Chapter 107: Brother Meets Sister
Yet, Shido was not the type to let a woman easily manipulate him, so he pulled her waist, causing Kurumi to let out a surprised gasp.
"My~," she purred.
As if the world around them had quieted, the only sound that remained was the distant chirping of cicadas, carried by the breeze. The setting sun bathed them in its warm, orange glow, casting long shadows on the ground.
Two pairs of eyes locked, the silence between them stretching as the moment seemed to hang in the air.
Despite her left eye being hidden beneath her bangs, Kurumi's gaze didn't hinder her to gaze at Shido eyes.
Kurumi smiled at him after a brief moment of surprise, her expression calm and composed. Although she looked calm on the outside, Kurumi was quite nervous and a excited inside.
There was a chance that Shido might kiss her.
Kurumi was well aware of this ability of him since she got an information from someone trustworthy. She wasn't sure whether she should accept it if Shido wanted to kiss her.
Kurumi hadn't yet accomplished her goal. To lose her Spirit powers so easily, just like that, was simply unthinkable.
She wanted to save the world. To save her friend. And if it meant becoming a devil that shrouded the world in darkness, then so be it.
Kurumi needed time, time to go back to the past and kill the first Spirit and to do that she needed time, but Kurumi alone didn't have much time so she change her approach to devouring people's time.
