A Fallen Queen

Reino's fist collided with the pitch-black scythe. At the same time, darkness continued to spread from Athena.

-Cold

The temperature dropped as the darkness widened. The frostiness that felt like it pierced through the skin as if winter had suddenly appeared. "One will not be surprised by thee. One may be immortal, but one cannot withstand your attacks that sever the source of the gods, so one must defeat you with forbidden darkness!"

Athena injected her power into the wrist holding her pitch-black scythe. In order to completely resist golden armor and his damning light, he also brought out his full power. Before he knew it, the spreading darkness had covered the entire sky, extinguishing the light from the moon and stars, and the entire surface was plunged into chaotic darkness.

Apart from the garuda's armor golden light, not a single ray of light could penetrate this darkness. Even so, Reino's eyes could still see perfectly through this deep darkness—he was very surprised. The surrounding flowers withered in an instant. The trees also lost their composure.

Green plants of all sizes began to wither one after another. The fruits turn to dust at certain moments. The branches also wither, shrinking until they look like dry trunks. Even the sound of insects vanished from the night.

—This is [Death].

Holding the divine power that commands death and destruction, Athena injects her most dangerous power into her scythe. "One summons winter, lord of life and death, slick messenger of the underworld, cunning queen of procurement. One commanded by Reino Barack, becomes king of death, rots into a corpse!"

Athena said as she slashed at Reino with her scythe. The spell entered through Reino's ears and started to attack his body, which was slowly turning cold.

—What's this?

I can't be defeated here. Maintaining his stance against the scythe, Reino tried to imagine the next scene. He had planned to attack Athena, but was blocked by her black scythe, but the black scythe was also part of Athena. With this, could the [armor] still neutralize everything?

This was one created to be only effective against Athena—an ability that could overpower and definitely kill Athena!

Kick-

Reino kicked the scythe and charged towards Athana throwing a spinning back kick. Athana managed to block Reino's kick with her scythe, her movements were very precise. Even though she still received the impact from Reino's attack, the damage was minimized. What else can we expect from the goddess of wisdom? "Really, a kick? Your kick is really heavy, Reino barack. Is it also because of the authority you took from my comrade that you stole?"

"..." Reino didn't answer, his feet still cold. The aura of death and poison was truly uncomfortable. Even as a campione he is immune to poison and negative effects but some effects are still felt. For example the chill from the death incarnation of the goddess.

The divine power that makes up the goddess diverts feelings directly through the tip of the spell. Earth, darkness, wisdom, snakes, birds, cows, queens, wives, scary women, reborn women, immortality—

Reino bowed with all his might towards everything he had. At the same time, Reino was also inflicted by the [Death] spell. He wasn't sure how long he had lost consciousness. Either a few seconds, or a few minutes, but the moment Reino realized, he and Athena were lying on the ground. Reino pressed all his strength into his limbs, desperately trying to rise to his feet.

Even if the two of them fell together, Athena would not lose so easily; As the one who attacked her, he knew it better than anyone.

Athena slowly got back up. There were no scars left on his body, but the wounds he inflicted did not heal quickly. "As expected, winning isn't so easy, but it would be great if I won like that."

"Nonsense. To call one a snake goddess; no matter how injured, neither snake nor woman will die. Even if they die, they will be reborn."

The snake that shed skin is reborn. A woman who wouldn't die even by losing a lot of blood. Both are representations of eternity. But even though her words sounded kind, Athena's face was very pale. But at the same time, Reino also lost a lot of strength due to the words of death. Although there were no injuries, he felt that his life force had been significantly reduced. The result is that the two continue to face each other in a critical state.

"With this, your [Armor] cannot be used anymore, I am sure of this." This troublesome fact was exposed by Athena.

She wasn't wrong. [Armor] is gone after unleashing its full power. Reino no longer had weapons that could attack and defend. "In other words, you now wish to use the power of the sun...among Garuda's incarnations, the closest to the sun are the speed of [Suparna] and the holy bird."

His own fighting power was already grasped by his opponent; The goddess of wisdom was truly a difficult opponent to fight. Reino couldn't help but sigh.

But he didn't even have time for that. Athena was pushed into silence, once again attacking with her black scythe. Reino barely managed to dodge. Followed by the second swing. Cut the skin off the shoulder. Third attack His ankle was almost severed. Despite losing the power of [Golden Armor], he is still in the [Fighter] suvarnakala incarnation; it still had power, and was able to understand Athena's intentions, as well as predict her next course of action. Hence, he could at least dodge the fatal attack and regenerate with his holy bird fire.

