Chapter 260

Maya's sudden outburst of anger caused Yotsuba Miya to momentarily lose her composure.

It was as if she had been pulled back to that summer of 2062, back to when she was twelve years old!

The cicadas' chirping from that day seemed to echo in her ears again. Just like today, the weather was extremely hot, but she couldn't feel any heat at all; instead, she felt only a chill throughout her body.

Just like now, Maya's Maya gaze pierced deep into her heart that day.

The same goes for what they say.

He killed Maya with his own hands...

She transformed all her joys and sorrows into knowledge, Maya, with calm anger, recounted how she had killed her with her own hands.

But the next second, she was forced to break free from that sense of déjà vu.

Just then, a huge and terrifying Psions wave suddenly filled the area around Maya, who was sitting in the armchair in front of him.

That Psions was no less than... no, to be precise, it far exceeded that of a strategic-level mage; it was a terrifyingly powerful force!

Even though it was Yotsuba Miya, as her older sister, she couldn't help but shrink her pupils upon seeing it.

"Since you want to kill me a second time, then let me kill you once too, and let me personally send you back to your grave. That way, we'll be even!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the pitch-black "night" quickly spread and enveloped the study.

Above, below, left, and right, all seemed to be endless night, a night capable of swallowing everything, where every inverted star shone so brightly and eerily.

She knew very well that this was her younger sister, Maya Yotsuba, whose signature magic, the "Meteor Shower of aggregation magic, was known as the Demon King of the Far East!

Only Maya Yotsuba in the entire world can use it; it's as terrifying as a domain barrier, no less powerful than strategic-level magic!

Under this night sky, Maya Yotsuba is the one and only Queen of the Night!

But--

She had no intention of surrendering easily.

She slowly closed her eyes in the Yotsuba Miya, her delicate lips parting slightly as she spoke:

"Alright, my sister... Maya. Let's settle our differences and all the grudges that have existed between us since 2062!"

As she spoke, she suddenly opened her eyes.

An eerie red light emanated from his wine-red pupils.

A chilling aura filled the air, and the shadowy figure that appeared behind them seemed to tear through the night, like the River of Oblivion from the underworld piercing the night sky!

"Hahaha, that's more like it, my dear sister, Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya!!"

Feeling the chill rushing towards her, enough to freeze her soul, Maya lost her former elegance and allure.

For the first time, he burst into unrestrained, manic laughter!

At the same time.

Just as the Yotsuba Clan sisters were about to have a full-blown fight in the study.

Mahiro was sitting on the sofa in the living room.

"Master, please use it."

"Mahiro, please have some tea."

Mine and Minami served each other a cup of tea at almost the same time, and they were even the exact same kind.

Seeing that the other had brought out the same dish that they were so proud of, the two glared at each other once again.

Neither side was willing to admit defeat, and neither side was willing to back down even an inch.

"Alright, alright, put them all down."

What can be done in this situation?

Mahiro had no choice but to accept it all, picking up the two cups of tea and tasting them one by one, while also praising the two of them.

This finally calmed the dispute between the two maids.

On the sofa nearby, the Seitenshi couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle at the sight.

Seeing Mahiro setback is no easy feat.

"What are you laughing at? You're not exactly offering to drink with me, are you?"

"No way! This is the bitter fruit you brewed yourself, Mr. Mahiro. You should savor it carefully. I suggest you write a reflection of a few thousand words, that would be even better."

"The Seitenshi said playfully."

Since arriving here, the Seitenshi has become more and more lively, as if she has rediscovered the nature of a young girl, but she has also encountered many new problems.

She went from being a gentle, elegant, and pure girl to someone who enjoys joking around.

It was as if she had fallen from a pure saint into the mortal world.

Oh no, to be precise, from the moment the Seitenshi stepped into Arcadia, this saintess was already tainted by his colors.

"By the way... who was that lady who accompanied you today?"

The Seitenshi suddenly changed the subject.

The one she was referring to was Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya.

"She's my aunt, her name is Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya."

"Yotsuba Clan Yotsuba Miya... is she Mother's sister?"

"Puff--"

I had just taken a sip of tea when I heard the strange title "Seitenshi" and immediately spat it out.

"What's wrong?"

"Cough cough... It's nothing... It's nothing..."

Unexpectedly, even the seemingly indifferent and Seitenshi started calling her "Mom."

