On the balcony of the Kuonji residence, Aoko Aozaki leaned against the stone railing, her head tilted back, a pair of binoculars in her hands, gazing at the large mansion on the opposite slope.
"Ah!!! The little one left ages ago. Why haven’t those other three little brats left yet!!!" Aoko said, chewing on a blade of grass, her face a mask of annoyance.
Aoko’s goal was simple: take out the witness, Haru, with a few well-aimed magic bullets, then go back to her normal, boring life.
But there were five people in the mansion on the hill. Alice had suggested she just rush the mansion, go on a violent rampage, and solve the problem once and for all.
But Aoko had flatly refused.
She wasn’t a psychopathic killer. Being forced to kill one innocent person for the sake of the mages’ principles was already hard enough. To rush into the mansion and slaughter a man and four children... she thought she’d go insane.
In the end, though Aoko had entered the world of magic, unlike those mages who had shed their humanity, she still possessed the values of a normal person.
In Alice’s words—fallen into darkness, yet still possessing a pure heart, Aoko was a prodigy, completely oblivious to her own natural disposition.
"Eh, they’re leaving, they’re leaving!" Aoko quickly straightened up, tightening her grip on the binoculars.
