"Wha-...What?"
Fang Li’s words made Mui startled.
However, at the sa ti a sowhat flurried mood erged from Mui’s heart.
This was the sort of feeling a person would feel if soone hit their deepest troubleso secret spot on.
Seeing the current, Mui, Fang Li’s look glittered. Shortly afterwards, Fang Li then heartlessly exposed the feelings hidden deep within Mui’s deepest depths.
"Do you... want to make turn you back into a human?"
At this mont, the heart of Mui trembled.
Yes.
This was the only reason why Mui would look for Fang Li. Perhaps, even Mui herself hadn’t realised this?
Actually just like Ikoma, this young girl also wished that she could change back into a human.
Therefore, after seeing Ikoma’s transformation as a result of Fang Li with her own eyes, the hope within her young heart couldn’t bear but be ignited.
This hope, although she tried to suppress it before, it didn’t an that it no longer existed.
This hope was what caused Mui’s subconscious actions to look for Fang Li.
Only, Mui was not willing to acknowledge this.
It is not that she didn’t want to acknowledge it but rather that it was impossible.
"It’s definitely no good!"
With that shout Mui almost uncontrollably took a step back away from Fang Li, her eyes staring tightly at him.
"I cannot turn back into a human!"
These words were to Fang Li but it was more of a warning to herself.
"If I change back into a human, my strength will definitely drop and I won’t be able to fight Kabane anymore!"
"If I can’t fight with the Kabane, I’ll be useless!"
"When the ti cos, I’m absolutely going to be thrown away!"
Mui’s sound resounded throughout the surroundings.
Until this ti, Mui suddenly realised. She... had unknowingly shouted at Fang Li unexpectedly.
"Th-... That..." Mui felt sowhat helpless.
Fang Li, did not display any surprise from start to finish, seeing her helplessness his eyes looked pensive.
At once, Fang Li opened his mouth.
"To be honest, I know that you didn’t volunatirly turn into a Kabaneri."
Fang Li’s words, caused Mui to be startled, with her imdiately replying while shaking her head, "No, I turned into a Kabaneri willingly..."
Mui’s words were clear.
The reason behind her turning into a Kabaneri was not because of a situation like Ikoma where he was bitten and turned into one to save his own life by stemming the virus from invading his head. Ikoma was compelled to do it because he had no choice.
In fact, Mui was willingly bitten by a Kabane.
Therefore, Mui’s transformation was voluntary.
But, Fang Li said, "Is that what you call voluntarily?" Fang Li curled his lip and smiled, saying, "You only acted because of the desire of other people following their anticipation to turn into a Kabaneri, that is not volunatary..."
Mui tightened her fist as she heard that.
"You obviously don’t know anything....", Mui looked at Fang Li tightly and opened her mouth to whisper in a low voice, "Obviously don’t know anything.... but yet you act like you understand so much..."
"...... What don’t I know?" Fang Li stared eye to eye with Mui and quipped, "How would you know that I don’t know? Perhaps I know ever more than you do?"
Leaving behind those few words, Fang Li then as if unwilling to pay attention to Mui again, walked in the direction of the cavern.
Seeing that, Mui’s cute and charming face was filled with an intense struggle before as if finally giving up, she followed Fang Li and moved to the cavern.
The cavern that Fang Li and Mui found seed to be an abandoned mine.
Therefore, in the cavern there was not only a railway line for transportation but it was also illuminated with lights.
Perhaps it was only because of the Kabane that this mine tunnel was discarded, all the appliances were covered in dust and only the light seed to still work as before.
Therefore, Fang Li turned on the lights, causing the whole cavern to be filled with a warm light.
Then, Fang Li casually found a place to sit down next to Mui.
Perhaps it was because Mui was still angry from before, but she just sat opposite Fang Li and did not say anything looking like a child throwing a tantrum.
Looking at such a Mui, Fang Li couldn’t help but laught despite trying to hold it in, taking out a water bottle and biscuit from his leg bag asking her, "Do you want so?"
"No I don’t." Mui instinctively replied but followed up and asked, "You obviously know that I’m a Kabaneri that only needs to drink blood..."
"Does that an I shouldn’t ask sothing I know the answer to already?" Fang Li leisurely tore the biscuit and sipped so water, while saying,"To know that the opposite party doesn’t need it, you have to ask them, that’s what you call ettiquete."
"I don’t understand those things..." said Mui depressedly, "I was only taught to fight with the Kabane."
"Is that so?" Fang Li seed to careless ask, "Didn’t you parents teach you?"
Mui was silent.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.
In this era where the man eating monsters ran amuck, asking about another person’s family mber in such a situation. Even a fool would know the answer to that...their family was obviously long gone...
But Fang Li, was not a fool, since he was familiar with the plot of the story, he clearly knew Mui’s family’s circumstances and knew not to contact this forbidden area right?
But, Fang Li still intentionally pursued the question, "What’s wrong? Did your parents really not teach you?"
"...... Maybe they did, but I forgot." Mui buried her face in her knees so he couldn’t see her current expression, only her soft sound ca out, "That was a very long ti ago...."
"Is that so?" Fang Li shrugged, suddenly asking, "In other words, don’t you have any family mbers now?"
"No I do." Mui direct denied it saying, "I-I still have Ani sama"
When Mui replied like that, she didn’t know that Fang Li’s look was not only not curious about this "Ani sama" at all but even turned into one that was amused.
"Ani-sama." Fang Li ate his biscuit and leisurely asked, "Is that your blood related elder brother?
"No we’re not related." Mui raised her head to look at Fang Li, her look was quite satisfied, "Ani sama is very good to , this...this is enough...."
"Very good to you?" Fang Li couldn’t help but smile.
This ti, his whole expression including his smile turned into a mocking face.
This type of mocking face, even Mui who was now wise in the ways of the world could understand.
Therefore, in Mui’s heart an intense emotion erged, "Why are you smiling?!"