—But if he continued to persevere, he would eventually be defeated.

He couldn't cope with the offensive pressure; Because of that he didn't have to bother with defense, as there was no worry of the opponent retaliating. Then, to attack the opponent, forcing him into the catastrophe was enough. The scythes pounded, slashed, and attacked non-stop. Dodge. Bend over. Dodge. Against Athena's endless attacks, Reino could only continue to dodge.

"What is it, Reino Barack. Why don't you use the power of [Suparna]? Isn't that the only weapon capable of defeating one?" Athena sneered in a voice full of ridicule. After showing everything so clearly, why would I use it against you? You must have already prepared the countermeasures.

Reino cursed in his mind as he desperately searched for a path to victory. If he continued the mid-range battle against Athena, there would be no chance of winning. Reino completely understood this.

...While Reino was still pondering, Athena's scythe swung right before his eyes. Reino hastily jumped back and managed to protect his vitals. But he couldn't avoid it completely. His chest was hit, spraying blood into the air; Even though it wasn't a fatal wound, it was still very deep.

—Reino was instantly convinced of one thing. He was already in a crisis.

"It's great that you dodged! While enjoying life is an ugly sight, Reino Barack!" The incessant scythe attacks forced Reino to dodge by rolling on the ground.

His entire body was covered in wounds and then healed again with his sacred bird Flame regeneration.

Although, he still managed to maintain his vital point of vitality and his stamina was almost at its limit. Another ten minutes and he would be lying on the ground, allowing Athena to torment him like a certain perverted Pig.

With his entire body stained with blood and dirt, he rolled on the ground; Even though it looked embarrassing, it was enough as long as he survived death. Reino finally stopped running away.

He stood up with his legs shaking before slowly recovering. Athena didn't attack, watching the slowly improving Reino. The wound burns and slowly regenerates. Not leaving any scars, as if there had never been any wounds there.

"O—that's right, that damn holy fire."

Athena muttered towards the east. Right. Even though the darkness had blocked out all light, the eastern sky was starting to light up. Sunrise. The light of dawn splashed the eastern sky red. It was clearly still midnight, five hours shorter than sunrise. But the sky at this time was very clear.

Reino took back his stance, he activated Suparna's incarnation. This is his most annoying incarnation because it only has many annoying conditions that he must fulfill. Reino is ready for the finishing blow, Superna and Garuda's martial arts abilities are the perfect combination. But the price for this has not been able to redeem Reino, at least for now.

"Loving holy bird. A little bird that is untouched by death or swallowed by the flames. Through the power of truth he wields, save this place from Agni's wrath. For those who obey the voice of truth extinguish it. Come to me, for victory! Immortal Sun, lend me the shining holy bird. The fire of the Sun that dispels darkness, may it devour you! Defeat the evil one, and the strong, fear me, for I have wings. For my wings will punish you for your curse and the evil ones will not be able to touch me!"

An area that was spread tens of meters around Athena was engulfed in white light. A holy fire that consumes sinners. From the far eastern horizon, burning flames rushed towards Athena.

"Wowowowowowowowo!!"

Even those stronger than Athena could only cry in sorrow. The sun god who replaced the ruler of the underworld and the flames that came out that night were enemies of this goddess. But...

"Hahahahaha! Don't underestimate me, Reino Barack! One has made it very clear. One has known your last card for a long time! This is only your struggle in vain."

Athena's surroundings were protected by a black charm. An extremely powerful black barrier capable of obliterating all light. It warded off white fire. In order to prepare for this move, she had probably been gathering the power of the god of darkness all this time, and then waiting for the right moment to use it. If Athena protects herself with this until the fire goes out and Reino's attacks stop...

But Reino shook his head. "You're wrong, the one who underestimates others is you. Even though you don't look down on me, you do ignore it—we're human."

Reino smiled, instead of moving away from Athena who managed to neutralize her fire attack. Reino did the opposite, he approached his opponent.

"Re-Taekwondo Alang," the attack cleanly hit Athena's chin. The shockwave made him lose consciousness for a few seconds.

Reino didn't waste this opportunity, he threw a forward kick, throwing Athena into the air.

