After the fight between Ken and Ryū, the group made their way home with Rin's companions — Inferna, Chris, Muganda, and Yuri.
The late afternoon sun cast long shadows across the streets of Niigata as they moved together.
Rin, now back in his usual appearance after dispelling the transformation, walked with a relaxed stride, his deep blue hair catching the light.
As they traveled, Rin turned slightly toward the others and told them in a low, straightforward voice that when they got home he would need them to help him out… that his lewd meter had gotten so low due to the fight with Ken.
His tone was casual but carried a clear undertone of need, the exhaustion from the intense battle having drained a significant portion of his accumulated energy.
So after all had happened, Rin was now back in school. The familiar hallways and classrooms of Tokyo Metropolitan University buzzed with the usual energy of students moving between lectures.
