Hearing Ryosuke's earnest words, one of the 'Blossom Cherry' liaisons sitting in the back row was momentarily taken aback.
Then, the liaison laughed.
"No problem."
The other party gave an affirmative answer.
Next, they elaborated.
"Normally, those who join 'Blossom Cherry' can get one free opportunity to obtain 'Strength,' but you can get it twice!"
"Direct strength, knowledge, or artefacts, you can choose freely."
"Of course."
"Afterward, with meritorious deeds, you can continue to choose."
"Within 'Blossom Cherry,' nobody can usurp your merits; what's yours is yours."
The man sitting in the back row's voice revealed an uncontrollable excitement.
Ryosuke cooperated by speeding up his breathing.
But deep down?
He sneered to himself.
If he didn't know Onodera, he might have believed it.
Is it because there are factions within 'Blossom Cherry'?
Or does he believe Onodera will abide by the rules of 'Blossom Cherry,' not revealing his identity?
The latter is more likely!
