Some said they would immediately leave; some said they would accept the missions; some said they would wait and observe the situation; some said that the ordinary citizens should be evacuated; some even said that Armageddon was coming, so they were going to confess to their secret crush

Well, those types of non-serious posts were instantly buried.
Seiji looked over all the serious posts. The most common opinion everyone had was that Soul Society absolutely needed to deal with this situation successfully. If Soul Society failed, then this new organization would likely die right here. This was literally a life and death trial for Soul Society.
Because of this, it was highly likely that Soul Society would be offering ample rewards for helping deal with the Realm of Cherry Blossoms. Although Soul Society hadn’t mentioned specific rewards yet, people were already looking forward to it.
It wasn’t only the matter of Spirit World #1 that needed dealing with. Inner World #1 would also require more people, so there might be missions and rewards related to that as well.
The user named Fan posted to support this, claiming that he got rewarded far beyond what he’d expected for participating in last night’s monster extermination. He claimed that he would definitely be joining the next monster extermination as well.
“I think that Soul Society will become more and more important in the future. It’s best to help them while they’re just starting. It’ll be quite beneficial if you get in their good graces while it’s still easy. I don’t care if you think I’m just shilling for them because they paid me. I’m simply saying what I believe, and it’s up to you guys to believe me or not. This is a great opportunity. But, as everyone also knows, this is even more of a danger, a tremendous danger! It’s quite possible that many people will die. And, I’m not talking about ordinary people. Those who rashly accept missions are nothing more than idiots. Those who only think about escaping without considering the opportunity are also idiots. Even if you can run away from this incident, what about the future?”
Fan didn’t post any more after that, but everyone understood what he meant.
People asked why this happened, what exactly Spirit Worlds were, what the Midnight Incident was about
 They hoped that Soul Society would answer these questions.
There was no reply.
These critical questions were probably the highest-level secrets. Even most Soul Society members were probably unaware of the answers, not to mention mere account holders. That was Seiji’s opinion.
Seiji refreshed the forum topic, and saw a new reply that caused his gaze to sharpen.
“Darkness has always been present.”
This poster’s username was Starcloud.
This was Yui’s account!
“What does that exactly mean?” Seiji replied to her message.
He received no response.
Seiji browsed the forum some more, and confirmed that there was no more useful information before closing the webpage.
After this, he intended to summon all the members of his knight order and tell them all the information he knew so that they could discuss what to do.
But, right now, he wanted to contact a certain person first.
———————————————————————
Miyabi Ishihara was currently by herself in the school library.
There wasn’t anything in particular that she wanted to do here. She came here simply because she wanted to be here.
Staying by herself amongst all these books, she faintly felt as if she was a princess alone in her castle.
She felt this seemed pretty nice.
She didn’t need to pay attention to any other people or think about anything else. All she had to do was read her books.
She could find anything she wanted in these books. The books could be about reality, or about fantasy.
She could immerse herself fully in a book, or simply be an observer. No matter what type of story or event was contained within, she could quietly experience or appreciate it.
This was the greatest freedom in the world.
After flipping another page of her book, she raised her teacup to take a sip, but discovered that there was no more tea left.
She then picked up the tea kettle to add more tea, when she suddenly heard the sound of light laughter.
This laugh sounded both familiar yet unfamiliar.
Miyabi stood up and walked towards the source of the sound.
She walked in between tall bookshelves on either side. Passing through these seemed just like walking through so many doorways as if she was walking towards another world.
“No, not here
”
“Ahn
 Sheesh
”
“If anyone sees
 You’ll have to take responsibility
”
A seductive sounding voice spoke up. Her voice was identical to the light laughter from earlier
 the same girl’s voice.
Who was she?
What was she doing?
‘How did she enter the school library without me noticing?’
Miyabi became suspicious about this, and felt disgust towards that voice as she felt this girl who was speaking was currently doing
 something inappropriate.
This wasn’t a place to be doing such things!
‘This is my personal castle, a quiet and divine domain! Nobody is allowed to tread upon it!!’
“Wahn
 No
”
“Although there’s hardly anyone here
 If we’re really seen
”
“Eek
 Ahn
”
Just who was it? Where was she!? The student librarian became angry.
Miyabi would definitely give the person a vicious scolding! No matter who she was!!
Miyabi quickened her pace due to anger and disgust. After passing countless bookshelves, she finally saw

A girl whose hair was scattered, clothes were half-taken off, face flushed red, eyes watery, with such a sexy aura
 It was Miyabi herself!
Miyabi was astonished by the sight.
A girl identical to herself, wearing the same Genhana High School uniform, was currently supporting herself with her hands against a bookshelf and moaning. Behind her was a tall boy pressed up against her butt. One of his hands was holding her waist, and the other hand was kneading her breasts. His crotch was constantly pumping.
“Enn
 Ah
 No
 Don’t be so
 forceful
”
“I can’t
 take it anymore
”
“Ahh
”
Just as it seemed that she was about to shout out loudly, the boy covered her mouth.
Then, the boy temporarily stopped moving and kissed the girl.
Miyabi’s eyes widened as she watched this happen before her. Her mind went completely blank.
The two kissed for a while before separating.
The girl seemed to suddenly notice Miyabi, or perhaps she realized already that Miyabi was there. She turned around and smiled ambiguously at Miyabi.
Miyabi felt thunderstruck!
When she returned to her senses, she discovered that she was running away at top speed.
She passed by so many bookshelves that once again seemed like many doors.
“No
 that definitely isn’t me
 it absolutely isn’t!” she shouted at the top of her lungs.
“I’m not like that at all
 I definitely wouldn’t do such a thing

“In the library
 like that
 so shameless
”
Miyabi constantly denied it. Yet, the scene she just saw kept replaying itself in her mind.
She even began to experience that girl
 that “herself’s” experience!
The joy of being doted on, along with the physical stimulation and pleasure
 This felt incredibly embarrassing, yet also so wondrous

The library was a quiet and holy realm for her. Miyabi truly believed this.
But precisely because of this, it felt quite wonderful for her to personally trod all over it

No!!!
‘I really don’t think like that! Definitely not!! That person wasn’t me!!!’
‘
Really?’
A tiny voice whispered that in her heart.
‘Definitely not!’ Miyabi wanted to answer like this.
But for some mysterious reason, she lacked the conviction to answer so.
After running for quite a while, Miyabi slowed down and walked around in a daze. Without realizing it, she had exited the bookshelves section and returned to the reading section.
The girl who looked identical to her was now sitting where Miyabi had just been sitting. She was currently talking to someone on her cell phone.
“
I’m pregnant
”
“I don’t want to have it
”
“Why not? It’s no big deal, just treat it as a lesson, it’s your fault for never wearing a condom
”
“Just how will you take responsibility
”
She kept speaking words that were doubting, but she actually had such a sweet expression on her face.
“I don’t want to get married this early at all; do you want me to become a housewife when I haven’t even graduated from high school?”
“You say such sweet words
 but what will I do if you get tired of me in the future?”
“You’re so handsome, and so many girls like you
”
