"This..." (a type of lyric)

You heard everything Luvia said.

You think her idea is indeed correct.

From her perspective, you are indeed an unobservable entity.

Under these circumstances, Luvia's ability to speak to Sakura Tohsaka like this already demonstrates considerable self-control.

However, this doesn't mean you lack the means to prove your existence.

You told Sakura Tohsaka about a solution.

She then relayed it to Luvia.

"what?"

Luvia looked at Sakura Tohsaka with a puzzled expression.

"You mean you want me to write down a number, and then you can guess what it is without seeing it directly?"

"Mmm!" Sakura Tohsaka nodded. "In that case, it proves that Mr. Ghost exists, right?!"

"..."

Luvia was reluctant to agree to this rather strange-sounding verification method.

But seeing Sakura Tohsaka's expectant look, she couldn't bear to refuse her stepsister.

After careful consideration, Luvia chose a compromise.

"Row."

"But let's make this clear first, if you can't guess it, don't keep pestering me to try other methods."

"Will not!"

"Okay, let's give it a try."

Luvia, with a skeptical attitude, began testing Sakura Tohsaka.

The result is obvious.

After writing down the numbers, Luvia pointed them at Sakura Tohsaka, whose eyes were closed.

[You, who understood this immediately, quickly relayed the numbers you saw to Sakura Tohsaka, allowing her to answer accurately.]

Once is a coincidence, twice is good luck.

But after three or four times, Luvia gradually realized that something seemed amiss.

[His adopted younger sister, Sakura Tohsaka, was indeed able to answer every number precisely.]

This means that what she said is true!

"This……"

Despite being born into a family of magicians, young Luvia was still somewhat surprised by this situation.

"Sakura, are there really ghosts around you?"

"Mmm~" Sakura Tohsaka nodded repeatedly, proving her success. "Luvia-neechan, you finally believe me?"

"You have to believe it whether you want to or not." Luvia looked somewhat embarrassed. "Otherwise, how do you explain what happened earlier?"

"By the way... he didn't hurt you, did he?"

“Mr. Ghost won’t hurt me.” Sakura Tohsaka smiled and shook her head. “He’s a very nice person!”

"And if it weren't for him... I might never have seen Sister Luvia again!"

"This……"

Luvia's expression gradually relaxed.

"So it was a good ghost after all? That's better."

"And according to you, I should thank him, right?"

“No, that’s not true!” Sakura Tohsaka waved her hand. “He said he’s the one who should be expressing gratitude.”

“‘Thank you for taking care of Sakura’—that’s what he said!”

"Eh?!"

Luvia became shy.

Did he really say that?

“Yes!” Sakura Tohsaka nodded. “Mr. Ghost thinks Sister Luvia is a good person.”

"Hmm... I think so too!"

Despite Luvia's aloof and unapproachable demeanor, she is actually quite easily moved.

Faced with the combined praise from her stepsister Sakura Tohsaka and the invisible Mr. Ghost, the young lady became increasingly embarrassed.

But she didn't want anyone to know how she felt, so she tossed her hair and hid it with a loud laugh.

"Hahahaha~"

"That's for sure."

"I am the future head of the Edfeldt family!"

"Yes, the future head of the family!" Sakura Tohsaka cheered.

However, she quickly quieted down as if she had heard something.

"What's wrong?" Luvia asked again, noticing something was amiss. "Did something happen again?"

"nothing."

Sakura Tohsaka lowered her voice slightly.

"Mr. Ghost wanted me to ask you if you could keep quiet about this?"

"..."

Luvia hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.

"Okay, I won't tell anyone!"

"real?!"

“Of course it’s true.” Luvia put her hands on her hips.

"Since you and he are both willing to tell me this kind of thing, how could I possibly betray you?"

"Besides, I don't want to make things so complicated... Of course, it's better not to say anything."

"so--"

Let's keep it as our shared secret.

A brighter light appeared in Sakura Tohsaka's eyes.

"Thank you, Sister Luvia!"

After discovering their 'shared secret,' Luvia and Sakura Tohsaka's relationship grew stronger.

They gradually became like sisters.

Although the former still frequently bosses the latter around, their attitude has noticeably improved.

People often see two little girls talking to something in an empty space, as if something exists there.

Of course, no one will raise any questions, and no one dares to raise any questions.

As the eldest daughter of the Edfeldt family, Luvia's actions are perfectly reasonable.

Nearly two years have passed just like that.

On this day, Luvia found Sakura Tohsaka.

"Sakura, pack your things."

"Huh? Why are we packing?"

"Because I need to visit a place, I have to go on a long trip."

Where is it?

"Clock Tower."

273. A Trip to the Clock Tower / Sakura Tohsaka's Little Thoughts / Vivian's Crying (4k)

"Eh?!"

Sakura Tohsaka looked at her stepsister with a puzzled expression.

"Clock Tower? What kind of place is that?"

"..."

Luvia's suspicious gaze fell on her stepsister, Sakura Tohsaka.

"Sakura, are you pretending to be confused?"

"If you were born into a family of magicians, you should at least know the name Clock Tower, right?"

“This…” Sakura Tohsaka gestured with her fingers, looking quite guilty.

"I'm sorry, Sister Luvia."

"but--"

“I really don’t know. My dad has never mentioned this place to me before.”

"..."

Luvia looked silently at Sakura Tohsaka in front of her—she knew she wasn't lying.

There was nothing this young lady could do but accept the reality that her adopted sister knew nothing about it.

She sighed, and then began to explain.
