The boy raised his arms, irritated by the situation. Under Adam's mocking laughter, he explained everything to Shiro, who slowly calmed down.
"So, you're telling me your ghost big bro, who just reached the second tier instantly, defeated me?" She asked in disbelief with narrowed eyes, biting her lips.
"Basically... Yes," he answered, fiddling with his fingers in guilt. Why was he always put on the spot by his brother?
"I understand. That's why I was assigned to your group..." Shiro responded, the metallic taste of blood feeling her mouth as she pierced her lower lips.
She realised why Thurin appointed her as the supervisor of this particular group. He had known about the ghost all along and indeed wanted her to tone her arrogance down using him.
