Why Are You So Obsessed With Him?

After watching the other girls head back to the dorms together, Shiwahime returned with her sword in hand, now dressed in her sparring gear.

"Can you open the wall for me?" she asked.

"Sure, but there's a condition this time," I replied.

"A condition?" She tilted her head. "What's this about?"

"You need to answer a question."

"That's fine. Ask away."

"Is the swordsman in there your brother?"

Shiwahime folded her arms, a pensive look crossing her face.

"And what makes you think that? Did someone tell you?"

"I can't disclose my sources," I said with a smirk. "Confidentiality, you know."

"I see. It's Hibiki, isn't it?"

Well, that gave it away.

"Maybe it was Rindou or Fukushima?" she continued. "You've all been investigating that 'Sword Soul Infusion Magic' recently, haven't you?"

"You already knew about that?"
