The Shikigami behind me was wearing a white kimono, and it’s definitely impossible to not call her cute.
Even though that’s the case, she should have been a Shikigami which do not possess any self-awareness at all, so how…
“Master, why are you looking at me so strangely?”
The Shikigami girl asked this while tilting her head slightly to the side.
So cute. I can’t look at her in the eyes at all.
“Wait a minute, what’s your name?”
The reason why I asked this was because, in my eyes, the name above her head was still【Empress】.
“Me? I don’t know either~”
“With an answer like that, you’re not supposed to say it with a smile, right?”
“Then, master, please give me a name.”
“Giving a name, that isn’t my specialty… Wait a minute! Why did the topic suddenly changed to giving a name? Shouldn’t the current problem be about your sudden gain of self-awareness?”
“Although I’m not really sure, in my memories, there’s this vague explanation.【After killing a certain number of enemies, borrow the soul fragments of others to construct a new soul. 】~”
“Is that so… But you only threw a bottle of liquid nitrogen earlier… Or was the number of enemies you killed in your previous battles counted in as well?”
“Master?”
Just when I was in deep thought, she actually walked right in front of me, and her eyes which were filled with curiosity were staring right at me.
Unconsciously, I took a step back.
“Master, do you hate me? Did I do something wrong?”
“No, it’s not that. I was just a little startled when you suddenly approached this close to me.”
“Is that so? That’s good to hear~ If master is angry and decides to dismantle me, I will be really lonely.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t dismantle you, and, I don’t know how to either. Speaking of which, did you only become self-aware earlier, or did you have it all along?”
“I only became self-aware earlier.”
“What about memories?”
“Other than the memories about the explanation earlier, there’s nothing else.”
“Battle style?”
“Battle?”
“……”
Looking at her skeptical expression, I helplessly shook my head.
And then, I used the earlier mind sync, and commanded her to attack the wall beside us.
With vigorous strides, she charged over, and struck the metallic wall with a punch.
After a loud bang, the entire wall caved in, and a large hole appeared.
“Un? What just happened to me?”
The Shikigami looked skeptically at her own hand, and then, looked at the wall.
