Besides, Hiyamaru was hers anyway!
"Thank you, Big Sister!"
Hiyamaru hurriedly accepted the Sessho-seki and quickly thanked her.
"Huh! It disappeared..."
The moment Hiyamaru got the Sessho-seki, it vanished, turning directly into a stream of air that burrowed into her body.
Staring at the Sessho-seki that had disappeared from her hands, Hiyamaru's adorable eyes flickered with confusion. She had no idea why it had suddenly vanished.