"Re-Taekwondo, renewal recoilless"

"Re-Taekwondo complete gift Package"

Reino took wide stances, stances that martial arts practitioners rarely used when preparing to attack, but this time it was the most suitable. Re-Taekwondo is the principle concept used to perform basic movements flawlessly, focusing every effort on a single point of attack, eliminating unnecessary minor movements. This causes the power of the kick to become more and more powerful to the point where he can break the space. But this martial art has three basic weaknesses. That is limited to melee combat, Both are body-loading and the latter has a limited form of attack.

"Get ready, Athena! Let's see you feel the burning flame that subdues the darkness! Re-Taekwondo complete gift Package!" Reino moved quickly, suparna again increasing his prowess, like the arrow of light or the spear of the sun god descending from the sky.

Athena's face revealed her unease.

A silver light. A brilliant silver light—a cold light, like the tip of a sword. Reino threw many attacks and various taekwondo techniques at Athena attacking from all sides. Throw it back to earth. Reino slowly approached Athena who was trying to get back up.

"This is the final blow, taste this, Athena!"

Re-Taekwondo form the third hwachook, reino running towards Athena throwing kicks all the sides of Athena's head. He threw with all his might, overthrowing the goddess.

"Reino Barack, you carried out the sneak attack of the God of Defying Athena! Damn, to have the title of hatred as a demon lord, I never expected that you would be so despicable!"

"Stop blaming others! It's because you underestimated humanity that caused your own death!"

After being hit by the silver attack and kneeling down, Athena was swallowed by the black smoke. After a few minutes, the smoke finally went out, everyone returned to their respective positions.

The dark night is gone.

Yes, countless street lamps now illuminate streets and streets, and light from skyscrapers leaks from windows—everything returns to the old semi-darkness.

Reino released the breath he was holding and looked up at the night sky.

The crescent moon and many stars twinkled in their light.

Even though he ignored his true feelings, he still couldn't claim the Tokyo night sky was beautiful. Maybe decades had gotten him used to it, but the feeling right now wasn't bad either.

However, the duel was over.

First he had to hurry home and take a shower, then sleep in peace. Taking care of the aftermath of the battle could wait later.

"How's Reino doing? That fight just now, I guess receiving the Best Supporting Actress Award wouldn't be an exaggeration."

Two girls enter into a very fierce battlefield.

One of them was an elegant Black haired nekotama, while the other was a girl from kalan nakiri who was wearing a miko outfit and looking very serious for some reason.

"If I can take care of it, you can get as many awards as you want, even an awards ceremony could."

Reino replied while sitting cross-legged on the withered grass.

Even he was exhausted.

But, even though his body had to be sore in pain and ravaged by pain, he didn't feel it, and even the serious wound on his chest was starting to heal. The recovery ability of the god slayer is still very high.

However...

The disaster in this garden, half the cause is him.

How many people can still recognize this as Hamarikyu Garden?

He wasn't sure when, but a large crater appeared on the ground.

The pine forest that was left since the Edo period, the various kinds of colorful flowers in the garden, were all destroyed by the fight between him and Athena.

—Reino pondered; He's overdoing it again.

"So how are we supposed to deal with this troublesome goddess? I guess I'd better hurry and give her the final blow."

"...Besides. If we leave Athena like this, she will definitely become a source of disaster again someday, so we should naturally take precautions."

Kuroka suggested as if he was mocking. Although Kuroka looked hard to express, but she agreed.

What they saw was Athena who looked like a little girl sitting on the ground after throwing a tantrum.

Maybe because she was burned by the flames of the eagle, or maybe because she had expended too much divine power, but the mother goddess of darkness had shrunk back into the little girl she had seen a few hours ago. .

She was truly a goddess with divine immortality. Even though he was only hit by the flames, he was already healed.

Of course, even Reino doubted such an attack could actually kill him.

Even though he had lost his combat ability, he still had a terrifying vitality.

"Erina-chan, what were you talking about just now, was it from your usual power? Through your intuition as a miko, or a similar ability?"

"No, just normal people think... for something like this, even those who aren't miko would decide things like that."

Kuroka's answer lightened the burden on Reino's heart.

Even though he would have come to the same conclusion with a poor prediction, Reino still felt relieved.

"Then, let's split up here... Athena, do you hear me? These people want to finish you off; you better leave this country quickly."

"—Why don't you put an end to it? Killing one will allow you to seize new powers, become an even greater god-slayer; Why would you abandon such a good opportunity?"

