Book 12: Chapter 3 (1)
“To think that I’d come here again.”
The sun had set and the moon had risen in the sky. Shin, alone, stood in front of Marino’s grave. The others were probably already asleep.
From the clear, cloudless sky, the moon quietly shone on the grave, the flowers surrounding it, and Shin.
“Hey, Marino. Is Tiera somehow connected to you?”
Shin naturally did not expect to hear an answer, but he could not help but ask. The skills Tiera had learned were ones Shin knew well. He had seen them often, since they were Marino’s skills.
She had consulted with him many times before learning some of them. It would be a different situation if the skills Tiera knew were one or two…but as far as he could remember, Tiera had all of them. It was too much to be labelled as a mere coincidence.
“….correct. I am inside that girl.”
“!?”
Shin turned around, shocked. Even if it was in his private area, it should have been impossible for anyone to sneak up on the current Shin unnoticed.
