Chapter 145: A Taste of Sweetness, A Brush with Fate
Sayaka's eyes sparkled like a pair of tiny stars.
"Mitsuha! You're so cool today!"
Her admiration was clear and unfiltered, the kind of innocent praise that came straight from the heart.
Teshigawara couldn't help but laugh, his voice full of amusement.
"They must be furious right now!"
The glee in his tone was unmistakable—whoever "they" were, they'd clearly underestimated "Mitsuha."
Yukima Azuma, now inhabiting Mitsuha's body, didn't let their reactions ruffle him. If anything, he took it in stride. Since he was going to be Mitsuha for a while longer, he might as well solve some of her youthful troubles while he was at it.
But what he hadn't expected—was how excited her two best friends were.
"Today, Mitsuha feels different," Sayaka murmured as she hugged one of Yukima Azuma's arms, laughing softly.
"Cool, but in a mysterious, adult kind of way."
Normally, Mitsuha was cheerful, sweet, and undeniably cute. But today, something about her had shifted—her presence, her aura, maybe even the way she moved. It was subtle, yet impossible to ignore.
