Chapter 1977 - Replace (1/2)

”You're playing with a fire, Yuuma.”

Haru smiled bitterly, and of course, he knew what Yuuma was thinking. Although it could be called a long and sleepless night, they didn't have sex. Rather, there were things that both of them needed to solve first, but in truth, if he wanted to push her down, he was sure that this girl would accept him.

”Hmph! Who told you to tease me first?”

Yuuma knew that if Haru really pushed her, she would accept him, or rather, she didn't hate the idea of being pushed by him on the bed, but this time, there was a reason why she came to him.

Therefore, when Yuuma rolled her eyes, Haru smiled, and the ambiguous atmosphere between them disappeared. They stopped, played around, and started to talk about business.

”So what should I call you? Yuuma? Or a witch?” Looking at Yuuma, his tone was quite heavy.

”Then how should I call you? Haru? Or is His Majesty the fourth primogenitor?” Without answering his question, Yuuma asked him instead.

The two of them then were in silence for a while, and they were just staring at each other, and neither of them opened their mouths to break the silence. It wasn't until after a while that their eyes showed a smile, and they both opened their mouths and laughed out loud.

Haru looked at Yuuma with a smile and said, ”I didn't expect the friend that I'd just made today to be a witch.”

With this smile, the tense and solemn atmosphere between them disappeared without a trace. After all, the two weren't enemies, so naturally, it was better to be relaxed with each other.

”That's true. I also didn't expect the friend that I'd just made today to be the fourth primogenitor. With such a strong friend, I don't need to fear anything.”

Hearing his relaxed and playful tone, Yuuma also let go of her worries. After all, she thought that he hadn't seen her true intention yet. At best, her identity as a witch had been known, so everything was still under control.

”Even if I'm the fourth primogenitor, it doesn't mean that I'm omnipotent. Or rather, Yuuma, if you mention that you're the daughter of Aya Tokoyogi, no one will cause you trouble, right? After all, your mother is the legendary witch.”

”What?!”

Yuuma was dumbfounded, and she never expected Haru to expose her identity directly. Even more unexpectedly, he knew that she was the daughter of Aya Tokoyogi!

Are you kidding me?

The fact that Yuuma was the daughter of Aya Tokoyogo was only known by a few people, and her identity was very well protected, even in the outside world, no one knew her identity as a witch, but how could Haru who stayed on the Itogami island all the time knew everything so clearly?

Yuuma was full of shock, confusion, and perplexity.

”What? Did I say something wrong?” Compared to Yuuma's shock and puzzlement, Haru's reaction was calm. He even exposed her with a smile on his face as if trying to tease her.

”How - How did you know?” Her identity had been exposed by Haru, so it was impossible to deny them, but Yuuma couldn't accept it, wondering how her identity had been exposed? After all, it was too amazing, right? She was wondering whether there was a prophet or an oracle that had exposed her identity to him, considering he was so rich and with the power of money, there were a lot of things that he could do.

”I have my own intelligence channel. Not only do I know about your identity, but I also know your purpose in Itogami island. You want to rescue your mother from the legendary prison, right? By using my power, that's.”

”........”

Yuuma felt all the power on her body drained, and she knew that everything had been exposed by him, so what could she say now?

The plan hadn't started yet, but it was already over.

Yuuma was sad since she couldn't complete her mission and she couldn't save her mother, but she didn't know why. Knowing that her plan had failed, she felt relief in her heart.
