Serious chapter.
Tsumugu stays inside her room as usual, and Iwato is relaxing with Karen at the living room. Then, the intercom rang.
[Ah! Should I go?]
For example, she might say 『What's this!? Is this the bomb to kill Master!?』 to the deliveryman. As expected, he wanted to believe that she wouldn't.
[Well, it's just an unknown middle school girl. It sure is scary. I wonder if this is the new type of fraud?]
A red light covered the lock, and upon seeing that, Iwato understood that the door was unlocked with a superpower.
Iwato explained to Tsumugu and Karen about Ayame at the living room.
Hence, Ayame did the explaining, but--
[Then, Iwato-sama said this! 『Aah, what a lovely girl. Yosh, I'll persist until I get a hit on this vending machine for your sake--』]
[Understood! I entrust the role of beating Master to you!]
Karen and Tsumugu stand up after saying so, and Ayame stand ready instinctively.
[Un...if Nii-san say so]
Tsumugu sat down obediently by Iwato's words, and Karen who saw that, sat down unwillingly while puffing her cheeks.
[L-Lo-Loli!? Isn't your sister more Loli than me!?]
That's right. Although she didn't to describe it, the figure is quite something compared to Karen. Despite the fact that Ayame has almost the same height as Karen, one part, just one part of her didn't grow at all.
Even Ayame herself used that excuse to escape from reality--but Tsumugu broke those illusions with her words.
[A-As expected of Black Coffin-sama's sister......What a magnificent verbal attack]
Then, this time, Karen inclined her head with a curious face and speaks.
[But Master, you're a key figure that the humanoid Unknown targeted, and above all, your soul is an unbelievably huge coffin, isn't it? I really thought that you're him, though......]
Exactly what she said.
With that much evidence, the formula of Iwato = King of Black Coffin is getting completed. And Ayame who heard that, was convinced that her intuition was half right even though she don't know about the details.
--However, Iwato has a way to deny all of those.
[Then, I'll ask you. Why the pure white hair King of Black Coffin became a black hair like me? The fact that I don't have a superpower is an absolute fact that the whole world knows]
By those words, Karen and Ayame were at a loss for words.
Therefore, Iwato thrusts the fact once again to the two, but Ayame speaks before Karen.
[T-That's right! Iwato-sama used the black dye shampoo that you made to conceal your white hair! The Absolute, and above all, the Number One. If you have that much power, you can do such thing easily with your connections, isn't it!?]
Karen's reason was [There's no way that Master will lie about shampoo].
At any rate, it's true that Iwato has been collecting bleaches around the world for a time like this, and Iwato said this while grinning as he gave those to the two.
[Time to break all those flags. Why don't you use all of those to see whether I dyed my hair or not?]
--Result.
Karen and Ayame felt down to the extent that they can't say anything.
However, even though they now know his hair is genuine, Ayame has an evidence that proofs Iwato to be Black Pandora.
[B-But, that blue light is surely that person's ability! In addition, that face! I have no doubt that you're the very same person!]
That's right. Although the King of Black Coffin neither have curly hair nor wearing glasses, still, Iwato's face has the look of the King of Black Coffin. And also, the cloak he wore at that time looked familiar. In addition, the ble light.
Although Karen and Ayame inclined their head to the side by his actions, Iwato returned with the cloak after a while.
Anyone would want to say that upon seeing such a overpowered cloak.
However, those were very important for Ayame, and she shouted so before she knew it.
She didn't meant [His ability is not to that extent], but that ability itself is for sure SSS rank. Ayame who was convinced so, showed a greater shock, and tried to ask Tsumugu.
She--Tsumugu knew it.
After, Ayame left the house with teary eyes, and Karen fell to sleep while having an indescribable expression.
Iwato exhales without looking back, and he starts speaking in the same way as monologue.
[I might...have did something bad on that girl......]
Thinking back upon a few hours ago, Ayame who became teary eyes upon facing Iwato's killing intent.
And at the same time, a voice came from his back.
[I...have already...forgive Nii-san]
--Already forgive.
Those hands were sullied with blood, and tainted it in black.
The figure of a little girl with white hair and blue eyes shaking in anger, and the figure of a boy with white hair and blue eyes standing lethargically without thinking what's in front.
Upon hearing those words, Tsumugu cast down her eyes sadly.

Somehow, questions on Iwato's past will increase. About Iwato and Tsumugu's past, it's planned to be on the 6th or 7th arc.
