The sun had now truly reached its limit.
Scorching...!!
Right above the heads of the three humans.
The blazing heat reflected off all three of them.
Their hair...
Now looked completely dry at first glance,
but on the other hand, sweat was pouring heavily down their foreheads.
Yet...
None of them moved at all.
Silent... too silent.
Still standing in the same spot since early morning.
Then, a movement of the lips came from Hero Tina. With her jaw still tensed, she finally spoke.
Hero Anna...
I...
I used Hero Anna!!!
Those words truly came out of Hero Tina's mouth!!
Now she was finally speaking the truth with her own lips...
It even shocked herself, and now her lips were trembling.
Then Hero Tina fell silent, looking at the two humans watching her.
Hearing that, both Rena and Hero Claire were startled!!!
Neither of them reacted immediately—they were just in shock.
Hero Claire, with all her assumptions, began staring sharply at Hero Tina.
Rena, biting her finger, both fists clenched inside her large robe pockets, said.
Don't stop..!!!
Hearing that, Hero Tina tried to hold back her left hand, which wanted to cover her mouth, then muttered.
Tch...
I have to!!!
Then, with her mouth open, Hero Tina glanced briefly at the two humans in front of her.
Rena and Hero Claire, then she said firmly.
Hero Anna...!!!
I made her a tool!!
Tina's voice was now completely clear and firm, though on the other hand, her trembling voice tried to stay calm.
Hearing that, both humans could only wear shadowed faces.
Now, both of them lost their balance slightly and simultaneously muttered with trembling lips.
N-no...
I-impossible!!!
Hearing all that made Rena fall to her knees.
Brakk!!!!
Then, with a loud voice, Rena shouted.
What is wrong with you!!
With a sharp gaze while kneeling, Rena continued.
With the Headmaster!!!???
Her voice was loud!!!
As if that was what Rena had wanted to say from the start!!!
But on the other hand, it sounded like an outburst of emotion.
Because basically, Rena knew... that there must be a reason for everything—at least, that's what school had taught her.
Meanwhile, Hero Tina, who had lost her balance slightly, tried to steady herself again and kept her sharp gaze on Hero Claire...
Seeing and hearing the two humans in front of her, Hero Tina muttered, her left hand—which she had been holding back with her right—now reflexively covering her mouth.
I've started this...
I have to finish it...
Then Hero Tina looked at the two humans again, but this time with steady eyes, and thought to herself.
I!!
I can't hold it back anymore...
Hero Tina continued.
Hero Anna...
I made a false report about her...
That she was the one who ordered all of this!!
Those words truly came out of Hero Tina's mouth.
Clear....
No sign of lies.
Everything came out!!!
When those words came out, Hero Tina began to close her eyes...
Now her vision was completely dark, as if she wanted to be alone after saying that.
Meanwhile, Rena, hearing that, could only mutter various words under her breath.
Why!!
Are humans this evil??
What's the reason!!!
Are heroes really like this!!!
Hero Anna... didn't deserve this!!!
Then Hero Tina thought to herself.
Sorry, Anna...
I made a report that you were the one who caused all of this!!...
Meanwhile, Hero Claire, watching both humans with shadowed faces, concluded while directing her sharp gaze toward Tina.
So... you mean Anna was the one who told all the female heroes to retreat except herself—when in fact, she was the one representing the female heroes alongside the male heroes!!
Hearing that rendered the two humans speechless.
Both Rena, now even more shocked,
and Hero Tina, who could only freeze.
Finally, the three humans were truly at a point where everything could be resolved...
But... only if they all accepted it...
Then, with her magic book now appearing near her chest, Hero Tina, her eyes darting around, said.
That's right..
