“... SIGH...” Inside Tockerbrot, Sven sighed very deeply. Lud wasn’t there. He was procuring wheat in a neighboring town. Milly, the apprentice, was helping him.

“...SIIIGH...” Sven sighed again. At this moment, Sven and one other person were in the shop.

“Hey, Sven? If you sigh that much, happiness will run away.” That other person was Meitzer, who claimed to be Sven’s father.

“I just don’t have the energy to get angry at you...”

Sven was wondering how she got into this situation. Lud probably considered this an opportunity for her and Meitzer to spend time together. She could have cried for joy.

“Don’t make such a forbidding face. I just wanted to talk with you alone.”

“Oh, now I get it.” Sven suddenly realized the truth. She thought Lud arranged this, but it was Meitzer. Perhaps, Meitzer had told Lud that he could leave because Meitzer would take care of the shop.

“What do you mean when you say you’re my father?”

“Hm?” Meitzer looked curious in response to Sven’s question.

“So you admit I’m your father?”

“I don’t wanna play word games! Just explain... And quickly!”

If Meitzer was a fraud, the explanation was simple. However, he had told Rebecca that she wasn’t his daughter. If he had wanted to sneak into Tockerbrot and harm Sven, he would have no need to make such a distinction.

“If you want to talk, do it fast. We don’t have much time.”

Lud and Milly would return in a few hours. And the shop was open for business. Although it wasn’t a busy time, customers could walk through the door at any time.

“What I mean is we share the same blood. And such a relationship is only true for parents and their children.”

“What?” Meitzer’s reply dashed Sven’s hopes for a simple explanation. “Do you know what you’re saying?!”

Meitzer said they were related by blood. And Sven didn’t have blood.

“You still can’t abandon your behavior from your days as a weapon. Don’t just look at what’s immediately in front of you. You must grasp something deeper.” However, Meitzer spoke to Sven like a parent reasoning with a child. “What exactly is blood? It circulates inside the body and maintains life. So, Sven, what is blood for you?”

“It’s... What?!” Sven scrunched her face at the riddle-like question.

No blood circulated inside her body. However, she did have something like blood. Just as humans have blood to convey oxygen and nutrition around the body, Sven had something that conveyed her power to function. It was the rezanium reactor inside her chest.

“No way! That doesn’t even make sense!!” Sven trembled in disbelief.

They shared the same blood? If that meant what she thought it did, it changed everything.

“Are you a humanoid Hunter Unit too?”

Her rezanium reactor was made of a special ore called rezanite. If Meitzer was also equipped with a rezanium reactor made of rezanite, then it would be as though they shared the same blood. In that case, the man in front of her wasn’t human. But...

Given his exceptional strength, it’s possible!
