Vol 11 Prologue (2/2)

With this, the probability of Mononobe Yuu being the ninth counterdragon had increased infinitely

”Previously, when I attee That was probably an instinctive act as Neun As the ninth counterdragon, that person already knehat he should be doing”

The excite before aher to deliver her words in a stiff voice

”What are you talking about? Are you speaking of Nii-san?”

Meanwhile, Mitsuki asked in confusion

Seeing Mononobe completely unaware of her own position, Vritra was overcome with intense irritation

Hence, she voiced her speculation with hostility

”Indeed—That person is protecting thee in order to obey a counterdragon's instinct 'Tis because the ninth cala destruction to the world, is within you”

”Eh?”

Mononobe Mitsuki froze after leaking out a quiet voice of questioning

Vritra did not knohat she was thinking or had understood

However—the effect Vritra's words had on her was far stronger than even Vritra expected

Mononobe Mitsuki's expression froze, her pupils contracted forcefully while her body started tre from the extremities

—Curses, was it too great a shock?

Vritra regretted allowing her own feelings to drive her into cornering Mononobe Mitsuki However, time could not be rewound

If only I had not allowed myself to be ruled by emotion

Vritra scolded herself in anguish at the thought of her mistake

Compared to her former Godlike existence, this was utterly ridiculous

Vritra concluded she should summon Mononobe Yuu as Neun However, before she could take action, Mononobe Mitsuki's condition changed again

The tre in her limbs swifly subsided The fear and surprise on her face vanished She spaced out, looking to the sky

”—Hey?”

When Vritra called out in trepidation, Mononobe Mitsuki looked at her in puzzlement

It sounded like she was unaware of the situation Vritra felt confused

”What happened? Thou dost not remember?”

”Remember? What?”

Mitsuki tilted her head and asked with honest ignorance

”Nay—I am mistaken Thou needst not pay it any mind”

Vritra shook her head and returned to the room from the balcony Mononobe Mitsuki watched in surprise to see Vritra off

”—What happened? Be that as it may I must not provoke her any further”

Sitting on the sofa, glancing sideways at Mitsuki in the balcony, Vritra sighed

Everything was so incomprehensible Furthermore, these matters were impossible for her to handle in her current state

Mee?

It was possible that this was derived from Neun's authority

Even after using Hraesvelgr's authority, Mononobe Yuu could still turn back into human

Supposing change would not bring about a bad outco Mononobe Yuu of her speculations necessitated proper ti

There is no probleiven the current state of affairs The ideal course of action is to observe Mononobe Mitsuki's condition for the ti a ate how the current situation came to be

After deep contemplation, Vritra reached this conclusion

Inforin with Mononobe Mitsuki's brother, Mononobe Yuu It was necessary to get close to hi else but to elucidate Neun's powers thoroughly

However, this raised an issue

Vritra looked towards the bathroo

There was never a moment's peace around Mononobe Yuu She had to create a chance for a confidential discussion

—Furthermore, he probably does not trustthe situation clearly, he would probably maintain silence out of wariness
