Part 5

Alexia took the lead in explaining the plan to everyone.

Some students protested, “You’re abandoning us!” but there was no time to persuade them.

The six of them went out through the back door of the auditorium to avoid being noticed. Claire and Alexia quickly took care of any ghosts that might be an obstacle and hurried onward.

Meanwhile, Christina was observing Suzuki without being noticed.

He stands calmly in the white fog against the ghosts that could attack him from anywhere.

“…… It’s strange.”

Christina muttered in a voice so small that no one could hear her.

Her relationship with Suzuki was that of a distant relative and classmate. They were neither more nor less than that, and did not have that deep a relationship.

But still, she knew what kind of person Suzuki was.

He would not have been the kind of person who could behave with dignity in front of Princess Alexia or stand calmly in a real battle.

It was as if he was a different person…… He had changed so much that she could not help but describe him as such.

However, Suzuki’s face and voice are definitely his.

“…… Perhaps, he was hiding his ability.”


To avoid getting involved in a dispute between the main family and a branch family. It is a thin motive, but it is not unlikely.

“…… Effects of artifacts or drugs”

This is the only other thing she could think of, but it still doesn’t feel right.

But there is no doubt that something has changed in him.

If Suzuki is a harm to the main family, Christina will not hesitate to dispose of him.

That’s what Christina thought —— then.

“It’s dangerous.”

Gently, Christina’s shoulder was pulled.

Shortly after, a ghost sword passes in front of Cristina.

“This!”

She reacted as expected, slashing through the ghosts with her sword.

The ghost shatters and disappears.

“As expected of Christina nee-san.”

“…… You saved me.”

She said this to Suzuki. If he hadn’t been there, she might have received a hit.

“As a branch family, I did what I had to do.”

He said it quietly and hurried on. She could not read anything from his back.
