"...There's no point in being upset. The matter has come to this, I can only accept the invitation."
"Hey, are you really going to go?"
"Lambda, there's nothing we can do about it. I can't imagine what would happen if Istar angered the person who said this."
Although I am worried that even one incident involving Mikado will cause harm to tens of thousands of people, but judging from the attitudes of Xion and Akatsuki, Tamamo Mae's power should be even higher.
It is not surprising that the lives of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people are threatened.
It would be much cheaper if you could temporarily prevent this from happening by accepting the invitation honestly.
"Speaking of which, why does he suddenly want to invite us?"
Judging from Xion's explanation, at least when Tamamo Mae and Xion agreed, Xion could just go to see her alone.
Why did the scope suddenly expand to include Xiaojing and the others? She didn't understand at all.
"...If the captain is the only one, she should have also sensed the magic power of the 'Light Wing Orb'."
It is indeed possible to be interested in the "Light Wing Orb" and its contractor Akito, which possesses enough magic power to resist Hydra.
However, even in this case, just call Xion and Ajid. There is no need to invite so many people.
"Isn't it just because you have a good relationship with Xion? Their relationship should be treated gently, right? Are they worried that you are in the middle of the human army?"
From the perspective of Tamamo Mae, who is relatively gentle towards Xion, Xion cannot rest assured about Xion's situation in the human army, which regards him as a danger.
Anna speculated that it was because of this that she wanted to meet the people in the human army who had a crush on Theon.
"Yes, yes, but I always feel something is wrong..."
"It's not suitable for me either... Just because she has a good relationship with Xion, is that woman so interested in human affairs?"
"Human style..."
"We ghosts are generally not interested in people, so isn't that fox the same?"
If someone says, "If this were not the case, innocent people would not be executed for pleasure," then you have to accept it.
"Also, when I think about it, I'm a little concerned about the selection criteria for members."
"Really? I feel like I'm not someone you normally have a good relationship with."
From Ajid's point of view, and just like Anna said, only the names of people who have a good relationship with Theon are listed.
But Theon shook his head clearly.
"Because, if we take a good relationship with me as a criterion, the other people in Class 13 and the aunt in the cafeteria are all good friends."
“Isn’t it because there were too many people that we were squeezed out?”
"No, she was once the favored concubine of the ruler, and now she is still a big monster hiding in the dark. As long as she is willing, she should be able to attract forty or fifty women."
Even including all the members of the Thirteen Skills Class and the cafeteria aunts who are not here, they still cannot meet this standard.
The consensus between Xion and Zhu Yue is that if there are enough people, they should be able to recruit everyone.
"Also, I think it's a bit awkward to include my lightsaber brother."
"...Indeed, if you ask me casually whether I am a 'good friend', I am on a very delicate line."
There is no clear hostility. Compared with other people in the human army, they can be said to be very friendly, but the hostility towards others is real.
It is difficult to simply define him as "a person who has a good relationship with Xion", and leaving aside Xion, there is a high possibility that he will express hostility towards someone other than Tamamo Mae.
The thought of specially inviting people who have a high probability of expressing hostility towards me feels a little awkward.
"That's what you say, but is the investigation so detailed? If you don't carefully figure out his attitude towards you, how can you possibly know it?"
"Yeah, so I'm probably not investigating to find hearts or memories."
Sean seemed to be convinced of Mist's accusation. He put his chin on his hand and muttered to himself.
"If he has seen through my mind, he should have included all the members of the Thirteenth Skill Team and the aunt; if he has found out the hostility of the people on the ship towards me, he should have excluded Brother Lightsaber from the waiting list. Serena and others should be on the list."
"If you didn't read anyone's mind and searched around Theon... then, did you see what happened before with your clairvoyance?"
"If you saw all the situations I had in the ship including the past, all the members of the Thirteenth Technical Team and the aunt would also come in."
The two of them were sorting out the information in their minds while listening to the conversation between Xion and Zhu Yue.
First of all, it can be considered that the spirit of the "Aster" and the people on board was not interpreted.
Second, there is no model for looking backwards at Theon's life in the Mist.
After denying the possibility of these two methods, what method is left?
Since the other party can use magic, it is possible to use some means that humans cannot imagine. However, it is difficult to investigate a simple issue like friendship through complicated methods.
Today, when the "observation of objects" that humans first thought of and the means of "reading the spirit of objects" that humans cannot achieve have been denied, the remaining possibilities are:
"...Is there any line to investigate people who know the inside story?"
The thought that blurted out involuntarily caused Xion and Zhu Yue to stop their discussion.
"that's it!!"
The two people looked at each other and shouted, approaching Xiaojing like this.
"Yes, that's it! In this case, our members can also accept it!"
"Are you simply targeting someone who you think has a good relationship with Theon!"
"If that's the case, it would be reasonable to exclude the restaurant aunts who we don't meet outside of the restaurant, and the other people in the Thirteenth Technical Class who don't often live together. If someone among them is considered a "good friend", it may also include the lightsaber. elder brother."
Because it is based on the subjectivity of someone different from the person involved, and there is a deviation from the hearts of Sean himself and the actual selected members.
This was the sense of disobedience that Theon felt.
"In other words, someone's mind was read in the spaceship, and the members were selected based on that person's knowledge?"
"...Huh? But I think that instead of trying to figure out other people's thoughts, it would be faster to figure out my own thoughts."
As Mister points out, choosing a random person to read his spirit would be in vain if that person doesn't know much about Theon's friendships.
If a method of interpreting spirits could be adopted, it would be faster to directly interpret Xion's spirit.
If you don't do this and choose the invitees based on someone's objective knowledge, that is to say——
"...There may be that woman's aura mixed in on this ship."
Zhu Yue, who came to this conclusion, narrowed her eyes happily.
"That kind? Are you saying there are spies on this ship?"
Mist exclaimed in disbelief. Although the speaker, Zhu Yue, looked happy, she was not joking.
Theon, who was standing nearby, showed no sign of denying his words.
"I don't think it's impossible, of course I'm not."
Theon is not a spy spying on the human armies from within.
Ajid was even convinced that his claims were true.
However, just because Theon isn't a spy doesn't mean there aren't spies within the human military.
"Is it a human being who has transformed into a human being, or is it someone who is destined to be a human being? No matter what, it's not difficult to get in as long as you have the will."
Although they now have a certain degree of knowledge about aliens, it is most abnormal that the human army can sense Xion's existence.
The reason why this was possible was only by chance due to the attack by the invaders. Without that incident, Xion would not have been discovered by the human army. Instead, as an ordinary human being, he would be in the Thirteenth Skill Class every day. Let's work.
"So, there really is such a spy in 'Miststan'?"
"Although it can only be said that there is temporary evidence of the situation, it is indeed not impossible."
The discussion so far is ultimately just speculation on the selection criteria for all invited members, and there is no conclusive evidence.
It would be far-fetched to conclude that there are spies on board the ship based on this piece of evidence alone.
"...However, it's not a bad thing to take this opportunity to test it out."
Regarding the existence of spies, there is no material that can confirm whether they exist.
