Volume 3, Chapter 17 – Hatred

“Eh eh…? What exactly happened just now?”

Faced with this sudden development, Tianyin widened her eyes in confusion.

Because it was just too strange. They had been chatting happily moments ago, the atmosphere felt completely normal.

But in the blink of an eye, it turned into this…

Tianyin really couldn’t understand why Yeluo suddenly said goodbye and left.

“Xiaobingxue, did I say something wrong?”

Confused, Tianyin turned her gaze to Xiaobingxue sitting beside her.

Hearing Tianyin’s question, Xiaobingxue looked at her expressionlessly, then tilted her small face.

“Don’t know.”

Saying she didn’t know was correct. For Xiaobingxue, who didn’t understand much of anything, this was the most natural answer.

However, that only made Tianyin even more troubled.

“Ah ah, what exactly happened just now?”

Although Yeluo had clearly told her the reason for leaving, even if Tianyin was stupid or slow, she could still tell whether Yeluo’s words were true or not.

And without a doubt, what Yeluo said when leaving was simply an excuse to leave.

“Wuu… I can’t figure it out…”

Tianyin could only turn her confusion into appetite and started eating the dessert before her.

And at that moment, a voice that Tianyin was extremely familiar with suddenly rang inside her mind.

「How interesting. Xiaoyin, that half-beast girl just now, I could feel a very familiar emotion inside her. The emotion called Wrath~」

Without a doubt, the only one who could speak to Tianyin like this was the embodiment of the Seven Original Sins of Wrath, Samael.

Even while Tianyin was eating, it didn’t affect her mental conversation with Samael.

『Eh eh, Wrath? Samael, you can’t just say things like that without proof…』

「Proof, pfft…」

In her mind, Samael let out a faint laugh.

「Xiaoyin, I am one of the Seven Original Sins, Wrath. When it comes to sensing the emotion of anger, I’m more authoritative than anyone else in this world~」

Hearing that, Tianyin remembered that although Samael looked like a young girl, she was actually the embodiment of Wrath.

『Wuu, Samael, you mean you sensed anger coming from Sister Yeluo?』

Even though Tianyin didn’t really want to believe it, Samael was using her identity as the Original Sin of Wrath to say it. No matter how unwilling Tianyin was, she had to believe it.

Because as the incarnation of Wrath, Samael could clearly sense the emotion of anger. That was a fact.

「That’s right, Xiaoyin. Anger… that half-beast girl just now didn’t just suddenly become angry, she became extremely angry… the kind of anger close to losing rationality~」

『Eh eh, really?』

Hearing that, Tianyin was shocked.

Rеаⅾ oո KαtRеαⅾinɡСаfe

After all, she truly hadn’t realized it at the time.

「Really, Xiaoyin. If I didn’t sense wrong, it started the moment you said Xiaobingxue was an Undead~」

『Eh eh, Xiaobingxue’s identity as an Undead shouldn’t have anything to do with Sister Yeluo, right?』

Tianyin really didn’t understand.

Xiaobingxue was an Undead, and Yeluo looked like a half-beast no matter how you saw it.

Before today, Xiaobingxue had never met Yeluo, and Yeluo had never met Xiaobingxue.

Their races were completely different, so no matter how she looked at it, the two girls shouldn’t have any hatred between them.

If not, then suddenly becoming angry was way too strange…

No matter how she thought, Tianyin couldn’t figure it out.

「Well, I’m not too sure either. Why did her attitude change immediately the moment she learned Xiaobingxue was an Undead.」

Samael’s voice echoed faintly.

「But Xiaoyin, you know, sometimes in this world, things happen because of coincidences that look like accidents. Even if that half-beast girl had no basis for suddenly becoming angry.」

「But Xiaoyin, you should still have someone keep an eye on her…」

『Wuu, really?』

Even though Samael made sense, Tianyin still didn’t take it seriously in her heart.

After all, even though she had only met Yeluo today, Tianyin had a good impression of this cat-eared girl. They were even friends now.

If she sent someone to secretly watch Yeluo just because of this, that would be too much.

『Well, maybe it’s because the Graveyard’s Undead had caused chaos in the Main World before, so when she heard Xiaobingxue was an Undead, Sister Yeluo subconsciously got angry?』

『If that’s the case, next time I see her, I’ll just explain it to her~』

Tianyin’s way of thinking was sometimes too simple.

Although Samael understood how naïve Tianyin was, she didn’t refute her.

Rather than lecturing, letting someone realize their mistakes and change their way of thinking on their own was true growth.

So with that thought, Samael stopped speaking and fell silent.

……

Meanwhile…

After leaving the Commercial Zone, Yeluo’s anger gradually faded.

But her impression of Eden had completely changed.

Undead.

The girl called “Bingxue” was actually an Undead.

Even though she didn’t want to believe it, the fact remained: this Eden City contained Undead.

A place that even accepted Undead, Eden might not be as simple as it appeared.

Treating half-beasts equally?

A half-beast army?

For a moment, Yeluo even wondered if Tianyin’s appearance had been on purpose.

Using a little girl to make her lower her guard, then guide her into Eden, making her willingly become a member of Eden.

Then, making her devote herself unconditionally to this city……

Various conspiracies flashed through Yeluo’s mind.

The Eden that once looked full of hope and beauty suddenly felt dangerous in every corner.

“I should investigate this city’s military strength and defensive situation first……”

In the end, Yeluo remembered the original purpose of her coming here.

To gather information.

Laughable that just moments ago, she had even been thinking about how to explain to Grinrui that Eden didn’t have many half-beasts.

But now… Yeluo’s thoughts had completely changed.

The two hundred thousand half-beasts in Eden, she would rescue all of them!
