Chapter 48: Mirage
"Dense."
After receiving the phone call from Furuya Haruhisa thanking her for the shape-shifting talismans she gave him, Tachikawa Mei muttered the word in a low voice towards the phone which had disconnected. She put the phone in her pocket and immediately went inside a stall in the women’s restroom to get some time alone.
"But how troublesome. I can’t believe that both the "hands" and the "eyes" managed to get together in one place and take down a sixth-rank monster."
Mei grumbled and sighed.
Although she had issued a gag order to the exorcists present at the scene as quickly as possible, it was difficult to say that it had been much of a success given all the rumors that were already spreading throughout the school. Although most exorcists who weren’t high up in the Society could probably be fooled, what were the Twelve Heavenly Masters and the heads of the "Nine Old Families", both of whom were still questioning the disappearance of the seventh-rank spirit two years ago, going to think about this matter…? It seemed like they were planning to bring up the troubling issue of "falling to the ground" at the urgently convened God Clan Conference so she hoped that this wasn’t going to end up turning into something troublesome.
"For goodness sake… his situation was already complicated and now he tells me he can actually hear the voice, and on top of that, gained the incomprehensible ability to cause earthquakes… although there doesn’t seem to be any sign of encroachment occurring in his hands, this isn’t a good sign at all."
There were too many things to be worried about and she had no idea what was the right thing to do right now.
Her brain normally absorbed and organized everything in a calm and collected manner. However, she felt like she was in a constant state of disarray lately.
The cause of this was the Soya Family’s daughter who had suddenly teamed up with Furuya Haruhisa.
Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that there would be a day when Furuya Haruhisa would tell others about his ability, about his past, and even use his ability in front of so many people.
"Even though I was the only one who was special to Furuya-kun until now…"
Tachikawa Mei placed her hand on the restroom stall’s door with a big sigh.
Immediately, the fictional Tachikawa Mei’s figure distorted like a mirage and her original form quickly took shape.
The one who came out of the restroom stall after shedding her disguise as "Tachikawa Mei" was Furuya Haruhisa’s childhood friend.
Kuzunoha Kaede walked away briskly with an icy expression on her face.
