Yes!
It was as if she had suddenly realized what she had just done!
She jolted awake.
Her pretty face instantly flushed crimson.
Like a little crab drunk on wine.
Her head spun woozily.
Her lips trembled as she stammered, "Abah, abah..."
"Th-this...! N-no, it's not... I mean... ugh~"
Furina desperately tried to explain herself.
But the more she tried to explain, the more flustered she became. Her embarrassed heart seemed to have accidentally given itself away, exposing some little secret. Or perhaps she had suddenly realized something and finally understood what had happened! Ahhhhhhh, whatever, it didn't matter anymore!
She had accidentally gone and committed a huge blunder...
"I...I..." Furina was still stammering.
Anna's gaze grew stranger and stranger.
Her delicate little face displayed a peculiar expression, as though she were meeting Furina for the first time. It left Furina utterly flustered.
But that wasn't the key point, was it?!
Little Griseo's gaze, Little Griseo's silence...
The more Little Griseo said nothing, the more terrified Furina became!
It was like a child who had suddenly realized she had done something wrong!
Ugh... I'm sorry! I'm sorry, sorry, sorry... I'm so sorry! I...
I got carried away!
All she could say was this:
What she had accidentally blurted out just now... was indeed her true feelings.
After laying down the burden of being the Hydro Archon, she had been able to become herself again. Just like Furina, her centuries-old obsession and long-held wish had finally come true. Everything she saw and did felt so wonderful, so joyful!
And then...
She felt as though her whole body had begun to float!
Light as a feather...
She had actually become able to say something like that out loud!
Sure enough!
*I-I-I-I-I-I... I should probably kill myself to atone for my sins, shouldn't
