Chapter 256: His Laughter

Aventine formed a barrier and launched us deep into the dreamscape as she stayed back to fend off the multiple Demosnia.

"Will she be alright?" Koyuki asked, furrowing her brow.

I took a deep breath. "Surely, she knows when to cut her loses."

"She does hail from divine blood, so probably," Yukito said.

"Uh, we technically do too," Rose mumbled.

"Oh, right. She's our ancestor." He glanced at me. "Say, are you related to Aventine too? You have the same purple eyes as Dad, Rose, and her."

"Well, she is an ancestor. Or so I've heard. But as far as I know there weren't any additional juggernauts to my bloodline. You could say that divine blood has been very watered down."

He hummed and glanced at his sister. "Well, until Rose!"

I turned away, feeling my face heat up a little as I recalled Anis.

"True, but that was never my intention."

Yuki grinned. "Aww. You really love my little sis, don't you?"
