No wonder. After all, I rarely showed my face at the Lion King Organization. Aside from the two little girls, Yukina and Akane, only the other two of the "Three Saints" and some of the Lion King Organization's higher-ups knew what I looked like.
And Sayaka Kourusaka, who had been studying in the Forest of Takagami all this time, naturally had no idea.
So when Sayaka Kourusaka saw Yukina living in the same house as me and going to school with me every day, she naturally assumed Yukina had been seduced and deceived by me.
Come to think of it, I remembered that Sayaka Kourusaka seemed to have suffered from androphobia since childhood.
Before she was sold to the Lion King Organization, her father had frequently abused her. That was why she had developed a fear of men.
Just as Luo Mio was pondering this...
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
Sayaka Kourusaka glared viciously at Luo Mio while continuously muttering those words under her breath.
Strands of black aura began to rise from the edges of Sayaka Kourusaka's silhouette, making her look as though she had fallen into darkness.
The light vanished from her pupils. Her cold, hollow eyes stared blankly at Luo Mio as she continued to mutter.
Fine. It looked like there was no way to calmly explain things to this girl.
In the next instant, Sayaka Kourusaka suddenly burst forward. She shot toward Luo Mio like a bullet, the massive silver blade in her hand seeming to cleave through space itself as it let out an unusual cutting cry and came crashing down on him.
Luo Mio calmly sidestepped the attack.
Seeing him evade so easily, Sayaka Kourusaka gripped the huge silver sword in both hands and relentlessly swung and hacked at him.