After hearing Athena's unimpressed angry words, Reino couldn't help but reply in a frustrated and tired voice:

"The ones I already have are hard enough to deal with. After all, how can I kill someone just because I beat them in a fight; I'm a civilized person, you know."

"What?"

"I said, I'm not a god born in the Bronze or Iron Age. This is the twenty-first century now, we don't have the habit of taking other people's lives after winning a duel; Don't force that ancient practice on me."

After suppressing Kuroka's and Kuroko's desire to converse with his sight, Reino continued:

"Even though I've always won competitions, I never thought about killing a losing opponent. If you don't want to accept it, then let's continue with this: the saying goes 'the winner takes everything, while the loser must obey the winner' ... can you take it?"

Reino asked the thin Athena.

The goddess endured it for a long time before finally speaking:

"...Well, the loser must obey the victor's orders. One does not know if we will fight again, please take care of yourselves; Fate, we will meet again one day."

As Athena stood up, her silver hair swayed.

"The one who has defeated one, one will always remember your name—goodbye, Reino Barack!"

Turning to face Reino and his group, Athena slowly left.

As soon as he could no longer see Athena's tiny reflection, Kuroka sighed on purpose:

"Reino, you know, even if you defeat a [Heretic God], your authority won't increase if you don't take their lives?"

"Don't talk about killing so casually. After all, even though we defeated those gods, they were able to bounce back like nothing happened, how could we manage it so easily? Also I didn't really beat him, that guy already first sealing his power, all I'm dealing with is his snake incarnation and some of the remnants of his power"

Reino replied seriously, denying his partner's simple explanation.

To those people, resurrection and rebirth were everyday things, so they were all immortal monsters. With such a blessing, he could continue to attack without worrying about injuring the opponent.

"…Even though you say that, you never really considered killing him? Eh, I originally planned to help Reino quickly become independent, but if this continues; Our future doesn't look very bright." Kuroka sighed deeply, the man with the wings of Fire and his group were really troublesome. "Hopefully we don't have to deal with that group again…"

"I don't want to be a monster anymore, so don't make decisions for me with such a carefree attitude... Really, is Erina-chan okay? She still looks really weak."

Reino didn't want to discuss the group anymore. He changed the subject by asking about Kuroka who was still staring at him with cold eyes.

When he left, he was still very gentle; Why is he like a mine about to explode now?

He must not be feeling well. It was only natural, because he had asked her too much before.

Reino focused his eyes on Kuroka's face.

"My body really doesn't have any problems, I'm really grateful that Reino-sama was able to come save me right then and there."

Cool tone

Behind his polite words was a cold expression.

...Is he really that angry? Then he had to hurry up and apologize; Reino kept thinking about how he could defend himself. Although it is very embarrassing, but it is also a matter of survival.

"Erina-san, I'm really sorry for causing so much trouble with this incident."

Reino lowered his head, noticing that his waist was bent.

What a disaster.

He wasn't sure if the hint was enough. Is he still being scolded? He felt very uncomfortable about it. But Kuroka didn't care about it at all; Instead she starts berating him for something completely unexpected.

"No, I don't mind that, it's because of Reino-sama, I faced such extreme circumstances, but you also saved me, so I don't mind. Besides, there's something else I want to ask you."

He revealed a dark smile just like a few hours ago.

For that to reveal itself on Kuroka's pretty face again... was terrifying.

"You are a real demon lord—with the authority of a true god-slayer. However, this power is not for you to do as you wish. What do you think about this?"

"Uhh... about this... I think you are absolutely right."

"Then why don't you look around again! The garden is in ruins, and how do you plan to deal with what's going on there?"

Erina pointed sharply at what was in front of them.

Reino glanced in a distant direction and froze at the sight of the tragic appearance in the night sky.

"Uhhh..."

The roofs of several skyscrapers that reached into the sky—

Two thirds of the roof had been cut off, completely gone like a stick of butter cut by a knife.

Furthermore, the same thing happened to the highway from the Capital Expressway.

An entire section of the road disappeared, like ice melted by a torch, an entire section of the road had disappeared without a view.

The shockwave and holy bird fire must have caused all of this

Due to the ultra-high temperature, the crushed highway has a melted appearance near the edges; But this is not candy or cream or ice, but reinforced concrete.

"If that's the case, they should be able to fix the melting part right?"

