In the living room of the Tohno mansion.
As Aoko’s words fell, the atmosphere plunged into a strange silence, broken only by the mournful wail of the cold winter wind against the glass, adding a chilling touch to the eerie scene.
Haru, his body sinking slightly into the soft sofa cushions, his hands crossed before his chest, his legs crossed, looked at Aoko and Alice across the tea table with an amused expression.
Alice’s brow furrowed slightly. She was deeply displeased by Haru’s strange gaze, but the situation was clearly one of a weak prey facing a strong predator. She suppressed her displeasure, her black eyes meeting his without flinching.
Even in a position of weakness, her life in his hands, the witch’s pride within her would not allow her to bow to him, even if he was a True Magic User at the pinnacle of the magical path.
However, unlike the calm and collected Alice, the impulsive and hot-tempered Aoko, under Haru’s visual assault, immediately felt goosebumps erupt on her skin.
If not for her awareness of his monstrous power, and the fact that her half-baked magic was useless, she would have already blasted him with a magic bullet.
But as time passed, the anger on the young woman’s delicate face grew stronger.
Thwack—!
Aoko slammed her hand on the table. The solid, heavy wooden tea table groaned under her violent blow.
