myself now...

[burnbladeyburn]

We're just a ninja and a princess. It can't be anything more than that! Haha! Hahahaha! [ you broke him. ]

[wawko]

R-right! Okay! I'm sorry for bringing it up! Are you going to be okay?

[burnbladeyburn]

[ nodding ]

[wawko]

That's good. I really am sorry about this. Let's talk about something else.

Um, you said your name was Recca, right?

[burnbladeyburn]

That's me!

[wawko]

There's someone here with the same name as you—well, same codename.

[burnbladeyburn]

Is it another clone? Does he look like me?

[wawko]

No. He's... Well, he's really pretty! He's in Delta, and he told me to call him Mikagami.

[burnbladeyburn]

Blue hair? Looks like a girl? Bad sense of humor?
