4-111: A Villain Buying Time
Myuhi did not bring the Mask straight into the venue after the battle, instead she landed a short distance away from the venue inside the barrier.
The mask didn’t say anything either, perhaps understanding the situation, or perhaps, he simply lacked the energy to do so.
When the Mask had entered the battlefield, Myuhi moved some of the people responsible for the defense of the venue to the backstage.
This was to ensure they could respond should the “Snake” attack or act recklessly.
Of course, that turned out to be needless worry in the end. The final encore song was still ongoing, so Myuhi couldn’t bring him in with her right now, so she decided to just let him rest here.
She took out something like a picnic blanket from her equipment, spread it on a suitable empty spot on the ground, and laid the Mask down.
Her terminal, which was equipped for tasks such as outdoor infiltration and solo missions, had all the necessary camping gear.
It was curious if the Mask knew about that or not, but he showed no reaction other than a simple thanks.
“…Thanks.”
