Chapter 65: Echoes
"Alright... What the actual fuck is going on here!?" Orihime stared down from the blue sky, her eyes wide open as Johan hugged a beautiful woman who was completely naked, and crying, as if wanting to go away, but couldn't as Johan's grip was so tight.
Orihime thought of using a sword shower, her strongest attack to wipe this rapist monster, but knowing Velmire, he would never trust someone so scummy, so she didn't cut him into molecules, and decided to hear him out.
Sebastian also suddenly appeared right beside, his mouth parted wide, but it looked like not for the same reason as Orihime.
Johan looked up, his eyes twitched, but he schooled his expression, "Please don't misunderstand Miss Orihime, it's not like you think, Olivia is me."
Orihime's pupils dilated, while Sebastian understood it immediately. If Orihime learned about the God Tree, and Olivia, she could undoubtedly tell who they were, because every last important person got this information. Johan Von Matilda, Kirin Von Matilda, and Sebastian Bonwit were killed by Radhaan because of the crime of manipulating the God Tree.
She probably had the more close-to-truth and detailed version of this due to her rank, so she could guess this much.
Sebastian turned to face Orihime. He could ask about why the seal was opened later—Olivia seemed fine for now. "James has a power that allows his different personalities to come alive. It's a secret, so please keep it a secret," he said simply, taking over the excuse Johan provided, with so much confidence that no one would doubt it.
"...So, he... wants to be a woman deep inside..." Orihime's disgust-filled expression didn't get any softer, her eyes looking at James and Olivia like they were animals.
Johan's face went pale. Sebastian also didn't say anything. If he denied it, it would confirm that his previous statement was a lie. If he agreed... Sebastian really doubted he would get his daily treatment.
