Sweet Smile

Ryu was quite speechless by this point. 

One of the reasons he had such a favorable impression of Selheira was because of her calm mind and gentle temperament. Logically, it should have taken quite a lot for such a person to break down like this. Individuals with her demeanor were exceptionally rare, so much so that the only one Ryu knew who even came close was his own mother. 

However, even Himari Tatsuya was still several steps beneath Selheira in this regard, and that was because the killing edge Ryu's mother had was simply too sharp. Although she could display gentleness even greater than what Selheira had displayed when she was before her husband and her son, when it came to her interactions with others, it might even be more accurate to label her as bloodthirsty and violent.
