“Mrow?!”

She was startled. Sabi Kokken had been startled. She had adjusted her aim to make sure that with her second blow she would hit Yasuri Mutsue’s head, then swung down her stick as a sword. The shock wave produced by the half-foot long stick should have raced down the desert and annihilated Yasuri Mutsue before he had a chance to block it. This was not at all difficult for Kokken. Her only concern was that with her lack of control, she might catch the denying girl next to him in the blast, but she only thought nonchalantly, Well, if I do, then that’s that, meow. There’s no point in worrying about it, meow.

She was unconcerned until the moment she launched her attack. She was the same even soon after. But then, Sabi Kokken was surprised. She was surprised that her attack was struck down before her very eyes, and by a single girl. And not just a girl, but a rather young girl. She was unlike Kokken, who despite her young appearance was over thirty. The girl genuinely appeared to be seven years of age. She was even younger than the denying girl.