How could the wise and intelligent Seitenshi not see what he was thinking? But she didn't point it out; she simply waited quietly for his answer.

"Hmm, are they sisters, or the older sister? What's wrong?"

"I sense that they don't get along very well. Is it really okay for us to just stand guard outside like this?"

The Seitenshi sensed the magical fluctuations emanating from the study and asked with some concern.

"Well, let them vent. Their issue is a legacy problem."

Mahiro picked up his teacup and took a sip, his expression nonchalant.

But seeing the Seitenshi's worried expression, he eventually offered a brief explanation.

The two sisters' past feud, and recent events.

The Seitenshi's expression shifted from surprise and astonishment to regret, but at the end it became strange, and he looked at him with some suspicion.

"... Mr Mahiro, you didn't do anything strange to Ms. Yotsuba Miya, did you?"

"Shouldn't you be surprised by the fact that the dead can come back to life?"

"Mr. Mahiro, you didn't do anything strange to Ms. Yotsuba Miya, did you?"

The Seitenshi repeated the question he had asked earlier, a kind smile now on his face.

"Okay, okay, why ask such an obvious question? Isn't it obvious?" Mahiro shrugged and said indifferently.

"As expected... Mr. Mahiro, you really are..."

The Seitenshi looked at him speechlessly, his fingertips, clad in white silk gloves, lightly touching his forehead, looking quite troubled.

"You could be a good person, why do you always pretend to be a scumbag? Aren't we enough for you?"

"Then you've misjudged me~" Mahiro said with a grin, "I'm a genuine scumbag, an absolute villain."

He never wanted to be a good person.

The main idea is to do whatever you want, whatever you think.

As long as I lack morality, no one can morally blackmail me!

Although the Seitenshi had a good explanation for this, seeing Mahiro's current state, she didn't intend to argue with him. Instead, she said:

"Now I understand why Mother spoke with Ms. Yotsuba Miya alone... She probably noticed the unusual relationship between you and Ms. Yotsuba Miya."

You should know that your mother actually cares about you a lot and is very sensitive about things concerning you.

"Ha..."

Mahiro smiled but didn't say anything.

He simply picked up the teacup and sipped it silently.

He declined to comment on Maya's matter.

However, in the next second, a strong tremor suddenly struck.

Boom!

A deafening explosion came from the study, followed by a powerful shockwave.

"Phalanx"

A hemispherical protective shield was placed upside down around the sofa in the living room.

The shockwave formed by magic burst through the door, destroyed the house, and slammed heavily against the barrier.

Seeing this, Mahiro calmly continued drinking his tea, seemingly unconcerned, as if nothing had happened.

"What happened? What happened...?!"

Upon returning from patrol, the group, who were resting at the mansion, heard the commotion and immediately rushed over.

When he saw what was in front of him, he was completely stunned.

What on earth happened here?!

The Yotsuba Family mansion, which had just been built not long ago, was now razed to the ground. The ground was covered with traces of frost, and the frost was riddled with holes of all sizes, as if it had been violently struck by something.

Two women, who looked alike but were covered in soot, were now facing each other, panting heavily.

As for Yotsuba Mahiro, he was currently sitting there safely watching the show with Mine Seitenshi Mine, and Minami and the others.

"Mahiro, what exactly is this...?"

Cornelia approached Mahiro and asked him what had happened.

But Mahiro waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, just a friendly exchange between sisters, there's no problem."

"Ha..."

Can this really be called a friendly exchange?

If the commotion were any bigger, it wouldn't just be them coming; probably the whole island would come.

Mahiro ignored Cornelia's inner grumbling, put down his teacup, stood up, and walked toward the two people who were bending over and confronting each other.

"... What's wrong, sister? Is it already too late?"

"... Maya, just how far are you going to go?!"

"I've already said it, my dear sister, I will personally send you back to your grave!"

The love-hate relationship between these two sisters completely stunned everyone.

So much so that even the Akame and Kurome couldn't help but exchange bewildered glances.

They thought the two sisters were really strange; shouldn't sisters love and care for each other?

Anyway, if it were them, they would never turn against their dear older sister (younger sister).

Akame and Kurome thought so.

However, just as the two sisters finished their magical contest and were about to test their fists, pulling hair and slapping each other, Mahiro intervened between them.

"Alright, you two, have you had enough?"

"... Mahiro."

With his intervention, the madness in Maya's eyes vanished instantly.
