However, after hearing what her older sister said, Kyoka naturally left quickly, feeling as if she had been liberated, and hurriedly ran out.
Soon, the space, which had seemed a little cramped due to the large number of people who had arrived, was spacious again, leaving only Seven Sins and Akane.
"Phew, the area's finally cleared out, Seven Sins-chan. Can I take a look now~"
"Whether there's anyone around or not doesn't matter, and if no one's around, I'd be even less likely to give it to you. You... really hate its owner, right?"
Upon hearing this renewed inquiry, Seven Sins responded once again with a faint reply, as if he were merely stating something.
But you could tell from her tightly clenched little hands and the cold sweat on her forehead that she was actually quite nervous.
Although she felt the possibility was extremely small, a bad feeling kept nagging at her...
"Of course~ After all, she's the murderer who killed my parents~"
Sure enough, my premonition was spot on.
She never used any ability to learn about other people's past.
But based on the way Teacher Qian looked at her before, and that inexplicable hostility, she had some suspicions.
She didn't know the other person, and the other person's gaze wasn't strange when they first looked at her.
It was only after Irisviel and Saber appeared that Akane's expression began to turn strange.
The only possibility...
So now you know she's an elf.
Whether the other party hates her or hates all elves, it's not a good thing.
However, during this period, she never confronted Ms. Qian about the truth, and their relationship remained fairly good.
She felt that Ms. Qian wasn't the kind of person who judged people solely by their race, so it wouldn't matter if she knew her identity.
But today, it seems that's not the case.
"...Is it that ice sprite?"
"Yes, her identifying name was 'Hermit,' and she killed my parents in a plane crash six years ago."
"But I don't feel like she's the kind of elf who would attack humans..."
"But she used a 'spacequake,' which happened to destroy my parents' plane. Does that count as 'accidental killing'?"
"..."
Sigh, it just feels like this is incredibly troublesome.
"Um, Ms. Akane, is there something you intend to do to her?"
"I can't really say what I want to do. After all, I'm just a human. What can I do to a high and mighty elf? It's just..."
"only?"
"This doll is something she values very much, right? Wouldn't she be very sad if it were destroyed?"
"..."
Looking at the silver-haired woman in front of him, whose face had a gentle and bright smile but whose eyes were filled with icy coldness, Seven Sins felt as if his head had grown even bigger.
Ugh, the worst thing that's ever happened has occurred.
(The old man's funeral finally ended at noon today. Ten days of banquets were indeed quite long, but at around ninety years old, he passed away peacefully. Updates should be faster from now on. Trying to start updating again.)
(It seems many people have misunderstood Akane's character. Take a look at the later images; there's nothing wrong with her. She hasn't turned evil.)

"So why did you come looking for me? We didn't cause what happened today, did we?"
After leaving the Izumi family, Byakuya and the others arrived at a relatively secluded corner and began their conversation.
Although they said they were going to talk about it, Bai Ye didn't really feel there was anything to discuss.
I'm guessing I'll be taking the blame again, and then getting some lectures or something.
"Yes, we know, but since the other party has already contacted you, we still wanted to ask you for more information."
"As expected, it's the same again. But if you ask me, I don't know anything. That child is just a simple and introverted girl, and she didn't mean to cause trouble. If you want to be careful, then be careful yourselves. It has little to do with us."
Upon hearing Alice's answer, Bai Ye also showed a "I knew it" expression and rolled his eyes.
Actually, it wasn't that Alice and the others were specifically targeting elves; she was just assigned to be in charge of security here.
After all, the Einzbern family, whether in the original work or here, probably has a very high sense of "justice," or to put it more broadly, they want to save humanity.
The elves must have put immense pressure on the Clock Tower, so they probably want to get as much information about the elves as possible.
Of course, this is only for understanding purposes; it doesn't mean that we should actually attack the spirits.
After all, the elves' formidable strength is undeniable, and their sorcerer marshal has recently been involved in that kind of incident...
Regardless of whether they actually died, even if they didn't, the Clock Tower wouldn't dare to take any action against the elves now.