"Who knows? Even if it could, it would be very difficult; Just the construction of a scaffold building on top of that skyscraper would be quite problematic."

Kuroka and Reino discussed as if they were casually chatting.

The former did not take this as a serious matter, while the latter simply chose this tone of speaking to escape reality.

"Didn't I tell you this morning? You haven't paid enough attention to your surroundings; it hasn't even been a day and you can still do this."

As the only person present with common sense and moral integrity, Kuroka coldly spoke:

"And you are too lowly, too filthy, so perverted! For someone who is indecent, lustful, and careless when you obtain the power of a demon lord, I doubt this world will last much longer! I completely misjudged you; of course , I thought at the time that you were a reliable and honest person, but I was too naive. I was so disappointed."

"That, Erina-chan... low, indecent, that's not right—"

Faced with the strange miko in front of him, Reino retorted in fear.

But a sharp gaze separated them.

"Really, Reino-sama, you've forgotten what you're doing this quickly? Kuroka-san is Italian so I won't talk about it, but you're Japanese; How could you do something so lowly, dirty, you should really ponder with shame!"

"Huh? What do you mean? I, did I do something weird?"

"Did you really forget? Passion—uh, that warm kiss, what a shameless thing to do!"

Well, Reino finally understood the reason why Erina was so angry.

But he was also very troubled at the same time.

He wasn't very good at explaining himself, and it would be very difficult to clarify that it was the magic required to defeat Athena; It would be better to leave this to his more charismatic partner.

He pleaded with Kuroka with his eyes, before he realized too late that this was like digging his own grave.

"Hehe, so Erina doesn't like that move. You're really late to mature... At first, Reino didn't feel much different~~"

What he said, 'in the beginning' was completely unnecessary!

"Since ancient times, wasn't a girl's kiss the best blessing for brave warriors? So I gave him strength this way. Reino was shy at first, but now, he can't even fight anymore unless he does this—it's very worrying."

As he listened to Kuroka's explanation, Reino realized how sad it felt.

Even though it wasn't actually a lie, the evil explanation completely distorted the facts and deliberately concealed the truth.

"No, it's not like that, Erina-chan, it's actually..."

"If that's an excuse, then it won't be necessary, I already understand what's going on."

"Understood what you mean—"

"To be seduced by Kuroka-san like that, Reino-sama must have obeyed at all times. Right? I understand this very well, because Reino-sama is also a man; as long as your lover persuades you, you will carry out his every wish."

No explanation can be accepted.

Kuroka smiled as she said these words, her expression beautiful yet cold, accompanied by a cold emotionless expression.

"It's late at night, so I won't say anymore, but please visit Nanao Shrine tomorrow. I don't have to think about that time, so I'll properly educate you tomorrow—since I need to teach you these things seriously, then you'd better come yourself. Make sure you don't take your lover there."

He gave her a heartless verdict in her cold tone.

Generating tremendous pressure, Reino couldn't help but agree unintentionally.

"…By the way Erina-chan, what is the use of this paper."

Nakiri Erina as a Hime Miko, of course, is aware of what object Reino Barack is currently holding. It was a Shikigami paper and some stuffed golems from Marlin's magic system.

"Reino-san, you are a truly evil king."

"…" He gave her a heartless verdict in her cold tone, again… Produced a tremendous amount of pressure. Reino shivered unintentionally, ready to accept whatever order her highness the queen, 'Mariya Kuroka' gave to him.

"It's a magic paper for activating a magic Puppet. Shikigami are usually used by Japanese magicians to fight and help them in doing some heavy tasks, especially this one seems to be cleaning and repairing. While the doll has in short the same function only it doesn't specialize in repairs, its only advantage is its great strength."

"Wow what a totality"

Kuroka nodded as if tonight's events had nothing to do with her at all. His actions managed to get sighs and sharp gazes from Erina and Reino. They decided to ignore Kuroka this time, too tired to argue with her.

"So Erina-chan how to use it?"

Nakiri Eina held Reino's shikigami paper and examined it for a while. "Looks like we just need to activate it by pouring mana into the paper. For the doll you can do the same thing. They are programmed to make repairs and deal with the effects of the crash. I'm grateful…"

Mariya Kuroka stroked her chest after they got the shikigami paper and some golems from Reino's group, at least she didn't have to buy a new map for a while.

…

The fight with Athena took place in the evening on Saturday morning.

