She felt that Su Chen would never have said those things without a reason, so there had to be something in them she had not fully understood.
The first sentence was easy to understand: he wanted Kanao Tsuyuri to practice her swordsmanship. Su Chen must have taught her something special last night.
But the second...
Suddenly, Shinobu Kocho's expression changed, and she immediately ran toward the backyard.
The girl's figure danced gracefully, and in a few leaps, she went from the ward to the Butterfly Mansion's training yard.
The place was still a mess. Judging by the uneven craters in the ground and the neatly severed trees around them, a fierce battle had clearly taken place here last night.
"Su Chen, just what did you do while I was away?" Shinobu Kocho's eyes grew moist.
Looking at the battlefield before her, Shinobu Kocho could almost imagine the brutal battle Su Chen had endured.
While she had been away yesterday, Su Chen had risked his life to protect the Butterfly Mansion.
Before, Shinobu Kocho had cared only about her older sister. Now, the name Su Chen had found a place in the girl's heart as well.
Shinobu Kocho walked slowly across the grounds. Suddenly, she noticed bloodstains on the ground.
Understanding dawned on her. Was this the blood of an Upper Rank Demon?
Shinobu Kocho turned to look around and discovered some severed demon limbs nearby.
Now Shinobu Kocho understood everything. Su Chen had been telling her to use the blood of Upper Rank Demons to develop a poison that could fight them!
Su Chen had visited her research room before. With his perceptiveness, he could naturally work out what she needed for her research.
But Su Chen, why did you always think of me in everything you did?
Shinobu Kocho