If the elves were to launch a preemptive attack on humans, they probably wouldn't take any action unless it involved a large-scale massacre.
People like Yoshino will definitely be ignored as much as possible.
Therefore, whatever they do has little to do with Bai Ye.
"We don't need you to tell us that. We never intended to do anything to the elves. It's just that the ice elf... might be related to the deaths of the Izumi family's parents."
After pondering for a while, Alice suddenly blurted out those words.
Even Bai Ye, who was listening, couldn't help but frown.
It wasn't out of surprise, because... he already knew about it.
Actually, he had sensed it from the first time he met Qian.
Although Sister Qian always appeared gentle, her gaze towards him had always been somewhat strange.
It wasn't a sweet love story; instead, it carried some negative emotions.
Hostility, hatred, even murderous intent...
Of course, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but it was certainly not a friendly thing to do.
Previously, he didn't quite understand, thinking it was just a simple case of being wary of strangers.
And over time, it did indeed fade a lot.
Now, there is almost no hostility left.
But after the Seven Deadly Sins arrived, her emotions seemed to undergo a subtle change.
I have a feeling that from time to time, that past hostility is transferred to the Seven Sins.
As for the reason, he actually knew it without using his ability, because he had heard Qian say once that her parents died from a "spacequake".
It wasn't like this from the beginning, but rather after Alice arrived...
It was probably Alice who told her about the Seven Sins' identity.
...Sigh, I really want to beat up this unmarried "wife"!
Every time she shows up, she has to cause some trouble.
Whether it's Seven Sins or Yoshino, it's all her doing to cause trouble.
But what angered him even more wasn't those things, but what was happening now...
"Eh?!"
What is she saying in front of this child?!
After hearing a surprised exclamation from around the corner, Bai Ye couldn't help but rub his forehead and mutter a headache-inducing complaint.
"Hey, just say it already!"
"There's no way this can be kept secret forever, and Ms. Qian has already told me about it, asking me to find an opportunity to tell her."
“Irisviel is right. I don’t know how much Mr. Night wants to protect children, but there are some things that people involved should know. When I was her age, I was almost ready to pull the sword out of the stone. Didn’t you complain before that my ideas were naive? Your ideas now aren’t very mature either.”
"...Alright, there's nothing I can do about that then~"
But after hearing their words, especially Saber's seemingly sarcastic remarks, Bai Ye shook his head, both amused and exasperated.
It seems Saber is still quite bothered by his previous comments that criticized her.
At first, I was probably caught off guard by his question and didn't know how to refute it, but now that I've figured it out, I seem to have recovered a lot, and now I even seem to be teasing him with a bit of pride.
Of course, the focus right now isn't on them, but on the girl standing to the side.
"What are you talking about? Why are you bringing up my parents' deaths? Do you know anything unusual?"
"Kyoka-chan, don't be so nervous, we'll explain everything to you properly."
Seeing the twin-tailed girl in front of him who had run out after being discovered and seemed to want to interrogate them, Bai Ye waved his hand with a wry smile and tried to persuade her.
They originally thought she was inside, so they planned to come out and talk to her, but the little one quickly followed them over.
Therefore, Bai Ye was careful to be tactful when he spoke and did not say anything unusual.
But unexpectedly, Alice exposed it right away...
Oh well, since Sister Qian herself has agreed, there's nothing we can do about it.
"Explain yourself! Didn't my parents die in a plane crash?! How could they be related to that 'Ice Sprite'? You... um?!"
"Explaining it with actions would surely make it clearer."
Kyoka was naturally in a state of complete excitement and confusion. As an ordinary young girl, hearing that there was a special reason for her parents' death and that there were some supernatural elements involved would naturally cause her confusion.
However, explaining it slowly would be too troublesome, so Saber used the simplest method.
She changed out of her black suit and into a set of silver-blue armor, holding a longsword in her hand!
Isn't this what "King Arthur" looks like in the illustration?
She really turned out like this?!
What on earth is going on?!
"Well, to put it simply, some things in novels are based on reality; we're not exactly ordinary people, after all~"
