Shiori: You Bought Her Off with One Lollipop! Are You Even My Sister?! / Magical Power Runs Amok! A Bunch of Fakes Have Appeared!

Chu Chen: "..."

What else could I say...? Left speechless by Chu Chen's words, Chu Chen could only silently change the subject. Don't forget, there was still a minor at home.

Of course, if Yoshino's age were calculated properly, she was probably nearly forty already.

The main reason was that these Spirits had fused with Spirit Crystallization, so their appearances had basically remained at the age they had been back then.

As Kurumi made her deductions, she found herself speechless at her own guess.
