"I refuse to answer your question..." Yukino Yukinoshita said coldly after grumbling inwardly. This was only because she was dealing with Sogo Doma—if it had been anyone else, the second daughter might well have called the police already!
"Refuse?" But that gave someone plenty to say. "Doesn't that mean you already have an answer in your heart?"
Yukino Yukinoshita: (#^_^)
No, she didn't!
Having children was far too distant a matter for her...
"Since you already have an answer..." Sogo Doma continued, "then I can't be bothered asking anymore. Still, if you want to surpass your mother, then you'll probably make the same choice she did. Doesn't that mean dragon slayers are destined to become dragons?"
"Wait a minute!" Yukino Yukinoshita said. "What the hell is this dragon nonsense? Are you saying my mother is a dragon?"
"Uh..." Sogo Doma liked courting death, but even he felt it was not quite appropriate to outright admit to calling someone's mother a dragon in front of her daughter. So he said, "What if I said I was merely voicing the image of your mother that exists in your heart..."
"I don't see her that way!" Whether it was an illusion or not, Yukino Yukinoshita actually seemed a little flustered. "Stop spouting nonsense. How could I possibly..."
"Oh?" Sogo Doma interrupted her again. "Yukinoshita, didn't you just ask me to save you..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."
Bastard. Th-that had just been an unconscious reaction. Damn it, if she'd known, she would have forced herself to hold it in! This bastard did not understand atmosphere at all. Damn it, nobody else would bring something like that up!
"Here's the question..." Before the second daughter could say anything, Sogo Doma said, "What kind of situation calls for saving someone? Naturally, it's when they're in danger!"
"..."
