== What kind of name is Rena? ==
'''Rika:''' "...Rena's not here. Do you know where she is, Keiichi?"
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "Huh? She was just there, actually... Hey, Mion. Where did Rena go?"
<br />'''Mion:''' "Rena~? Didn't she go to the bathroom? She did say that she's been having bowel troubles lately."
I hadn't heard anything about that!
'''Keiichi:''' "...Satoko, do you know where Rena went?"
<br />'''Satoko:''' "Rena, you say? I just passed her in the hallway. Rena has class duties today, so she's off to water the flower bed."
<br />'''Mion:''' "ah~ It was Rena's turn for class duty. That's very much appreciated."
...Rena, Rena, Rena. ...Upon hearing it repeated, a thought came to mind.
<br />It's rude to say this about someone's name... but it was a weird name.
<br />It was like some foreigner's name.
'''Keiichi:''' "What kind of name is Rena, I wonder... What kind of kanji does her name use?"
<br />'''Rika:''' "...Rena is her nickname. She has a proper name as well."
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "What, really!? I was sure that Rena Ryuugu was her full name."
<br />'''Satoko:''' "Well...I can understand you making that mistake since we only call her Rena."
She even signs her name as "Rena." It's like it's her real name in school.
'''Keiichi:''' "I wonder what her real name is... Let's ask her when she comes back!"
Satoko and Rika-chan looked at each other.
'''Rika:''' "...You don't need to ask her. We'll tell you what it is."
<br />'''Satoko:''' "It's the 'rei from 'orei' and the 'na' from 'nara.' Her name is Reina Ryuugu!"
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "Reina, is it? ...Hmm. So it's read out as Rena instead of Reina? That's a pretty interesting reading."
<br />'''Rika:''' "...No, that's not it. 'Reina' is the correct way."
<br />'''Satoko:''' "Rena had told us that she wanted us to call her 'Rena.' So we call her Rena."
<br />'''Mion:''' "Kei-chan... Rena is Rena, you know? Only strangers call her Reina. You get where this is going?"
I understood what Mion was saying.
<br />It didn't matter what her real name was, only what names we used between us!
<br />Rena Ryuugu is Rena. She's nobody other than that.
'''Keiichi:''' "So I was thinking, if I had a nickname, would you call me by that?"
<br />'''Mion:''' "If it's good. So what do you want to be called?"
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "Con man."
Rena then came back into the classroom. One of the juniors near the door told Rena people were looking for her.
'''Rena:''' "What's this now? Who is looking for me, I wonder? I wonder?"
Seeing that, both Mion and I sneered.
'''Keiichi:''' "Bailiff, Ryuugu doth show herself!!"
<br />'''Mion:''' "Con man, you're quite sinister... Hwah whah whah!!!"
<br />'''Rena:''' Wh-What is this, what is this!? Keiichi-kun and Mii-chan are evil bailiffs? A con man!?"
<br />'''Keiichi:''' "Damn you, Renanosuke Ryuugu! Today doth be when thou meetest thy maker. Have at the~!!"
<br />'''Rena:''' "Wah! Wah! Suke-san, Kaku-san, show them what-for!"
<br />'''Satoko:''' "Aye aye, sir!!!"
<br />'''Rike:''' "...I expect my fee to be paid to my Swiss bank account."
Since it's come to this, we have no choice! We'll just have a grand battle with five people...!
Rena's fierce punches exploded in the proper timing to take out the seal.
<br />The evil that was Mion and myself was vanquished in the end...
'''Keiichi:''' "I do hope that Rena does go on a journey to make the world a better place. How about heading to Nagata-chou?"
<br />'''Rena:''' "...My destination is decided by where the kyute stuff gathers."
The toll of the bell signaled that break time was over.
'''Rena:''' "come on, come on Keiichi-kun, Mii-chan. The teacher's coming!"
I took Rena's hand and stood up.
<br />It was just as the teacher had entered the classroom.
<br />...Just one more hour. Man oh man. ...Got to buckle down for one more!
