Chapter 20
Meanwhile in America… "Hchiu!" "Chris, are you alright?" "Yeah…Maybe just the weather."…
Chapter 19- Bedroom's talk
Back to Sky and Maria, Sky and Maria are sitting on a bed together… "Now I think of it, what you did today is really ruthless." "Eh?" "I mean that life force incidence. It is quite dangerous to take any action without any good planning especially after getting that confirmation from Hangan's book of life and death." "I'm sorry, but you know that I just can't bear to see anyone that might have been a victim of some random ridicule believes, I know how bad it feels when you been judge by those stupid believes…when you almost don't know what you did wrong…I just can't…" …
Without any warning, Sky softly patted Maria's head and say: "Baka, of course I know, and I didn't tell you
"First, put aside how such an old lady can use a magic this strong that is able to harm an immortal like you, this type of magic is used to absorb the life force of people who are near to the magic source. However, within the three cases mentioned by the boy, only one case is relevant to this magic, which is the death of the mother, who died from a very minor fall in the house, instead of she dies because of the fall, we could say that she might have died before she falls." "Hmm…I get what you said, since the uncle of the boy dies in a car accident which is clearly outside of the house, so we can conclude that his death is not related to that magic. While for the sister, I don't think that magic is even capable of causing her to get that sickness." "Exactly. However, one thing I'm concern about is that, the book of life and death does show both the mother and uncle of the boy died prematurely. I don't know what caused the girl to suddenly getting that sickness, but I'm sure this series of 'bad luck' is not just a pure coincidence." "So, what's your opinion on this?" "My hypothesis is that there is more than one type of magic is used in this case. And I can boldly say that, this is not anything that can or will be done by a normal old lady." "But the book of life and death does show that she got her life extended." "Indeed. And this is what we are going to investigate." "We?" "Yes, you and me." "Aww~~ Darling~~You are so sweet." "Stop that."
Meanwhile, in America… "Ah…This kitten is so adorable, can I bring her home?" "Uh…No, Chris. Have you forgot the purpose we are here?" "Nope." "Then please put the kitten down." "No." "Are you bringing her with us?" "Yes, her name is Marumaru. I'm sure Byako will be happy about this." "…"
Back to Sky and Maria… "Are you sure it's a good idea to let Chris-chan go to America just like that? With his condition right now…" "I'm sure you know him quite well, don't you? Knowing how stubborn he is. Anyway, I think he will be okay with Seito-kun. Right now, we need to solve your quest alright." "Does that mean you will be skipping school tomorrow?" "Nope! I'll skip for the next entire week, I can't survive in school without Chris." "Hahaha…"
The next day… "So, this is the house?" "Yes." "I can feel the magic even at this distance, I wonder who is the one that is able to place such a strong magic at this place…Hmm? Naito? I wonder where I heard this surname before…"
Then an old lady came out of the house, Sky and Blaze (Maria) quickly hide behind a car. Sky looks a bit astonished when he saw the lady. "Blaze, are you saying that this lady is the one that said to be feeding on her own family's life?" "Probably is she. You know her?" "Yes."
