Chapter 102: Takamiya Mana
A young girl dressed on a casual clothes, stepped forward while a casual gaze was locked into the two Spirit. He had a medium length blue hair, tied into a ponytail that swayed with the evening breeze. She looked at them with a smile and casually strolled toward them until she reach 5 meters in front of them.
Meanwhile, Shido felt his eye twitch at Kurumi's words.
"Oi! Don't tell her my name!"
He turned toward Kurumi with a glare, but the mischievous Spirit merely chuckled in response and stuck out her pink little tongue acting cute.
Of course, she had done it on purpose.
Her golden clock-like eye shimmered playfully as she tilted her head, as if feigning innocence.
"My, my, Shido-san, why do you look so troubled?" she purred, placing a hand over her mouth to hide a giggle.
Shido let out a deep sigh, already knowing there was no winning against Kurumi's teasing. But he decided to forgive her since she was cute.
"Shido?" Mana raised a brow at the name, then shifted her gaze toward the so-called 'Shadow', the male Spirit Kurumi had just addressed.
"I didn't expect Spirits to start using human names now," she mused, folding her arms. "I see, you're adapting yourselves quite well." She nodded, as if convinced that Spirits were beginning to integrate into human society.
But then, her expression darkened.
