"Master, I'm back." Sakuya appeared in the living room, holding the hands of two Little Lolis.
"Good work, Sakuya. Go get ready; we'll be leaving in a bit." Fujino smiled at Sakuya.
"Yes, Master." Sakuya nodded and disappeared, leaving behind two somewhat uneasy Little Lolis and Fujino.
Looking at the two uneasy girls, Fujino stood up and walked over to them. She crouched down, placing her hands on their shoulders. "Alright, you'll be living here from now on. Don't worry, just follow Sakuya from now on."
The two Little Lolis looked at Fujino's gentle face, glanced at each other, and finally nodded.
One of the girls with amber eyes looked at Fujino's gentle expression and said softly, "Thank you, big sister. My name is Kohaku, and this is my sister, Hisui."
"Yes, I know." Fujino smiled and patted the heads of Kohaku and Hisui. "Just stay here comfortably. As long as I'm here, no one will abandon you again."
"Mhm!" Both Kohaku and Hisui nodded vigorously with smiles.
"Alright, go find Sister Sakuya. She's upstairs. We have things to do in a bit," Fujino said.
"Yes," the two Little Lolis replied.
After the two girls left, the smile on Fujino's face vanished.
"The Tohno Clan no longer needs to exist. Makihisa Tohno, I will take good care of your daughter."
A long blade, entirely blood-red, appeared in Sakuya's hand. After what happened before, Fujino didn't let even a hint of her aura leak out this time.
yubashiri—no, it would be more appropriate to call yubashiri 'blood slice' now. Having fused with all the power of the darkin scythe, blood slice's power was no weaker than some EX-rank Noble Phantasms and possessed many other powers.
"Let the Tohno Clan become nourishment for blood slice." With a wanton smile, Fujino disappeared from the living room.
At the Tohno residence, Makihisa Tohno sat irritably in his chair. The people from the Fujou Clan he had targeted had actually been bought by someone else first. Most importantly, he didn't even know who did it; all the people involved in the transaction had disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it!"
Makihisa Tohno shouted in frustration. Having lost the Fujō twins he had originally planned for, his heart was now extremely unsettled.
"Damn it, the Inversion Impulse is becoming more and more obvious. Who is it?! Who dared to ruin my plans!"
"It's me." Fujino appeared before Makihisa Tohno. Before he could even see her face clearly, the blade in Fujino's hand swept across his neck.
Silence. A deathly silence. Under Fujino's casual strike, even sound itself was sliced apart.
"So fragile." Looking at Makihisa Tohno, who had fallen in the room with his eyes still wide open, Fujino directly stabbed yubashiri into his corpse. The blood-red blood slice seemed to come to life; the red on the blade began to flow, and Makihisa Tohno's body instantly turned into a dried corpse before crumbling into a pile of powder.
"Is the power in the blood too weak? It didn't improve at all." Fujino wasn't disappointed; after all, it was expected.
Absorbing the blood of others was one of blood slice's abilities. The stronger the blood absorbed, the more blood slice's power would increase, and it could evolve once it reached a certain level.
As for its other abilities, it could turn the absorbed blood into pure life force to nourish oneself or give to others.
"Alright, time to go see Akiha." Fujino smiled and swung yubashiri again, slicing the entire wall into two sections.
A few minutes later, the massive Tohno estate instantly turned into countless fragments. It collapsed with a deafening roar, immediately drawing the attention of people nearby and sparking a flurry of discussion.
Meanwhile, Fujino appeared on a tree in the distance, with a young girl, Akiha, tucked under her arm.
"You villain! Let me go!"
Akiha struggled desperately with all her might, her small face flushed red, but it was to no avail.
"Keep making noise and I'll deal with you right now," Fujino said flatly.
"You..." Akiha wanted to say something more, but meeting Fujino's cold purple eyes, her body trembled and she immediately shut her mouth.
"What a pity." Fujino whispered softly. She had thought Akiha would continue to make a fuss so she could take action. Although Fujino could still do something even if she didn't make a fuss, it would lose the fun... "Are they here already? Whatever, they'll find their way here anyway." With a hand chop to knock Akiha unconscious, Fujino's figure disappeared once more.
On the other side, among the crowd gathered to watch the collapse of the Tohno house, a blonde girl in a corner stared blankly at the tree where Fujino had just been.