Just like a normal company, the Jounan Academy that Reino Barack entered also had a day off for today. This was originally going to be a quiet and relaxing day, spent recovering his battle wounds—a free day like that.

Yet he received such a harsh rebuke during the encounter between him and Mariya Kuroka, that his mind and body felt empty to the bone.

Still he tried his best.

He is a good person who will do his best to resolve matters peacefully regardless of how difficult it is. Furthermore, what he did with Kuroka last night was indispensable for victory while fighting.

All this he tried to explain as best he could.

But Kuroka's response was still cold.

"I see, that's how it is. But from Reino-sama's point of view, as long as this effort shows results; even if you say it's a good effort—"

Still not finished.

"Is that so.... Reino-sama, is this the reason for the idea? Or is it Kuroka? Don't you find this a bit ridiculous? An unrealistic and practical reason like that should at least be moderated. tricked me."

No solution was offered.

The result was three hours of continuous, continuous nagging; he really received his lesson in full this time.

Face to face with a beautiful yet rude girl, alone with just the two of them, the whole time felt like I was sitting on a needle...

Kuroka ended up being cold all day, her words full of thorns.

Nonetheless, Reino was very grateful that he cared about so many small details.

Sometimes when his words ended, he would ask Reino about the condition of his body.

"Are you really okay? Even though your body is really strong and different from ordinary people, but isn't there still a possibility that something went wrong? ...It's hard to believe that you've fully recovered, it's not normal at all in everything, But strange things like that only happen because you're such an unreasonable person!"

Kuroka scolded him in an angry tone.

Even though it wasn't straightforward, but Reino knew it was because he was worried about him.

Even though he was in mortal danger yesterday, he still worries about others more than himself; She really is a kind and strong girl.

—So no matter how angry or how cold Kuroka was to him, it was all a sign of Reino's consideration.

Thinking like this, Reino bowed and apologized seriously even at the end of all the scolding.

Sometimes in the middle of her speech, Kuroka blushed and gave off a troubled impression: "this is too much..." a little shackled in embarrassment.

This happened on Saturday.

…

The next day, Sunday, something very bad happened again.

It happened when Reino was holding the newspaper while he was watching the news on the living room television.

The districts of Edogawa, Koto, Central, and Port were engulfed in darkness for about four hours.

Regarding this, the official announcement was a power supply failure and it was still under investigation—they had a press meeting that didn't explain anything.

He confirmed the contents of television and newspapers; every media uses this as its main title.

But none of them reported in detail about how all the lighting and ignition devices failed.

It was clear that someone was in control of the information.

History Compilation Committee.

Probably done by the people he heard about yesterday. No, definitely them.

…

Rindo opened the glass door and entered the living room.

For some reason, her big sister's eyes were filled with ferocious killing intent, and she felt very strange.

"What's wrong? In a bad mood?"

"Nothing—I just met Erina-chii during a tea ceremony with some guests."

How about that?

Reino continued to read the newspaper as he pretended to listen; not that it would be anything important.

"Erina said to tell you that she was too rude yesterday and is really sorry."

Reino gave a casual answer as he casually read the newspaper.

But the situation changed in a completely unexpected direction.

"Reino-chan met Erina yesterday too? I remember that you arranged to meet on Friday by phone. Then you secretly met again yesterday... I hope Reino-chan can spill it all on me now."

Rindo said suddenly.

"What kind of relationship do you have with Erina-chii? Isn't it normal to visit a girl two days in a row? It doesn't feel like normal friendship... so, Reino-chan, if your conscience is clear, will you swear? for God's sake? How about it? Do you dare?"

Stubborn, and overzealous.

Plus the thought of Kuroka halfway through, things just got worse.

"Don't tell me, Reino-chan is playing both at the same time? I totally guessed it! I was always worried that one day you would become just like grandpa. Just as I expected! Ever since you left the taekwondo and silat that you always practiced, I thought there was something went wrong. Perhaps, you have given up your sports activities because of this immoral habit. Reino-chan, I think you are better than this!"

Sis, why do you always speculate your sister is so low?

Rindo did not understand Reino's objection at all.

"Hmph! I can tell if you're lying or not just by looking at your face. Reino-chan has an expression of hiding things that she doesn't dare to explain."

He's very precise.

Although he didn't do anything regrettable, this wasn't something he should explain to anyone.

As a result, Reino fell into the predicament of having to avoid his older cousin.

…
