章節 270: Why?

Yuhi quickly followed the scent and found her at an alleyway at the back of the store. She was standing in the center and right at her feet were several bodies. The men were not dead but Yuhi could see how severe their injuries were. 

"Sum-"

"Stay back. The blood."

His gaze fell on the particles of red that lingered in the air. Yuhi clenched his fist. It was only four words and yet he sensed the loneliness behind them. 

Once again he has to see her lonely back. How many times did he see this scene in the past? He is tired of this. Why does she have to go through this again? The pain of being strong, for having inhumane strength. A pain only those who stand at the top will understand.

Sumire's inhumane strength is most likely to do with her abilities, at first Yuhi thought that. But after a bit of research he learned that was not the case. At some point the girl became physically stronger than the average person.
