“Could you just hand the girl over?”

The mysterious woman pointed at Kii with her empty left hand.

“You want Kii-chan?”

Koutarou carefully watched his surroundings as he answered. He couldn’t let his guard down for a moment.

“Yes, that’s right. What I want is that girl.”

As she said that, her lips peeking out from under the hood curled into a smile. But there was no hint of warmth or friendliness in it. If anything, it was freezing cold.

“I don’t care much for fighting, personally. If I can help it, I’d prefer not to tangle with you, boy. You feel the same, right?”

They were gentle words on the surface, but it was obviously a threat. It was an old trick to intimidate someone after showing off a bit of skill. It put pressure on the opponent to back down knowing a fight likely wouldn’t go in their favor.

“Onii-chan...”

Kii grabbed Koutarou’s sleeve. That alone told him she was afraid of this woman, whoever she was. It was clear she didn’t want to go with her. Koutarou touched Kii’s hand to reassure her and glared at the woman.

“What are you planning on doing with her? It doesn’t look like you’re here to take her back home.”

If she had just come to pick up Kii, there would have been no reason to attack Koutarou. She’d struck him with enough force to take off his arm if it hadn’t been for the bracelet. She was quite clearly hostile.

“It will be easier for you to hand her over if you don’t ask questions, boy.”

“So you really are planning on killing her?”

Koutarou could tell what she really meant based on what she was saying and how she was acting.

“I don’t recall saying anything about that.”

“What a barefaced lie...”

“I just want finish my job without any trouble. There’s no ulterior motive.”

Seeing Koutarou’s reaction, the mysterious woman smiled again. That smile told Koutarou everything he needed to know. This woman was after Kii’s life. It didn’t look like she was planning on killing her here, but that was her ultimate goal. Knowing that much, Koutarou adamantly put his foot down.

“I won’t let you have her. She’s my precious friend!”

“Onii-chan!”

Kii’s expression lit up. She knew that their current situation was bad, but she was happy Koutarou hadn’t abandoned her. And she was also happy to hear him call her his friend.

“My, you’re so suspecting. Honestly, I never said anything about killing her.”

The mysterious woman, still smiling, took her scythe in both hands and raised it high. She had expected that response from Koutarou based on his reactions this far. It seemed she wasn’t as much of a pacifist as she’d made herself out to be. It had been her intention to fight him from the start. Her words were just a trick to try and get a sense of his abilities.

I’m outnumbered and unarmed. And my opponent is a mystery...

Koutarou took a stance himself and clicked his tongue in his mind. The woman had called Koutarou scary before, but he was the one who was really scared.
