The die was cast, and for Haru, there was no going back.
The information he shared stunned them into silence. They wanted to believe he was joking, but his resolute expression suggested otherwise.
As the realization sank in, the calm they felt due to Haru's presence quickly gave way to wariness and doubt. They all began to stare at each other with suspicion, except for Miyuu, who remained emotionless, leaving her thoughts unreadable.
"I-I…." Orimura stammered, struggling to find words as she looked at Kuga with pained eyes.
Kuga mirrored her expression, feeling the same turmoil.
Kuga looked troubled as he asked Haru, "Y-You… do you have any idea what that means?"
Meanwhile, Nishimiya reacted with panic. "Our powers are also sealed, and there is an imposter?! I-Isn't this the worst? No… No!! I-I am not the imposter…"
