"You're joking?"
I asked nervously as I look at him, but he didn't deny nor showed any expression.
"Maybe"
He tells me, I can't read him so it's hard to tell. This hyoga guy is scary. Though I know something, but I wouldn't tell straight up, this guy is up to something obviously. So, I lied.
"I don't know anything about tsukasa after getting de petrified"
"Lies won't save you miss y/n"
Crap, how he found out, am I that popular being smart even now?
Hyoga then slowly raised his spear, pointing to my neck as I stiffen, he glances at me, opening his eyes slightly and threatens.
"If you don't tell me, I'll make sure you won't wake up yet still breathing.
I gulped out of fear, I hesitated whether I should or should not tell him. I'm not selfish of a person to betray. But tsukasa did try to kill senku for a reason while the reason was because he wants to change the world where everything is free.
Should I tell take revenge?

"Hyoga, someone's coming"
The pink girl alarms as hyoga put his spear down. He then warns me.
"Stay quiet about this. I won't let you go easily, little owl"
I watched the pink girl and hyoga walked away and disappearing to the forest as I sigh in relief. Falling to my knees as I catch my breath and processed what just happened.
"What are you doing here?"
I got startled and looked back to see another white hair guy but green eyes and yellow clothing. also much smaller, less inch taller than me, I guess. Who's this guy?
"I'm sorry to startle you, are you ok?"
He tells, his eyes soften as he looks at me and I nod.
"I'm fine, I just can't sleep and went here"
I lied since I can't tell what really happened or else chaos. Luckily, he believed me.
"I see but you shouldn't be here, it's dangerous."
He sat beside me and looking up the night sky, so did I and widened my eyes. Stars. They're everywhere and shining bright, how come I didn't see this when I was walking up here.
"I see why you came here, the stars are beautiful tonight"
"Yes, they are"
I agree as we both gaze up the night sky, I felt relaxed now after that stiff talk earlier which scared me. I glance at him and notice arrows bows, now that I take a closer look, it reminds me Robin Hood but yellow version of clothes.

Few days passed after encountering with senku, I still felt upset leaving early.
I sighed while I stare afar, since I'm the brains or more like the library, since I know everything. I was told not to roam around alone to the forest or elsewhere or I might get hurt, only allowing me out when they go mushroom or bush hunting for plants, so they don't get poisoned, since they see me weak and delicate.
Not going to lie, I maybe strong but not that strong like current warriors right now, being able to kill animals with ease, while I could only pick plants and mushrooms.
"y/n chan, it's time for hunting"
Mr. gen calls out to me as he appears at the entrance.
"I'll be there"
I fixed myself a bit and head down to meet up with Mr. gen, people who are carrying baskets on their back to put the plants on and at least 3 guards to protect us while collecting berries and such, including hyoga in the guarding group.
This makes me feel chills in my body, remembering our talk yesterday.
''looks like hyoga chan is keeping an eye today"
"Indeed, Mr. gen"
I can see them right there, it's usually the pink hair girl, Homura Momiji, following me around when doing these tasks, not that spear guy who almost killed me.
As I pick some berries, the mentalist surprised me with a blow behind my ear. I turn to him and just innocently smile like he didn't startle me earlier.
He proceeded helping me gather the berries and putting on the small basket when he whispered, talking to me in a tone I can only hear.
"Would you like to see him again?"
He asks, making my eyes wide. I continue what I'm doing as I glance at the mentalist.
"What's your plan?"
