Hyuga Sho's words seeped into Utatane Koharu's mind bit by bit.
Utatane Koharu's entire body had been irradiated, down to every cell.
She had completely lost her human side.
A tree spirit, a tree demon? A monster?
A similar title seemed very fitting.
Hyuga Sho had never seen a Non-Human Girl before.
"A monster?"
Just one sentence from Hyuga Sho completely broke Utatane Koharu.
"I'm human!!!"
Utatane Koharu screamed hysterically.
Her shrill voice foretold her despair.
"There isn't a single cell in your body that belongs to a human. Although you look human and sound human... are you really human?"
Hyuga Sho's interrogation.
Made Utatane Koharu clutch her head.
As her emotions brewed.
Bit by bit, changes began to occur in Utatane Koharu.
Pfft!
Sharp wooden spikes grew out of Utatane Koharu's body surface.
Pfft! Pfft!
More sharp wooden spikes turned her into a monster covered in Thorns.
She looked just like Uchiha Obito, whom Hyuga Sho had seen covered in spikes.
However, Uchiha Obito was half monster and half human.
But Utatane Koharu's fake body...
Could be said to be completely Non-Human.
"Look... and you still claim to be human."
Hyuga Sho wore an expression that said, "As expected," mixed with a hint of pity.
That expression deeply provoked Utatane Koharu.
"Don't... look at me with that kind of gaze!!!"
She screamed.
She was probably... about to cry.
After all.
According to her age.
Had she actually been born only a few weeks ago? A few months? A few years?
Yet she regarded herself as the real Utatane Koharu.
Her thoughts and worldview had been affected as a result.
How pitiful.
A complete act of role-playing.
"You grew more spikes."
Hyuga Sho's words became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
"I'm going to kill you!!"
She suddenly
