Punishments

Everyone turned their attention to the old man laughing without caring for everyone else's worries.

"あなたは本当にあの男の子が好きなんでしょうね," The old man said, causing Yuko's face to light up red. "分かった,私はその少年を殺さない."

"But grandfather-," The girl protested only to stop when he lifted his hand.

"あなたは私の唯一の孫娘ではありません.私はあなたがあなたの妹の要求を私と同じように尊重して扱うことを期待しています." The old man said, silencing her. "しかし,何らかの罰が必要であるということは正しいです"

"Do you know what they're saying?" Jayce whispered to Edward.

"No clue," He replied. "Yuko?"

"Huh?" Yuko responded, snapping out of her thoughts.

The girl cleared her throat, regaining the trio's attention. "Due to my grandfather's generosity, you will no longer be executed."

Edward and Yuko sighed in relief as they stored their weapons in their rings.
